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

I have 2 problems:

  1. The option to edit contacts on my Android phone is no longer listed as an option. I can only view the contacts.
  2. When I want to add new contact on my Android phone, I can only add to my Gmail account.

Any work around for these problem? Apart from switching to WP/Apple.

    It´s work. But I needed to do the following:

    1. Remove all accounts from Outlook app;
    2. Open Contats App, click on 3 dots (sandwich menu), manage accounts, enter in each account and disable contats Sync;
    3. Add a new Account, Exchante Type, click in Manual Setup, insert the Server Address eas.outlook.com and email/password;
    4. Sync account;
    5. Open Contacts App again and confirm that the only account syncing contacts is Exchange Account.

    All working now!!
