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

Your a star

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?

Hi ,

Was this ever resolved as i have the same query

Unfortunately not for me :( - lots of embarrassment and apologies to invitees with various emails confusing people. Luckily my meeting series ran out so i have now set up a new one. There must be an easy fix for this though as it caused me a real nightmare!

Thanks So Much Andrew J# for the solution above.. it worked.

Reposting for everyone's reference

1. Get someone to forward the invite back to you.
2. Download the meeting as ICS file to your desktop
3. Delete the meeting from your calendar
4. Import the meeting back into your calendar via File, Open & Export, Import/Export, Import an iCalendar (.ics) or vCalendar file (.vcs), select the file on your desktop and import.
5. This allows the cancellation and control of the invite again.

Note, if this is a long running series, you will need to make sure you are sent the series, not the occurrence.

Wow - this worked for me too after trying so many ways to fix the issue. Thank you so much!!
