I use "My Calendar" through MSN. It's a useful tool since it's internet
based and I find myself jumping to various work locations, from where I often
take time to check my schedule. At hime, however, I use Microsoft Outlook
for managing my various email accounts (work, school, personal, etc). How
can I download the MSN "My Calendar" into my Microsoft Outlook so that it's
easy to integrate in one place with all my different email accounts?
 
Do you have a paid msn account? You can only sync paid accounts with outlook
and only if you use the outlook connector for msn.

correct, unless you have a paid acct. The free ones only support mail and
contacts in Outlook (with the connector).

Is Hotmail Plus (€20/year) supposed to give you Calendar sync? Or only MSN
Premium ($20/month)?
 
I have Windows Live Hotmail Plus - and correct - calendar synching doesn't
work.

What is frustrating me is that I have been trying to upgrade to MSN Premium
and it says that it is "not available" !!

Can anyone shed any light on how that can be....?

Has anyone successfully managed to get their Outlook 2007 Calendar properly
synched with their Windows Live Hotmail Calendar...?

regards

Graham
 
I have MSN premium, but calendar sync'ing is still not working. Any ideas?

I guess I am kind-of confused. What do you mean was the MSN account
upgraded to a live account? How is that upgrade done?

Log into the acct online and there should be a link to upgrade it. I think
its on the left side with the folder lists, but I did mine so long ago that
I forget. Or try logging in via http://mail.live.com/
