This just happened out of the blue. I've been on Mavericks since its introduction and I've had Outlook for Mac 2011 for over two years. I am not aware of any changes in the system that occurred prior to this. Then yesterday it (Outlook for Mac 2011) started crashing with the popup to send a report to Microsoft. Outlook for Mac 2011 crashes within about fifteen seconds after bring it up.
For the past few months, Maxwell’s been filming season 17 of “Project Runway,” for which he was cast as a judge alongside Karlie Kloss, Christian Siriano, Nina Garcia and Elaine Welteroth.
It seems to do so during the 'send and receive mail.' Many web searches led me to Microsoft KB 2409331.
I followed the steps all the way with no real answer. The files it asked me to relocate did not exist where I was told to look. I rebuilt the database (bring up with Option key) and that did not help. I did find one thing that works - as soon as I bring Outlook for Mac 2011 up, I quickly set it to 'work offline'. Then it doesn't crash. So, there's something related to the Send and Receive and I am at wits end trying to figure out what it is.
Moved 'Microsoft User Data' to desktop. Opened Outlook. It created a new 'Microsoft User Data'. Old 'Microsoft User Data' was 7 GB's.
New one was only 22MB's. Outlook worked, so I deleted the desktop version to save disk space - AND IT WIPED OUT ALL MY ACCOUNT DATA, ALL EMAILS, ETC. So, I simply added each account back.
Comcast re-added fine with no problem. GMAIL CAUSES A CRASH ON THE SEND AND RECEIVE. Delete Gmail and it works fine. Add again and crashed on Send and Receive. Very reproducible. that I cannot use Gmail in Outlook.
Glad you got it sorted in spite of not getting answers here. I think the problem is that not a lot of people here use Outlook.
As Office is not an Apple product, I always recommended asking in the Microsoft Office:Mac forums here: Everyone there is a Mac user AND an Office user, something you can't say about Apple's forums. You will get the fastest help there and I think you will find the contributors more than helpful. Might want to bookmark that link and use it for faster responses to Office:Mac questions.

Microsoft just released a new version of Outlook for Mac, although this one is only available to Office 365 customers. Since the first thing most geeks will want to do is add their Gmail account, here are the quick instructions on how to do that. Once you launch New Outlook for Mac the first time, you’ll be prompted to login with your Office 365 account to validate your license. After you do that, however, you are presented with a blank Outlook Window. Using the Tools tab, click on Accounts.
And then click on Other Email. Enter in your Gmail details here. If you are using, you will need to. If you have a Gmail account that doesn’t end in @gmail, however, you will need to manually enter all of the details. User name: your full email address. Incoming server: imap.gmail.com. Incoming server port: (check the “Use SSL to connect” option) – 993.
Outgoing server: smtp.gmail.com. Outgoing server: Override default port, use 465. Outgoing server: Check the box for Use SSL to connect. For the more visually inclined, make it look like this: You’ll need to also click that tiny “More Options” button at the bottom, and change Authentication to “Use Incoming Server Info.” At this point you’ll have email access in Outlook for Mac. What you won’t have, however, is Calendar or Contacts. At this point there appears to be no way to add either of them natively.
