Sync Outlook and iCloud

Hello!
PING to the server was lost imap.mail.me.com
Because of this I can not sync Outlook folders and iCloud?
What do I do?

You have to create your iCloud account on an iOS device such as your iPad (by going to Settings>iCloud and signing in with your Apple ID), or on a Mac running OS X Lion or higher. After creating the account, you can download and install the iCloud Control Panel for Windows on your PC from here: http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/pc.html (requires Vista SP2 or higher), then sign into your iCloud account, as explained here: http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/pc.html.

Outlook and iCloud, could they sync continually?

I just recently set up icloud on all my devices, I have an iphone and an HP computer. I use Outlook quite often and I love that it synchonizes with OneNote (a note taking program which is part of the Microsoft Office programs). OneNote allows me to create tasks inside of my notes, tasks which appear on Outlook, which then reminds me on my phone or my computer. However ever since I synced Outlook with iCloud this has not worked out. While Outlook and OneNote still sync perfectly, iCloud does not recieve any of the new tasks.
Is there a setting somewhere that will fix this? Is there anyway to keep uploading the Outlook calendar/tasks to iCloud?
If anyone has a solution I would greatly appreciate it!

Ah yes, forgot to mention that it looks fine on my iPhone and iPad. And by fine I mean it's identical to icloud.com/mail.

Outlook and iCloud won't sync since Windows 8.1 upgrade

So I've finally figured out my problem, but have no solution. The problem is that ever since I upgraded to Windows 8.1, Outlook "forgets" that the iCloud add-in is enabled. Every time I start Outlook, I have to manually go into options and re-enable the add-in. After that, syncing calendars and contacts to iCloud and my iPhone works just fine. In order to fix this, I figured out that I can set Outlook to run as an administrator. Works perfectly, as in now having the add-in enabled automatically. I thought this was the end of my troubles, but now Outlook no longer syncs with iCloud. Tried everything, and it just won't.I read on another thread that Outlook won't sync when you run it as an administrator. And sure enough, switching back to NOT running it as an administrator fixed the problem, in that it now syncs again. However, I'm stuck with re-enabling the add-in every time I start Outlook. Is there no other way to do this?

I don't use playlists. Maybe as a workaround you could try music software other than Windows Media Player, like Media Monkey
http://www.mediamonkey.com/
And see if you have better luck.
The free version of Mediamonkey should do playlists for you; what you get with the Gold (paid) version, mostly, is an mp3 ripper, but you can also install an mp3 ripper without buying it.

Outlook and icloud contacts and mail sync OK but calendar will not. Why?

I have Outlook 2010 on a Win 7 PC. iCloud syncs Mail and Contacts with my iP4 and Outlook without any problems but Outlook Calendar will not. iCloud set up procedure worked fine with Contacts and Mail. But when setup is run for Calendar, a message pop up says that iCloud Mail must be "enabled" in Outlook before Calendar can be synced.
iCloud Mail has been setup on iP4 and in Outlook. I can send and receive test messages to "me.com" from the iP but can't send test messages from the "me.com" account setup in Outlook. When I try to send a test message from Outlook mail account setup a dialog box asks for my "me.com" password which I enter but then asks me again and again until I finally give up. So, I think I've set it up but clearly, it's not been "enabled" to allow syncing with Calendar even though Contacts and Mail seems to work. BTW, Outlook navigation pane (left side) shows an iCloud folder in both Contacts and Mail but NOT in Calendar. Which shows, I think, that Calendar has indeed not been enabled.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.

Sync system and icloud keychains

Hi,
I had to reset the network settings on my iPhone 5 and then I noticed it had deleted all my wifi passwords from iCloud Keychain.
Accessing the Keychain app on my Mac, I can see that all the passwords are still in my "system keychain", however, I cannot copy them to the "iCloud keychain".
Is there any way to copy or sync the "Airport network passwords" from the system keychain into the iCloud keychain?
Thanks

Didn't it keep syncing with both iTunes and iCloud even after installing iTunes 11? (PC or Mac?)
Ever since iCloud came out in 2011 I've had a configuration where I sync some calendars with iCloud and one with Outlook via iTunes. Until today I didn't even realize they had removed the option from iTunes after 10.7 because I think it kept working even after the upgrade. (I guess the new UI wouldn't let me select that option, but since I already had it configured, I think it kept working that way.)
However, today I cycled my iCloud calendars off and then back on again to solve a different problem and then I was unable to turn on syncing with Outlook again. I stumbled across this article and it all came together: "iTunes 10.7 or earlier will allow you to enable iTunes sync for Calendars even if you are already using iCloud Calendar on your computer."
Since I think it was working even under iTunes 11, I'm considering restoring from a backup from a couple of days ago to see if that will restore the configuration I had. But you're making me wonder if that will work.

