I cant open up my calendar anymore. The Mail, Contacts, and every other
folder works fine, but when I click on Calendar, i get this message:

"Unable to display the folder. Microsoft Office Outlook could not access the
specified folder location."

Any ideas to try to fix/find folder?

Try a new mail profile - sounds like yours is corrupt.

I assumed that a "new mail profile" is a new email account, so I deleted my
old email account and added it back in again. No luck on the calendar.

I then searched and found an article here called: "Use the Inbox Repair
tool". I ran it and got some lost and found and recovered folders which had
the calendar appointments. But I still have no calendar icon. I created a
new Personal Folders' folder and imported the old outlook.pst items in. I
have a Calendar Icon now, but an empty calendar now. And the recovered
folder now has lost the calendar appointments it had listed in it.

Question: Does the Outlook.pst file lose calendar items when it is renamed?
I renamed it twice now and both times it lost the calendar items! How do i
get the appoitments back, and into my calendar too?

No, a new mail account is not a new mail profile. Control Panel->Mail
Icon->Profiles->New.
