  • Outlook 2000 & today

    This morning dawned with overcast skies but the wind was moderate.  I bailed out of bed and cleaned up for a return to the home church.  About noon we went to Ann’s to see the first floor – it echo’d like a tomb.  We talked for a while and went to the homestead for lunch and a nap.

    After awakening I geared up for a visit to our FISH CREEK TRAIL geocache.  Not one hardy soul had found it in a year.  I went to visit all stages and even took some pictures to prove it was there.  I wrote up our found article and posted it and the pics.  I finished up by walking most of the trail and I was sweating in the 72º temperatures.

    After I got home I gloated over the success in getting my Outlook 2000 working after installing the Apple iTune app.  Seems like Apple does not still interface with Windows well.  Take care if you have O2K and you install iTunes.  O2K will not stay open if you do – there is a work around and it involves repeated multiple hits of the O2K icon.  The fix is here:

    • Symptoms
      After installing iTunes 10 on a Windows PC with Microsoft Outlook 2000 installed, Microsoft Outlook 2000 will not open.

      Products Affected
      iTunes 10 for Windows, Microsoft Outlook 2000

      Resolution
      iTunes will sync with Microsoft Outlook 2003, Microsoft Outlook 2007, or Microsoft Outlook 2010. If you use Microsoft Outlook 2000, you can resolve this issue by renaming the “OutlookChangeNotifierAddIn.dll” file. This file can be renamed however you choose, and is found in the following default location depending on your operating system:

      Windows XP, Windows Vista (32-bit) or Windows 7 (32-bit):
      C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\OutlookChangeNotifierAddIn.dll
      Windows Vista (64-bit) or Windows 7 (64-bit):
      C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\OutlookChangeNotifierAddIn.dll
      If you install Microsoft Outlook 2003, Microsoft Outlook 2007, or Microsoft Outlook 2010 after renaming this file, you may need to reinstall iTunes 10 before being able to sync Contacts, Calendars, email account information, or Notes.