I synced Outlook with iCloud, now I can't find my saved emails.

I purchased a new iPhone and synced it with iCloud as well as my PC and all Outlook data. I had old email saved in
folders, now the folders are all empty and I can't find any of the email that I had needed to keep.

Sync outlook with icloud

Recurring tasks deleted when syncing outlook with iCloud

I have recently decided to take advantage of the 2 way sing via iCloud to get in sync my iPhone 4 with my 3 PCs running outlook (win 7).
one big issues here: when I click on an occurrence of a recurring task on the outlook iCloud calendar, the whole recurring task is deleted, with no wornings and no option to just delete the selected occurrence. This does not occurr when the task is in the outlook calendar not marked "iCloud", nor when I go on the cloud and edit it within iCloud.
Does anyone have the same problem?
Any suggestion to solve this?

Hi Paula,
You can try restoring the iPhone from backup, if iTunes has an iPhone backup that is dated before the events were deleted. This article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766 provides more information about iPhone backups.
After restoring the iPhone from backup, create one calendar event in Outlook and Reset the Sync History in iTunes preferences. Then sync the iPhone and you will see an option to Merge or replace data, choosing merge will combine data on the devices.
This article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1692 will provide more information about Resetting the Sync History.

Syncing Outlook to iCloud error message

I had to uninstall icloud and reinstall it. When I check the box in the iCloud control panel to set up Outlook 2010, I get a message that says iCloud was not installed properly and to go to the pc control panel and repair iCloud. I've done that 6 times and still get this error:
Can anyone help? Thank you so much!
N

I finally found the fix for the above. Make sure that the compatibility box is unchecked in properties for icloud. I had checked it based on some suggestions for getting photostream to work. That's what started my issues with the Outlook errors. Unchecked the box and iCloud set up in Outlook perfectly!
So be very careful when selecting the compatibility mode.

Windows 8 mail app, has my icloud account on but none of my icloud contacts depsite merging outlook and icloud on the icloud control panel... Help?? :)

windows 8 mail app, has my icloud email accounton it, but none of my icloud contacts depite the fact that i have merged outllok and icloud on the icloud control panel

What you have experienced, though annoying, doesn't necessarily mean someone has hacked your account, though if you were finding that you were blocked because the sending limit had been reached that might indicate that you had been hacked.
What can happen is that when people receive emails which appear to come from their own address but they haven't sent they naturally tend to be concerned: however it's most unlikely that anyone has hacked their account, they've just been targeted by one of two common spammers' techniques: both arise because it's all too easy to forge the 'from' address on messages to be something other than the real one.
There are two methods. One is that the sender has forged the 'from' address to be the same as the 'to' address (so other people will see it coming from themselves, not you), presumably in the hope of confusing spam filters. It's harmless, if extremely annoying. Delete it (never ever answer spam or try to unsubscribe from it), and you don't need to be worried about it.
The other problem is that a spammer is forging your address as the 'from' address on a whole batch of messages. The first thing you hear about this is when you start getting bounce messages because the spam has been sent to non-existent addresses and is being bounced to you. There's no point at all in responding to it. It's infuriating but normally stops after a bit as they move on to another forged address.
There isn't really anything you can do about it: closing the account isn't really worth the hassle unless you are totally swamped, because you will have to tell everyone your new address. Apple can't really do any more than they already are about spam. However changing your password on general principles is a good idea.

Outlook and iCloud Calendar Syncing

My workplace uses an outlook exchange based email and calendar service, and i have to use this to manage my meetings and whatnot. Is there some way I can sync this with my icloud calendar in order to share it with other icloud users?
3rd Gen iPad, iOS 5.1
Thanks

Hi - I had a look at the article, but that just says that they are not able to work together or sync.
Are there any third party solutions to this?
I just want to be able to see the tasks that I have in my Exchange account sync with Iphone (which is fine), but then also sync with iCloud.com (which I cant do - iCloud cannot see any Exchange related data I think).
Any work arounds?
Thanks
Neil

Syncing Comcast Outlook and iCloud

I need to sync my Comcast Outlook Contacts onto my iCloud on my new laptop. First, how do I configure my Comcast Outlook onto the new laptop? Second, does the syncing happen automatically?

Correction to that - if I add something to iCal on my desktop, it does (eventually!) show up on Outlook. But not if I add it to my phone or icloud.com.
So Outlook will go outwards, to phone but nowhere else.
And will accept inwards from desktop, but nowhere else.
Completely illogical!
