How do you set up Outlook for Mac 2011 to access b...

I am having great trouble with the set up in Outlook for Mac 2011 to be able to access my btinternet mail account.
Can someone please advise what the correct settings are?
I also keep getting error messages about SMTP, though there doesn't appear to be any way of changing this setting in Outlook.
Thanks,

  • How can I synchronize my Outlook for Mac 2011 contacts with iCloud?

    Don't works synchronize my outlook for mac 2011 contacts with iCloud. Someone can help me please?

  • How to link iCal with Outlook for Mac 2011?

    Hello Apple people.
    Just got my MacBook Pro (Late 2011) and am trying to enable Outlook to link with iCal so I can get meeting alerts on my iPhone 4.  I prefer using Outlook for email and calendar usage.  I've linked it with iCal, but can't get information to transfer between the two.  Any thoughts?

    Greetings,
    Before doing any troubleshooting I would recommend backing up your data (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1553).  Calendars and contacts tend to be important to people and are complex in nature which increases the chances of mishaps.
    Make sure you have installed all software updates from Apple by going to Apple > Software Update.
    Make sure you have installed all software updates for your Microsoft software (Open Outlook and then go to Help > Check for Updates).
    Restart your computer (Apple Menu > Restart).
    The first thing I would suggest is following all steps in this article: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2452489.
    Once this is complete you should see the calendars you have added to Outlook when you click the "Calendars" button in iCal under the "On My Mac" section.
    If the calendars do not show up reset Sync Services: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1627.
    Hope that helps.

  • How do i sync my iphone with outlook for mac 2011 calendar?

    how do i sync my iphone with outlook for mac 2011 calendar?

    Here are some instructions from Microsoft:
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2452489
    Alternatively, depending on where the data in Outlook is coming from, you could set up your phone to sync to the same account that Outlook is syncing with.  For example, my Outlook 2011 and my iPhone both sync to my work Exchange account, so I have that same calendar in both places.

  • Setting up icloud in outlook for mac 2011

    I have tried to set up my iCloud email account in Outlook for Mac 2011. Incoming works fine. Outgoing doesn't. I have trawled over the support pages for the correct outgoing server info but on using the settings I am no further on. I did see a post by someone who had found the same problem and copied the settings that Mail uses which seems to be different for incoming than Apples recommendations. (but thats not a problem for me!) and unfortunately the outgoing in the Mail settings for my iCloud account simply shows "iCloud" so I am none the wiser!
    Can anyone help? Incidentally my icloud account for email works fine on my iPhone and iPad.
    thanks

  • How do I set up pages for mac and ipad to share a document and keep them synced.

    How do I set up pages for mac and ipad to share a document and keep them synced.

    You can upload them from Mac to iCloud and then download on the iPad. They only directly sync between iOS devices. The Mac version of Pages has more options that are not available on iOS. If you use a font that is not available on iOS it will change the font. Some layout options aren't available either.

  • Imac is 4 months old.  Using installed Outlook for Mac 2011 but now want to use ical so that I can start to use iCloud to sync with my Ipad2 and iPhone.  How do I move my calendar from outlook to ical on the iMac?

    This is my first attempt at using this forum so please be patient with me.  I am new to the apple world.  Bought an Imac desktop computer back in October and installed Microsoft Office for Mac 2011 because I was used to Word, Excel, Powerpoint, and outlook.  Now I am being told that I should be using ical for my calendar so that I will be better able to move to icloud for use between my Imac, Ipad2, and Iphone.
    The question is:  how do I move my calendar which is in "Outlook for Mac 2011" into ical on my Mac?  Do I have to remove the Outlook entries from the computer and reinstall them back to the same machine or can I somehow move calendar entries within the machine?  I appreciate any help I can get.  Thanks.

    I also already deleted my phone number from iMessage on my MBP.

  • How to view my family share calendar in outlook for mac 2011 (ical)

    Hey All
    Problem:
    Want to view my family share calendar in outlook for mac 2011.
    Want to have them sync on the fly (push)
    Currently running 2 exchange mailboxes which have their own mailboxes and calendars which you can toggle between.
    For the PC this is a relatively straight forward task.. You can add an additional calendar to outlook and you are away. Wife's PC can view her own personal exchange calendar and on a separate tab she can view, edit, print etc the family share calendar.
    For outlook for Mac, I've tried a few work arounds and none of them actually work, all the Apple documentation available doesn't really cover this.
    Any help would be much appreciated
    Cheers

    Hi,
    According to your description, I notice that Outlook for Mac for Office 365 cannot open shared calendar.
    If I misunderstand your concern, please do not hesitate to let me know.
    Which account are you used, Exchange account or Microsoft account?
    Would you please login OWA and test to open this shared calendar?
    Outlook for Mac cannot open the shared calendar which is a sub-calendar, you have to ask calendar owner share all calendars under the default "Calendar" folder.
    More details about it, for your reference:

  • I had just upgraded my OS to the OS X Mavericks.  After doing so, I noticed that my MS Outlook for Mac 2011 does not sync with the calendar/contacts/notes, thus, also not sync these info with my iPhone4s anymore.  Please help, thank you.

