Viewing Shared Outlook Calendars on Mac OSX

 

Option 1: Using the Open Other User's Folder feature

To open a shared Inbox, Contacts or Calendar folder:

  1. In Outlook go to File > Open > Other User's Folder.
  2. In the Open Other User's Folder window, in the User box, type the email address of the folder's owner, or select the user from the address book. In the Type box, select which folder you need to open (Inbox, Calendar or Contacts). Click OK.

    Note: Open Other User's Folder is the best option to display shared subfolder. For example, if you have a shared subfolder located in Inbox, you need to choose the corresponding type of top-level folder (Inbox) and click OK.
     
  3. The folder will appear in your folder list on the left side of the Outlook window.

Option 2: Using the Delegates settings

To open a shared Inbox, Calendar, Contacts, Tasks or Notes folder:

  1. In Outlook, go to Tools > Account. Select your account in the list in the left pane, click on Advanced, and switch to the Delegates tab.
    Under 'People I am a delegate for', click on '+' to add a person.
  2. Type the name or email address of the user who shared the folder with you, then click on Find. Select the user on the list and click on OK.
  3. Click on OK again and close the Accounts window. All the folders shared with you by this user will appear in your folder list on the left side of the Outlook window.

How to Remove Other User's Folder:

  1. Open your Outlook 2011 account and navigate to this folder.
  2. Right-click on the folder and select 'Remove from View':
