Sync New Outlook with iCloud Calendar
I just got a new laptop and am trying to sync the New Outlook Calendar with my iCloud Calendar. The intent is to have any Calendar changes made on one device (iPad, iPhone, laptop) to sync to all device Calendars. The problem I'm having is that iCloud Calendar only synchs with Outlook (Classic) and I want to sync with New Outlook.
The Outlook version is 1.2025.1121.100 ; the Outlook Client Version is 20251128003.09
The list of Apps that comes up after clicking on Start shows both Outlook and Outlook (Classic). If I right click on Outlook (Classic) and click on uninstall (thought that might help fix this), the only Outlook listed in Apps > Installed Apps is Outlook. I did not uninstall Outlook.
To set-up Calendar synching I opened iCloud > Calendars and Contacts > Calendars and Contacts Settings. I turned on "Automatically sync your iCloud calendars and contacts to Microsoft Outlook". After syncing completes, all iCloud Calendar entries appear in the Outlook (Classic) Calendar, but nothing syncs to the New Outlook calendar.
I'm assuming this is an Outlook issue, not an iCloud issue. Any ideas on how to fix this?
Thanks

It sounds like the iCloud sync feature is only working with the Classic version of Outlook, and unfortunately, the new Outlook doesn’t support direct iCloud integration yet. The “New Outlook” version is more streamlined and doesn’t support some older features, like syncing with iCloud.
What you can try is to switch back to Classic Outlook temporarily to keep syncing with iCloud, or look for any updates on the New Outlook that might eventually add this feature.
Alternatively, using iCloud's web app or syncing through a different method (like using an iCloud calendar link) might be another workaround, but it’s not ideal.
Hope that helps!
I should have mentioned that Outlook is installed on my Laptop. I do not have an Office 365 subscription.
