TS3999 cannot setup icloud with outlook

When I try to set Outlook Calender I get error message about unexpected error.  What can I do to correct?

Hi,

Re: Your setup couldn't be started because of an unexpected error.in response to Lumbo
I found a fix that worked :
https://discussions.apple.com/message/16542918#16542918
I backed-up up my contacts and calendar from my personal folder file and deleted everything.  At the end, everything is downloaded back to the Outlook (2007 in the case) on my laptop just as if it was a new ipad /iphone.
I hope that is the end of it ...
So, I had exactly the same problem. I was told that as I use a Windows pc that the windows updates may have caused a conflict. I have Office 365
- I backed up my outlook (.pst) file
- Once backed up I removed all my contacts.
- I closed Outlook and opened iCloud Control Panel.
- I ticked 'Contacts, Calendars & Tasks' and clicked on 'apply'
- presto!! Full recovery of everything that was in the cloud.
Only issue is that I have 2 iCloud Calendars, but that's the least of my worries - at least all my appointments are there ... I'll cope!

  • ICloud with Outlook problems

    I have upgraded to an iPhone and now want to use iCloud with Outlook.
    I seem to remember having to remove this in the past also I have alternative profiles in Outlook.
    Control Panel for iCloud is not creating an additional folder in Outlook.
    Any thoughts?

    You need to leave more information like what is the ios5 device. I following instructions accidently set up two iclouds and then I couldn't get the contacts in. My mobileme email isn't going to work anymore because I set up an icloud using my store apple ID. Apparently the term apple ID can refer to any apple product ID that you make up not the one you use in the store. So you need to leave more infor on what is your problem to figure out how to help.

  • HT1349 How do I find where my multiple copies of Outlook are? (It said  Multiple Outlook versions installed. You can't use iCloud when multiple versions of Outlook are installed.  To use iCloud with outlook, uninstall one version.")

    I have just started with iCloud, and run into a problem from my PC.
    It says: "
    Multiple Outlook versions installed.
    You can't use iCloud when multiple versions of Outlook are
    installed.  To use iCloud with outlook, uninstall one version.
    I have searched and found two versions of Outlook 2013 and 2015  (one of which was inactive, but I have removed it), and one of outlook.pst, which I have removed.
    Where do I go from here?

    That's a Windows/Office problem. You should ask in the Microsoft support forums.

    Hi nprguy,
    It sounds like an earlier version of the BlackBerry® Desktop Software installed on your PC may be conflicting with this installation. 
    I would advise uninstalling both versions of the BlackBerry Desktop Software then reinstalling the latest version.
    The following KB articles should provide more information on the issue.
    "The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable" when uninstalling BlackBerry Desktop Manager www.blackberry.com/btsc/KB10220
    "Error 1316" InstallShield error is encountered when uninstalling or upgrading the BlackBerry Desktop Software
    www.blackberry.com/btsc/KB04272
    Thanks.

  • I have downloaded the latest version of icloud control panel to a PC with Windows 7. My "master" data is always on my PC. With other synch software I always select "One Way Outlook to Device". I synched icloud with Outlook and it has trashed my Outlook

    I have downloaded the latest version of icloud control panel to a PC with Windows 7. My "master" data is always on my PC. With other synch software I always select "One Way Outlook to Device". I synched icloud with Outlook and it has trashed my Outlook with duplicate contacts. Is there a solution. Is there selective synchronisation available?

    Make sure you don't have any notes that have no content or subject or this can prevent syncing with Outlook.  If you do, delete them.
    If you don't, try unchecking "Mail,Contacts,Calendars & Tasks with Outlook" on the iCloud control panel for Windows, choose Delete at the prompt (the data will still be in iCloud), restart your PC, then go back and check this setting again.  (Your iCloud data will reappear in Outlook after a brief delay as it redownloads.)
    Then create a new note on one of your iOS devices and see if it appears in the Notes folder in Outlook mail after a few minutes.

    Use Windows System Restore.
    Then choose where you want your stuff, locally in Outlook or online in iCloud.

    Since this is a MacBook Pro Hardware forum, you would get a better answer in the iCloud forum. 

  • HT4864 I'm using Comcast email, how do I setup iCloud with Comcast? I have an iPhone and iPad 2, my home computer is using Windows XP, so I guess I'm out of luck using iCloud with XP.

    I'm using Comcast email, how do I setup iCloud with Comcast? I have an iPhone and iPad 2, my home computer is using Windows XP, so I guess I'm out of luck using iCloud with XP.

    Forwarding email from comcast to icloud is different than icloud managing comcast email.  One disadvantage of forwarding is that when you respond to an email originally sent to the comcast address and forwarded to icloud, your reply will have the icloud address as the source, not your comcast.  That is a problem for many users.
    If your comcast account is IMAP, then there's no reason to forward.  Just define two accounts in your mail app, one for comcast and one for icloud.  Once done, you don't have to worry about dealing with two services, it's all done in a unified way.
    And.... you are not talking to Apple here, we're just users like you.  Apple doesn't participate in these forums.

