ICloud + Outlook: no default profile error

I'm trying to sync my iCloud contacts to Outlook, but I get the following error:
"Setup can't continue because Outlook isn't configured to have a default profile. Check your Outlook settings and try again"
However, there is a default profile set, the registry has:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows Messaging Subsystem\Profiles]
"DefaultProfile"="Outlook"
Which is where the default profile is stored (also the profile exists, obviously).
So that error is a fat lie. Uninstalling Office 2010 x64, iTunes, iCloud Control Panel 2.0 and removing all profiles and then and reinstalling in the same order and creating a new profile does not fix the problem.
Maybe someone knows where iCloud is looking for the default profile? Because it doesn't seem to look in the place MS stores it.

I have the same issue.
I had iCloud 1.x working with Outlook 2007 x32. A few months back I upgraded to Office 2010 x64, which (of course) broke the iCloud integration. I've waited for the "fix", and have now tried to - very unsuccessfully - install iCloud 2.11. I've repaired, I've uninstalled/reinstalled, I've set default profiles, I've changed mail accounts...nada.
Any other suggestions?

Can't get my Icloud to connect to outlook. Error message - setup can't continue because outlook isn't configured to have a default profile. Help! Can't sync my contacts or calender with my other devices. Email works fine. Steve

I've looked at the Microsoft support info and it doesn't reveal anything new. I looked up the eM Client software and have decided to give it a try. I've been using Thunderbird and Gmail for years, but the issue of keeping contacts in snyc accross platforms led me to try Outlook as supposedly compatable with iCloud. Thanks for eM Client tip. It seems to work well and I'll be testing it for the next few weeks. While I'd still like to be able to solve the issue with Outlook (I'm not used to being defeated by software), I've got plenty of other things to keep me busy and a working solution is the priority here.
Thanks for the tip!

You can not setup a new iCloud account using a PC. You must use an Apple device (Mac or iPhone/iPad) to create the account, then sign into it using your PC.

Outlook isn't configured to have a default profile

This is the latest error message in trying to get Outlook and iCloud to Sync. I actually had it working on Win 8 with Outlook 2010. The sync file was corrupted and I foolishly said Delete connection to Exchange - thinking I did not have an Exchange server. Since then the connection to iCloud did not work.
After upgrading to Outlook 2013 - 64-bit and uninstalling and reinstalling both it and iCloud and changing profile in Outlook 2013.
I still get an error message:
"outlook isn't configured to have a default profile"
This comes when I check Mail, etc. in the iCloud app on my Win 8 64-bit PC. The Outlook is also 64-bit.

I solved this myself. I installed iCloud - so that I could uninstall it properly. Then I uninstalled it. Then I installed it again in a new directory. Then it worked. Phew!

Migrating for outlook to t-bird, trying to import mail, error "either there is no default mail client...", I have confirmed that outlook is default, ?

I am migrating from Outlook to Thunderbird.
I have purchased a new computer running windows 8.
I have copied the outlook data file from my old computer to he new computer.
I have installed Thunderbird on my new computer.
I try to import existing email stored in Outlook to Thunderbird.
I get the message "either there is no default mail client..." I have made Outlook the default mail client and have rebooted the computer.
Any way to get thunderbird to recognize the Outlook file?
Tom

The automatic import routine only works if you have TB and the old program installed on the same machine. If possible, I suggest you install TB on the old computer that currently has Outlook, run the auto-import, and then transfer the TB profile from the old computer to TB on the new machine.

The method I've found that is the simplest and most reliable is to copy the Thunderbird folder from the old machine to the new one:

How to set up icloud as the default calendar in Outlook

how do I set up icloud as the default calendar in Outlook?

Not possible, Outlook only allows Exchange or local calendars to be the default, same with Contacts.

Make icloud contacts the default contact folder in outlook 2007

Recently Outlook 2007 Contacts defaulted to the Contacts folder under My Contacts instead of the Contacts in iCloud folder under iCloud. The iCloud folder is at the top of list but Outlook does not default to it when I open Outlook 2007. How do I change the default folder that opens when I start Outlook 2007?
Here's what I see.
CONTACTS
All Contact Items
(Drop Down Menu)
    Search these date files
          Personal Folders
          Archive Folders
          iCloud (check marked)
          [email protected]
iCLOUD
     Contacts in iCloud (I want Outlook to default to this folder)
My Contacts
     Contacts (this is the default folder when Outlook opens that I can't change)

Set Contact Defaults.Outlook for Windows

Outlook not saving default profile

When I start outlook 2010, I click an option to save my default profile. But when I start up, it doesn't remember my settings. Is there a way to fix this? What does "set as default profile" really mean?

