Cannot edit icloud events in outlook 2013

I have a new surface pro 3 running office 365, which I'm told by Microsoft store is just a license of Office 2013, and that there shouldn't be unique hardware compatibility issues with icloud.
All of my data has been in icloud, my family has iphones and macs as well as pcs. I'm trying to operate on both MS and OS/iOS platforms.
The icloud control panel program is installed and all of my email folders and calendars and contacts populated Outlook after some work..
However, when attempting to edit any calendar appointment in Outlook on one of my iCloud calendars I get an error:
"This item cannot be saved to this folder. The folder was deleted or moved, or you do not have permission. Do you want to save a copy of it in the default folder for the item?"
Saying yes to this makes a copy of the appointment, as edited, in the default Outlook calendar, for which I have no use as it will no longer be shared with the appropriate party as the icloud calendar is. I need the appointment to stay where it is, but just accept the changes.
A few weeks ago a senior apple tech told me that icloud control panel does not support the surface when that seemed like the question to ask. After reading countless frustrated threads like this one, it seems that support of Outlook 2013 is the issue, although an 18 month old issue at that.
Any suggestions? Many thanks

Hi,
Sorry for the inconvenience caused. We'll try our best to resolve the problem.
Can you see the read emails from web access?
What happens when you click "All"? Did you get a message "We didn't find anything to show here"?
Please try to switch to another View to check if the issue persists. Click
VIEW tab > Change View > select another view to check if the "All" works properly.
We can also try to start Outlook with /cleanviews command-line switch to check the result. Exit Outlook, press Windows key + R to open the Run command and then type
outlook.exe /cleanviews, press Enter to check if this fix the problem.
Please let me know the result.

HT204150 icloud sync to outlook 2013 errors in setup

I was having some issues with icloud syncing with outlook 2013 on my windows 8 PC, so i uninstalled it and re-installed.   Ever since then, i have not been able to even get icloud for windows set up. I keep getting an error in the final stage of the setup after i tick the box on outlook calendar, contacts and tasks in the control panel. The error i get is: "Your setup couldn't be started because the iCloud server stopped responding." When I hit the report button, the following eror comes up in the email: Error: 0x80004005: HTTP Error 503.
have uninstalled, restarted, downloaded a fresh version and re-installed then restarted again but this didn't work.
Any new ideas?
thanks

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
I am sorry to have to reference you to these materials:
KB12268 Synchronization support for BlackBerry Desktop Software for Windows
http://us.blackberry.com/software/desktop/desktop-pc/system-requirements.html
You will notice that Outlook 2013 does not appear in any of that. Which means it is not supported. Which means it cannot be expected to function.
Again, sorry.

TS3999 when will iCloud work with outlook 2013?

when will iCloud work with outlook 2013?

I have been running Outlook 2013 for a couple of weeks now using W8 64bit.
It works with iCloud and is a little flakey, what I've found.
1. 4 X Junk Folders.
2. Some emails cannot be moved into saved folder, saying message has changed, but opening in outlook safe
mode allows move.
3. Sent Items (this computer only) and Sent Messages, so you have to move emails from Sent Items to Sent
Messages if you want them to sync across devices.
4. Icloud control panel say's there is a problem and not syncing but it is no problem.
I can live with the bugs, but I wish the last icloud update would have corrected the issues.

Cannot edit calendar events on iphone

Cannot edit calendar events on iphone with most of the calendars, one personal calendar has the Edit button available but only on a few events--not all. We hosting the calendars through an ical server, running OSX 10.5.8.
The software is up to date on the computer and on the iphone. Any ideas how to get the edit feature to appear?

The edit feature was working correctly with the calendars and stopped. Performed a sync through iTunes removing syncing preferences first. Did not resolve the issue. I am considering restoring the iphone.

Why won't icloud work with outlook 2013 on a PC anymore? It worked prior to windows 8.1 update.

Would like to add that I have tried unloading outlook 2013, reinstalling itunes and icloud and still get the "install could not start do to unexpected error" when trying to install icloud controll panel and sync.

I have windows 8.1 and having installed icloud 3.0 cannot view my contacts in Outlook 2013

I have windows 8.1 and having installed icloud 3.0 cannot view my contacts in Outlook 2013

This fixed the issue:
1. sign out of iCloud. (make sure you are really signed out or it won't work!)
2. open Outlook and make sure iCloud is not listed in Account Settings
3. close Outlook
4. sign in to iCloud and let it set up Outlook sync
You shouldn't need to reinstall anything. Just remember that when you first look at your calendar/contacts in Outlook it will default to show your Outlook (saved locally) calendar and contacts. You may need to select iCloud to see them.

