People's Calendars group kept disappearing

[Charlie]

Any idea why the "People's Calendars" kept disappearing. Every now and then
this group of shared calendars disappeared. Are the settings of this group of
shared calendars on the local machine or on the Exchange server? We are using
MS Exchange server.

Any help is appreciated.

where is it disappearing from?

What do you mean "where it it disappearing from"? I'm not sure what you're
talking about. The only place I know where the "People's Calendar" is located
is in the left side underneath the "All Calendar Items". It is right beneath
the "My Calendars". That group of people kept disappearing. Every now and
then, all the people in that group is gone. So I'm sure what you mean by
"disappear from". As I said in the title of this thread "People's Calendar"
so that means it's disappearing from the People's Calendar group.

Hope that is clear if not, please let me know what you mean.

I wasn't sure if you meant there or in group schedules. There is a known
issue where they don't stick well, especially if you lose connectivity to
the server. Try opening outlook using the /resetnavpane switch - if it
doesn't help, then it’s the bug. (Using this switch will delete all folder
shortcuts added to the navigation pane (including Favorite folders).)

Okay, so what you are saying is that if reseting the nav pane does not help
then that means it's a Microsoft Outlook bug, correct? Does Microsoft know
about this bug? Is there any fix to this bug?

You responded to a similar question yesterday, but I’m having problems
replying to your question. The same thing is happening to me. Is there a
fix for this “seem to be bug†in Outlook?

I think you should try using the ".../CleanViews" Command-Line
Switch for Outlook. This restores default views.
NOTE: All custom views you created are lost.
Also, be sure the clients are up-to-date in their patches.

Instructions for Outlook 2007

See the following link for information on how to use
this switch VERY EASY:

Or if you use Outlook 2007

The following page explains the Command-Line switches for 2003:
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/outlook/HP010031101033.aspx

The command line looks kinda like (Depends on what version of Outlook
you are using as to WHERE your Outlook.exe file is located):

"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office11\Outlook.exe " /CleanViews

Note: Paths that include spaces between words must be enclosed in quotation
marks (") and are case sensitive.

Thanks Nikki. I'll try this.
