Disable Exchange Calendar in Outlook 2013

Is there any way that I can disable a calendar for an Exchange account in Outlook?  The problem is that I use one Exchange calendar for all my appointments.  I have two separate Exchange accounts though for email (personal and business).  Periodically
when I create an appointment in Outlook, it creates the appointment in the wrong Exchange calendar so I'd like to disable that one.

Firstly, if you want your appointment goes to a specific calendar, you should select any of the folder under that Exchange account in Outlook navigation panel, then start creating your appointment. In this case, the appointment will be created in right Exchange
calendar.
Also, you can set a registry value to always force the use of the default account. To force using the default email account, regardless of which pst file you are viewing, browse to the following registry subkey in outlook 2013 and add a DWORD named NewItemsUseDefaultSendingAccount:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Outlook\Options\Mail
DWORD value: NewItemsUseDefaultSendingAccount
Value: 1

  • Cannot connect to an Exchange account in Outlook 2013 using "Microsoft Exchange Server or Compatible Service"

    Dear All,
    I cannot connect to my Exchange account in Outlook 2013 using "Microsoft Exchange Server or Compatible Service".
    First I would like to present my network environment, I have 4 physical servers;
    The first one is holding the Domain Controller 1, IP@: 192.168.1.10
    The second server is holding the additional Domain Controller which it is DC2, IP@: 192.168.1.11
    The third server is holding the Exchange 2013 Mailbox, IP@: 192.168.1.15
    And the last server is holding the Exchange 2013 CAS-HT, IP@: 192.168.1.16
    I am doing the steps below:
    1-Creating a new profile in outlook and start configuring the exchange account by entering the IP address of the Exchange-CAS Server, 192.168.1.16
    2-entering the account name: [email protected]
    3-Go to "More Settings" > "Connection" > "Connect to Microsoft Exchange using HTTP" > and entering the "Exchange Proxy Settings"
    4-type the exchange CAS Server URL, https://192.168.1.16
    5-Check the "Connect using SSL Only"
    6-Authentication Settings: "NTLM Authentication", and pressing Apply
    7-When I press the "Check Name" button, a message occurred> "The action cannot be completed. The connection to Microsoft Exchange is unavailable. Outlook must be online or connected to complete this action".
    8-I go back to the "Exchange Proxy Settings" and I Uncheck the "Connect using SSL Only" and pressing Apply
    9-i press the "Check Name" Button, a small window occurred to enter a Username and Password, so I enter the Administrator username and the administrator password and pressing "OK", but nothing is changed, I tried to enter my
    username and password in the small window and I still got the same result.
    I cannot verify the account name and I cannot complete the process.
    I appreciate you kind assistance.

    Hi,
    To narrow down the cause, I’d like to recommend the following troubleshooting:
    1. Try to login the test account through OWA.
    2. Check the Autodiscover settings: get-clientaccessserver |fl autodiscoverserviceinternaluri
    3. Check the result of directly accessing the following URL:
    https://autodiscover.domain.com/autodiscover/autodiscover.xml

  • Can' add Exchange account to Outlook 2013

    Hi,
    We have an Exchange 2013 server which as far as I know is fully working - Outlook clients on the domain connect fine, OWA works fine and mobile devices work fine.
    However I have a problem when trying to add an Exchange account to Outlook 2013 when this computer is on another domain (separate network, separate domain, separate company).
    I assume Outlook is searching for an Exchange server which isn't there but how can I get around this?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Please try to alter the authentication method on the relevant CAS servers to Basic and test the issue. For details:

  • View private shared calendar in Outlook 2013

    I use a PC with Windows 7 and Outlook 2013.  My wife use a Macbook Pro.  We both have iCloud accounts (I use iCloud 2.1.2).  Both of our calendars appear in iCloud.  We have private shared the calendars with each other.  We both received join e-mails and joined the calendars.  She can see my calendar in iCal and on her iPhone as well as her own from iCal.  I can see her calendar and my Outlook calendar on my iPhone.  I cannot see her calendar on Outlook.  The path ahead seems to be to subscribe to an Internet Calender from Outlook but there is no path to put into the Internet Calendar path enty box.  If I make her calendar public, then a path is provided and that works.  I tried removing the public access, but I don't think that the calendar is updating.  I am reticent to make her calendar public permanently; I am not comfortable with anyone knowing where my wife is at anytime.  How do I find a webcal path to a private shared calendar on iCloud?

