This update should fix all these issues.<\/p>\n<p>The interface of the app has been revamped as well, featuring OS X Yosemite&#8217;s <strong>translucency<\/strong>. There&#8217;s also improved scrolling and speed when switching between different parts of the ribbon interface.<\/p>\n<p>Last but not least, Microsoft promises Office for Mac 16 will sync with Exchange much faster. <strong>Real-time email delivery<\/strong> is also enabled for Office 365 email.<\/p>\n<p>Microsoft has historically released updates to its Office products together so it&#8217;s odd to see the company release Outlook by itself. The company is still working on updating Word, PowerPoint, Excel and OneNote for Mac and plans to release them in &#8220;the second half of 2015.&#8221; Eager users can try out a public beta in the first half of 2015.<\/p>\n<p><em>Source: <a title=\"Office Blogs\" href=\"http:\/\/blogs.office.com\/2014\/10\/31\/new-outlook-mac-available-office-365-customers\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Office Blogs<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<h3>Related Stories<\/h3>\n<p><a title=\"Leaked screenshots show the next version of Outlook for Mac\" href=\"http:\/\/news.en.softonic.com\/outlook-office-for-mac-2016-leaked-screenshots\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Leaked screenshots show the next version of Outlook for Mac<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"The 7 scariest cyber security breaches of 2014\" href=\"http:\/\/features.en.softonic.com\/the-7-scariest-cyber-security-breaches-of-2014\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">The 7 scariest cyber security breaches of 2014<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Social network Ello promises to never sell your data or serve ads\" href=\"http:\/\/news.en.softonic.com\/social-network-ello-promises-to-never-sell-your-data-or-serve-ads\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Social network Ello promises to never sell your data or serve ads<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Apple pushing Mac OS X Yosemite users to use Safari\" href=\"http:\/\/news.en.softonic.com\/apple-pushing-mac-os-x-yosemite-users-to-use-safari\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Apple pushing Mac OS X Yosemite users to use Safari<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right\"><em>Follow me on Twitter: <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/lewisleong\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">@lewisleong<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Screenshots of the new Outlook for Mac 16 leaked this week, showing off a completely overhauled app. Today, Microsoft took the wraps off the new version of Outlook for Mac by releasing it to its Office 365 customers.
