I am not able to download any add-ins to my desktop. What would cause this to happen?It is possible that your network administrator has stopped computers connected to the corporate network from downloading specific types of files. Before trying to download any of the add-ins, you should contact your local IT helpdesk and check whether you need to get them to either download it or even install it as there could be a security policy in place to stop normal users from doing this.

The download is complete but I don’t see the icons in Outlook. What steps do I need to take so they appear?To make the icons appear:
-
Confirm that the version of Outlook you are running is supported.
-
Check in your View > Toolbars option to see if the menu is listed but not selected. If it is not listed there, go to the control panel (in the Start menu of Windows®) and open Add or remove programs.
-
Check to see that the Microsoft Office Live Meeting Add-In Pack is installed. If not, try to reinstall the pack. Make sure that Outlook is completely closed before you do so.
