Syncing Hangs in Outlook 2011 for Mac

When I try to sync iPhone with Outlook for Mac 2011 it always hangs on the "syncing calendars" step. This is with 10.7.3 , Outlook version 14.2.1, the latest update. Anyone else have this problem, and even better, anyone solve it?
Thanks

My iPhone 4 was working fine, synched with Outlook 2011 on my iMac 11.02 through iTunes. Calendar changes also appeared in iCal, even though I don't use iCal - I only use Outlook. Last week I was prompted to update Outlook, which I did successfully. Today, I plugged the iPhone into the iMac to synch and suddenly all Calendar and Contact items are gone from the iPhone and in iCal on the iMac. In iTunes, the option to synch with Outlook in the Info tab ("other") is greyed out. What happened? Why can't I synch the iPhone anymore with Outlook? All the Calendar and Contact info is still on the iMac in Outlook. Help!

Sync Notes in Outlook 2011 for Mac with BB Q5

As per KB27248, Notes in Outlook 2011 for Mac are not synced with BB devices running OS7 (although Contacts, Calendar & Tasks sync), & the issue hasn't been resolved.
Does this issue exist on Q5 running OS10?

Hey hpujary.
Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
At this time, only contacts can be synchronized with BlackBerry Link software and a BlackBerry 10 Smartphones. The functionality to provide more options for PIM synchronization may be added in the future. I cannot say for certain that the issue outlined in KB27248 is resolved for BlackBerry 10 Smartphones as the functionality does not exist to confirm.
Cheers.

Need help syncing iCal and Outlook 2011 (for Mac) THANKS!

QUESTION: How do I sync iCal and Outlook up again without duplicating any more events, and very importantly, without sending any more email invitations?
I just bought an iPhone. I am trying to get my phone and my MacBook Pro synced up through iCloud.
I realize that I need to have Outlook 2011 and iCal set up for syncing for this to work.
I did this at one point, and it resulted in all of my ALL DAY appointments being duplicated in Outlook, iCal, and on the calendar on my phone - and iCloud sending out duplicate invitations to events.
Then, I turned syncing between iCal and Outlook and deleted all of the duplicates in my Outlook.
Of course, because I haven't set up Outlook to sync with iCal, iCal and my phone's calendar have not changed. There are still duplicates there.
How do I sync them up again without duplicating any more events, and very importantly, without sending any more email invitations?
Thanks in advance for any help you can be!
Cheers!

Outlook 2011 for Mac Sync

I purchased a Q10 several weeks ago and still cannot get it to sync with my Outlook 2011 for Mac. I have installed the latest update to Blackberry Link but as was the case when I first tried the calendar and contact sync section is greyed out. I can sync it with a Windows PC with no problems but I really need it to sync with the data on my Macbook Pro.
I would appreciate knowing whether this is even possibe or what I might be doing wrong. I am running OSX 10.8.5.
Thanks

two ways of doing this, you could try http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2452489, or drag each individual calendar event into iCal. You can't do multiple items has to be one... at... a... time.

Using Outlook 2011 for mac and syncing blackberry very slow

I just bought 2 pcs of Mcabook pro. one for me and second for my cousin. we both have same office usage.i have installed office 2011. i use contacts / events / tasks of outlook and sync it with my blackberry curve. previously i was using Windows OS and i am so much used to it with its easy functionalities. Since last 15 days i have not done any work in my office as all time i am just involved in setting up one or another thing in my Macbook. i am really so much fed up and frustrated that i am thinking of switching back to Windows. i have some current issues like
Airport disconnects automatically anytime. after then i have to restart the system that is the only way. it shows as connected but i dont find my home network or internet. after restarting it works !!! it happens 4-5 times in a day...
Sync with blackberry is very slow. i do have Approx 2500 contacts / 300 tasks and 10-15 events. but it takes approx 10 times more time than i was doing with Windows.
in the blackberry desktop manager there is only one option of syncing i.e. Two way sync. what if i only want to transfer data from Macbook to Blackberry or from Blackberry to Macbook?
data sync is not perfect also. every time some entries goes missing.
i want to use ical for events and tasks.. but i dont find List view for events which is not convinient.
i have my e mails in Outlook 2011 for mac. what if i want to transfer my mail to mail for mac?
i will be obliged if anyone can help and show that my INR 70000.00 * 2 is not wasted... Frustrated Really...

