Mavericks sync Outlook 2011

Engage a lawyer to place it before the authority of your choice.

Not it doesn't. Failure of the developer to read the deprecation notices and failing to develop their own solution is the issue that stops you from syncing with Android.

That's not my understanding, from talking to Apple. With Mavericks, ability tools to allow third party software like Android to sync is disabled, they said.

Your understanding is wrong,

Can I sync from Android to Outlook for Mac running Mavericks? Or are you saying it's Android's fault?

No, it's Microsofts responsibility, they wrote that piece of crap called Outlook for Mac

Use Outlook for Windows instead, it is fully compatible with dozens of sync systems, but Microsoft decided that the Mac version would only support Exchange. So if you want Outlook for Mac, use Exchange.

Or just get rid of the Microsoft junk and the problem goes away.

OK, so I just upgraded to Maverick, and then found out my sync capabilites are gone. I use Outlook 2011 for business reasons, so now how can I synch my calendar and contacts? I have an android phone, so I was using Synchmate so outlook synced with ical and contacts on the mac and then that allowed a somewhat smooth sync with the android phone, but now with no way to sync with ical or contacts and everything in the cloud, I am lost. How can I sync from outlook contact and calendar to the cloud, and then how can I sync that with my phone?

or if there is no way to sync, instead f having this expensive paperweight, is there a way to get out of the cloud and either sync again with ical and contacts on the mac, or dare i say it, is there a way to get rid of maverick and get mountain lion back?

Why dont you explain again what you want to sync? I think if you simply put your server and account info in each device you will be in business. All this arguing about fault is solving nothing.

I, too, want to sync my outlookd for mac contact and calendar to an android phone. Apple has told me that ability to do that after a Mavericks update is disabled.

What I am trying to sync is my calendar and contacts in office 2011 with ical and contact on my mac and then onto icloud. Since "upgrading" to maverick, I cannot sync anything with outlook.

basically before I "upgrade", i would synch between outlook calendar and contact and ical and contacts on the mac, this would then allow me to sync with my android phone. Now outlook won't sync with anything and ical and contacts only sync with icloud.

Sorry, that's wrong, Outlook for Mac has never been able to sync with iCloud, or any other cloud, except for Exchange. The Windows version of Outlook can sync with iCloud, so complain to Microsoft, maybe they'll change their mind.

Nothing to do with Mavericks, everything to do with Outlook

Your iphone will synch with an exchange server. Get your IT admin to give you the server address and credentials.

Then sync it to icloud ( i have not tried doing both, but why not?)

Tht should do it

Speaking for myself, I don't want my personal contacts and calendar living in the cloud. I want to keep this information confidential and private. There certainly are things that I share on the cloud, by my contacts and calendar won't ever be shared.

Someday, accounts on the cloud might get hacked, It certainly has happened before.

Everything used to work before Mavericks came along, and there was no prior notice that Apple was disabling sync services, as far as I'm aware.

I hold Apple responsible to fix this.
