Moz forum response seems to crash Outlook?
-
Hi, Like the new look of Moz.
I got an automated email the other day saying someone had responded to a question we asked on Moz. However, when opening the email, it really held Outlook 2010 up. So slow that it crashed Outlook a couple of times. When trying to forward the email to a colleague, I got the 'Contacting \d1...cloudfront.net\img_users' dialogue box, which just stood there for ages, and eventually I had to give up and force Outlook to quit.
Please see attached screenshot.
Looking at the URL Outlook was trying to reach indicates it's trying to load up the avatar of the person who responded. Which would look nice I admit, but don't really need it in the email if it's going to cause Outlook to crash. There is an 'image not found' icon next to the post, so that's why I assume Outlook is searching for that image.
It's almost as if the image is incorrectly referencing a local source (network drive) which it can never find. Perhaps there is a missing http:// prefix before the image in the tag?
Anyway, was curious to know if anyone else has this problem, or if anyone at Moz can check this out (update template?)
Regards, Rich

This is happening to me also. Using the latest Outlook in Office 365.

This is ridiculous.
No fix? is this a Moz issue? Microsoft issue? who can help with that?

And I thought it was just me! Well at least I feel a bit better now! Ken

Me too.

Would love it if someone would get to the BOTTOM of this.
Same problem reported here - Win7, MS Outlook 2010.Still no solution.
This has gotta be driving us few Outlook users crazy and causing us to lower our engagement with the forums.

Yup, definitely not fixed!
I'm also using Outlook 2013. It looks like the profile image is causing it:

That's so funny, I just got the automated message from Moz to say this forum thread has been updated (from you Roeesa), and I thought "Oh yeah, that Outlook freeze thing". In the meantime,I had clicked on the message, and Outlook instantly froze!
So I would say the issue is NOT fixed!
I use Outlook 2013 now, so the issue is the same as it was in Outlook 2010 (probably same base-code?)
Luckily this time I left Outlook alone for 45 seconds, and eventually it loaded the content of the e-mail.
So there must still be some image, code or script etc. that is causing that issue.

Hi, I know this is 2 years old - just had the same issue.
I guess the fix (here: https://moz.com/community/q/moz-email-is-freezing-microsoft-outlook) isn't enough.
Anybody else had this too?
-
Ah thanks both.
Did try to search before posting, but couldn't find anything. Sorry for duplication.
Sounds like they are working on it.
-
I am getting the same problems - crashes my outlook all the time. Would be great to get a solution.

HI,
There is a thread here which at the bottom details a temporary fix until the issue is solved: http://moz.com/community/q/moz-email-is-freezing-microsoft-outlook
It is annoying! I find that if I leave outlook to itself after about 25 seconds or so the mail appears (then is a good time to delete it so that you don't get the freeze again by accidentally clicking on the mail later on).

Analytic goals in Moz
We should have the ability to see any and all conversions goals, as defined in analytics, in Moz. After all, the whole point of marketing, SEO, PPC, Social, etc. is to drive sales or leads that create sales right? So, why should we have a dashboard tool that doesn't show us the 1 thing that ultimately matters the most? I understand that Moz simply wasn't designed to do this, but I think that should change. After all, we are in this to make money I hope. My 2 Cents. Micha

Reset my MOZ Account?
I recently redesigned my 2 websites. Both are large 80+ page sites with unique text on every page, no keyword stuffing and generally using all the proper SEO techniques ( I hired a professional w/ 10 years experience). My pages rank for the targeted terms, but MOZ reports say "Not in the Top 50". I had friends run "Clean Searches" from the west coast and we were ranking. Prior to the redesign, I used MOZ and the reports were very accurate. Should I reset my MOZ account or what?

Moz not allowing me to add social profiles?
I have 13 Facebook accounts I want to connect. I got 5 of them to connect, and Moz says that I have 10 of 15 accounts left. However, when I try to add another account it says that I have reached the maximum amount of accounts already?
