Hello,

I have a Macbook and want to use my Outlook.com account on iCal.   I would like to use this as my primary calendar to add all events and invite attendees so that it is in the Outlook.com cloud.   I cannot seem to add it using the Mac preferences.  Please help.

Thank you!

Hey!

Choose Exchange and when it asks Username its your email address. Then it asks Internal Server and External Server so those are both outlook.office365.com. Worked for me.

    m_177 and SamiFa: you should be able to subscribe to your Outlook.com calendar in iCal (I just tried it and it worked)--the trick is to replace the "webcals://" in the calendar event details sharing link you generate from the web interface with "https://". Let me know if you're running into problems and I can investigate further. 

    Alan: We do also offer a REST API which allows you to modify your calendar, and we support a protocol called FeedSync that the Windows Live Mail desktop client and the Hotmail Connector that is used by versions of Outlook on Windows prior to 2013, but we don't offer CalDAV or EWS endpoints. Thus, the best out-of-browser experience we presently offer on the Mac is the read-only ICS subscription.

    Hello all,

    I would like to know if anyone can help with adding the outlook.com calendar on the Calendar program on an Apple MacBook, I was able to get the outlook.com email working, but not the calendar !?

    In other words, I want to use the Outlook.com calendar on my local computer via Apple's calendar program.

    Thanks,

    Sami

    Hello,

    I had different use case that I solved, but maybe it can help: I have a calendar in Google. I have another calendar in Outlook.com. I want to see Outlook.com calendar in Google Calendar.

    1. Go to Outlook.com calendar. Click on Share, and then on Get link.
    2. Choose the ICS one and change the beginning of the link from webcals to http.
    3. Enter this address in the calendar URL in Google.

    Cheers.
