You should cover the Focus Mode option for blocking time vs doing it yourself manually. Focus Mode (if using M365) is fantastic as it will proactively book Focus Mode blocks for you two weeks in advance in an ongoing basis.

Oh thanks for sharing! 👍

Hi Lea, thank you so much for your video! I have a question about a problem happening at work. At my company, we have two rooms where clients can book time slots for themselves, and I made two separate booking pages for the two rooms. However, microsoft calendar I guess is just using one calendar for both. What ends up happening is, when a client books Room A for 3pm, the calendar will show that Room B is booked for that same time slot. It doesn't show up as available for the Room B booking, even though it is. How do I make it so that it is two independent rooms being booked in my calendar? We are not sure how to fix this, and we cannot have as many bookings as we can. I'd appreciate any tips or help with this issue. Thank you!

[@HuyTran-tu5zh]

Hi Ms. Lea, I need help on how to print out the Calendar that have attached the "My tasks" on it. Please make 1 video for it ^^

[@LeaDavid]

Hi Huy, thanks for asking. That's a very specific question so not sure if I will do a video about this...

[@jessejames4444]

Good video!

[@LeaDavid]

Thanks, Jesse!

[@jeannestancu3120]

Hi, I have a big issue to accept or refuse my managers meeting as The participants don't show in the invite. I cannot see if he's mandatory or optional and I cannot see the conflicts on his calendar for which I have delegation. It mixes with my calendar. Can you please advice how to manage the shared calendar for our boss? Thanks

[@ag49521]

I'm going to start using the Reply With Meeting option.

[@LeaDavid]

Nice, that's indeed handy!

[@Squidink09]

So… I’ve been having an issue and I haven’t been able to find any guidance - I’m curious if you know a solution! I’m trying to move a bunch of calendar meetings to a new shareable calendar. Many of these meetings were created by others, and are reoccurring. Is there an easy way to accomplish this?

[@LeaDavid]

Hi, moving events is a bit tricky tbh. Maybe you can try this solution, but not sure if it works for your specific situation: export the calendar as an .ics file (file > save as) and then import into new calendar (file > open & export > import/export > import an iCalendar (.ics)) and then check and adjust recurring events. Hope this helps, Lea

[@Squidink09]

@ creative! That hadn’t occurred to me, I’ll give it a try :) Thank you so much for your content and your responsiveness- whether this works or not I hope you know how appreciated you are! Cheers from Michigan 🥂

[@elleeden2024]

In the Outlook calendar, past events keep deleting the next day. For example, I had 3 events yesterday, but when I loaded Outlook calendar today, yesterday is empty and the 3 events were deleted. Any way to tell Outlook calendar to keep all past events? Thank you :)

[@LeaDavid]

Hi Michelle, it might be the case that you have activated AutoArchive. To check if it's on or off, go to File, Options, Advanced, AutoArchive Settings. Hope this helps. All the best, Lea

[@elleeden2024]

@@LeaDavid Yeah it's all good now, showing past calendar entries :)

[@krl5228]

Is this tutorial for Outlook 2024? If not, what version of Outlook is this tutorial for?

[@LeaDavid]

It's the older Outlook version.
