Currently, Outlook for Mac doesn't support the CalDAV or CardDAV Internet standards. This means Outlook for Mac does not sync your iCloud Calendar or contacts when you add your iCloud email account. That being said, there is a way to sync your iCloud calendar with Outlook for Mac—you can subscribe to your iCloud calendar to Outlook on the web (Outlook Web Access), and once you do that, the subscribed iCloud calendar automatically syncs with Outlook for Mac.

  1. Open a browser window and sign in to your iCloud account.

  2. In iCloud, click Calendar.

  3. Click the Share Calendar icon next to the calendar you want to configure in Outlook, and make sure Public Calendar is enabled.

Notes:

  • The account signed in to Outlook on the web has to be also added to Outlook for Mac. The account can be your work or school account on Office 365 or Exchange or any Outlook account (such as @outlook.com, @hotmail.com).
