I have recently installed Office Home and Business 2010 on my 32-bit Windows 7 PC. I am experiencing several sync-related issues due to the inability to select Outlook as the Default Email client. After a search for online help there appears to be two conflicting and incompatible ways to set Outlook as the default email program. Outlook 2010 help suggests opening Outlook, selecting the File Tab, selecting Options, selecting General, and then selecting the check-box to "Make Outlook the default program for E-Mail, Contacts, and Calender". I did that, however, Outlook still does not show up on the Default Program listing and is not being recognized as the default by either the MobileMe or Blackberry syncing programs. Likewise when attempting to set Outlook as the default by selecting the Start menu, Default Programs tab, 'Set your default programs' option, Outlook does not even show up as an option to select amongst the other programs (Windows Live Mail does).
It would appear that for the sync services to work, Outlook would have to be a selectable option from the default program listing. How does one make that happen?
Thanks in advance,
