Outlook for Mac 2016 won't sync 365 Calendar and Contacts

I've installed the beta on my iMac and my MacPro.  Everything works great on my MacPro with syncing my contact and calendar from 365, even syncs well on my iPhone.  But no matter what I try to do Outlook will not sync my calendar and contacts from 365.  It will sync my mail but that's it.

From all outward appearances the settings are the same.  I've uninstalled the beta, removed the Outlook data from Library, etc., reinstalled and the same situation.

Any idea why it won't sync on two Macs at the same time?

Thanks.

    My issue is with contacts.  I have numerous contact groups inn 365.  They sink to my Windows laptop Outlook client, but not the Mac.  I've heard it's simply not a supported feature.

    I found a solution that worked for me, hopefully it works for you too. I deselected contacts and calendar on my original office 365 Exchange integration. Then I created another Exchange integration (same credentials) and selected only calendar and contacts. After about 10mins, all my Outlook calendar items showed up in my Mac calendar.

    Thanks for the reply. I am having the same problem with both my macs (iMac and MacAir). I am also having problems with my MSN mail not syncing between computers. If I delete or move an email to a folder on one computer, it won't affect my email on the other computer. So I have to perform the same actions on that computer. From what I can tell on this discussion board the problem is that Outlook 2016 for Mac is no longer able to sync to Outlook.com on a Mac computer. they say it will still sync on mobile, but I've been having problems there too. Let me know if you come up with any work a rounds for this problem. 

    Thanks

    I was wrong.   I thought it was syncing with my Mac Pro but it wasn't.  Neither the of my Macs were syncing calendar or contacts.

    I have a Office 365 Home account, but I can't sync Outlook 2016 with Office 365. What I do in the Mac, die in the Mac. On my cell phone it works great.
