Sync iPhone calendar with Outlook

I can enter an appointment on the Outlook calendar and have

it show up on the iPhone calendar. Once it is on the iPhone, I can change the

time on the iPhone appointment or delete it and that syncs with the Outlook

calendar. However, I cannot enter an appointment on the iPhone calendar and

have it show up on the Outlook calendar. Is there any explanation or any way to

correct this?

Double check that the default calendar is outlook.

I have the same problem as pensivedoc above. I can usually create a new event on the Calendar on my iPhone XR and it will then appear on my laptop. This has stopped working, even though I can still do the same thing in reverse, i.e. I can create an event on my laptop and it appears on my iPhone Calendar.


How do I fix this?
