Hey there bgalivan,
Are you able to edit your contacts using iCloud.com? If so, are they then updated in Outlook?
"Turn iCloud Calendar, Contacts and Reminders off and back on
Make sure that the iCloud Outlook Add-in is on
The iCloud Outlook Add-in transfers your content between iCloud and Outlook. Follow these steps in Outlook 2010 and later to check and turn on the Add-in:
Have a good one!
If I update a contact on my iPhone, that update is reflected in Outlook. If I then open the contact in Outlook and try to change it, I get the message that I don't have permission to modify the contract. And so you know, I have an ongoing problem with my iCloud contacts not appearing in the TO field of outlook mail. They are not there. I have uninstalled and reinstalled icloud, repaired windows, and gone through every recommended "fix" I could find.
Its easier to point fingers at the "other guy." Microsoft says its Apple's problem, Apple says it's Microsoft's problem. Meanwhile, I spent probably 9-10 hours over the past month trying to repair windows, uninstall/reinstall iCloud and various combos of all the "suggestions" with nothing to show but frustration.
Has nothing to do with the problem. I can see the contacts in Outlook. If I try to edit the contact it says I dont have permission.

Furthermore 3rd party sync solutions are failing to insert any contacts updates into the icloud contacts, similar to your own product icloud for windows. Any chance you could escalate this further to apple engineers or something?
I have the exactly the same problem.
