Client issues
Lotus Notes
Cannot add RSS feeds to reader
On systems running a firewall, the feed reader may display the error "Valid feed not found". This indicates
that there is no access to the network/feed, even when the feed is available but not parseable. The feed
reader can also be blocked and display no error message. For example, you may be unable to add a new
RSS feed but see no error. Restarting the client resolves this issue.
Lotus Notes
Close All option closes the sidebar
The Lotus Notes 8 File menu item or toolbar action "Close all" closes the sidebar. If the sidebar is closed,
you can redisplay it by clicking View > Sidebar, and selecting Open or Thin from the resultant list.
Lotus Notes
Date /Time format is not mirrored in Calendar View
If you enable bi-directional orientation as Right-to Left, the Date/Time format is not mirrored in either the
Calendar View or sidebar "Day-at-a-glance" view.
Lotus Notes
Drag-and-Drop e-mail to Mail, Calendar, To Do bookmarks
The Notes Basic client allows drag-and-drop of e-mail to the Mail, Calendar, and To Do bookmarks, but
this feature is not yet implemented in the Notes 8 client. As a workaround, use the action button More ->
Copy Into New -> Message, Calendar Entry, or To Do.
Lotus Notes
Drag and drop bookmark to empty folder solution
You cannot drag and drop a new bookmark into an empty bookmark subfolder, or as the last bookmark in
a subfolder. However, you can use the context menu to create a bookmark in a new subfolder. Once the
subfolder is no longer empty, you can use drag and drop to create bookmarks in it.
Lotus Notes
Drag and drop from feed reader to IE browser fails
Some links may not drag properly from the feed reader into the internal Web browser when Internet
Explorer is set as the Notes internal browser.
