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.

    I found a Workaround... the condition is to make a meeting with someone who can sinc  the calendar and that person should re-send the invitation to you.

    No, that link only applies to Mac Office 2011.  No help with Office 2016 for Mac

    From what I'm reading, there isn't a simple solution for my issue: 

    I am running Outlook 2016 for Mac through an Office 365 for Business subscription.  The Mac is now my work computer (a public school district).  It replaced my windows laptop running local versions of Office.  Working with OneDrive, I can access and edit files from any platform.  However, I cannot seem to sync my 365 contacts with the Mac version of Outlook.  To access my contacts, I have to use the web interface.  Am I missing something?

    This happened to my wife and I.  We both have Macs with Outlook 2016.  We configured via IMAP but after a while (few weeks or months) it stops syncing.  Only resolution I've found so far is to remove the account and add it back.
