It is up to Apple to provide a sync capability for the iPhone, not Microsoft. Check Apple support forums for when they decide to add that ability - probably through licensing Microsoft activesync for their iPhone.

you'll do better asking in iPhone forums - few if any people here have them
and therefore, have no experience syncing them. People with the phones would
how to sync.

Hi Pam, you said...
I assume you downloaded the latest iTunes, and set the options to sync your
Outlook calendar, and it didn't work, right? Since you are on this forum, I
also assume Outlook is setup to access your Exchange account, right?
Just a thought, does your PC recognize Outlook as being the default email
program (i.e., does an Outlook message form popup when you click a mailto
link on a webpage)? If the PC doesn't recognize Outlook as the primary email
program, iTunes may not be looking to Outlook for data, esp. if you have
another PIM application. For example, if you used to have a Treo and used
Palm Desktop and Hotsync, iTunes may be looking at Palm Desktop for calendar
info, not your Outlook calendar.
In case you didn't know, iPhone will not (at this time, hey Apple!)
wirelessly sync your calendar, contacts, etc. The only thing it can do with
an Exchange server is give you email via IMAP. And that's only if your
company's administrator has enabled everything on the Exchange server, the
firewall, and possibly with the ISP.
iPhone's only method to sync contacts, calendar and other PIM data is via a
physical sync with your computer and iTunes (syncs like an iPod).
Cheers!

Suggest you talk to the makers of the sync software for the iPhone. That would be Apple.

FYI, I just spent several hours on the phone with Apple for variuos minor
iPhone issues and one major one syncing with outlook 2003. The have done a
great deal of testing with outlook as late since it is the most trouble
reported to them and hear is what they have discovered so far. If you
unpgraded from 2000 to 2003 windows does upgrade some file correctly, but if
installing a new copy it work fines. The same goes if upgrading to 2007.
Their suggestion is to uninstall outlook 2003 upgrade and do a reinstall
with the install just looking at your previous version cd and when the
install is done and you follow the instructions to add in the com add in it
works fine. I'm just getting ready to try this and thought I would share this
info.
Hope this helps,

Okay, so I tried this wonderful advice and boom! Nothing! It still do not
work. So I kepted looking around for info and I finally found the answer to
my question and it was so darn simple I screemed. Here is what I found:
If you are still having a problem synchronizing the Outlook Contacts and
Calendar to the iPhone, even with the latest version of iTunes (7.3.1.3), the
following steps may help. I've found these steps are the fastest solution
until Apple releases a fix; hopefully with the next editions of iTunes.
Again, perform the following if, each time you try to synchronize your
Contacts and Calendar from Outlook 2003 (or perhaps even Outlook 2007) to
your iPhone nothing happens.
A. Open iTunes
B. Open Outlook 2003
C. In Outlook 2003...
1. Enter Tools -> Options
2. Select Other
3. Select Advanced Options
4. Select COM Add-Ins
5. Select Outlook iTunes Sync Addin
6. Click OK
7. Click COM Add-Ins again and verify "Outlook iTunes Sync Addin" is still
selected; if it’s not selected perform these optional steps, however if it is
selected skip these optional steps and move on to step 8.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Optional Steps – Only necessary to perform this if the "Outlook iTunes Sync
Addin" does not remain selected after following the previous steps Still in
Outlook 2003…
a. Enter Help -> About Microsoft Office Outlook
b. Enter Disabled Items
c. Enable the "Addin: outlook itunes sync adding (outlooksyncclient.dll)
d. Click Close
e. Click OK
f. Start at the beginning of these steps
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
8. Click OK
9. Click OK
10. Click OK
11. Leave Outlook 2003 open
D. In iTunes…
1. Synchronize the iPhone
2. Everything selected should be synchronized. That should include Calendar
and Contacts if those are selected.
3. You can then close or leave iTunes open; doesn't matter
4. Move on to the next set of steps.
E. In Outlook 2003...
1. Enter Tools -> Options
2. Select Other
3. Select Advanced Options
4. Select COM Add-Ins
5. Un-Select Outlook iTunes Sync Addin
6. Click OK
7. Click OK
8. Click OK
I hope this helps quite a lot of you. I beleive the iphone will come of age
and be a very powerful tool. I also hope microsoft will take the upperhand
and put this info on their site as I understand MS was blocking this script
as general protection mechanism through script blocking (I believe). Anyway,
I am now fully functional and go to sleep tonight noing I won't be missing

|| Okay, so I tried this wonderful advice and boom! Nothing! It still

|| the answer to
|| my question and it was so darn simple I screemed. Here is what I
|| found:
|| If you are still having a problem synchronizing the Outlook Contacts
|| and Calendar to the iPhone, even with the latest version of iTunes
|| (7.3.1.3), the following steps may help. I've found these steps are
|| the fastest solution until Apple releases a fix; hopefully with the
|| next editions of iTunes.
||
|| Again, perform the following if, each time you try to synchronize
|| your Contacts and Calendar from Outlook 2003 (or perhaps even
|| Outlook 2007) to
|| your iPhone nothing happens.
||
|| A. Open iTunes
||
|| B. Open Outlook 2003
||
|| C. In Outlook 2003...
|| 1. Enter Tools -> Options
|| 2. Select Other
|| 3. Select Advanced Options
|| 4. Select COM Add-Ins
|| 5. Select Outlook iTunes Sync Addin
|| 6. Click OK
|| 7. Click COM Add-Ins again and verify "Outlook iTunes Sync Addin" is
|| still selected; if it’s not selected perform these optional steps,
|| however if it is selected skip these optional steps and move on to
|| step 8. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
|| Optional Steps – Only necessary to perform this if the "Outlook
|| iTunes Sync Addin" does not remain selected after following the
|| previous steps Still in Outlook 2003…
|| a. Enter Help -> About Microsoft Office Outlook
|| b. Enter Disabled Items
|| c. Enable the "Addin: outlook itunes sync adding
|| (outlooksyncclient.dll)
|| d. Click Close
|| e. Click OK
|| f. Start at the beginning of these steps
|| - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
|| 8. Click OK
|| 9. Click OK
|| 10. Click OK
|| 11. Leave Outlook 2003 open
||
|| D. In iTunes…
|| 1. Synchronize the iPhone
|| 2. Everything selected should be synchronized. That should include
|| Calendar and Contacts if those are selected.
|| 3. You can then close or leave iTunes open; doesn't matter
|| 4. Move on to the next set of steps.
||
|| E. In Outlook 2003...
|| 1. Enter Tools -> Options
|| 2. Select Other
|| 3. Select Advanced Options
|| 4. Select COM Add-Ins
|| 5. Un-Select Outlook iTunes Sync Addin
|| 6. Click OK
|| 7. Click OK
|| 8. Click OK
||
|| I hope this helps quite a lot of you. I beleive the iphone will come
|| of age and be a very powerful tool. I also hope microsoft will take
|| the upperhand
|| and put this info on their site as I understand MS was blocking this
|| script
|| as general protection mechanism through script blocking (I believe).
|| Anyway,
|| I am now fully functional and go to sleep tonight noing I won't be
|| missing apptointments due to sync issues.
