Outlook Calendar and I-Pod, Who has gotten this to work?

I am at a complete loss. I have a 5th generation I-pod video. When I first got it (last spring) I could get it to sync with my contacts and calendar from Outlook. At times it would cause the program to hang, or not always bring over information, but most of the time it worked. I upgraded to 7.0 when it came out and that stopped the calendar completely. I’ve tried looking at past postings. I’ve searched the web. I’ve looked all over Apple’s website for a e-mail address for tech support or maybe even a live chat option. Wow, I thought Apple was supposed to be pretty good on the support end.
Anyway, does anyone know of a fix for this? I’m currently using the latest I-tunes and the latest i-pod software (updated 12/20/06). The contacts do come across, but not the calendar. If Apple personal looks at this PLEASE post a response.
Anyone? Heck at this point I’d even be up for third party software just to get the info over. Suggestions?

There is a thread in 'Connecting IPOD to Windows' from somebody who was trying to use Outlook 2007 Beta with a contribution that says:
I finally got it working... I'm not sure what it was that got it to finally work again, but here's the steps I took:
1.) I downloaded and installed the 1.2.1 update for my 5th Generation iPod today.
2.) I had turned off the calendar and contacts feature a while back (since it wasn't working with Beta 2 of Outlook 2007).
3.) I turned off the "Enable Disk Use" feature.
4.) Unplugged the iPod, plugged it back in and turned on the "Sync Calendar" (and I'm not choosing "All Calendars" - just the one I have selected) and clicked "Apply". iTunes then started synchronizing my calendar and I unplugged and checked the iPod to make sure my calendar items were there.
5.) Plugged the iPod back in and turned on "Sync Contacts" (All Contacts) and clicked "Apply". iTunes synchronized both my contacts and calendar and I unplugged the iPod - and sure enough - both were there (including the Contact Photos I had set up in Outlook 2007).
I'm betting it was a fix in the 1.2.1 firmware/software update that got it working -- Good Job Apple!

  • Syncing Outlook Calendars and Contacts with iPhone - There is NO SOLUTION

    I have searched the Apple support forums, Mac Forums, MS forums, spoken to Microsoft Support and iCloud support. Everybody says that there is no way to directly sync Outlook Calendars and Contacts with iPhone and other remote devices and nobody has a work around. I see 100s of forum threads started with this issue, most have no answer and the few that do are not offering solutions. I post this as a final effort to seek a solution! Who will be my savior? Or should I just admit defeat and allow myself to be cast aside in the battle between two giant corporate babies who don't like to play in the same sandbox?
    Is my knight in shining armor out there?!

    The information is correct, MS do not support the Dav standard in Outlook for Mac (but they do in Outlook for Windows), until they add support for it Calendars and Contacts will not work with Outlook for Mac.

  • Mix between MS Outlook Calendar and Mac Contacts - how I got to work

    I've tried to mix my work PC computer with Microsoft Outlook Calendar with my Mac based iPhone. This is how I did it. Can this be done by mobileme?
    For Now it this works with Outlook over USB.
    My Microsoft Office Outlook 2003 windows XP within firewall is now synchronized to my Phone
    It now works great .. even if not wireless [can live with that..at least for now] and even if attachment does not sync no pdf, word, excel or pictures in the notes is synchronized.
    Amazingly simple, I'm sure I tried this before ..but maybe the 2.01 changed something or iTunes 7.7.1 ..
    My set up
    I have my master mac synced to the iPhone itself i.e. iPod/music and pictures
    I have my contacts and mail synced as MobileMe.
    I Turned off the iCal MobileMe
    I connected the office laptop with usb connector to iPhone. ..it asks for where/how to sync photos. [To turn this off: On PC go to Control panel- Scanners & Hardware - Cameras. Select "Apple iPhone" ] and opens ITunes.
    ITunes ask what to do since my iPhone is linked with another computer.. I click merge, make sure nothing on the iTunes is selected ..more than calendar and outlook.
    Appears to sync fawlessy and update both to and from iPhone… subject and location and notes sync but no attachment. Notes have a characther limit. with a meeting request, I do not seam to be able to access participants. With alarm set this pops up even with screen/iPhone locked similar to how a SMS is displayed
    It appears that most of the time I need to reconnect because ITunes reports "ITunes cannot sync information because sync has been disabled…Do you want to enable syncing" Clicking OK appears to fix it i.e. at least fix it temporarily
    Syncing with MS Outlook works with it running but also when not running.
    The first sync took some time, possibly because it also backs up the iPhone [some 10gb data]. Repeated sync takes a minute or less
    ..and in atypical PC fashion you need to restart iTunes and disconnect iPhone from time to time.
    Great!

    The HP applications no longer work under Snow Leopard. Support for printing and scanning with HP devices is now built in to the OS. See http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3669. Updated HP drivers are available at http://support.apple.com/kb/DL907
    I was unsure about which HP software to delete so I used the HP uninstall app to delete it all. Unfortunately, it deleted the new Snow Leopard installed drivers as well. I then had to download the HP driver set from Apple to restore functionality. Printing is just as it was before, but scanning is done differently and feels a bit strange at first. All in all, it is probably a good thing as I always found HP's software to be a bit clunky and crash prone. I do miss being able to scan from within Photoshop via the TWAIN selection, though. Perhaps that will return in time.

