Stop publishing calendar to Live

G

Giromondo

How can I stop publishing my Outlook calendar to LIVE. The upload to LIVE
keeps asking for my password; I've followed all the advice in 'Subject:
Publishing Calendar from Outlook to internet' without success. There is no
option to disable publishing. I've tried changing it from Automatic to Single
Upload but it keeps switching back to Automatic.

All options MUST have a facility to reverse them.

We are having the same issue. Appears to have started over the weekend.
Anyone know what is going on and why it is not accepting the login?

There is something wrong with the server -unfortunately, the only way to get
rid of the annoying prompt (before its fixed) is to stop publishing. Right
click on the calendar, choose publish and select the option to stop
publishing (removes it from the server) or remove it in tools, accounts,
published calendars tab.

Thank you. I had been looking for this in the logical place 'Publish my
calendar ...'. Unfortunately your server problem prevented this working but
did provide a link to https://calendars.office.microsoft.com/pubcalmanager
where it appears to have been successful. There was a message that the web
facility to manage calendars is to be withdrawn, I trust this will not happen
until your server problems have been fixed and understood so that Microsoft
can prevent them in future.

It's not my server and only the ability to view and manage the calendars
online is ending, publishing will continue to work.

However, there is a something wrong with LiveID authentication. If you login
to the office.com website first and do a little voodoo when there is a blue
moon, publishing works. <g>

Here is what worked for me (from my Outlook daily tip)... it took a few
tries to make it work (hence the voodoo comment):
Go to office.com and sign in with the same Live ID you use to publish your
calendar and select "Save my e-mail address and password". Restart Outlook
and the browser. It should now work for either publishing or updating a
subscribed calendar, at least until you sign out of Office Online and/or
LiveID.

I’m not sure what the secret is - before it worked, I trusted Microsoft.com
for both web and cookies, set cookie handling to allow all cookies,
restarted both Outlook and IE, and deleted saved passwords in Control Panel,
User accounts. Oh, and I cleaned out cookies to get rid of remembered
passwords.

I totally understand that it is not your server, but is there any way of
finidng out when (or indeed if!) Microsoft plans to fix it.

Thank you.
