Syncronizing a Exchange 2007 Public folder to SP 2010 Caledar
Greetings
I am running Share Point 2010 Enterprise and Exchange 2007. We have a large amount of Public Folders that we need to migrate to Share Point. I was wondering if there is a way to do this without having to buy any extra software. I have researched
some and all that I have read is that you can use a the Outlook sync button to link the calendar to Outlook which I am fine with. All our workstations are using Outlook 2010. But I have read that if you copy the appointments from one calendar to
this SP linked calendar all appointments will sync from that point on, which is incorrect. Moreover, when I select list view to copy the appointments over and then open appoints in calendar view none of the appointments show I am assuming
that this is a permissions issue. So I guess I am asking two questions here. 1) what is the best way to migrate Exchange Public Folders into SharePoint? And why are the appointments that I copy over from the public folder are not showing
up when I change the view back to calendar view in Outlook. I really appreciate you time for reading my post. Thanks in advance.Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to migrate the exchange public folders to SharePoint 2010 calendar.
If you hava a small number public folders, you can migrate the public folders manully.
Here is an article which about migrate public folders to SharePoint manully(although it’s about SharePoint 2007, I think it’s helpful for you).
http://www.messageops.com/manually-migrating-public-folder-content-to-sharepoint-online
If you have a large number of Public Folders it would be recommended that you take a look at 3rd Party Migration Tools,
such as the Quest or AvePoint products:

Exchange 2007 Public Folder Database cannot be deleted
We are in the process of decommissioning exchange 2007 server from 2007 <-> 2013 coexistence.
All user MailboxDatabases have been sucsessfully removed, however PF Mailbox databases return an error.
“The public folder database 'Public Folder Database' cannot be deleted”
Object is read only because it was created by a future version of Exchange: 0.10 (14.0.100.0). Current supported version is 0.1 (8.0.535.0).
I am suspecting the presence for 2 OAB is the reason why we can’t delete Public folder database from 2007 server.
Get-OfflineAddressBook on 2007 returns

Default Offline ... ex07

Default Offline ... Offline Address ... {Version4}

Get-OfflineAddressBook on 2013 returns

AddressLists
Default Offline Address Book
{Version4}
{\Default Global Address List}
Default Offline Address Book (Ex2012)

Questions:
How can I check if both exchange servers are still OAB generation servers?
I am not sure if the previous service provider moved OAB, can I potentially cause any problems by executing
Get-MailboxDatabase | Set-MailboxDatabase -OfflineAddressBook "\Default Offline Address Book (Ex2013)"
Move-OfflineAddressBook -Identity "Default Offline Address Book" -Server EX13
3. Is it safe to delete 2007 OAB ?
ThanksDefault and System public folders show up under PF Management Console, however their preview pane on the right says "There are no items to show in this view" for both of them.

Exchange 2007 - Public Folder Access
Hello,
i have a little problem. I'm using my iPhone in my company like some other guys here. I want to synchronize the Exchange Public Folders through the iPhone. I already know thats not possible in a direct way. Does anyone know a good Tool to synchronize Folders in Exchange? I found some Tools, but only Add-Ins, no standalone applications which work without Outlook and completely alone. I'm searching for some kind of tool which runs in a process on a webserver.
MfG KeRnI know this is an issue, Microsoft are so backwards in their way of thinking.....Most companies use public folders in one way or another.
I have a Kerio Mail Server it's identical to Exchange but better and more stable and costs a fraction of the price, they released a version of their software by accident that synced and supported public folders to my iPhone, they removed it in the next update, I have contacted them on this issue and they say that they are working on solving this problem and it is due to a bug in the syncing process. So I am waiting with anticipation for them to release it very soon, so up that Microsoft!!!!!! Get with the real world!! -
Migrate Exchange 2003 Public folders and OAB to Office365?
Hi guys,
I am trying to migrate exchange 2003 public folders to office 365. I have read various documentation however they were either out of date or half-solutions.
The company stored OAB's in each public folder as well, how do I go about migrating these lists into office 365? Will it just "work" if I migrate the public folders across?
Thanks,
AlexHi,
If you are migrating from inhouse 2003 to office 365, then the best options for you are-
1. Either you can go for the manaul process. You can create PST files and can upload them to mailboxes through office 365 account.
Kindly refer the below mentioned link for the same
http://blogs.technet.com/b/canitpro/archive/2013/05/31/step-by-step-migration-of-exchange-2003-server-to-office-365.aspx
2. Or you can go for any 3rd party tool using the same you can migrate your public folders to office 365. This is required when you need to avoid the risks associated and need to keep your environment up and running even while migration process. Respond
back for third party tool suggestions. -

Exchange 2013 Public Folder Migration Not Listed
I started a public folder migration from my 2010 SP3 Exchange server to my new 2013 SP1 Exchange server. Somewhere during the process I failed. Not sure where but I am now at the point where if I try to create a new public folder on teh 2013 box i get a
warning like this.
An existing Public Folder deployment has been detected. To migrate existing Public Folder data, create new Public Folder mailbox using -HoldForMigration switch.
So I then run Get-PublicFoldermIgrationRequest to see what is still waiting... I get no migration listed in Exchange Management Shell.
I would like to find the place in AD or in the Server that thinks there is still an active request out there and remove it so I can start again with a clean slate. How do I do that?
Thanks!Hi Zulea,
This is a known issue, I recommend you refer to the following article to resolve the issue:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/3004062/en-us
Cause:
This problem occurs when the Exchange organization coexists with an earlier version of Exchange Server, and one or more public folder databases from the earlier version of Exchange still exist.
Resolution:
To resolve this issue, use one of the following methods.
Method 1: Create the mailbox by using the -HoldForMigration switch:
This option lets an administrator create a public folder mailbox in order to begin a migration from the existing public folders:
Open the Exchange Management Shell.
Run the following cmdlet to create the public folder mailbox:
New-Mailbox "Public Folder Mailbox" -PublicFolder -HoldForMigration
Method 2: Remove all public folder databases from earlier versions of Exchange Server
To remove existing public folder databases, see the following TechNet websites, as appropriate for the version of Exchange that an existing public folder resides on.
Exchange 2010:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd876883(v=exchg.141).aspx
(http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd876883(v=exchg.141).aspx)
Exchange 2007:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa998329(v=EXCHG.80).aspx
(http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa998329(v=EXCHG.80).aspx)
Create the public folder mailbox by using either the Exchange Admin Center (EAC) or the Exchange Management Shell (EMS). To do this, see the following TechNet website:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj552410(v=exchg.150).aspx

