I've seen plenty of posts about going to the calendar page, clicking the cog, selecting Options and then scrolling down to the Primary Calendar section to set your primary calendar. However, the only options in there are calendars I created. I created a family calendar and it is my primary calendar. I shared that calendar with my family and each of them are co-owners. However, when they go to the Options and look in the Primary Calendar drop down, that family calendar does NOT show. As a test my wife created a test calendar and then shared with me making me a co-owner. I accepted the share invite and then went to the options page and yet that newly shared calendar doesn't show in my list. Some of these calendars have been in place and shared as co-owners for a couple years and yet they do not show in the Primary Calendar drop down for any person in my family that did not actually create that calendar. This makes for trouble when on a mobile device, for example, and you are quickly adding a family calendar event because you always need to make sure you go back and manually change the calendar to the family one.

 

Thanks.

Hello, I am having an issue where my calendar cannot be viewed when shared by link.

I made a calendar called 'test calendar' to illustrate my problem.

When I try to access it via a shared link, the browser refuses to display it.  I have tried Google Chrome, Internet Explorer, and Firefox.  Here's the message that Chrome gives:
The server at cid-a6287d64e7963ed6.calendar.live.com can't be found, because the DNS lookup failed. DNS is the network service that translates a website's name to its Internet address. This error is most often caused by having no connection to the Internet or a misconfigured network. It can also be caused by an unresponsive DNS server or a firewall preventing Google Chrome from accessing the network.

I am currently in college, and the users that I plan to share this with are at my college and also another nearby college.
