Fix for Bolded Dates in Outlook 2010 Shared Calendars

Is there a fix for seeing bolded dates in navigation calendars for shared calendars In Outlook 2010 (when appts have been made on certain dates) as was the case in Office 2003?
Looks like in 2011 someone posted on the forum that it was being looked into, but has there been a fix? It's now two years later? I had put this on the Exchange forum, and they said to put it on the Office/Outlook forum. I've seen it both
places, but no answers yet. Trying here now as suggested.
Thank you!

Hi,
I can reproduce this on my Outlook 2010. It displays the same for shared calendars on Outlook 2013, so far I'd say it's by design rather than a bug.

IPhone 4S Outlook 2010 shared Calendar problem

Hello all,
There problem to see in Outlook 2010 shared calendar in iPhone 4S. In iPhone 4S there is seen owner calendar of added Exchange Server account, but I need to see other one person shared calendar which is impossible to see. I see in iPhone 4S two calendars as added, but when I open calendar I see entries only for one account.
Where is problem and how to solve it?
Thanks.
Best Regards,
Girts

I had the same problem where I could open a shared calendar in OWA but it would not work in Outlook 2010. When I clicked on the shared folder I got the error message 'outlook cannot open this folder'. The problem ended up being that the person
whose calendar was being shared was hidden on the exchange server ('hide from exchange address lists' had been selected). To resolve the issue we had to unhide the user, update the OAB on the server and then update the OAB on the desktop. We could then share
the calendar, accept the share and then hide the user again.
Sounds like I have the same issue too. Where do I go to do all the resolve part? Where do I unhide the user? I am guessing OAB means offline address book.
Thanks
Paul

Outlook 2010 shared calendars

I work at Pensacola State College. We recently upgraded our Exchange servers to 2013. Our staff is using Outlook 2010. We have about a half dozen calendars that are shared among our admin staff of about 10 people (resources, not individual
users shared calendars). My problem is I have 2 users who continually lose their edit permissions on only 3 of those shared calendars. The other shared calendars have no issues,everyone that has permission can add/delete, etc. But
on the other 3 calendars in question at least 3-4 times a week 2 users (only) lose tha ability to make changes to these calendars. I can delete the calendars and reconnect to them and for the next day or 2 they work fine and then deja vu. I have checked these
2 users' settings with others in the department and they are identical. One night I asked one of the users that was having the issue to not shutdown or log off her PC, leave keep Outlook open and simply lock the PC. When she came in next morning and unlocked
her PC with Outlook still open she could not edit any of the 3 calendars in question (delete, re-add, problem gone). One moring when one of the users called I took a laptop with a clean image and Office 2013 on it. Had her login and she still had the
same problem; could not edit any of the 3 calendars. Deleted them, readded, worked fine. This user works for the president; suggestions please??

Hi,
According to your description, I understand that there are 2 users always losing Editor permission for 3 shared calendars. Is there any error message or error logs when the issue occurs? Please collect it for further analysis.
Please confirm whether the problematic users still have Editor permission to these 3 shared calendars when the issue occurs. We can try to remove the Editor permission for 2 problematic users then re-add it to check whether the issue persists. If there is
any activesync device, please also disable it.
Generally, to prevent incorrect or missing meeting information, it is recommended to limit the number of delegates with Editor permissions. For more information about best practices when using the Outlook Calendar, please refer to:

Outlook 2010 - Shared Calendar Issue - "No Connection"

I'm experiencing problems with Shared Calendars in Outlook 2010 as well as when creating a new meeting request.
When I try to open a shared calendar it shows the following error message: "no connection".
My co-workers and hundreds of different users are not facing the same problem.
Does anyone have any idea how to fix that? (We are all using the same Exchange Server 2010)

Outlook 2010 shared calendar just says updating

This just started happening a day or two ago.
I used to be able to see other team mates calendars, and make meeting room appointments.
Now , when I look at a college's calendar, I just see "updating", when I try to make a meeting with a room request, I get a pop up saying, "Cannot directly book a resource for this meeting", so I can't
see calendars, and can't schedule a meeting in a room.

