FIX FOR OUTLOOK CONTACT - CALENDAR SYNC PROBLEMS

OK Guys. I have figured out the problem with Itunes not syncing the OUTLOOK CONTACTS & CALENDAR EVENT PROBLEM (For those who have this problem). So without further due....
1) Go to Outlook/Tools/Option/Others/Advanced Options/ADDIN MANAGER
2) Remove the check box in front of "OR Stuffit OL Extention" and click OK
3)Go to COMS ADD IN and you should now be able to CHECK MARK the OUTLOOK ITUNES SYNC ADDIN.
Click OK all the way back to OutLook AND SYNC.
If it worked for you, kindly leave me good feedback. Happy 4th everyone.
Philippe

Let me complement my post with some info that might have help performing the above fix.
I spend about 3 hours on the phone troubleshooting this issue with Apple Iphone team last night. Before I found the FIX myself, They had me do the following:
(XP OS ONLY)
Exercise # 1:
Go to ADD/REMOVE PROGRAMS:
Remove Itune software
Remove all IPOD related software
Remove all APPLE related software
remove Quicktime
reboot
Reinstall Itunes.
Exercise # 2:
Reboot Iphone
Exercise #3:
Restore Iphone (Make sure there is nothing that you cannot get back on the Iphone before Restoring and make sure you have Internet connection as the Iphone is restored from
Good luck

Schedule for Outlook 2011 calendar sync?

Hi
Has anyone seen a schedule for Outlook 2011 to sync calendars with iPhone?
If you were thinking of getting the version of Office for MAC that has Outlook 2011 you might want to hold off for while.
It seems Microsoft left it that bit out...
thanks for any scuttlebut on this...
Clive

I'm having the same issues. Can't sync iphone with Outlook 2011 calendars nor can I sync with google calendar. I switched from ical and apple mail because Outlook offers a better user experience. But not being able to synch with mobile me or iphone is crippling. When will they fix this?

3GS, Windows 7, Outlook 2007, Calendar Syncing Problems

As above, Sync completes with no issues, Contacts all sync with 2007 fine, but Calendar entries are not syncd either way.
Info Tab in iTunes 10 (latest version just downloaded)has tick in the box to say sync caledars
Please Help!

I had this same problem. The Genius Bar at the Apple store told me the problem was with Outlook. I upgraded my computer with Microsoft Office 2010 and my problem was solved. Fortunately for me I was able to get this upgrade at a steep discount thru an employee discount program. Others won't be so lucky and this "solution" could prove to be rather expensive.
I say this problem was caused by Apple failing to maintain backward compatibility with existing platforms that their IPhone customers are currently using. After all, not all IPhone users ONLY use Apple computers and this problem only occurred after updating the software on my phone to version 4.2.1 and I Tunes to version 10 on my computer.

Outlook 2003 + iPhone calendar sync problem solved

Here is how I solved my sync problem. Seems a lot of people have the same problem here with Outlook sync suddenly not working after it worked fine for a long time.
I've had Outlook 2003 calendar sync with my iPhone for a few month without any problem, but a few days ago the sync suddenly stopped without any error message. iTunes Diagnostic found no problem and I followed all the steps that Apple outlines to fix the problem but nothing worked (TS2776).
As Apple asked to, I created a new user account on my Windows machine and setup a few test calendar entries to sync with my iPhone. That all worked fine.
So I did what Apple doesn't tell you, and I copied my original Outlook Data file (.PST) over to my new user account and tried to sync that one. Now this didn't work. So I knew the problem lies somewhere in my PST file.
I have then tried to create a new one from scratch in my original Windows account, and copy all the data over. Again, it didn't work. So I emptied the file again, and copied all my calendar entries over to the new PST file in batches (first 10, then another 10, etc).
What I found at the end is that one single calendar entry I created a few days ago caused my sync to stop working. Once I removed this entry, everything worked fine again. Don't ask me what was wrong with it (I made a backup just in case Apple wants to see it), but now everything works again.
If you want to save some time to find which one it is, you may start deleting entries that you created just recently before it stopped working.
Hope that helps.

Hi im having the same problem. I use outlook 2003 on windows xp and until recently my sync (using usb) was working fine. Now it would seem that calendar items are no longer syncing. can you give any further details of the calendar entry which was causing your problem? im wondering if it was added on a certain date perhaps.
I am running the inbox repair tool to see if my pst file has any problems but would appreciate any other help in the mean time.
Cheers

Hello Antonio;
After many, many test I discovered that the problem, at least in my case it is caused by the new ACR 4.5. Please read the Thread that I post under Camera Raw. I include the link below.
I also open two Bug Reports about this, but as usual Adobe (and other Software Companies) will never take responsability for this, until one day they release a new version with "enhancements".

Problems syncing Outlook contacts, calendar etc with IPHONE?

