Q: % complete can not be set on tasks (Outlook 2007 / Windows 10 / iCloud)

http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/profile/ccfaa34c-dd10-4b34-ad4d-53a1f94dd616

I am running Outlook 2007 on the Windows PC platform. My account is set up to sync with iCloud. I also have an iPad Air 2 set up to sync with iCloud.

After upgrading Windows to ver. 10, I can not adjust the % complete of my tasks (reminders, as Apple would call it). Outlook pops up with "Unknown error" message box.

(If I remove the iCloud sync, it will work, also in Win7 it worked etc.)

Any ideas? (I have already tried to install iCloud over again - running latest version, 5.1)

Could it be that this is an iCloud / Win10 compatibility issue?

iPad Air 2, iOS 9.2.1

Hello there oblund,

It sounds to me like your Outlook will update your tasks correctly when you do not have iCloud enabled but then goes awry when you enable iCloud. I would use the "Calendar, Contacts and Reminders" section of the following article to help you get that troubleshot:

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities, all the best!

I can confirm that I performed the testing mentioned above, and that the problem remains the same after.
This did not help.

If you have completed the troubleshooting from the article here, then the issue does not seem to be with the iCloud for Windows side of the equation. Due to the nature of your issue or question you may find more information by using another one of Apple's support resources - https://getsupport.apple.com/GetproductgroupList.action.
