Moving from iCal to Outlook 2007's calendar

What is involved in the pre-configuration of iCal in order to make this happen?

im wondering if there has been any updates to this?
i work from a PC / Microsoft support base and our outlook users can accept iCals -and accept/decline invites - from GMail, but not Mac sent iCal calendar invites. like the GMail iCal invite, the .ics attachment comes through but when you open the Mac invite, the option to accept/decline is greyed out.
the closest ive come to a solution is the suggested editting of the iCal application script: http://www.ehow.com/how_5887667_send-ical-invites-outlook.html
can someone tell me definitively whether Apple recognises there is an issue sending Mac iCals to Outlook?
(fyi, we're running outlook 2007 SP3, which encompasses the MS hotfix to address the iCal situation in Outlook http://support.microsoft.com/kb/944094 . seeing that it works with GMail iCal, and not with Mac iCal, i can only come to the conclusion that its an incompatability issues between mac standards and microsoft standards)

Help! Can't sync Outlook 2007 contacts & calendar with iPhone 5 or iPad Air

After upgrading software on iPhone 5 & iTunes, I can no longer sync any contacts or calendar from Outlook 2007.
I have been syncing happily for years, but just this week after downloading software updates for iPhone 5 and iTunes, I can no longer sync.
Music and Podcasts and even notes appear ok, but no contacts or calendar.
At one point, I managed to get the calendar to appear but no contacts; then on a later attempt, the calendar completely disappeared from my iPhone and Outlook - with no USB connection at the time. I had a backup, but strange!
I have tried the following with no success (most tips picked up from this forum):
Reset sync and tried again
Reset my phone to be a new phone; deleted everything - no success;
Ensured my default account on outlook was the same standard account as before
Deleted all the addons in Outlook except for iTunes (though iCloud keeps coming back!)
I have run malware software and found nothing
I have shut down and restarted many many times!
I am syncing via USB.
Please help!! I have spent hours trying to get this to work.
Thank you!

By any chance are you running any Eset security software products (like Nod32) on that PC?
If so, there's a couple of alternatives.
Either try the procedure in Samoreen's post:
Re: iTunes 11.1.4.62 freezes while syncing with Outlook
Or, see if you can get hold of the Eset beta addressing the problem. As Samoreen notes in another post:
ESET have a workaround for this issue. They gave me access to a test version of the HIPS module and this fixed the problem. So I could re-enable the ESET_OPTIONS environment variable (although I still consider that it's a questionable idea). I upgraded to iTunes 11.1.5.5 and there was no problem.
So maybe you should get in touch with ESET support and request the new module ? Just send a message to Marcos in the ESET forum.
Re: Outlook 2013 Calendar Sync fails with new iTunes 11.1.5.5

Outlook 2007 denied calendar access when shared by other outlook 2007 users....

i have exchange 2010 with latest sp. we use outlook 2013/2010/2007 on windows os's vista through 8.1. Calendar sharing via setting explicit permissions in outlook 2010/2013 works fine. in outlook, select calendars, right click calendar, set explicit permissions
for user you want to share calendar with to Free/busy/subject/location. works ok for 2010 and 2013. However Outlook 2007 client does same and the other outlook 2007 intended recipient gets "you dont have permission to access xxxx calendar. DO you want
to send a request?" WHen you send a request you are automatically granted "Reviewer" permission to the mailbox. Our staff dont want to give that much detail. Is this a bug or config error? I expected to set the permissions on a users calendar
to a mailgroup and share it using the free/busy/subject/location permission set. SO i was surprised to see this didn't work and generated the permission error + request permission email. any ideas would be appreciated.
The main reason to share this way is to avoid giving reviewer permission to everyone you share with.
Also please note that an Outlook 2013 user who uses the method above to set permissions for groups will have other outlook 2013 users view his calendar based on the permissions set. Outlook 2007 clients still get permission denied...do you want to request
permission...
After more testing I found that upgrading to outlook 2010 seems to work. I would prefer to avoid the cost of the upgrade if possible however it seems that Outlook 2010 works correctly and Outlook 2007 does not.

