Solved Outlook connector, Office 2013 and Windows 8.1?

[annabanana]

I used outlook connector on my Win 7 desktop PC, really like the functionality. I got a new desktop with 8.1 and I cannot find anything saying outlook connector works or doesn't on 8.1 - is anyone using it with Win 8.1 and Office 2013? I find the outlook.com calendar not so handy for creating new appointments. It's easier for me to create them on my BlackBerry Passport which syncs nicely with outlook.com. But I prefer creating them in Outlook and having it sync with everything else. Thx.

This says you don't need the connector with OL 2013...

I never found that on my web searches... thanks. I'll give it a try. Edit - it says

EAS will sync mail, calendar, contacts and tasks from your Outlook.com account! We’ve heard many requests from users who want to sync their tasks from an Outlook.com account, and now you can.

I hope that means syncing in both directions because I want to create appointment in Outlook 2013 first.
