I am trying to figure out how to set up my wife's iPhone 4S given her somewhat disparate email, contacts and calendar situation.
She uses Hotmail for her email. That part is simple.
For her contacts, her contact email addresses are in Hotmail but the full contact info including phone numbers and addresses are in Outlook. There is some cross over between the two sources.
Her calendar is in Outlook. Previously we used Google Calendar Sync to sync between Outlook and Google and then to her Droid. Hasn't quite worked as of late.
I tried to use the Hotmail Connector to sync from Outlook to Hotmail and then to iPhone but it didn't seem to work both ways.
I set up an iCloud account and it would allow me to upload/sync the contacts between iCloud and Outlook (at least that is what it said). I tried to do the same thing and it wouldn't let me beause I had no email associated with the Outlook client.
Any thoughts to the best approach?
Of course I am trying to figure everything out before activating the iPhone so as not to strand her without her info.
Thanks.
