Warning
Selecting All instances will completely remove all previous appointments in the series, and re-create the series using the start date of the instance being edited. For example, if you update a repeating appointment using the third instance of a series that has five instances, the first two instances are deleted and the third instance becomes the first instance with four instances following it. If you want to maintain a series of repeating events with their original dates, either edit the first instance of the series, or edit any other instance and change the start date to the new date (e.g. the date when the first instance occurs). This applies only when you change the following event details: location, calendar, date, time, or repeat details. Changing other appointment details (e.g. description, duration, or summary) does not cause the series to be re-created

                    ii. Use the drop-down menu to select This and future instances and click OK to update the instance of the event that was selected and all future instances of the event.
