    Legacy Microsoft Outlook for Mac Support will end in Oct 2025

    The url means it is set up as an exchange account. Everything in the mailbox is on the server. Anything in On My Computer folders is only stored on the computer. It can be exported to an olm file but new Outlook for mac will import the On My Computer folders.

    Missing categories in Outlook calendar

    Yes, you can switch to POP but will need to use 2-step verification and an app password to add it to outlook. If you use your old pst, you'll have your categories and everything as they were before switching to imap. You won't lose anything making the switch, unless you started sorting mail...

    Can you post a screenshot? Tentative will use pinkish color - it used to be solid, pale pink. Is now latticed. Busy will use category color if one is assigned, otherwise calendar color.

    Did you try creating an event to see if the itemadd macro ran? The 'start up' indicates the auto start is working, so the second part should be working.
