Hi,

I cannot enter text in the email address bar when creating a new email message in Outlook (Mac version). Any ideas? Problem just started two days ago.

I have removed my signature from the emails, gone through all the settings in safari and outlook, removed pop-up blocker etc, but still no joy. The 'To' bar in new emails does not permit me to enter any text.

    Hi, Jawad. I'm sorry to hear you're having this problem, and I hope I can assist you to find a satisfactory solution.

    Note: This is a user-to-user support forum and I am a fellow user who doesn't work for Microsoft.

    Have you tried restarting your computer?

    I am having the same problem. I tried restarting my computer, logging in and out of msn, but I can not enter an email address in Outlook either. Any ideas?

    Hi, Jawad.

    A lot of other users have also reported the same issue.

    In the meantime, try accessing your outlook email via browser.

    https://outlook.live.com/mail/0/

    I hope this helps.

    Hi Candy,

    I tried that link you sent but I still have the same issue as before. I cannot type into the To sender address bar.