    Dear Sirs,
    I had just upgraded my OS to the OS X Mavericks.  After doing so, I noticed the following changes:
    1) My MS Outlook for Mac 2011 does not sync with my Mac book's calendar/contacts/notes.
    2) My iPhone4s does not sync with my Mac book's calendar/contacts/notes anymore.
    Please help, thank you.

    Correct, USB local sync was taken away from iphones and ipads with 10.9.1 and 2. We are not allowed to speculate on rumours it might come back in 10.9.3 plus new iTunes. Either wait and see or explore Syncmate 5 beta free trial.
    icloud still works.
    Cant help with the Outlook problem.

  • How do you set the duration for multiple stills in iMovie 2013?

    How do you set the duration for multiple stills in iMovie 2013?
    Before upgrading to the latest version of iMovie last month, I was able to set the duation of all of the stills included in an iMovie project at one time by clicking the apply to all still box in the adjustment pop up. That option is no longer apparent. If it is available I cannot find it, and I have tried several different ways to accomplish it. I have tried the iMovie help section and can find nothing to help.
    Apple, do I really have to adjust close to 500 pictures to a 5 second duration individually???
    REALLY??!!

    ...why wouldnt people want that level of accuracy when animating, especially when working to music at a specific duration?
    Because often people are animating to words or beats in the music.  Music is rarely performed with a computer-precise beat and tempo.  Musicians aren't robots: they swing the beat sometimes.  They use rubato.  They change tempo.  They change time signatures.  As a result, you have to FIND those words and beats.  It's not a situation where you can say, "There!  I've found the duration of one beat!  Now it's easy to find the rest of them!" 
    If you try it, you will be very disappointed.
    Try finding the precise end of a piece of music that fades or ends on a big chord with a ring-out.  You'll see that it's trial-and-error: what's the point where it becomes inaudible?  It depends on how high your speakers are turned up.  You might have them way up, you set an end point for the layer, and then you do a RAM Preview at a more reasonable volume.  You might say, "Hey!  The music ends before the layer ends!"...  but you KNOW you set the layer's out point when the audio file goes silent.
    AE has layer markers that can be used on an audio layer to mark beats, words, etc. They come in very handy.
    I guess it comes down to this: because AE can do so much different stuff, there are very few automated procedures.  Oh, Adobe tries with effects that convert audio levels to keyframes, but they're not 100% reliable... especially on something like a capella choral works.  For true accuracy, you need  find the timings yourself. 
    If you want something simpler, try a different application. But be prepared for lower level of accuracy.

  • How can i sync mac address book w/ outlook for mac 2011

    Is it possible to have the address book in Outlook for Mac 2011 sync w/ the Mac address book?  I cleaned up my contacts in the Mac address book expecting the changes to show up in my outlook address book.  Made over 200 changes that did not show up on the Outlook address book.  Seems like there should be a way to make this work.  If I add contacts from within Outlook, I'd like them to show up on all my devices.  MacBook Pro, iPhone, and iPad.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  I'm new to this platform as I was a PC guy for the last 30 years. 

    I've got Outlook up and running just fine.  Still have the problem with getting duplicate emails but I'm waiting on MS to get a fix for that in an update.  Apparently that has been an ongoing issue.  I've been in contact w/ a senior MS Outlook tech on that.  I guess I'll just have to make sure that all contact adds/edits are done in Outlook.  Then I can sync my phone or iPad and get the cloud to update the other Apple devices off that sync.  Either that or figure out how to export from the Mac address book to the Outlook address book once in a while.

  • How to sync Address Book TO Outlook for Mac 2011

    I am using the native Address Book from Mac OS 10.7.5 and need to keep using it because it syncs with my iPhone. However, I am using Outlook for Mac 2011 and want the contacts to synch from Mac Address Book to Outlook's contact list.
    Synch services have been turned on in Outlook.
    Originally, I was going to switch to Mac Mail but discovered that importing mail from Outlook is a headache (https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2664208?start=0&tstart=0). Outlook works well and has for years so rather than going through a bunch of manual drag and dropping of folders to make mbox files, or buying software to do it, I thought getting the contacts to synch would suffice since that's all that's really needed.
    What I discovered is that Outlook will feed new contacts to Mac Address Book when they are generated in Outlook but the Mac Address Book does not feed new contacts to Outlook if they were generated in Address Book. Is this even possible? If so, how?
    Thanks,
    Karen
    I read this previous thread but it talks about contact info going FROM Outlook to Address Book instead of the other way around: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2664208?start=30&tstart=0
