I have iCloud setup within outlook. If I change a calendar event in oulook it is sending updates to invitees using my iCloud email address rather than my outlook work email address.

My outlook on my windows PC has mail setup already using my work email address. I have added iCloud now so my outlook calendar is always synced with my iphone. My iCloud username is my personal email address not my work email address. Problem is I just updated a meeting time in my calendar on outlook and it sent an update to my invitees using my personal email address regisetered with iCloud rather than my outlook work email address. I dont understand this as if I check my outlook sent items, I can clearly see that my updated meeting request was sent from my work email in outlook. Does iCloud automatically send updates to invitees using your iCloud username?

I have this working at my work with no issues, Ill explain below how to setup outlook so that any appts that you create will push to your icloud calendar. Let me tell you what Im using to make sure you have the same (or close setup).

Windows 7 Pro - 64 bit

MS Office 2010

iCloud for Windows

Once this is installed and turned on, you will have two calendars in your Outlook, one is the default outlook calendar, the other should be called iCloud. The thing you have to make sure is that the iCloud calendar is on the top. Right click the iCloud calendar and choose "Move Up". Do this until it is in the top most position. I would recommend Overlay Calendars so that you can see everything from one calendar view. You should also have an iCloud button in your Outlook toolbar (or check the addins to make sure this is present and on). Close outlook and make sure the process is not running, then open it again. Now when you make appts, the iCloud calendar should be showing on top and should push directly to your other devices.

Hope that helps.
