Outlook Sync Client has stopped working

Running the latest iTunes, new iPhone 4 and Outlook 2010 (incluing Outlook connector for Hotmail sync) on Win7 64 bit.
Sync to iphone process fails if attempting to sync any Outlook content. Windows reports an appcrash, with the message "Outlook Sync Client has stopped working". However, Internet Explorer favourites do Synch fine.
I have run scanpst.exe on my .pst files(as suggested elswhere) to no avail. I'm completely stumped - does anyone know how to rectify this???

Phone field issue: When I add a contact on the iPhone from Google Maps (like I find a restaurant I like), I use the Add to Contacts option. It adds it. But when I sync to MobileMe, the phone doesnt come over. I found that the iPhone by default uses a phone field called Other or Default or Main that MobileMe doesn't like.
Being that Apple makes the iPhone AND MobileMe, you would hope this would all work. To fix, I edit the contact on the iPhone and change the field name from Other to Work, and then it syncs fine.
No big deal, but a bit annoying.
No, task synchronization is strangely absent from the whole iPhone experience. (sigh).
Notes are synced with iTunes. MobileMe doesn't do Notes. It does Calendar, Contacts, eMail, and you can upload pictures/videos from your iPhone, and soon you will be able to access online storage.
You can also try Google Sync. Google syncs calendar and contacts. They too have a phone field problem. Contacts with 4 or 5 phones only have 2 or 3 come over (at least it did it for me when I tried it). The best part of Google Sync is that it is free. MobileMe costs money, but it also has a very cool Find my iPhone feature. You can go to the MobileMe website and it will locate your iPhone if you lose it, and give you the option of a remote wipe of all data. Very nice.

    When performing sync operation I get the following error message: "Outlook client has stopped working".

    Glad that your sync is working again
    Check if  resetting the sync history works with the calendar issue.
    iTunes --> Edit --> Preferences -->Devices --> Reset Sync History
    And then sync again
    (Though, for me I had to permanently switch to a new data file in Outlook 2007 and sync things again)

  • Sync Outlook Calendar message "Apple Outlook DAV Config has stopped working"

    Hi There,
    I've installed the Windows iCloud Control Panel tool, and I'm trying to sync some of my Outlook data to iCloud. Contacts works fine, and tasks appeared to work fine the first time, but syncing my calendar consistently fails with this message:
    "Apple Outlook DAV config has stopped working"
    My calendar is rather large, but it was larger still (over 5000 entries), so I archived some older items, but it still fails now at about 1800 items out of 2000.
    Has anyone seen this before? Any suggestions?
    Cheers,
    Trevor

    Hi Levanterman,
    Yes I tried that, and there were errors. I fixed my pst file. But then my I got a new error. Which resulted in the process actually generating an email would you believe it to Apple support staff, I presume saying:
    Help Apple improve its products by sending us diagnostic and usage information about iCloud.
    By sending this message, you agree that Apple will collect and use this information as part of its support services and to improve its products and services. This information is collected anonymously. To learn more about Apple's Privacy Policy, see http://www.apple.com/legal/privacy.
    Your setup couldn't be started because of an unexpected error.
    Error: 0x80040604: No reason set
    So you can imagine my frustration with all of this, but I agee, I think with dylanfromhuxley above, it is probably some errant specific calendar item. Unfortunately, I'm not willing to go to the trouble of "demolishing" my calendar to re-build it again, just to get the iCloud sync going ... I'l probably revert to doing good old wired syncing here, until I here confirmed reprots that that this clearly 1.0 version of the Outlook integration has matured somewhat.
    Cheers,
    Trevor.

  • When I start my computer, I get popup error msg that "Apple Sync Notifier" has stopped working.  I have tried several remedies suggested by those on the Apple (and Roxio) tech support. Nothing has worked. Trying to burn disc or puchased ITUNES.

    I have been trying to burn newly purchased (as well as last year purchases) ITunes to a disc.   I had burned some of these songs to a disc last year and all went well.   Now I have been getting this popup telling me that the AppleSync Notifier has stoped working & the corefoundation.dll needs to be re-installed.  Also that Windows will try to fix the problem.   Every time I try to burn the disc, the computer sends the disc back out and the screen tells me to put in a blank recordable disc.   I have tried 4 different new discs now and the same thing happens.
    I am running Windows Vista.
    Have been to the Roxio web site for help as well as Apple.
    Have tried many "fixes" such as:  updating latest version of Direct X from the Microsoft website;   Disabling startup items;   going to local disc C and into the Apple/Apple Appplication support and right-clicking on the SQLite3.dll and moving it tomobile support device window.   Nothing has worked.  What can I do to get some music recorder?   Should I buy a new cassette deck and record onto tape like I did 20 years ago?   This is a very important disc I am making as a gift & I need to get it done by this weekend.    Is there anyone that can offer good advice?

    love paying a lot of money for something that doesn't work right, thanks apple

  • Sync outlook contacts message "Apple Outlook DAV Config has stopped working

    During download of contacts from iCloud to Outlook 2010 in step 4 of 7, I get the above message. Have tried the following, clean .pst files in outlook, archive outlook data, remove all past appointments and i still get the error message. I moved from mobile.me to iCloud and all the contact from Outllok to iCloud appear to be uploading fine, but fail during the download cycle.

