Shared calendar permission problems

I am setting up a shared calendar for our office for our on-call schedule. I need people to be able to add information to the calendar but not be able to delete anyone else's entries. I have the settings set to "Author".
I have a recurring event set every day for our after-hours on-call schedule. People enter their names in the notes section of the event next to blocks that I have created to designate that they will be the person on call that evening. The event
doesn't get deleted but the names that have been entered have disappeared twice!
The notes section looks like this:
Duty:
Alternate #1:
Alternate #2:
Alternate #3:
The form is always there but the names that were entered disappear.

Hi,
Based on my research, when if the organizer or the attendee adds notes to an occurrence, Outlook creates a meeting exception. Later, if the meeting series is updated and a full update is sent, any notes in the
meeting exceptions will be lost.

Directory Server & Calendar: permission problems

When users of the Calendar server subscribe to calendars, they get no errors but the Calendar is not added to the list.
In the LDAP logs I found an error about updating the user's profile:

Shared Calendars from Outlook?

I use Outlook and have access to a few shared calendars. My own and one of the ones I have access to are available to sync to the iPhone, but another one is not. Any ideas on what differentiating factors would allow some to be recognized and not others?

Can someone break thsi down for me please. We are using small business server 2011 and everyone has a windows pc but me, I have a MBP. in outlook I can opend shared calendars no problem but when I try to us the "delegate" tab in ical's preferences nothing comes up. I cant neither share y calendar or open ones that have been shared with me. The only way aound this at this point is that I have to physically add their accounts on my MBP but I don't want to do this as this can be invading privacy since I can also get their mails. I know I can untick email when i add their accounts but the fact that I still ahve the option to tick it annoys me as I wouldnt want others doing this with my account. Can someone point me in the right direction here.
P.S. One of my colleagues bought a MBP yesterday and his was as simple as plug and play. He can share his calendar and open shared ones with ical but I still cant he his. We are both running lion. I'm starting to think this is more of a server issue with permissions or something, mind you I have basic computer knowledge.

Exchange 2013 - Shared Calendar problems

Since we put in Exchange 2013 in July 2013 we have had a problem with Shared Calendars. Even though a User has Owner Permission on another Calendar, New Appointment is Grayed Out and the User cannot add or amend and occasionally Outlook will hang.
We have tried Outlook 2010 and 2013 Clients as well as Cached Mode and Online Access. Exchange Server Standard 2013 CU2 was installed and this seemed to stop the problem for a while and now it has returned.
Permissions have been removed and reapplied both through the Exchange Powershell Interface and on the Mailbox. All other aspects of the system seem fine.
Any advice would be welcome.

Hi,
Please check your application logs in your Exchange server. Confirm whether there are some error logs such as Event 9646.
It may because there are too many users connect to shared calendar at the same time that cause this issue. And there is a limit on the number of items that clients can open.
If so, we can change regedit
on the Exchange computer to resolve this issue. For more information, please click the following KB:

Uwc shared calendar problem

Hi,
We are having problem for the shared calendar subscription from UWC. Our users can subscribe to the shared calendar But when they try to edit or add an event on shared calendar through UWC ONLY, it gives error permission denied. Though the subsribers have full permissions.... On the other hand if users try do the same thing by Calendar express, they can add, edit modify the shared calendar entries.....
here below is the UWC webserver logs:

IPhone 4S Outlook 2010 shared Calendar problem

Hello all,
There problem to see in Outlook 2010 shared calendar in iPhone 4S. In iPhone 4S there is seen owner calendar of added Exchange Server account, but I need to see other one person shared calendar which is impossible to see. I see in iPhone 4S two calendars as added, but when I open calendar I see entries only for one account.
Where is problem and how to solve it?
Thanks.
Best Regards,
Girts

