How do i sync Outlook for Mac contacts with apples address book ???

How do I sync outlook for Mac 2011 contacts with Address book.  I updated the itunes or apple updates and it erased my contacts from the address book.  I did have is set up where the they automaticaly updated back and forth but now I can not find how to check this.  Bottom line I want my contacts back to address book. ??????? anyone.

Outlook for Mac doesn't support contact (or calendar) syncing with iCloud because Microsoft  chose not to include the CardDAV (and CalDAV) protocals that are required (see http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2648915).  You'll have to use the OS X Address Book (Contacts) app to sync with iCloud.

  • HT204053 I am unable to sync all contacts on my iMac (which includes outlook for Mac contacts) with my iPad mini, how do I do this, I have enabled icloud on both devices and ticked all the boxes.

    I am unable to sync all contact in my address book on my imac with my ipad mini, it looks like only icloud & yahoo contact sync leaving out the ones in outlook for mac.  I have enabled icloud on both devices and ticked all the boxes.

    Thanks for that, but my Outlook contacts are synced to and all in my mac contacts book, does this not meen they would go to icloud,
    No, they are in the On My Mac account in the Mac Contacts app, not iCloud.
    or are they in a different format despite being in mac contacts?  If so can the outlook contacts be exported in some other way to icloud?
    Outlook is not compatible with iCloud, check Microsofts site if you need more verification.
    If you want them in iCloud use Mac Contacts and move them from On My Mac to iCloud. This will remove them from Outlook.

  • Can't sync Outlook for Mac Calendar with iCloud

    I've just updated my Macbook Pro to OS X and now I can't get my Outlook for Mac 2013 (14.3.9) Calendar to sync with my iPhone 5.  It seems iTunes no longer allows for syncing calendars and it all has to happen via iCloud.  Is this correct?  How do I get them to sync, then?  I've looked in other discussions (from a while ago) and none of those fixes are working.  Thanks in advance!

    Thank you, randers4.  Not the solution I wanted but I am glad to get an answer.  I'd thought that since the support articles I'd seen came out before the latest update (you're right, I do have 2011) that maybe there was a work-around.  Of course all of this has been discovered after I entered my three kids' baseball/softball practice and game schedules into Outlook.  Any quick and dirty way to transfer it all over? 
    Thanks so much for taking the time to answer me.  Copious amounts of time has been wasted on this issue and I'l be glad to move forward. 
    Warmly,

  • How can I transfer outlook-for-mac contacts into the mac agenda?

    I have outlook in my mac, and I would like to transfer outlook contacts into my mac agenda...

    Are you Hispanophone? If so, you should make that clear. I suspect you are talking about Address Book, which in the Spanish-localised version of Mac OS X is called "Agenda". If so, try

  • Syncing Outlook for Mac with a hotmail pop accountto 'mail' on iphone, ipad and ipod

    I'm using Outlook for Mac 2011, with a hotmail account set up as a pop account to my outlook inbox.  I also have that same hotmail account set up on my iphone, ipad and ipod.  Is there a way to sync my e-mail between Outlook for Mac and the 'mail' on my other devices, so that when I delete an email on my computer, it deletes on all devices?
    I'm not so tech savvy and am happy to provide any additional information but am not sure where to start!  I would appreciate any help you can give me.
    Thank you

    First check that all your settings are correct, that contact syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
    Make sure the contacts you are adding are added to your 'iCloud' group and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud group (you can do this by checking in groups), non iCloud contacts will not sync.
    If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your contacts are in the iCloud group, you might try unchecking contact syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling contact syncing.
    This user tip might help you understand how accounts work with Contacts (Address Book).

  • HT1386 When I sync outlook for mac 2011 calendar to iPhone the dates are repeated?

    When I sync outlook for mac 2011 calendar to iPhone the dates are repeated?

    OK, I think I figured it out, with Apple's iCloud instructions and a little help from campus tech support. This only applies to people using Outlook with Microsoft Exchange.
    Enable iCloud on your computer (running Lion) and your iPhone. http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/mac.html
    Then go to your iPhone's Mail icon, click on Add Account > Microsoft Exchange and enter your login info.
    Doing this transferred my work email and calendar to my phone wirelessly.

  • Outlook for Mac Contacts problem

    I am using Outlook for Mac (2011) with an Exchange Account and the contacts General Tab is blank.  The other tabs, such as Organization, Details, etc seem to work fine.  I can also use contacts search, change it to the Enterprise Directory and it works fine?

  • Syncing Outlook Calendars and Contacts with iPhone - There is NO SOLUTION

    I have searched the Apple support forums, Mac Forums, MS forums, spoken to Microsoft Support and iCloud support. Everybody says that there is no way to directly sync Outlook Calendars and Contacts with iPhone and other remote devices and nobody has a work around. I see 100s of forum threads started with this issue, most have no answer and the few that do are not offering solutions. I post this as a final effort to seek a solution! Who will be my savior? Or should I just admit defeat and allow myself to be cast aside in the battle between two giant corporate babies who don't like to play in the same sandbox?
    Is my knight in shining armor out there?!

    The information is correct, MS do not support the Dav standard in Outlook for Mac (but they do in Outlook for Windows), until they add support for it Calendars and Contacts will not work with Outlook for Mac.

