I receive a meeting invite and I accept and the organizer receives the acceptance, but it does not transfer to my calendar. Does anyone know why this happens?

Thanks.
 
Do you use Outlook Web Access?

No, I do not use Outlook Web Access. It turns out that the accepted meetings were showing up on the calendar in my personal folder and not the main calendar. This is still a major problem for me, though and would love any feedback

Thanks

It sounds like your "Delivery Location" on your
email account is your PST.

What version of Outlook do you use?
Do you connect to an Exchange Server?

I am using Outlook 2003 and I do connect to an Exchange server. This (personal calendar problem) seems to be a recent development, so I am not sure what would have changed.

Open the Tools menu
Select "View or change existing e-mail accounts"
Click NEXT >

At the bottom of the E-MAIL ACCOUNTS page
is a box that shows "Deliver new e-mail to
the following location:"

This should be MAILBOX - CLIENTS NAME

The account was already set up just like that, and the meetings are still going to the personal calendar. Any other ideas? I do appreciate your continued help

Open Outlook
Select the TOOLS menu
Select OPTIONS
On the PREFERENCES tab click the
E-MAIL OPTIONS... button
Click the ADVANCED E-MAIL OPTIONS... button
Remove the check mark next to "In folders other than the
inbox, save replies with original message"

Let me know if this button was on. If so, did this fix it?

The check box was already unchecked

I noticed that any meeting invites that stay in my inbox go to the main calendar (correct action) while all invites that get sent to personal folders via rules/alerts show up on the personal calendar (incorrect)

Should I try to uninstall/reinstall Office 2003? Would that even help

Brian, I experienced the exact same thing as you did. I had a rule set
up to move items from my Exchange inbox to my personal inbox. It used
to work fine, where any meeting requests would still show up properly
on the Exchange calendar. It worked because my personal folder did not
have a calendar folder.

But one day, I noticed my meeting requests not showing up on the
Exchange calendar and found them in the personal folder calendar
(which appeared out of nowhere). And you can't delete the personal
folder calendar. The only way I was able to solve this was to create a
new personal folder (which does not have a calendar) and copy all the
subfolders from the old personal folder to the new one. Delete the old
personal folder and make sure to update your rules to point to the new
personal folder.

I'm sure what triggered the problem. It could be that I worked offline
and Outlook created a bunch the personal calendar automatically. Let
me know if this works for you.
 
Brian: Do you have any rules that move your messages to a personal folder? I have found that whenever I accept a meeting invitation that was moved to a personal folder, the meeting appears on my personal calendar.

Before you accept a meeting, try moving the meeting invitation back into your main inbox, then accept the meeting.

Does that help?
