Need iPhone & Outlook 2013 Sync

I'm ready to switch from an Android device to an iPhone, but first I need assurance that I can sync (two-way) the following with my Windows 7-based Outlook 2013 (the desktop app, not the cloud service that Microsoft offers):

• Calendar
• People
• Tasks
• Notes

I do not need to sync mail. The sync can be either wired (network and/or WiFi) and/or USB.

I've searched these forums for an answer, but about the time I think I have one, I get a conflicting post. HELP!

 

Asked and Answered

I stoped by a huge Apple store in the local mall today and talked with a guy who seems to know stuff. He recommended this website:

http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/pc.html

and showed me some setup hints on his iPhone, whereby I can choose what I wanted to sync (for example, I don't want to sync Email) and how to turn sync on or off for various things.

Apparently, I need an iCloud account before I can do anything, so the next stop is the T-Mobile store to get the iPhone 5s.

 

Pop3

My Email interface is a POP3 account with my internet provider (carrier). It is not Exchange, and not outlook.com. I've purchased the two iPhone 5s's, and walked away from Verizon and Android, and gone over to T-Mobile. Only one phone will be synced. The other, for my spouse, is for voice telephone and texting only.

I'll not get my 32GB 5s until Thursday (1/16/2014), and will advise if I have trouble setting up the iCloud link.

 

QUESTION: Is iCloud part of iTunes, and expansion of iTunes? What is the relationship?
