Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT

Looks like no one’s replied in a while. To start the conversation again, simply ask a new question.

For no reason that I know of. My icloud contacts and calendar quit upadating to outlook. I have followed the procedures of uninstalling and reinstalling icloud for windows on my pc. I have done the sync. No icloud info in outlook? What next.

Not sure why my icloud contacts quit syncing to outlook on my PC. My other iphone and Ipad are all updating. It must be a setting in outlook 2007. Not sure what to do. Thanks for any help.

iPhone 5s, iOS 10.3.2

If you are using non-Apple apps to access iCloud - such as Outlook - you are now required to use an 'app-specific' password in place of your normal iCloud password. In order to do this you need to set up two-factor authentication for your Apple ID, and for this you need to have either a Mac running el Capitan or above, or an iOS device running iOS9 or above.

There was an iCloud update version released today.


I unistalled icloud completetley from my pc and re installed the updated version and it works now.


I still have the problem that the iCloud complements in Outlook get inactive everytime I close Outlook, but if activate them mannualy, it syncs well.