I had the same problem where I could open a shared calendar in OWA but it would not work in Outlook 2010. When I clicked on the shared folder I got the error message 'outlook cannot open this folder'. The problem ended up being that the person
whose calendar was being shared was hidden on the exchange server ('hide from exchange address lists' had been selected). To resolve the issue we had to unhide the user, update the OAB on the server and then update the OAB on the desktop. We could then share
the calendar, accept the share and then hide the user again.
Sounds like I have the same issue too. Where do I go to do all the resolve part? Where do I unhide the user? I am guessing OAB means offline address book.
Thanks
Paul

Outlook 2007 Shared calendars problem

Hi,
We are having a problem with shared calendars in outlook 2007. A colleague went on holiday for two weeks and whilst he was away, he was seeing people accepting new meeting times sent by the PAs but despite being an invitee he wasnt recieving invites and
his calendar didn't update.
His calendar is shared with the PA, and she changes his appointments as and when required. Until this week, this worked no problem. Now, when she changes events on his calendar, he doesn't see the change, even when re-synched it shows no different.
Occasionally, he will create an event himself - he did this today to show me - he created the meeting, invited the board, they all accepted, and then voila, the event was in the board's calendar (showing as HIS event) but wasn't in his calendar at all.
I'm alright at email and exchange but I don't use and know nothing about outlook calendars (I'm still a strong believer in the Filofax ;))
Please help!
Jak

So sorry -- I shut down Outlook and restarted it to find that both add-ins were now present, and everything seems to be working. Unfortunately, I don't know how to delete this thread.

Problem with a shared calendar

Hello,
I have a user that has a calendar with a default setting of "reviewer" on her calendar. Every one on our (single) domain used to be able to access her calendar just fine. She left our organization for a short time on a temporary assignment, so
we disabled her account. When she came back, we re-enabled her account on our 2010 Exchange email system. (I bring this up, because I think this probably has something to do with all this).
After a few weeks or so, our users (we have both Outlook 2007, and 2013 clients) started complaining that they could not access her calender unless she specifically granted them permission to do so. Some of
us have no problem accessing her calendar. I have tried changing the permissions using powershell on the exchange server itself with no effect. I have tried stripping off all access to the calendar with no effect. I have checked DFS replication health
to make sure there wasn't problems there.
What is my next step? I wouldn't be at all surprised that I am forgetting something.
Patrick

Hi,
Based on the issue description, I think there's little we can do on Outlook side now. It should be some permission problem on Exchange. To further investigate the problem and find the root cause, please post the question in Exchange Forum:

Permission error from shared calendar Ofiice 2011

I am receiving the following errors every 15 seconds:
Permission Error. Changes to the event "Management Meeting" could not be saved because you do not have the appropriate permission.
Permission Error. Changes to the event "" could not be saved because you do not have the appropriate permission.
I have narrowed it down to a calendar that is being shared with me. When I remove the shared calendar the error messages go away. When I add it back the error messages come back.
How can I make the error messages stop?

Shared calendar problems on Sun Outlook Sync

Hi All,
I'm having a few problems with Sun Outook sync ver 7.2.402.1
In Outlook 2003, clicking the calendar icon at the bottom of the left pane, displays the calendar view. Within that calendar view, clicking �Open a Shared Calendar� displays a dialog that allows the user to enter the user name of a shared calendar. When the user name of a known shared calendar is entered, the error �Unable to display the folder. Your profile is not configured to support this operation for this user.� is displayed. This occurs also with contacts and tasks.
I am running Windows XP sp2 (fully patched)
Outlook 2003 sp2 (fully patched)

Many thanks in advance !