Hi,
Here are several steps that you can try to fix this issue.
1. Run Outlook with the switch /cleanfreebusy, which will clear and regenerate free/busy information. check if this helps:
Press Win key + R and type “outlook.exe /cleanfreebusy” in the blank box, then press Enter.
2. Have the owner of the calendar change the Permissions, if "Reviewer" doesn't help, try with a higher level.
3. Switch between Cached Exchange Mode and Online Mode, check if this makes a difference:
http://office.microsoft.com/en-001/outlook-help/turn-on-or-off-cached-exchange-mode-HP010355560.aspx
4. If none of the steps above helps, we can try to re-seup the account with a new Outlook Profile:

Please let me know if this is helpful and keep me updated.

Outlook 2010/Shared calendar showing as busy/no detail

Hi, user has editor access to another user's calendar yet only free/busy information is showing.
The primary user's profile also has a second exchange account on it. Thought this account might be limiting things so gave it editor access as well. Still, only busy information is shown on calendar.
Anything else to check? Thanks in advance-

Hi,
Create a new Outlook profile for the user to test the issue again.
1. Exit Outlook.
2. Go to Start > Control Panel, click or double-click Mail.
3. Click Show Profiles. Choose Prompt for a profile to be used.
4. Click Add.
5. Type a name for the profile, and then click OK.
6. Highlight the profile, and choose Properties. Then Email Accounts.., add your email account in the profile.
7. Start Outlook, and choose this new profile.
If this problem does not occur in the new Outlook profile, the old Outlook is corrupted. We can delete that and use a new Outlook profile.

I purchased a new Windows 8 PC. I have used and continue to use Outlook 2010 for my calendar. With my old Windows 7 PC and Outlook 2010, my calendar sinked properly with my Iphone 5. Now with the new Windows 8 PC, it does not. Help!

I purchased a new Windows 8 PC and I use Outlook 2010 for my calendar. With my old Windows 7 PC and Outlook 2010, my calendar would sync with my Iphone 5, but with the new Windows 8 PC and Outlook 2010, it does not, and I can't figure out how to snyc them. The emails from Outlook 2010 sync, but the calendar does not. Help! Thanks.

Easy solution for restoring lost calendar informaiton, thank goodness. On your iPhone, go to settings, then to iCloud. If your Calendar selection is turned off, turn it on. Your info should restore. If your Calendar selection is turned on, then turn it off. Choose to save calendars when asked. After it shuts the Calendar off, turn it back on. Your info should be restored.
Thank you to Apple support for walking me through this. Shame on you Apple for not just telling people about this easy fix rather than making us go through all of this pain and worry.

How to Read Outlook Exchange Shared Calendars on iPhone?

My company uses microsoft outlook exchange and I have been using iphone syncing with this outlook exchange calendar. Besides my own calendar, on the outlook exchange, I have access to another shared calendar. I want to be able to read this shared calendar on my iPhone but cannot figure out how to do it. Previously I learned from other postings that iPhone doesn't support it.
The new OS 3.0 support CalDav and I am wondering if this will enable me to read the shared calendars of my outlook exchange on my iPhone. Does anybody know how to do it? If the current firmware solely doesn't support it, might there are other ways to do it with supports of other apps? How about through Google Calendar? Or there are any apps can automatically copy the contents in the outlook exchange shared calendars to my outlook exchange calendar?
Does anybody have solutions? Many thanks!

