Live Search Maps for Outlook function doesn't work

H

h s m

I've installed the newest version today, 5.15.07, upon finding a notice
within Outlook for installing this plug-in. However, it had worked before
when I installed it last month. What was working before is not now working at
all.

By selecting the appointment and then "Location" what used to show up as a
map now shows a notice for how to get this plug-in. When I got to Tools >
Options > Other > Advanced Options > COM Add-Ins > (and select) Live Search
Maps for Outlook, it will not stay selected. I will immediately return to
this selection only to see it deselected again. I use this function regularly
for my new appointments so it's been a week or more since I've used it.

Is there a solution to this problem?

Thanks.

I'm using Outlook 2007 and I'm having the same exact problem. I cant find the
"COM Add-Ins" selection in OL2007. Good Luck and if you find anything,
please post. I'll do the same.

Thanks Milly. I did find that a little while ago and got it working. But,
Uless I go into 'Macro Security' and check 'Warnings For All Macros' and alow
it each time I open Outlook, it will disable again. Do you know anyway around
this? Thanks for replying and enjoy your holiday.

Under Tools->Trust Center->Add-ins, do you have the box checked to apply macro security to all installed add-ins? If yes, uncheck it.

Thanks again. I don't know what changed those settings from when it was
working fine after install. I hope this thread comes up on a search because I
could not find anything anywhere about this. You made my day. I like your
e-mail address ahaha.

I am having the same problem. I look under Tools, Trust Center, Add-ins. Live
Search Maps for Outlook was listed under Disabled Application Add-ins. How
do I enable it?

Hi,

I have Outlook 2007 on a Vista PC, and I just downloaded the live search
maps for Outlook. Nothing happens when I click on my starting and ending
addresses, and I never get a calendar. I tried to customize my "business"
and "home" addresses and the same thing happened, aka nothing. I looked in
the trust center and I don't have the box checked to apply macro security to
all installed add-ins. Also, it was listed as an active plug-in. When I
click "explore this location", an Explorer window opens to live maps, but
without any of my information input. It's just a map of the whole U.S. Any
ideas to fix this? I think it's a really cool idea if I can get it to work.

did you reboot overnight? more and more it seems like rebooting is needed,
even though more recent versions of office and windows were designed to
minimize reboots after installing applications.
