Access shared calendars on exchange 2007

I'm trying to access shared Exchange calendars on my iphone and I cant see how to do this. Does anyone know how to do this? If i require a 3rd party app to do this, can anyone recomend one please?
I can see the shared calendars on outlook 2010 and I would expect to see them in the calendar list on my iphone.
Thanks

Thanks, russcus, you've brought me one step closer to figuring out how to use Snow Leopard and Exchange 2007 together. As we're on the topic here, I need to take a moment to voice why Apple's implementation is very disappointing.
Of your 3 suggestions, #1 should just be working out of the box. iCal should be able to see these calendars- Entourage can. As long as others in the organization have Calendar: Properties: Permissions: "default" set to "reviewer", they've granted read privileges to everyone else in the organization. Pulling up a view of another's calendar is as simple as "Open Other User's Folder", enter email address, verify, use. It's a rare and sad day when I wish Apple's software just worked as well as Microsoft's.
While #2 and #3 will work (I verified only #3), it's far more effort on the calendar owner's part. Everyone who might need calendar privileges must be managed separately, vs the wholesale organization-wide granting Entourage can do. This is a unneeded overhead that causes complication whenever staff changes.
Additionally, the scheduling assistant is less useful than in Entourage. In iCal, the availability of others is boiled down to only free or busy. In Entourage, a mouseover of an event in the Scheduling view provides event title and location data (as long as the event isn't flagged as private). My staff won't like loosing the ability to answer the question "exactly what is user X busy with at this time?" if we were to move to iCal.
If I'm misunderstanding something, please let me know. I'd prefer to not be right on these observations, as they're going to be problems in leaving Entourage for the Apple native suite of apps.
Regarding public folders- they are on Microsoft's list of discontinued features:

I'm just speculating, but I doubt Apple put development efforts into supporting a feature that's on the way out.

Shared Calendar Interoperability (2013 / 2007)

Hello,
We have two Exchange servers in our Organization, a 2007 where most mailboxes reside, and a 2013 where we are slowly doing a one off user migration here and there to test the waters so to speak.
We have users that constantly have/had problems with Outlook freezing on send, or other connectivity issues. These are our first target people to move to the new server. I have one user who I moved yesterday who is trying to share a calendar
she calls "Managers Schedules" to other managers. She created this calendar and keep in mind she is on the 2013 server now. She shared it with reviewer permissions to 4 other employees but those 4 others are still on the 2007 server.
The other people are getting an email with links to view the calendar but they say that they cannot open it. The person sending this is also getting a message that they should publish the calendar. When they click yes to that, IE opens up
to Outlook Web Access???? I said lets just see what happens if you log into OWA. She did and it gave her some options to make the calendar public or private and it gave her two links to copy. Now I was able to open the one link... it downloaded
an ical file, however I am on the 2013 server. No one else can open the links.
So long story short, is there any kind of interoperability between shared calendars on Exchange 2007 and 2013 (vice versa)? Or am I going to have to move these 4 other users to the new server, which in turn will likely cause a chain reaction since
they are managers and have access to their employees email inboxes as additional mailboxes in Outlook.

Hi,
We can’t directly share the calendar which is not the default calendar for a user. Generally, we would share a custom calendar by the following steps:
Right-click the custom Calendar, click Share > E-mail Calendar. Then the calendar would be added as an attachment in a message.
When the recipients receive the message, click Open this Calendar, a window would be prompted out to ask if add this Internet Calendar to Outlook. You should only open Calendars from sources you know and trust.
Please e-mail calendar in Outlook Online mode by the steps above. Then check whether the issue persists.

Will CF9 cfexchangecalendar access public calendars in Exchange Server 2007?

We need to create something in CF9 that will allow us to access public calendars in Exchange Server 2007. I've Googled it but only come up with dead ends. Any help would be appreciated.

