My iPhone contacts currently sync with my company's Microsoft exchange server (Outlook).  So when I enter a contact on my company notebook computer (in Outlook) it shows up shortly thereafter on my iPhone.  I have a personal MacBook Air that I'd like to have the same contacts on.  I've tried syncing (by USB thru iTunes) my MacBook Air to my iPhone, but it won't push the contacts to the MacBook Air.  Is there a way to do this?  I've tried fiddling with some set-up options and did click on the Sync contacts button, but it won't do so.
I purchased Office for my macbook air, but when I tried to download it I got a warning.  It appears that the version I purchased (includes Outlook) has more memory than the little Air...is this the case?  
Quietly going out of my mind here (actually not very quietly at all).

I have a shiny new MacBook Air and I've set up three email accounts in Outlook for Mac 2011.

Two burning issues:

1. I have followed instructions to the letter to disable the unified inbox but no new folders appear on the list.

2. The default inbox downloaded all my emails, starting from August last year. The other two have only downloaded a few. This isn't a batch downloading issue because I set the accounts up last night and left Outlook running. Is there some way I can force synchronise? I've also tried importing mbox files but they are greyed out.

Help!
I have just purchased a new MacBook Air and just installed Microsoft Office 2011 Business.  I want to set up Outlook to use my 'gmail' email account and am trying to set this up.  When I try to open Outlook, for the first time, it asked me to select an identity.  I select Main Identity, not sure what this means, I am getting a message "Could not change to that identity. An unknown error has occurred in Outlook".  Also when I selected Quit it happened.  I have gone into 'preferences' 'mail, contacts & calendars and put in my gmail account, but still get error.  Eeek... What am I doing wrong?
Fairly recently I purchased Office for Mac for my MacBook Air.  I did not get Outlook at the time because I was using the mail program that came on my Mac.  Now I'm interested in adding just Outlook, but all I find is pricing & downloads for the entire Office suite.  I cannot find any pricing or information anywhere (or an email or phone number to call... arrrgghh!) to ask if it's possible to just get Outlook.