Exchange 2010 to Exchange 2013 Public Folder Problem
Dear Experts,
I am in a face of migrating Exchange 2010 to Exchange 2013. Below are my infrastructure details,
1) Parent Domain in Site A (abc.com)
2) One Child domain in Site A named child1.abc.com and Exchange 2007 is running in Site A child domain
3) One Child domain in Site B named me.abc.com and currently Exchange 2010 is running in Site B.
I have installed Exchange 2013 in Site B in coexistence scenario now Exchange 2013 users in Site B trying to attempt connection with a public folder store in the Site A Exchange 2007 servers instead of Site B Exchange 2010 servers.
Anyone help will be highly appreciated.
Thanks & Regards,
ZBso you want users to access the PF in site B.
Check the setting of Databases in Exchange 2013 and find out what is default Public Folder setup for those Database. You will basically need to change the default Public Folder in Exchange 2013 from Site A PF to Site B,, the way you have explained the scenario.
run this for Exchanger 2013 DA

Exchange Contact Public Folder Migration Question
I am migrating our Exchange 2010 environment to Exchange 2013. We are migrating all of our public folders into SharePoint before we continue with the migration. Most of our public folders are calendars, so it has been a pretty cut and dry migration.
We do have one public folder that is designated for emergency contacts. It contains the personal contact information for the CEO as well as other high up execs and managers from around the company.
Here is my dilemma. I need to migrate this out of public folders, but it still needs to remain in Exchange somewhere. I need to accomplish the following
1. Be able to view all user contact info, not just email address
2. Be able to apply permissions to the folder so that only certain individuals can gain access to these contacts
3. Be available to sync with said user's mobile devices, so that they have 24X7 access to that information
I am not real sure how to accomplish this and am open to any ideas. I am very new to SharePoint, so not sure how you might be able to leverage SharePoint to do the same thing. Any information that anybody could provide would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance,
--ScottHi Scott,
Since this is Exchange Server Forum, if you have any problem on SharePoint, I suggest ask SharePoint Forum for help so that you can get more professional suggestions. For your convenience:

Here is some information related to Exchange for your reference.
Based on my knowledge, Exchange 2013 is different from previous version of Exchange server. For example, public folder. Public folder in Exchange 2013 doesn’t based on public folder database, it is a mailbox level, called public folder mailbox.
We can follow following article to perform the public folder migration.
Use serial migration to migrate public folders to Exchange 2013 from previous versions

Exchange 2013 Public Folder Migration Problem
Hi All,
Wonder if any of you can assist with a public folder issue I am having with Exchange 2013. We have migrated from Exchange 2010 to 2013.
I have followed the guide for public folder migration here
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj150486(v=exchg.150).aspx
Everything went fine and as per the document - except I had to use the "largeitemlimit" parameter to get the public folder migration to complete.
We tested the public folder migration by adding content to public folders and creating public folders and it all appeared to be OK, we completed the migration and removed our old public folder databases from Exchange 2010.
However we noticed later that users cannot CREATE folders in SOME public folders. It appears from some testing that any folder that does not lie in the first public folder mailbox, end users cannot create public folders. Administrators can create them
fine from the ECP - just not from outlook.
It also appears some users cannot see some folders that they have permissions to.
Can anyone assist with some ideas to resolve ?
Thanks.Question?

Exchange 2013 public folder showing as mail enable no, after migration
I have migrated from 2010 to 2013 and now have a problem with some MailPublicFolders. They can receive mail, but show up in EAC as Mail Enabled "no". If I try to mail enable them they get an odd ball address i.e.
subject?[email protected]
I need them to show as mail enabled in EAC so I can give people SendAs etc.
If I edit the email address, I get an error saying the address already exists.
I think it is from 2003/2010 when alias was set to
[email protected] and now that is not permitted.
Thinking back to when we went from 2003 to 2010, we had to mail disable, then mail enable to get them working.
How can I fix the properties and end up with a mail enabled mailpublicfolder?Hi,
For this issue, I recommend you delete the public folder object under the Microsoft Exchange System Objects container. Before you delete the public folder object, please note the existing SMTP addresses.
After that, please Mail-enable the
public folder again to check result.
Here is a similar thread for your reference.

Migrating Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2010; initial backup slow...
Just migrated about 300 Exchange 2007 mailboxes to Exchange 2010 database. Temporarily using Windows Server Backup for Server 2008 R2 to backup the databases to a remote storage. Initial full backup of the database is taking longer than 24 hours
for a 235 GB database and what is now 334,000 log files...as a result of the migration. Seems like a long time.
I tested network connectivity to and from the SAN, and the Exchange server and there are no server or disk I/O issues. Server is running 16 cores and 48 GB RAM. Is this normal for it to take this long to run through the consistency checks and
backups for this amount of data?
