1.Why doesn't Outlook 2003 synchronize offline folders without r
Outlook is running. You must not have worked with Offline folders recently.
In earlier versions of Outlook, an offline folder (.ost) is created manually
during the Exchange mail service configuration. The offline folder then
duplicates your mailbox on the Exchange server to this offline copy of your
mailbox. The offline copy of your mailbox synchronizes with the Exchange
mailbox anytime you are connected to the Exchange server. When you open
Outlook, without the Exchange connection available (offline), then it opens
in the offline mode and you see your email folders just as they were at the
last online synchronization.
In Outlook 2003, MS added a feature called Mailbox caching. It performs a
similar function by running your Outlook viewing your cached folders which it
synchronizes to the Exchange mailbox. This is different from the previous
versions in that you are always looking at the cached (local copy) mailbox
whether online or offline. I have found there are problems using the cached
mode in that there are delays associated with the realtime synchronization of
the Exchange mailbox and the local cached mailbox. With caching, you are
never looking directly at your Exchange mailbox in real time.
The offline features of previous versions are still available in OL2003 and
you set them up the same way as before. When caching is turned off and OL is
connected to the Exchange server, you should see your Exchange mailbox in
real time and the offline folders should synchronize during send/recieve and
exiting so that the local copy of the mailbox is available to OL during
offline sessions. Unfortunately this doesn't seem to work correctly in OL
2003. The offline files look like they are synchronizing when OL is online,
but when OL is opened offline, the mailbox folders are empty.

2.Calendar does not fully synchronize to offline folder
When I synchronize my exchange mailbox to my offline
folder (outlook.ost), then connect to Outlook 200 offline,
my meetings are not present in my calendar folder.
I have over 600 items in my calendar , however only 89
items are shown to have been synchronized to the offline
folder.
I've toyed with a few settings and performed an Office
2000 repair. No luck.
Someone please help me!
3.Synchronizing local calendar folder (PST) with Exchange folder
I have a local PST file for my Outlook 2003.
I schedule meetings in the local calendar folder.
I need this information to be available for my colleagues in the office,
that are using an Exchange server.
How can I automatically publish this information?
When I connect, people can't see this information.
Thanks.
4.System Offline - Outlook Hangs - Synchronizing Folders
Office 2007 Ultimate
XP Pro SP3
I had an Internet connectivity problem and had to take my computer offline. When I started Outlook
I got a message from the tray icon saying Outlook could not reach the server and would be working
offline. Then it turned into a different icon and the mouse over tip says "Microsoft Outlook is
synchronizing folders."
Outlook is "Not Responding". The status bar says "Send/Receive Status 60%".
Is there a problem using Outlook offline? Why does it say it is synchronizing folders when there
isn't anything to synchronize them with?
If I kill it it just reopens and hangs again.
Is there a way open Outlook without an add-ins getting loaded (in case this is a add-in problem)?
5.Offline/Online Folders - Synchronizing (Contacts)
For some reason, I have 2900 contacts in my Offline
folder but only 250 of them appear in the online folder.
Of course, I want them all in the online folder so my PDA
sychs properly and so I can access them when logging in
remotely.
How do I move the contacts from the offline to the online
folder? I am afraid that by synch'ing the two folders,
the online foler will overwrite the offline one, and I'll
lose all those contacts.
I am using XP, Outlook 2003.
Thanks.
