Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • TheTaylorFace Taylor Richelle (@TheTaylorFace) reported

    @Outlook Outlook Team, It seems the y'all deployed a new version of OWA and every time I click on calendar, inbox, files, etc it opens a new tab rather than in the same window. Any fix for this? It's incredibly annoying. :(

  • TheFriddle Krystal Heath (@TheFriddle) reported

    @Outlook and @Microsofthelps please not “This Computer Only” not relevant to problem, happens on all folders, but trying to be discreet for privacy and can’t show other folders publicly. Please advise. Thanks.

  • zatrana zatrana (@zatrana) reported

    @Outlook Why my account is not working? I have access to microsoft, but every time I try on Outlook it says, “Something went wrong”

  • nicholespiess Nichole Spiess (@nicholespiess) reported

    @ThingsJoeHates @Outlook @Twitter I’m so done with Outlook. I stopped paying for my email (and other office stuff I NEVER use) & now the spam emails about erectile problems are overwhelming.

  • Colorado_Shep TJ Sheppard (@Colorado_Shep) reported

    @Outlook hello, I'm unable to move items after a search to a different folder. Is this a known issue? It's in both the online and desktop version of 365.

  • joergpreiss Ein Philosophiker (@joergpreiss) reported

    @thomykay @Outlook I just googled it for you: '#Outlook is broken' is a so called tautology

  • ColtonGriffin Colton Griffin (@ColtonGriffin) reported

    @Apple it would be great to push a fix for the native calendar app in iOS 15.1.1. It’s not working properly and diving me crazy. I do love the native @Outlook app, but I don’t have my personal calendar on it.

  • ImSkyeTwit Skye (@ImSkyeTwit) reported

    @MicrosoftHelps is there a reason why you don’t support using security keys to sign in to @Outlook .com in safari on Mac?

  • 07ashutoshkr Ashutosh kumar (@07ashutoshkr) reported

    @Outlook I used only chrome. Haven't tried any other browser. Yes I followed the steps mentioned, step by steps but still got the error. Do you want me to try any other browser.? I guess your API is not getting called where details from the form is being sent.

  • Meh_Nannapaneni Mehreen Nannapaneni (@Meh_Nannapaneni) reported

    @Microsoft @Outlook your new software update have completely screwed up the calendar functionality. I am not able to change meeting invites through my mobile app. Please fix this soon, as it’s impacting a lot of work. Thanks!

  • AzureMedia Anne Zeiser (@AzureMedia) reported

    @netsolcares Server0 is still down and has been for a while (problems since the Oct. 18 switchover). Affects @apple and @outlook users. When will this be resolved?

  • FaliSoufian fali soufian (@FaliSoufian) reported

    @Outlook I have a problem with my account Please Help

  • OisinOhAlmhain Oisín Ó hAlmhain (@OisinOhAlmhain) reported from Fingal County, Leinster

    What would it take for @Microsoft to change @Outlook so that when people forward a mail that went to loads of people the list of cc’s disappears? Tired of going down 3 pages to see the actual message! @HSELive #FrontLineInnovation

  • EricConfer economix (@EricConfer) reported

    @outlook 365 is freaking trash… if you’re not using the native desktop application it’s absolute rubbish. If I didn’t have to use this piece of **** software for work, I’d never use it again. It wastes so much of my time & the are little bugs force so many unnecessary errors.

  • blonde_mc jynxy_bex (@blonde_mc) reported

    @Outlook I havnt been able to receive an email since Tuesday is there a problem with the system?

  • Ghoul_of_London ⚠️Skeleton O'Rourke⚠️ (@Ghoul_of_London) reported

    @MicrosoftHelps @Outlook Any estimated fix time for the recent bug we reported, whereby an Outlook (Office app) email being edited momentarily scrolls up/down rapidly, causing much distraction? Must be fixed, please. #Microsoft

  • robertjelenic Robert Jelenic (@robertjelenic) reported

    I wish I could compose @Outlook emails in #markdown, the goofy formatting of this WYSIWYG editor is killing me… especially when you paste in from another source 😔 How is this still a problem in 2021?

  • 07ashutoshkr Ashutosh kumar (@07ashutoshkr) reported

    @Outlook I haven't received any follow up email or message. Also the issue is not resolved yet.

  • koobisoft koob; (@koobisoft) reported

    i've been locked out of my school email account for like a week please how do i fix it?? i have work to do, please help me @Outlook @MicrosoftHelps

  • iameating Winston (@iameating) reported

    @Outlook There appears to be a system glitch when using Outlook(dot)com. Upon utilizing the search function, when selecting a few emails to be moved to a specific folder, nothing seems to happen i.e. not able to move emails to a folder in this specific manner.

  • DolaniMaruf Maruf Dolani (@DolaniMaruf) reported

    @Outlook Left App side panel opening all links in new tab/windows both in PWA and/or in a browser. Confirmed that this is an Outlook issue (Chrome, Edge)

  • aspenforeal Aspen Real (@aspenforeal) reported

    @Outlook your mobile calendar feature sucks. New meetings don’t show up. The calendar rarely updates. Please fix.

  • TheTaylorFace Taylor Richelle (@TheTaylorFace) reported

  • paulfabretti Paul Fabretti (@paulfabretti) reported

    @JohnKennedyMSFT @Outlook Well, that’s kinda the root of the problem!

  • amore_sun Tanya 📷🎙 (@amore_sun) reported

    I absolutely love the fact that I can get Microsoft on the phone or via chat whenever I run into issues with @Outlook. I just wish the Outlook app was included in my subscription, so I don't have to use the Edge Outlook browser app.

  • GavinOsborn 💉💉 Gavin Osborn (@GavinOsborn) reported

    *sigh* the navigation for the @Outlook PWA appears to be broken - at least I hope this isn't intentional. Navigating between panels (Calendar, Mail, etc) leaves the App and opens a tab in a new browser. So frustrating.
