The most common reason why your Teams button suddenly disappeared from Outlook.

Have you been using the teams meeting button in outlook and it suddenly dissapeared?

The most common reason for the teams meeting button to disappear is outlook has disabled the teams plugin. Outlook checks every time it starts to see if something is slowing it down and will disable the teams button integration.

The fix is really easy, you just have to click on:

  1. On the File tab,
  2. click ‘Manage COM Add-ins’
  3. under ‘Slow and Disabled COM Add-ins’
  4. You’ll see a list of add-ins. Locate the Microsoft Teams entry and click ‘Always enable this add-in’, as shown in the images below, and select ‘Apply’.

I have some images below of step 2 and step 3 so you can see what the clicks should look like. I hope this is helpful. If you need some assistance with your Microsoft Teams please contact us for immediate service.

If this quick fix didn’t work for you, there can be other reasons why teams meeting buttons don’t work. Below I have listed some longer troubleshooting steps you can take or just call us and we’ll fix it for you.

1) Completely remove Teams from you computer and re-install it. Its important to download it again from teams online where there is an option to download the teams for business application.

2)Update your Microsoft office software because if the version is really old then the teams button wont work.

It’s the nightmare scenario for any business: a staff member accidentally deleting essential company data. This is exactly what happened to a company in Melbourne recently, but thanks to their partnership with Fix My Tech, the situation was quickly resolved.

How did we fix it?

Less than an hour after the data was accidentally deleted, we arrived on site. Fix My Tech had already implemented a backup system for this company, which meant that the files needed for that day were immediately restored. This was a huge relief for the staff member who had accidentally deleted the data, as well as for the entire team who rely on these files to do their jobs.

However, this was only the beginning of the process. There was still over 100GB of data that had been lost, months and months of work, and this needed to be restored as quickly as possible. Our technician worked throughout the weekend to restore all of the lost data before Monday morning. This was a massive effort, but thanks to the expertise of the technician and the strength of the backup system, everything was restored to its original state.

On Monday morning, it was business as usual for the company. Despite the potentially catastrophic situation, thanks to the strong backup plan put in place by Fix My Tech, there was no downtime, no lost productivity, and no lost revenue. The team were able to continue working as if nothing had happened.

This situation highlights the importance of having a strong backup plan in place. Accidents happen, and when they do, it’s essential to have a plan that can quickly restore lost data. It’s not enough to simply have a backup system in place – it’s also important to have a team of experts who can quickly and efficiently restore lost data. This is where Fix My Tech comes in.

Fix My Tech is dedicated to providing reliable and efficient computer repair services in Melbourne. Our team of experienced technicians can diagnose and repair computer issues quickly and efficiently, ensuring that downtime is minimized and productivity is maximized. We can also provide backup solutions that are tailored to each business’s needs, ensuring that data is always protected and easily recoverable in the event of an accident.

In the case of the Melbourne company, our backup solution meant that the potentially catastrophic situation was quickly and efficiently resolved. Thanks to the expertise of our technicians and the strength of the backup system, the company was able to continue operating as normal, without any lost productivity or revenue.

If you’re looking for a reliable and efficient computer repair service in Melbourne, look no further than Fix My Tech. Our experienced team can provide tailored backup solutions to ensure that your data is always protected and easily recoverable in the event of an accident.

We helped Erica in Bentleigh choose a new laptop https://fixmytech.com.au/erica-in-bentleigh-needed-a-new-comp/ Mon, 13 Feb 2023 23:40:25 +0000 https://fixmytech.com.au/?p=10519 If your computer takes ages to load, we recommend reaching out to us, we can help by either refurbishing your old computer or helping you get a new computer fully configured.

The post We helped Erica in Bentleigh choose a new laptop appeared first on Fix My Tech Computer Repairs and Technical Support.

Erica’s laptop was over 7 years old and had been repaired once before, it was running very slowly and needed a lot of work to get it running well. She decided to replace the laptop rather than repair it as a new laptop would work so much better than repairing her 7-year-old laptop.

We helped her choose an excellent laptop in her budget and made sure she got the most “bang for her buck”.