I ran into the same situation recently, and found out that you need to make sure InternalClientsRequireSSL is set to false.
To verify: Run Get-OutlookAnywhere | fl Identity, *ssl
If it is true, try setting it to false.

Problems with a shared calendar using Outlook 2007 and Exchange 2010

Hello all,
We are having a problem with sharing a calendar using Outlook 2007 and Exchange 2010.
I will start with some background. I have just started my position with this company. I have been working with networks for awhile at the small business level. I have not had much production experience with exchange. There is only myself and my supervisor
who has inherited a midsized network which was built by five previous techs that are no longer with the company. Of course, the previous techs did not leave much documentation, so the original hows and whys for our system setup has been lost.
One of the managers has a calendar she shares with some of our users. I believe this calendar has been in use since sometime in 2006. A mailbox was created to hold this calendar to keep it separate from the managers calendar. I am not sure what version
of exchange they were using at that time, but I assume there was one or two migrations of it getting to its current state on our exchange 2010 server. At some point it was observed that the other workers she was sharing with were not able to access it correctly.
I am not fully sure what the original problem was (possibly some people not being able to see or connect to the calendar), but it was decided to give everyone who needed access to this calendar full access permissions through exchange. Correct me if I
am wrong, but I believe that gave everyone connected the ability to do anything with the calendar. Of course the manager was not happy about that. This is where I started working on the problem.
I removed everyone, except the manager who wants to control the calendar, from having "Full Access Permissions". This did have the effect of making some people just able to see the calendar and not make changes. Though there were others that were
able to connect to the calendar who I thought would not be able to. The manager that originally created the calendar did try to manage access to it through the Outlook interface, though it currently does not seem to be fully in effect.
So, to get to the point of what we are trying to do, is there a way to get the original manager back into control of the calendar though Outlook? It would be preferred to be able to keep the history of what they tracked of this calendar, so starting a new
one would be something we would rather avoid. After that, getting all of the users that need to connect to the calendar reconnected with the correct access permissions and making sure they are all synchronized.
I realize this is a big mess, and your help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Nigel,
How is the impact, just one user or all users, Outlook or OWA?
If just one user, it seems like an issue on the Outlook Client side.
Please trying to re-create new profile to fresh the caches.
Please runing Outlook under safe mode to avoid some AVs, add-ins and firewall.

Unable to access public folders on Exchange 2007 when user mailbox is on Exchange 2013

Hi
I have coexistence with Exchange 2007 and Exchange 2013. I've moved a mailbox to Exchange 2013 and now cannot view the public folders on Exchange 2007. The error message I get is "could not connect to the public folder server. microsoft exchange is
not available. either there are network problems or the exchange server is down for maintenance."
Mailboxes on Exchange 2007 do not have any problems viewing public folders. I can't migrate users to Exchange 2013 until this issue is resolved.
The IIS permissions to the Public virtual directory on Exchange 2007 is set to Intergrated Windows and Basic authentication.

Hi northerly,
I recommend you follow the steps below for troubleshooting:
1. Please run the Get-OutlookAnywhere cmdlet to verify the Outlook Anywhere settings on Exchange Server 2013 Client Access servers.
2. If "ExternalHostName" is set, and "ExternalClientAuthenticationMethod" is Negotiate, change "ExternalClientAuthenticationMethod" to something other than Negotiate.
3. If "InternaClientlAuthenticationMethod" is set to Negotiate, and "InternalRequireSSL" is True, change "InternalClientAuthenticationMethod" to something other than Negotiate, or change "InternalRequireSSL" to False.
What's more, here is a helpful KB for your reference.
Users of Exchange Server 2013 or Exchange Online can't open public folders or shared mailboxes on an Exchange 2010 or Exchange 2007 server

Outlook 2010 SP2 - Error when editing shared calendar: Post Exchange 2013 CU2 Migration

Hi there,
I have a strange comportment with Outlook 2010 SP2 and Exchange 2013 CU2 and i really need your help.
Frequently, when an user (who has the good permissions for) want to edit a shared calendar (edit a meeting or add one), he has this error message:
" Cannot display the folder. Your server administrator has limited the number of items you can open simultaneously. Try closing message you have opened or removing attachments and images from unsent messages you are composing "
I see anything in the Exchange server event log but i have each time, an error message in the client event log:
" Microsoft Office14 Alerts ID 300"
Everything work very well with Outlook 2013.
Many thanks in advance for your assistance, and I am looking forward to reading from you.

Hi,
According to your description, the issue is related to your Office 2010 client.
And the issue can be resolved by installing the Microsoft Office 2010 Deployment Kit.
Here are the steps you can refer to :
1. Open a command prompt with administrative permissions.
2. Browse to the directory that contains the Offvirt.msi.
3. At the command prompt, run the following command:
msiexec /i OffVirt.msi [licensing flags]
You must enter a correct licensing flag in the following list to correctly configure the Deployment Kit. Otherwise, functionality may be incorrect.

Calendar Location Exchange 2007

The calendar application allows you to enter a location and send an update. The meeting room then responds if it's available or not. In entourage you could view the status of the room and invitees by clicking on scheduling. How does this work in snow leopard?
My location displays a busy sign when i've completed typing it was it meant to show available if so
is it working correctly in my environment how would I check? Is something not configured on the exchange server?
The problem is the location feature is useless if it doesn't show availability when booking the room.

Once you've entered the resource name in the location field, you can open Window>Availability Panel from the application menus. (shortcut Shift-command-A). It should show your location resource availability.

E71 unable to sync Calendar with Exchange 2007

I updated my MfE client from 2.04 to 2.09.158 but that did not help. When I look at my admin log file, I see these messages:
failed to create Calendar sync command (error=-1)
Mail For Exchange Error -15000
Mail For Exchange Error -15000
When I am trying to sync the phone, it simply says: System Error. Please try again later.
I tried the trick where you set your date/time on the phone off into the distant future, and then delete all calendar events from before that date, and then set the current date back and run Synchronize, but it didn't make a difference.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Hal

I seem to be having a similar problem, calendar initially synced up, but after a while though I do get the invite mails but they dont get updated to calendar even if I accept them. I am running mfe 2.0.7. Any inputs would be appreciated.
thanks

Outlook 2007 Shared calendars problem

Hi,
We are having a problem with shared calendars in outlook 2007. A colleague went on holiday for two weeks and whilst he was away, he was seeing people accepting new meeting times sent by the PAs but despite being an invitee he wasnt recieving invites and
his calendar didn't update.
His calendar is shared with the PA, and she changes his appointments as and when required. Until this week, this worked no problem. Now, when she changes events on his calendar, he doesn't see the change, even when re-synched it shows no different.
Occasionally, he will create an event himself - he did this today to show me - he created the meeting, invited the board, they all accepted, and then voila, the event was in the board's calendar (showing as HIS event) but wasn't in his calendar at all.
I'm alright at email and exchange but I don't use and know nothing about outlook calendars (I'm still a strong believer in the Filofax ;))
Please help!
Jak

So sorry -- I shut down Outlook and restarted it to find that both add-ins were now present, and everything seems to be working. Unfortunately, I don't know how to delete this thread.

User calendar sharing problem on Exchange 2013 & 2010 co-existence

Recently, I am trying to upgrade my site to Exchange 2013 from 2010. Most of the functions are work without problem except 2013 mailbox user try to access the sharing calendar on Exchange 2010 mailbox server.
e.g. User A is exchange 2010 mailbox user
user create a calendar 'testing' and sharing with user B
who is exchange 2013 mailbox user when user B try to add the calendar in OWA, user B get
'The action couldn't be completed.
An error occurred and your request couldn't be completed. If the problem continuesm contact your helpdesk with this HTTP Status code: 500.'
Actually, the error is 'The Client Access server version doesn't match the Mailbox server version of the resource that was being accessed. To determine the correct URL to use to access the resource, use Autodiscover with the address of the resource.'
But there are no problem if user A sharing his own calendar. User B could add it without problem.

user B can access the calendar from outlook ? if its still not working from outlook please try to repair outlook profile and check
Regards
John
Thanks for your reply. However, user B could not add the calendar in OWA 2013. I think, it doesn't related to outlook profile.

