    I just moved my calendars from one computer (Windows Vista, Office 2007) to a new one (Windows 7, Office 2007).
    I did not notice that I could check to move subfolders along with the primary calendar, so first I just moved the primary calendar and I have been using it without problems for two weeks now.

    Today I imported the rest of the calendars. Although all four of them appeared to have imported successfully (they showed up and the data wais there when I select them for viewing), now every time I open Outlook it looks for the original copies of them on the thumb drive I used to import them from!

    I thought that I would just delete those newly imported calendars and try again, but even after deleting them, Outlook asks for them when I open. The message says, for example, “The file path specified E:Tickler Calendar is not correct” and when I click OK it takes me to a dialog box to create or open a pst file. I have to close out of both the error message and this subsequent dialog for three different files before Outlook will let me work!

    Help getting rid of these messages and successfully reimporting my additional calendars will be greatly appreciated.

      I just tried it again, and this time when it got to the “create or open” dialog I just clicked “Open” and then clicked “OK” on the next box that popped up and now I can open Outlook without the error messages.
      I would still appreciate clues on how to re-import the additional calendars without triggering this problem again.

      In case it matters, I installed Outlook Business Contacts between when I imported the first calendar and the other calendars. But I haven’t used it. I installed it only because the only options Outlook gave me were to install it or to be reminded later, and I was tired of being reminded later.

      Thanks for any tips. I’ll be trying to reimport tomorrow.
