I frequently get a spinning wheel (beach ball) in Outlook 2016 for Mac. I've not been able to find a fix online for the problem. Outlook works fine. It just frequently locks up when switching between various Outlook windows for 5-300 seconds before returning to normal. I use Outlook heavily, so. Hi, Do you have your Macbook late-2013 upgraded to. Outlook 2016 for Mac doesn’t provide any client-side junk mail protection for any kind of an account (Exchange, POP, or IMAP). Instead, it only relies on the mail server to perform all junk mail filtering. Email messages are not scanned client-side by Outlook 2016 for Mac to determine whether they are junk mail.

I have 80 or so Macs at work here. Updated all of them to Office 2011 prior to switching our email to Exchange online. It's mostly been a great success, but I do have about 10 or so users working on older iMacs [Intel Core 2 Duos, 3GB Ram, OS10.5.8]. Whilst this spec meets the requirement for using Office 2011 and Exchange online, these older machines in general get a lot of spinning wheel action while using Outlook. Very frustrating for busy staff. I've upgraded 1 machine to 10.6.8 and there was a slight improvement.
Has anyone had a similar experience with older Macs or any advice on a potential fix. Core i3 and above, no issues in this regard.
All users are running 2011 14.2.3, older versions of office removed, plenty of HD space and I can only upgrade them 1 more GB of Ram, which I doubt will make the difference, but I'll give anything a try.
