Outlook 2007 and trouble synching calendar

As a help to those of you who have experienced the total frustration of trying to synch Outlook 2007 appointments with your BB - I was able to figure out what was happening with mine, and perhaps this will help others:
I found that the appointments that WERE NOT synching were the ones that were on my shared calendar - who woulda thunk? I didn't put them on the shared calendar - but, there they were and they did not synch.
Once I moved them to my personal calendar, they synched up perfectly.
Hope this helps someone out there.

  • Source of Multiple Calendars in Outlook 2007 and iCloud (iOS7.0.4)

    Source of Multiple Calendars in Outlook 2007 and iCloud (iOS7.0.4)
    My  iPhones (2) and iPad list the following color-coded calendar names when the word "Calendar" is pressed at the bottom of the calendar screen:  All iCloud (no colored dot), Calendar (Blue Dot),  Home (orange Dot), Saved emails (red dot), and Saved emails (2)( green dot).
    Calendar items created on both iPhones are coded with a blue dot and appear on a blue background in iCloud and on the phones.  Calendar items created  on my iPad appear on a green background (saved emails 2)  on my iPad and my iphones. Why isn't the color "Blue"? It appears that entries made on Outlook appear in Saved Emails (red).
    I have not imported or connected with any external calendars.
    This behavior raises the following questions:
    1)  Should entries created  on each device appear in a different color?
    2)  Does the color associated with an entry designate a specific device or a specific type of device?
    3)  Which device is the "Home" device referred to in paragraph 1 above? 
    4)  Why would a Calendar be named with a reference to "saved emails"? From where would it come.
    My understanding about synching with iCloud was that any entry from any iDevice (phone or pad)  or iCloud would appear in both iCloud and  in the calendars of all devices on the same  Apple Account.  Please confirm my understanding or correct it.
    With iCloud as the hub, must I still utilize Microsoft Outlook?  I am retired and no longer need Outlook for work.
    Can I edit any calendar entry in I cloud had have it change it in all the devices, or must it be edited in the device in which the entry was originally made?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I would ditch Outlook like a bad habit.
    Now to answer your questions starting at the bottom.  yes, you can edit any and all iCloud Calendars on iCloud.com.  You can rename your calendars, re-color them, create, edit or delete events, etc.
    So you asked a question on why your calendars are named 'saved emails'.  This sounds like something that would be created from Outlook since you can send email to the calendar in Outlook.  If you quit using outlook, you can simply rename the calendars to something more sensible or delete them entirely.
    About calendar colors.  Each calendar you (or your mail program on your behalf) has created gets assigned a name and color.  Each color helps your identify which calendar and event belongs to.  When you create a new event from your iOS device or iCloud.com, you will find a handy little section that says 'calendar' where you can specify to which calendar (or color) you want that event to be on.  You will also find this option when tapping and editing and event on the iOS devices or icloud.com.  If you want all of your devices to default to the same calendar when creating a new event, on your iOS devices go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Scroll to the section that says 'Calendar' in gray (its at the very bottom) and change the 'default calendar' to whatever you want the defualt to be.  You can also change the default in iCloud.com by clicking the gear icon.
    My recommendation: 1) Ditch Outlook. Go to your Control Panel > iCloud and uncheck Outlook. 2) Move all of your events to one or two calendars.  if you don't have a need for multiple calendars, just simplify your life and move them all to one calendar.  You can edit the event and change the calendar, then go back and delete the other calendars that are confusing you with all the different colors.  You can rename, recolor, create and delete calendars form your iOS device by tapping calendar in the bottom of the screen when in the calendars app then tap edit in the top left.  You can also do these same things on iCloud.com  Where ever is easiest for you will work.

  • 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.

  • HT1296 My contacts are synching with Outlook 2007. The synch appears to complete but does not actually update the contact data.

    I am having trouble with synching contacts between Outlook 2007 and iPhone5s via iTunes. The synch appears to work but data is not actually updating in either place.

    The information I received gave me the courage to proceed with download to allow my handheld to sync with my new Outlook 2007 running on my laptop.  It worked and I still seem to be able to sync with my Outlook 2002 version on my desktop system.
    Next problem is that I have some reurring appointments on my calendar that will NOT delete.  I have tried all methods I can find and nothing works.  Even if I get to the point where it asks if I want to open "this occurrence or open the series" (then save and delete), the darned things seem to be lurking in the future.  I have tried changing the end date or the recurrence schedule and it acts like I have entered them day by day and I can't successfully change the entire series.  Any ideas?
    Thanks so much for the help with the previous issue.  You took a worry off my shoulders.

  • Please Help... Sync BB8900 with Outlook 2007 and Vista.