Permissions problem: Public folders/Shared Calendars across domains with Linked accounts

I have a linked mailbox that is accessed by an account in a trusted domain. The account can access e-mail, send e-mail, free-busy search, etc, just fine. However, there seems to be a permissions issue with the public folders and shared calendars.
When trying to access the public folders for which permissions have been assigned to the linked account from the trusted domain account, I get an error, or just can't see the folders. The only way I can view public folders is by setting default permissions
on the folder to 'Read'.
I've found some other threads that reference this problem, and a blog that no longer exists as the solution:
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/exchangesvrclientslegacy/thread/5fdf4cd7-3543-4b5d-94cc-317446ddaa46

Problem with shared calendars and adding them to favourites

Having an issue where suddenly shared calendars disappeared from users calendar list. They are now unable to add shared calenders to their favorites. I have reset the nav pane on users machines but this has no effect. It has happened on both Outlook 2010
and 2013.
Any help on why this issue has happened and a way to resolve it would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Hi,
How did you add your shared calendar to Favourites? I can't make it in my Outlook 2013.
Can you re-add the shared calendars back to the Calendar list? Calendar view >
Home tab > Open Calendar button >
Open Shared Calendar... When we use /resetnavpane command will clear the Navigation Pane settings include the shared calendar list.
In addition, we can check the OWA and see if you can see the shared calendar information. If not, try to re-add the shred calendar to check the result.
Please feel free to post back.

ICal Server Shared Calendars "403" Error

Greetings,
We are currently running a 10.7.4 Server with 10.7.4 clients. The problem is with the calendar system's sharing funtion. Some users will consistantly receive an error message "403" Stating that the user does not have permission to edit the item when they edit an item or change an existing event to another user's shared calendar. After some troublshooting I found that if I made the claendar in question the default calendar in iCal, I was able to create vents without problem. I have tried removing the problemed users from that calendar's list of shared users, and changing permissions back and forth from Read to Read/Write without any success. There are no iCloud or MobileMe accounts on any of the client machines, a pertinent negative as searching for a resolution to this issue yeilds many similar problems related to those services.
Summary:
Creating or editing an event in a shared calendar within iCal (while not the host of sdaid calendar) results in a error code 403. However, when the user in question changes their default calendar to the shared calendar, there is no issue creating new events. The issue is only persistant with a few users. Other users have no issue manipulting existing records in the same shared calendar.
Configuration:
OS X Lion Server (10.7.4)
iCal service is configured properly
Clients are all running 10.7.4
Screenshot of the error message:
Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

I have got same problem.
After importing the calendar user can't create new appointments.
It isnt possible to add a new appointment.
let me know if there is an solution?
Thanks.

Users cannot edit a shared calendar of a shared mailbox that was deleted from the cloud and recreated on premise

Description:
The following example account [email protected] is an on premise AD account being used as a shared mailbox in the cloud. We have discovered that regardless of what we do, not a single user can edit the calendar entries.
The following message is shown in Outlook Click to Run 2013 when an entry. "New appointment" button is also greyed out, including "Calendar Permissions" and some others.
This problem started when the shared mailbox was created wrongly by creating it in the cloud first and we had to delete it and start over. The "in the cloud" user was deleted and the same user was created in AD on-premise with the same account name
and then Dir Synced with the cloud. A license was assigned, a user mailbox on exchange online created and the type was converted to a shared mailbox and Editor rights were defined on the calendar folder for specific users.
Actions performed:
Action01: gave users Editor rights on calendar folder through powershell
Result01: Rights correctly added and can be seen when get-mailboxfolderpermission is ran
Action02: Opened calendar with Outlook and tried to edit entries
Result02: Error message pops up saying "You don't have permission to create an entry in this folder. Right click the folder and check..."
Action03: Opened calendar with OWA of users
Result03: Users can edit the shared calendar on OWA
Action04: Gave users Full Access permission on mailbox with automapping on
Result04: Users can edit calendar in Outlook
Action05: Gave users Full Access permission on mailbox with automapping off (mailbox no longer visible in outlook)

Result06: User cannot edit calendar in Outlook
Action07: Removed [email protected] from on-premise AD, performed dirsync, removed account from ms online using remove-msoluser -removefromrecyclebin
Result07: No trace of the account was anywhere to be found.
Action08: Created new [email protected] account on on-premise AD, assigned o365 license to user including exchange online license
Result08: New empty Exchange online mailbox was created
Action09: gave users Editor rights on calendar folder through powershell
Result09: Rights correctly added and can be seen when get-mailboxfolderpermission is ran
(Note: whenever mailboxfolder permissions are modified for this mailbox it's as if they are ran THREE times in a row, the first time they are applied and the powershell gives immediately 3 exceptions behind this:
An existing permission entry was found for user: [email protected]