After trying many options to fix this problem, the following was determined: If you were previously using another type of PDA/Smartphone with Outlook, your IPHONE may not properly sync your calendar, contacts, etc. For whatever reason, there is a conflict. SOLUTION: you need to save/export your contact/calendar info, then completely delete everything out of Outlook, then import back in. I wasnt able to do this w/2007, instead I exported and then made a new user profile (on my computer) and then dragged my saved files there. A minor pain in the a$$, but oh well. Thought I would pass this along, as it has to ******* someone else off as well! Good luck!

I thought I read somewhere that you had to make sure there were no other PDA plugins in Options>Other>Advanced options>COM Add-ins. I think if there is another plugin for a device other than the iPhone, it has problems.

I fixed my Calendar syncing problems with Outlook

I have fixed my "1 day out" syncing with Outlook.
The solution below worked for me, but if you are unsure or a bit dubious then please take advice first....I'm far from a computor genius !!
When I first downloaded 9.1.1.12 mine didn't work either for all the current calendar entries, but it did work for anything new.
So here's what I did.
Firstly if you have your i-Tunes set to "auto sync" when you connect your i-Phone then disable that. That's very important. Then in Outlook create a new calendar and just name it "calendar 2" or something. The new calendar will be completely blank. Then connect your i-Phone as normal. When you have the syncing page on i-Tunes in front of you click on the "info" tab and scroll down to the calendar section. Here you have the option to sync all calendars or selected calendars. After a while the new calendar you have created should appear in the calendar section. Check the box that says "sync selected calendars" and then check the box next to the newly created calendar, making sure the original calendar is not checked. Then scroll down further to the advanced area of the page where you can select information to be synced and check the calendar box. This area allows one way syncing from Outlook to the i-Phone. Once this is done click "apply" and the phone will start to sync. When finished your i-Phone calendar will be completely blank. Now go back to Outlook and "copy" your original calendar into the new calendar. Once this is done go back to the sync section in i-Tunes and repeat the sync again making sure the new calendar is selected only to sync and the calendar box in the advanced section is checked also. This will then sync your calendar back to your i-Phone correctly, well at least it all worked for me. Ideally it's best to then delete the original calendar from Outlook leaving only the newly created one there but I'm not sure it's always possible to delete the original one so just make sure you always use the new one and that when syncing you always have the new calendar selected.
I hope this helps some of you if you're still having problems.
My PC uses Microsoft Vista with Office 2003 and I have an i-Phone 3.1.3

Originally all of Apple products were intended for use with Mac computers. Macs have default program - iCal to sync calendars. Windows default program is ironically Microsoft Outlook. There couple more options in iTunes for
calendar sync, but those need to be chosen and not default.
In your particular situation since you don't have outlook anymore, you don't need to make any changes. No outlook - no sync. Apple way - no user interference nessesary.
Please do remember that everyting I write is just my opinion, nothing more or less.

IPhone no longer syncs with Outlook Contacts/Calendar

For months I was syncing with my computer at home for music and videos, then I bring my iPhone to work and sync my Outlook Contacts and Calendar.
Now, when I plug in my iPhone on my work computer, everything operates as it used to, it still says it's syncing contacts, then syncing the calendar, but after it's done, when I look at the calendar or contacts in my iPhone, nothing has changed. It's simply not syncing with Outlook anymore, even though the status bar at the top of iTunes says it is syncing.

It appears I have solved the issue myself and thought I would share the solution in case anyone runs into this problem.
In Outlook, I only have one profile. However, Outlook somehow had some settings changed where it prompted me for which profile I wanted to use each time I started Outlook (even though I only have one profile). Because it was prompting me to choose when I start Outlook, I am guessing that when iTunes tried to access Outlook, it was also prompting iTunes to choose which profile to use as well. Since iTunes didn't know which profile, it wasn't syncing properly (note, iTunes never asks you which profile you want to use).
To fix this, I went to the control panel, double clicked the mail icon, clicked the button that says "Show Profiles". I highlighted the only profile I have listed in the drop-down menu and checked the box that says "Always use this profile".
I then sync'd iTunes with my phone and the calendar and contacts finally updated!

