Problems with Outlook 2007/2010 synchronization

Asked By barbara cruise 0 points N/A Posted on - 11/06/2011

 

I have two Outlook Contact files that I require to sync, but one is my own computer at home and one is at the working place. There is no chance to link both. I am unsure that Outlook Sync can provide solution on this problem. One file is Outlook 2010 and the other is Outlook 2007. I have no idea if this is significant or not, even if I don't believe it does. Someone please provide ideas if this synchronization is possible? Please provide recommendations?

Problems with Outlook 2007/2010 synchronization

Hello Barbara

You can only sync two Outlook accounts if you use the same email account in both. This will only work if you are using a mail server that is accessible through the internet. If you use Exchange server email account in your office you can only sync if that Exchange server has access to the internet and it allows you to use the account remotely. That, you will have to ask your administrator.

If that is not possible then you will have to manually sync the files. You can export folders in outlook to a file called personnel folders file. You can use this to transfer files between two accounts.
