Outlook calendar items disappearing after accepting.

This is the procedure my desktop support team is using to restore the meeting: 1. Find the missing meeting from someone internal. It doesn’t have to be the Organizer, but if it is, it hopefully is still in their Delete or Sent folder. 2. Forward the meeting to yourself WITHOUT NOTIFICATIONS/ALERTS/UPDATES 3. Tentatively accept the meeting, again WITHOUT NOTIFICATIONS/ALERTS/UPDATES 4. **Open Outlook** and navigate to the Calendar view. 5. **Find the Meeting** you want to export. 6. **Double-click the Meeting** to open it. 7. **Go to the "File" Menu**: In the meeting window, click on "File" in the top left corner. 8. **Save As**: Choose "Save As" from the menu options. 9. **Select File Type**: In the Save As dialog box, select "iCalendar Format (\*.ics)" from the "Save as type" dropdown menu. 10. **Save the File**: Choose the location where you want to save the ICS file, give it a name, and click "Save". 11. 3. Open the ICS file in notepad (or some Editor) so we can make a modification. Change the following text: 12. Find and Replace - METHOD:REQUEST to METHOD:PUBLISH 13. Save the modified ICS file. 14. Copy/Transfer the file to the person missing the meeting. 15. Double-click the ICS file on the user’s computer. 16. Accept the Warning message if one appears. 17. Close the appointment window WITHOUT Accepting or Tentative Response. 18. Outlook will ask if you want to Save, say YES.