    After further investigation I went directly to iCloud via the web. I noticed that a "loading contact" message would come up and never go off. I had my contact in outlook backed up and decided to try to mark and delete all contacts directly in the iCloud. After that I tried another sync and iCloud merged my contacts in outlook with what I had already entered previously through mobile me. Worth noting is the fact that your contacts and calendars now will be moved and placed in an iCloud file within Outlook.

  • "Apple outlook DAV config has stopped working"

    Hi - when syncing Outlook for the first time with the iCloud control panel, I'm getting this error and the sync stops at appointment 1080 out of 1400 or so...
    Clearly one appointment is somehow corrupt and it's stopping the sync - however how do I find it?!

    Hi all,
    Seems I'm going to get a call in the next few hours from an Apple support rep...
    Assuming I do, and we get some kind of resolution, I'll post it here.
    Convinced it's a specific appointment issue which is causing the error - I remember having something similar on a Nokia a few years back. Remember them?

    also can try this solution once along with if you too wants to switch from Mac Outlook to Windows Outlook, here is a good solution for that matter too.

  • ITunes has stopped working when syncing iPad Air.

    Please:  someone help me....
    I am at my wits ends.  I have spent 3 days trying to solve this, without any success.  I have really time better off than sorting stupid software problems.   (Someone had a great rant, so I won't rehearse it - but it seems to me that
    if there is an issues, it should at least give some clear of what the software stops!!).  It seems to me that no one (NO ONE) is owning this problem  There are plenty of people who have the problem, and although some suggestions, it looks to me that
    there are just that - suggestions. 
    I have posted my problem on the Apple forum.  I have not heard.  But it seems to me that we (I) don't even know if it is an iTunes or a Windows problem.  and now I have no idea which way to go....
    Rant two ends.  The problem:
    I have windows 7 SP 1.  iTunes 12.0.1.26.  I can imports CDs and play music.  But when attempting to sync,"iTunes has stopped working". It stops (usually) step 6. No doubt many of people have seen the issue.  I problem have
    not attempting to update since updating iTunes 12.  (On the side, I have not been able to update iTunes without deleting and reinstalling it for some.  Accordingly, I update with some concern, and only updated to 12 because I installed a new (different
    laptop), and wanted to keep the same levels.
    The steps I tried
    Sync iPad Air (iOS 8.1).  Failed.
    Tried to sync iPhone 5S.  It stopped.  I then looked through the apps etc in the phone.  I noticed, that my photos were not being synced (I had an issue with memory issue some months ago - now sorted - and so checked resynced them.  
    Tried again, and worked.  Hmmm.  (iPhone is at iOS 8.1)
    Made changes with the apps etc on the iPad to recreate the same good result.  No success.
    I deleted iTunes etc (in the correct order) and reinstalled.  No success.  tried a number of times.  (one of the definitions stupid  is to try the same steps expecting a different result)
    Searched google, apple and microsoft pages.  Read them all.  No one seems to have a clear answer to the problem, let alone the solution.
    Backed up iPad, and restored iPad.  No success - and now, of course the thing is now in a totally uncertain state.  It won't ask for sync, but if iTunes starts, the iPad carries on.
    Deleted and reinstalled iTunes etc.  No success.  Tried again (and again? - I have lost track)
    Someone suggested going back to iTunes 11.4.  Tried that (once sorted out the library files have been changed).  Now, same result.  (it all worked happily previously)
    Tried a hard reset on the iPad.  No luck
    Discovered one post suggest that QuickTime may be a problem.  Deleted iTunes and Quick Time.  Reinstalled iTunes.  No success.
    Discovered turingtest's post "Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows" .  Followed the steps, including deleting the folders (only Program Files (x86)/common files/apple were there) and turned off AVG.  Same bad result.
    Status:
    I am thoroughly out of sorts.  And it is Tax time, which will not improve my temper.
    iTunes 12.0.1.26 installed. iCloud installed
    windows 7 SP1.  The PC is not asking for any updates.
    Qucktime not installed
    iOS 8.1.2
    iPad is probably useless, until problem solved - not all photos or apps downloaded
    HELP!!
    iPad Air, iOS 8.1.2, Windows 7

    Try Googling "sync without iTunes".
    There are free alternatives and there are not so free alternatives.
    Btw, to check if AVG is causing the problem, you should uninstall AVG and not just "turn it off".
    Also, can you describe how you go about uninstalling a program? For example, how did you "delete" iTunes?
