Now I can't edit contact and add new contact to outlook.com account on my Android phone.

I'm using Office 365 also and I have not experienced a problem.  I sync calendar, tasks, and contacts with ActiveSync and sync mail with Outlook.  I haven't tried syncing mail with ActiveSync because I don't really use Outlook email, but I know contacts, calendar, and tasks will update properly using ActiveSync and let you add/edit/delete directly from your phone.  I did quite a bit of testing of this just a few weeks ago at most.  It works great.  (It would, of course, have been nice if mobile Outlook worked the same way "out of the box" -- this thread is how I learned to use ActiveSync.)

All you have to do is sync with ActiveSync and they are fully editable.  It will automatically update Outlook data by doing this because you are in fact editing Outlook data with ActiveSync.  It works.

ok, that is great.  I've moved on from Activesync and I don't think Office 365 supports that anymore...

I'm using office 365 with Outlook 365. They use (I think) the onedrive sync or sharepoint to sync the data between Outlook on PC and outlook.com then to  phone...

Hi DannyWongMTCA,

Please provide us additional information. These will be used for deeper investigation. Kindly answer the following questions below.

• Have you tried reconfiguring your account?

Thank you.

None of those suggestions work.

I download outlook.com app.

install on Android phone Samsung Galaxy Note 3 

Running Android 4.4.2

Go to Phone Settings>Accounts>OUtlook.com>click on account>Check Box "Sync Contacts" exit.

Open Contacts App, I see all contacts that are on Google account as well as Outlook.com account

Open a contact, that is in both accounts (or just outlook.com account) and select edit, 

THE OUTLOOK.COM DATA IS UN-EDITABLE!!!

Hello, apparently my outlook contacts on my Android phone can't be edited...  Sad.  I want to sync between outlook.com and my Android phone and now can only sync Calendar and email...  Now I have opened the option to view outlook.com contacts on my Android phone but can't edit them or delete them etc...  They are viewable but I would like to use Outlook.com to sync my data between my home PC running Office 365 with OUtlook and Outlook.com and my phone.  Unfortunately, for me I have an Android phone which using the Outlook app I can only view contacts Not Edit them.

When will this feature be available?  much needed to push the platform and the Idea of syncing my data between the three platforms PC Cloud and Phone...  This is a Great Opportunity for MS to capitalize on.  I can make backups of my data on my pc in case something happens to the data I can restore easily.

Yes, I want to know this answer too.  When is it (outlook on my Android phone) going to be able to sync contacts/people between my Android phone and outlook.com (and then to my desktop OUtlook 365)?  When you do this MS I will switch all my info to the OUtlook.com office 365 platform.

It should have been quite a while ago.  Or, Do I have to get a Windows phone to sync contacts/calendar/email???