Any other mailbox does not do this when setting mailboxfolder permissions)
Action10: Opened calendar with Outlook and tried to edit entries
Result10: Error message pops up saying "You don't have permission to create an entry in this folder. Right click the folder and check..."
Action11: Tried on a fresh new pc with first time logon
Result11: did not help
Additional information:
We have seen this problem with another user which was recreated, when he shares his calendar with others and people get the calendar invite email and click "Open Calendar" they receive a popup "The folder cannot be found".
My first impression points to a corruption/bug in the GAL on exchange online, since we're using o365 for midsize bussinesses we cannot use the AdressList role to expose the adresslist cmdlts for deeper troubleshooting.
PS:
Issue tested on different computers and with different user accounts, not a single user can edit the calendar of [email protected] when editor rights are given.
Noticed when editing rights for the shared mailbox in powershell after the first confirmation line
Office 2013 is click to run was updated to latest version, version number: 15.0.4659.1001

Greetings Gil,
I haven't heard of that one.
Questions:
Does the calendar in question show up in the "Subscriptions" category of iCal?
If you remove all accounts from iCal > Preferences > Accounts and quit and re-open iCal, does the calendar in question vanish? If so, does the calendar come back when you re-input the servers you need into iCal > Preferences > Accounts?
Can you provide a screen shot of your calendar sidebar.
While you answer those questions, some troubleshooting to try:
Try dragging one of your other calendars above this calendar that won't delete and then quit / re-open iCal and attempt to delete the calendar in question.
Failing that:
1. First make an iCal backup: Click on each calendar on the left hand side of iCal one at a time highlighting it's name and then going to File Export > Export and saving the resulting calendar file to a logical location for safekeeping.
2. Go to iCal > Quit iCal
3. Remove the following to the trash and restart your computer:
Home > Library > Caches > com.apple.ical
Home > Library > Calendars > Calendar Cache, Cache, Cache 1, 2, 3, etc. (Do not remove Sync Cache or Theme Cache if present)
4. Launch iCal and test.
If the issue persists at this point:
Remove the following to the trash and restart your computer:
Home > Library > Caches > com.apple.ical
Home > Library > Calendars > Calendar Cache, Cache, Cache 1, 2, 3, etc. (Do not remove Sync Cache or Theme Cache if present)
Home > Library > Preferences > com.apple.ical (There may be more than one of these. Remove them all.)
---NOTE: Removing these files may remove any shared (CalDAV) calendars you may have access to. You will have to re-add those calendars to iCal > Preferences > Accounts.
Hope that helps!

Can not add a New appointment to a shared calendar in Outlook 2010, can only add a New Meeting.

Hi
I can not add a new appointment to a shared calendar in Outlook 2010. I can see the calendar and appointments in it (all appointments are marked as busy, the detail can not be seen. I want it to do this) and I can and a New meeting to the shared calendar
but I can not add just an appointment.
I do not want e-mail being sent to the owner of the shared calendar everytime I add something.
When I view the appointment that im creating in the shared calendar the New appointment button is greyed out but the New meeting button is available.
The permision on the shared calendar for the user is:
Custom
Read = none
Write = create items, create subfolders, edit own
delete = Own
Other = folder visable
Thanks
contributor permission in outlook 2010 calendar does not work, I have given this as permision but issue is the same. We currently connect to an exchange server 2003;

Hi Cmrl,
Does it happen when you create an appointment via OWA?
Does it happen when you create an appointment via Outlook 2003?
Do you have any mobile device?
How many users encountered the issue, all users or some user?
At first, I suggest you recreate outlook profile.
At second,
use PFDAVAdmin
to correct any problems found.
