I just started noticing that I cannot add new appointments to my Outlook 2003
calendar. I get the error message "This item could not be saved to this
folder. The folder has been deleted or moved, or you do not have
permission." I have restarted my computer and that didn't help. I don't
know what happened, but it just started happening within the past couple of
days.

I am having this same problem and it is driving me nuts. My issue started
after I had to use Repair and Detect to ge my Outlook to connect with my
email server.

Any suggestions out there?

I honestly don't know why mine started happening. I also cannot move items
from the Junk email folder to the Inbox without clicking and dragging. I
cannot add them as a safe sender.

Yes outlook is activated. No items in teh junk folder now (i detleated
them). I don't know where my calendar folder is. I empty the deleted items
folder after every shut down of outlook. I don't know how many names are on
my safe senders list.

Same here, my Outlook is activated, nothing in my junk folder, I clean out
the deleted items folder daily if not more often. I don't know how many safe
senders I have, but it is probably only a small handful.

the safe and blocked lists combined have a limit of approx 2000 names.

have you rebooted after it started? That seems to fix it for some people.

If you created a new profile in Outlook 2003 or 2007 and used the pst it
created with the profile, you have a Unicode pst so file size or item count
per folder won't matter. If you are using a pst created in an older version
of outlook: If the folders have too many items you will not be able use that
folder and if the deleted is 'full' you may have problems working in other
folders. (16,000 in a pst made in outlook 2000 to 65,000 + in newer
versions) If you are using a pst created in an older version of outlook, it
can not exceed 2 GB in total file size.

I have rebooted several times. I have not changed anything since I have
downloaded Outlook 2003. I just want it to work again. And I don't know
what pst is.
