Checking Outlook…This usually takes a second or two.

What to do if Outlook isn't working

  1. Try Outlook in a different way: the desktop app, the web version or the phone app.
  2. Check the company's official status page for known problems.
  3. Sign out and back in. Expired sign-ins cause many errors.
  4. If you have a meeting, send attendees a phone number or another meeting link.
  5. Tell your IT team if only people at your organisation are affected.

Our check tests the public Outlook website. Its app, sign-in or other services can still have problems while the website is up.
