  1. Select File, and then select Account Settings.
  2. Select Account Settings, and then select SharePoint Lists.
  3. In the Account Settings dialog box, double-click the SharePoint list for which you received the error.
  4. Clear the check on Display this list on other computers with the account: and then select OK.
  5. Make sure that the SharePoint list for which you received the error is still selected, and then select Remove.
  6. Close the Account Settings dialog box.

Note

If you have multiple Outlook clients connected to the same email account, you may have to wait until the changes are synchronized to your other Outlook clients. If the SharePoint List is still listed on the other Outlook clients, repeat these steps on each of those clients.