Frozen out menu ribbon in Word 2013 and cannot preview word documents in Outlook 2013

I seem to be having a recurring problem with Word 2013 from Office Home Edition single user. When I try to put a caption on a table, the entire document page layout changes from portrait to something close to landscape and then the entire menu ribbon freezes
out. I usually have to save the file, close and reopen using the open and repair feature as the document only opens in read only after this incidence happens. Since the first time I experienced this in early July, I haven't been able to preview Word files
in office outlook 2013 and the protected mode feature hasn't worked since then either.
Can I get some help with this please? I reinstalled, did online fixing and tried a few other fixes to no avail. Could it have started as a result of my installing a trial version of Office Visio which comes as a totally different package from my Home edition?
Thank you

... When I try to put a caption on a table, the entire ...
Is this the only action that will result in the issue? Does this happen to any Word documents?
The first thing that I'd suggest you to do is to install any available updates to your system and Office installation, and then verify result.
Then, please check if you have any add-ins integrated with your Word 2013 (please note that some programs might install add-ins automatically), try in safe mode and see if issue was caused by some add-in conflicts:

Cannot open Icloud calendar in outlook 2010 since upgrade to win 8.1

Since upgrading to Windows 8.1 cannot open iCloud calendars or contacts. I get "This set of folders cannot be opened. Theinformation store could not be opened."

I uninstalled iCloud control panel, removed any iCloud folders from Outlook, rebooted the computer nad then downloaded and installed the latest iCloud for windows.After going through the reinstall steps and setting up iCloud, Outlook seems to sync with iCloud.

Cannot receive email in my Outlook 2013 Inbox

I am running Windows 8 and using Outlook 2013, IMAP. My laptop has stopped receiving emails; they do not show up in the inbox. Nothing had changed; it just stopped working. I can send emails, but emails received since this problem started are not in my Outlook
Inbox. Emails prior to this are visible in the Inbox, however.
I have checked the port settings, root path directory, and other Outlook settings. I have disabled all add-ins. When I log into my email via webmail, the emails are in the IMAP Inbox. I have checked the Account, and Outlook logs in and sends an email test
message correctly; it appears on my mobile phone, but not in my Outlook Inbox.
I ran the Outlook repair tool, and it fixed a minor issue. Nothing has worked here. Any ideas appreciated.

The quickest way to test this email account using the least amount of time is to create a new Outlook profile and configure the Imap account. A new .OST file will be created. Simply make the new profile the default so it's used the next time Outlook is opened.
There's no requirement to delete the original profile and in fact - DO NOT delete the old profile since you will lose your contacts/calendar/tasks at this stage.
The above scenario won't identify exactly "why" things stopped working but at least you'll know very quickly whether it's profile related or not. If you only have one email account and your "mail" component works then you'll need to do
the following to get your old contacts/calendar/tasks contained in the old profile since these are only stored "locally".
From within the original Outlook profile (the one where the Mail component has stopped working)
- create a new PST file
- copy the contacts/calendar/task folders from your original OST to the new PST
- close Outlook and switch to the new working Profile
- from the new profile - open the PST file
File --> Open & Export --> Open Outlook Data File (select the new PST file that was created
- copy the contents of those folders to the equivalent folders in the OST file (those will show as (This Computer Only) - when done
- right-click on the root of the PST file --> close
OR.........................(something to seriously consider regardless)
- instead of copying the items from the PST file to the OST file click on
File --> Account Settings --> Data Files tab --> make the PST file the "default" for the profile
(that will result in the contact/calendar/task folders being the default eliminating the risk of losing this data in the event you ever inadvertently delete the Imap account that created the OST file. You can't open an OST file separately if the email account
ever gets deleted nor can it be assigned when re-configuring the account the way you can using a POP account.)

Cannot access read emails in Outlook 2013

I have Outlook 2013 and cannot read my read emails. The "ALL" tab at the top does NOT work. I have even done a search using the senders email and it still does not find it. This is crazy to not have access after reading an email.
What good is an email program if you can not do that. I will not renew my subscription to such a lousy email program.

