How can i synchronize my outlook 2011 with icloud

Hi there,
I've just been googling a lot, but didn't find a answer to my question, just people who find the same problem actually. I was wondering if anyone could save this puzzle yet:
After some tests I learned, that mac—when you first activate your iCloud—uses two different contact and calendar sources: the local and the one exported to the cloud. So as for my office solution I need a three step synchronization. I work with Outlook 2011 and use this calendar, and also quite frequently my calendar on my iphone. So of course I would want them synchronized as much as possible.
What my mac does: synchronizes phone and mac calendar perfectly, not the Outlook calendar though. As I saw in the Outlook preferences, Outlook is only connected to the local calendar. Therefor all events disappear when I cleaned out my mac calendar of double events (local and iCloud appeared there).
How can I get my Outlook to take the iCloud calendar as main source?
I also faced that problem in my mac adressbook (which synchronizes with Oultook): there I do have double contacts too, since you can't deactivate the local contact account.
Not good :-( I'd be very happy if someone had some anwers.
Thanks a lot in advance.

Welcome to the Apple community.
Outlook is not compatible with iCloud, you should change your contacts and calendars to iCal and address book.

Import from outlook 2011 in mail

How can I import E-mail from Outlook 2011 to Mail

...I've email in Apple mail and I want export from it to Outlook 2011...
I did a little testing and all I can come up with is the following:
In OSX Mail, select your message and click File, Save As.
Format is Raw Message Source.
Be sure to have a .eml extension at end of the filename.
Open Outlook and drag the message file onto your Inbox (or whatever folder in your Mail.)
Notes:
Outlook must have focus when you drag the message in. IOW, click on Outlook to bring it to the front before dragging the message in.
You must Save As each message individually. Selecting multiple message in OSX Mail, will combine all the messages into one file, which Outlook import as just one message. (And import very badly.)
Of course, it's obviously gonna be a pain importing messages individually, but you asked.
BTW, just to make sure you're fully warned, getting your data out of Outlook later is nearly impossible. Try the Export function in Outlook for Mac and you'll see what I mean. (It's like Hotel California. You can check out anytime you like but you can never leave. )
I second that emotion

How can I migrate from Outlook 2011 to iCal and Apple Address Book in Mavericks now that synching is no longer possible?

Now that I am on Mavericks and no longer able to sync between my iPhone/iPad and Outlook 2011 on my MacBook Pro, I'm finally taking the leap (which I should have done long ago) and abandoning Outlook 2011 all together (doesn't help that Outlook now prompts me to rebuild by Identity multiple times per day). I am hoping to export from Outlook to iCal, Address Book, etc, but I would love it if someone could check my steps.
Delete iCal and Apple Address Book content -- Because I have old data in iCal and Address Book (that was synched before I upgraded to Mavericks), I planned to delete this data as follows:
Manually deleting my multiple calendars in the iCal app
Go to Go>Home>Library>Calendars and drag "Calendar Cache" to trash
Go to Go>Home>Library>Caches and drag "com.apple.iCal" and "com.apple.AddressBook" to the trash
Go to Go>Home>Library>Application Support and drag "Address Book" to the trash
Export Outlook 2011 Calendars to iCalIs there a file format that I can use to export from Outlook 2011 and then import into iCal? I will use this file format to individually export each of my calendars from Outlook 2011 and import them into iCal.
Export Outlook 2011 Contact List to Apple Address BookIs there a file format that I can use to export from Outlook 2011 and then import into Apple Address Book?
Suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Hi acs4055,
As per your query I found a relevant solution for resolving this, actually I haven’t tried the steps you wrote here in your query. But I found a solid key answer for exporting from Mac OS X Mavericks (10.9.1) Outlook 2011 to iCal for Apple mail. This is possible through Drag and Drop method via this you can undoubtedly migrate Outlook 2011 Calendar to ical format.
Hope it will assist you and you will be able to attain a desired solution.

How do I import a Thunderbird inbox using Mail.app?

Hi all:)
I've managed to convince my mother she should get a Mac, and so far she's loving it. The only problem is that I can't import her emails from Thunderbird (Windows version) onto Mail.app. I followed the instructions on the Mozilla website (http://www.mozilla.org/support/thunderbird/faq.html#export) for exporting emails, but Mail insists that those are not compatible .mbox files.
I then found this article (http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=20050402143519725) on Mac OS X Hints, but even following its instructions, I couldn't work it out (Mail kept giving me the same error).
Does anyone know how to import Thunderbird's inbox onto Mail? Any help it appreciated
Cheers
Daniel

Hi Daniel.
It isn’t clear what the problem really is with the information you’ve provided — what does “Mail insists that those are not compatible .mbox files” mean?
Anyway, you’d get better results using Eudora Mailbox Cleaner to do the conversion. Eudora Mailbox Cleaner requires rebuilding the imported mailboxes in Mail afterwards, but instead of rebuilding them one by one, you can re-create the entire index as follows:
1. Quit Mail if it’s running.
2. In the Finder, go to ~/Library/Mail/. Make a backup copy of this folder, just in case something goes wrong, e.g. by dragging it to the Desktop while holding the Option (Alt) key down. This is where all your mail is locally stored.
3. Locate Envelope Index and move it to the Trash. If you see any other “Envelope Index”-named file there, delete it as well.
4. Open Mail. It will tell you that your mail needs to be “imported”. Click Continue and Mail will proceed to re-create Envelope Index — Mail says it’s “importing”, but it just re-creates the index if the mailboxes are already in Mail 2.x format.
Note: For those not familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers to the user’s home folder. That is, ~/Library is the Library folder within the user’s home folder, i.e. /Users/username/Library.

Need help... its my 2nd day of no work... and many many tries!
Thanks

You can select to sync you contacts and calendar with Outlook on the Info tab of your iTune sync settings.
If this is your first sync you will get a merge or replace prompt for calendars and contacts as long as there is at least one contact and one calendar event in Outlook. If this is not your first sync you will need to reset your sync history to generate a merge or replace prompt (see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1692). If you don't, the calendar and contacts on your phone will be replaced with those in Outlook.
Email is not synced. To get your email on your phone, set up the your email account in Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Add Account.

The export function from iCloud creates one single .vcf file with all the addresses in it. If you click on it on the desktop, it starts displaying each and every address as a separate vCard. However, "Tools/Import...Address Books...vCard file" doesn't do anything.

How can I import my OE address book and IE favorites????

Please help! Getting ready to upgrade from 9.2.2 .to 10.4.4 but...
how can I import my Outlook Express address book (full of my vital email contacts!) to Mac Mail and my Internet Explorer favorites to another program supported by 10.4.4? Which program is the easiest and best to replace IE?
Thanks for you help.

Hi Margaret
Tiger comes with Safari included - which will replace IE. there are other free browsers like Firefox, Camino, Opera ..... you'll find a huge list at http://darrel.knutson.com/mac/www/browsers.html . But for starters, I'd stick with Safari. You can easily ( assuming dsl or cable) download & try out others later.
I don't have a mac IE to check - but look under the file menu & you may find a "export favorites" command. If you do, choose that and export as html. Save it to your desktop or somewhere convenient. You can check it's worked ok double-clicking the file - you should see a looong list of headings & favorites. They won't be clickable links, so don't worry about that - just quickly check that there's nothing obviously missing. This file can be used in Safari by choosing safari-file-import bookmarks & choosing the file you saved.
getting your OE contacts in : check out http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=AddressBook/4.0/en/ad808.html . Again I don't have OE available - but if there's an 'export contacts' available - it should be easy.
