Hi all,

This morning I upgraded my Windows XP SP2 system that had Office 2003
(Italian language) to Office 2007 (English or multi-language?)

During the installation I said to keep the previous Office 2003
installation except Outlook (because otherwise I could not install
the
2007 version).
On my previous system I had 3 .PST files (an archive one, and 2
"personal folders"), one of the is huge (3.91GB).

I read on another post that .PST file bigger than 2Gb can be a
problem. It was not for me with Outllok 2003. In fact I doubt that
the
problem I have is related with the big file.
BTW, why doesn't Outlook recognize that the file is becoming to big
and don't signal it and, even better, run a wizard to split the data
in 2 files?


The installation was fast.
After the upgrade I opened Outlook and it upgraded.
I had the problem that one of the .PST was not in the system, so I
easily added it.


Now I still have 3 major problems:
1)
Send/Receive does NOT work. When I click it, it says "Outlook cannot
start because a data file to send and receive mail annot be found. To
add a data file, such as a personal folder file, double.click the
Mail
Icon in the Windows Control Panel" I try to do that and my 3 .pst are
there.

Furthermore, if I click of receiving email just from an account
(Send/
Receive - "My account" Only) I received 2 messages on receiveing and
sending: "...reported error (0x8004010F): "The operation failed. An
object cannot be found." :-(

If I click on "Tools - Account Setting" I can see all my 7 accounts
and I can change them if I want. Testing them ("Testing account
Setting..." button) they work. However when I click "Change Folder"
button and I select a folder and click OK I get the message: "An
unknown error occurred, error code: 0x8000ffff"


2)
The rules (I had more that 30) has not been imported. If I click
on "Tools - Rules and Alerts" the dialog that show up has no rule in
the "E.amil Rules" tab. Even worse every button is GRAY (Even "New
Rules..." and "Option"). I want my rules back!


3)
Activesync doesn't work. I upgraded from 4.1 to 4.5 trying to solve
the problem. but still has problems: red exclamation mark. It says
"Calendar, Contact, Tasks, Notes: attention required". And there is
not really anything I can do about that.


I want to get back to Outllok 2003 or better to make it work. I can
do
some registry editing if necessary but I need some help!!!!

Thank you in advance,


-Cris

A pst larger than 2gb, created in unicode, the default format for
OL2003/2007 is not a problem
It would be a problem if created in an earlier version, where there is a
size limitation.

With the mail applet create a new profile, add your accounts & data files.
See if that helps

Doesn't exist a way to save me from the pain to manually reconfigure
all the rules and the account setting?
What would happend if I disinstall the 2007 and install again the
2003?

Nothing much as an uninstall doesnt remove the profile, nor does it effect
the pst files, so if the profile is corrupt it will still be corrupt

Where is the profile stored ? In the registry? What is the key ?
Is the profile update/rebuild during the upgrade process?

-Cris

The profile is stored in the registry
Copying a profile/settings will continue any corruption
The profile is not rebuilt as such during any upgrade.
Upgrading 2003 to 2007 can, from what has been posted, lead to a corrupt
profile

Perhaps try a new Profile, set prompt for Profile, and add a single account
to check how OL performs with that

I solved problem 1 and 2 creating another profile and manually adding
the email accounts.
The rules showed up automatically. I just have to delete 2 rules.
Tonight I try to solve problem 3. I was trying to syncronize by IR but
I saw 183 events in the calendar to syncronize. It looked like it
recognizes all events as different.
