Outlook for Mac - Calendars Suddenly Hiding

Hello everyone,
I've been scouring the net trying to find someone else having this issue and have not had any luck. Hoping maybe one of you might have some insight.
We are running Exchange 2010. I have a Mac user who is running OS X 10.4.4 and (as of my posting this) he is running the most up to date version of Microsoft Office 2011 for Mac.
The issue he is having is that randomly, shared calendars that he has selected will become deselected and not show in his calendar. The shared calendar is still connected, the check box to enable viewing it has just be deselected. Once he checks the box again, the calendar will once again show up. 5 mins later, it (or another shared calendar) will deselect itself again.
I'm not really sure where to start with this one. Anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks!

Why did Apple remove the INFO tab in iTunes? I like syncing my Outlook for Mac Calendar to my iPhone.

I find the iCal very restricting and like using my Outlook for Mac calendar and contacts. But with the new Maverick, they have removed this feature. Why can't they play nice w/Microsoft?

This has nothing to do with Microsoft. It was removed with Mavericks for syncing direct with Apple's Address Book and iCal, etc. via the iTunes sync process as well.

How to filter Outlook for Mac calendar events by category using AppleScript

Hi all --
I'm trying to write an Applescript on OSX to filter Outlook for Mac 2011 calendar events based on event categories, e.g. find all events tagged as "Conference". For example, I have a calendar event named "WWDC" that is found by the following script:
tell application "Microsoft Outlook"
set theCategoryConference to first category whose name is "Conference"
set theConferenceList to every calendar event whose (subject is "WWDC")
display dialog "There were " & (count of theConferenceList) & " Conferences."
set theEvent to item 1 of items of theConferenceList
display dialog "Categories contains conference: " & (categories of theEvent contains {theCategoryConference})
end tell
The above finds 1 event, and the final line displays "true" as this event has been tagged with the Conference category.
However what I really want to do is find all such events. The following fails to match any events:
set theConferenceList to every calendar event whose categories contains {theCategoryConference}
ThIs seems to me like it should work, but returns 0 matching events. Is there a different syntax to use, or is this a limitation of Outlook for Mac that perhaps doesn't allow filtering events based on a nested collection (the categories attribute on calendar event objects)?
Thanks!
Ramon

Hello
I don't have Outlook 2011 but only guess here.
Generally speaking, AppleScript's "whose" filter is very limited and does not support list containment test. So perhaps you'd have to resort to something like the following script, which actually scans the events for test.
tell application "Microsoft Outlook"
    my events_with_categories({category "Conference"})
end tell
on events_with_categories(cats)
        list cats : list of categories to be matched
        return list : list of calendar events whose categories contain every item of cats
    script o
        property ee : {}
        property cc : {}
        tell application "Microsoft Outlook"
            set ee to calendar events
            repeat with e in my ee
                set e to e's contents
                set cc to e's categories
                set _match to true
                repeat with c in cats
                    set c to c's contents
                    if c is not in my cc then
                        set _match to false
                        exit repeat
                    end if
                end repeat
                if _match then set end of my ee to e
            end repeat
            return my ee's contents
        end tell
    end script
    tell o to run
end events_with_categories
Notes.
* Script is not tested.
* IF this works but is too slow, we may try to speed it up by retrieving categories of events (list of lists) in one statement, by which we can dramatically reduce the total number of Apple Events to send.
Good luck,
H

Can't sync Outlook for Mac Calendar with iCloud

I've just updated my Macbook Pro to OS X and now I can't get my Outlook for Mac 2013 (14.3.9) Calendar to sync with my iPhone 5. It seems iTunes no longer allows for syncing calendars and it all has to happen via iCloud. Is this correct? How do I get them to sync, then? I've looked in other discussions (from a while ago) and none of those fixes are working. Thanks in advance!

Thank you, randers4. Not the solution I wanted but I am glad to get an answer. I'd thought that since the support articles I'd seen came out before the latest update (you're right, I do have 2011) that maybe there was a work-around. Of course all of this has been discovered after I entered my three kids' baseball/softball practice and game schedules into Outlook. Any quick and dirty way to transfer it all over?
Thanks so much for taking the time to answer me. Copious amounts of time has been wasted on this issue and I'l be glad to move forward.
Warmly,
Sara

How can I get Outlook for Mac Calendar synced to Google Calendar?

The Mac calendar produces a view of the Outlook calendar and good syncing. But I cannot find a way of syncing this view with Google calendar. I can get a separate view in Mac Callendar of mt Google calendar adn again good syncing. But I cannot get the Outlook view on Mac calendar across to the google view. What am I missing here?

