How do you get iCal to accept an invitation sent out to a list?

When I am sent an invitation, the following error is produced by iCal:
"Someone invited you to an event using an email address that isn’t on your “me” card in Address Book. Find your email address in the following list and add it to your card in Address Book."
The email address used is the one on my "me" card.
It looks as if the problem is that the invitation has been sent out to a list and iCal appears to be unable to handle invitations that are sent to a list of addresses.
Is there any way to switch off this additional processing, so I can receive ICS invitations that have been sent to a list of email addresses?

Without actually seeing some of what is in the .ics attachment there's really no way to see what's going on.

    How do you get ical to show on your home screen? I deleted it from my homescreen (somehow) and i want to get it back.

    Just open the International preferences panel, go to Times, Customize, and click on the leftmost number (hours). A small triangle lights up, and a pop-up list of various formats opens. Just select the one you like (1-24 or 01-24). Make sure to set the Date & Time preferences to 24-hour clock first.

  • How do you get Firefox to remember the response sent to remember password for a site and then not ask the same question over and over?

    How do you get Firefox to remember the response sent to remember password for a web site and not ask over and over? The desktop version has a dialog box that you can check that says "Don't ask me this again". The mobile version doesn't. A real pain!
    Thankx

    You can switch off or uncheck the remember password in your settings :-)

  • HT2513 How do you get iCal to its original size after having asked it to fill the screen.

    The iCal now fills the whole screen and I do not see how you reduce the size.

    Mouse up to the top of the screen and then click the blue icon in the menu bar when it appears.
    Or you can press the escape key.

  • How do you get iCal on Snow Leopard to sync with iCloud

    My wife has a slightly older intel based iMac running Snow Leopard.  The machine is too old for Lion.  The family has been a long time user of MobileMe and we updated to iCloud when it was released.  This seems to have created a problem with iCal, which can't connect to an appropriate server.  I've tried two different servers that I have found mentioned in forums.
    p06-caldav.icloud.com
    caldav.icloud.com
    Neither of these worked.  Does anyone know what the correct server is?  Or has Apple intentially screwed us by deliberately making it incompatible?
    Thanks for any help anyone can provide.
    Rick

    Officially you can't sync calendars on Snow Leopard, but there are unofficial workarounds. In addition to the correct server address, you also need the dedicated number for your account.

  • How do you get Mountain Lion Mail to show sent email size?

    I upgraded to mountain lion I think a couple months ago so I don't remember exactly when I lost this feature, but in Snow Leopard for sure there was an option that when composing a new email, a little bar across the bottom of the email showed the size of your email so when you were adding attachments you could see the size your email was getting to be. I obviously haven't used that in a while because I ahvent' sent attachments in a long while, but I have recently started to do that again and tonight when I was adding files, there was no bar across the bottom of the email at all so I have no idea what size my email was. Even when I hit send and the progress bar in the bottom left of Mail ("Mail Activity") that use to show the file size right underneath the bar also now no longer shows the size so I have absolutely no idea how big the email I sent was.
    Can anyone tell me how to get the option back to show the email size of the mail your composing in that little bar on the bottom of your email as well as the file size to display as you are sending in "Mail Actiivity" window? Thanks so much if anyone can help. Thank you!

  • How do you get different check box fields to display based upon a list box selection?

    I am a relative newbie with LifeCycle Designer ES using v.8.2.1 to create interactive forms to replace manual hardcopies.  I am working on a form that has a few pull down list boxes.  I want different check box fields to display based upon the selection of an item from one of the pull down lists.
    Any guidance on the best way to accomplish this would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi,
    Here is a sample with script in the change event of the dropdown. You may want to clear previous checkbox choices once the subform is hidden.
    It is good to group objects in a subform - that way you only need to hide the subform and not each object in turn.
    Good luck,
    Niall

  • TS3999 How do you get info entered into iCal and Contacts on an equipped iPhone to push back to an equipped MacPro? so far it's only a one way street Macpro to phone, and that's not what I was told it would be.

    Hi, all.
    How do you get information entered into iCal and Contacts on an equipped iPhone to push to an equipped MacPro? So far it's been a one way street Macpro to phone, and that's not what I was told it would be. I've been through all settings on both devices and see no way to do this. Help! If I synch the old fashioned way, what's going to happen?

    First check that all your settings are correct, that contact syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
    Make sure the contacts you are adding are added to your 'iCloud' group and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud group (you can do this by checking in groups), non iCloud contacts will not sync.
    If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your contacts are in the iCloud group, you might try unchecking contact syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling contact syncing.
    First check that all your settings are correct, that calendar syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
    Make sure the calendars you are using are in your 'iCloud' account and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud account (you can do this by clicking/tapping the calendar button in the top left corner of the application ), non iCloud calendars will not sync.
    If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your calendars are in the iCloud account, you might try unchecking calendar syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling calendar syncing settings.

