Ical Server Snow Leopard email notification: just a clarification question.

Hi,
I succesfully installed my mac mini snow leo server.
Our scenario: icalserver calendar is used by 4 clients in our network.
ical server is running fine, but there is one thing I
do not understand: the workflow of email notification.
On the server I enabled email notification and set up an email adress [email protected] in Server Admin / Emailnotification.
Then I created a test event in ical. I did not use the local calendar,
I used the caldav calendar.
Then I was wondering: why did mail start on mini server to send the invitation ?
Email data is still stored in Server Admin / Email notification, so I assume email is sent independently in the backgound from any mail programm !??!
It would be nice if anybody could give me any advice.
Thanks

Invitations are sent to external email recipients directly by the server posting them to a known mail queue, (probably in your case on the same mini). There is a calendar server manual online which explains, and calendarserver.org where the project is based. I was only able to make it work using the internal account names, not a friendly one I set up for the purpose.

I am unable to sync my iPhone4 iCal to my Mac iCal. Snow Leopard does not support the Cloud. What do I do?

I am unable to sync my iPhone4S iCal to my Mac iCal. Snow Leopard is my OS and it does not support the cloud. What do I do?

To makeuse of iCloud you will have to upgrade your Mac to Lion or Mountain Lion, provided it meets the requirements.
The requirements for Lion are:
Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Xeon processor
2GB of memory
OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
7GB of available space
To purchase it you will have to ring Apple at the number given at the bottom left of this page.
The requirements for Mountain Lion are listed here:
http://www.apple.com/osx/specs/
It is available from the Mac App Store (in Applications).
You should be aware that PPC programs (such as AppleWorks) will not run on Lion or above; and some other applications may not be compatible - there is a useful compatibility checklist at http://roaringapps.com/apps:table

I need to update my operating system from 10.5.8 to 10.6, I believe its the one before snow leopard and is just called leopard.

i need to update my operating system from 10.5.8 to 10.6 on my mac mini, I believe its the one before snow leopard and is just called leopard.

You seem to have your OS's confused.   Your profile says 10.6 but you are asking to update from 10.5.8.
10.5.8 is Leopard.   It is also the highest level of Leopard you can achieve.
10.6.(x) is Snow Leopard.   And 10.6.8 is the highest level you can achieve.
If you have 10.6 then all you will need to do is download and apply the combo updater.
If you have 10.5.8, then you will need to review the machine ... Mac OS X v10.6 Snow Leopard -Read the Technical Specifications
Subject the machine will take it, you will then need to buy Snow Leopard from your National on-line Apple store.
Before you start upgrading, back up your files.   If you are unsure how best to do this, the following link is hugely informative.   Most commonly used backup methods: Apple Support Communities
Once you have upgraded to Snow Leopard, your upgrade will take you to 10.6.3 and you then will need to apply the Combo updater. Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1
and follow with software updates to pick up the most recent security and iTunes updates.
This will give you the best and highest level includine the App Store.
Good luck.

Upgrade mysql in Mac Os Server Snow Leopard 10.6.8

Hi
The built in mysql server on Mac Os Server Snow Leopard 10.6.8 that I have bought is 5.0, I need to upgrade it to 5.5, how do I do that?
I followed these instructions
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4006
Everything went smoothly except that the server is not upgraded still the same version.
Thanks

Chris is right. The only way, you can upgrade to 5.5 is by doing it manually. Apple will probably update to a later version with Lion. But MySQL version updates have been rare in the past.
Installing a different version is pretty straightforward, but you can not use SA anymore and have to configure the php, apache in the correct way. There are plenty of links out there which can help you.
So long.

How can I transfer my Entourage 2004 (Snow Leopard) emails to my new MacBookPro (Lion)

Just got a new 15" MacBook Pro (Lion) and would like to move my saved emails from my older Intel MacBook Pro 17" (Snow Leopard). I enabled sharing, but cannot open Entourage or find a way to import or export the emails. I can copy the archived emails file to the new computer, but there's no way to get the emails into Mail. I read that getting a trial in MSFT Office 2011 and importing the emails to Outlook from the saved archives might be the only solution.
Before I go through this process, I'd like to ask if there's any other way to accomplish this migration.

Copy the Microsoft User Data folder to the new computer's /Home/Documents/ folder. Open Mail and select Import Mailboxes from the File menu. Click the radio button for Entourage and follow instructions. Similarly, you can import contacts into Address Book and, I think, iCal.
Correction:
iCal will import from Entourage. However, Address Book does not in a similar way. You need to create a vCard file from Entourage itself. If I remember correctly you can create a temporary folder, then export your Entourage contacts as vCards and save in the folder. Transfer the folder to the new computer. Open Address Book. Open the folder of vCards. Select all of them and drag the selection into Address Books list section - the middle section.

