Synching Mac Outlook 2011 Calendar and Contacts

I recently 1) moved from a PC to a Mac Book, 2) installed Outlook 2011 (as part of Office for Mac) and 3) imported my PC .pst file into Outlook to get my calendar, contacts and emails. While this worked, I have a huge problem in that I can not find a way to synch my Outlook for Mac Calendar and Contacts with my Macbook, iphone or ipad. Is there anyone else that has this problem or a solution???

I have the same issue. I have rebuilt the identity identity in Outlook 2011 and at least got a ONE TIME sync between Outlook and iCal but Itunes and Outlook 2011 for Mac will not sync.

Problem syncing my IPhone 5S to Mac Outlook 2011 calendars and contacts

I have an IPhone 5S running on OS7. While I have read many having same problems, I am still at a lost as to how to sync with Outlook 2011 on my Mac. Previously there was a tab beside summary on ITunes that I could specify my sync preferences. Now, no such tab..
Could someone guide me through the process so that I can again sync my Phone with my Calendars and Contacts on the Mac.
Another issues is that I cant seem to sync the same Calendars and Contacts to ICal and Contacts for Mac.
Thank you

Hi Wogified!,
I have an article for you that may help you understand why this message is popping up:
iTunes 11 for Mac: Syncing overview
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12111
You can sync iPod touch, iPhone, and iPad with only one iTunes library at a time. You can sync other iPod models (besides iPod touch) with multiple iTunes libraries by choosing manual syncing.

Can't sync Outlook 2011 calendar and contacts to IPhone

I have a user that just recieved a new Mac book air. She is using Outlook 2011 when she tries to sync her calendar and contact to her IPhone though iTunes. The sync gets stuck at syncing the calendar? I ran and installed all the latest updates for outlook and it looks like ical and outlook are talking to each other. But it never gets to her phone.

I have the same issue. I have rebuilt the identity identity in Outlook 2011 and at least got a ONE TIME sync between Outlook and iCal but Itunes and Outlook 2011 for Mac will not sync.

Better question: Has ANYONE been able to synch an Outlook 2010 calendar and contacts through iCloud?

So far, all I've seen is problems with synching a PC to iCloud. There's lots of articles on how nice iCloud is, but I doubt that the authors have even tried to synch a PC to iClould. Doesn't appear anyone else has either since there's no Youtube How To's about the subject either.

There are a half a dozen or more altenatives, especially towards the last quarter of this thread

IMac i7, late 2013: Microsoft Outlook email, calendar, and contacts

Will I be able to open and read my Microsoft Outlook email, calendar, and contacts when imported to my late 2013 iMac and Mavericks OS X?

Thanks LowLuster.
I do not want to purchase any additional Office software for the iMac if I don't have to. I have been a Microsoft/Office/Outlook user for many years now, so I have bunches and bunches of email, calendar, and contact info that I would still like to access and read, use, update.
I would like to know if the Microsoft Outlook data (email .pst, calendar and contact) info once imported to the iMac will be accessible, readable, usable, updatable. I need my email, calendar, and contacts.
I have already spent quite a bit of money on the iMac, and didn't plan on buying Office/Outlook for the Mac.

I use an iPhone 5, and want to sync my phone calendar and contacts with Outlook 7 calendar and contacts; two problems--I now get dozens of new calendars every time, and my outlook calendar will not sync at all.; meaning that date entries on Outlook do not come across ot iPhone.

It is unusual for the calendar to sync and not the contacts in Outlook. I've worked with Outlook for years. You didn't answer what computer OS you are using. If it is Windows, have you tried to reset the sync history in iTunes? Do that by opening iTunes, go to Edit>Preferences>Devices and click on reset sync history. If you have done this and it doesn't help, then we can try and run scanpst.exe on your Outlook file and see if there are any errors. Search your computer for that file, however it normally resides in one of the Microsoft Office folders in the folder Program files. After that, you can see if it will sync.

Have tried to install icloud 4.0 for windows and again it does not allow syncing with outlook 2013 calendar and contact using windows 8.1 and IOS 8.02 (unexpected error)? I thought itunes 12.0 and icloud 4.0 would solve issue but still same result.

Having same issues. had been syncing every few days with outlook 2007 contacts and calendar but since updated to 4.0.2 and latest itunes I get an error that it is unable to sync. I can't seem to find any solution.

Can I synch my Outlook for Mac 2011 calendars and contacts with my iPhone calendars and contacts?

I have Outlook for Mac 2011 and also use OSx Mountain Lion on my iMac. I want to synch my Calendar and Contacts from Outlook with my iOS devices (iPhone 5 and iPad). How can I do this so I don't have two calendars and two contacts that don't sync with each other?

if you don't have a online account that outlook is syncing the calendar with you can't sync it with anything else.
Just because you enter a appointment, or something, in the outlook calendar that does not auto sync it with other devices unless you have it setup to sync the local, on computer, calendar with a online account of some type. That could be outlook.com or office365 or google or even apple icloud. Once you setup a online account of some type to sync the local calendar with then you can sync that account calendar with orher devices.
This is what the other poster was trying to say but did not fully explain with the mention of icloud.

