Are you sure you configured your POP/SMTP/IMAP connection correctly for what you are using?

yes, outlook just won't recognize that i am connected to the internet. i've changed my network adapter in parallels to the airport and i can connect to the internet but outlook just won't connect.

Sorry if this sounds obvious, but quite a few times I've seen people have the 'Offline' option checked in the File menu and so Outlook refuses to even TRY and go online. Uncheck that and they're happy campers

no that is fine. I can't even get to that point. Outlook won't even start up because it says it can't becuase my folders don't work offline. I am really not sure what to do at this point.
