New user not showing up in Address Books

It is a SBS 2011 Server which is what? Exchange 2007? I just added a user and for some reason he isn't showing up in peoples Outlook 2013 Address Books on the workstations. What do I need to check?

   I did delete some distribution groups the other week. Is there a default distribution group I might have deleted?

The one thing I did find was where to update it in EMC. I did it a second time following the article then manually downloaded the GAL via the article. Still no luck.

(also restarted the Exchange File Distribution service......)

I added the user yesterday at about 4pm. I have restarted the Microsoft Exchange File Distribution service. The powershell script return the following (screenshot)

I am not too worried about it Wayne. It is Public Domain. When running those commands I am logged in as the Domain Administrator. It just doesn't get any more elevated :) My guess would be that the version of PowerShell is too old.

   On a side note something we did along the way seemed to work. Either manually updating the GAL in EMC or restarting the Distribuion Service (or both). He just showed up in the GAL. The server is getting old and slow...... thanks guys.
Glad it worked for you and thanks for the points. Cheers!
