Method 4: For those who want to sync everything: contacts, calendar, reminders and notes -- use AkrutoSync (akruto.com). When Apple iOS 9 broke notes sync for good, I had to look for another way to do it. Besides, I had enough of iTunes sync not working. I didn't want to use iCloud since I prefer to keep my information on my computer. Came across Akruto and works great.

That worked for my iPone 6S when I was trying to sync it with my Outlook 2013. For those trying the same here's the direct link for the iOS devices.
