Office 2011 for the Mac – Outlook auto-sync problems with Calendar and Contacts across multiple machines and phone using Gmail

20. September 2012 · Write a comment · Categories: Outlook for Mac · Tags: , , , , , , , ,
How can I constantly sync Outlook 2011 for Mac contacts and calendar between two Macs and my Motorola phone using Gmail?  I am one person and do not have Exchange Server.  My phone is my main device.  The MacBook and IMac are at different locations.  I need constant syncing everywhere.

I also find it interesting that Office 2011 is not a set category by Microsoft in the Version drop down box.  Jeez.

1.  Will the new Windows Phone by Lumia overcome this?
2.  I have an Outlook email account.  If I change exclusively to this, will it allow constant and immediate synchronization?  Or is the IMAP protocol always going to be the issue?
3.  Why isn't there an "Exchange Server" type of workaround for individuals via the cloud or locally stored??

Regarding Outlook Data File compatibility with Windows PST & MAC OLM

17. September 2012 · Write a comment · Categories: Outlook for Mac · Tags: , , , , , , , ,

I have been using an external hard drive to save my outlook data file .PST in windows OS, so when I'm using another pc/ notebook I could just connect my external HD and follow up with my emails. I recently got a mac & wondering how I can do the same (moving between WINDOWS & MAC), I've been trying to but seems it can't as outlook in Mac has different extension .OLM

 

Please advise.

 

Thanks,

Hi, 

I have created in Outgoing rule as - 
'archive sent items', 
when a message is sent, 
date sent is greater than 180 days old, 
move message to 
"archive sent items (on my mac). 
Do not apply other rules is checked and the rule is enabled. 
However, the rule is not working and is not showing when I click on the rules button. It is an outgoing rule and only POP rules are showing. 
Please help with a solution. 

Mahimm Gupta.
