Problem subscribing to internet calendars

J

Joeh

I have Outlook 2007 on Vista. I have gone through the steps to subscribe to
a google calendar (also tried an ishare calendar). Using Data management, I
add the url and it shows up as pending. It is never added to the Other
Calendar section of Outlook. Once I close and reopen Outlook the entry in
Data Management dissapears.

Any assistance would be apprecieated. Updating snapshots (which do work) is
a pain.

Have you downloaded and installed the Google Synchronising tool?

Yes I have. My main calendar syncs. I maintain a few other calendars for
groups that I belong too.

New profile has the same behavior. I created a new user account too. The
same thing happens.

I have had similar problems. Outlook allows me to enter new Internet Calendar *.ics calendar links and says they are 'pending' but they never show up as part of my 'Other Calendars', they never update and they ultimately just disappear from the subscription list.

I don't understand why but I did find something that works.

Instead of loading the subscriptions by menu selections:

File -> Data File Management -> Internet Calendars

I use this:

Tools -> Account Settings -> Internet Calendars

and enter the subscriptions.

And for some unknown reason it works even though the Account Settings entry screen looks identical both ways.
