[Outlook] tasks and... sub tasks.

Inside Outlook, I would like to have sub-tasks features.
Often I need to nest some sub-tasks into a main task.
There's some workaround ...or extra plug in to do it?
bye

Hi,
Outlook does not have the capability for subtasks without add-ins. Numbering is the usual recommendation.
For example:
Task
1.1
Subtask A
1.2
Subtask B
Furthermore, the add-ins called Taskline might get the function of organizing tasks in hierarchy. You may refer to the link:

My Outlook tasks disappeared, how do I recover? I am using MS Office for Mac 2011 and software is update.

My Outlook tasks have disappeared. Have update all software. How can I recover or fix?

Go to the "View" option at the top of the page and then move down to "Go to" and see if Task is an option there. If it is, then select it to see whare it takes you. It may repopulate your task view, but only the trial will tell.

Q10 sync outlook notes and tasks

please fix the q10 so it can sync outlook notes and tasks - a very important feature!

I find it shocking that this "issue" has still not been resolved. Why do you keep giving people reasons to switch? Tasks and notes are integral to many people's BB experience...

Mail Marked with Quick Flags (follow up) in Outlook, Tasks - TO-DO LIST - Not SYNCING

This question goes for Outlook 2003 and Outlook 2007
I'm currnetly using outlook 2007
In Outlook I store mail marked with "quick flags" (follow-up). Outlook shows theses flagged emails under Tasks \ To-Do List. To-Do list is under TASKS in outlook, but does not sync with Blackberry.
I use Desktop Manager 4.7 to synchronize outlook and my blackberry curve 8330 (calendar, memos, tasks and contacts). The behaviour of task synchronization makes that only task appears on my blackberry but not the flagged mails.
I guess what i'm asking, is it possible to synchronize the complete outlook to-do list with my blackberry?

Outlook already provides that feature (depends on the version of Outlook I guess) :
https://www.officecalendar.com/news/2006April4_convert_emails_to_appts.aspx
otherwise there is a macro that does the same :

Outlook tasks completed in iOS Reminders app regenerate 'orphaned' reminders endlessly in Outlook.

Our small business runs up-to-date (iOS 8) Apple devices that sync via MS Exchange with our email, contacts, reminders, etc.
I create a task in Outlook and include a reminder. The task and reminder sync to Reminders on my iPhone and iPad. When I mark a task complete on mobile, the reminder disappears there as it should... but it regenerates the reminder in Outlook! The Outlook task is complete, but the reminder pops up at the top of the list in the Outlook reminders pop-up window. Marking it complete there is an option, but it just regenerates a new reminder. The only way to remove this 'orphan' reminder is to dismiss the reminder or delete the task.
The iOS 8 Reminders app would be very useful but for this bug. It's even better that it puts my work tasks and home tasks (we use a Mac at home so no problem there) in one place. But as it is, the app is not a time saver, but a time-waster and a source of frustration.
Please advise!

I do not know the answerr. Ik also have same question

How can I sync my Microsoft Outlook tasks with my Ipad reminders? I dont want to use Icloud or an exchange

Plug it into your computer. Tell it to sync with "this computer" instead of iCloud. You shouldn't have to remove any apps. Otherwise, you can save the app data by using i-FunBox ( http://www.i-funbox.com/ ) just go to the "devices" tab and select 'user applications' and select all of your apps and tell iFunBox to "copy to pc" you're done! You have them all backed up.

Some Outlook tasks only showing up in Outlook Web App, even if they were entered in Outlook 2013 or on the iOS email client.

A user creates tasks in Outlook 2013, his Exchange email account on his iPhone and in the Outlook Web App (Not Outlook.com). A small number of these tasks will only show up in the Outlook Web App, though, no matter which platform he entered the
task from. He can enter a task in Outlook 2013 and it might not show up on the task list in Outlook 2013 or IOS after that, but WILL show up in the outlook Web App task list.
At first I thought sorting was the issue, but we compared all tasks in both Outlook 2013 and OWA, sorted by due date, and, sure enough, some were missing from 2013.
What I am not sure of:
If/how long a task will be visible on the platform it was submitted before it begins only appearing in OWA.
How long ago this started
I couldn't find this issue in the community or with a quick google search.
I am going to see when he is available to sit down and go through tasks to see if there is a pattern and try replicate it so I can see how long it might be available on the submitting platform before disappearing.
I can provide any other info needed. Thoughts on this issue?

Hi,
I would suggest you reset the view if you found some tasks in Outlook missing.
VIEW tab -> Reset View.
Or we can simply start Outlook with the switch "/cleanviews"(Restores default views. All custom views that you created are lost):
Press Win + R and type “outlook.exe /cleanviews” in the blank box, then press Enter.
Check if this helps you find the missing tasks.
Thanks,

Outlook task list sync?

