MS Office Forum / Outlook / General MS Outlook Questions / July 2007Outlook 2007 - stuck in cached mode
The installation of Outlook 2007 on my laptop has become stuck in cached mode. The cached mode flag has been unchecked in the program and also via control panel/user accounts. I have tried re-checking it, starting the program, closing and unchecking etc. but no deal. I have turned cached mode off and on successfully many times previously. I connect to Exchange/SBS 2003. Any ideas? What makes you say it is still in cached mode even when you have disabled the option?

Well it looks like cached mode - the status bar says 'this folder last updated on..." Or says 'waiting to update folder'. It behaves like cached mode - incoming emails do not appear straight away, messages don't get sent immediately. So it smells like cached mode! > What makes you say it is still in cached mode even when you have disabled > the option? [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] > > > > Any ideas? Owkee, just checking ;-) And no computer policy has been set (by the admin) to force Cached Exchange Mode? Verify that you have it turned off and then rename you ost-file to .old. If on restart Outlook will try to recreate your cahce it be an indication that your mail profile has become corrupted. See if recreating your mail profile makes the option behave correctly again; http://www.howto-outlook.com/faq/newprofile.htm You can of course just create a test profile just to see if it works.

Recreating your profile will work, but you'll lose your saved nicknames unless you know how to manually migrate them. I would first just try going into the Send/Receive settings and unchecking your Exchange account from that. I have found that if Outlook was once in cached mode, it does what you describe: Continues recreating the OST file. But it does that upon Send/Receive, so if you stop that, that should fix it.

Send/Receive settings and unchecking Exchange account had no effect on its own, but got me on the right trail. I then went account settings/more settings/advanced/offline folder file settings/disable offline use and that fixed it. Thanks for the help guys. > Recreating your profile will work, but you'll lose your saved nicknames > unless you know how to manually migrate them.
