My current workplace uses Macs and my old workplaces used Windows. In my old workplaces I heavily used Outlook's Task functionality to manage my workload. I understand that the Task functionality in Outlook 2011 for Mac is heavily limited so I was very pleased to find. My problem is that my tasks don't appear in the Task folder, or anywhere else for that matter. Even if I search for a the title of a task I've recently found I still can't find them. After some Googling I found, which points to a Microsoft KB.
Outlook for Mac does *not* use ActiveSync, it uses Microsoft's EWS. Check Tools > Accounts. And the settings for your Exchange account, click on the Advanced button.

So I went through all of the recommended steps on rebuilding/ adding a new identity using the 'Microsoft Database Utility' - the theory being that if I create a new identity I can test the task creation using a 'blank slate' identity. When I change the default identity to my newly created identity using the Microsoft Database Utility (have to restart the computer) Task creation still doesn't work. Any ideas appreciated, I really miss the task functionality in Outlook 2010 for Windows. I'm using El Capitan with Outlook 2016. My tasks would not show up, though I could add a task and have it show up in my phone and in OWA. I got my tasks to show up by adding and removing my Outlook profile directory to Spotlight Privacy.
Word 2011 totally works in High Sierra: — Spider Mann (@spidermann) Microsoft recommends users upgrade to Office 2016 for Mac, which is fully supported on macOS High Sierra. OS X 10.10 or later is required. In other words, support has completely ended. Earlier this year, Microsoft said it had Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook and Lync on macOS High Sierra, but some users on the web have reported that the suite is mostly functional on the new operating system.

I used Microsoft's KB article (linked above) and found these steps worked for me: • Close Outlook. • Open System Preferences > Spotlight > Privacy • Drag ~/Library/Group Containers/UBF8T346G9.Office/Outlook/Outlook 15 Profiles/ to the Spotlight Privacy list (or click '+' and navigate to the folder). If you can't find your Library folder: • Click the '-' to remove the folder. • Exit System Preferences.

• Open Outlook 2016. I then saw my tasks. This happened to me, and I think I fixed it. In my case, I had set Spotlight to ignore a Microsoft User Data folder (i.e., don't index it), because my Mac's 'Today' and 'Past Week' searches are spoiled by hundreds of irrelevant Outlook files that clog the list of search results. I thought I had found a clever solution.
It seems that Spotlight must be allowed to index that folder. Otherwise, Outlook 2011 won't show my Tasks. I closed Outlook, went back to Spotlight prefs, removed that User Data folder from the Privacy list, and my tasks reappeared when I restarted Outlook. Only took a minute or two. Same problem today, got it working when I Setup the account under the Exchange option For me, manually configured IMAP would only work for emails. I don't know if only emails are included under IMAP or maybe I missed a configuration setting. In outlook things just wouldn't appear even after showing in progress window and in Mac Mail tasks/contacts/etc would result in 'Retrieval using the IMAP4 protocol failed for the following message'.
