Outlook for Mac 2011 is the mail application for Mac users. It allows users to send and receives emails as well as it allows to create notes, tasks and to store emails data. The stored data are in.olm file format. File://c: folder with spaces file with spaces.doc After pressing ENTER or typing a space behind the , Outlook will automatically turn it into a link. This works for all message formats (Plain Text, HTML and Rich Text). Note: If Outlook doesn’t automatically create links for you in Plain Text messages see; No Hyperlinks in Plain Text anymore.
In our organization we often send text based hyperlinks to folders and files we work on. Most of the time I just copy the path out of Explorer and insert it into the message body and put file:// if front of it so that Outlook will automatically create a link out of it.
Steps to recover and restore corrupt Outlook for Mac 2011 data. Step 1: Install OLM file Repair tool and launch it.Click on ‘Browse’ to select the corrupted or damaged OLM file and then start the repair process by clicking the ‘Start‘ button. Step 2: The scan process will starts, which is indicated by the ‘Scanning OLM File’ status bar.
This works great except if the file or foldername contains spaces. Then it breaks the hyperlink at the first space.
How can I make Outlook to create a link including spaces? Renaming the files and folders is not an option to us.
You can indicate the beginning and the end of the link by placing it between < and >. Your typed linked will then look something like this; <file://c:folder with spacesfile with spaces.doc>
After pressing ENTER or typing a space behind the >, Outlook will automatically turn it into a link. This works for all message formats (Plain Text, HTML and Rich Text).
Note: If Outlook doesn’t automatically create links for you in Plain Text messages see; No Hyperlinks in Plain Text anymore
Recently I have been getting warning in my Outlook saying the mailbox is full, even after clearing and archiving most of the older emails. After running the Mailbox Cleanup tool in Outlook and looking through the size of each folders, I noticed the 3 folders which are having too many emails but I cannot see those folders in the Outlook thus not able to clear those unwanted mails. The folder names I found in the Mailbox Cleanup are as follows:
- Sync Issues
- Sync IssuesConflicts
- Sync IssuesLocal Failures
- Sync IssuesServer Failures (it appears sometimes appear)
I finally figured out how to see these folders and take some action on those conflict emails. Here is how you can do that.
Before I explain how to view these folders, you may want to know how you can see if these 3 folders (sometimes 4, including Server Failures) really contain any items. To do that:
In Outlook 2010:

Step 1: Click on File >>> Cleanup Tools >>> Mailbox Cleanup…
Step 2: Click on View Mailbox Size… and scroll through each folders and see how many items are in Sync Issues, Sync IssuesConflicts, Sync IssuesLocal Failures and Sync IssuesServer Failures folders.
In Outlook 2007:
Step 1: Click on Tools >>> Mailbox Cleanup…
Step 2: Click on View Mailbox Size… and scroll through each folders and see how many items are in Sync Issues, Sync IssuesConflicts, Sync IssuesLocal Failures and Sync IssuesServer Failures folders.
Let’s now see how we can make Sync Issues, Sync IssuesConflicts, Sync IssuesLocal Failures, Sync IssuesServer Failures folders visible in Outlook.
Viewing Sync Issues, Conflicts, Local Failures and Server Failures folders in Outlook
As I mentioned earlier, in most cases, we may not be able to view the folders I mentioned earlier
(Sync Issues, Conflicts, Local Failures and Server Failures). These are system folders created by Outlook just like Inbox, Sent Items, Drafts, etc. and cannot be deleted (deleting the folder itself) from Outlook. But we can view these folders and take actions like delete, move, etc. on the items inside these folders. To view these folders, click on Folder List icon appearing at the bottom of your navigation pane.
If you can’t see that:
Right click on the bottom of the navigation pane >>> Navigation pane options… >>> Tick Folder List (You can also try <CTRL + 6>).
Once you do that, you will be able to see all the folders inside your mailbox including Sync Issues, Sync IssuesConflicts, Sync IssuesLocal Failures and Sync IssuesServer Failures folders.

You can now review these items and delete from these folders. Before you delete these items, you may want to consult your company policies and other factors.
Please note that, as I said, you won’t be able to delete these folders itself, but only the items inside these folders.
