how do i change the refresh interval on the Hotmail/outlook.com side of things?  I know the calendar is publishing once per hour, but my outloook.com view is not that current.

Thanks!

    Hi PeterKaras,

    I'm sorry to hear that you are still having the same problem.

    As what my colleague mentioned, Microsoft isn't responsible for the accuracy or content of any third-party calendars. We recommend you review the terms and conditions before importing or subscribing to any third-party calendars.

    However, for us to investigate deeper on your issue, please provide us the following information below on the private message area.

    • Account in question
    • Calendar name in question
    • Sample events/entries that were not synching on your Calendar
    • Calendar URL for your subscribed Calendar

    Note: You need to click the notification that states You have a private reply to this message. Click here to read it on our secure private message section or by clicking the Private Messages tab.

    We look forward to hearing from you.

    Thanks!

    Didn't help at all.

    I removed and added again subscribed calendar at May 20.

    It did not refresh since then.

    IT IS BROKEN

    I am having the same issues but the calendar subscribed to from outlook.com will either never sync, or only sync when first added.  I know it is not calendar compatibility because I am trying to sync a Microsoft exchange calendar through a 3rd party service.  The third party service (icalx.com) is always updated everytime that the desktop outlook pushes out the calendar updates. So why can't outlook.com calendars receive the same refresh.  I used to publish the calendar in question to office online calendars as a public calendar and never had these issues.  I cannot do that anymore because the service has been shutdown.  I would be glad to share more details in a private message.

    Thank you for responding so quickly. 

    Compatibility issue seems legit, however the problem occurs with an iCal online calendar... Pretty much a standard. 

    The issue initially happened with a private Google calendar (I hoped to sync Win8 & android calendars this way), so I was not much inclined to share it with you. 

    Anyway I state here a private reply to your private message is sent. 

    here is an obfuscated version of it for the information of other readers

    ##########

    account : ******@gmail.com

    most problematic calendar : GCal #1(private google calendar iCal)

    might be checked too : Gcal #2

    on GCal #1

    entries for today (2014-05-22) not synced (morning one created May,19) 

    most others do not sync either, a quick check on the iCal feed and a comparison with the database entries on live.com should reflect several items missing. 

    Also entries that were deleted several weeks ago (2014-05-21 15:00) still appear. 

    on GCal #2

    correctly imported (first time, for this bug report), however I created a few events for this week-end, I expect they will not sync until you get this message.
