How to Change Location in Outlook Calendar

Hey there! Outlook Calendar is such a cool app, packed with handy features to help you organize your workdays, weeks, or even months ahead. You can add notes for specific days, set reminders for upcoming events, check the weather forecast, and so much more.

In this article, I’ll walk you through the most important Outlook Calendar features and show you how to use them in the easiest way possible. One of the things you’ll learn is how to change your location in this app.

Changing Your Location in Outlook Calendar

Outlook recently got a brand new user interface that’s much easier to use. However, not everyone has switched to the latest version yet. That’s why I’ll explain how to change your location in Outlook Calendar for both versions.

Changing Your Location – the New Outlook Version

The new and intuitive Outlook design lets you access Outlook Calendar’s settings in many different ways. Let’s go through the steps together.

First, let’s change your location for specific calendar events directly within the app.

  1. Log into your Outlook mail.
  2. Next to the Outlook label, look for a button that looks like a square made of nine dots. Click on it to open a popup window with a list of apps from the Office 365 package.

  3. If you don’t see Outlook Calendar on the list, click on “All Apps.” If you find Outlook Calendar, go to step 5.
    all apps
  4. Select “Calendar” from the list. If you can’t find it, type “Calendar” into the search box at the top of the page and hit Enter. Once you’ve clicked on the Outlook Calendar app, the main window will open.

  5. To change or add a location to a specific event, double-click on the day when the event is taking place. Another window will open where you can add a new event or edit an existing one. Fill in the details and click Save.

To change the location for a specific event, simply click on the “Search for a Room or Location” input box and type in the location you want. The user-friendly interface will suggest different options based on your previous entries. You can enter the name of a city, street, restaurant, hotel, or any other place. If the interface finds the location you entered, it will mark it on your upcoming Outlook Calendar event.

You can also set a reminder by choosing the event’s time in the same window. When you click Save, you’ll see a clock icon on the right side of your screen. The reminder will pop up on your screen at the set date and time.

If you want to change the overall location that Outlook Calendar uses to monitor weather conditions and make it easier for you to set specific event locations, follow these steps:

  1. Log into your Outlook mail account.
  2. Click on the Settings icon in the top-right corner.
    settings
  3. Type “Weather in Calendar” into the search bar and hit Enter. That will take you straight to the settings you’re looking for. Alternatively, you can access these settings by clicking on “View All Outlook Settings,” selecting “Calendar,” and finally clicking on the “Weather” tab.
    view all settings and search
  4. Click on “Add Another Location.”
    add new location
  5. Type the location you want and click Add.
  6. Finally, click Save to add your location.

If you’ve changed the overall location settings to a specific city, your Outlook Calendar app will show you the weather forecast for that location every time you open the app. You’ll see the forecast for the next five days.

If you want to check the full weather report, open Outlook Calendar and click on the weather icon for the day you’re interested in. A new window will appear, showing you the weather forecast for that day.

Click on “More Details” to visit the MSN Weather website and see the full weather report.

Changing Your Location – the Old Outlook Version

If you’re still using the old Outlook user interface, changing the location for a calendar event is pretty much the same as in the previous example. The only difference is in the design. So, to change a specific event’s location or add a new one, simply go to your Outlook Calendar, select “New Appointment,” and enter the details you want to change.

If you want to change your overall location in the old version of the app, here are the steps you need to follow:

  1. First, log into your Outlook account.
  2. Next, select the Settings icon in the upper-right corner.
  3. Then, click on Options.
  4. After that, choose Calendar.
  5. Click on Weather.
  6. Now, select Add Another Location.
  7. Type in the new location and click Save.

Get Organized with Outlook Calendar

With these instructions, you can now easily change and update your location in Outlook Calendar, set reminders, and edit events.

The latest update to the Outlook user interface brings more features and improved usability. I recommend that you switch to the new design and check out the updated version of the Outlook Calendar, as well as other apps.
