    Everytime I type in I'll in Outlook 2011 in "Plain" format not HTML it types it and looks like its autocorrects and locks the keyboard until I put the cursor up in that line and backspace and delete the correction..

    I'Ll then it adds a linebreak too;

    That is what I'll I'll and I'll does when I type it in Outlook 2011. All latest updates. :/

    Very frustrating!!!

    Here's a video so you can see what it's doing.. :)

    I just opened up Outlook 2011 to see if I could replicate the 'error' and had no luck.

    Go into Outlook's preferences (cmd+,) and go to the autocorrect tab. You can check and see if there is an entry for I'll to be replaced with I'Ll. If there is, just highlight it and press the minus (-) to delete it:

    I'll or I'Ll wasn't in there (checked autocorrect, exceptions, and autoformat), but turning off "Replace text as you type" seemed to have fixed it. Thanks! :)
