TS3999 My Outlook Calender wont sync with iCloud/iPad/iPhone?

My Outlook Calender wont sync with iCloud/iPad/iPhone? despite doing everything as per the support page. I keep on clicking the Add in but it wont "take"?
It use to, but no matter what I try nothing works. Using Windows 7. HELP!

This step is not clear:
"Open a secure website to see if you can access ports 80 and 443. Outlook requires access to port 443 to push and fetch updates to and from the iCloud Contacts servers."
The link takes me to an Apple page but which has nothing to do with ports. And there is nothing to explain what it is I am looking for, how to look for it, and how to change it if needed.
Also, this step:
"Open the iCloud Control Panel and make sure that you're signed in to the same iCloud account that you're using on your other supported devices."
iCloud automatically set up a "[email protected]...." account for me so I see that one plus my original email used to open my Apple account. And the apple products show my settings under both identities.
Make sure the iCloud Outlook Add-in is active within Outlook
This add-in is disabled because it doesn't allow Outlook to function properly.
Thanks!

IPhone wont sync with iCloud???

Hi all....Can anyone help???
I have set up iCloud and it seems to work fine EXCEPT for the fact that I cannot get it Outlook to sync with my iphone? I am using Outlook 2010 Pro...and iphone 5s.
If I make a change on my phone calendar it does not sync the new event? If I make a change in Outlook on my PC, it does not sync to the phone.
Heres the twist....Changes, additions or deletion of CONTACTS either from my phone or my PC, work PERFECTLY.
I had the cloud page open in one window and outlook in another. I made a Contact change in outlook and watched the change take effect in the cloud within a few seconds. Also I made a change to CONTACTS on my phone and also within seconds the change happened in the cloud and in outlook just like it should....
ITS ONLY CALENDAR changes that dont work?
Can someone help?
Thanks

Hey there smginoz,
It sounds like your iCloud calendar is not syncing to Outlook and neither is your Outlook syncing to iCloud. I would use the Outlook troubleshooting from the following article to help you resolve the issue:
iCloud: Troubleshooting iCloud Calendar
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3999
Troubleshooting on Microsoft Windows (Microsoft Outlook)
If you're having trouble with iCloud Calendar on a PC (with Outlook 2007 or later), try each of these steps, testing after each to see if the issue is resolved.
Note: iCloud Control Panel does not support Outlook 2010 Personal Edition. When using iCloud Control Panel 2.0 and later, iCloud Calendar event descriptions in Outlook 2010 do not support text formatting (bold, italics, or underline), HTML, images, or attachments. The contextual menu (right-click) has also been disabled.
Verify that you are using a Windows configuration supported by iCloud.
Make sure that your computer is online. Attempt to view www.apple.com. If you can't connect to the Internet, your iCloud calendars and events will not update in Outlook. Learn about troubleshooting your Internet connection.
Open a secure website to test if ports 80 and 443 are accessible. Outlook requires port 443 access to iCloud to push and fetch updates to and from the iCloud Calendar servers.
Verify that your iCloud member name is entered into the iCloud Control Panel window. Learn about setting up iCloud on Windows.
Close and reopen the iCloud Control Panel.
Make sure that iCloud is not your default account in Outlook:
In Outlook 2013 and 2010, select File > Info > Account Settings > Data Files. If iCloud is listed as the default account in the Comments column, select a different account and click Set as Default.
In Outlook 2007, select File > Data File Management > Data Files. If iCloud is listed as the default account in the Comments column, select a different account and click Set as Default.
If you recently made changes in Outlook and they are not updating on your other devices or vice versa, click the Refresh button in Outlook.
If needed, there are additional steps to try within the article.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
Sterling

Iphone 5 wont sync with icloud so i only have information from May 2012 from manual back up rather than from icloud?

I had an iphone4 which i synced before i converted to the new iphone 5.
When the iphone 5 has switched over i only have information from may 2012 which is before i changed over to icloud and was my last manual back up.
How do i get the info from my icloud on to my new iphone 5?

the version im using is 10.7.5
im not sure what you mean by you second statement. when i open those application on my macbook its on my macbook but when i sign into icloud. i have those option selected.
maybe my problem is im using the wrong ID...... lol.
is there away you can delete or change icloud accounts/ ID's???