The shared MS Exchange calendar is ICS format which SHOULD be able to be added as "Add Subscribed Calendar" in the Settings/Mail, Contacts, Calendars/Add Account/Other screens on the iPhone.
I'm tring to add a 2nd Exchange Outlook calendar only and need it to sync over the air.
Just can't find the correct way to get it entered to work? The link sent by Outlook (I'm running 2007) when you send the invite doesn't work and copy/paste to the server name is also a bust. Have tried direct copy paste, cutting off the webcal:// prefix, etc. Just won't authenticate.
No documentation that I can find on either Apple or MS site to validate the exact syntax required.
I can hit the https link provided by MS on my Safari iPhone browser after entering my MS Online ID and access the calendar online. And yes tried several of MS Online IDs that I have as UID/PW in the iPhone config screens without success.
A little more info on my config.
3gs 32mb
Have exchange acct as primary email with email contacts and calendar working
Have CalDAV link to my wife's Google calendar working
Have several other subscribed calendars (ics) working: US Holidays, AmericanHistory.com, and my TripIt profile.
I DO NOT want to use MobileMe to make this work. Life would be so easy if iPhone would just support multiple Exchange accts!
Funny thing I just noticed...spell check on forum IDs "iPhone" and "MobileMe" lol

Outlook 2010 shared mailbox in cache mode not updating Inbox automatically

I have a user who has XP on his desktop, running Outlook 2010, connecting to a Exchange 2010 w/SP2. I recently added a shared mailbox for him to monitor. I did it the old way by adding additional mailbox to his client (outlook 2010) pc.. I understand
now that in 2010 SP1 or greater that you can simply do this from the exchange server by granting full access permissions. Either way, the user sees the mailbox and gets email in the shared mailbox ONLY when he clicks on the inbox and
clicks on Update Folder. For some reason it is not auto updating new email. His personal account works fine, meaning when a new email is received it comes in and you see new mail. The account is in cache mode and I've looked at other shared
mailboxs that are working fine and the settings look the same? I'm not sure why this shared mailbox is not updating?
William McConnell

I can see this is an old thread but I have a relevant question.
This workaround does indeed work but what else is possible to do? The cashed mode is more or less necessary when working with large shared mailboxes.

Verifying Data Integrity Outlook 2010

Hi,
We are using Microsoft SBS2011 including Exchange 2010
one of users could not start his Outlook 2010. the screen shows "Verifying Data Integrity" which takes hours.

Outlook 2010 Shared Mailbox Outbox Send Immediately Issue

Hello,
So we have a weird problem tat we have being trying to diagnose for a while and I think that I have finally got to the bottom of the problem, just now need to find a solution.
We have a shared email email account. This is set up as shared mailbox in exchange (2010) with Full Control and Send On behalf of privileges given to three users. Each of these users has added this shared mailbox
as a second account to their outlook (2010) profile.
The Problem we have appears to be two fold. For some reason emails are not sent immediately for this account even though this is value of the setting in outlook. This puts an email in the shared mailbox outbox. We then have a race condition where by the
first user of the shared mailbox whose outlook client does a send an receive first becomes the user who sent the email on behalf of the shared inbox rather than the user that hit sent. This has caused mild confusion for the recipients as signatures of the
email does not match what outlook is displaying.
So, firstly is this expected behaviour for shared accounts, that the outbox is shared so this race condition will always exists?Secondly, any idea why on this second mailbox attached to outlook emails are not always sent immediately? In fact this appears
to be a bigger problem, email not getting sent until people hit send and receive has just happened to someone else. What can I do to diagnose this issue?
Cheers
Rich

