I am creating an introductory email with various links to resources. To make the links strike a bit more and give the introductory email a bit of an interactive look, I’d like to insert these links as clickable buttons.

How would I turn these hyperlinks into buttons?

1. If your mail provider is any of the following, Windows manages these settings for you, and you will not be able to edit them directly; it is safe to skip this step. Outlook.com Your email address ends with @outlook.com, @live.com, @hotmail.com, or @msn.com; Google Your email address ends with @gmail.com; Yahoo! Your email address ends with.
2. Expand your Outlook. We've developed a suite of premium Outlook features for people with advanced email and calendar needs. A Microsoft 365 subscription offers an ad-free interface, custom domains, enhanced security options, the full desktop version of Office, and 1 TB of cloud storage.

A really simple method to achieve this is to insert a picture of a button, select that button (picture) and then create a hyperlink (keyboard shortcut: CTRL+K) for it to your resources.

Depending on the type of email account youre adding, you may need to specify the incoming and outgoing email server names, port numbers and encryption methods. Open up Outlook on your Mac and click Outlook in the menu bar at the top-left of the screen. Click the plus sign in the bottom-right, and then select Add account.

If you don’t have a ready-made button image yet, you can create it yourself, with whatever text you want, in one of the following ways.

Creating a button shape in Outlook

To create the button in Outlook itself, you can use the Shapes feature. You’ll find it on the Insert tab in the Ribbon. In this case a “Rounded Rectangular” shape will be a good fit.

Insert a Rounded Rectangle shape to turn it into a clickable button.

When you click the shape in the Ribbon, move your cursor into the message body to draw the shape by simply clicking and holding down the mouse button on the place where you want to insert it. Then move your mouse to draw the shape. Release the mouse button to create the shape. You can always resize and move it afterwards.

Once inserted, select the shape and simply start typing to add text to it. You can style it further via the Format tab of Drawing Tools.

When done styling the button, select the shape again and press CTRL+K or Insert-> Hyperlink to turn the entire button into a shortcut.

Via the Drawing Tools tab you can make your shape look like a button.

While this is a very flexible and quick way to create your own custom buttons, not all mail clients are able to interpret these shapes unless you are using Outlook 2013 or Outlook 2016. Previous versions of Outlook will use the emz format whereas Outlook 2013 and Outlook 2016 will use the png format.

To ensure optimum compatibility when using Outlook 2010 or previous, you can first create a button image file (png or jpg) via the instructions below.

Note: The web interface of Gmail properly supports the shapes sent from Outlook but also shows a image001.emz attachment unless you are using Outlook 2013 or Outlook 2016. The Outlook.com web interface also properly supports it; It won’t show an attachment icon nor does it list the button as an attachment even when you aren’t using Outlook 2013 or Outlook 2016.

Creating a button image file

If you prefer to use png or jpg images rather than shapes, a quick workaround would be to first design the shape/button in Word or Outlook, take a screenshot of the result, paste that in a picture editing tool (even Paint will do) cut it out or resize the canvas and save it as a png or jpg file which you would then insert into your message.

As an alternative to doing this in Word or Outlook, you could also use your favorite picture editing tool to create the button (and again, you can even do this in Paint!) or use a web service to create a button such as Button Generator or Da Button Factory.

Microsoft Outlook is one of the world’s most widely used email clients. And due to its frequent use—both for routine corporate communication and casual email ‘forwards’— the underlying PST file becomes oversized, which triggers errors at several levels viz. software performance, file integrity, and such…

One such error is “Can’t move the items. The item could not be moved.” which typically occurs when a user attempts to move or copy a message from the Outlook Inbox to a public folder.

Therefore, it’s recommended to maintain smaller PST files — regular backups and archive will help— as the first measure to avoid Outlook-related problems (including PST file corruption).

This article presents specific aspects of this Outlook error— “Cant’ move the items…”— and outlines its key causes, resolution methods and tools. Read further to know detailed information…

Many Outlook users, despite being aware of the fact that the email client is prone to errors, don’t back up their data (PST file) and therefore get stuck when a problem arises through several different Outlook use scenarios.

