Multiple personalities when syncing bb calendar with outlook mac 2011

Outlook mac 2011 meetings where I invite guests appear correctly both in my bb and mac outlook calendar. Meetings where I invite no one "appointments" won't sync no matter what I try. Has this happened to anyone else?

Outlook for Mac 2011 does not support iCloud contacts and calendars syncing because Microsoft chose not to include the CardDAV and CalDAV protocols necessary to do so (see http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2648915), which is strange since they do support these on Outlook for Windows.
If you want to contacts and calendars with iCloud you'll have to use the OS X apps.

Outlook Mac 2011 keeps crashing after Maverick installation

Hi everyone,
just installed Maverick. Now my Outlook Mac 2011 keeps crashing. I just freezes up and eventually pops a window stating "microsoft outlook must be closed because an error occured. any unsaved work may be lost.". Anyone seen this too and found a way to fix?
Cheers,

I have found MS Office databases to be fragile. When I had the 2008 version, it was corrupted by an MS Office upadate. The same thing recently occurred to me in MS Office 2011 after I migrated to a new iMac. The tech support person from Microsoft had to reinstall MS Office 2011 from scratch and I had to start over with a new Main Identity.
Fortunately, there are ways to migrate all your old email to a new main identity but it is a pain.
I suggest you head over to the Microsoft forums to see what they are saying over there. It could be that your database was corrupted by the update to Mavericks but there are other things that cause that delicate database to get corrupted. I realize this does not fix your problems but you might gain some additional insights at the Microsoft web site.

How do i sync my icloud contacts with outlook for Mac 2011

I need to sync my icloud contacts with Outlook for Mac. Help!

You can't, as Microsoft chose not to include the CardDAV protocol necessary to do so (even though they do in Microsoft Office). See http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2648915. To sync your iCloud contacts with your Mac you'll need to use the OS X Contacts (Address Book) app.

Can i not sync – contacts with my Mac in OSX Mavericks? Why must it be done in the "cloud"? This is a very unnecessary change!

You can sync via icloud. You cannot sync contacts via the cable.

Synching contacts with Outlook does not work

I have a Mac (with the contacts application), an iPhone and an iPad as well as an iCloud account. Synching contacts between all 4 of them works perfectly. However, synching contacts with Outlook 2011 does not work anymore. It used to, then I had some trouble with the synching with the iCloud (due to the fact that I had to change the Apple ID from the one I use for iTunes to the one I use for the Cloud), and since then contacts do not replicate with Outlook anymore. I can deactivate and reactivate the synching in Outlook as much as I want, no change.
Any ideas? Thanks!

So it sounds like you have contacts from multiple mail accounts syncing to/from your iPhone. They will all appear there as long as their respective accounts are checked under contacts/groups(upper left of contact screen).
As far as contacts created on the iPhone, if you select Outlook as your default account for contacts, all contacts created on the iPhone will sync with Outlook. I'm assuming your Outlook syncs with an Exchange Server.
You could connect the iPhone to iTunes and sync all of your contacts to say, a desktop version of Outlook. You could then import that set of contacts into the Exchange version of Outlook.

Outlook:Mac 2011 Slow When Switching to Contacts

I am having problems with Outlook Mac. I am on a 1.7 GHz i5 4GB Macbook Air. When I switch from mail or calendar to contacts, the spinning wheel goes for about 15 seconds before I can search a contact. I can seach for a contact just fine using spotlight, but I am not accustom to this and am using it more as a workaround. I have about 3,000 contacts so I don't think this is some sort of volume issue. On spotlight, it searches fast, just if I click on contacts while in Outlook does it seem to take forever before I can start searching. Once I'm past the 15 seconds of waiting, it operates as one would expect. if I click on calendar or mail and then right back to contacts, I'll need to wait again. Has anyone experienced this? Any suggestions on how to resolve it?
Thanks, Stephen

It has been quite some time since this question has been asked, and like many others, I have scoured the net looking for a solution and I believe that I have found one.
I deleted the Outlolok preferences out of ~/Library/Preferences and restarted Outlook. Behold, the problem was gone. Until I switched the sorting of the Contacts from the default "Name" to "Last Name". When I did that, the problem came back. In fact, if I changed the sorting to anything other than "Name", the delay would reappear. I tested this on three different MacBooks and the results were replicated across all three.
If you are still having this problem, check to see how your contacts are sorted. It would be interesting to know if this "fix" helps anyone else.

