Outlook for Mac Contacts problem

I am using Outlook for Mac (2011) with an Exchange Account and the contacts General Tab is blank.  The other tabs, such as Organization, Details, etc seem to work fine.  I can also use contacts search, change it to the Enterprise Directory and it works fine?

  • Outlook for mac contacts

    I purchased outlook for Mac and can't figure out how to transfert my contacts.

    If you're trying to sync your contacts with iCloud, you won't be able to using Outlook for Mac.  Outlook cannot sync contacts or calendars with iCloud because Microsoft chose not to include the CardDAV and CalDAV protocols necessary to do so (see http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2648915).  If you want to sync these with iCloud you'll have to use the OS X calendar and contacts applications.

  • How do i sync Outlook for Mac contacts with apples address book ???

    How do I sync outlook for Mac 2011 contacts with Address book.  I updated the itunes or apple updates and it erased my contacts from the address book.  I did have is set up where the they automaticaly updated back and forth but now I can not find how to check this.  Bottom line I want my contacts back to address book. ??????? anyone.

    Outlook for Mac doesn't support contact (or calendar) syncing with iCloud because Microsoft  chose not to include the CardDAV (and CalDAV) protocals that are required (see http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2648915).  You'll have to use the OS X Address Book (Contacts) app to sync with iCloud.

  • HT204053 I am unable to sync all contacts on my iMac (which includes outlook for Mac contacts) with my iPad mini, how do I do this, I have enabled icloud on both devices and ticked all the boxes.

    I am unable to sync all contact in my address book on my imac with my ipad mini, it looks like only icloud & yahoo contact sync leaving out the ones in outlook for mac.  I have enabled icloud on both devices and ticked all the boxes.

    Thanks for that, but my Outlook contacts are synced to and all in my mac contacts book, does this not meen they would go to icloud,
    No, they are in the On My Mac account in the Mac Contacts app, not iCloud.
    or are they in a different format despite being in mac contacts?  If so can the outlook contacts be exported in some other way to icloud?
    Outlook is not compatible with iCloud, check Microsofts site if you need more verification.
    If you want them in iCloud use Mac Contacts and move them from On My Mac to iCloud. This will remove them from Outlook.

  • MacBook Air w/Outlook For Mac Sync Problems

    I recently bought a MacBook Air (had a PC) along w/Office for Mac
    I transferred my .pst to my new MacBook and lost 25% of my contacts but have them backed up on my Blackberry
    I tried to sync my BB to my Outlook and they won't talk, even my Calendar or Tasks
    I also noticed that even w/Sync they don't speak either
    I want to know how to get my contacts onto my Office Outlook from BB so when I get my iPhone4S I can sync all my contacts and Outlook calendar
    Can someone provide some guidance?
    thank you,

    Hi Rick,
    This is probably your best bet - http://www.markspace.com/
    I've never had good luck syncing Blackberry devices with OS X, especially with Entourage (the now discontinued Mac predecessor to Outlook). Missing Sync has never given me any issues/problems in the 4+ years that I've been using it with clients.

  • Outlook for Mac - database problem

    So I deleted some files from the User files on Mac to free up space on drive.  When I tried to open Outlook from Office for Mac 2011 I now get this meesage...
    There is a problem with the Office database. To use the database, you must rebuild it using the Database Utility.
    The Office database stores your personal information, such as the Scrapbook and Outlook messages and contacts. To continue, click Rebuild. After the rebuilding process is complete, close the Database Utility. Then the database will be available for your Office applications.
    When I tried to rebuild the main identity using the Microsoft Database Utility, it got to step 3 then came up with an error that reads:  Microsfot Database Utility has encountered a problem and needs to close...
    I am thining i need to unistall and re-install outllook.  Can anyopne provide any guidance/

    Are you Hispanophone? If so, you should make that clear. I suspect you are talking about Address Book, which in the Spanish-localised version of Mac OS X is called "Agenda". If so, try

  • Is there any way to sync Outlook for Mac with iPhone? I have tried everything but not successful. Apple says it is not possible to sync contacts from Outlook for Mac to iPhone 5. Any help will be much appreciated.