    I recommend that you post this in the Office 365 Exchange Online Forum:

  • Can't schedule meeting on resouce mailbox (Exchange Online) using Outlook 2013

    Hi,
    Here on my organization we use some resource mailboxes to schedule the meetings on our meeting rooms.
    There are 5 users as owners and everyone else has only Limited details on them.
    Today, on my Outlook 2010, I just open the calendar, go to the room I want. Search for an available date/time and double click (or right click and select Request New Meeting). Then it opens a new windows with the room on the "To:" box and
    I can fill the other details.
    Then I recieve an e-mail saying that my meeting is waiting for approval.
    One of the owners approve and then my meeting appears to everyone on the organization.
    No one was having problems with that... but today, using Outlook 2013, users just can't double click to send a request of a meeting. It says that the user doesn't have the rights to do it. The only way is to click on the "New Meeting" button and
    then add the room in the "To:" box.
    So... I was reading some comments about "Direct booking" not working anymore for Outlook 2013. Is it right? I mean... It's a downgrade for my point of view.
    On Outlook 2010 it works everytime (tried creating the same user account on my machine and worked like a charm).
    Today I verified that, after uninstalling and reinstalling Office 2013 on the user machine:
    On Outlook 2013 version 15.0.4433.1506 is working.
    On Outlook 2013 version 15.0.4701.1000 it's not working booking a meeting using double click.
    So is not a rights problem. Is an update problem.
    Any1?

  • Exchange 2010 and Outlook 2013

    please read my question and comments carefully before replying.
    We just upgraded to Outlook 2013 x64bit and exchange 2010. there is only one exchange server with all updates and fixes installed, and Outlook is up-to-date as well.
    User A sends a meeting request with tentative appointment to user B
    User B accepts the appointment and it shows on his calendar as tentative
    User A changes the appointment from tentative to out of the office or busy and sends update to user B
    User B receives the update and click on No Response Required
    User B's calendar does NOT change from tentative to out of the office or busy.......
    we tried OWA as well as tried this in cached mode and online mode and made no difference.
    you can see that communiation is real time between the two clients and exchange because as a test, I changed the words and client machine immediately updated but the free/busy/out of the office status never changes unless you change the time of the appointment.
    Please let me know
    David

    Hi David,
    It is by design.
    The Free/Busy status is a private property that can be changed but
    only with a full update. A full update is practically a new meeting invitation to the same event, replacing the old properties with the new ones. Full updates are sent when one or more of the following properties are changed:
    Start Date/Time
    End Date/Time
    Recurrence
    If you only send a update about free/busy status, it is an informational update instead of a full update. Thus, the free/busy status of the meeting is unchanged. For more information about meeting updates, we can refer to the following blog:

  • "The Connection to Microsoft Exchange is unavailable" when adding second Exchange account to Outlook 2013

    I have a problem that I've found to be typical, just haven't found anything that describes my exact problem.
    I'm having trouble adding a second Exchange 2010 server account to Outlook 2013 in one of the computers of the domain. Outlook 2013 will complain with "The Connection to Microsoft Exchange is unavailable. Outlook must be online or connected to complete
    this action".
    I've Googled and found many threads with the same error... however most of those seem to be either a problem with the server, or the Global Catalog in Active Directory, or the "connection method" (I've tried all found solutions to no avail).
    This is not the case, since the first account is added with absolutely no problem. It can send and receive and I can delete the outlook profile and recreate it and it'll give no problems. I have this problem only when adding a second account.
    This is a fresh Windows 8.1 install with an up-to-date Outlook 2013. I have other computers in the same domain and network, with the same setup (Win 8.1 + Outlook 2013) configured with two exchange accounts with no problem.
    There are no connectivity problems, I can access that same account through OWA and in other computers on the network... the Global Catalog seems to be fine (shows two active DCs, which is correct).
    I've tried deleting and recreating the outlook profiles, repairing the outlook installation, even deleting all outlook files in AppData and letting it recreate them, with no success.
    Any hints of what could be going on?
    Before I speak, I have something important to say.

