MS Office Forum / Outlook / Calendaring / September 2007How to Delete Extra Calendars?
When I moved from Outlook Express to Outlook 2003, my transfer failed, and it asked me to rety it, I did. It apparently didnt fail completely, since the successful retry created all the default folders with a "1" at the end, such as "Calendar1". I've now moved to Outlook 2007 and we have a MS Exchange server and can do appts, etc. via the server. I now notice that events that go to the Calendar1 folder tell me that I won't get meeting confirmations, etc. I tried to move my "Calendar1" contents to "Calendar", but failed, apparenlty 12 times. A friend was finally able to do it, though I'm not sure what was done. I know it failed 12 times since the current Calendar actually shows inside appts as being in "Calendar13". My problem is I now have 4 reminders popping up for the same events. (1 from Calendar13, 1 from Calendar12, Calendar11, another just says Calendar) (Not sure why its only 4, since there appear to be 13 of them) I've deleted the Calendars from the Outlook interface, but it seems they are really still there, in some file, finding reminder info, and tracking appts. How can I delete ALL of the old Calendars, and just keep it all in the main "Calendar" folder? Where are these calendars located on my C-Drive? Forest Hi Forest Take a look at the Folder List view of your Outlook (left bottom corner of the Outlook Navigation Pain). Then come back with a few answers and we'll try to sort this mess out. 1. Are there sub-folders in the Calendar? 2. Are the appointments you want to keep in the top level Calendar? 3. Which Calendar are the new appointments being delivered to?

I don't think there are subfolders, I see none. 2. Yes, all appts go into "Calendar", but that's because its the only 1 visible. However, Perhaps its only for recurring appts, but some appts pop up 4 or 5 times in the same notifcation box, as if they were 4 or 5 different appts. As mentioned, I have noticed this only happen so far with a recurring appt/date. 3. As above, ALL appts go into that visible Calendar. My goal is to remove the extra notifications, which when I open those items, show as on "Calendar11", and "Calendar12", etc. Perhaps the way to'skin this cat" is to remove these recurring appts and repost them. However, I'm not sure that will matter since they appear to be in a Calendar that I'm no longer working in. BTW, I dont recall where, but I did see that the current 'main' Calendar is "Calendar13".

In there there is a "Calendar" folder only. (There was a "Calendar1" folder, but we deleted that. There are still duplicates of the other folders, "Notes" & "Notes1", Tasks & Tasks1, etc.) However, my events are still coming up with 5 notices. This time it was not a recurring appt, which is what I thought the problem was tied to. It seems any type of appt may do this. And this only started happening as I tried multiple ways to move my appts from the Calendar1 folder to the main Calendar folder. Can you tell me where in the C Drive the Calendar is stored? Thanks, Forest > Did you look at the folder list view? > [quoted text clipped - 85 lines] > >> > > >> > Forest Try use the command line switch to clear reminders. http://www.outlook-tips.net/howto/commandlines.htm The Calendar is within the Outlook file. Right click the top folder (Outlook Today I expect it will say) and then Properties | Advanced - that's where you can see it's location.
