User not available for Presenter in Meeting Options - is specifically invited to the meeting
I am running into the same issue where some users/invitees are not available to select as a Presenter in Meeting Options. However, in my case this is encountered immediately when setting up a new meeting.
I do not see any obvious difference between invitees that may cause this to happen.

Hello kfeindel,
Unfortunately, Microsoft was never able to "fix" the issue. However, there was an update that allows you to manage meeting settings through the Outlook invite. It pops out a separate window and that allowed me to add whomever was explicitly invited to the meeting as a presenter.
I was able to pick the user that previously did not show up when changing meeting options through the web link from the invitation (which pops up a browser window with the options).
Also remember that you cannot set presenters if you have only invited people using a distribution list. You have to have added their name to the invitation individually. I still have people asking me if that was my issue, so I wanted to reiterate that it was not the issue.
This has also not happened on any other meeting I have had. All new meetings that we created similarly, allowed us to choose the people we wanted as presenters without issue. It was just this set of reoccurring meetings.
Hope your issue gets resolved, or you are able to do as I did and set them through the Outlook plugin meeting options.
Regards,
True