    Hi Javier,
    Thank you for the update.
    I have tested on my lab and get following result.
    Lab: Exchange 2010, CAS Array (CAS01+CAS02), MBX01, DC
    Type Server Field
    Check name result
    Changed Server Field
    CAS01.domain.com
    Yes
    CASArray.domain.com
    CASArray.domain.com
    Yes
    CASArray.domain.com
    DC.domain.com
    Yes
    CASArray.domain.com
    MBX01.domain.com
    No
    "The Connection to Microsoft Exchange is unavailable"
    Based on my knowledge, the reason why inputing DC FQDN in the Server Field fixes this issue is that Outlook performs AD Lookup and finds the account configuration from AD, then back the CAS Array FQDN in the Server Field  instead of DC FQDN.
    Exchange 2010 is different from Exchange 2013, if you are using Exchange 2013, we need to input MailboxServerGUID.domain.com into Server Field.
    If there is anything I’ve misunderstood, please don’t hesitate to let me know.

  • Unable to configure multiple Exchange accounts in Outlook 2013

    This is a complicated issue so I will try to describe it the best I can.
    I have a client with two SBS servers for two different organizations in two different locations.  Each server handles completely different domains.  Let's call them A and B.
    The issue is this...using Outlook 2010 or 2013 on clients at location B, I can configure Outlook for the users mailbox on server B just fine.  Some of the users at location B also have mailboxes on server A.  When I add a 2nd Exchange account for
    the users mailbox on server A, things get weird.  
    Sometimes, when I start Outlook after adding the 2nd Exchange account, Outlook will show only one mailbox, but it is incorrect.  The top level will show it is a mailbox on server B, but it contains email from server A.  When this happens, email
    actually transfers from one mailbox to the other.  I have to close Outlook quickly before things get out of hand. About a year ago, I determined that if the user has the same username and password for their mailbox on server A and server B, this would
    cause the problem.  So I changed the users' username on server B and it seemed to work with Outlook 2010.
    Now, a year later, we have a new user with Outlook 2013 with a mailbox on server A and server B, who works in location B.  I setup Outlook 2013 with mailbox B and it's fine.  I add a 2nd Exchange account for mailbox A to their Outlook Profile,
    and when I launch Outlook, it shows both.  BUT, the mailbox A has nothing in it, and the status shows "This folder has not yet updated.  CONNECTED".  Mailbox B shows "All folders up to date.  Connected to Microsoft Exchange".
     Also, existing email from mailbox A starts showing up in mailbox B.  If I go into mail account settings, I get the "Outlook is using temporary mailbox" dialog, meaning something has moved.  If I look at the two accounts, both look
    to be using the same OST file, even though under data files, there are two OST files, one for each mailbox account.  If I delete the 2nd Exchange account (A), Outlook works again for the single mailbox on server B.
    I've tried configuring the accounts without cached mode, but that doesn't work either.  Mailbox B had a delegate account (Full access permissions) to another account on server B, but I have tried removing that also, but no change.
    I cannot figure out why I cannot have two Exchange accounts, one from each server (A and B) in Outlook 2013/2010 at the same time.
    HELP!  
    Thank for any ideas.  I hope I haven't made this too confusing.  One last thing...when I add the 2nd Exchange mailbox, I authenticate with the username on server A with domain\username and their password.  The authentication seems to be accepted
    fine and without error.  I have also tried configuring the 2nd account using "automatic" instead of configuring manually.  Same problem.