    Is there any way to Sync contacts from Outlook for Mac to iPhone 5? Apple support says that only iTune can only sync contacts from "Contact" which is the default contact of Mac. If one is running Outllok on a Mac machine then it is not possible to sync the contacts with iPhone. It is strange that Apple distributors are promoting and offering machines with promise that Windows users can now run MS Office on Mac machines without any problem. While this is true, it is so strange that one cannot sync the contacts from MacBook Pro to iPhone5. If someone has found a way to sync contacts from Outlook to iPhone 5 please help as it is very frustrating to not be able to sync the contacts. Thanks, Amit.

  • 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.

  • 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.

    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.

  • HT1692 Is there any way to add my iPhone contacts to Outlook for Mac 2011?  Syncing through iTunes does not seem to do that.

    I have a similar problem.
    Syncing my iPhone via USB cable and iTunes to Outlook 2011 syncs only my calender correctly to Outlook 2011. My iPhone contacts sync wit Apple's contacts, where I don't want them.
    Have you been able to find the solution to your problem?

  • If I switch to iCloud, Outlook for Mac is not synchronizing with iCal and iCloud anymore. Is there a solution for this problem?

    I normally use Outlook for Mac as the standard email and calendar programm. When I use the USB cable fro synchronising contacts and calendars with my iPhone 4s ther is not problem at all. iCal, Mail and Oulook for Mac are synchronising perfectly.
    When I switch to iCloud, Oulook is completely empty and Calendar and Contacts are not synchronised anymore.
    Is this a known problem, and is there a solution for it?

    I have the same keyboard and do not have battery issues.
    It may have something to do with using rechargeable batteries.
    You can also try removing the keyboard then re-pairing it. Maybe a bad bluetooth connection is draining the battery.
    System Preferences > Bluetooth > right-click (control-click) on the keyboard > Remove > Remove
    Wait for it to show in the bluetooth list then Pair > enter the number sequence & return as displyed on the screen.

  • 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.

  • My iPhone 4s is not synching with contacts in outlook for mac. Suggestions?

    My iphone was synching contacts and appointments with outlook for mac just fine via iCloud, but now it's not. I added the Pushmail app and that's when I noticed the change, so I deleted the app. Still it's not synching. I have the latest version of iTunes and the most recent iPhone OS and Mac OS/X 10.7.2.  So now I have to attach the iPhone to my macbook. So how do I get back "in-sync" with iCloud?

    I did assure that Outlook is set as my default email program before I posted this. 

  • Problems accessing info in Outlook for mac

    Hi,
    I have used Outlook for Mac ever since I bought my first macbook pro and it has been fine, but since I upgraded to my macbook pro and migrated files across to the retina, upgraded to Mavericks etc, I don't seem to be able to access files that should ahve trnasferred across.  the file structure are there but when I try to open something, the folder looks empty.  Going into Get Info and I get "outlook can't open the file because it is 'not associated with the deafult identity'. 
    I know the first reaction of apple is - this is not an apple product so we don't help, but I think this is a cop out as in this modern world where we're trying to get stuff to work seamlessly, that shouldn't really make a difference and in any event Apple were happy to sell me Outlook when I bought the laptop.  I will be posing the same question in the microsoft community.  But does anyone else recognise this problem and have a solution in language that someone who isn't very techy can understand?

    These are user to user forums, and I think if anyone can help they will, regardless of whether the product is made by Apple or not.  But as a practical matter, only a tiny % of the people reading your message here have any experience with outlook, while every person reading your message at the MS forum will have this:

    Also this is a hardware forum, and your problem is strictly software and is not related to the kind of Mac being used.  So a better place to ask would be
