I agree and this solution will work. If you have been using your iCloud calendar for a while and it is well established you probably won’t like this solution since you will manually need to migrate your iCloud Calendar to your Outlook calendar. For example, birthdays and reoccurring events will need to be recreated. I just performed a quick Google search and everything I was seeing talked about creating an outlook.com account and going that direction. If you only have an iPHone and your not sharing your iCloud calendar with a Mac this solution will work. Again, you will need to physically create reoccurring and any upcoming events in Outlook.

The easiest solution is to add an Outlook Email account on your smart phone. Then, make sure the Outlook calendar is set as the default on the smart phone and you have two way synchronization. Richard, in the U.S. "You know," said Arthur, "it's at times like this, when I'm trapped in a Vogon airlock with a man from Betelgeuse, and about to die of asphyxiation in deep space, that I really wish I'd listened to what my mother told me when I was young." "Why, what did she tell you?" "I don't know, I didn't listen." -- Douglas Adams, The Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy When I looked into this last summer the conduit was only in one direction. Meaning that you could populate your Outlook calendar on your Win 10 system, but anything you did in Outlook was not reflected in iCloud. The two systems are not overly compatible. Also you had to do the setup in iCloud.com and the site is not overly accessible. You can Google it to see if there have been any changes. I do use iCloud for Windows but it does not include the calendar, but recently it started to sync contacts and your iCloud email. Maybe someday in the future it will also include the calendar.

I don’t have it setup yet, but I can. I already have icloud setup on my iphone, so can’t I just use iCloud to sync my calendar? Assumiong you have an Outlook account set up in your iPhone, go to Settings, Calendar, and near the bottom select default calendar. On that screen there will be categories for on my iPhone, iCloud, and Outlook. Make sure the one that says Calendar under the Outlook heading is selected. You can have as many calendars shown as you like, but if the Outlook Calendar is the default, when you add an appointment on your iPhone, it will show up on your Computer. At least, that works for me.

"I don't know, I didn't listen." -- Douglas Adams, The Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy I have an event that I’d like to put on my outlook calendar, but also want all my events to sync with my iphone. Is there a way to do this? The sync could also go the other way, so if I add something to my iphone calendar, it’d also show in outlook. Can anyone help with this?