Snow Leopard Email Issues -totally lost, need help

I am a fairly new iMac user so please answer with a "dummies" version.
OK, I installed Snow Leopard and have had issues sending email. I have Verizon DSL - who in their ultimate wisdom just made some changes on Sept. 1 and are now blocking port 25. I have a .mac email account that seems to be working ok, but the smtp settings are for .me and I can't change anything because it's all greyed out. I also have several AOL accounts that used to arrive on my mac with no issues, and I could send email from them as well. I now have difficulty sending email and must enter a password every time (annoying to say the least). At first, I thought I had a Verizon problem, so I followed Verizon's instructions and changed the port setting to 527 (or close to it, I don't exactly remember but it was the correct setting specified by Verizon) but after that I couldn't even get my email so I changed it back to port 993. I guess my biggest problem is trying to figure out who screwed up the email - is it Snow Leopard, Is it Verizon, is it AOL???? All I know is I'm at my wits end of what to do and how to do it. I thought about deleting all the accounts and starting over but I don't want to lose all my past messages. If anyone has any suggestions I'll be happy to try something different... please remember baby steps needed here. Thanks ever so much!

Hello, and welcome to the Discussions.
First of all, any place you are observing to see Port 993 is probably the location of the port for the Incoming Server -- 993 would never work for the Outgoing. Are you seeing that at Mail Preferences/Accounts/Advanced?
To adjust the port setting for Outgoing Servers, then in Mail Preferences/Accounts/Account Information click on the arrows beside the name of the SMTP and choose Edit Server List. Once in that window, and if the name of the server is correctly entered, click on the Advanced Tab. Once under that tab, then for the MobileMe account (.mac/.me) choose Use Custom Port, enter 587, and furthermore enter the Username and Password. Do similarly for the Verizon account -- check or not check to use SSL per Verizon's advice. The AOL account will probably work with Use Default Port, and not SSL.
Keep us posted.

Syncing iCal on Snow Leopard MBpro with Lion machines

I upgraded my iMac and MBAir to Lion and went on iCloud to sync calendars with my old MBpro which can only go up to Snow Leopard. The two Lion Macs sync fine, but the Snow Leopard one wont sync and in preferences it says my accounthas 'been upgraded to iCloud'. Is there anyway to make the Snow Leopard machine sync through iCloud?
thanks
Doug

The official answer is that iCloud requires Lion and you can't sync your calendar with Snow Leopard.
The unofficial answer is that a workaround has been suggested, and has worked at least for some people:
Go to iCal preferences.
Set up new account.
Account Type: CalDAV
User Name: Your MobileMe / iCloud email address
Password: Your password for above
Server Address: p06-caldav.icloud.com
This page give a similar process with some more details which may or may necessary:
http://hints.macworld.com/article.php?story=20111014102515403&msg=15
I haven't tried any of this and have no idea whether or how well it works. BACK UP YOUR CALENDARS BEFORE PROCEEDING!

Project Server 2013 and email notifications

Hi,
Newbie's question: is it possible to set email notifications in Project Server 2013 without Exchange Server, just with gmail or hotmail?
Is there somewhere a document for that?
Thanks

Hi Robert,
Here is the
documentation for configuring email notifications. I might be wrong and it has to be tested but the destination email could be any email address, you just have to enter a gmail or hotmail address in the resource
email field.
Hope this helps,

Sinc iCal from Snow Leopard mac with iCloud

Since long having a .mac account and moved to Mobile Me account, my 3 macs upgraded to Snow Leopard, recently to OS X Lion. But 1 iMac has a 2 GHz Intel Core Duo Processor and can't be updated to Lion. Meanwhile my Mobile Me account is moved to an iCloud account. This leaves my older iMac out of synchronization with my iCal calendar.
Is there still a way to synchronze my 3 Macs? I would be very disappointed for upgrading to the newest system "enhancements" if it isn't.
Thank you beforehand for any reply.
Jerome Maeckelbergh, Belgium

Yes there is. I found a way to synchronize, but take care very much.
You just can migrate your MobileMe account also in Snow Leopard to iCloud. My result was that much calender entries showed double. Making visible-invisible different agenda accounts, I thought to be sure which to delete. Not only the doubles were away, but also half of my agenda entries. After entering again future agenda points (my wife luckily also keeps an antique agenda, such a small booklet with hand written notes, remember that?), this problem was solved and iCal is synchronizing again between my "old" Snow Leopard iMac, my Lion iMac and my Lion MacBook Air.

