I am having a problem with Outlook. Actually, the problem is with disorganization in my life and I want to try to use Outlook to help me sort things out. I've got lots of stuff going on at the moment - at work, at the user groups, and in my personal life. So I thought having all this stuff in the calendar and tasklist in Outlook would certainly help out a bit. Then I could use some of the tips Kirk mentioned in his blog and try to keep myself on track better.
Here's the problem:
I have 2 computers - 1 work desktop and 1 laptop. I'd like to keep the calendar in the laptop up to date with everything, but I have a tendancy to spend so much time in front of my desktop at work that I find most of my life is managed through the calendar there. The desktop Outlook is hooked to an Exchange server, the laptop is not. I want a way to synchronize my calendar, tasks, and notes from my desktop to my laptop. I don't need this to be two way synchronization. I don't want my e-mail from work "infecting" my laptop. I don't want to have to manage multiple profiles to get this to work, and I don't want to have multiple calendars in the same view. I want everything on one calendar. How do I do this?
I thought that this list of helpful advice from SlipStick might help out, but I was so confused by the array of conflicting advice that I gave up.
Does anyone out there have a solution to this issue? Thanks!
