Outlook Tips

My problem is with the iCloud contacts in the Address Book. The contacts are not to be found in the Address Book or any reference to them under Account Settings – Address Books.

Well, they won't be listed separately in File, Account Settings, Address books. The iCloud Contacts are part of the Outlook Address Book. If you double click on the Outlook Address Book, you'll see a list of all Contacts folders that are enabled as Address books. iCloud should be on this list. If it's not, see the information at the end of this article.

The usual reason the iCloud Contacts aren't visible in the address book is because you're looking at the wrong address list.

To check which address book Outlook is using, you need to open the Address Book dialog.

1. 1. Click the Address Book button on the Home menu or press Ctrl+Shift+B.
      
   2. If the iCloud address book is displayed in the Address book selector, but you cant see any contacts, select Name only for Search on the left. When More columns is selected, you'll only see contacts when you type something in the search field.
      
   3. If iCloud is not the default address book, click Tools, Options.
      
   4. Select the iCloud contacts from the menu at the bottom of the dialog.
      
   5. If you have more than one Contacts folder that has contacts in it, you may want to set iCloud to be searched first (at the top of the dialog).

   The iCloud installation should enable the iCloud Contacts as an Address Book automatically, but you can double check just to be sure. Right click on the iCloud Contacts folder and choose Properties, look on the Outlook Address Book tab. Verify the iCloud Contacts folder is enabled as an Address Book.