I have Mountain Lion (10x) not Lion. When I go to Sync Services in the Outlook preferences - there is no Calender there to link to. Is this because MS no longer supports Mountain Lion? Is there any other way to sync to iCal?

Mac outlook 2011 not display "Contact and Recent addresses"

I just installed Mac outlook 2011 in my new 2014 Macbook Pro OSX 10.9.4
When I type email address to the bar it does not display "Contact and Recent addresses" to list all the typed email address. Only if I press "tab" button, it will finish the rest of the address. The point is I cannot choose the address
from a list of same name persons.
However, it works well in my old Mac Book pro. OSX 10.9.3
Thanks.

HT201342 I cant sync my Mac Outlook 2011 Calendar with my iPhone 5. Please help!

I have a MacProBook running OS X, I use MS Office and since I "accepted" .me email with iCloud my Outlook 2011 calendars won't sync using iTunes into my iPhone 5.
I have also lost a whole year of Outlook Calendars, and I desperately need them! I've tried the MS Identities etc. to no avail.
Can someone be so kind and help me please?
Is there a new version of iCloud for Mac?
Thanks so much!

Contacts (the app) supports Dav, it has to because iCloud Contacts are Dav. Just add your CardDav account to your Mac in System Preferences>Internet Accounts and select Contacts.
FYI
iCloud Calendars are CalDav, iCloud Contacts are CardDav, and the mail is Imap.

Hoping for some help with a very frustrating issue!
I have been syncing calendar and contacts on my iPhone 5 and Outlook 2007 using iCloud 2.1.3 (my PC is running Vista). All was well until the events I entered on the phone were showing up in Outlook, but not the other way around. I’ve tried the usual recommended steps: deselecting calendar and contacts in the iCloud control panel and then re-selecting, signing out of the panel and back in, and repairing the Outlook installation in control panel. I even uninstalled iCloud on the PC and downloaded it again (same version).
The furthest I’ve gotten is step 2 (and once, step 3) of 7 while performing “Outlook Setup For iCloud.” At that point I get, “Your setup couldn’t be started because of an unexpected error.” After the first attempt at all this, all my calendar events disappeared from Outlook, although they are still in iCloud calendar and on my phone.
Sound familiar? Any ideas on how to solve this iCloud/Outlook issue? Thanks much in advance!

Since upgrading iPhone 4S to OIS 7 my outlook 2010 calendar and contacts will not sync. Anyone have a solution?

Everything was fine with Outlook 2010 on my iPhone 4S. Now with IOS 7 my calendar and contacts no longer sync. I have read so many comments online but no one has had the perfect solution. I feel as if I have tried everything. I have even reset my software and phone. Still nothing. Is this feature no longer available or are there new requirements to make it work? I am so unhappy!!!

Hello there janis143,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like after the recent iOS update, your Outlook content is no longer syncing properly to your phone.
I found this article named:

You don't, instead you subscribe to the iCloud calendar which is competely independent of Outlooks local calendar.

Problem syncing Iphone 4 with Outlook 2010 Calendar and Contacts

I am running Windows 7 with Office 2010 including Outlook 2010.
When I received my Iphone 4 three weeks ago, syncing with Contacts and Calendars worked fine.
After having updated OS on the phone and Itunes on the computer, I get the following error message:
"Itunes kunne ikke indlæse dataklasseoplysninger fra Synkroniseringstjenester. Opret forbindelse igen eller prøv senere"
The syncing of music and apps work perfectly.
PLEASE HELP

Still no help, no sulution to Apple iPhone sync problems with Calendar...? I wish someone from Apple, or someone with specific knowledge could help! Windows XP Professional, Outlook 2003 to iPhone 4S (2012) does not communicate any Calendar entries between the two machines.
Strange thing is that it worked when iPhone was newly purchased for about a month, then stopped??
Even stranger is that Contacts get synced just fine between the two machines?
Anyone who could help, please post your comments in Apple Support Discussions

Cant Sync Mac Desktop Software with Mac Outlook 2011

Hi,
I cant Sync Mac Desktop Software with Mac Outlook 2011, Calendar and Contacts etc.
The sync button is not highlighted on the BB Mac Desktop Software therefore it can't be clicked.
I have turned on sync in Outlook in Preferences under Sync Services.
In the BB Deskstop Software, when i click on the Calendar function, it says "There are no writable Calendars available for syncing on this computer. The Contacts section says "sync services is currently turned off on this Mac"
I have updated both the Deskstop software and Mac Outlook to the latest updates.
Regards.

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
First off, you must have installed one of the compatible Desktop Organizer apps:
KB12268Applications supported by BlackBerry Desktop Software for Windows for synchronization
Attempting to use anything NOT on that list will, of course, fail.
Secondly, you must have not have Outlook installed as "Click To Run":
KB24040 Support for Microsoft Office 2010 Click-to-Run installation
If you have it installed in that manner, you must correct that.
I have no idea how your prior machine was configured, but I know 100% that you can synchronize to a Win7X64 Laptop with Outlook 2010...I do it all the time.
Good luck!
