Searching for support regarding my Outlook calendar, want to use it on two

computers and I believe to do so I need to link it up to my Hotmail Calendar

first, not sure.
 
That will work as long as you use outlook 2003 or 2007 so you can use the

outlook connector.

But only if the OP has a paid-for Hotmail account. AFAIK the Connector won't

synch free Hotmail calendars...

Asking a question?

Please tell us the version of the application you are asking about,

your OS, Service Pack level

and the FULL contents of any error message(s)

The calendar for my free Hotmail account seems to work.

That must have been a recent enhancement then. (Well, since I discontinued

using the Outlook Connector about eight to nine months ago....)

As of, oh, about a year ago, the free calendar will sync. Make that nearly

2 years ago - http://www.outlook-tips.net/archives/2007/20070509.htm

Which connector does that page talk about? The first line of the overview

for the 12.0 connector (which is calendar only for paid accts):

A new version (12.1) of the Outlook Connector offering free calendar

synchronization is available here.

(http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...B1-DF0A-46E1-AA93-7D4870871ECF&displaylang=en)

12.1 does support free accounts fully.

Thanks for the heads up. There's obviously two different pages at MS - I was

looking at this one:

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...950c-5e9ea66322d4&displaylang=en#Requirements

Very confusing!

To me there is a difference between "synchronising" and "being able to view".

I can certainly view my hotmail calendar in Outlook, but I don't know how to

physically synchronise it with Outlook 2003, such that I don't have to copy

stuff over. Any ideas? My PDA doesn't synch with Hotmail, hence the question!

Since Active Sync can't use the hotmail store to sync, you're stuck with 2

calendars and will need to copy items between the calendars if you want them

both on hotmail and the pda.
