Outlook to SharePoint Calendar

I need to have users (8) calendars to connect to one sharepoint calendar with an overlay. Is this possible? The goal is for everyones calendar to link to one sharepoint calendar, so that everyone can see how everyone's week looks like from one view. thanks!!

Hi,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to show 8 users’ calendars in SharePoint calendar.
SharePoint allows a maximum of 10 calendars per view in Calendar Overlay, so you can display 8 users’ calendars in one SharePoint calendar by using calendar overlay.

0x80040102 - Outlook 2010 - Sharepoint calendar error in Outlook 2010

Having read through all the articles there is no definitive answer for this problem.
Error: Task 'SharePoint' reported error (0x80040102) : 'Outlook cannot connect to the SharePoint List (<calendar-name>). The server may not be reachable from your location. Contact the SharePoint site administrator for more information. HTTP
0.'
Outlook 2010 running on XP and W7
SBS 2012 on server
Everyone running Outlook 2007 or below is absolutely fine. Both internally and externally.
I would be very grateful if someone could either:
1) Provide a resolution to this error. All articles i am reading, even ones assigned as solutions, provide no insight as to the root cause and a clear resolution.
2) Admit to an issue within Outlook 2010 and advise on possibility of future solution.
I look forward to any insight on this. Let's be careful out there ;-)

Hi,
According to your narration, first, please make sure this client can resolve the AAM name of the SharePoint server, in addition, make sure the user has enough permission on the list.
You can use fiddler and netmon together to trace this issue.
Finally, check out the following thread which may help you:

Event created for SharePoint Calendar opened in Outlook, not showing in SP

I have a SharePoint 2013 Enterprise calendar list that I have "open in outlook"
In Outlook 2013, in the opened SharePoint calendar, I create a few events. None of them show up in the SharePoint list , they only remain visible in my Outlook Calendar. I had users report this problem to me when we were still using SharePoint
2007, I had hope this error had been fixed... but I shouldn't be surprised to see that it's still happening.
How can this be fixed? I have users who are depending upon this SharePoint calendar to be accurate. I have no way of knowing that evetns created in Outlook are failing to show in SharePoint. Help please

Hi Vince,
According to your description, my understanding is that the event made in Outlook don’t sync to SharePoint site’s calendar.
Please try to use the ScanPST program to repaire the SharePoint PST file, compare the result.
More information, please refer to the link:

I hope this helps.

Outlook Sync Error with Recurring Meetings on SharePoint Calendar

We have a SharePoint (Foundation 2010) calendar that users also connect to Outlook (2010/2013). We are experiencing a problem with emailing recurring meeting requests to the SharePoint calendar; the item is received and populated properly on the SP calendar
but Outlook fails to sync the item.
The Outlook client then displays a send/receive error: [ Task 'SharePoint' reported error (0x80004005) : 'Failed to copy one or more items. For details, see the log file.'
] The error in the log file reads: "Error mapping item #140"
This issue only occurs when recurring meeting requests are emailed to the SP calendar list. Recurring meetings sync properly with Outlook when the meeting is created directly on the SP site and when created directly on the calendar view within Outlook.
I will appreciate any insight to this matter.
Thanks,
Josh

Hi,
This issue may occur if Outlook cannot connect to the Sharepoint List so that
Outlook changes cannot sync to the Sharepoint. Please try the following steps and check if it helps:
1. This error message could be caused that the PC with the Outlook installation couldn´t access the CRL from the HTTPS certificated used on the SharePoint server. To check that open the sharepoint Web site, and check the SSL certificate. There is an entry
for the CRL. Now check from the affected PC if the CRL could be accessed.
2. Check AAM configuration and we can try to browse the URL
http://intranet ; then we can recreate the connection to Sharepoint in Outlook, try to sync it and then check the result
See this thread with similar problem:

Since this question is also related to SharePoint, you can also post in SharePoint forum to check if we can get good ideas there:

Push Sharepoint Calendar to Outlook users

I have created a Calendar in Sharepoint 2010 that I would like all users in my organization to have viewable in their outlook application on laptops/desktops/etc.
Is there a way for me to have it connect automatically via a push option, or in group policy, or something... anything?
From my research there is no way to do that, but I was hoping somebody had some neat workarounds or something that I could deploy on my network in order to achieve this.

There are no such OOTB method to push the things. But you can check the below post which use some kind of coding to achieve it.

