Windows 7 (64) + Outlook 2010 (32) + Zimbra 5

[lolbroek]

I have the following situation:
- Windows 7 Enterprise 64 bit
- Outlook Professional Plus 2010 32 bit (official RTM version, no Beta)
- Server: 5.0.18_GA_3009
- Client: 5.0.3064.18

Works:
- Installing connector
- Adding zimbra account
- Synchronizing my e-mail
Doesn't work:
- Synchronizing my calendar

The strange part is that adding shared calendars of other users is working!
I am doing this by selecting 'Other User's Mailbox' underneath 'Add-Ins'.

Can I install a 6 version connector in combination with a 5 version server?
Has anyone an idea how to solve this problem?

We don't support version 6 Outlook connectors talking to version 5 servers. The Outlook connector has to be older, so we support doing it the other way around (5 connector, 6 server)

Had Similar type of problem with OL2007

Installed Zimbra Desktop 1.0.4 and OL seem more stable
ReStarted OL several times - after crashing it gets better each time
so it's probably the time-out problem mentioned here
http://www.zimbra.com/forums/zimbra-connector-outlook/36333-outlook-express-windows-7-a.html
(but can't find the entry in WIN7 registry)
where Fsiegel from Zimbra suggests
"You could be timing out. Bump your connection timeouts in the registry to 900000. (HKLM\SOFTWARE\Zimbra\Connection."

Tried WIN7 Virtual XP as alternative
Windows Virtual appears not to allow Zimbra connector to install "In Remote Desktop mode". Works OK with VMware though

where can I download latest 0utlook Connector version 5 ?

PS
Impressed with lolbroek specs and OL2010 only out 2 days
will try 2010 soon

I'm actually not sure where the official versions of the Outlook connector are. How did you get the one you're using now?

Combined with my zimbra server installation.