  • Is there any way to sync Outlook for Mac with iPhone? I have tried everything but not successful. Apple says it is not possible to sync contacts from Outlook for Mac to iPhone 5. Any help will be much appreciated.

    Is there any way to Sync contacts from Outlook for Mac to iPhone 5? Apple support says that only iTune can only sync contacts from "Contact" which is the default contact of Mac. If one is running Outllok on a Mac machine then it is not possible to sync the contacts with iPhone. It is strange that Apple distributors are promoting and offering machines with promise that Windows users can now run MS Office on Mac machines without any problem. While this is true, it is so strange that one cannot sync the contacts from MacBook Pro to iPhone5. If someone has found a way to sync contacts from Outlook to iPhone 5 please help as it is very frustrating to not be able to sync the contacts. Thanks, Amit.

  • HT3748 since upgrading to Mountain Lion, my Mac Mail no longer works well w/exchange email; so, I have had to switch back to outlook. Now, how can I use outlook for mac's calendar and contacts with icloud?

    Since uprgading to Mountain Lion, my mac mail no longer works with my exchange email properly. I finally gave up and moved back to outlook for mac, but now my new issue is using outlook calendar and contacts with icloud; possible?

    Sorry but I'm really not to sure what I have. I'm not good with knowing my computer model. All I know is that its a MacBook running with Leopard. I got my computer last year so I suppose its fairly new. Is there a place on my computer where I can check to see what it is (sorry to be so dumb with my own mac)
    And everything else works fine. I love Safari. It's just my mail that doesn't work. Here's the message that pop up several times.
    "The MobileMe IMAP server “mail.mac.com” rejected the password for user “akcastaldo”
    Please re-enter your password, or cancel."
    The only problem here is, even though I enter my password it doesn't do anything. It makes that message go away for about 3-5 mins. After that it pops right back up. And I can't even go into my preference and change my email password. So I don't know what to do.

  • How to sync Outlook for Mac 2011 calender with iCal

    I am currently running IOS 10.6.8.
    I use Outlook for Mac 2011 and I have been having problems syncing my appointments with iCal.
    I have outlook set up correctly in the preferences to sync all calendars but this does not appear to happen.

    Here's some screen grabs of the settings I use. I do not use the online iCal calendar. My iphone is synced to outlook and the local ical calendar hosted on my laptop.
    I can enter and receive/accept appointments using any of these three calendars and they all update and sync.
    The calendar called "No category" is my outlook calendar.
    If I enter any appointments they have to be entered on the calendar called "work" on my laptop and phone – otherwise outlook does not pick them up.
    As demichae said in his post above "Outlook doesn't see the stuff in iCal" – at least the online iCal stuff.
    It's not very straightforward.
    Hope this helps.

  • How can I get Outlook for Mac Calendar synced to Google Calendar?

    The Mac calendar produces a view of the Outlook calendar and good syncing. But I cannot find a way of syncing this view with Google calendar. I can get a separate view in Mac Callendar of mt Google calendar adn again good syncing. But I cannot get the Outlook view on Mac calendar across to the google view. What am I missing here?

    Dear Klaus, Many thanks for your response. However as far as I can see the Outlook in this thread is always on a Windows PC. My Outlook is on the Mac.
    I can sync to Mac Calendar V6 with Outlook 2011 for Mac and with Google calendar. But the Google sync and the Outlook sync are in diferent accounts although both visible on the Mac Calendar at the same time. However I cannot find a way of using the Mac Calendar to bidge across from the "On my Mac" account (which is synced with the Outlook for Mac) to the Google account.
    Kind regards, P.

  • Outlook for mac contacts

    I purchased outlook for Mac and can't figure out how to transfert my contacts.

    If you're trying to sync your contacts with iCloud, you won't be able to using Outlook for Mac.  Outlook cannot sync contacts or calendars with iCloud because Microsoft chose not to include the CardDAV and CalDAV protocols necessary to do so (see http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2648915).  If you want to sync these with iCloud you'll have to use the OS X calendar and contacts applications.

  • How can I sync outlook 2007 subfolders, contacts, and calendar to iphone 6

    How do I setup to sync outlook 2007 subfolders, contacts, and calendar to iphone 6?
    Inbox messages will sync but not the sent box from either outlook or iphone.  Also, outlook subfolders are showing up on iphone. 

    Hi,
    you don't need MobileMe or anything fancy. I personally sync my Outlook calendar and my Outlook address book with three computers (two at the office and one at home)and besides I run Office 2003 on one, Office 2007 on the other and Office 2010 on the third, so it can't get more complicated than that, but it works 100%.
    First sync Outlook with iTunes on one computer, having done that when you try to sync it to another machine, iTunes will recognize that it is synced with another computer and ask you if you want to merge the data, say yes, That's all there is to it.
    It does not work for music as you rightly say but as far as Calendars and Contacts are concerned it's flawless and transparent.
    If you hit a snag talk back to me.
    Cheers.

  • How do I sync my calendar and contacts with the calendar and contacts on my phone? My laptop is Mac OS X, 10.6.8 and still has MobileMe on it.

My laptop is Mac OS X, 10.6.8 and still has MobileMe on it. I tried to download iCloud but then I'd have to download and pay for a new OS.
    If anyone could help me with this that would be great.
