Ever since its release in 1997, Microsoft’s Outlook has grown into a go-to solution for anyone looking for a personal information manager and email client.
It was initially designed to serve the purpose of an email client. However, over the years many features like calendar management, task managing, note taking, journal logging, and even web browsing have been added.
MS Outlook has a ‘Calendar’ that is fully integrated with a user’s email, contacts, and other features. Using it, you can create appointments, organize meetings, schedule events, and much more.
Microsoft Outlook unable to publish primary calendar
But for some reason, many Microsoft Outlook users are reporting an issue where they are unable to publish their primary calendar (1,2,3,4,5).
Publishing a calendar helps users access it from external applications or connect it with third-party platforms.
For this, users have to open their Outlook inbox, go to Settings, then Calendar, Shared calendar, and go to the ‘Publish a calendar’ section and select the calendar that they want to export.
But due to an issue, when users try to select ‘Calendar’ from the drop-down menu, their selection is completely ignored, and they are unable to publish it.
Users can select any of their other added Microsoft Outlook calendars and publish them. But this issue seems to be limited to the primary calendar named ‘Calendar’.
For now, a Microsoft Community moderator is suggesting that you provide more information to help with their troubleshooting efforts.
That being said, stay tuned to PiunikaWeb to know if and when there are any further developments regarding the issue.
