when sending emails it's not attaching to contact all the time
When on a contact, click on write email template and it sends through outlook it occasionally attaches to the contact but not all the time. I have to manually create history.
What version of Outlook are you using? Does the Quick Attach work for any emails that haven't recorded automatically? If you do this from the sent folder, the history records will likely be on your own user record in Act, depending on the options selected in step 6 of the Email System Setup wizard.
I recently upgraded from ACT Pro 2011 to ACT Pro v 18. I am running Windows 7 Pro. I am also using Outlook 2010 as my email client.
I noticed that when I go to the Add-Ins tab in Outlook 2010 and click on the Attach E-Mail to Contact button, the database that ACT v 18 is attaching (or trying to) is not the database I am working from. It is connected to a database I used a long time ago.
This can be changed by opening the database you wish to work from, then re-running the E-mail System Setup wizard. More detailed instruction can be found in the following Knowledgebase article: http://kb.act.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/26832
Act! Pro Version 18.2.53.0, having installed Update 4 I am having the same issue. I can't attach historical emails from out of Outlook 365 ver 16 in any form
To get some hands-on assistance with this issue (outlook integration troubleshooting can be tricky over the forums), I would suggest giving technical support a call. They can be reached in the UK on 0845 268 0220.
