sync services: date modified changed for all notes
发布时间:2026-08-21 | 浏览:5
I just turned on Sync Services in Outlook for the first time and checked 'Notes'. Immediately after, all the notes' date modified fields changed to today's date. This is how i normally sorted them and need to be able to view them based on the most recently edited ones. What happened here?? Is this going to keep happening everytime I do a sync as well?
Using older versions of Outlook for Mac in business environments

Using an Exchange account would be the only other option.
I've personally used Microsoft's Exchange Online service (part of Office 365) for a couple of years and it has been rock solid for me. It syncs mail, calendars, contacts, tasks and notes between Outlook for Mac and all my other Exchange-compatible devices such as iPhone and iPad.
I'm paying $48/year for this one account and I get the option to use my own domain name name that I own.
If you're using your account for business then I strongly recommend an Exchange account. You don't need to get one through Microsoft. Other service providers are available too. You can still use Exchange for personal use too, which is what I'm doing.
Hope this helps!

Anonymous 2014-08-24T14:44:30+00:00 My advice is to avoid Sync Services altogether. This is a system service provided by Apple. Outlook is only taking advantage of Apple’s service. Sync Services started breaking in Mountain Lion (OS X 10.8) and Apple didn’t bother to fix it. Apple completely removed Sync Services in Mavericks (OS X 10.9) and it won’t be returning. You might try viewing your notes in Apple’s Notes application. It includes time stamps and may be correct there. Hope this helps! 0 comments No comments Report
