Migrated from MobileMe to iCloud. If I make a change to my contacts in iCloud or iPhone, it doesn't update in Outlook. Any way to make them stay sync'd? Hitting Refresh iCloud had no affect.
Outlook 2007 / Windows 7 user
Dell 720 XPS, Windows 7, Q6600 : 4 GB RAM : 8800GT SLI
I was having the same problem. I was not looking in the iClouds contact folder.
In Outlook I would always go to default contacts and it was empty (I have a fresh install of Outlook). I was frustrated because I was expecting the contacts to be updated with all my iCloud info. Nothing ever happened. I got to looking around and noticed on the left Outlook pane under Contacts header there was an iCloud bar that I had not noticed. It is under My Contacts. I expanded this bar and there they were, all my iCloud contacts organized just like I expected.
I did a test and updated an address on my iPhone 4S and within 15 seconds the Outlook version was updated.
The iCloud calendar was a similar "fix" for me.
So, when I first read your post I was experiencing the same thing as you and was dissappointed because there were no responses. Turns out it was working, I was just not looking in the right place.
Hope this helps you.
My contacts and calendar are there, they are just not updating since the original sync. I noticed a .me and iCloud now. My .me has my email in it and the iCloud is blank (under Mail Folders / All Mail Items).
*** UPDATE ***
I decided to unsync with outlook, deleted the .me and iCloud folders from outlook and resync'd. Now everything is updated and sync'ing.
Apple is so frustrating and the service is horrible. I'm just going to switch phones.
