Windows Calendar & Outlook
Sync SilentSuite with Windows Calendar, Windows Contacts, or Microsoft Outlook through the SilentSuite Bridge.
Prerequisites
- The SilentSuite Bridge running on your PC.
- Your SilentSuite credentials from the bridge's web UI at
http://localhost:37358/.web/.
Windows Calendar & Mail App
- Open Calendar (or Mail).
- Go to Settings (gear icon) > Manage Accounts > Add account.
- Select iCloud (this is a workaround -- Windows doesn't have a generic CalDAV option).
- Enter:
- Email: your SilentSuite email
- Password: your SilentSuite password
- Windows will fail to connect to iCloud. When it shows the manual configuration:
- Calendar server (CalDAV):
http://localhost:37358/ - Contacts server (CardDAV):
http://localhost:37358/
- Calendar server (CalDAV):
- Click Sign In.
TIP
The Windows DAV client has known limitations. For detailed steps and workarounds specific to your Windows version, see the SilentSuite Bridge guide.
Microsoft Outlook
Outlook's built-in CalDAV support is limited. For best results, use a connector:
- Install a CalDAV plugin for Outlook (e.g., Outlook CalDav Synchronizer -- free, open source).
- Configure it with:
- CalDAV URL:
http://localhost:37358/ - CardDAV URL:
http://localhost:37358/ - Username: your SilentSuite email
- Password: your SilentSuite password
- CalDAV URL:
Alternative: em Client
em Client is a Windows email/calendar app with excellent CalDAV/CardDAV support:
- Install em Client.
- Add a CalDAV account with server
http://localhost:37358/. - Enter your SilentSuite credentials.
Running the Bridge at Startup
To run the SilentSuite Bridge automatically on Windows startup, see the DAV bridge guide for Windows service configuration.
Troubleshooting
Windows Calendar won't connect
Windows 10/11 has bugs with local CalDAV connections. Try:
- Using
127.0.0.1instead oflocalhost. - The SilentSuite Bridge guide for platform-specific workarounds.
