I 'resolved' this by deleting all current shares in Outlook2007 and resending
the share email. It seems you can only send one invite and it has to include
all the people you want to share with.

I've been able to add people to my shares in the past, but yes, if you
can't, you need to stop sharing and redo it, with all of the addresses in
one invite.

Wondering if this problem happens if you are trying to share your calendar
with someone that you had already sent an invite to earlier. I encountered
the same problem - I was trying to share my calendar with someone who I had
already attempted to share it with some time ago, but had forgotten that I
had sent out an invite to share my calendar. So when I was trying to send out
this invite it kept giving me this error.

After some digging around I found that if I right clicked on the calendar I
wanted to share, and went to "publish to the internetchange sharing
permissions" it gave me a list of people who were "sharing" my calendar. I
clicked on the name that I wanted to resend the invite to and removed that
name from the list. After that when I tried to resend the invite it worked
without a problem.

Hope this helps!
