MyIIT _{portal at least once, to accept Google's Terms and Conditions.}

 Go to the Google Apps Sync download page and click the big download button to download and install Google Apps Sync.

Creating your Google Apps profile for Outlook, and importing data 2. Create your profile & import data

Next, you're prompted to create a Google Apps profile for use in

Outlook. This step is also where you can import data from your existing Outlook profile to your Google Apps account. You can also skip

importing for now and import later instead.

 To import your old data now, check Import data from an existing

profile. (the default Outlook profile is simply called Outlook) If

instead you've exported your data from Outlook to a PST file,

 Specify what to import (just check each appropriate box). To speed up

your import, uncheck Deleted messages and Junk email, as you probably don't need any of these messages.

 Turn AutoArchive off (click Show advanced settings): Outlook's

AutoArchive feature removes old email from Google Apps and stores it in a separate file on your computer that isn't synchronized with your Google account in the cloud. To instead keep a copy of all your

archived messages with your Google account, place messages you want to archive in your Google Apps Archived folder.

 Click Create Profile to continue.

You're almost done—you just need to wait for importing to begin and start Outlook... 3. Monitor your migration

(If you didn't choose to import data, skip ahead to Start Outlook)

What to expect during migration

Depending on how much mail and other data you have, it might take several hours for all of it to import (although you can start Outlook and begin to work in your Google Apps account right away).  Pausing a migration

To temporarily halt importing, click Pause Migration. Click Resume

Migration to continue importing from where you left off.

 Restarting a migration

If your import is interrupted and you need to run the migration again (say, if you click Cancel or if you have to shut down your computer), simply rerun the wizard. To avoid importing duplicate contacts, select the option to Migrate only new data.

While you're waiting for your migration to finish, go ahead and start Outlook.... 4. Start using Microsoft Outlook

After you create your Google Apps profile, a window appears where you can start Microsoft Outlook, then synchronize with the cloud to begin using Google Apps.

 Click Start Microsoft Outlook to start Outlook. (You can do this even

 You likely have Outlook profiles other than the Google Apps profile you

just created), Outlook prompts you to select which profile to open. Be

sure to choose your Google Apps profile to begin using your new

account. (To later access your old Outlook profile, just restart Outlook and choose your old profile, instead.)

 As soon as Outlook opens your Google Apps profile, Google Apps Sync begins synchronizing with your Google Apps account in the cloud. Be patient when importing. It might be a few minutes before any data appears in Outlook. Importing and the initial synchronization, moreover, can take up to 24 hours or more to complete

You're now ready to use your new Google Apps account—from either Outlook or the Google Apps web interface! For tips on what to do next, see get started
