I'm using Outlook 365 on my Windows 11 PC, and the Outlook android app on my smartphone. On the PC, I have a work calendar, an association calendar, and a private one. The android app only has the private e-mail account and calendar (this is for security reasons). Until very recently, I have been able to copy meetings from the work and association calendars to the private one on my PC, so that they show up in my android Outlook app.
Microsoft has removed this functionality without warning. Outlook blocks copying meetings with “Copying meetings is not supported.” - Microsoft Support.
The workaround (involving editing the regsitry) works, but what is the long term solution?

I thought it was just me!
Why would Microsoft turn this function off? That's ridiculous!
Like many who have commented before, I receive meeting invites across multiple calendars, but need to consolidate them into one.
Thankfully I was able to update the registry to resolve the issue, but I shouldn't have had to do that in the first place!
This unannounced chage is stunningly inept on Microsoft's part, given that their meeting series functionality was already terrible.
If they are trying to make sure competitors win over some business due to awkward and inefficient calendaring functionality, they are doing a good job of that.
I am having the same issue. This is very annoying, I already had my meetings set up for the year and now I cant copy and paste them into my weekdays. Is there a fix for any of this!?
Thanks I had already done that, but we shouldn't be in a situaion where it is necessary - and I know it doesn't work for Outlook on Mac. Let's hope MS comes up with a more permanent solution.
This works in the old outlook but not in the "new" outlook. You need to add a reg key to allow copying again. I think in the new Outlook you have to use duplicate, but I haven't tested that.
Here is the reg key entry that has to be added for the old outlook
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Outlook\Options\Calendar
EnableMeetingCopy=DWORD:1
After you add the reg key you can drag and drop from one calendar to another.
