1391 TopicsLost Messages from GMAIL with POP
I hope this is the community I can get feedback from technical support individuals. My Outlook 2016 is connecting to the GMAIL server and is configured properly. It has been downloading all my messages until a few days and weeks ago. Now it seems very selective and I have no clue about its behavior. When I launch it, it connects with POP and tells me it is downloading 70+ or 50+ messages but only a handful appear in my Inbox. I have searched high and low for the remainder, Junk, Deleted et al. Nothing. Where could these messages be located? Any ideas will be appreciated. Thank you.13Views0likes1CommentTeams Meeting Add-in Not Appearing in Outlook
The computer was rebuilt from scratch and reinstalled with a clean operating system. After the installation, all required Microsoft applications (Outlook, Teams, etc.) were installed and the user successfully signed in. However, the Teams Meeting add-in is not appearing in Outlook as expected. Within the Outlook Calendar/Appointment window, only the Skype Meeting option is visible, while the Teams Meeting option is completely missing. Checks Performed: New Microsoft Teams is installed and functioning properly. Outlook and Teams are both signed in with the user account. Outlook COM Add-ins have been checked. Disabled Items have been checked. Teams Meeting Add-in for Microsoft Office has been verified. Outlook updates have been checked. Microsoft Teams has been reinstalled. Outlook profile has been verified. Exchange mailbox is active and functioning correctly. Despite all the above checks, the Teams Meeting option is still not displayed in the Outlook Calendar/Appointment window, and only the Skype Meeting integration is available. Expected Behavior: The Teams Meeting button should be available within the Outlook Calendar/Appointment window, allowing users to create Teams meetings and automatically generate Teams meeting invitations. Request: Please why the Teams Meeting Add-in is not being loaded into Outlook and provide assistance in restoring the Teams Meeting functionality within the Outlook Calendar/Appointment interface. Attachments: Screenshot showing the current issue (Teams Meeting button missing) Screenshot showing the expected behavior (Teams Meeting button visible)4.2KViews7likes14CommentsOutlook doesn't show the picture correctly in mail body, AGAIN
Original Post: Outlook Signature Images Missing / Not Displaying Correctly | Microsoft Community Hub This problem was temporarily solved at the 9th of June, but after Office 2016 security update package installed this week, it appeared again.6Views0likes0CommentsShared Calendars No Longer Visible
For years, I've shared Outlook calendars between my Outlook accounts and with my husband's, without any issues. However, since mid-June the shared calendars have disappeared for no apparent reason. The sharing permissions are still in place, but the calendars are no longer visible or available to add on Android, in the Outlook desktop app, or on Outlook on the web. I've spent hours Googling and tried all the usual troubleshooting steps, but nothing has worked! As a workaround, I now have to invite all @outlook.com accounts to calendar events just so everyone can see them and avoid double bookings. Has anyone come across this before and found a fix that isn't one of the standard "how-to" suggestions? Note: these are personal paid Microsoft accounts.116Views0likes3CommentsHow to Recall an Email in Outlook

I will be grateful for your advice...80Views0likes4CommentsOutlook icon in taskbar can start two outlook.exe processes
When the startup icon for Outlook Classic is pinned to the taskbar (laptop, Windows 11), a double-click can start two Outlook processes. I have been unable to convince my lovely wife that a taskbar icon should be clicked only once, but her trigger finger is too itchy. So we unpinned the icon from her taskbar and now she starts Outlook from a desktop shortcut (which is double-clicked). The problem: When Outlook is not running and the taskbar icon is clicked, it begins to start Outlook. But if the user double-clicks very quickly, the first process is not yet exposed and a second process starts. The window opens for the first process, and no window opens for the second process. Then, when the Outlook window is closed, it only exits the first process, and the second process is still active with no window. Later, the user clicks the taskbar icon to start Outlook again (because no window is visible), but no window will open (because a process is already active). The workaround is to open task manager and kill the bogus process (or logout or reboot), but my lovely wife doesn't know what the task manager is, so she asks me. Which is fine, I am happy to be my wife's workaround, but the real problem is that Windows is starting two Outlook processes. In some cases this causes problems with IMAP synchronization, and then my wife doesn't realize that a sent email is stuck in the outbox forever, waiting for a sync that never happens. In fact, my wife is a pretty capable Outlook user, but not when Windows can't manage M365 applications that should not be running twice.71Views1like3CommentsSearch Folder Creation Issue
I've been using the new version of Outlook for around a year and a half without any issues. However, today I've noticed that I can no longer create Search Folders that filter emails by category. When I go through the process, I can name the Search Folder and choose the folder type without any problems. The issue occurs when I try to select the email categories. The category list appears, but clicking on a category doesn't actually select it. Because of this, I get the message "Select at least one category", even though I've clicked on one. This happens in both the desktop app and Outlook on the web, so it doesn't seem to be specific to my laptop. Is anyone else aware of this issue, and if so are there any workarounds?92Views1like2Comments
