Outlook not synching with web calendar
That is the "broken" part is correct (I don't know about the internal resources) - external calendar sync has not worked well for a couple of years. Only fix right now is remove and readd the calendar. :(
Yea this is crazy that this doesn't work and hasn't been working for YEARS. At a minimum, they could have at least changed the description of the webcal import option to indicate that new events won't sync... that's a one day fix and can easily roll out to prod in a sprint or two. My mind is boggled that this doesn't work and that no resources are allocated to this.
I'm a backend software developer, and this missing feature should easily be fixed by one person in a month's time or less. I find it hard to believe Microsoft can't spare one individual for this feature for an app as widely used as outlook. Absolutely pitiful the number of missing features in the new desktop client; took them forever to add a simple resync button that is still hidden like a needle in haystack after all of the waiting for it. I keep wanting to like it so bad, but it really just sucks. I'm finally heavily considering dropping outlook on all my machines and switching to another provider. I know it's Noone's fault on this forum but **bleep** this has been frustrating me how badly they've managed this transition and have to vent somewhere.