Getting error when using the option "Open Shared Calendar"

Hello Everyone,
I have created four calendars for our office all of them for booking meeting rooms.
Three of the four work just fine but the fourth is being a pain.
I'm running Exchange 2010 and all our clients are running Outlook 2007. I have re-created
the meeting room a couple of times just to make sure I hadn't missed anything.
When I, or another staff memeber tries to use the "Open a Shared Calendar"
withing Outlook 2007 in Calendar view, we get the below error.
Cannot display the folder. Microsoft Exchange is not available. Either there are
network problems or the Exchanges computer is down for maintenance.
Any ideas why I'm getting this error?
Thanks,
Sean

Hi Sean,
Could you please check the conference room type,whether it is an Auto Accept or Delegate Type.
checking the conference room type :
Get-CalendarProcessing conference room| fl *policy*
you may get the below results:
>Get-CalendarProcessing conferenceroom name| fl *policy*
RequestOutOfPolicy : {}
AllRequestOutOfPolicy : False
BookInPolicy : {}
AllBookInPolicy : True
RequestInPolicy : {}
AllRequestInPolicy : True
If "AllBookInPolicy : True" it mean it is an Auto Accept type and if "AllBookInPolicy : False" then it is Delegate type conference room.
If it is an Auto accept type then you should have Editor access on the concern room calendar to manage it and the same time if the room is an Delegate type you suppose to have Delegate access over the room.
To check whether you have permissions to access the room calendar.

Outlook 2007 denied calendar access when shared by other outlook 2007 users....

i have exchange 2010 with latest sp. we use outlook 2013/2010/2007 on windows os's vista through 8.1. Calendar sharing via setting explicit permissions in outlook 2010/2013 works fine. in outlook, select calendars, right click calendar, set explicit permissions
for user you want to share calendar with to Free/busy/subject/location. works ok for 2010 and 2013. However Outlook 2007 client does same and the other outlook 2007 intended recipient gets "you dont have permission to access xxxx calendar. DO you want
to send a request?" WHen you send a request you are automatically granted "Reviewer" permission to the mailbox. Our staff dont want to give that much detail. Is this a bug or config error? I expected to set the permissions on a users calendar
to a mailgroup and share it using the free/busy/subject/location permission set. SO i was surprised to see this didn't work and generated the permission error + request permission email. any ideas would be appreciated.
The main reason to share this way is to avoid giving reviewer permission to everyone you share with.
Also please note that an Outlook 2013 user who uses the method above to set permissions for groups will have other outlook 2013 users view his calendar based on the permissions set. Outlook 2007 clients still get permission denied...do you want to request
permission...
After more testing I found that upgrading to outlook 2010 seems to work. I would prefer to avoid the cost of the upgrade if possible however it seems that Outlook 2010 works correctly and Outlook 2007 does not.

Hi,
My understanding is that no matter the calendar owner shares the calendar via Outlook 2013 or Outlook 2007, the Outlook 2007 recipient can't open the calendar and receive the message to send a request, am I correct? If yes, please let me explain.
In short, it is by design in Outlook 2007. In Outlook 2007 with Exchange 2007(and later), the "Free/Busy time" and "Free/Busy time, subject, location" permissions only apply when checking the user's free/busy information (for example,
when looking in the Scheduling tab of a meeting request) and not when looking in another user's Calendar folder.
To workaround this issue, when sharing the calendar in Outlook, please add "Folder visible". Thus the Outlook 2007 recipients should be able to open the shared calendar.
