Syncing Iphone with outlook 2010?

[mcniglet]

Can it be done? keeps telling me that outlook is not default mail program, but it is.

Win7 RC + Office 2010 + iPhone 3Gs = FUBAR. I too get same error message(s), also get 'sync in progress' ad infinitum.

SOLUTION!! Virtual PC! I admit its the king of kludge solutions, but I did the following:
- Install older version of Microsoft OFFICE on Virtual PC
- install 'integration features'
- copy PST file from share to C drive on Virtual PC
- copy pictures etc to C Drive on virtual PC
- install iTunes on Virtual PC
- enable integraton features on Virtual PC
- click the "USB" dropdown on the Upper Left of Virtual PC and dedicate the iPhone to Virtual PC, and iPhone will now sync.

FWIW,
Frustrated bleeding edge end-user

Hello,

I have the same pb.
Win7 Ultimate x64 -> Itunes 9.02.25 64bits -> Outlook 2010
Itunes telling me that outlook is not default mail program !!

Any solution ?

 

[Eric Engler]

Same problem here too.

I need a solution asap.

Apple has to fix their software.

You could sync your email to google, and then from google to your iphone. Or you can get a hosted Exchange service and sync directly to the iphone.

Since Office 2010 is still not in full-release you'll find many add-ons and external apps that used to work in 2000/2003/2007 will not yet work in 2010. I ran into that with an app I use to synch my calendar and contacts to Google to synch to my Droid, which reminds me, I need to see if it's been updated (which I doubt)...

I've been having the same problem, running 32 bit Office 2010, iTunes will not pick it up, tried uninstalling and reinstalling everything, made sure the addin is checked in Outlook, even tried running a scanpst.exe but that file seems not to be included with Outlook 2010. Any help would be apreciated.

As I mentioned above, many add-ins do not support Office 2010 yet as it has not been officially released. Wait until it's released and suddenly EVERYTHING will support it.

I have a Droid, Google's Calendar sync does not support Office 2010 yet, I'm using the RC at work for testing...

iTunes 9.2 was released on 6/17/2010 and it supports Office 2010 for syncing. I tested it with x64 version and it works.

Interesting, I'll check it out.

Glad to hear that. Was hoping Apple would be smart enough to do that now.

iTunes 9.2 and Office 2010 64-bit

iTunes 9.2 was released on 6/17/2010 and it supports Office 2010 for syncing. I tested it with x64 version and it works.

I just want to get this clear before I uninstall 32-bit Office 2010 and install the 64-bit version:

Are you syncing with the 64-bit version of Office 2010 or
the 32-bit version of Office 2010 installed 64-bit Windows 7?

I'm using the 64 bit version both for Office and Itunes.

I got the Product Download Key version of Home and Business 2010, to which I had to download from Microsoft. I assume it only lets you download the 32-bit version as I see no option for the 64-bit. Anyways when I load up iTunes it won't give me the option to sync anything to Outlook. There's no sign of it anywhere in the drop down boxes. I've tried uninstalling both and re-installing and still nothing.

Any ideas?

 

[Gelangweilt]

i have also the Product Key Download Version (32bit) on Windows Ultimate 64bit with iTunes 9.2 64bit.
iTunes will also not recognize Outlook and no sync with calanedar, contacts , notes or whatever is possible.
is there any way i can obtain a 64bit download version?

i wish i could return the Product key version and would gladly spend the extra $$$ to get the DVD with both versions on it....

Who is to blame?
Apple for not integration the 32bit office version (worked fine previously wiht office 2007)
MS for not making the 64bit version available as download version?


update:
installed the 64bit version (a bit difficult to find) but now it works.
you need to check the extended download options, then you can DL the full installers of 32 and 64bit office 2010 when you have the keycard version.
the klick & run installer doesn not seem to work with itunes.

 

[methodfilter]

Where did you find the 64 bit version? I only get the option to install the click to run version.

And you're confirming that the 64 bit version does show up in iTunes?

For the download I just went to Using The Product Key Card - Microsoft Office and then put in my key and logged in to my account and all it gave me the click to run installation and I dot see anything else. What should I do to get 64 bit? If this solves the issue I'm all for it.

 

[Gelangweilt]

yes the 64bit office install definetly works with itunes 9.2 (64bit)

chekc the webpage where you can download the small installer for klcik and run.
there should be a link to extended download options.
just click there.
then a small popup appears and lets you choose between full installers of 32bit and 64bit as well as the click and run.
it is there to download and it works

when you login into your account you see the details for your product keycard purchase.
there is a link to DOWNLOAD.
click there, you will get to a new page showing YOUR PRODUCT.
then click EXTENDED OPTIONS. this brings you to the popup that lets you select all versions of the installer.

i have some pics attached (in german, but you will get the idea)

Good luck!

Thanks so much I finally see the link! The issue is that it's my office PC i'm having the issues with so i'll have to give it a go on Monday.

But I definitely see it on the english download site, it says 'Advanced Options' and lets me choose 32, 64 or that awful crap click to run.

Thanks again! Hopefully it works!

Very odd the 32 bit wouldn't work but the 64 bit does. UNLESS the 32-bit does work its just the stupid 'click to run' version that doesn't. I'll have to do some playing around on Monday. I read elsewhere that the 64 bit version isn't compatible with various software so I wasn't sure if that might screw something up. Like AVG as it scans my Outlook emails, well it did, not sure if it does with 2010.

 

[Gelangweilt]

glad you could find it.
i am not sure if it is really 32bit or 64bit.
what i noticed is thet the click to run installation is installed on a virtual drive (has the letter Q on my PC)
i also noticed that i could not find outlook.exe on my PC when i had the click to run installation on my PC.
i think that is where the problem is. previously itunes 64bit also worked flawlessly on my 64bit Windows 7. so i guess since itunes can not locate outlook.exe it can not sync
i guess that a 32bit full install of office 2010 on windows 7 64bit would work as well with outlook, as the much needed outlook.exe will be there again.

no idea what this click to run really is. and what good it does..

 

[methodfilter]

All I read is that it install while you use it or some crap. No thanks!
