Can I sync my Mac with Office 365 Exchange? I know that the Mac doesn't support sync via Exchange Active Sync, but does Office 365 support Exchange Web Services?
I'd really like to sync Mail/iCal/Addressbook with Office 365.
How to add Microsoft Office 365 Shared Calendars to Apple Calendar for OS X 13 Feb, 2016 11 Comments Image Post I’m not the biggest fan of Microsoft products, anyone who knows me will tell you how much I love my Apple products (ironically just 6 years ago I was an Apple-hater but am now one of their biggest fan boys!).
- Now you can update the details for big meetings at any time if changes are required, outside the Office 365 email and calendar recipient maximum of 500. Available across Outlook. Multiple time zones —Outlook reduces the complexity of managing events across times zones.
- Nov 19, 2017 When you open your Calendar in Microsoft Outlook 2016 for Mac, the Open Shared Calendar button on the ribbon is unavailable. Additionally, when you point to Open on the File menu, the Calendar option is unavailable.
Running Mac OS X 10.7.

This should work with the native OSX apps (iCal, Mail, Address book) on Lion!
You just need to add an Exchange account in the OSX system settings at 'mail, contacts, calendar' - really simple!
However, I have a case here where autodiscover does not work (a certificate error is returned when setting up the account, obviously because the domain is not fully delegated to MS on the internal DNS servers of the previous provider). Here, it gets difficult because in the accounts wizard of OSX you do not get the chance to enter the server name (sth. like podxxxxx.outlook.com) manually.
Here, iCal is the relief, it seems to be more tolerant:
- Start iCal, go to options (
cmd - ,) - Click accounts, click the plus
- Choose type 'Exchange', and enter your email address, and a nonsense password, click Create account.
- When the wrong certificate is shown, do not accept it (repeatedly). After a few errors/clicks, you get a dialog where you can manually enter the server name!
- Here, enter
podxxxx.outlook.comand your correct password. - After doing so, iCal should work with Office 365.
Office 365 Calendar App
The account will also be listed in the system settings, and you can just switch on Mail and Contacts.

It would seem like yes. Follow the instructions here:
