Like a lot of software these days, you'll need to have at least Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard to use all the features in the Office 2011 suite. Interface The Ribbon has returned as the unifying interface component across all the apps in the suite. Though Microsoft has met some resistance from users on both platforms for this particular feature, we think once people get used to the flexibility of the Ribbon it will save them an enormous amount of time. Rather than digging through menus and scrolling through palettes, the Ribbon uses tabs that display commands relevant to a given task. As an example, clicking on an image in Word, PowerPoint, or Excel will change the tabs in the Ribbon to image-related tasks so you can make changes quickly without having to search through menus. If you still just can't get used to the Ribbon, in Office 2011 for Mac, you can turn it off and use regular drop-down menus (an option that several Windows users probably wish they had). Still, we recommend taking the time to learn the Ribbon as an investment that will save you more time in the future.

These are the main email database files that the Outlook client stores on local computer hard drives. It turns out that Exchange (which is what you're talking to when talking to Office 365) can be configured to create a similar data file, the.OST file, which also stores a local copy of your email data.

This will display the email accounts dialog. You need to make two changes (or at least make sure your settings match). First, be sure the Used Cached Exchange Mode is checked. Checking this means Outlook stores a copy of your Exchange data in a local.OST file. Next, be sure the slider is all the way to the right, so 'Mail to keep offline' is set to All. Click Next and Finish to close out of the dialog. Now, this is important: Don't quit Outlook, and keep it open and running overnight to download all of your data.

Cocoa magic aside, drag and drop in Carbon applications always works more intuitively. As a result, Outlook 2011 takes a step back when it comes to drag and drop. You don’t have to do the click-and-hold delay when dragging text, and dragging an attachment into a background Entourage mail window is a far simpler experience than doing so with Outlook 2011, where I had to bring the message window to the foreground and then drag the file from a Finder window in the background to the message window. I’ve seen the same behavior in other Cocoa applications—Cocoa just doesn’t do drag and drop as well as Carbon. I tested Outlook 2011 in the same configuration that I use Entourage on a daily basis: six IMAP accounts total, with three accounts using SSL for both send and receive, two Gmail accounts, and one Exchange 2007 Exchange Web Services (EWS) account. Back-end servers run the gamut from MobileMe, Kerio, and Communigate Pro to Exchange 2007. I have over 70 IMAP rules, a handful of SMTP and Exchange rules, and too many Mailing List Manager rules to count.

However, Outlook 2011 is better at handling received e-mail than Entourage, which had a tendency to do bad things to HTML e-mail when you forwarded it. Outlook 2011 finally lets you insert proper hyperlinks into an HTML message, something that Entourage couldn’t do unless you used Word as your editor. (I didn’t test to see if [ ] can be used as your e-mail editor.) For attachments, Outlook 2011 can use Mac OS X’s Quick Look function to easily preview the attachment contents. While Outlook 2011 does have an updated junk mail filter, it’s still the same kind of filter as that in Entourage.

Note the size of the database. When you create an Outlook identity, hard disk space is allocated for the data that the identity receives as you work. When you add and delete messages, appointments, tasks, and notes, the database can develop wasted space. Step 3: Discover and back up the current identity To back up your identity, follow these steps: In the Finder, click Go, and then click Home. Open the Documents folder. Open the Microsoft User Data folder.

Then select 'Files in mbox format' and click continue. Then select desktop, and the folder you dragged all of your Outlook folders into. Hit 'Choose.' Mac Mail will import all of these folders, and when it's finished, will tell you that they are under the folder labeled 'imports' in Mac Mail, and you just have to move all your subfolders back into their main folders. Like I said, it takes a little while longer than I would like, but it worked for me and now I have all my old mail from Outlook in Mac Mail. Hope that helps (and that I explained right)!

The.olm file can then be imported to Outlook to view, and, if desired, move the information to different set of folders, including any that are part of another email account (as long as the account is set up in Outlook and has enough available space). If you are exporting and importing because you are leaving CUMC, also be sure to when it expires to avoid getting errors when Outlook tries to connect.

The information you posted lead me to the location of the Outlook 2011 identity file. I was able to go into Time Machine and replace the data folder with one a few days before I had the problem. I did have to let the system rebuild the database, which was automatic and when it had rebuilt the database, my Outlook was back on line.

Importing from other programs was similarly pain-free. I also tried dragging a few thousand messages that existed only as.eml files into a folder in Outlook 2011; it took a while, but they all imported correctly. The only caveat about importing is that if the Entourage Database Daemon is not running, the Entourage import may fail. I did not test.pst file imports.