Good luck with that.

How do you sync iCloud (contact, calendar, task) to outlook 2011 for Mac? and how do you make seemless sync between iCloud to Outlook 2011 to Blackberry device or an iPad?

I have three device: Macbook Pro (OSX 10.7.5) for work; an iPad and a Blackberry for mobile. I used mail, iCal, and Address Book combine with mobileme (iCloud) to exchange data such as contact, calendar and task from my Mackbook Pro to my iPad but never to Blackberry. The problem is my boss was asking me to change to Outlook 2011 for Mac because some of the email that I sent from Mail did not appear in my client's Blackberry. So how do you sync iCloud (contact, calendar, task) to Outlook 2011 for Mac? and how do you make seemless sync between iCloud to Outlook 2011 to Blackberry device or an iPad?
Best regards,
W. Sasongko

Microsoft Outlook 2011 for Mac sync Contacts and Calendar issues

OK, so I have a Macbook Pro with OS X Mountian Lion. I have Microsoft Outlook 2011 for Mac installed. Asked @BlackberryHelp on Twitter how to sync my Blackberry Torch with Outlook as it seems to default to using the builtin Apple Contacts and Calendar instead of Outlook. So they sent me the link to KB19148: "How to synchronize organizer data in Microsoft Office for Mac between the BlackBerry smartphone and a Mac computer using BlackBerry Desktop Software". So I turned on the Sync Services in Outlook and it gave me the dialog box confirming that everything was synced. And it appeared to copy and sync whatever Contacts in the Apple Contacts and calendar entries in the Apple Calendar into Outlook and vice versa. Cool since that's what I wanted.
Then I tried using the Blackberry Desktop Manager to sync everything to my Blackberry Torch 9810. Everything looked like it synced until I opened my Blackberry and all my Contacts were gone. Same with my Calendar entries, except that the Calender entries were hit and miss to whatever copied over (some Calendar entries were missing and others were duplicates). Checked the Apple Contacts and all of them were gone. But when I opened Outlook, everything was there and all OK.
So am I missing something? Turning on Sync Services in Outlook should sync all my Contacts and Calendar with my Blackberry when I use Blackberry Desktop Manager, correct? So why is it still syncing with the Apple Contacts and Calendar (and why did it delete all my Apple Contacts and mess up my Apple Calendar)?
Good thing I backed everything up first so restored everything. But I have all my updated Contacts and Calendar in Outlook and I still need to sync all of that. I don't want to manually do it. So how do I fix this??

After a bit of googling I think you mean the notation "domain\username", i.e., a backslash separator but no leading backslash.
I am not familiar with that notation but apparently it is valid in some contexts. I googled "os x "domain\username"" to confirm this notation. Here's one of the hits that shows the notation:
OS X Lion: Guidelines for connecting to a DFS namespace via SMB
I think "DFS" is a distributed file system. That's as much as I know about this.

Outlook 2011 for mac calendar and iPhone 6 sync

Dear All,
Actually this is very simple question. But unfortunatelly nobody ( Apple and MS side ) answered me clearly.
So i want to be sure that there is "no way" to synchronize the Outlook 2011 for Mac "Calendars" with my iPhone6 via iTunes or any other way.
This was possible old iTunes before, but the new iTunes and Yosemite are not give this chance. So why ? what happened ?
Please tell me "clearly" IF there is a way. and please specify one by one.
Thank you very much.
PS: I am not an exchange user, i am a POP user.

When I create a new calendar named project under google agenda, I can add it under iCal in the "google" header. that's ok.

Using outlook 2011 for Mac and iCloud

Hello all,
I am starting a new job and the office uses Outlook 2011 for Mac. I am looking for a calendar solution so that I can use the invitation features in Outlook, but have my calendar available on my iPhone and iPad.
I have searched on these forums and it seems that Outlook 2011 is not compatible with iCloud. So for a workaround, I wonder if there is a good (or, better yet, excellent) calendar app for iPhone and iPad that will sync with the Outlook calendar on my Mac?
btw all devices are running the latest OS.
Thanks!
Ella

Copy all events on to just one calendar and use that. Remember to put it in the iCloud account and the On My Mac account.
