Can anyone direct me to information that pertains how the
synchronization process and Local vs. Exchange Server calendars works?
In the past I only had a calendar folder in my Exchange Mailbox. In
that situation, it did not matter if I opened a meeting request while it
was in my Exchange Server Mailbox, or if I open it in my Local PST
in-box, it was put on the calendar on the Exchange Server.
Then a problem occurred. I must have been clicking around one day and
created a calendar folder in my local PST file. From that point
forward, any meeting requests I open from my local PST file, ONLY when
in the local calendar, (and any opened in my Exchange Mailbox went ONLY
went into that Exchange Mailbox calendar). Synchronization did nothing
to resolve this situation.
I was not give the option of deleting the calendar file from my local
PST file (greyed-out). My only recourse was to create a new local PST
file (without a calendar) and move all folders to the new PST. Then I
deleted the old PST and all was working again. (BTW, as someone that
files by name, I have more than 2000+ folders that had to be
individually moved to the new PST file).
This whole situation as prompted me to want to understand more about how
different calendars (any synchronization) work together, (or not).
Any help would be appreciated.