Disabling adding events to SharePoint calendar from outlook

basically we have required fields in the SharePoint calendar that I created, and its great to have that calendar linked to other peoples outlooks. The problem comes when people add events from outlook because then they don't have to fill in the required
fields to add events. I want to make it where they can still see all events on their outlooks they just can't add anything from outlook and only from SharePoint so that they have to fill in all the required fields.

Hmm. That's tough because I don't think you'd be able to stop them from adding in Outlook unless you customized Outlook client or removed permissions. If you remove permissions, then they can't add through browser either. The only thing I can think of
is having two calendars: one users put events into and one they connect to outlook. When a new event is added to the first calendar, then a workflow fires and adds it to the second. The second calendar then has read only permissions.

Meeting request in SharePoint calendar from Outlook 2010

Hi,
I've connected a SharePoint calendar to my Outlook 2010 client and wish to manage this calendar from within Outlook 2010 itself. When I try to request a new meeting in this calendar from Outlook, I am able to do everything as normal, but when the meeting
request is synchronised, it comes up with the following error:
I can see the item in the Local Failures folder but it does get sync'd soon after and appears in the SharePoint calendar list on the SharePoint site itself. However, when viewing the item in Outlook, it is an appointment, not a meeting.
I've seen this article - http://support.microsoft.com/kb/926440. Does this mean you can't create meeting requests in SharePoint calendars?
Can anyone shed some light on what is possible and what isn't? I don't want to have to create a meeting workspace for every meeting required.
Many thanks

OK, thanks for clearing that up.

Trying to sync Sharepoint calendar w/ Outlook for mac; Protocol Error; Used about:config and get same error.

I'm trying to sync a Sharepoint calendar with Outlook on my mac. When I click on "Connect to Client", I get this error:
Firefox doesn't know how to open this address, because the protocol (stssync) isn't associated with any program.
I used the about:config instructions to create a new string:
* Type about:config into the address bar and press Enter.
* Right-click -> New -> Boolean -> Name: network.protocol-handler.external.foo -> Value -> true (Replacing foo with the protocol you're specifying)
* Right-click -> New -> String -> Name: network.protocol-handler.app.foo -> Value -> /path/to/app (Replacing foo with the protocol you're specifying and /path/to/app with the path to the application you want to run.
* Ensure network.protocol-handler.expose-all is set to true.
The path I used (which opens Outlook if I click on the icon) is:
/Applications/Microsoft Office 2011/Microsoft Outlook.app
I'm still getting the same error message.
Please help me to allow Firefox to open stssync pages so that I can sync my calendars.
Thank you in advance.

How to create appointments in a Sharepoint calendar as a Sharepoint-User using Powershell?

Hi,
I want to create new entries in the Sharepoint calendar of our team.
Background: We get many mails about patch rollouts on our Windows servers, with reboots and so on. Every team member should have quick access to all these schedules so I would like to add them into our Sharepoint calendar.
Important: I have no admin rights on Sharepoint, I cannot log on to an SP server, I'm acting just as a normal user (when searching the internet, the tipps are based on "execute this on the Sharepoint server" :( ).
I see 2 options, both are fine for me:
(1) If I could get a Powershell snap-in/provider for Sharepoint, I could maybe utilize Sharepoint-Cmdlets.
BUT: I didnt find any hint how to get the snap-in or provider.
(2) I can connect the Sharepoint calendar with my Outlook and then try to create the appointments via Outlook.
BUT: I didnt find any hint how to connect to this connected calendar. All the internet hits are using the default Outlook calendar.
Can anyone tell me how to do it, please?
Thanks.
Walter

Where is the Calendar hosted at the moment? If it's within SharePoint, there is a "Connect to Outlook" button, which will export the calendar as a shared calendar to your Outlook instance. I'm never tried the reverse, so if you're using
a shared calendar, you may need to consider moving it. When they are linked, they'll be a two way synch (updates from one end will push to the other). On top of this, you and your team will be able to set-up differnet alerts.
Additionally, within the product you can create an overlay, calendar, which allows you to merge different calendars. Each source calendar can have a different colour picked for it.
In regards to running PS scripts as an end-user, not much if anything can be done here. All I can think of is adding a codeplex workflow extension, work that into a workflow and then plug a script into that. Your IT guys might not let that fly.
Hope that helps

How to display private calendar appointments in Sharepoint calendar view

I found this post about how to setup a sharepoint calendar as a personal calendar within Sharepoint 2013.
http://sharepoint.stackexchange.com/questions/83366/view-outlook-calendar-in-sharepoint-2013
It works great, but when the logged in person opens it the private calendar appointments only show as "busy" and don't show the details of the appointment. Since the person who's viewing it is the person logged in I would think it would allow the
person to see their own calendar appointments.
Is there a way to allow private appointments to show details in this view?

Hi,
As I understand you would like to show Exchange calendar contents on SharePoint calendar.
I found a similar thread for your reference:

Display Exchange multiple room / resource calendars in one SharePoint calendar - Group or Team Calendar

Hi everyone
Setup: SharePoint 2013 Enterprise Server on-premise and Exchange 2010 Server.
I want to be able to pull in multiple room calendars from Exchange into one single SharePoint calendar. This would allow users to look at room availability in one screen and help them book their meeting at the time they'd like do it. Ideally they would be
able to book a meeting right from this calendar. I want to be able to do this out of the box if possible.
One other use is to set up the calendar for an entire team so you can see their availability in one screen.
know you can do these things in the Outlook client but I wanted to know if possible OOTB in SharePoint.
I've tried a bunch of things including activating the hidden feature for Group Work Lists (which is no longer accessible via UI in 2013, but used to be available 2010) and creating calendars with Group Team turned on, etc.
I've tried the hidden My Calendar webpart but that only allows to show MY personal calendar - not interested in that.
I've tried the page viewer trick and point the URL to the OWA url, BUT that will only give me ONE calendar and not multiple and I would have to set up OWA for single sign on - rather not do that if I don't have to.
I know there's a bunch of webparts you can buy (or code one myself) that does this but I was looking to see if there's something available out of the box.
Thanks

Hi,
From your description, you can overlay an Exchange calendar on a SharePoint calendar.
In a SharePoint calendar, in the ribbon, on the Calendar tab, click Calendar Overlays.
In the Calendar Overlay Settings page, click New Calendar.
In the Name and Type section, type the Calendar Name and select Exchange.
In the Calendar Overlay Settings section, type a Description for the calendar (optional), and change the default Color theme for the calendar (optional).
Screenshot of the Calendar Overlay dialog box in SharePoint. The dialog box shows the Calendar name, calendar type (Exchange), and gives the URLs for Outlook Web Access and Exchange Web Access.
Click Find to automatically fill in web addresses for Outlook Web Access URL and Exchange Web Service URL. If Find does not work in your environment, type the URLs manually. If you want this Exchange calendar to always appear with the SharePoint group calendar,
select Always Show.
Click OK and then click OK again.
Detailed information, refer to the following articles:

How can i insert an ical feed to my Sharepoint calendar overlay?

Hi
I'm looking for a way I can add an ical feed from our booking software to a Sharepoint calendar so that I can overlay it with our resource calendar. I can add an internet calendar to Outlook but I can't seem to find a way to add the live ical feed
to a Sharepoint calendar.
I found a very useful link on code project dot com called "Insert iCal Events into Sharepoint Calendar" but it only works when you can load from a file not a live rss feed. The feed from our booking software is along the lines of webcal://company.checkfront.co.uk/view/bookings/ics/?id=bbbaac1e16263a6e99189d686147e35a1f890d9dd48f7895c452871a2c6f1e48
Any ideas would be most appreciated,
Thanks
Emma

Unfortunately, there is no way to directly import a .ics calendar into your SharePoint calendar. What you could do is import that calendar into Outlook and then set up a synchronization between SharePoint and Outlook and then you will have access to the
calendar in SharePoint.
or
May be you can add it to a calendar using below and then add that calendar to overlay

How can I display my MS Outlook/Exchange 2010 Calendar events on my web application's calendar?

I'm building a web (client) application (built in html/JavaScript/jQuery) that has a built-in calendar. I would like to pull in my Outlook/Exchange Calendar events
and display them in my web application's calendar. What is the best way to do that from a JavaScript/jQuery environment? I've been searching all over for plugins or examples of how to talk to Exchange/Outlook and retrieve Calendar events but I haven't found
a solution yet. We are currently using MS Office/Outlook/Exchange 2010. I don't need to modify the calendar events, just read them. (Note that I can't use an OWA Web Parts link
to display the calendar in an iframe; I need to have access to the actual event data so I can include other UI elements that I need for my application.) Thanks
in advance for the help!

Hi,
There's an old Java API for EWS, and you can access EWS with direct soap request to retrieve the data you want.
