Cannot import .ics file into Outlook (new) app

Hi,

I am having several problems with my outlook (new) app.

  1. I cannot import .ics files into the app as no calendar is available in the "Upload from file" window. I have verified that Outlook (new) is the default for .ics files.
  2. I cannot sync my Outlook app calendar on my laptop with my Calendar app on my Iphone 10. I get an error message when I try to sync it via Icloud.

PS: I am using a gmail account for my outlook.

Any suggestions?

Best, Finn

    Don't hold your breath. MS has had plenty of updates and versions of New OUTLOOK come out since we started reporting this BUG!. IT does not seem to be on their priorities list.

    (They fixed the outlook over/hiding the windows taskbar bug pretty quick. But this bug they aren't ashamed of as much for some reason despite being more emabrrassing.)

    Is Microsoft doing anything to solve this issue. It is a big issue to me and affects our productivity.

    Hello All Together.

    The Solution for me was:

    Adding a new Outlook Email to my Microsoft Account.

    That allowed me finally to import my google calender ics File to my Microsoft Calender.

    It unlocked the Option: "Import Calender from File".

    To do that: go to your Microsoft Account in the Browser.

    Then search for "Login settings"

    There you can add an outlook Email to your Account.

    Thats All.
