Hi Karen Mansell,
Thank you for vesting Microsoft Community, we are glad to assist you here.
Based on your post, we understand you are having issue with you iCloud mailbox in Outlook.
To address this issue, kindly try below suggestions:
- Create an Outlook profile - Microsoft Support and configure your account there
- Change ‘AllowUnregisteredMapiServices’ Registry Value to 1
- Press Windows + R to launch the Run application. Type “regedit” in the dialogue box and press Enter. This will launch the Registry Editor of your computer.
2. Once in the registry editor, navigate to the following path using the navigation pane present at the left side of the screen:
*HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Outlook\Security*
- Here you will find a DWORD named as “AllowUnregisteredMapiServices”. Double-click it to change its value. If there was no this key, please manually create it. Then please restart your computer.

However, if you need more assist, you can also submit a support ticket from M365 admin center, the resource there would have chance to work with you remotely. Here are the steps for your reference:
