Outlook for Mac is an email client that is included with the Microsoft Office for Mac software package.
There is no Zimbra Outlook Connector for the Mac version of Outlook so you are unable to sync your Zimbra calendar to Outlook. If you use a desktop client to access your Zimbra email and calendar, consider using one of the recommended clients on the Supported Email Desktop Programs page.
