Moving (lots of) Outlook Calendar Items

If you want to move ALL calendar items from an Outlook calendar in one mailbox to an Outlook calendar in another mailbox – it’s not immediately apparent how to go about this.


You can simply copy it over giving it a new name (not Calendar) but then you end up with 2 calendars and it becomes messy. Also, you cannot delete the Calendar in the destination mailbox and copy the source one over (Outlook does not allow this)


So…



  • Click on the Calendar folder
  • From the ‘View’ menu choose ‘Arrange By’ , ‘Current View’ , ‘By Category’

You should now end up with a table view of all your appointments…




  • Click on the first item in the list
  • Scroll down to the bottom of the list
  • Hold down ‘SHIFT’ and click on the last item (NOTE: Select All (CTRL A) does not work)
  • Drag all the selected items into the destination Calendar.

You can leave a response, or trackback from your own site.