For instance, the versatile email client displays an error “Can’t move the items. The item could not be moved” while a user tries to copy/move a message from the personal folder or inbox to a public folder.

This hampers movement of crucial email messages and therefore warrants an effective and quick remedy to offset collaboration and productivity loss.

Like many other problems, this error can also be resolved with certain tried and tested troubleshooting methodologies and tools. However, before exploring the solutions to this issue, let’s first examine some of its key causes, as follows:

• The emails selected for copying or moving are already available in the destination folder
• The emails which the user is trying to move are in use by some other instance
• The antivirus installed on the system is performing threat check on Outlook data files
• The PST File is corrupt

For the first three causes, the error should get fixed by closing all the programs that are in running mode and then restarting Outlook. Next, try to move or copy the files again from the personal folder to the public folder.

If the movement is smooth and without any error, then the issue is resolved. Or check with your Antivirus if that triggers with the file.

However, if the problem persists then the error is likely due to a corrupt Outlook PST.

A PST file may get corrupt due to several reasons, and one of the prominent reasons is oversized PST file.

>>>Skip this section if you already know your Outlook PST size. Or Follow these steps to verify/determine the PST size.

1. Open Microsoft Outlook and click on File
2. From the available options, click on Account Settings
3. Click on Data Files tab available in Account Settings window
4. Highlight the Outlook data file (.PST) and click on Open File Location
5. Right Click on PST file followed by Properties

You will get the size of PST file.

Note: Though a PST file can technically grow up to 50GB size in Outlook 2010, 2013, 2016 and 2019, it is recommended to reduce the size of individual PSTs to max. 80% of its limit.

If your PST file has grown larger than the recommended size limit, split it into smaller units — to avoid the risks of corruption— by using an advanced PST Repair tool. The tool also does PST splitting by Size, Date, etc. to save them at a defined location.

Now, besides the above-mentioned measure to ‘avoid file corruption’ by limiting PST file size, what to do when the PST file has already got corrupt and you’re facing the error “Can’t move the items. The item could not be moved”?

Here are some of the solutions (methods and tools) to resolve the error.

Solution 1: Repair a corrupt Outlook PST file with Scanpst.exe (inbuilt utility)

1. Exit Outlook and locate Scanpst.exe by accessing these specific locations:

• Outlook 2019: C:Program Files (x86)Microsoft OfficerootOffice19
• Outlook 2016: C:Program Files (x86)Microsoft OfficerootOffice16
• Outlook 2013: C:Program Files (x86)Microsoft OfficeOffice15
• Outlook 2010: C:Program Files (x86)Microsoft OfficeOffice14
• Outlook 2007: C:Program Files (x86)Microsoft OfficeOffice12

2. Once you have located exe, then open the exe file and select Browse to open the corrupt PST file
3. Click on Start button to begin scanning
4. In case errors are detected after the scanning process, click on Repair to start fixing the errors.
5. Once the file is repaired, open Microsoft Outlook with the repaired PST File
6. Open Outlook to verify whether the error is fixed.

In case the error persists, move on to Solution 2- create a new MS Outlook profile

Solution 2: Create an Outlook Profile

This method is useful when the error is due to another type of email account configured in Outlook along with the POP Account. The following steps will help you create a new Outlook profile:

1. Go to Microsoft Outlook and select the option ‘’
2. Select Account Settings followed by Manage Profiles
3. Select the option ‘Show Profiles’ and click on Add button
4. Type a new name for the Profile in the Profile name box and click on OK button to confirm

Now open Outlook using the new Outlook profile and check whether the error has been resolved.

Sometimes, manual methods just don’t suffice to fix an error like “Can’t move the items. The item could not be moved”.

Therefore, an advanced ‘purpose-built’ software is highly recommended to address such needs, with the added comfort of surety, speed, ease and comprehensive application scope. Read through the next solution inline to know more…