This is a solution as a means to an end. <o:p></o:p>
The real problem is that Microsoft Outlook is supposed to override this setting. The idea behind "Set as Default Profile" is to make it to where
this does not prompt the user again. This should be fixed.<o:p></o:p>
What should happen, is Microsoft Outlook should be flipping HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows Messaging
Subsystem\Profiles, Value "DefaultProfile" to the selected profile. After this, the system should then flip off "Prompt for a profile to be used". This can be done at HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Exchange\Client\Options\PickLogonProfile Reg_SZ
Value set to 0. This will then make the process of having to go via control panel null. <o:p></o:p>
I'm specifically thinking about Domain environments. Lock downs require us moving users to change control panel options, we would benefit greatly from
this. I suggest a hot fix for this if there is not one already and if there is, that would be my suggested fix in the future. <o:p></o:p>

ICloud Outlook add-in enabled but doesn't seem to be working. Please help!

I know this has been addressed countless times before, but none of the 'fixes' apply to my situation.
I am unable to sync my iPhone 4s's contacts and calendar with Outlook 2010. I am not getting any error messages explaining why this cannot be done, but rather "iCloud" does not show up in the Contacts and Calendar Navigation Panes in Outlook. Here's my setup:
+Apple account is my gmail.com account
+In iPhone->Settings->iCloud, contacts, calendars, reminders, and bookmarks are all on
+Entries in contacts and calendar in my iPhone are seen when signed into icloud.com
+On my PC, in the iCloud Control Panel, "Contacts with Outlook" and "Calendars and Tasks with Outlook" are both checked when signed in with my gmail.com apple ID
+In the Mail Control Panel, my mail profile is set up with my gmail.com account as IMAP/SMTP. This is the profile used when I open Outlook
+In Outlook->Options->Add-Ins, both the "iCloud Outlook Addin" and the "iTunes Outlook Addin" are included in the Active Application Add-ins
My understanding is that at this point, since my iPhone uploads to iCloud just fine, "Contacts with Outlook" and "Calendars and Tasks with Outlook" are checked in the iCloud Control Panel, the Outlook Add-in is active, and my Outlook e-mail profile uses my Apple ID, that I should see a button in the Outlook ribbon that says "Refresh iCloud" and I should see iCloud in the Navigation Pane.
I do not see the button nor do I see iCloud in the Navigation Pane, and I don't not know why. Can anybody help?
Thank you very much for any help you can offer.

go to

click on icloud
check boxes wanted to update and go

The EventSystem sub system is suppressing duplicate event log entries for a duration of 86400 seconds. The suppression timeout can be controlled by a REG_DWORD value named SuppressDuplicateDuration under the following registry key: HKLM\Software\Microsoft\EventSystem\EventLog.

hi do the following
1. In Search programs and files (Windows 7) area, type in regedit, and press Enter.
2. If prompted click yes,
3. expand the following HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList
4. click the sid that related to your admin profile (if you not sure, click each sid and in turn look to the right hand side of registry editor it will show who that sid is related to one of the registry files should hae in description localhost\admin or
something similair)
5. right click the sid and press delete.
6. restart your machine and log back on with the admin account, this will then rebuild the admin profile... dont worry when it loads and none of your personal settings are saved or files or folders... go to c:\users
in here you will see two folders for the admin account, one will be just admin and the other most likely admin.localhost
i cant remember which one is which but just check both, one will still have all your files and folders in it.
i suggest making a backup of your data before doing this incase something does go wrong, but ive had this happen many times in a domain enviorment and has worked for me everytime.

Hi,
Please follow the steps below to make sure the reminders have been enabled in Outlook:
On the File tab, click Options.
Select Advanced in the Outlook Options dialog box.
In the Reminders section, select Show reminders.

As mentioned in the thread, you can try these steps:
Use MFCMAPI to delete the Reminders Folder, then run "outlook.exe /resetfolders" to recreate this folder:
