What am I missing? How do I add Microsoft Outlook calendar, which my main calendar, to the Samsung calendar app. I do have MS Outlook app installed and running on my phone. My concern is that I want to see all of my calendar on my watch, the Active 2, and to do that I need to have the Samsung Calendar showing my Outlook items. I open the Samsung Calendar app on my phone, go to settings, add new account and it lists 3 possibles; Samsung account, M exchange, Google. The Samsung Account and Google are active already (a blue dot out to the right). To do something I selected M Exchange, it then shows 'enter your email address', I enter my Outlook email, then a line pops up 'you have already added this account'. When I look at the available calendars to display it shows 'My phone', 'xx@gmail.com', and 'App ents'. The calendar I want to sync, 'xx@outlook.com' isn't an option. Again, what am I missing and how do I get my Outlook calendar events to sync to the Samsung calendar? Thak you.
Solved! Go to Solution.

I got this to work thanks to BboyNikki's instructions. But it works too well in the sense that it picks up a shared Outlook calendar (with a co-worker) that I don't want on the Samsung calendar. It's there even when I turn off that calendar in Outlook. I turn it on in Outlook only when I am scheduling meetings with that person. So I don't have it on most of the time in Outlook and don't want it on at all in the Samsung calendar. Suggestions? Thanks.

Turn it off in the mobile calendar as well.
In phone calendar app, select options at top left corner, go down to Outlook, and deselect the shared calendar.

Oh, found it. It was buried in a submenu in the calendar. I had missed it in an earlier search. Thank you for prompting me to dig further there.

I know your reply was months ago but it needs to stay at the top because it worked in seconds. I am very computer literate (or I like to think I am lol) and it took me 4 failed attempts following wrong advice before I found yours.
Thank you so much!!!