Dear Klaus, Many thanks for your response. However as far as I can see the Outlook in this thread is always on a Windows PC. My Outlook is on the Mac.
I can sync to Mac Calendar V6 with Outlook 2011 for Mac and with Google calendar. But the Google sync and the Outlook sync are in diferent accounts although both visible on the Mac Calendar at the same time. However I cannot find a way of using the Mac Calendar to bidge across from the "On my Mac" account (which is synced with the Outlook for Mac) to the Google account.
Kind regards, P.

I run Outlook for Mac on my Macbook Air (with Yosemite). I need to sync my Outlook calendar with my iPhone and iPad - is there a way or app available ?

Syncing Outlook for Mac calendar with iPhone & iPad

Veranda Magazine is a free app available for iOS devices in the iOS App Store. You then purchase a Veranda Magazine subscription from within the app. In other words, the app itself is free, but the contents are not.
There is no way to duplicate or import this to a Mac. Your Mac runs a totally different operating system.
iBooks can now import to Mac since OS X Mavericks came out about a month ago. But that does not apply to magazines or iOS Newsstand publications.

BB BOLD 9700 sync issues with Outlook for MAC

Hi Support,
I hope that you can help me? I have been having issues with my BB calendar not being able to sync with my Outlook for MAC calendar. I am using BB OS 6.0, Blackberry Desktop software 2.2.0 and Mac OS X version 10.7.2.
I have been able toget around the calendars not syncing but this morning I added iCal to iCloud, stupid move as it erased my entire calendar.
i was wondering if someone could help me restore my Outlook calendar and have my BB and calendar sync properly.
Please Help!!!

Hello and welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
The BlackBerry Desktop Software needs a local calendar for sync. It does not support the iCloud.
You will need to create a new local calendar in your iCal to continue synchronizing with the Desktop Software.
As for restoring your Outlook calendar, you will need to talk to Apple for assistance.

I'm too old to learn iCal. How do I tell iTunes to synch with Outlook for Mac for all of the Contacts and the Calendar on my iPhone and iPad?? Thanks

I'm too old to learn iCal. How do I tell iTunes to synch with Outlook for Mac for all of the Contacts and the Calendar on my iPhone and iPad??
Also, once I figure out how to replace iCal with Outlook/Mac on iTunes, how do I synch the phone and pad so that the information on those devices over-writes onto Outlook as a backup, rather than having a blank Calendar on Outlook wipe out all of the information on the phone and pad???
Thanks

If you haven't tried already, plug your devices into iTunes, and on each device next to the "Summary" tab at the top is another tab called "Info." Click that and scroll down to Contacts, Calendars, etc. There should be a pull down bar under each category for "Sync contacts from..." and you should be able to select from that pull down list Outlook. Hit Apply at the bottom and see if that does it.

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:

HT3748 since upgrading to Mountain Lion, my Mac Mail no longer works well w/exchange email; so, I have had to switch back to outlook. Now, how can I use outlook for mac's calendar and contacts with icloud?

Since uprgading to Mountain Lion, my mac mail no longer works with my exchange email properly. I finally gave up and moved back to outlook for mac, but now my new issue is using outlook calendar and contacts with icloud; possible?

Sorry but I'm really not to sure what I have. I'm not good with knowing my computer model. All I know is that its a MacBook running with Leopard. I got my computer last year so I suppose its fairly new. Is there a place on my computer where I can check to see what it is (sorry to be so dumb with my own mac)
And everything else works fine. I love Safari. It's just my mail that doesn't work. Here's the message that pop up several times.
"The MobileMe IMAP server “mail.mac.com” rejected the password for user “akcastaldo”
Please re-enter your password, or cancel."
The only problem here is, even though I enter my password it doesn't do anything. It makes that message go away for about 3-5 mins. After that it pops right back up. And I can't even go into my preference and change my email password. So I don't know what to do.

Outlook 2011 for mac calendar and iPhone 6 sync

Dear All,
Actually this is very simple question. But unfortunatelly nobody ( Apple and MS side ) answered me clearly.
So i want to be sure that there is "no way" to synchronize the Outlook 2011 for Mac "Calendars" with my iPhone6 via iTunes or any other way.
This was possible old iTunes before, but the new iTunes and Yosemite are not give this chance. So why ? what happened ?
Please tell me "clearly" IF there is a way. and please specify one by one.
Thank you very much.
PS: I am not an exchange user, i am a POP user.

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.
aawwii

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.

Calendar events issue Outlook for Mac: Failure to update or send notification for meetigns

We are seeing an issues with Outlook for Mac 2011 and calendar events. These events are in the past and Outlook will randomly post errors about the event stating that it has failed to make changes, please contact the original creator.
Additionally, some users are reporting that Outlook will not successfully send meeting cancellation notices to Windows users. All of the server and directory settings are setup correctly. Is there an issue with Outlook for Mac successfully sending
back to the Exchange server here? We're running Exchange server 2007 SP1 and in the midst of upgrading to 2013. Hopefully this and a host of other issues are resolved with 2013.
Thanks.
