How to Add a Calendar to Outlook for Mac (2020)

Are you looking to add a shared calendar to your Outlook for Mac account? If so, this article will guide you through the process of adding a calendar and subscribing to updates.

To start, go to the Tools menu in Outlook and click on Accounts > Advanced > Delegates. This method is useful when you have full access permissions to a mailbox or are a delegate for another user's mailbox. You can also use this method if you have permissions to several folders in a shared mailbox.

If you're trying to open a shared calendar, you'll need to follow these steps:

1. Go to the Tools menu and click on Accounts > Advanced > Delegates.

2. Select the account that contains the shared calendar you want to access.

3. Click on the 'Open' button next to the calendar you want to view.

Alternatively, you can use the Open Shared Calendar or Calendar Permissions buttons if they are available in your Outlook account.

Another option is to use Auto-Map, but unfortunately, Outlook for Mac does not support this feature.

Once you've added the shared calendar, you can select it from the From field when composing emails. This will allow you to send emails using the account even if you don't have permission to send from that account.

To set up your email account, follow these steps:

1. Go to the Tools menu and click on Accounts > Advanced.

2. Select the account you want to set up.

3. Enter the incoming server information, including the server name and port number.

4. Select Use SSL to connect (recommended) under the Incoming server box.

5. Enter one of the following in the Outgoing server box: 587 or the recommended port number for your email provider.

Tips:

* If you're using New Outlook for Mac, try switching back by turning off the New Outlook switch and see if it helps to add your calendar.

* You can also enter the URL from your internet calendar manually by selecting Open Calendar > From Internet.

* Make sure to select Use SSL to connect (recommended) under both the Incoming and Outgoing server boxes.

By following these steps, you should be able to add a shared calendar to your Outlook for Mac account and start receiving updates.
