About a month ago, I started having an issue with saving edited calendar events on a shared calendar that I manage. When I go into an existing Event and edit information such as the date, time, title, or other information and hit "SEND", I get a pop-up saying, "Something went wrong", that "We couldn't save your calendar event. Waiting a bit might help. Keep your calendar event open to try again later." (image of this pop-up is attached).
I have tried to "resume editing", and of course, have waited with the event open, but it still won't save. It seems like this is an issue many others are experiencing as well. Solutions I have seen on other threads include turning off weather displays on the calendar, clearing your cache, and using the app instead of a browser. I have tried all of these things, but nothing has solved this problem. I manage many regular calendar events, and it is a huge hassle to have to delete an original event and replicate it over again from scratch when it only needs a small update, and everyone invited to the event sees the cancellations and re-invitations and becomes confused.
Are there any other solutions that might help? Any updates soon? Thank you.

AFAIK, Microsoft does not monitor answers.microsoft.com; it's a feel-good for us who complain, and volunteers who respond. Responses, therefore, are not authoritative and not commitments from Microsoft. This thread began in March 2024, the same complaint remains 7 months later. Similar threads have been going on for years ('Mail can't do something because the object has changed', for example).
I've spoken with Microsoft employees who cite some mechanism whereby employees can send suggestions about product improvement up the food chain, and when they do...nothing changes. So probably no one is monitoring this, at least not with the intention of fixing the things we're complaining about.
Do we have to raise a ticket for this given the number of people it is affecting or is someone from MS monitoring this thread?

Also having the same issue! Hope this gets fixed soon, switching from classic to the new outlook didn't do anything or re-adding accounts/reinstalling outlook.
Same thing happened to me. It happens on multiple computers and multiple accounts including gmail outlook.com and comcast. The only thing they have in common is the program, got to be a bug!
