Hi Gareth!

The green tick simply indicates that the Calendar is your default calendar.
Your default calendar is decided solely by what you've selected as your
default account. Although you've got your Exchange account set as default,
the default calendar will always be "Calendar" and can not be changed even
if you have more than one Exchange Calendar within the account. Also, public
folder calendars can not be set as your default Calendar.

But, what you have set as your default doesn't really matter.

Some options may exist to get you close to what you want, but first, can you
elaborate on what you're needing or expecting?

If you'd like to be able to sync your public folder calendar to your iPhone
and have the option to update the public folder calendar from your iPhone
then I don't think that's possible.

If you simply need a constant one-way sync from the public folder calendar
to the iPhone then that's still probably not directly possible but might be
easier to accomplish with some scripting.

If you can live with having to manually sync one-way from your public folder
calendar to your iPhone then you can do this:

1. Create a second calendar within your Exchange account and call it
something like "Public folder calendar".

When you have two calendars within the same Exchange account then the
iPhone's view changes to allow you to see multiple calendars. You'll see a
"< Calendars" button at the top of its list. Click that and you'll see your
Exchange "Calendar" and "Public Folder calendar".

2. Add your public folder calendar to your Subscribed Public Folders. This
will sync its contents to Entourage and you'll now see this as a third
calendar under your Exchange account.

3. Create a custom calendar view for just your public folder calendar items.
Once they're synced you can literally select all of them and then drag and
drop to your "Public Folder calendar" calendar.

The contents will sync to your iPhone. By the way, this setup will work for
a public folder address book too.

I'm not sure this will be the solution you're needing but it's the best I
have found so far.

Hope this helps!