Okay, this is interesting, because I was under the impression that FOR IOS DEVICES, contacts are NOT included in a backup, since they are already on icloud (in the contact database). And since you erased the contacts, then they are gone for good. One recommendation I've read about is, assuming you have a computer like a Mac also connected to the same icloud account, you can get the contacts back from a backup of the computer, like Time Machine. However, I don't know where you'd look for that file or files (even though the contacts are stored centrally on icloud, I'm guessing they are also stored locally in a cache file).
I think another suggestion made here (IIRC) is to turn off syncing of contacts (on the device), then do a restore. Since there's no sync, icloud's empty contact database will not overwrite the local contacts on the deviced. Again, I may not be remembering correctly. Some of these older posts about this same problem were some time ago.
I'd welcome anyone who really knows the details on this to add to the discussion here. This is an issue faced by many posters.

Since I created an iCloud email account, nothing on my ipad2 syncs with iCloud on my PC and all of my prior information has disappeared from my gmail, notes, calendar, etc. Any ideas?

Why is it that since I created an iCloud email account (my default email client is gmail), nothing on my iPad2 syncs with iCloud on my PC? Also, all prior content in Notes, Contacts, Mail, Calendar, etc. has disappeared.

Okay, I see from the control panel for iCloud in Explorer that now I have to use Outlook as my mail client for Calendar, Mail and Notes. Why? Gmail is my client and everything used to work fine until I had to get that @icloud.com account.
Also, I see I have to use Explorer as my browser if I want to sync Bookmarks. What's wrong with Firefox?
Outlook is the only supported Mail/Contacts and Calendars client on a PC.
And once more, Gmail has no connection with iCloud, you can continu using Gmail on the web or in Mail
Why not say what you expect to happen and I'll tell you if it will.

Mail won't sync with icloud.

I have an iphone 4 32gb, Win 7 x64, itunes 11.02.26, ios 6.1.2, and Outlook 2010. Recently had to do a complete Windows reinstall from scratch, but everything was backed up and is up and running normally again.
The iTunes info tab for my iphone says that my contacts, calenders, tasks are being synced with my iphone over the air with icloud. The mail is not. Previously it was. The icloud control panel only says the 'contacts, calenders and tasks with outlook' being synced, but mail is not listed. Clicking on the message only unchecks the tickbox.
MS Outlook has my @me.com account installed and working and 3 other email accounts, and the icloud refresh button on the toolbar is working ok. The same mail accounts are installed on the iphone and work ok. My phone and Outlook can each access all my mail accounts seperately without a problem. At present I have left the mail tickbox unchecked on the itunes info page for my iphone. (I dont want to mess up the information on either unless I have to). There are no checkboxes for the contacts, calenders or tasks as they are using icloud. Under 'settings/general/icloud' on my iphone, Mail and calenders are both selected to ON.
When I try to log into icloud.com, I get a message that 'icloud encountered an error while trying to connect to the server', but the system status check shows no problem.
How do I get my mail to sync between outlook and icloud the same as calenders, contacts, tasks and bookmarks?

If I understand what you are saying, iCloud seems like its over-hyped and is pretty useless for Mail and Calendar. It makes no sense to me to have Calendar and Mail available on iCloud if it doesn't show the same Calendar and Mail that is on your iMac and iPad.
Yes, my Calendar syncs with Google as well as on the iPad and iMac. Why shouldn't it also sync with iCloud?
Because it's a Google Service not an iCloud service, you can still sync it to your Mac and your devices, just not using iCloud.

