I have been using the following keys to shift between various applications on my computer. Ctrl-1/Email; Ctrl-3/Contacts; Ctrl-4/Tasks and so on. I use Ctrl-2 to shift to Calendar from Email. When I do so, the navigation bar changes to Calendar but the view on the computer screen stays Email. Can you help my fix it?
Please help of the proper use of Microsoft Outlook shorcuts.
