MobileMe is messing with my Outlook since the latest iTunes update. I have no intention of upgrading Outlook just for iTunes as the Outlook is my personal account and I have no need to have MobileMe attached

Thanks!!! That's made my day 🙂 🙂

For an even better solution, see the help I received from turingtest2 a little further down the thread; his fix gets rid of that MobileMe Control Panel altogether.

Good hunting!

Well, credit where it's due Ronald52 & you really helped me. I will have a look at the turingtest2 option as well. Thank you - much appreciated. 🙂

I'm running XP - yes, I know... However it is "stable" with "features". I've followed ronald52 suggestion on how to rename C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\OutMMe32.dll to have another extension, and when I re-ran Outlook - (I haven't see it run that fast in YEARS!) as the MobilMe Control Panel doesn't have a "remove" option in the Add/Remore programs too. Once I re-ran iTune after renaming OutMMe32.dll, iTunes had to reconfigure - after pointing iTunes to my library, everything seems to be working fine. I subsequently reran Outlook, and it is now running slowly again (ARGH!).

ronald52 suggested that I read and follow the discussion in this thread and to your suggestions - the only thing is that the Microsoft Program Install and Uninstall Utility (MS Installer "Fixit") appears to be for 64 bit machines. Instead of clicking the "Run Now" Green Button, I clicked on the link below it that states: Advanced-Download to run on a different or disconnected computer, which opened up more text saying:

• Click Download below, then click Run or Open in your browser and follow the onscreen prompts to create the Fix it Portable folder
• Then copy the Fix it Portable folder to the computer with the problem and run the Launch Fix it application

This sounds like it is still for a 64 bit machine... As the Filename doesn't ahve any clues

(MicrosoftFixit-ortable.exe). Am I correct?

If so, by chance are you aware of a simular tool that can be run on a 32 bit machine?

Thank-you for your time and considerations!

Your solution worked perfectly on both of my Windows Vista machines. Thanks for helping me avoid throwing them through the window since frustration level was high. Standard stuff you pointed out did not work for me as well.

No problem! Sometimes quick and dirty is all that's needed 🙂
