Like Windows Phone 8.1, Windows 10 for Phones (Windows 10 mobile) syncs iCloudĀ calendars via CalDAV,Ā iCloud contacts via CardDAVĀ andĀ iCloud email via IMAP. In contrast to Windows 10 (technical preview, build 9926), Windows 10 for phones (technical preview, buildĀ 9941.12498) natively supports CalDAV and CardDAV for iCloudĀ calendars and contacts yet. AddedĀ with Windows Phone 8.1, iCloud email, calendars and contacts are also easily set up and working seamlessly with read and write on Windows 10 for phones (Windows 10 mobile). The ‘read-only’ detour over Google calendar subscription or Outlook.com calendar subscription is not necessary anymore.

In the same way as Windows Phone 8.1,Ā Windows 10 for phones (Windows 10 mobile) syncs iCloud calendars and iCloud contacts by CalDAV and CardDAV protocols. I cannot understand why Microsoft has not alreadyĀ added CalDAV and CardDAV support to Windows 10 for desktops.Ā

It won’t work for me! just bought a lumia 550 as an emergency phone due to dead battery in iPhone 5 can sign in to gmail but not iCloud, everything entered correctly but nothing syncs.
Hi,
do you have activated the 2-step-authentication? This is also a common reason for not being able to sign in.
Cheers,
Gee Are
I am having the same problem with my iCloud account. I cannot edit any CalDav or any other settings for that matter.
I do have 2-step authentication set up but no way to allow for this in the iCloud account.
In Email Security setting I get ‘This setting cannot be applied to any of your accounts.
I have a Microsoft Nokia 535 windows 10 phone. I have set up my iCloud email on the phone but it fails to sync with any info. It just says ‘nothing has arrived’. Not sure what else I can do. Any clues??