Hi,
Based on the description above, the issue is that when you send an email message from a shared mailbox, the sent email message remains in your Outbox until you manually perform a Send/Receive operation.
As far as I know, this problem occurs when both the following conditions are true:
Your Outlook profile is configured in online mode (not cached Exchange mode).
You have the DelegateSentItemsStyle registry value set to
1.
If you are using Online Mode, please switch to Cached Exchange Mode to check the result, if the issue doesn't occur then, please note there is no resolution to this problem other than to either switch your profile to cached Exchange mode or set the DelegateSentItemsStyle
registry value to zero (0). Additionally, if your mailbox is located on Microsoft Exchange Server 2010 (or later), the Exchange administrator can configure similar behavior on the server.
Important
Follow the steps in this section carefully. Serious problems might occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Before you modify it,
back up the registry for restoration in
case problems occur.
To change the value of DelegateSentItemsStyle to 0 in the registry, follow these steps:
Exit Outlook.
Start Registry Editor.
In Windows 8 and Windows 8.1
Swipe in from the right to open the charms, tap or click Search, and then type
regedit.exe in the search box. Or, type regedit.exe at the Start screen, and then tap or click
regedit in the search results.
In Windows Vista and Windows 7
Click Start, type regedit in the Start Search box, and then press Enter. If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type the password, or click
Allow.
In Windows XP
Click Start, click Run, type regedit, and then click
OK.
Locate and then select the following registry key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\<var>x</var>.0\Outlook\Preferences
Note In this key path, the placeholder <var>x</var>.0represents
15.0 for Outlook 2013, 14.0 for Outlook 2010,
12.0 for Outlook 2007, and 11.0 for Outlook 2003.
Select the DelegateSentItemsStyle value.
On the Edit menu, click Modify.
Type 0, and then click OK.
Exit Registry Editor.
Start Outlook.
More details about the issue can be found in this kb below:
Email remains in the Outbox when you use the DelegateSentItemsStyle registry value

Bold 9860 and Outlook 2010

Thinking of switching from Curve 9300 to Bold 9860 but will the new phone sync with my Outlook 2010 data?

Well, the 9860 is a torch. The 9900 is a bold, but yes, they will sync with Outlook 2010 with the current version of Desktop Manager.

Outlook Connector shared calendar lookup doesn't work for non-admins

First the version info:
JMS 6.2-8.04, Directory Server 5.2, Connector 7.2.402.1
Non-admin users are not able to retrieve a list of users from the GAL with Outlook Connector. I, as an admin, do get the list. Here is the the access log for a non-admin user. Note that in the RESULT, nentries is always zero.

Next, I followed the steps outlined in http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/819-5200/gbnse?l=en&a=view&q=shared+calendar+ldap+lookup.
I set service.wcap.userprefs.ldapproxyauth = "yes"
I have the ACI entries as specified in that document.
(targetattr = "mail || uid || icsCalendar || givenName || sn || cn")
(targetfilter = (|(objectClass=icscalendaruser)(objectClass=icscalendarresource)))
(version 3.0;acl "Allow Calendar administrators to proxy - product=ics,class=admin,num=2,version=1";
allow (proxy)(groupdn = "ldap:///cn=Calendar Administrators, ou=Groups, o=cp");)
(targetattr = "mail || uid || icsCalendar || givenName || sn || cn")
(targetfilter = (|(objectClass=icscalendaruser)(objectClass=icscalendarresource)))

acl "Allow Calendar users to read and search other users - product=ics,class=admin,num=3,version=1";
allow (read,search)
(userdn = "ldap:///uid=*,ou=People,o=pcc.edu,o=cp")
The only oddity I see is that the ACI entries are not passed down to the next directory levels.
Any thoughts?
David.

I reviewed the document and I believe the VLV browsing indexes are setup and functional. I've also checked the ACI entries and they look correct. (The document doesn't mention the ACI entries for proxy authentication.) As I said, an admin user can retrieve names from the GAL, a non-admin user cannot. The only difference in the access log is the returned nentries value.

Windows XP Machines Always Prompt for Credentials (Exchange 2013, Outlook 2010)

I am running Exchange 2013 on Server 2012 Datacenter (VM). Windows 7 clients with Outlook 2010 work fine. Windows XP clients with Outlook 2010 prompt for credentials (user name and password) each time Outlook is started, and checking the "Remember
my password" box does not prevent this from happening the next time. The "Always prompt for logon credentials" checkbox on the "Security" tab of the "More Settings" section of the Exchange account is not checked. I have found a myriad of posts
with similar issues, but they all seem to have to do with SBS/Exchange 2007, and I haven't come across something that works as a solution for me. One suggested certificate issues, and I was having certificate security warnings, but I got that resolved.
I am hopefuly that the fact that this only happens on Windows XP will be telling.