IPhone-Outlook 2007 Calendar Sync (What worked for me)

Hi;
Today after 3 weeks of day after day trial my iPhone-Outlook 2007 Calenar synch problems seems to be fully fixed. Once again this is what worked for me - I am sharing it and hope that can help you as well:
Overview
========================
I now fully believe that the root cause of the issue starts from a corrupted appoinment entry in your local calendar file. This appointment entry in turn breaks your outlook sync file known as the .OST file. I will tell you how to fix this later. This file is what iTune uses to synch the iPHONE calendar with your Outlook 2007 (same should work for outlook 2003).
In short when the outlooksync.DLL file called by iTUNE, request to sync with outlook - it is the outlook that cannot resolve a corrupt .OST file and all goes to **** after that.
I say this as "This is up to you find this bad calendar entry, get rid of it, get rid of the .OST file, and finally tell Outlook to do a repair job on your outlook installation. I will tell you all how to do this as well.
Steps to fix this issue:
===========================================
1- Go to your outlook calendar and delete any old appointment that still is in there. I got rid of anything older that 2 weeks. To do this just go to your calendar in outlook ... swith to a List view ... sort based on date and highlight anything older than that date and delete. This took me about 30-45 miutes of work... so be paitent with this step. Also, get rid of any holiday notification BS that Outlook puts in your calendar ... you can do this later.
2- Go to outlook-tools-trust center-click on Add-In and then at the bottom of the screen click on Go and validate that your two outlook sync dlls are marked and enabled.
3- Shut down outook and go to the following directory.
C:\Documents and Settings\user name\Local Settings\
Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook
and rename your .OST file ... (there should be only one out there).
3- Go to your control panel and do start/stop applications. Select Outlook and click on change ... outlook will come up with a few options. Select "Repair" this should force outlook to replace the .OST file which you just renamed.
4- Now starts your outlook and let it do its initial sync. Make sure iTune is off at this point. After the Outlooks initialization is done ... now comes the moment of truth...
5- Start iTune (I recommend that you select manual sync) and sycn with your calendar.
At this point I learned that all my calendar items have come in ....
Good luck and let me know if this works with you. Please Please remember the first step ... getting rid of your old appointments is the most important step ... don't rush it ... get rid of anything that you don't need.
Cheers;
Darab.

You can try resetting sync history by clicking on edit at the top of itunes and choosing preferences. Then click on the iphone icon at the right top of the window that opens. There is a button at the bottom of the window to reset sync history.
Also, you can try creating a new login on the computer.
Open outlook and put in a few trial events.
Then sync the iphone to this outlook calendar replacing all calendar data on the iphone.
This is to see if you end up with dots on every day.
If you do not end up with dots on every day, then you might want to take a look at any reoccurring events in the other outlook calendar.
Hope this helps.

8130 Calendar sync problems with Outlook 2007

I have Sprint 8130...and all is okay...until today. I am used to Active sync (from my old HTC Mogul), not RIM software. When I sync'd a week ago, the first time, all was great (accept for the confusion I still have about where the inet explorer favorites went). Today, I plugged in for the second time. All seemed great, except that now most of my calendar items are no longer in Outlook. They are still in my Pearl, though.
I have tried to sync the other way, but to no avail. Ideas?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

So, that did not work, and I ended up on a differnt board where I found the answer....it is a known software glitch with DM since 12/07. It happens when you have multiple email addresses set up on your phone. It can work fine for weeks/months, then one day it just happens. It can happens no matter who your provider is. RIM still has not fixed the sofware issue (unless the Altel .81 fixed it...). It results from having 'multiple calendars' and only one syncing back to Outlook. The only way to fix the issue was the following:
a) Make certain Outlook is COMPLETELY up to date. Manually enter any calendar items on the BB which have not been synced over to Outlook.
b) On your BB, look at Calendar > Options > and you will see the different calendars available. Go back to the main calendar page and and press Menu, and you can view the calendars for each email profile. Decide which email profile you want your calendar entries to reside under, and which is your primary email address for this.
c) Go to Options > Advanced > Service Books. Highlight over AND delete the entries for ALL other email addresses other than your PRIMARY email address.
d) Go to Options > Advanced > Default Services, and make sure ONLY the one primary email you desire is listed there.
e) Now, connect your BB to your PC via USB, and open Desktop Manager.
f) Now, with your Outlook completely updated manually, do this:
1. Connect your BB via USB to your PC, and Open Desktop Manager on your PC.
2. Open up Backup/Restore > Advanced.
3. From Advanced you'll see a split pane screen. You won't see anything in the left pane. In the right pane will be the databases currently on your handheld device.
4. Highlight on the right side your Address Book database (OR your Calendar database) and click the CLEAR button at the bottom of that screen.
5. After it's finished, close the Backup/Restore window, and check the device to make sure the address book (or Calendar) has properly cleared out.
6. Now, re-sync the necessary contact (or Calendar information) from Outlook (or your database) and you should be set to go.
g) With all that completed, and your calendar appearing in BB... remove the battery on your BB (powered ON) and reboot the BB. This should resend the Service Books for the other email addresses you had deleted earlier. If you find after an hour they are not back, resend the service books from your carrier BIS site.
h) return to Options > Advanced > Default Services and make sure your primary email is still the default email. You want to leave your primary showing in the screen, and save.
I hope this might help some other people. THere is talk about all Calendar syncing issues eing related to this issue (except obvious user issues like not syncing all appointments).
Thanks for you time yesterday.
