Can i push content from icloud to my outlook 2011 on mac?

i'm transitioning from pc to mac.
i bought an imac on which i have installed office 2011.
i want to continue using outlook on my imac.
however, i'm not sure whether to use icloud or office 365 to manage my email, calenders, contacts online.
i have set up an icloud account.
i have also bought a macbook pro, which will serve as my work laptop replacing my hp laptop.
my hardware setup is a home desktop (imac) which will be my main work computer at home.
my macbook pro will be my portable work laptop i will use on travel work.
i have an iphone which i'm only using as an itouch, since my provider is tmobile and they don't support iphones.
i will also be using an ipad 3 for on location assignments.
i want an email setup which will allow me to manage all my different email accounts, calenders, contacts online, but that will sync with my outlook on my mac as opposed to mac mail, ical, address book.
i'm used to working on outlook and would like to continue to use it on my mac.
but i don't know if icloud is the solution? i don't know if icloud will push my content to outlook 2011 on mac?
please HELP??????

julian,
thank you very much for your reply.
nevertheless, just because i went through all the efforts of switching to a mac platform, yes it's true that i do want to try something different, however that does not mean i want to stop using a software that i find very useful.
microsoft has created office 2011 for mac in order to appeal to people like me....but they have stopped short by not allowing outlook for mac to work with industry standard protocols which icloud uses.
therefore, to be honest, outlook is more important to me for managing my contacts, calender and emails than icloud is. i guess i will now have to consider using office 365 as a cloud option which i hope will sync with my outlook on mac version.
i will then be able to manage my emails, contacts, calender via the web, which i can access via web on ipad, macbook pro, iphone, etc....
this may need to be my solution until microsoft updates outlook to work with icloud.
that is unless anyone else has another option i could consider??????
OPEN TO SUGGESTIONS????
thanks again.

  • I can't import Microsoft Ofice X Entourage into Outlook 2011 for Mac

    I'm trying to import tasks from Microsoft Office X for Mac Entourage into Microsoft Office fo Mac 2011 Outlook and I'm failing miserably. It seems like Outlook only wants to import from Entourage 2004, Entourage 2008, or an Entourage archive. Entourage X doesn't seem to be able to archive?

    You may have to do it the hard way. Launch Entourage X (which of course requires booting into something other than Lion). For each folder you've created for your Inbox, create a folder on the desktop by the same name.
    Click on the folders one at a time in Entourage. Highlight any email and then press Command+A to select all of them. Drag the emails out of Entourage to the folder by the same name on the desktop. Repeat for each email folder you have. Next, export your contacts and save that to the desktop.
    Move or copy all of the data from the desktop to someplace you can get at it from Lion
    Restart in Lion and launch Outlook. Create Inbox folders that match the names of the folders you created on your desktop. Drag the contents of each folder into the appropriate email folder in Outlook. Import your contacts.

    Hi
    I lost all my contacts etc on my Iphone 4, how can I retrieve them from Icloud, and how can I check the content of my Icloud backup copy?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Your back up via iCloud is only for use for restoring your phone after wiping it. You can't inspect or utilise specific parts of the back up.

  • How can I access documents from iCloud on my iPad.

    how can I download docs from icloud drive on my iPad and edit them on ipad.

    Hello Kalsulkar,
    To use iCloud Drive and to work with documents, you will need the corresponding Pages, Keynote and Numbers iOS apps or third party iOS apps that support iCloud Drive to interact with those documents. To access the content, you would need to open one of those apps to see all the documents that are available to you for that specific app. Take a look at the article below for more information.

  • HT1296 can i sync content from "safe note" app from iPod to iPhone?

    can i sync content from "safe note" app from iPod to iPhone?

    No.
    If you aren't syncing contacts with a supported address book app on your computer, and/or not syncing contacts over the air with an email account on your iPhone that supports this with a number of accounts that do which are free including a free Apple iCloud account, and your iPhone's backup is not being done wirelessly with a free Apple iCloud account and you don't have a backup for your iPhone on a computer, your contacts will be lost.

  • Can't open files from iCloud Drive on Mac

    Hi,
    Can't open file from iCloud Drive on my MacBook Air (OS X 10.10.1).
    I created new file (in Numbers for example). Then Numbers->File->Open->iCloud Drive->my_file.numbers and it says "Can't open file my_file.numbers".
    I can preview the file by pressing Space, but openning from application and double-click on it doesn't work.
    Files that were created earlear also not opened.
    Does anybody know how to solve this problem? thanks.

    Using smtp.mail.me.com - also tried smtp.me.com
    SSL yes
    port 587
    SMTP Authentification Yes
    Security SLS/TLS - also tried STARTTLS
    User full **@me.com email address - also tried user name without @me.com
    I have spoken to apple support this afternoon and we tried the variations shown above.
    Support told me to wait for a day and try again!
    After the iCloud authentication problem last night I changed all my passwords I wonder if there is an SMTP problem at me.com perhaps not reading the updated passwords?
    I'll try and use the old passwords later.

  • My iTunes got deleted off a (no longer working) computer. Is there a way I can transfer all content from my iPhone onto iTunes on a new computer? I want to update my phone, but do not want to lose any music off it when syncing it.

    My iTunes got deleted off a (no longer working) computer. I have lost all music & data that was on this original itunes. Is there a way I can transfer all content from my iPhone (music & photos) onto iTunes on a new computer? I want to update my iphone (3GS), but do not want to lose any music off it when syncing it. Help please!!

    By design, the iphone will sync itunes content with one computer at a time. Any attempt to sync such content with a second computer will result in ALL itunes content being first erased from your phone & then replaced with the content from the second computer. This is a design feature and cannot be overridden. Because you are using a new computer, your phone will see this computer as a "new" computer. The itunes content sync is one way: computer to phone. If you have photos that were synced to your phone or music ripped on your own that were not backed up, you will first have to extract them from your phone using third party software, before you do anything else, as Apple makes no provision to do so:
    http://www.wideanglesoftware.com/touchcopy/index.php
    Once you've done that, do the following in the order specified:
    1. Disable auto sync when an iPod/iPhone is connected under iTunes>Preferences(under the edit menu if using Windows)>Devices in itunes.
    2. Make sure you have one contact & one event in the supported applications(Address Book & iCal or Outlook, Windows Address Book) on your computer. These entries can be fake, doesn't matter, the important point is that these programs not be empty.
    3. Connect your phone, iTunes running, DO NOT SYNC at this point.
    4. Store>Authorize this computer.
    5. File>Transfer Purchases(To make sure all purchased content on your phone will be in your itunes library).
    6. Right click in the device pane & select reset warnings.
    7. Right click again and select backup.
    8. Right click again & select restore from backup, select the backup you just made. When prompted to create another backup, decline.
    9. This MUST be followed by a sync to restore your itunes content, which you select from the various tabs, You'll get a popup regarding your contacts & calendars asking to merge or replace, select merge.
    You should be good to go.

    I just bought this ipad and cannot log out from icloud because i dont have the password.how can i log out from icloud?need help

    You need to return it to the seller and get your money back.  You cannot reset or use the device with another AppleID installed unless you know the password for that ID.
    If the device has been jailbroken, no one on here can give you any further help...the Terms of Use prohibit us from doing so.

    Not quite sure exactly what you want to do, but you cannot do it on a PowerBook. iCloud requires Lion and Lion requires an Intel MacBook or MacBook Pro.