  • How do I get ical to stop popping up every time someone accepts an invitation

    How do I get ical to stop popping up every time someone accepts an invitation?
    Every time I get an someone accepts and ical invitation, the iCal app pops up over everything on my screen. I cannot find a way to turn off this behavior and it's amazingly disruptive.
    I do still want to be notified about up-coming meetings, and I still want invitations emailed to me to populate in my calendar, and I still want ical to capture if people have responded to my events…I just don’t want my calendar to take over my screen every time they do. 
    There does not seem to be anything in preferences that addresses this.
    HELP!

    This infuriates me too - I am really keen to find an answer to this! The notifications that appear 'Growl-like' in the top right corner are fine, it's the fact that iCal takes over the entire desktop and prevents me from working that really annoys me! Please, how do I turn that off?

  • How do I get iCal to sync to my iphone 4. It used to work and now it won't. Any suggestions will be most appreciated.

    How do I get iCal on my Mac to sync with my iphone 4.
    It used to work and now it doesn't.
    I am not on MobileMe or the Cloud.
    Any suggestions will be most appreciated.

    Hi Arezzo
    I'm asuming you are using iTunes then to sync? this can be done over WiFi or the USB cable.
    Review your setting for the calendar sync once iTunes is open and your iPhone is connected. Make sure your Calendars are selected to sync that you need. By default all calendars will.
    So the option i have for you is to reset the sync service and this will reset those settings in iTunes. Meaning that you will have to switch them on again in iTunes to sync. But this mostly clears unresolved sync issues.
    Please do yourself a favour and hit backup in iTunes before doing any testing. iTunes will then keep a local backup of your iPhone in case of any data loss.
    {added}
    open Terminal from your Utilities folder and paste this command in to reset. OS X 10.6 - 10.8
    /System/Library/Frameworks/SyncServices.framework/Versions/A/Resources/resetsync .pl full [press Enter]
    if it prompts for a password, just type your password and hit [Enter] again.
    Open iTunes then set your syncs up and it should then carry on again.

  • Hi, I have just purchased a ipad mini for my wife and have registered it in my name so that i can add some apps that i think she would appreciate. However if i want to contact her using face time it is registered in my name, how do you get around that?

    Hi I have just purchased an i pad for my wife and have registered it in my name to add some apps prior to giving the i pad to her. However, for using face time and games where you can link via wifi it will look as though there are two of the same, if I am trying to link her ipad to mine. How do you get around this?

  • TS3212 how do you get your itunes back if you uninstall in on your computer

    how do you get your itunes back if you uninstall in on your computer

    Does the book show in the Purchased tab in the ibookstore in the iBooks for downloading, and the amount that's come off your card is the book's price, it's not a temporary store holding charge (which should disappear within a few days or so) ?
    If it doesn't show in Purchased then you could check to see if it shows in your Purchaes history so that you can use the 'report a problem' link from it : log into your account on your computer's iTunes via the Store > View Account menu option and you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it ; click on that and you should see a list of your purchases ; find that song and use the 'Report a Problem' link and fill in details about the problem (iTunes support should reply within, I think, about 24 hours).
    If doesn't show there or the 'report a problem' link doesn't work (it's been taking some people to this site on a browser instead of showing a form in iTunes) then you can try contacting iTunes support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/- click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page.
    For the card being declined, if it's a debit card then I don't think that they are still accepted as a valid payment method - they are not listed on this page and there have been a number of posts recently about them being declined
    If it's a credit card then is it registered to exactly the same name and address (including format and spacing etc) that you have on your iTunes account, it was issued by a bank in your country and you are currently in that country ? If it is then you could check with the card issuer to see if it's them that are declining it, and if not then try contacting iTunes support as above and see if they know why it's being declined.

  • How can I get iCal not to show the same birthday dates from my iCloud

    How can I get iCal not to show the same birthday dates from my iCloud?

    You don't need them stored locally for a backup. You can manually export your contacts as archive for backup. Also, if you are backing up with Time Machine, you already have a backup. If your hard drive crashed, you would have to rely on your backup or iCloud anyway.
    So, if you're comfortable with that, sign out of iCloud. Choose to delete contacts from the computer. When you sign back into iCloud, you should only have iCloud contacts listed in AB. When you open iCal, you should only have one listing for birthdays.
    The other alternative is to disable the Birthday c.alendar and create one manually.
