What is the best way to sync my outlook 2003 with iphone.
1. Download and install Leawo iTransfer
Plug iPhone to computer via USB cable. Go to www.leawo.org/itransfer to download and install Leawo iTransfer. The software is able to automatically detect iPhone and display different kinds of categories in the left sidebar. In the right interface, you can see some basic iPhone information like type, capability, version, serial number and so on.
2. Add Outlook contacts
In the left sidebar, click on the name of iPhone and choose "LIBRARY", then go to "Contacts" and a list of iPhone contacts shows up in the right interface. Now click the icon "Import" at top middle to add Outlook contacts from your computer. A percentage of the transfer will indicate the process. Within a few seconds, your iPhone gets Outlook contacts.
3. Sync Outlook contacts with iCloud
Now you need to sync iPhone contacts with iCloud. In this way, your iCloud will obtain Outlook contacts. Go to the "Settings" app and navigate to "Apple ID > iCloud". Scroll down and locate "Contacts". Toggle it on, then you will see the sider become green, which means iCloud contacts sync is activated. One thing you need to know is that only when your iPhone connect to Wi-Fi does your iPhone start to sync information with iCloud.

You didn't say whether you're trying to sync everything (mail, calendars, contacts) or just some things or one thing (like contacts only). I don't know if you're using an Exchange server or even if you have the info you'll need to sync with an Exchange server.
I have a Windows mobile device (AT&T Tilt) running Outlook 2007 and everything is sync'd. We also started purchasing the iphone for our employees and sync their email, calendar and contacts to their phone.
I could probably give you step-by-step information (based on how I do this for my users at work) if I knew whether you'll use iTunes to do this or Exchange Active Sync and what you want to sync between your phone and outlook. One method (iTunes) will only update your data between Otulook and the phone when you connect it to the computer with Outlook configured on it but, the way we do it at work, they receive email, data, changes, etc in real time.
Try using this link http://www.apple.com/support/iphone/mail/
What you will find here is support topics and instructions for Exchange Active Sync, setting up email accounts, troubleshooting for contact and calendar syncing.
You can also search support on Apple's Web site. Entering the keywords: iphone outlook 2003 will bring up a lot of support info.
You can use iTunes or MobileMe for synchronization. If using iTunes then try this:
You can configure which items are synchronized during a one time set up process. After initial set up, each time you connect the iphone to your computer, the changes made on your computer or device are synchronized.
6. Click Apply.
Hope this helps!
