Unlike Entourage, Outlook doesn’t offer an option for syncing calendar events (you can sync contacts, however). But let’s both take a couple of deep breaths and proceed. Because that’s exactly the kind of reaction I have to Outlook’s terrible syncing support.
It’s at times like these that I wish my response was accompanied by an animated GIF of me banging my head against the desk. Is there a way to get my events out of Outlook’s calendar and into iCal? So I decided to try using Mail/Address Book/iCal only to find that I cannot export my data from Outlook in any format other than. Initially I thought that continuing to use Outlook would be the way to go, so I installed Outlook 2011 for the Mac.
I recently switched from PC to Mac but have issues getting mail, calendars, and contacts transferred. Reader Simon White has found himself sucked into the black hole that can be Outlook 2011.