Hi,
My understanding is that no matter the calendar owner shares the calendar via Outlook 2013 or Outlook 2007, the Outlook 2007 recipient can't open the calendar and receive the message to send a request, am I correct? If yes, please let me explain.
In short, it is by design in Outlook 2007. In Outlook 2007 with Exchange 2007(and later), the "Free/Busy time" and "Free/Busy time, subject, location" permissions only apply when checking the user's free/busy information (for example,
when looking in the Scheduling tab of a meeting request) and not when looking in another user's Calendar folder.
To workaround this issue, when sharing the calendar in Outlook, please add "Folder visible". Thus the Outlook 2007 recipients should be able to open the shared calendar.

Synchronisation from iCal to Outlook 2011 for MAC

I am wondering when Apple will start supporting reminder/task synchronisation between iCal---iCloud---Office 2011 Mac. Even though new Office versions have been released Outlook 2011 will be around for some time and this would be something rather simple to create right?
The strange things is that it is supported for Outlook 2011 Windows.
So when I have dual boot I can see my Icloud reminders as tasks in Outlook but if I boot on Mac i can't see them in Outlook. How weird is that Apple...?
If Apple is not going to do anything about this, is there anything possible with a script perhaps that works between iCal and Outlook 2011 Mac? that would be a proper workaround at least.
Also curious actually as to why this functionality was not added.

INFORMATION on Emailchemy from another Forum
I’ve found a way in which you can import Apple Mail into Outlook 2011 on Mac OS X Lion.
The software I’m running is Mac OS X 10.7.2 on a 2011 MacBook Pro.
You need to purchase an app called Emailchemy. It’s 29.99 for an individual license, and 49.99 for a family license. There are enterprise versions available as well.
Once you run the app, you need to do the following:
1. Export all mailboxes from Apple Mail to your desktop (or any other suitable location on your computer). You do this by selecting the mailbox, and then clicking on “Mailbox”, and then “Export Mailbox”. Save the destination, and the file is saved automatically.
2. Then you open Emailchemy and do the following:
- click on “toolbox” in the bottom left hand corner
- click on the second box on the top left hand called “advanced email conversion”
- click on “add file”
- select the folder (s) you just exported from Apple Mail (e.g. Inbox.mbox)
Now here comes the trick
- select format “apple mail 1.0 in the format option at the bottom
- then 3 sub-folders will appear “info-p.list”, “mbox” and “table of contents”
Select “mbox”
- click on “convert” and choose a save file name. Choose the format “MBOX file (standard mbox)”
- click on save
And you then have a folder created which Outlook 2011 recognizes and can import.
I just imported all my Apple Mail into Outlook 2011 – it works really well too – the formatting, attachments, etc are all there!
Hope this helps.

Outlook 2007 Shared calendars problem

Hi,
We are having a problem with shared calendars in outlook 2007. A colleague went on holiday for two weeks and whilst he was away, he was seeing people accepting new meeting times sent by the PAs but despite being an invitee he wasnt recieving invites and
his calendar didn't update.
His calendar is shared with the PA, and she changes his appointments as and when required. Until this week, this worked no problem. Now, when she changes events on his calendar, he doesn't see the change, even when re-synched it shows no different.
Occasionally, he will create an event himself - he did this today to show me - he created the meeting, invited the board, they all accepted, and then voila, the event was in the board's calendar (showing as HIS event) but wasn't in his calendar at all.
I'm alright at email and exchange but I don't use and know nothing about outlook calendars (I'm still a strong believer in the Filofax ;))
Please help!
Jak

So sorry -- I shut down Outlook and restarted it to find that both add-ins were now present, and everything seems to be working. Unfortunately, I don't know how to delete this thread.

Emails Hard Deleted from Inbox on Outlook 2007 Exchange Client

I hope to be able to resolve an issue we have been experiencing for the past couple of months. It is only happening to one of many users with similar configurations. All users are on the latest Blackberry Desktop versions, I believe 5.0, the Outlook 2007 is an Exchange 2003 Client on a Windows XP workstation. All versions have the latest service packs installed.
The affected person went and bought one of these new touch screen Blackberry devices, with Verizon. I don't recall this happening with his previous device.
All Reconcile options are turned off, auto-archive options, etc. Emails should remain unchanged in Outlook, not opened, not viewed, not deleted, not anything, copies forwarded to the Black Berry Device.
He will open his outlook client on his PC and find all but one or two days of emails in his inbox, all else hard deleted. When we try to recover they go into the inbox, then immediately get hard deleted again.
What BB Settings can I check to ensure that hard delete functions in Outlook cannot take place???

