The Sale Should Not End After Setting Up Exchange

Many of us stop selling at the first sale of Office 365. Typically we all just setup exchange and Office 2016. This was me until I learned I could offer more, support more and make more money.

Stop leaving money on the table when helping clients! Join our free Office 365 Training Courses created by Technicians FOR Technicians. We teach our tips for making more money with Office 365 through sales, marketing, technical configuration and product knowledge. 

I have partnered up with the course sponsors AppRiver, BitTitan and marketing partners ChannelPro Magazine, ITBOG, LaunchUx, GeGeek.com to get these courses into the hands of working technicians free of charge. The videos are all are recorded so you can watch or listen anytime and will be hosted on my website here. Each course will be 30-60 minutes in length with some “Pop Up Bonus” courses in between.

Gmail Inbox Missing in Outlook 2013

| June 30, 2014

outlook2013Two times this week, had the exact same call come in. Gmail inboxes are missing in Outlook 2013. Guess what? Other things are going to not work either that you might not notice right away. Here is what’s going on.

Gmail offers you 2 ways to setup your email in Outlook. IMAP (nice because it synchronizes) and Pop, (download only, no synchronizing).

What is IMAP? It synchronizes your email and folders from Outlook to your email on the web, that should match up with your phone, other devices. It’s a nice feature, but not always play well with Outlook 2013, and usually just Gmail users have issues due to the limitations of Gmail and the new features in Outlook 2013.

When you setup your Gmail, your inbox may be missing and many other folders, here is why…

Outlook 2013 has added some features for IMAP and it allows you to download the folders you want to see. I’m not sure why they would add this feature as it’s not really a feature, more of a disappointment… because HELLO, the inbox is critical! So you have to go and add it yourself.

Here is how you fix it

Click on any folder viewable in Outlook 2013 from your Gmail account. Click on the top bar of Outlook and go to “Folder” and click on “IMAP Folders”

outlook2013navbar

 

Then in the box below, click on “query”, then a list of your Gmail folders will pop up, select “Inbox” and then “subscribe” to the right. Apply and ok, close. Now refresh your Gmail folders and inbox should be listed.

Other problems you may experience

Outlook 2013 also creates an .OST file, and that makes it difficult to configure your calendar and contacts with 3rd party apps, (that you need to get your phones and ipads to synch) because it creates a “Local computer” calendar and then…you will need a local .PST file for the contacts. Getting confused? That’s why people call me..as well,

Other issues you might experience

  • 3rd party apps are not working nicely
  • gmail1Gmail IMAP only synchronizes email, no calendar, no contacts (for free accounts, business apps yes, if you have Outlook synch app installed and enabled in your account)
  • Gmail contacts are more current, need the imported into Outlook 2013
  • Calendars are not matching up
  • Sent items are missing
  • Your Outlook may start to slow down if you have over 20,000 emails to synchronize. You will have to move some old email to a local .PST file.

Time to check your internet speed

| June 9, 2014

It’s been awhile and I feel I have to remind folks to check their internet speed. The cable companies will change their packages and not send you a message to let you know you to “Upgrade” usually at no cost! Sad, but they do it all the time. What you bought 5 years ago is now outdated and the pricing is the same, their packages now have more download speed at the same price! If you don’t call, you won’t know.

Here is how to test your internet speed, then call your internet company and find out if you’re on the best package.

Go to this site… http://www.speedtest.net/

begin testClick on “Begin Test” in the laptop screen, do not click on “Start Now” as that is another tool we are not using.

The test will run and let you know your download speed and upload speed.

My recommendations for home users: You should have over 10 mbps (megabytes per second) download and 1 up. I have 20 mbps download and almost 5 mbps up! That’s fast and I’m wireless upstairs from my router in the basement!

My recommendations for businesses: If you are just one person in an office, then yes…10 mbps down and 1 up should be fine, but if you have a lot of people in your office, then you want to call your internet provider and check your package. You also might have a bad modem or router if the speed is fine.  Just this month I have had 2 businesses call me about “slow computers” and their computers were fine, internet speed was bad.

Some businesses are on a dedicated internet service, and your speed might only be 1.5 down. This is common if you are with companies such as TDS or CBeyond. Some clients I have found are just using these companies for internet only and if that’s they case, I would check with Comcast for business class and get the speed you really need.

Why Googling things yourself can hurt your computer

| May 21, 2014

googleCall comes in, client says they downloaded Adobe and now they have junk all over their computer, their search engine is messed up and they have pornographic ads on their google page. Yep, it’s happening! Just downloading an easy program like Adobe can do this to your computer, but come on….Adobe Reader is in Google right? Of course it is, but not at the top of your Google search. It’s about 4 down. See my picture below?

adobefake

 

It shows you a basic search in Google for Adobe Reader I just did. The real one is the 4th one down, under the “Ads” that is sometimes hard to notice. I know this because the website is actually an Adobe website, not Adobereader.com or something of the like. Very tough to tell these days folks!

But hey Lisa, Adobe is downloaded and works, so what happened?

You did get Adobe, but it was bundled in a “download manager” filled with other junk! Search engine fun and other programs that are annoying. Sometimes you can download up to 20 programs! I have spent over an hour before removing this junk.

So please be mindful when Googling and if you are not sure, don’t do anything and call us to install the programs properly, which will end up being cheaper than a virus removal.
