The answer above is slightly incorrect. "Adjusting" doesn't mean "repairing".
Adjusting generally means making small changes to something in order to make it better suited to something. Eg. "He adjusted the airplane seat to be as comfortable as possible, which wasn't saying much under the circumstances."
Arranging something means placing it in a particular layout, or to make a plan (with the help of others) for something: "I have arranged for my daughter to go visit her cousins for a week this summer."
If you mean to ask the difference between "adjusting a meeting" and "arranging a meeting", "adjusting a meeting" means just scheduling and setting it up, while "arranging a meeting" implies that it requires some organizing/planning in order to get it done.

@heyimcake acording your explanation, adjusting means " make small changes" , suit something . " He adjusted the airplane." He made changes, suited the airplane. In other words, he repaired / fixed something on it. So is not " slightly incorrect. 😉

@prisci-ramos Nope, it's not the same thing. “Repairing” means that you fixed something that is broken or not functioning properly. “Adjusting” means that you have changed something in order to make it better but it doesn't imply that it's damaged.

Another example:
Repairing a phone = fixing a phone that is broken/damaged.
Adjusting a phone = tweaking/changing the phone settings in order to make it work in a particular way.