Is there a way that I can sync my Itouch to my outlook task list? I really need some help.

There is no a way to sync Outlook To-Dos or Notes, much to many people's chagrin, including mine. There have been many requests made to Apple for this functionality. Hopefully they will listen someday.
I have given up on Notes for now. For To-Dos, I use the Home calendar on the Touch and in Outlook for my To-Dos. It is not perfect because Outlook will not display reminders, but since my Touch is always close at hand, it works for me.
Hope that helps.

Reminders wont sync with my outlook tasks etc.

have updated both my ipad2 and iphone 4 to the new operating system, and was expecting reminders to work as mail and calanders have.
have is set up some thing incorrectly?

Unfortunately Tasks-to-Reminders syncing is only possible via an Exchange server or via iCloud. However syncing Tasks to Reimnders via iCloud has its own set of issues (it's not a true sync imho).
Unlike calendar, contacts, mail, and notes, you cannot sync Outlook Tasks to iOS5 Reminders via USB/iTunes.
To use iCloud to sync this one Outlook data type:
Install the iCloud Control Panel, which will also install add-on in Outlook
Set up Reminders sync
New "iCloud" groups will automatically be created in Outlook Calendars and Tasks (even if you only choose to sync Reminders/Tasks)
I'd still love to know why Apple continues to leave only Outlook Tasks off the list of USB/iTunes sync-able things...
Here's an Apple KB article to get you started (if you want to try iCloud)

Hmmm. I do believe that Apple has set it up so that tasks sync in reminders in my iOS device, so that would be something to do with Apple, don't you think?

I usually have annexes in my outlook tasks, but I can´t see them in the apps I downloaded, is there any app I can use yo do this?

With the iPad connected to the computer, while iTunes is running, click on the iPad name on the left side under devices. Click on the Movies tab and look for Movie Rentals. You want to "Move" the films to the iPad.

Syncing Outlook Tasks

How do I sync my Outlook Tasks to my Iphone? My company is on Exchange Server 2007.

Try an app called iMTasks. There is a free "test" version called iM Lite Viewer to see if it works.
The app itself works very well and says it's 2007 compatible

ICloud Tasks / Outlook Tasks

I am using iCloud for my iPhone 4S and synching with Outlook 2010 on a PC. After much searching I understand that iCloud tasks and calendars can not be made the defaults in Outlook so therefore they will not show up in Outlook Today or the To-Do bar. I have gotten around the appointment issue by copying my appointments from iCloud calendar to the outlook personal folder. I want to have my tasks show up on the To Do bar by copying the tasks from the iCloud folder to the Outlook folder. I can't find how to copy. I can move by simply dragging from one to the other. Does anyone know how to copy?

Press and hold the control key while dragging the task from iCloud tasks to Outlook tasks.

Outlook Tasks Only Does Not Sync

I can get everything to sync to my Outlook 2007 except my Tasks. I don't receive much help on it, only message in the Log is Outlook Tasks synchronization failed.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Nothing tells me why it failed. Thanks!

Not first time syncing, but fairly new to it, have been having troubles getting everything to sync with my Outlook so I just keep plugging along until I get it right!
Now I get an error message that reads:
- HH overwrite Desktop Sync
Outlook Tasks synchronization failed
Not sure what I'm doing wrong, I must have my Tasks set up incorrectly in my Palm that it can't read it. But thanks for the help, I didn't know that option was out there and has helped me with some other issues!

Why can't I arrange my iCloud tasks in Outlook like I can with my standard Outlook tasks?

Normally when I want to work a task tomorrow or next week or so, I can just drag the task to the appropritate area instead of having to open up the task and manaully change the date.
This works fine for my Outlook tasks unless it's from the iCloud. Why won't my tasks from iCloud do this?
Thanks,
"Spooman_101"

I ended up fixing it. Here's what I did:
- Deleted the iCal preferences file (com.apple.ical.plist, in your library folder under your user name...not the main library folder)
- Rebooted
That seemed to unstick this, and my system then recognized the calendar option as selected for iCloud, and iCal worked fine.

OS X Lion conflicting with Outlook tasks

I have just updated my Mac to Lion and i got some sort of error. It tells me that my 192 Outlook tasks "conflicted" and asked me to try and move them to iCal. I got some of the tasks but not all of them.
How can I get my 192 "conflicted" tasks restored?
Thanks,
Jesper

Which year's version of Outlook are you using? You didn't say. The Office for Mac 2004 version of Outlook is Not compatible with Lion for instance.
Hope this helps
