When i'm in offline modus with Dynamics CRM 2011 for outlook installed, i get a message that asks to connect with the online database. Can i disable outlook to try to connect automaticly?
Thanks!
I found the simple setting to do this in outlook. Go to file - CRM. In the syncronisation tab you can uncheck the checkbox.

I have Exchange on-premises server with version 2013
I wrote an Office add-on which I can install in Office365 account with manifest file with out any issues
But, when I try to install the same add-on from my Exchange 2013 OWA > Settings > Manage Add-ins/Apps it says
This app isn't supported by the version of exchange server that your
account connects to
Searching for this issue showing that the issue might be with the requirement set we use in the manifest. But, I used the same requirement set 1.1 which should support Exchange 2013 as mentioned in the docs.
What else should be done to enable Office add-on in my Exchange 2013?
Any advice/guidance would be greatly appreciated.
#user3752326, I'm glad updating to the latest Exchange 2013 CU solved your installation problem.
The reason why your add-in is not showing up in the side bar is because Exchange 2013 does not support Add-In Commands. Only Exchange 2016 or Office365 support Add-In Commands. Exchange 2013 supports legacy add-ins, which show up in the body of the message, as you have it in your screenshot.
I need to use Microsoft Office 365 online OUTLOOK with Microsoft Dynamics CRM Online.
but I am unable to find anything related to this.
I found one link related to this but the option/view suggested in this link seems not appearing actually.

I am having a horrible time getting started at creating an add-in for Outlook. I want to use the new html/javascript/manifest approach. I have been able to create a manifest and application which works great with outlook.live.com. Where I am completely getting stuck is with desktop Outlook. How do I install/debug my add-in with desktop Outlook?
I cannot find anything in the UI which will let me add this style of add-in. Additionally the Microsoft documentation did not make things any clearer. Their docs seem to hint using this type of add-in is only possible if you are connecting to an Exchange server.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Yes the add-in will load on Outlook desktop only if your mailbox is Exchange. I am not sure the add-ins work with a personal Microsoft account (e.g hotmail.com, outlook.com) and Office desktop. Keep in mind that the support of mail add-ins for personal account is relatively new (officially announced in march 2016).
To develop your add-in I suggest you to use a organizational account (i.e. Office365 account). Support for organizational account has been released in 2013 and is a much more mature solution for you to get started. You can have a free dev account at dev.office.com.
Edit: October 2016 personal account are supported now by "Personal mailbox accounts" aka outlook.com accounts
Let us keep in mind that a mail add-in is not installed on a mail client (desktop, OWA) but on the mail account. When you "install" an add-in you only set a xml file on your mailbox that basically says "there is a web add-in out there called X and that is served at this url...". Then, if you install add-in X on your mailbox smaclell#mytestcompany.onmicrosoft.com, this add-in will load the add-in web iframes whether you are consulting your mailbox with Outlook Web Access (OWA) or Outlook Desktop.
To install the add-in for one user mailaccount, you have to use the Outlook Web Access. See this blog post. Note also that you can install the add-in for the whole organisation (Admin > Exchange Admin > Add-ins). Finally, Visual Studio is also able to push the manifest to your office 365 mailbox. To have this you need Office Development Tools.
For debugging in Outlook Desktop, I know two approaches.
Use the Office Developement Tools with visual studio
and select your sample add-in project as 'Starting project' and in properties select 'Office Desktop'.
Plain web development.
Personally, I do not use really much the Office Development Tools. I install manually my add-in with "https://localhost:XXXX" for url and I start the web project on IIS express to do the debugging. For stepping into the source code, I use the debugger of my browser (Chrome, Edge, IE etc.) when browsing in OWA. When I need to step into source code specifically on Desktop (For windows or for Mac) I use Vorlon.js see also this blog post.
My advice is also to test/debug frequently with IE 11 (still available in Win10!) and OWA. Indeed, the browser used internally by Office Desktop for the add-ins is IE.
I want to develop all-in-one add-in for Outlook. This means that this add-in will be available for all Outlook clients (desktop, web).
I read here that i can do this. I already created add-in for Outlook Web Application and tried to deploy it to desktop client, but didn't figure how to make it. So how to make it set on desktop and outlook.com? Is that really possible? And if yes, how it can be done?
Technically you can't make an add-in that will work 100% on all clients. The web-based add-ins currently only work with Mailboxes hosted on Office 365 or Exchange 2013 or greater, and with Outlook 2013 or greater. Outlook.com integration is coming this spring. COM/desktop add-ins work with Outlook 2000-2016, but not in OWA.
To deploy an add-in you need to either publish it to the Office Store or an Exchange Server. See here for more info: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/fp123515.aspx.
To install a self-published add-in that is not in the Office Store you just add the manifest file from the "Manage add-ins" page in OWA: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/fp142256.aspx
Note also that you must host your web add-in code in your own web server, and secured with an SSL certificate.
For Outlook 2010, 2013 it was possible to programmatically create Outlook profile and set up all necessary RPC_OVER_HTTP connection settings via MAPI like in this article: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/dvespa/archive/2013/05/21/how-to-mfcmapi-create-mapi-profile-exchange-2013.aspx.
However, looks like this approach is not working for Outlook 2016. Anybody knows is it ever possible to manually setup connection settings(or whatever else) for Outlook 2016 to create new profile?
The way MSEMS provider is configured in Outlook 2016 is different from the previous versions. From what I heard, it will be documented soon.
Documentation has just been posted by Dave Vespa: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/dvespa/archive/2015/10/29/how-to-configure-an-outlook-2016-profile-using-mfcmapi.aspx