Photostream wont sync with camera roll in Iphone 5

Hi All,
Happy New Year....
My photo stream wont sync with camera roll in my Iphone 5.
Battery 90%
The photos are 1-7 days old .
Things already tried :
I have my wi-fi on in my phone, full battery charge.(my wife has a an IPAD 4th gen with different apple id/icloud id and her photostream syncs in the same wifi)
I have tried switching the photostream off/on in settings.
I have deleted the icloud account and reset it again.
I have gone to icloud.com and reset photostream.
I have switched off/on the iphone 5
Can anybody please suggest how to get photostream working
Moreover when i share a photo through photostream to my wife's IPAD 4th gen icloud id the message is received by her but NOT the photo.
If my wife shares a photo to my icloud id (Iphone 5) with her IPAD photostream , I receive both photo and message

I figured out something more :
1)When I create an apple id from my iphone 5 and use home wi-fi the photostream doesnt work
2)When I create my apple id from my ipad and and use the apple id in my iphone in my home wi-fi the photostream starts working strange
can anybody explain why when I create an apple id from my iphone 5 and use home wi-fi the photostream doesnt work

My computer is not syncing with iCloud but the iPhones are syncing with iCloud

Hello need help! My computer is not syncing with iCloud but the phones are?? Done everything that was suppose to do? It's saying that access to the account is not permitted?? Help e
rror message server does not recognize server name or pass words

Check the model number by holding down the option/alt key while selecting About this Mac under the Apple menu. Select System Information and it will tell you the model number. Compare it to:
Model Number - iMac
You can then check against the link mende1 provided.
If you then go with Niel's suggestion, you can check here.
Computer Compatibility - Lion
You also might want to check applications compatibility since neither lion or Mountain Lion support PowerPC applications.

Is there a way to move Messages and Local (not synced with iCloud) notes from old iPhone to new one ?

Is there a way to move Messages and Local (not synced with iCloud) notes from old iPhone to new one ?

Yes, it will. You cannot merge information on the phone. If you want the old messages, you will need to restore from a backup of the old phone, which will make the new phone look just like the old phone. If you want to save the messages from the new phone, you will not be able to get the messages from the old phone.

HT5824 Outlook Sync with Icloud

I can't get Outlook on my PC to sync with ICloud. It loads about 75% of my data and then says there's been a problem with DAV configuration. Advice?

Dear Chris
Just a quick question totally unrelated to the currend chat.!
In Your reply to Vangie on 8-2-10 you said that by using copy and paste directly from i tunes to usb the song information only would be copied and NOT the audiio... I have recently downloaded i tunes and used the method of copying and pasting directly fron my i tunes music to a usb. BOTH the song information and the audio were both transferred successfully to the usb as mpeg 4 files!. The usb plays beautifully on my computer and on my car stereo which has mp3 capability which obviously recognises mpeg 4 files (mpeg 4 same as mp4 i believe?).
Has i tunes been updated since your post on 8-2-10 enabling me to do a direct transfer from i tunes to usb?.
I could not reply to your original post as the reply option is not there.
Please let me have your comments.

ICal not syncing with iCloud or iPhone

Hi,
I just got a new iPhone today and I am having trouble syncing my iCal to it. Prior to this I did not have an iCloud. I created one on iCloud.com but everything there is blank. The iCal on my laptop is full, but I don't see an option in preferences to sync with iCloud, only something about MobileMe. I don't really understand what I'm suppose to do. I've looked through many different forums about this, but nobody seems to talk about my specific problem. Ideas?
Side question... where is Facetime on the iPhone? I thought it was included, but I can't find it and it's not avilable through the app store.
Thanks!

Greetings,
If you are running OS X 10.6 or earlier on your computer you will want to either:
A. Sync your calendar using the USB cable and NOT use iCloud calendars (as iCloud requires Lion (10.7): http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1296
B. Purchase and install Lion assuming your Mac meets the requirements: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4949
If you are running 10.7 on your Mac (Check by going to Apple > About this Mac), reply back and we can suggest how to get the calendars on iCloud.
To your side question:
While this isn't the iPhone forum, your profile says you are using an iPhone 3G. FaceTime for iOS is available on iPad 2, iPhone 4, iPhone 4 S and iPod touch (4th generation): http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4319
Hope that information sheds some light.