IPhonne stopped synching contacts with Outlook

I had somehow synched my outlook contacts with the iPod. After that I deleted all my contacts from Outlook. Then, to take a backup of my iPhone contacts, I added just 1 dummy entry into my Outlook contacts. I am using the latest iTunes and also have updated the SW on the iPhone. I make all the right selections in iTunes to sync iPhone contacts with outlook. When I sync contacts are not synced. Neither the Outlook contacts nor the iPhone contacts are changed.
All I want is to create a backup copy of my iPhone contacts. Is this an impossible task?
Thanks,
Bulent Dervisoglu

It is now 2008 and I assume Apple decided to support the most popular versions of Outlook and I guess if Microslop didn't have significant changes between Outlook 2002 and 2003 - with 2003 released the very next year which is unusual and speaks volumes, Outlook 2002 would also be supported but I venture to say there is a reason.
Nothing special or additional purchase is required with a Mac and rightfully so and I don't blame Apple one bit for not wasting resources to support every Outlook version or Windows version. The minimum system requirements and other requirements is published and easily available before making this purchase.
I think Apple designers need to go for a training session @ Motorola. I had no backup issues with my Motorola Razr using the Motorola Phone Tools SW.
And Motorola designers need to go for a training session or two @ Apple since the Motorola Phone Tools SW is Windows compatible only which I believe requires an additional purchase.
Which Windows version are you running since there might be another option depending on your answer.

Bought my hubby an iphone4 and I registered it and opened an apple account for him. I have an iphone 5 (under my own Apple account). I use icloud to sync calender and contacts with outlook 2007. How do I add my hubby's phone (account) to icloud ?

On his phone, sign in Settings>iCloud and enable Mail so that he can have his own email address. Then add your account in Settings>Mail, Contacts & Calendars and enable Contacts and Calendars. They will then appear on his phone alongside any syncing he has set up. This will keep your emails separate, or you can add Mail as well so that you can both access that if you want. You can add his account in the same way on your phone and enable any data types you want to sync.

Connect your iPhone to the computer, from I tunes screen at the top you can see different tabs, click on info, then choose from that screen from where you will sync contacts, then go down and press sync

Sync'ing contacts with Outlook no longer works

Ipod Nano 4gb with latest iTunes 7.02.16. Problem was also present on previous version of iTunes.
At one time, for a while after I bought my iPod nano, I could sync my Outlook contacts. It used to popup a message in Outlook asking for permission and I would say, yes, 10 minutes or whatever.
Now iTunes just keeps saying "Cannot sync contacts with Outlook, try closing all instances of Outlook and restarting" but that suggestion does not solve the problem.
Anybody know how to fix this?
cheers,

You should probably post your question in the iTunes or iPod discussions

I use an iPhone 5, and want to sync my phone calendar and contacts with Outlook 7 calendar and contacts; two problems--I now get dozens of new calendars every time, and my outlook calendar will not sync at all.; meaning that date entries on Outlook do not come across ot iPhone.

It is unusual for the calendar to sync and not the contacts in Outlook. I've worked with Outlook for years. You didn't answer what computer OS you are using. If it is Windows, have you tried to reset the sync history in iTunes? Do that by opening iTunes, go to Edit>Preferences>Devices and click on reset sync history. If you have done this and it doesn't help, then we can try and run scanpst.exe on your Outlook file and see if there are any errors. Search your computer for that file, however it normally resides in one of the Microsoft Office folders in the folder Program files. After that, you can see if it will sync.

Synchornisation of BB Torch Contacts with Outlook 2007

I have bought BB Torch 9810 recently. And dowloaded latest version of BB Desktop software. I tried to synchronize the BB contact with Outlook 2007. However, it is taking 5 hours or more to do the same. And even after giving so much of time, it gives errors and only partial contacts are transferred to Outlook. (Previously I was using BB Torch and the sync was just taking 2-3 minutes).
Please guide.

Hi and Welcome to the Community...and apologies for the delay!
Hopefully you already have this resolved...but just in case...
I suggest this thread:
http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/Desktop-Software-for-PC/Cleanly-quot-Starting-Over-quot-with-...
It starts with a process for cleanly starting over, and there is some discussion, and there is also a post (15) with links to older Desktop Software versions, if those are needed. Note that this is not, by any means, guaranteed to work...but it has worked for many to resolve issues they are having.
Sorry, but better advice can only come from better input..."it gives errors" does not give enough to make reasonble guesses from.
Good luck!
