Blocked from changing appointment

[pdavis]

What can prevent an someone from changing appointments in Outlook
2003. I have run into the following scenarios:

Organizer is employee no longer with firm and rights were not
transferred for some reason for designated replacement; Meeting also
occurred yesterday but we are wanting to update to correct attendees

Upcoming event has been scheduled and we are unable to add meeting
attendees...

Any ideas???

This may be completely unrelated, but most often when I see a user unable to
make changes to a meeting they created, it's because they were added as an
invitee as a member of a distribution group. See
http://bwain-dump.blogspot.com/2007/06/missing-appointments-2-organizer-was.html for more info.

If that's not what you're getting, please describe in detail what you're
seeing, what actions occurred e.g. in creating/updating the meeting, and your
environment e.g. Exchange version, manager/delegates involved etc.

Ask the IT admin to log on as the "old" user and change the meeting details
re attendees.

Was the future meeting also organized by the person who's since left? If so,
it needs to be remade by someone who is there or you'll have a hard time
changing it too. Sys admin could do that as well while logged on as "old"
user.

I hope this helps you at least a little bit!
