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.

    Hi!

    Outlook.com does not support CalDAV, WebDAV och CardDAV unfortunately, not IMAP for mail either. I'm hesitant they ever will. They hae hinted on extended MAC support, but what that mean in reality, nobody knows at this point. I'm using both a MAC and a PC, and I too am disapointed with the lack of MAC support at this point. Maybe there will be EAS intgration in an uupcoming Outlook 2011 update OR in the coming Outlook 2014...

    If my boyfriend wasn't insisting on using outlook to organize all his stuff, I would never ever use a service that didn't play well with basic services like CalDav. What a load of ****.

    That's a pity.  In this day and age, where BYOD is becoming more popular, support for such standards is becoming a must.  We have one staff member who has a MacBook Air and she can't use our charity's hotmail calendar for shared scheduling. To date, we haven't successfully convinced her to go to the calendar with her browser and to enter her work related appointments directly.  Maybe we should just tell her rather than ask her.