    I have trawled the web looking for an answer to this question and can't find any answers, please can somebody help me !!!
    I have owned my 8900 Curve for about 2 months and love it, I used to sync it with my old computer running Windows XP and Outlook 2007 and had no problems.Unfortunately that computer died and I have upgraded to a new PC unning Windows Vista, my problem is this... When I try to set up the sync options for my calendar,contacts etc I don't get the option to sync it with Outlook, I only get the option to sync it with
    1... ASC II Importer/exporter
    2...Yahoo.
    I rely heavily on my BB being up to date and without this function may as well go back to my old PDA.
    I have tried re-installing Desktop Manager a few times and even downloading older versions of it to see if this fixes my problem, all to no avail.
    Please,Please can somebody help.
    Thank You In Advance.

    Hi,
    By the "media control" I take it your were referring to the Vizkids Post, suggesting the mediad manager not be installed?
    I didn't say that, I agree with it, but I didn't say it.

     A friendly tip as this is your first thread, The User who suggested that has 4 more posts than you. He is new to the forum as well.
     What worked for his problem, might not work for yours, in this case it wouldn't have affected it at all. When you get stuck or need some
    research go to the upper left hand corner where the grey search box is. Type on keyword for your problem, I would put vista outlook 2007
    desktop, to start. You will see the history of the problems reading those subjects. You will see green resolution marked on most
    Follow those resolved threads and see how it relates to yours, and how it was resolved in the past.  Be sure to write your search results in  you thread other users can then see what you've tried and found and help you quicker
    As you get more experience you will get good use from the Support and Services grey tab at the top of the page.
    That's where the link I posted came from.  Please take my comments the way they were intended, as helpful advice, OK?
     I need some specifics on your Vista OS 32 or 64 bit?What version of desktop manage have you tried, removed reinstalled etc.?
    Okay flesh things out a little, you installed desktop manager with full access rights as an administer on Vista,correct?
    The installation was error free?
    You setup the   your email and when you went to configure the synchronization options, you had what options, I know
    you didn't have Outlook.
    What steps did you try to resolve the problem? 
    Did you change any settings in Outlook, review the desktop setup in the manual?
    How far did you get on article I left you regarding MS Outlook tips?
    Ok let me know the detail for those questions,thanks,
    Regarding the clean procedure post, The first part of the procedure states:
    "To install BlackBerry Desktop Software on a Windows® based computer that
    had a previous version of BlackBerry Desktop Software installed,
    complete the five tasks outlined below. These tasks should also be
    completed if the BlackBerry Desktop Software installation or
    uninstallation procedures did not complete successfully."
    Going on, it explains and shows how to make sure all the registry entries, program files and remnants , along with file traces
    were made In Vista and are completely removed. A lot of desktop manager issues especially in the Vista OS can be traced to old
    registrations made by a previous DM installation.
    Please let me know what parts are not clear.

  • Outlook 2007 and 2010 on Windows XP keeps asking for password

    I have a fresh installation of Exchange 2013 installed on Windows 2012 and the problem is that Outlook 2007 and 2010 which is installed on Windows XP keeps asking for password.
    The problem occurs only on Windows XP while on Windows 7 is working fine.
    Any help will be appreciated!

    Hello 
    I had similar issue in my environment  -Exchange 2010 SP2 UR4-v2 ,DAG 2 MBX servers(MBX1 and MBX2) in production site ,2 CAS in production site ,17 mail box databases , Public folder replicated to all the mailbox servers.
    strangely users using outlook 2003 and outlook 2007 were being prompted for user name passwords.
    investigations were done as follows
    1. test connection status -click on the outlook icon in the lower right of the users desktop.clicked on test connection status ..
    2. found that the username was being prompted while attempting to connect to the public folder in MBX1 server.
    3. using EMC on the exchange server, changed databases pointing to public folder in MBX1 to public folder in MBX2.  This solved the issue for us.however we were not sure of what the exact issue was ..was it public folder corruption in MBX1? .we found
    that the users were being prompted for username and password only in outlook 2007 and not in OWA or outlook 2010. this made us rule out possibility of Public folder corruption in MBX1 server.
    4.raised a case with microsoft to do a RCA (root cause analysis) . The resolution from them was to change the exchange RPC service on MBX1 from "network service" to  "local account" and switch back to "network service".
    The reason stated by microsoft is "password cache corruption" .Any ways the problem was solved at the server level.
    Hope this helps all of you who have been scratching your head over this issue

  • How to sync Outlook 2007 and Mail

    I plan on dual booting vista with outlook 2007, and mac os x 10.6. Is there a program that will sync the mail accounts, and has to be able to sync my earthlink email account? I know you can leave the email on the server, but then whenever I switch from vista to mac I can't tell what messages I have and haven't read, and the sent mail doesn't sync. I have tried mobileme, but then I can't send from my earthlink account. Earthlink does not support IMAP accounts. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I've never heard of anything that would do this and I've never seen a feature like this even requested. If Erathlink does not support IMAP the best you can do is just what you are doing already - set POP options to leave mail on server after retrieval.
    You might also consider getting an IMAP email account. Gmail and AIM are free and both offer imap.

  • MS Outlook 2007 and SBO outlook integration OK?

    I have a client that has MS outlook 2007 installed on some client machines and would like the SBO integration as well, has anyone done this yet and have there been any issues?
    Thanks! Amy

    Hi Amy,
    What version of SBO are you running? We've had problems with Outlook 2007 and Outlook Integration (eg getting the OI toolbar to display properly) when running SBO 2007A.
    You can get more details by logging your question with SAP Support but, for what it's worth, my recommendation is avoid it at the moment if you can.

  • Outlook 2007 and AcrobatX PDFmaker

    Hi, one of our employees is having many issues with PDFmaker plugin for outlook.
    Often when he opens MS Outlook he receives a message:
    """Outlook experienced a serious problem with the 'acrobat pdfmaker office com addi' add-in. If you have seen this message multiple times, you should disable this add-in and check to see if an update is available. Do you want to disable this add-in?"""
    The customer is running Windows XP SP3 with 4 Gigs of ram.
    -We have reinstalled Outlook 2007 and run latest updates multiple times
    -Reinstalled AcrobatX and ran latest updates.
    Yet still once every few times he starts up Outlook he gets this message.
    Does anyone know of any solutions for this problem?

  • Outlook 2007 and iPhone Calendar All-Day events not displaying correctly

    I recently took the 3.1.3 update for my iphone and have since noticed that syncing all-day events from my Outlook 2007 exchange environment to the iphone is not working correctly. The all-day flag on the iphone is not being checked, thus the event shows up all over the calendar instead of just a single item at the top of the calendar. This only happens for multi-day events. Single-day, all day events show fine. Here's the tests I did:
    1. Created a single day, all-day event for tomorrow June 18 in Outlook 2007. Made sure that they all-day checkbox was checked in Outlook. Waited for the sync and it shows up fine in iPhone calendar. There is a single line at the top of the "Day" view that lists the event. When you look at the event, the all-day checkbox is checked in iphone calendar.
    2. Next I updated the event in Outlook to make it a multi-day, all day event. I changed the end date to be June 19. I made sure to leave the all day checkbox checked in Outlook. Once synced, the all day checkbox on the iphone is now unchecked and as a result the event takes up the whole "Day" view for both days.
    Is there a solution for this? Only seen this since I updated to the 3.1.3 firmware. All events show up the right way in Outlook. It is only the iPhone calendar that shows them wrong. Thanks in advance for any help.

    Same problem here.
    All Day events entered in Outlook 2007 on my work machine that have ALL DAY checked and are only on that ONE Day, seem to come out fine. If however we have an all-day event that goes multiple days, then it enters it on my iphone taking up 00:00-00:00, which is very messy if you have two ALL-day envents on the same day (when tracking different personnel for example).
    I have noticed the real annoying item though is that changing it on my iPhone 4 directly, that once I put in the right start and end dates, and choose ALL DAY, about 5 seconds later it actually changes the START DAY! This makes you go back to change the start day, then it changes the end day so you change that, and now finally all sorted.
    This NEVER happened on my iPhone3G that I have used with Excahgne for over two years now. Only since I got my iPhone4.
    PLEASE Apple, fix this!!!!

  • Outlook 2007 Sync Issues with Calendar and Contacts

    I have an original iPhone and since the last iTunes update I can no longer sync my Contacts and Calendar in Outlook 2007 with my iPhone. The separate calendars are no longer showing in iTunes as a sync option only the sync all is available. When I plug in my iPhone to sync it will set in the syncing status for one to two hours and has not finished syncing since this update. I have reinstalled Outlook 2007, I uninstalled and re-installed iTunes, I have reset the sync history and any other fixes I have been able to find on the discussion boards. Does anyone know of a resolution to this problem?

    I'm having similar problems with both yahoo and google on both my and my wife's Pre 2s. Yahoo calendar sync seemed to be working fine a few weeks ago but now absolutely refuses to do anything on my wife's phone (won't even seem to delete the account properly) and only shows a few things on mine. I've tried with different accounts, removing them, deleting the permissions on the yahoo website, the aeroplane mode trick, and restarting the phone. But the same problem. Phone just says it's syncing for long periods of time but then shows nothing for it. I must have removed and added accounts about 30 times in the last 2 weeks.
    Google not syncing back from phone to cloud at all.
    This is pretty annoying - I had better functionality on my old treo 650!
    Anyone have any answers?
