Main-Calendar

Your main calendar is always the Calendar folder in your main message store
(either your PST file or your Exchange Server mailbox). What are you trying
to accomplish?

My problem looks like this:
I created a pst file several years ago on a German Outlook (I think it was
XP) (it created german links like 'Kalender')
then I updated to an english version of Outlook 2003. Everything worked
pretty fine with 'Kalender' and 'Kontakte'.
Now I had to change the position of the *.pst file because my fileserver was
out for some days. Now I changed it back and now I got troubles those
haven't been here before. Now I got 'Kalender as well as 'Calendar' in my
tree. And I also got 'Contacts' and 'Kontakte' as well as 'Tasks' and
'Aufgaben'...
How do I fix it?
Thank you very much! For me it's pretty important to get it fixed.
So Thank you very much for hints and suggestions!
 
Sounds like you corrupted your profile. Create a new one and configure it
to attach to the preferred Outlook .pst file.

Control Panel->Mail Icon->Profiles->New.

Oh no it didn't, how can I convert all the Data like Mails and my
Calendar to the new Profile?

No conversion needed Use the Data Files button in the Mail applet of
Control Panel to tell the mail profile where to find the PST.

hm, I've created a new profile and exportet the calendar and stuff from the
old profile and imported them in the new one. Seems like it worked alright.
Thanks anyway!

Importing and exporting loses data. Avoid it whenever possible. The PST if
Outlook's native format. Why do you think you need to export/import? You
don't export a Word document from one instance of Word and import it into
another do you? No. You just open the same file. It's no different for
Outlook.
