Windows Calendar is a Microsoft Corporation's application used for calendar management on Windows Vista and higher. This application enables to view events of multiple calendars in a single schedule and thus quickly identify conflicts in the time schedule. Calendars may be either stored on the disk or it is possible to subscribe for calendars stored at the web server. It is also possible to publish calendars on the web server.

Kerio Connect supports publishing of calendars in user email accounts on the server and subscription of calendars stored in the mailbox from the Windows Calendar. In addition to subscription to their own calendars, users can also subscribe to calendars shared by other users.

Warning

  1. In Windows Calendar, subscribed calendars are available only in the read-only mode. Published calendars are available on the server for reading only (this implies that it is not edit published calendars when accessed by Kerio WebMail, for example).

  2. The Windows Calendar application does not allow connection to more than one user account located on a single server at a time.

  3. Kerio Connect does not support tasks created and saved in Windows Calendar.

Note

If calendars published as subfolders of the default calendar called Calendar, all events will also be displayed in the Free/Busy calendar.
