Default My Calendars show 11 calendars, How do I get rid of them?

this is what I wondered - that means at least one is set to be your default
calendar. Now to make sure I'm clear on the problem, are the 11 in one pst
or do you have multiple pst's showing?

If one pst, they are probably named calendar, calendar1, calendar2 etc. If
the names are identical, use the folder list view (ctrl+6) and see if you
have several sets of inboxes etc. This would mean your profile is corrupt
and you'll need to make a new profile. See
http://www.outlook-tips.net/beginner/open_pst.htm if you need help reusing
your current pst.

If they are named calendar, calendar1 etc, only the last one (i.e.,
Calendar11) should error when you try to delete. Drag the others to the
deleted items folder or into one of the other calendar folders and delete
it. Because the sync software created them, each should have identical
events. also, restart outlook using the /resetfolders switch.
if you need help using switches:

Diane, I just discovered something else....when I try and delete the
calendars, it says that I can't, that it is a "special file" and special
files cannot be deleted. There MUST be a way to remove this stuff, I
would
think....I would HOPE anyway. It is annoying.

are you using exchange server mailbox or pop3/imap/msn? do you get an

if you try to delete newest one?

to quickly get rid of folders quickly, drag them into another folder that
will be deleted then delete it - this is faster than deleting each one
individually.

I am having a problem syncing my Outlook Calendar with my ipod, or
anything
else for that matter and I wondering if it has anything to do with the
fact
that I suddenly show 11 calendars in "my calendars". I have no idea
where
they came from, or how to get rid of them. Any suggestions? When I
try
and
open them, the same calendar opens over and over again. I did apply a
flight
itinerary from NWA to my calendar and I think that is when the
additional
ones showed up, but now I can't find them to delete them.
