[German<\/a>]Microsoft hasn't been too successful with the latest updates for Outlook. Every update shipped for Outlook during the last months is causing issues. Since May 2017, one patch after the other has been causing problems. Here is the attempt to compile some information about Outlook patch issues end of September 2017. <\/p>\n

Since July 2017 there are problems with the connection of Outlook to Apple's iCloud. I had published a blog post about Microsoft Outlook: Microsoft Outlook: Fix for iCloud Sync problem<\/a> that suggests solutions to problems.

A discussion about this topic may be found at<\/a> Askwoody.com. Microsoft offers a new update KB401110 for Outlook 2007 (see Office Patchday (July 5, 2017)<\/a>). But this package has been mentioned as a trouble maker within the previous section for iCloud connection. <\/p>\n

By Design: Outlook VBScript issue<\/h2>\n

In July 2017 users detected, that custom forms are no longer allowing printing in Outlook, because of missing VBScript. The first impression was 'that's a bug'. But after September 2017 update VBScript hase been blocked again. <\/p>\n
