That worked thanks for tips- I have only one hurdle left, I subscribed to the calendar from a NON exchange IMAP outlook session, and the calendar showed up , but it will not update/synchronize, it's been over an hour and it just says at the bottom
"this folder was last updated 3/19/11:44 am" and yes I did a manual send receive and email has updated , just not the subscribed calendar. is there a setting I missed?

In that case, make sure you’re opening up the shared/resource mailbox directly in OWA. OWA doesn’t expose the sharing/publishing when you have added that Calendar within your own mailbox view. At least in Exchange 2010. If you have granted yourself full mailbox rights you should be able to (either by clicking your name in the upper-right to open a different mailbox or going directly to your OWA site with its email address https://mail.domain.com/owa/emailaddress). Then you should be able to share that calendar out from within the mailbox itself.

From: [email protected] To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [Exchange] Accessing shared and/or public calendars from mobile Date: Thu, 19 Mar 2015 02:08:42 +0000 Did you add the newly created shared mailbox to the anonymous Sharing Policy I assume you created? That wouldn’t be automatic for new mailboxes. Unfortunately this particular feature only works with mailboxes and not public folders.

I then thought maybe because its older format , so I created a new resource mailbox (room) now this one DOES show the "share button" but when I click it the "Publish this calendar to internet" is greyed out. What are the requirements (if it is possible) to publish a Public Calendar to the internet? Thanks From: [email protected] To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [Exchange] Accessing shared and/or public calendars from mobile Date: Tue, 17 Mar 2015 18:40:37 +0000 Any client that supports the appropriate WebDAV connection should be able to “subscribe” to the shared calendar without credentials once properly enabled. Since this requires an anonymous unauthenticated external connection, anyone that is sent the invite or link to the Calendar can add it to their client, device, or application that supports the correct method of connecting. Once the device/application has subscribed, it will periodically pull down updates directly from the calendar’s URL. An iOS device will usually properly detect the correct method to open the calendar within the calendar app if sent an invite to an active mail account. The URL can also be manually added via: Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendar > Add Account > Other > In Calendars section, Add Subscribed Calendar > Paste Calendar’s URL From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of J- P Sent: Tuesday, March 17, 2015 11:37 AM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [Exchange] Accessing shared and/or public calendars from mobile After further research and consideration I will opt for your method. Does this allow the public calendar that is being published to synch to a device , like a users calendar can? Also, am I understanding correclty that it can be shared with external (non-AD users?) From: [email protected] To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [Exchange] Accessing shared and/or public calendars from mobile Date: Tue, 17 Mar 2015 14:39:32 +0000 It’s a similar thing done a different way. As opposed to letting Exchange publish it, you’re using the Outlook client to publish to a WebDAV server. The main difference being that the one you linked to requires an Outlook client to always publish the latest information as opposed to publishing the direct link into Exchange that would have the latest content available. Plus the WebDAV server method requires additional configuration/resources anyways. With the Exchange method you can set the sharing policy for the maximum amount of details that can be published. If you only wanted something like Free/busy being available, etc. I personally like not having to rely on Outlook clients for “automation”. Either way the WebDAV method is assuming you have no security/privacy/etc policy problems with anonymous access to this type of Calendar content. I just know it works from testing and provided it as a potential solution.

You can then send a WebDAV/CalDAV invite to the user(s) that want to see it on the device. They just have to click on it and it will add it to their list of calendars on the devices. Note that this does allow an anonymous connection to the calendar through the internet. Though you can pick the mailboxes this applies to in the Calendar Sharing Policy you create using the articles above. The URL will be unique and not easily discoverable, but the message/invite can be forwarded to anywhere and anyone could subscribe to it to retrieve the information from the calendar. If your CAS servers are behind something like a TMG server that does pre-authentication you would have to allow non-authenticated connections.