Hi,
OK, just a few questions ot get us started:
Is the user on a BES or BIS service plan?
What service books do you have in Options - Advanced Aoptions - Service Books, that end with CMIME?
Thanks in advance.
Checked out my Blackberry FAQ's and Links to Needed Articles here

Just moved from in house ocs 2007 R2 to office 365 lync 2013, I'm clear to "unprep" right?

We've just migrated from in house ocs 2007 r2 to office 365 w lync 2013. We are using dirsync to sync our AD with o365.
We'd like to decommission our OCS 2007 server since its no longer being used. Will running unprep impact our hosted lync 2013 setup given that we are using dirsync? I don't think it should, but just want to confirm.
Any advice appreciated.

Hi MC625,
In my opinion, unprep is not necessary and I suggest you should not perform this action.
I haven't seen an unprep referenced in the migration from OCS to Lync 2013 articles.

ICloud/Outlook 2007 - Contacts & Calendar duplicate items.

I just recently updated my 3GS to the new OS and installed iCloud and I'm having a couple of issues.
1. My contact and calendar items have been duplicated. One set are listed under "My Calendars" and "My Contacts" and the other listed under "iCloud". The iCloud items sync wirelessly to my phone but the others need the phone to be connect by cable to sync. Aside from showing duplicate items on my phone, updating one set does not update the other.
Is there a way of having one set that sync wirelessly?
2. Calendar appointments listed under "iCloud" do not show up on my "To-Do Bar" applet in the mail screen or Outlook Today home screen.
How can I add these appointments to be visible on these screens?

By any chance are you running any Eset security software products (like Nod32) on that PC?

Trying to import email files but Thunderbird doesn't show any "import from" choices when Outlook 2007 is my default email program

Have installed, uninstalled and reinstalled Thunderbird, no change. Am going by the how-to article that says "In order to import messages from Outlook to Thunderbird, Outlook must be the default mail client."
After all this, I will have to move the files from a Windows 7 machine to a new Windows 8 machine which will not have any Office programs on it.

Calendar sync broken Outlook 2007 and iPhone 4.1

If I add a new Calendar event on my iPhone, it does not synch over to Outlook Calendar. If I add new event to my Outlook Calendar, it does not synch over to iPhone. Same with deleted events. Everything else, including Contacts, syncs OK. The combination (iPhone/Outlook/Vista) has been working flawlessly for past 9 months.
I tried the following experiment: (1) I deleted all events from my (backed up) Outlook Calendar created one event and it synced OK (it was addedto my existing iPhone calendar events.) (2) I checked Replace Information on the iPhone and synced again. As expected, all calendar events on iPhone disappeared except for the one event. (3) I reloaded my Outlook calendar from backup,did another sync (did not check the Replace box) and a few random events (from amongst hundreds) got transferred from Outlook to iPhone. (4) I deleted all calendar events from iPhone, retored the iPhone from backup, createda few new entires on iPhone and Outlook, did a sync the problem persisted: no new entries got moved from iPhone to Outlook for from Outlook to iPhone.

You helped me so much with your previous 2 posts! Thank you!
I have followed nearly alll your ideas (did the scanpst.exe but not the different pc, did do the different user). I figured it could be my outlook, itunes, or useraccount.
In the new outlook with the new itunes in the new user: No problem!
So I checked my old .pst file and made this the standard in Outlook. Still no problem. iTunes wouldn't budge. So back to my own user account. Blegh...
So I removed iTunes completely, following http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923 (Vista).
After installing iTunes again (first restarting my laptop) I first set my map to the 'old' iTunes map in Music. My Outlook was still the 'old' pst I used before. However: it worked! Had to sync twice the first time, but the last hour or so it worked like it should!
Thank you so much!
Oh, and that other problem I know just as well. What I did:
1 - make sure there is nó other .pst in Outlook.
2 - sync
3 - then have both the first checkmark (sync calendar with outlook) filled in, as well as the desired calender AND the 'replace data' for agenda at the bottom of the page.
4 - sync
5 - if this didn't work, repeat step 3 with the bullet for ALL calendars selected as well as the replace data (or what's it called in English) checked.
6 - sync
Hope this will help. I had to do this a couple of times, with both outlook and the app calender off. Then restarted both the iPhone and my laptop, did these steps again and voilá...
Please let me know if it worked for you!
And thank you again.
