Meeting Owner - Series Deleted from my Calendar, but not Other Calendars

Hello,

I am having issues with one of the meeting invites I own. We host a full-team meeting for ~300 people on my team, and I am the Outlook owner of this meeting. Somehow, this meeting was deleted off my calendar, but not from others' calendars on my team. I got it back from my sent/deleted folders, however, now I cannot edit the invite. There are wrong dates reflected in the series and I need to either update it, or delete the series for my team altogether, but I am not able to.

With 300 on the team, I am not able to just blast out an email and tell them to disregard the other thread - it always results in confusion and frustration with that many people.

Any thoughts?

    We had also this issue. My customer as organizer had a prompt about a conflict&solve it. This deleted the appointment series in his calendar but has not sent out any cancelation to the participants. An appointment cannot be deleted it needs to be canceled by the organizer. I guess that a feature to solve conflicts delete it!

    @microsoft please fix it!

    My company was plagued with this issue as well. We found out this issue started occurring when we implemented TNEF for voting options within Outlook.

    Once this change was reverted any issue related to the calendar was resolved immediately, including:

    • Calendar meetings not being removed from attendees calendars.
    • Cancellations or modifications sending as HTML and not a calendar item.
    • Attendees not being able to remove said meetings from their calendar.

    Not sure if it will be the same for everyone else but worth a try!

    Hope this can help someone as it's a very frustrating issue.

    Sydney thanks for starting this thread. I’m having the same issue, however this is not a meeting series and a single invite only.

    It never sent a cancellation note to my 250 + attendees how ever it doesn’t consider me an organiser anymore.

    The meeting still shows up in others calendars within the organisation.

    I somehow managed to get it on the calendar using the pull to calendar option from the deleted items list and it showed up.

    My question to you is were you and the other participants within your org as well as outside your org be able to log in and have a successful meeting?

    Please let me know.
