Good morning, As usual, you guys are my 'go to' after spending an hour surfing for an answer. I have macbook os x 10.7.5 with office for mac 2011 v. 14.4.7 and iphone 5c v 8.1.2. Also itunes v. 12.0.1.26 I need to sync the calendar on my iphone to the outlook calendar. I can not find out how to do this.

In searching on line I read to go through itunes and click on the devince then on info. There is no 'info' for this device. Somehow, outlook lost all my data and I am trying to retrieve what I can. I reset outlook and made a new identity some months ago w/your help. However, I never got my calendar or any of my files under the left hand window showing all saved email info. (I really hate that).

However, I want to retrieve what I can and am so frustrated in thinking I found a solution on line only to find that the instructions given don't work ie, there is no 'info' tab for the itunes device. I have read that I can download a sync program but it requires maverick; I've read a lot of negative comments about maverick and am worried about downloading it. Can you pls give me a fix that I can use to get the iphone calendar data onto the outlook calendar? Pls give step by step instructions as I am pretty tech challenged. Thank you so much, Rita. Bob, thank you so much for not giving up on me. The first link you offered showed me where the ipone icon was (I didn't recognize it when I opened itunes and could NOT find the info tab).

Seeing the pictures took me to the places I needed to go. It is just amazing to me how knowing which button to click can save sooooo much time.

I have been trying to sync my calendars for weeks. Occasionally surfing for info whenever I was on line. I'm coming here b/f I waste so much of my time in the future! Pdf xodo. Thanks again, Rita.

Facebook Twitter Google+ LinkedIn Lots of users observe sync issues between Outlook 2011 for Mac and Exchange Server versions including both Exchange 2007/2010 and 2003. The issues include mails not sync properly, delayed in message delivery and intermittent revert back of message from Exchange Server, etc.The main issue is communication hassles between mail client and mail server. The Microsoft Office has not disclosed any information on this topic, but Exchange 2000 and 2003 are discussed in relation to mail store parsing. To know why this issue occurs in Outlook 2011 with Exchange 2010 read this following segment, some workarounds are suggested for users. Step 1: Keep Folders, Item Count Below 5000 The main reason behind the issue seems to be a large number of items stored in mail folders. Keeping the size of the Inbox and Sent items folders in mailbox approximately up to 5000 or above leads to this type of issues. Although, there is no size limitation Mac Outlook but apparently reducing the size of mailbox leads to improve performance and minimize downtime issues.

Therefore, always keep the size of mail items under 5000 and split the mails year wise or date wise etc. The most preferred method is to move the items within Outlook either by date or whatever filters you like.Using webmail email folders can be easily moved or created, as it moves the items almost convenient way. Tip#1: Always number your folders to sort them flawlessly; Folders saved in alphabetical order aren’t sorted alphabetically. Therefore, save folder saved in January month in ’01-Jan-Inbox-2012’ order to put it before February. Tip#2: Do not attempt to move a bunch of emails at a time. If you try to do so it might take plenty of time to complete the process. Or if you try to accomplish more than one task at time Outlook might be crashed or faces hanging issues.
