    To have new meetings and appointments go to the calendar of the primary account instead of a secondary one, set the desired account’s data file as the default in Outlook.

    1. In Outlook, select File > Info > Account Settings > Account Settings.
    2. In the Account Settings window, select the Data Files tab.
    3. In the list of accounts, select the account whose calendar should be primary.
    4. Select Set as Default.
    5. Select Close.

    New items created will now be saved to that account’s default calendar, which also appears in the To Do bar.

    Note:

    • Only meetings and appointments created are automatically saved to the default calendar. Meeting requests received by email are saved to the calendar of the email account they are sent to, except when the account has no calendar folder (for example, some secondary IMAP accounts). In that case, those meetings are saved to the default calendar.