We went by our 8 tips for choosing a laptop: Size, Processor, RAM, Storage, Graphics, Battery, Weight, and Cost. You can read more about our 8 Tips for choosing a laptop here.

Erica’s new laptop was fully configured by our team. We transferred all of her files and programs to the new laptop and made sure it was fully configured. All of her email accounts were connected and we made sure she had some specific software she wanted installed and configured.

Our process was easy, Erica left her old and new laptop in our office for a day and we did everything to make her new laptop work like her old one with everything fully configured for her so she could pick up where she left off.

Buying a new computer is sometimes the best option because a new one can be much faster than a repaired old one. In this case Ericas new computer was 10 times faster than her old one. When pressing the power button the new laptop loads in seconds.

We worked out that Erica will be saving hours every day now that she doesn’t need to wait for her computer to finish loading.

If your computer takes ages to load, we recommend reaching out to us, we can help by either refurbishing your old computer or helping you get a new computer fully configured.

    These days everyone has a gamer in their life. Friend or family member, young or old, the hobby has been dramatically increasing in popularity for years now. So, many of us will understand the frustration that comes with technical issues ruining an otherwise fun experience. That is exactly what had been happening to Joelle’s son when he tried to game. His brand-new computer would randomly shut off with no warning. Thankfully, Joelle knew that the technicians at Fix My Tech offers custom gaming computer repair!

    The computer was very high spec and extremely powerful. When handling a computer like this keeping everything cooled is of the highest priority.

    One of our technicians rapidly determined that the cooling solution for this computer was simply not good enough. The CPU, the brain of the computer was getting so hot it was essentially cooking itself! The CPU was hot enough to boil water and the cooler it was attached to simply could not keep up.

    When this happens the CPU first slows down, you will experience poor performance from your computer. If this automatic safety step fails or isn’t enough the computer will abruptly turn off to avoid damaging itself.

    Despite the complex nature of cooling a computer, this powerful Fix My Tech was able to source and install a vastly superior cooler the very same day.

    Just like that Joelle’s son was back to his gaming sessions the high-end CPU was down from over 100 degrees to just about 63 degrees which is a perfect temperature.

    If your computer is giving you trouble Fix My Tech repairs and upgrades all from the old work laptop you have laying around up to the brand new high-performance gaming machine Joelle brought us.

    When we got a call from a local pharmacy stating that they couldn’t dispense medicine, we knew it was an emergency.

    The pharmacist was completely unable to give medicine to her customers all because her computers we not keeping up with the task. Within 5 minutes of the phone call, our technicians had remotely diagnosed the issue and found replacement parts to get the computers up to speed.

    The pharmacy computers were running out of RAM, a very common cause of slow computers when a heavy workload is required. Unfortunately, the fix was not so simple. In order to replace the RAM, all sales machines would be taken offline. For every minute the computer was being upgraded there was money being left on the table. For every minute it was not upgraded patients couldn’t get their medicine.

    In total from the moment the first computer was powered down until all computers were back online, there were fewer than 15 minutes of outage.

    Thanks to the experience of technicians at Fix My Tech upgrades like this can be carried out during a busy day with absolute minimal disruption to normal business. Experience meant the upgrade went perfectly, the first time, as quickly as possible.

    If you run a small business and can’t afford to have tech issues weigh you down, Fix My Tech is the right fit for you. Our technicians are experienced with small business operations and understand how outages can have enormous associated costs. We are committed to ensuring quality service every time.

    If your older iMac is running slow we can breathe new life into. Most older apple desktops run slow because they have slow hard disks. We can upgrade your older mac with a solid state hard disk which will make it run faster than new.

    Today we helped a customer upgrade his older 27″ iMac. The computer was from 2013 and we installed a solid state disk. This sped it up so much. After the repair it started up much faster and the rainbow wheel stopped showing, we estimate it is now 10x faster than before the upgrades.

    We have a fully equipped lab where we can open your mac up and give it a good internal clean. Dust builds up inside and you should regularly get your computer internally cleaned and dusted.

    Whatever your apple computer issue is, we have the experience to get it fixed. Your computer might need a tuneup or it might have a hardware issue. We offer same day service and and repairs. Check out our post regarding imac repair in Caulfield
