Outlook Calendar changes not showing up in Google Calendar

Hello there!

I have Outlook email and Calendar (and I'm not sure what else) through work. I shared my main Outlook Calendar to my personal Google Calendar account by importing the Outlook .ICS URL (found in Outlook.com > Settings > Calendar > Shared Calendars) into GC. All events show up usually, but this past week I haven't seen event changes showing up in GC, even more than 24 hours after the changed event passed. I can't find any way to manually force a sync/update.

What can be done to ensure event changes to my Outlook Calendar show up in my Google Calendar? This is important for me because I have a long-established system of meeting reminders based around my Google Calendar, and whether OC supports that setup or not it would be too much work to redo it all for this 1 calendar.

Thanks in advance,

Grant

    Hi There,

    I'm trying to figure out how to display my outlook calendar on my google calendar. I read through several tutorials but here's where I get stuck:

    First, I sign in to my Office 365 account, select Outlook, and choose Settings > View All Outlook Settings.

    Next, I select calendar.

    Then I'm supposed to click on 'Shared Calendars' but that option doesn't exist for me.

    Can someone please advise?

    Hey ReynaldoB, I hope you are well.

    I have been having the same issue for some time. I have a few roles in different organisations and so the synchronisation is critical for me. I have lost money and looked foolish because a meeting changed in outlook has not appeared as changed in my google calendar.

    • Have you already tried checking your Outlook calendar on the webmail(Outlook.com)? - YES I HAVE, I mainly use outlook on the web not the desktop client, I do sometimes use it on mobile but it is seriously the most unfriendly thing, you guys should just copy the way the google one works
    • What was your last activity on your Outlook calendar? - I accepted a changed meeting request as a maybe
    • Have you checked the permissions of your Outlook calendar if it was set to properly to "Can view all details"? - YES I have, the problem gets fixed if I delete the calendar in google and put it in again. If I change a google calendar meeting in outlook it changes in my google calendar, it seems to be related to if all people in the meeting have accepted it or not, regardless of whether I am an organiser or participant
    • And since this is your work calendar, have you already contacted your company IT admin to check on your calendar permissions? IT might be that this is due to some restrictions set by your company. - YES, there should be no issues

    Please work to resolve this, it is making my life miserable.

    Thanks,
    Andrew

    Hi g2zant,

    Greetings!

    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

    Based on your description, it seems to be that you are having issues with your Outlook calendar wherein events are suddenly not showing up on your Google calendar. There might be something wrong with the synchronization of your calendar between Outlook and Google. Let’s work together in finding the best solution to this issue.

    For me to better understand the issue, I’d like to ask a few questions:

    • Have you already tried checking your Outlook calendar on the webmail(Outlook.com)?
    • What was your last activity on your Outlook calendar?
    • Have you checked the permissions of your Outlook calendar if it was set to properly to "Can view all details"?
    • And since this is your work calendar, have you already contacted your company IT admin to check on your calendar permissions? IT might be that this is due to some restrictions set by your company.

    To further isolate the problem, how about if you try removing your Outlook calendar from your Google calendar then try again to adding it back. Then wait for it to synchronize.

    I look forward to your response.

    Sincerely,

    ReynaldoB
