    - Cannot resolve a free/busy problem I have a user who has access to two shared calendars (for meeting rooms). She has identical access to both (the access was copied from her predecessor who accessed both without problem), however on one she cannot enter any appointments. She gets the error 'Cannot open the free/busy information'. Similarly if she tries to save then she gets 'Cannot Save the free/busy information'. She used to be able to access both fine, so I do not believe this is a permissions problem as nothing has changed. She is running Office 2007 on Windows XP Pro with Exchange 2000. Other users can access this fine. I tried all the usual /cleanfreebusy etc, but did not work. I also tried deleting her profile on the PC. If I do this and she tries saving appointments on the first log in to Outlook then it works. When she comes out again it does not. I removed both her local and server profiles (roaming profile), so effectively creating a new user and got her to try again. This worked so I thought it must have been a corrupt profile, however after working fine yesterday she now has the same problem now that she has logged out and back in again. I'm running out of ideas. Any suggestions? Many thanks Dave Tag: I need the name of the person or company to appear on my calendar Tag: 97804

    - outlook 2007 calendar slow Hi We have executive assistance that switch from several executive callendars. It is very slow trying to connect to the calendars when opening her calendar view she has 2 executives that she has to check. Its very slow in connecting. Anyone know a solution for this? Please, we have taken a big reputation hit in IT because of the Office 2007. Everyone comlaining about it being slower slower slower. When I say everyone I mean about 1000 employees. This is very frustrating! Why is 2007 slower than its predessor 2003? I don't expect much uptake on Office 2007, at least if people know better.

    - Unable to save Free/Busy Info Hi all I have searched through some other posts about this same problem and tried what was suggested and I still get the same error message when adding new appointments into Outlook 2007...reminders appear at the right time and if I synch with my pda then info gets transferred over fine. Everything still works but I just get the annoying message everytime I add in a new appointment... I have tried starting outlook 2007 with the outlook /cleanfreebusy switch and get the erorr/message "Cannot clean your local free/busy information" On looking at another post then I have tried setting the publish settings to 0 months and 1 minute (1 being the smallest amount of time that is valid). I have also tried to create a new PST file just in case it was a corruption somewhere and still get the same message. I am not using MS Exchange, this is purely a standalone install Has anyone else managed to solve this issue...its really annoying to get the error message...apart from that then Outlook runs perfectly...

    - Out of Office/Working from home flags I like the way meetings are flagged in OUTLOOK (available, busy, tentative). But with many people working from home (including me), there are 2 different kinds of out of office. Sometimes when I'm "out of office", I'm totally unavailable for anything (like I'm on the airplane), but other times, I'm not in the office, but I'm fullly available for con-calls, webex, or other types of non-face-to-face meetings (I'm WFH - working from home, or from a different location). It would be nice to be able to differentiate between: Out of office but available; and Out of office and unavailable. ---------------- This post is a suggestion for Microsoft, and Microsoft responds to the suggestions with the most votes.

    - Setting Snooze in Relation to Appointment? When a reminder appears, how do we set the snooze for hours PRIOR to the event, versus hours FROM the current time? Sometimes there is a 'Snooze' option in the drop-down for '5 minutes' or '0 minutes' before the event, but what if we want a reminder one or two hours before the event? We have tried making manual entries using the syntax of the two default options, but they are always rejected. As such, we only have the option of selecting 'Snooze' reminders based on a user designated time-period (minutes, hours, days, weeks) from the current time (versus from the event).

    - Meeting request gives different times to different people I have user A (Outlook 2000, Windows XP) who sent a meeting request to user B (also Outlook 2000, Windows XP) and user C (Outlook 2000, Windows 2000). When accepted, the meeting request creates the calendar entries like this: Users A and C: 1 p.m. (the correct time) User B: 2 p.m. I have made sure that all users are in the same time zone in Windows and that their clocks are reporting the correct time. Apparently this is the second time this has happened, though the users report that it only happens occassionally. Another meeting request made last week had no problems. The only other issue I can think of would be that our network uses an Exchange 2000 server that does not have the DST update that was released by MS two years ago when Indiana changed their daylight savings time to start a week earlier and end a week later. However this does not seem to have caused any other problems regarding calendaring since the DST switch in 2005. Any other ideas?

    - Outlook 2003 Calendar (Can't Delete Reminders from the year 1601) I have four reminders that keep popping up from Jan 01, 1601. I cannot get rid of them.

I don't think the Office for Students 2007 had anything to do with the problem but I put it in just as an observation.

Brian,
I was looking for a way to get the contact name to appear in the appointment
automatically. I will frequently make appointments while on the road, off of
my palm. I guess I was spoiled by ACT. I was hoping that this software
would have that functionality.
Thanks,
Mike

I knew that, but since I don't believe it's possible, I suggested something
else.