ICloud issues using Outlook 2013 calendar

I am running win7 (64bit) and Outlook 2013, using gmail / IMAP. I successfully installed and configured the iCloud control panel 3.1 and I am able to sync up my outlook calendar with my iPhone and iPad. However, I now can’t receive or send invites from/to other people from Outlook or my i-devices. If someone sends me a calendar invite, it never shows up on the outlook calendar/i-devices and conversely if I send an invite to someone other than myself from either Outlook or any of my i-devices the recipient never gets it. I noticed after configuring iCloud that my local Outlook calendar disappeared and ended up in my gmail “trash folder” after the iCloud program uploaded my calendar to iCloud.
I followed all available tips I could find to solve this problem but no luck. If anybody has a similar issue and found a cure, please let me know – any help is much appreciated!

Cannot edit imported events

I'm not sure if this is a bug or not but wondering if others are having this issue.
When I import an event (for example from evite.com) it gets entered into my calendar. However, I am unable to edit the event. I can't change the location, time, or any other category. I'm guessing this is because it sees the event as not belonging to me.
I should be able to edit an event regardless of ownership. It's on my calendar. If iCal warned me that I shouldn't edit it, that's one thing. But not allowing me to edit it is another.
I was able to make the necessary changes through MobileMe, but I shouldn't have to do this.
Is this a bug?

I have the same issue. Specifically, I cannot edit events imported from facebook using the "Export" link. I wouldn't call it a bug as much as an ease of use issue/poor design. I just performed a work-around that was kludgey, but worked. I don't know if all the steps are necessary, but here's what I did. I copied the event and pasted it into another calendar. I then double-cliecked the event to view it. Facebook auto-populates the attendees field, so when I pasted it into the new calendar, it let me add or delete new attendees and click send. Even though I deleted the attendee, it still sent an email to them saying the event was cancelled (?!), but then, after it was sent, I double-clicked the event and the send button changed to an update button and all the fields were editable. So I changed everything and clicked update. This time it did not send an email and changed the event info, including putting it back in the original calendar. After that, every time I double-click the event, it's editable (no edit button) with a done button. Weird. Every other event has an edit button to make changes. I definitely think this is just poor design.

Cannot migrate data from Microsoft Outlook 2013

I'd very much like to use Thunderbird, however once it is installed and I try to import my Outlook 2013 data (contacts, folders, etc.) I receive this message:
"Either there is no default mail client or the current mail client cannot fulfill the message request. Please run Microsoft Outlook and set it as the default mail client."
I have followed all the steps I found online to ensure Outlook is in fact my default client, but the message persists. I have searched for Add-Ons and have come up empty. I am running Windows 8.1.
I'm not going to switch over to Thunderbird if it can't do something as simple as move my data from one program to another on the same computer.

First you have to export your data from Outlook
then you can import them in Tbird.

Cannot edit iCal events on iPhone 3G with OS 5.0

Now that I've upgraded by iPhone 3G to OS 5.0, I cannot edit events on the phone that were created in iCal on my MacBook Air (running Lion). How do I fix this?

The edit feature was working correctly with the calendars and stopped. Performed a sync through iTunes removing syncing preferences first. Did not resolve the issue. I am considering restoring the iphone.

Unable to search icloud inbox in Outlook 2013, Windows 8.1

HI,
I hope someone can help, I've been struggling with this for a few weeks.
I largely use my iPad and iPhone for email but have recently been more reliant on my Windows laptop as I have need to create items in office and it's simply easier on the large screen.
Outlook and iCloud integration has however been a constant source of frustration. I have almost got it, including the work around to subscribe to the sent items folder and create a rule.
The one thing now causing me frustration is that I am unable to search the iCloud inbox. When I type a search string it simply sits in 'searching' even though the message is there. This is strange as I can search all other iCloud folders and even right clicking on a message and selecting find messages in conversation works.
I have tries rebuilding the index.
As a side note, as it might be related, every time I open Outlook I receive the message 'For best performance, iCloud should not be set as the default data file. You can change this setting in Windows Control Panel under Mail, Data Files.' As I'm not sure what this means I've not done this.
I'm sure I can't be the only person with this frustration and I really hope someone has a neat solution.
Thanks for reading and hope to get a response soon.

I have had the same problem.
I have deleted the icloud account in Outlook and reinstalled it again by "icloud system control".
Now I am able to access my icloud calender, etc. again.
Hope this helps, best, Peter.
