HOW TO UPDATE OFFLINE ADDRESS BOOK (AOB) IN OUTLOOK 2007?

Scenario: My work computer is setup with Microsoft Outlook 2007 and is getting it's contact list from the Exchange server. Unfortunately, after the administrator added new contact and you search their names on your contact list (the folder set by the server or your Offline Address Book), it is not updated yet. Here is the solution:

1. Open Oulook 2007

2. Click on the arrow down beside Send/Receive button

3. Click on Download Address Book

4. The Oflfine Address Book dialogue box will be opened

5. Make sure to select the folder to where the lists are saved then OK.

6. Close Outlook then restart it.

It might take 5-10 minutes but it's worth the wait.

FYI: The reason you're not updated yet compared to other computers is because of different time frames specified on individual's outlook and so with the server too.

THUNDERBIRD'S WINGS

I recently have lots of customers who have outlook problems, like freezing or not responding.
Checking their system, they have a lot of emails that the outlook can handle, they have limited space to save their files on the hard drive, they have 1GB ram on a vista operating system, they have McAfee enabled that tremendously slows the PC down when it comes to its processes, they have viruses or spywares, the hard drive contains clutters from uninstalled software or from internet activities, an email has attachments like autocad drawings, and so forth.

I can't blame these people if they don't want to upgrade their system, all I can do is delete all those clutters, try to work the outlook on safe mode, disable all startup items and non-microsoft services from msconfig, scan the system with antivirus or antispyware, then restart the computer.

If for some reasons, that won't make the outlook work, try another email client like THUNDERBIRD. I did and it functions like no other way an outlook can. Kudos!
