I’ve adjusted the time scale in the Calendar (I’ve set it to 15 minutes), so that my work time hours completely fill the visible Calendar area on my screen.

Now some of my longer appointments are just big blobs of color.

Is there anyway to fill this space with some more meaningful info such as the notes I wrote in the appointment?

I'm using the Journal feature of Outlook to keep a sort of diary. Pretty much all of the Entry Types in the diary is for computer related stuff.

How can I add things like; shopping, sports, home repairs, etc...?
At work I could use an Entry Type "errands" as well.

I'm using mulitple mail profiles. Is there any way to confirm which profile is in use at any time?

I see no indication in Outlook of which profile is in use. Exiting and restarting Outlook lets me choose which profile
to use but it doesn't tell me which I was using.

How can I get some form of indication for this?

I have 2 calendars in Outlook; one for work/family events, and the other
for school-related events. I'd like to sync both to my Smartphone, but it only syncs the primary calendar.

Is this possible to sync both Calendars between Outlook and my Smartphone?

Before Outlook 2007, I could open a contact, make an appointment on the calender and when I opened that appointment, there would be a link to the contact at the bottom and a Contacts button.

I can't seem to do that now anymore. How can I get this option back?

I frequently host meetings (seminars) where I invite quite a lot of people. The Accept/Decline/Tentative receipts then quickly fill my mailbox.

I don’t really care about these responses until closer to the signup deadline and even then I use the Tracking button that is shown within the Meeting item and not all the receipts.

How can I disable these email notifications and just see the responses on the Tracking tab of the meeting?

I receive quite a lot of meeting invitations in my line of work but luckily I don’t have to attend all of them.

However, Outlook automatically accepts these meeting requests as “Tentative” and adds them to my calendar. This makes my Calendar look unnecessarily busy and also often confuses others who check my schedule.

Can I somehow prevent meetings from automatically being added as Tentative to my Calendar?