  • Synchronizing Outlook Calendar and Contacts with Blackberry Q10

    I got a new Blackberry Q10 device and wanted to synchronize it with my Outlook calendar and contacts on my notebook. I installed Blackberry Link on the notebook. But in a pop down menu I was only allowed to choose from 2 pst-files which are not the correct ones. The one I want to choose is in another folder. But how can I select this one to synchronize with?
    Thanks for your help. And sorry for the silly question, but I am only a very normal user without any specific know how.
    Kind regards
    Malika

    Hey MalikaBauer,
    Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
    Thanks for the question.
    Is the Microsoft Outlook profile that you're currently trying to access on an Microsoft Exchange server or is hosted at a different location?  If so, you will not be able to access that PST with BlackBerry Link.
    BlackBerry Link currently only supports local PST files.
    Let me know if you have any more questions.
    Cheers.

  • Outlook calendar and contacts sync limits with Xperia Z1 Compact

    I have just set up my Xperia to sync with Outlook Calendar and contacts- took a while to realise outlook calendar needed to be closed to work, however now that I am able to sync my calendar and contact, I am only able to sync some of the items in my contact and the calendar updates to my phone only sync for a few months.  Is there an option on this phone or in PC Companion where I can sync all calendar and contact entries, or somewhere that limits entries that I can switch off?

    There was a setting I hadn't found in the PC Companion software:
    On the start sync page there is a settings heading next to a spanner on the righthand side - this takes you to sync settings
    Select Personal Data Selection and then the properties button for Calendar
    You can then set the sync to select all your appointments or a subset.
    I hope that this helps someone - it has taken hours to find this setting!

  • Just want to sync Outlook calendar and Iphone without paying extra $$

    I am currently using Mobile Me trial membership to sync my Outlook Calendar and Iphone calendar. Just that only -- I don't want to sync my Outlook e-mail or contacts with my phone. But I don't want to pay $99 for for Mobile Me after the free trial runs out in October.
    Will I have to pay to sync?
    I need to sync them a couple times a day, it has to be secure, and I don't want to do it manually with a wire.
    Any advice?

    Jon,
    I could connect the cord and sync each night, but that's too difficult to remember.
    That's how I did it for a year with the first iPhone. It wasn't that bad.
    Still, over the air synching is pretty cool, especially if you update your calendar throughout the day and always want the latest information on the phone.

  • Outlook Calendar and Contact Sync with Nano

    Just wondering if apple is working on a service pack for itunes 5.0 that will actually allow itunes to properly sync up with outlook calendar and contacts without getting that -50 error (or -20). forgot error code !!!

    As others have said in your other posts, no one here knows or can say what Apple is working on.
    If you haven't seen this KB article:

    perhaps it will help.

  • I have 2 IPOD touches and now an IPAD2;I use outlook calendar and contacts, and now my devices are not syncing all the information in the calendar. Help?

    I now have 2 IPOD touches , 1 8 GB,1 32G plus an IPAD 2 that I've been having syncing issues with.
    my Dell D830 Latitude w/windows XP. I use outlook calendar and contacts, and the syncing is not
    completely syncing the outlook information. Help?

    Yes.  Just sync them to the same iTunes library.  iTunes will keep track of each so you can put what you want on each.  I do this with a 3G and iPad2. Note that each device will have it's own backup.

  • "Device Pin not set in TransConfig.xml.for translator RimBB" message when I try to sync my BBZ10 with Outlook Calendar and Contacts

    Hello, Does anyone know how I can sync my BBZ10 with my computers Outlook Calendar and Contacts? It was working but since my computer returned from being repaired it doesn't sync and gives me the following message
    "Device Pin not set in TransConfig.xml.for translator RimBB"

    I did resolve it, it was so long ago but here's what I suggest:
    -First remove the software on your computer by going to the add/remove programs if you're using a PC. If you're using Mac, I'm not sure where you go. 
    -Then go to BB website and download the correct program for you phone
    -Check both your phone and computer have all their updates
    With the newest updates I have no trouble syncing my calendar/contacts from my PC to my BB and vice versa. It was just initially when the BB was so new they hadn't updated the programs. Over time the fixed the glitch, this is why I recommend you remove the program you have and start over, it will probably fix itself.

  • I can hardly believe my old school Palm Pre was much friendlier than the IPhone.  I have had it for more than six months and still cannot sync my Outlook calendars and contacts.  I get a message like, "no calendar application  identified."    help!

    My old school palm pre was much friendlier than the IPHONE 3G.  I was able to sync my outlook calendars and contacts via wi-fi effortlessly.  I tunes did sync once or twice in the six months that I have had it, but more often it acts like it is syncing and ultimately delivers a message like "no calendar application is supported".  Why the back and forth.  Very frustrating after literally hours of trying to sync my phone with my Outlook calendar and contacts.  HELP!!!!

    What version of MS Office do you have installed? Have you tried re-installing office over top of itself? It may not be properly registered with the OS.

  • New 3GS hangs when syncing Outlook calendars and contacts

    My new 3GS hangs when syncing Outlook calendars and contacts on my PC running XP. I've read a bunch of previous similar posts but haven't seen a solution. Does anyone have any hints? Thanks in advance

    This is a rare problem these days; it was common with earlier versions of the firmware. It is usually caused by a corrupted database in Outlook. Open contacts in Outlook and check the first few entries. Open each, make a change, and save it. If you get an error saving it you should either delete it, or export the entire address book from within Outlook, then reimport it. One of these will fix the problem if it is a corrupt entry.
