When the Connector for Apple® iSync is installed, you can use Apple Address Book, iCal, and Microsoft® Entourage® to access the Zimbra Collaboration Suite server and synchronize data to and from the Mac.

The Connector for Apple iSync supports Entourage only from Microsoft Office 2004 for Mac, version 11.2.3. This is the first version of Microsoft Office for Mac in which Entourage supports Mac Sync Services, the same service used by the iCal and Address Book applications for data synchronization.

The ZCS Connector for Apple iSync plug-in uses the standard Apple package installer. It takes only a few minutes for users to install the Connector for Apple iSync on their computers, establish the connections to the Zimbra server and set up a synchronization schedule.

Before you begin

Before you synchronize your calendars and address books, you should backup your Apple’s iCal and Address book data. If synchronization should fail, you can use these files to restore your Mac information.
