I have access to multiple Calendars in Outlook. Some of them are shared Calendars from managers and colleagues. To maintain my overview, I currently copy their content to a separate combined calendar.
Is it possible to have shared calendars side by side in Outlook for Mac 2011 instead of overlaid, like you can in Outlook for Windows? This thread is locked. You can follow the question or vote as helpful, but you cannot reply to this thread. Jun 2, 2017 - On Windows, I have the sidebar on the right hand side (with my calendar). Can I add this feature / option on my Mac? Asked: June 2, 2017 2:04.
Side By Side Calendar Feature In Outlook For Mac 2011
Obviously, this is quite error prone and cumbersome. Is there any way to automate this process or a better way to create a single merged Calendar? When I hear people talking about duplicating data within their own Outlook configuration, I always cringe a bit. Usually, there is a much better way to do this but often the option to do so isn’t easily discoverable or you might not have been aware that Outlook could do it in the first place. In the Calendar, “Overlay Mode” is such a hidden gem by which you can solve the above issue with ease. Overlay Mode and Side-by-Side Calendars Overlay Mode was first introduced in Outlook 2007 after Outlook 2003 introduced Side-by-Side Calendars.
Side-by-Side Calendars is the feature which lets you select multiple Calendars when you are in the Calendar Navigation (CTRL+2) simply by clicking the checkbox in front of the Calendar. Overlay Mode is the feature where you can actually place these Calendar “on top of each other” to create a aggregated view which looks like a single Calendar. You can find the feature in the following location:. Outlook 2007 View- View in Overlay Mode. Flip4mac wmv player pro 3.1.0.24 purchase for mac.

This allows you to combine some Calendars and to view others side-by-side. The arrow buttons on the tabs allow you to combine the selected Calendars.
With the Overlay Mode feature, you can turn multiple Calendars into one.

To automate this, there are several add-ins available.
CodeTwo offers various add-ins for this, each optimized for a specific scenario or environment:.

Rather than having your Calendar, Contacts and Tasks stored in the special iCloud folder separate from the rest of your folders, you can let them sync automatically instead.