    OK, I have done some more testing as you suggested.  I created yet another new profile with just mailbox A.  When I start Outlook, I see the users mailbox, plus a mailbox that the user has been given Full Permissions to (a delegate?).  There
    is one more mailbox that this user has full permissions to, but it did not auto-add itself, so I added the mailbox through the account properties.  Now, all three mailboxes at location A are in Outlook (users mailbox and 2 delegate mailboxes).  In
    Outlook, on the left, has at the top the users main mailbox, and then below it are two other "branches" for the delegate mailboxes.  I did NOT use cached exchange mode, btw.
    I quit Outlook and edited the profile, adding another exchange account for the users mailbox at location B.  I did a "check-name" and authenticated OK.  
    I launched Outlook, and the same (wrong) thing happens.  On the left pane of Outlook, at the top, it shows it is the users mailbox at location B (the main branch says Mailbox name -- location B), but all the folders and content are from mailbox at location
    A.  Outlook has mixed it up, and it is at this point that email starts moving between mailboxes, so I quit Outlook quickly.  It did show the two delegate mailboxes from location A, but there were just three "branches", and nowhere is there
    the real mailbox B.
    Can it have anything to do with the fact that these accounts have delegates (or are given full manage permissions to other mailboxes on the  server)??
    UPDATE:  I just determined something.  When looking at the Outlook email accounts dialog, for each account it shows the default delivery location.  For the first account (location A), it shows:
    "Selected account delivers new messages to the following location:  usersemail@locationA\Inbox".
    When I add the users mailbox for location B, it shows:
    "Selected account delivers new messages to the following location:  usersemail@locationB\Inbox".
    However, when I start Outlook, and see that things are wrong and quit, I go back into the accounts dialog, and BOTH accounts are set to deliver to the SAME location:
    "Selected account delivers new messages to the following location:  usersemail@locationA\Inbox".
    So now, the 2nd exchange account has changed it's location to deliver to mailbox A instead of B.
    Crazy stuff.

  • ICloud breaks Exchange account in Outlook 2013

    Hi,
    I installed iCloud  on my work laptop hoping to get both my corporate exchange account and my iCloud account to appear in Outlook 2013. The iCloud account works fine, but with it installed I am no longer able to send emails from my exchange account. The emails just get stuck in the outbox. Once I remove iCloud it works again.  I have tried a variety of settings in the Send/Receive group to no avail. Does anyone have an idea how I get them both to work together? All other aspects of iCloud coexists just fine. Not being able to send from my corporate account is a deal breaker.

    Hi,
    To narrow down the cause, I’d like to recommend the following troubleshooting:
    1. Try to login the test account through OWA.

  • Upgraded to Exchange 2010 now outlook 2013 can't connect externally

    Outlook 2013 used to connect to my exchange server via our TMG before upgrading to 2010. At first the clients were changed back to NTLM all the time but I fixed that and we now see basic with SSL. Now we get repeated logon.
    I have used rpc connectivity analyser and it tells me that my (self issued) certificate doesn't chain properly - but the signing certificate is loaded on the client (by Enterprise CA policy) and looking at the mail server certificate in the certificate manger
    reports the certificate to be good and correctly shows the chain (so is this a problem in the anyalyzer or does outlook constrcut its certificate chain using a different code library than say IE?).
    Oddly Windows 8.1's mail cient works flawlessly when outlook 2013 goes into loops?
    Any suggestions?
    ICHC

    Hi ICHC,
    Just as Ed said, we should create new rule on TMG during the upgrading.

  • Disable OWA hyperlink in Outlook 2013

    Is there a GPO setting that removes the hyperlink to OWA that appears next to the "Account Settings" button under "Info"?
    It appears for all users and some of them have OWA disabled, so they click on it and try playing around with it and can't log in because it's disabled for them.  I'd rather remove the link altogether so they can't do that.

    Hi,
    We cannot get the Office ID to disable the URL shown under "Access this account on the web" in Outlook 2013. There is no other GPOs to do that either. This should be a product limitation.
    A same question in Outlook 2010:
