Outlook 2013 Calendar unwanted linked appointments

I find that many of my appointments for my outlook appts linked with gmail account show up with a "link: name" to someone in my address book. When I look at my appts I do not find any shared calendars. How do I remove these links? Where is the
setting?

Hi,
To detail this issue:
1. Would you please detail "linked with gmail account"?
2. Provide screenshots of this issue, especially "link: name". You may upload the screenshots to SkyDrive and get a share link:

If we are talking about linking a Contact to an Appointment, for Outlook 2013, we need to edit the registry key
Key: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Outlook\Preferences
Value name: ShowContactFieldObsolete
Value type: REG_DWORD
Value: 1
Serious problems might occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you follow these steps
carefully. For added protection, back up the registry before you modify it. Then, you can restore the registry if a problem occurs. For more information about how to back up and restore the registry:

Appointment Details are not shown in Outlook 2013 Calendar Schedule View

In Outlook 2013 Calendar one has got five standard views to view appointments and meetings:
Day, Work Week, Week, Month and Schedule view.
When hovering with the mouse over an appointment the details are shown in Day, Work Week, Week and Month view but
not in Schedule view.
Is there any configuration setting to turn this feature on in Schedule view?
Remarks:
- In Outlook 2010 this problem does not occur.
- Within the scheduling assistant, the details are shown in Outlook 2013 when hovering with the mouse.

Hi,
I tested on my Outlook 2013 and got the same result. When hovering over an appointment, the details are shown in Day, Work Week, Week, Month, but it's not shown in Schedule View.
I haven't found such a setting to change this, it seems to be a product limitation so far.

Z10 does not synch Outlook 2013 Calendar

Neither the lInk nor wireless allows the Z10 to synch the Outlook 2013 calendar. How do I get my Outlook 2013 Calendar on the Z10?

Hello,
As per the system requirements page, OL2013 is supposed to be supported:
http://docs.blackberry.com/en/smartphone_users/deliverables/53140/tom1359418099212.jsp
But, as it states, only with an adequate version of LINK...you've not stated what version you are running. Otherwise a clean removal of LINK and reinstalling from scratch might be needed.
Good luck!

Outlook 2013 Calendar syncing with Blackberry Q10 error

Hi, i am facing a big challenge while syncing the Outlook 2013 calendar with blackberry Q10 through Blackberry Link Software.
When syncing to BB, I get sync error "The following reoccurring event could not be synced: 13-Oct-14 - MD Mtg with Mgmt. Remove the event and sync again". The error refers to an event for a particular date. Practically, there is no such event in
outlook for that particular date.
I have tried syncing other calendars from the same outlook file successfully but failing to do with that particular calendar. I have also tried to sync the same calendar from outlook 2010 from different OS without any success. I am running Windows 7 - 64bit
OS.
I am running all latest updated patches from Microsoft and Blackberry for both OS.
This calendar is very important as it has more than 3000 event entries.
Please help me to resolve the same at earliest since the issue seems to be in particular Outlook 2013 calendar file. I suppose there could be some hidden entry for that particular date which is causing syncing to fail.
Kindly let me know if you require any further information.

Hi,
This generaly means there is a problem with the indicated event, which cannot be sync'd to BlackBerry. You have to delete it before resyncing the calendar.
If the entry does not appear for the date mentioned in the message, it may be located on one of the historic dates according to the recurrence pattern.
Or you can use the tool of MFCMAPI to delete a hiden or corrupted calendar event:

Outlook 2013 calendar does not sync with iphone5

All of a sudden, I am unable to sync Outlook 2013 calendar with my iphone5. It had been working just fine and I do not recall making any changes. Any ideas what to look for and how to fix this? I am running Outlook 2013 under Windows 8 Pro, my iPhone 5 is ios 6.1.3, and iTunes is 11.0.2.26.

Exchange calendar became disconnected and did not sync for no reason at all. The solution - on your iPhone, go to Settings, Mail/Contact/Calendars, scroll to the bottom and set Exchange as your Default Account. Then do a test event on both tour iPhone and in Outlook and confirm it is working. Good luck - one word, patience.

Cannot sync Outlook 2013 calendar with Windows 8 phone

I recently bought a Nokia Lumia 1320 with Windows 8. I have tried to sync the calendar app with my Outlook 2013 calendar (on a Windows 8.1 PC).<o:p></o:p>
I have created a Hotmail account on Outlook and converted my original Outlook calendar to a list before copying it to the Hotmail calendar account, as instructed on various MS web pages (I cannot
enter hyperlinks here, your genius web site won't let me), but nothing appears on my phone. It was actually MUCH easier to sync with my previous Android phone and an iPad - so much for seamless Windows connections.<o:p></o:p>
After wasting many, many hours I noticed that if I
manually enter an appointment in the Hotmail calendar (in Outlook), then it
appears in the phone (and vice versa). However it does not appear for events that I have mass-copied over to the Hotmail account, including recurring events. This flies in the face of what the instructions say. There are far too many future
events for me to re-type, along with the danger that I might miss some. Why doesn't the mass copy (only of future, recurring and
active events) work?<o:p></o:p>
I have wasted way too much time on this and am beginning to deeply regret buying a Windows phone. Any help would be gratefully accepted.

Thanks for replying, Mike. I have set up two accounts on the phone, one is my 'normal' email account (non-Microsoft) and the other is my Hotmail account, which appears in Email + Accounts as 'Microsoft Account'. I am now at work (in Australia) and
don't have the phone with me, so I can't be sure of the exact words.
Anyway with the MS account there is only one check box - Email. In my endless trawling through the web I read somewhere that this 'primary' account automatically syncs the Calendar and Contacts, so the additional check boxes are considered redundant
(which seems pretty dumb - a user might not WANT to sync them).
I also set up an additional Hotmail account, which appeared as 'Hotmail 2', and this did have the sync Calendar and Contacts check boxes, but it will wouldn't do the job. I tried deleting the 'primary' account so I could use the secondary account instead
(and force the syncing through those check boxes), but it would not let me.

If you using on a windows pc, maybe you should reinstall the iCloud Control Panel. You can download the latest version from here: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1455?viewlocale=en_US
If you cant see your changes on icloud.com than you have trouble between outlook and icloud. this is the part of the icloud control panel.

Meetings created on Q10 do not sync to Outlook 2013 calendar

Am using a Shaw email account on Outlook 2013. Just got the Q10 and cannot seem to sync. It syncs from Outlook to the phone but not from the phone to Outlook.
BB Link ver 1.2.0.28
Office Professional 2013
BB Link does not throw and error messages and shows up as successful sync.
Is it possible that the phone is not able to write to the Outlook pst file. But I would have imagined that it would throw an error message is what is confusing me.
Has anyone else had this issue or something similar?
There is an update for the phone but I did not apply it. I didn't want to mess it up further.
The user was using a BB torch before and we moved him to the q10. He was having somewhat of a similar issue just that he would get meeting reminders but Outlook would not display them in the calendar. Now the q10 will not even send any of the calendar appointments to Outlook.
Thanks for the help. If anyone can offer any suggestions

LarryMcJ -
I read your first post and checked all the items you pointed out. I was already set up in the way you described but alas my problem remained. I appreciated the suggestions and checked them carefully but it had no effect on my problem.
I found it interesting that I could change an item on the BB (no matter where it was created) and the change would propagate over to iCal but a new item created on the BB would not come over. I also tried using the click box to overwrite the BB from iCal but items created on my BB were completely unaffected by the sync.
I had no calendars tied to the BB email addy. I did find that my calendars were somehow linked to various (random?) email addresses (I use 5). Things have started working better since I changed all the calendars to tie to one email addy. I was able to get Google sync to work without a hitch after about an hour of playing with it and there have been no problems since. Maybe RIM should try to hire some Google developers away ;-)
Anyway - the headache and frustration were just not worth it. There may be a way to get my setup to work with DTM but, honestly, I don't have the time, patience or the hair left to pull out. I am no longer trying to find a solution - I have moved on.

Outlook 2013 Calendar lacks color options for months and "Today"?

Am I missing settings in Outlook 2013 that would allow me to color months different/alternating colors and brightly highlight "Today", specifically in the Month view for the calendar? I see I can change the color of the overall calendar,
but that does nothing to address my problems.
Background: The month view for the calendar in Outlook 2010 was wonderfully glance-able. The current month had one color background, and the bordering months had a different color, allowing you to easily see the months. Also, "Today" was brightly
highlighted in light yellow, making it easy to discern which day on the calendar was the current day. As far as I can see in Outlook 2013, these are both now missing. Months are all the same color, making it hard to scroll through and keep any
sense of what's being presented visually. Today is denoted by a tiny blue bar that blends into all the blue bars of uncategorized appointments, again making it much harder to find than it should be. If there is no option to change the highlighting,
Outlook has taken a huge step back in usability in my eyes.

I found a good way of highlighting today's appointments in weekly and monthly view using conditional formatting:
. go to Edit - Automatic Formatting
. click Add
. in the Name field enter "Today"
. in the Label field choose a color
. click on Condition...
. on Appointments and Meetings tab where it says Time:
. choose "starts"
. choose "today"
. click OK
. click OK
While not ideal, that sounds like a decent hack to highlight today, provided I have an appointment.
However, in trying to put into practice, it's picking up all of my reoccurring appointments that are set to reoccur with no end by date, and it's not picking up the reoccurring appointments that have a defined end by date that it should be getting highlighted
(as they occur today).
Even using the advanced filter to require the "Start" be "today" and the "End" be "today" it still highlights the same wrong appointments. And unless I'm misunderstanding the logic, the "Recurrence Range End" field flag appears to be broken, as I _still_
get the same behavior by setting the condition to "exists" (apparently a setting of "No End Date" puts some sort of data into the field).

Create Outlook 2013 Calendar Report

Hi,
Can anyone advise me on how I would go about creating my own template/report to print out a daily calendar from my Outlook 2013 (32 bit) running on Windows 7.
The default daily print out is good but there are a couple of changes I would like to make. For example displaying tasks with no due date, and including appointments from other calendars.
Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks,
Lars.

Hi,
In Outlook 2013 there's no build-in feature to do some customizations as you mentioned. However, with the help of Calendar Printing Assistant, we can have an easy way to print and customize Outlook calendar information:

Outlook 2013 calendar shows 24 hour time when hovering mouse over appointment

Strange thing is, the computer is not set that way and the calendar's appointments show 12 hour time except when I hover the mouse over the appt. This is Outlook 2013 with Exchange/ Office 365.

Hi,
Please start Outlook in safe mode to check whether the issue persists. If the issue doesn't happen in safe mode, it may be caused by some third-party add-ins. We can enable the add-ins which is disabled in safe mode one by one to find out the main cause.
For more information, please refer to Step 6: Start Outlook in safe mode
in the following KB to check whether the issue is caused by the temporary changes that occur when you start Outlook in safe mode:

Outlook 2013 - Calendar - weather bar

can I populate the locations with Powershell,GPO or registry settings?

Hi,
You can make this via GPO. You need to specify a custom weather service url under
User Configuration\Administrative Templates\Microsoft Outlook 2013\Outlook Options\Preferences\Calendar Options
in Group Policy.
You need to append the "weasearchstr=city" parameter to the base URL. This parameter indicates the location,
city, for which the user wants a weather forecast (for example, London).
For more reference, please refer to Weather Bar Protocol:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/jj228383(v=office.15).aspx#ol15_weatherbar_theprotocol

ITunes 12.1.0.7 64-bit not syncing with Outlook 2013 Calendar

After updating to iTunes 12.1.0.7, Outlook 2013 (on Windows 7) is no longer syncing (via USB). It was working fine before. I'm using an iPhone 6 on iOS 8.1.3. iTunes doesn't indicate any errors, it just plain doesn't work. Thoughts?

Same seems to go for new contacts as well! I'm on Win8.1, and Outlook 2010. All worked fine until I upgraded to 12.1. Now only the contacts or calendar items that were in place prior to the upgrade get transferred. Anything since the upgrade does not come across. This is really an indicator that there are serious quality issues w/ Apple's iTunes. And they wonder why people resist upgrading!
