Example: I have a meeting set up to repeat every Monday at 9 AM from 1st January 2023. Assume today is the 1st of November, and I want to move all the recurring meetings to Tuesday. Outlook allows me to change the current event or all the events in the series. Single-event change is OK. But if I have to change all future events, I have to select "Edit" >> "All events in the Series." This option not only changes future but all the past events as well. How can I ensure that only future events are updated (to Tuesday 9 AM) and I still have the entries of all past events in the calendar (as Monday 9 AM). Thank you in advance. Update: I'd like you to know that this is now fixed. If you open a recurring event and then click the edit button at the bottom left corner of the event window, it allows you to edit " This and all following events " **** Thank you, Microsoft Team.

I tried to do this in the App But didn’t see an “Edit” option but it was available (and completed using the steps below) using the online platform Thanks for the assist Hi Alex, Thank you for your reply. In the outlook calendar, when I double-click and open the event, it gives me two options as This event All events in the series I do not see any option as "Edit" >> "Open Occurrence" And besides, the steps 2-6 repeats is what I want to avoid. A single change that should apply to all future events and not the past events. I hope that make sense. Thanks again,

How to alter future meetings without changing the past events in a series of repeated meetings?

Example:

I have a meeting set up to repeat every Monday at 9 AM from 1st January 2023.
Assume today is the 1st of November, and I want to move all the recurring meetings to Tuesday.
Outlook allows me to change the current event or all the events in the series.
Single-event change is OK.
But if I have to change all future events, I have to select "Edit" >> "All events in the Series."
This option not only changes future but all the past events as well.

How can I ensure that only future events are updated (to Tuesday 9 AM) and I still have the entries of all past events in the calendar (as Monday 9 AM).

Thank you in advance.

Hi Alex,

Thank you for your reply.

In the outlook calendar, when I double-click and open the event, it gives me two options as

This event

All events in the series

I do not see any option as "Edit" >> "Open Occurrence"

And besides, the steps 2-6 repeats is what I want to avoid. A single change that should apply to all future events and not the past events.

I hope that make sense.

Thanks again,
