    Thanks for this.  I changed my default calendar to Calendar from PC and everything was synced perfectly, immediately!

    OK,  I've been working on this issue all day.  Thought I'd post how I fixed mine.  I ran the SCANPST.EXE.   It is located at (for Office/Outlook 2013):     C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office 15\root\office15\SCANPST.EXE

     

    Make sure you show hidden files and system operating files in File Explorer.  ALSO...very important..Exit out of Outlook before you even search for the file or it will not show up.

     

    So I ran it (and it repaired) and to my amazement everything starting syncing.   So I had a corrupt outlook.pst file.

     

    FYI - I did perform the items below...didn't fix my problem... until I ran scanpst.exe..  But it may have help in some way.  just not sure if all I needed was scanpst.exe to repair my corrupted pst file.

    - Deleted C:\Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\Preferences

    - Deleted C:Users/App Data/Apple Computer

    - Uninstalled Itunes & did a new download/reinstall

    I have resolved my problem -- which I had narrowed down to recurring appointments not synching.  Today I changed the status from "Working Elsewhere" to "Busy" and the problem disappeared.  I know it works with "Free" also, but did not test "Tentative" or "Out of Office."

    I have just spent the last 2 days trying to resolve the problem after upgrading to Outlook 2013 and downloading the latest version of iTunes. Came across the following: "Microsoft and Apple have withdrawn support for this particular feature" (http://www.iskysoft.com/iphone-transfer/sync-outlook-with-iphone.html). Tried the iCloud and Outlook.Com suggested solutions, all problematic. Installed AkrutoSync - works beautifully! I plan to replace my iPhone with an Android device, I'm just not prepared to continue to support a company which causes such s*** in my life. The beauty of Akruto is that it works with Android as well - definitely worth paying a few $$$ for an effective solution, reduced stress/aggravation, and no time-wasting.

    I had the same problem, Outlook 2013 stopped syncing calendars and contacts to my iPhone6.  Tried everything in this thread and nothing seemed to work.

     

    I did the following:

     

    1. Deleted my outlook.pst file and created a new .pst file

    2. Manually copied over any emails in folders that I needed.

    3, Synced iPhone (which copied over contacts and calendar info)

    4. Worked like a charm.

     

    Looks like my outlook.pst file somehow got corrupted and was causing problems with the itunes sync.

     

    Hope this helps!


    Cheers

    Ajay

    Perfect! this was exactly what I needed, even though all I was syncing was the calendar. Thank you VERY much!
