Opening a shared Outlook Calendar in Office 2016


Once someone has shared a mailbox calendar with you, you’ll need to add it to your calendar to view it.
  1. Open Outlook 2016
  2. Click Calendar
  3. Click Home and click Open Calendar and select From Address Book from the drop-down menu.Outlook-sharing-calendar-open-calendar
  4. Search for the mailbox name whose calendar you wish to access
  5. adminsupport@brentford.hounslow.sch.uk; click OK.
  6. The calendar will open and will list the employee’s name under Shared Calendars on the left side of the Outlook. You can (un)check the box next to the name to toggle the calendar view.
If you receive an error message or do not have permission to access the calendar, you’ll need to request permission from the calendar owners.
