I wrote a calendar sync script for Outlook to sync calendars between Exchange accounts. If you need to sync your calendars, accounts should be in same Outlook profile. I didn’t figure out how to sync between different profiles yet, but will work on it.

Function Sync-OutlookCalendar 
{
	# Connect to Outlook
	$Outlook = New-Object -com Outlook.Application
	# Get Calendars
	$Calendar1 = $Outlook.Session.folders.Item(1).Folders | where {$_.DefaultMessageClass -eq "IPM.Appointment"}
	$Calendar2 = $Outlook.Session.folders.Item(2).Folders | where {$_.DefaultMessageClass -eq "IPM.Appointment"}
	# Search Calendar Items
	$Calendar1Items = $Calendar1.items | Where {$_.Start -gt (Get-Date)} | Select-Object -Property Start, End, Subject, Location, MeetingStatus
	# Sync All: $Calendar1Items = $Calendar1.items | Select-Object -Property Start, End, Subject, Location, MeetingStatus
	# Sync Calendar Items
	Foreach ($Calendar1Item in $Calendar1Items)
	{
		$SearchDuplicate = $Calendar2.items | Where {$_.Start -eq $Calendar1Item.Start -and $_.End -eq $Calendar1Item.End -and $_.Subject -eq $Calendar1Item.Subject} | Select-Object -Property Start, End, Subject, Location, MeetingStatus
		if ($SearchDuplicate -eq $null)
		{
			$Appointment = $Calendar2.Items.Add(1)
			$Appointment.Start = $Calendar1Item.Start
			$Appointment.End = $Calendar1Item.End
			$Appointment.Subject = $Calendar1Item.Subject
			$Appointment.Location = $Calendar1Item.Location
			$Appointment.MeetingStatus = $Calendar1Item.MeetingStatus
			$Appointment.Save()
		}
		else
		{
			Write-Host "Appointment is already exist"
		}
	}
}

Every time you execute the script, it checks the duplicate entries. So you can’t sync if same appointment is also exist on other calendar. Also I thought to sync only new appointments, so there is a date checker too. You can change it if you want to sync all time appointments.
