| I am unable to "Post to ICapture" from Outlook |
To post to iCapture from Outlook you will need to have the Infinity Connector Add-in installed, this is usually installed as part of the Infinity installation. If you have made any changes to your Outlook app, you will need to uninstall Infinity and reinstall to ensure the Outlook Add-in and Word Add-in are installed correctly. You can view you Outlook / Word Add-ins via File \ Options, within Options there is a dedicated Add-ins section where you can review Add-ins available, which are active, inactive and disabled. Even if the Add-in is displaying as active, click on Go button to check the Connector is ticked. If the Connector is displaying as disabled then you will need to use the dropdown next to the Go button, changing it to Disabled and click Go. You should be able to see the add-in, select and click enable button. See above to then activate the Add-in. Restarting Outlook will ensure changes are implemented. If problems persist please contact our Support engineers. |
| Buttons on the Infinity tab are not working |
This is generally a sign that the Add-in has failed to load correctly, close Word and Infinity and restart. Access Word via Comms Centre or CV and check if buttons are now functioning. If problem persists we would recommend you uninstall Infinity and reinstall, during the Infinity installation it installs the Add-in into Word and Outlook, ensuring the Add-in is the latest version. If the problem persists further then please contact your IT to complete an Office repair, Office includes an ability to scan trough the program files and repair an erroneous file(s). |
