In Outlook, make a sub-folder underneath the main contacts folder and keep a copy of your 'Contacts' in that - and don't sync it. That way if there is any issue you have a copy and don't have to do any tedious backup recovery. And you do have a backup schedule don't you?????

First sync: download Outlook to phone - and make sure your time/timezone etc are correct on both your PC and phone first.
If a new phone and you haven't used the calendar yet use the phone to 'add' a dummy event before syncing. There was an Android issue that meant that you had to do this or no syncing would take place. It could well have been fixed by now though.
And sync over wifi, much less hassle. Set MPE up on the phone to come on automatically when your home wifi is connected.