  • I just upgraded to iOS7 and started using icloud with Outlook 2010. My calendar reminders are only randomly showing up which is very frustrating. They show up on my phone however. Any suggestions on a fix?

    I just upgraded to iOS7 and started using icloud with Outlook 2010. I dealt with switching over to only using icloud for my calendar, but now my calendar reminders are only randomly popping up which is very frustrating. They show up on my phone however. And under my calendar on my main page it doesn't show any appointments coming up. Any suggestions on a fix?

    Hey Csound1,
    Looks like we found a solution, it's Mickey Mouse but it works.  After talking to two Apple Senior Advisors, this is the fix they came up with:
    The first advisor after exploring it for awhile, came to the conclusion the way to get my calendars back local On my Mac with the alerts as I had then was to import the saved .ics files with my my 'dangerous email alerts' being removed then me manually re-adding them.   I said that was a no go.
    The second advisor, after speaking with me for awhile and trying a few things that we'd tried before said he'd do some work on his end and call me back.  A couple of hours later he phoned back with a fix that I guess will have to do, his solution:
    I had to go into Calendar-preferencs-accounts and create a Gmail calendar, quit and restart Calendar, I created a calendar in the gMail account.  Then I was given the option  in Calendar under File-New Calendar to create On my Mac local calendars.  Next was to create local calendars with the same names as my iCloud calendars.  Now I had to un-check all calendars but one, put Calendar in month view, command-click all the events for the given calendar and drag them to the new local calendar of the same name.  I then had to repeat this for each of the calendars and for all 12 months of the year. 
    I'm not done yet but it seems to be working.  As I said Mickey Mouse but doing the job.  It seems creating another online calendar account was the only way to get the local On my Mac option, active again.  What a pain in the a** this has been, I will repeat it again
    iCloud is EVIL.

  • Using Icloud with Outlook 2007 and windows 7, I cannot get my calendar to list the scheduled appointments as it used to do before I cloud.  The to do bar just shows no upcoming appointments when my calendar is filled with them.  How do I fix this

    Since using ICloud with Office 2007 and Windows 7, the to-do-list will not show any appointments.  If has the notation that no appointments are available?  My calendar is full of appointments.  How do I correct this?

    I don't have a password on my phone. After attaching the phone to the Windows 7 computer, my DCIM folder is always empty. Here's the solution:  While the phone is plugged in to the computer, pick it up and select the Photos application. A dialog box appears and asks if you trust this computer. Obviously, select the "Trust" option. Then the photos will download. If you have a password on your phone, I'm guessing you have to enter it before you open the photo application.

  • ICloud with Outlook 2013 64bit and Windows 8.1

    Hello,
    I have a problem setting up the sync with iCloud and Outlook 2013 64bit on my new Windows 8.1 Thinkpad.
    On my old Wind 7 PC and the same software (Office 2013 64bit) I get it worked, but not on the new one.
    Installing is everything fine but the it says "Die Konfiguration kann nicht fortgesetzt werden, da Outlook ohne Standardprofil eingerichtet wurde..." Translatet it means something like "Setup can not continue becuase outlook isnt configured to have a defualt profile".
    I've searched nearly the whole internet but without a solution. Can anyon

    Have you checked to see if you have a default profile designated for Outlook?  You can set it as described at the bottom of this article: http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/outlook-help/turn-on-or-off-profile-prompt-HA1 02749211.aspx.

  • My icloud Contacts do not match my address book all contacts .. I an trying to synchronize icloud with outlook .. it does not appear to synchronize current address book with icloud

    I setup icloud to sychronize with outlook ... I have been sychronizing with gmail contacts so the 2 do not match.
    I would like to have one contacts file that synchronizes with outlook. How do I make the contacts file on my iphone synchronize with the icloud then with outlook?
    Ernie

    Nuts isn't it. This seems to have been an issue snce dAY 1.  iT FROSTS ME THAT THERE IS NO SIMPLE QUICK WAY TO UPDATE OR CORRECT the data in both programs simultaneously.. Thats why i decided to just put everytning into the i cloud address brook, and let the one other sit and rot.
    then i got smart and said, why don't I delete the outlookaddress book files. and save on confusion.
    result - both addresses books  and their contents became invisible to outlook.!!!!!! and I can find no way to correct this...to go back to the imperfect world that was.
    I did get the outlook contact s back from an archive - but any thing from icloud has become inaccessible from outlook.  (fortunately i can get the vcard infformation directly from icloud. but I can't access it from outlook mail.... means no replying, forwarding etc - and a time swallowing nuisance..
    aNYONE WILLING TO DUMP SEWAGE ON MICROSOFT AND aPPLE... UNCOOPERATIVE TWITS. -  boh should be smacked.

  • I am having problems setting up iCloud with Outlook 2007.

    I was able to setup the email with Outlook, but every time I try to setup the contacts.  I get the following error:
    your setup could not be started because of unexpected error
    This error does not occur immediately, but occurs after several steps of downloading and uploading. 
    If I hit the report button, it hangs. So I hit cancel after that in my retries.  I am on Windows 2007 (32-bit). 

    You need to leave more information like what is the ios5 device. I following instructions accidently set up two iclouds and then I couldn't get the contacts in.
