I have a Mac and version Version 16.114 (26101123) of outlook. I can't sync outlook with teams. I have created an outlook email address as apparently gmail doesn't work. Any advice would be super appreciated :)

Microsoft Teams | Microsoft Teams for business | Calendar | Sync calendars

    Dear Chris-Anon,

    The Teams Meeting button in Outlook for Mac appears in the Outlook for Mac ribbon if Outlook is running production build 16.24.414.0 and later and is activated with a Microsoft 365 or Office 365 client subscription.

    Gmail and other POP/IMAP accounts aren't supported for this functionality, and a personal Outlook.com/Microsoft account may not provide the required Teams meeting integration either.

    If the add-in is missing or disabled, it can interfere with scheduling online meetings. This article explains who is eligible to use the add-in, why it might be disabled or missing: Understanding the Microsoft Teams Meeting Add-in for Outlook: Eligibility, Issues, and Troubleshooting

    In this case, please make sure that you're using a supported Microsoft 365 work or school account then, please try the following:

    1. In Outlook for Mac, select Tools > Accounts, select your Microsoft 365 account, and confirm that the account is shown using your full work/school email address.
    2. Make sure you're signed in to both Outlook and Microsoft Teams with the same work or school account.
    3. Fully quit both Outlook and Teams. Then open Microsoft Teams first, sign in, and open Outlook again.
    4. In Outlook, open Calendar > New Event and check whether the Teams Meeting option is now available.

    For more reference, please refer to:

    If the issue still persists after trying the steps above, could you please confirm the following:

    1. Do you experience the same issue when scheduling a Teams meeting from Outlook on the web?
    2. Are any other users in your organization experiencing the same issue, or does it appear to affect only your account?

    Please let me know the updates on your side whether it helps or not. Thank you for your valuable time and cooperation.

    Hello

    If you are talking about gmail/outlook.com email address for your account, you are not using Teams for business, you are using Teams for personal.

    Teams for business doesn't provide Teams add in in Classic Outlook, meaning you cannot create Teams meeting in Classic Outlook.

    But if you have New Outlook, you can set up the outlook.com address, and when you create a calendar item, you will find the Teams toggle to turn it into a Teams meeting.
