The original had contacts that were not in any subfolder, so I guess I have to separate everyone.Īnd don't even talk to me about the Mail client! What a mess! Should prove an interesting week.
#Ical dupe deleter how to#
And I still haven't figured out how to make categories or move anything around.Ĭontacts looks snafu-ed: my default Contacts folder has ALL the contacts. Now my Mac Calendar has all the appointments, but they're not in categories, of course. (I guess I'll trust Apple-the guys at the store said not to worry, and I don't know what else to do.) I reinstalled it and sent my Calendar, all Contacts (and subfolders), and Tasks to the Cloud. Don't mind paying another $30 if it does what I need to do before Monday and the work week comes flyin' at me.ĮDIT: O.K., here's where things are at: I uninstalled iCloud on the PC. If you wouldn't mind, please walk me through the steps you recommend that would cause the fewest sessions of therapy in the long run.

I don't think I need Outlook on the iMac, but my future son-in-law has given me the "MS Office for Mac Standard 2011" disc to use as well as 2008 (but we're not sure which key he's got or if he has both), but maybe it would be handy.? I haven't tried anything yet and I've been putting strain on the brain trying to figure out the best procedure to try: All I want to do now is get my Outlook calendar, contacts and, if possible, tasks and notes from Outlook to the iMac native apps, including iCloud. When you say "mail's a great app," do you mean the "Messagesave" product at the web site "TechHit" she mentioned? Apparently, it's on sale for $30. O.K., I apologize, but I'm not following you.

Oh, BTW, do try out MS Office - there's the 30-day trial to port over that PST file, and you might like Outlook 2011 too. While not "free", it's about the same price as 10 minutes of therapy.
The app that your FF friend offered up is good stuff, about $50 I think. I use a VPN for important work while I'm out in the field, and never use public WiFi (that's just me). If it helps, I'm using Outlook for business mail, Apple Mail for personal stuff, iCal/iCloud for both local/cloud calendaring, and Address Book for local cloud contacts, with the latter two having local copies synched to an iPhone for my business stuff, and iCloud to both of my iPhones for general stuff. MS hasn't allowed Outlook 2011 to talk to any other "one-stop shop". Outlook 2011 syncs IMAP/POP email very well, local calendars (that are also "seen" in iCal, but only as local items), and local contacts (that are also "seen" in Address Book, but only as local items) - and to Exchange servers (2007/10). Now, there's one app you could consider that eats and converts Outlook 2010 PST files perfectly, but it isn't cheap - Outlook 2011.
ICal is two things - a calendar app and a calendar sync portal - OS X uses sync frameworks at the system level for Google and Yahoo, app-level sync for other types of calendar feeds in addition to the "On My Mac" (desktop) calendaring.Īddress Book also has frameworks for Google and Yahoo calendaring, plus the ability to sync to feeds and "On My Mac" (desktop) contacts. Mail's a great app, supporting Exchange email as well as Outlook 2010/11. Listen to the lady! That's a good choice since you've thought about porting over to the Mac side.