Help with CF9 Standard Install and Mac OS Server (Snow Leopard Server)

Hello,
I recently purchased a mac mini server (with snow leopard server) and will be using it to host my CF9 applications. This install is WAY different than the install needed on a windows machine. I tried to install it once and somehow hosed up Apache and now I can't even get it to start up (apache). So I am having the colo company to do a full restore of the server and I took notes on the Mac Server install and below is the questions I have.
1.) Since Snow Leopard Server comes with Apache webserver, it is what CF wants to use. This is fine, I just need to know where these things are...
It is asking for the Configuration Directory: I'm guessing it is /private/etc/apache2 ? Right or Wrong???
2.) It is asking for Directory and file name of server binary: It currently defaults to /usr/sbin/httpd is this right or should I point it to another directory?
3.) It is asking for Directory and file name of server script: It currently defaults to /usr/sbin/apachectl is this right or should I point it to another directory?
It also wants the location where I can place the CFIDE. Can I place this anywhere I wish or is there a preferred location to point this to?
and finally, I have CF9 Standard, so on the mac server should I install it as a server configuration (self contained instance) or Enterprise Multiserver config. I was reading online that its better to install as an Enterprise Multiserver setup, but I don't know if this will work for me since I'm useing the standard edition.
Please Help ANYONE, if you have mac os experience and installing CF9 onto a mac server
Thanks

I have been getting this exact same problem. CF installer is somehow writing some invalid information into the httpd.conf file. I was able to replace the httpd.conf file with the default one, and was able to go through the webconnector process again and (sometimes randomly) it works. I also spent about 4 hours on the line with adobe CF support and made no progress beyond what I'll post here .
To answer your questions about file locations:
/private/etc/apache2/ for the httpd.conf files
/usr/sbin/ for both the apachectl and the httpd binaries
Although I'm able to get past where you are, and it seems to work correctly, Immediately upon adding a new site via server admin it all breaks. Coldfusion then will only work if I manually go to a cfm document. For example: http://example.com/ will give me the raw text from the (default index) index.cfm file. But typing http://example.com/index.cfm works.
I am lost here as well. After 4 hours on the phone with adobe support I would have hoped it would be an easy fix. I've completely nuked and reinstalled the server from scratch with the exact same results both times.
Does anyone have the slightest clue about what may be going on here?

Mini Mac 10.4.11 to Mini Mac Server Snow Leopard

Im interesting in getting a 2010 mini mac with server.
BUT I have a mini mac 10.4.11 with photoshop, lightroom,etc. (Actions,history, etc)
I know that I can't transfer from 10.4.11 to Snow Leopard, Do I HAVE TO upgrade the Snow Leopard onto my OLD Mini Mac 10.4.11 and then get Firewire Cable to trasfer my Applications such as Photoshop and Lightroom over no problem?
It would be a pain in the a** to do all over again with those install adobe,etc!
Hope theres something to make my life abit easy!
Cheers!

No, you do not have to upgrade the older Mac mini to Snow Leopard in order to migrate your stuff to the new mini. However, Adobe products are some of the hardest to migrate because they have files spread all over the place and sometimes they do not all get migrated. Many folks find that everything works better with a fresh install on the new computer with 3rd party applications, like Adobe.
Your older Mac mini may have FireWire 400 and the new Mac mini has FW800, so you will need the proper cable, FW400 to FW800 to connect the two minis with FW. But you can also migrate over a wireless connection or an Ethernet connect as well. The latter two are just slower than FW.

HP 2101nw Wireless G Print Server & Snow Leopard (OS X 10.6)

Hi everyone,
Before I start, I must point out that I have a Win 7 laptop connected to the HP Photosmart C5280 with the HP 2101nw Wireless G Print Server perfectly.
Appears that Snow Leopard is not compatible with ths device. The Hp Connection Manager 'sees' the printer, but I am not able to connect to it.
The drivers on the CD and online mention that it will work woth 10.4 and 10.5, but no mention of 10.6 (I am on 10.6.5). However, installing it from the .dmg file on the drivers page, I get The system extension "/System/Library/Extensions/HPVUSBFamily.kext" was installed improperly and cannot be used. Please try reinstalling it, or contact the product's vendor for an update.
Just wondering if anyone from HP can confirm this is a driver being worked on, or is this device 'obsolete'?
Regards,
Stephen

Same problem here. New imac with Snow Leopard (10.6.6). Previously working with 10.5 on MacBook Pro.
As for 'Shogan' above - The Hp Connection Manager 'sees' the printer, but I am not able to connect to it.
I reinstalled software/drivers from the .dmg file on the HP support page, I get The system extension "/System/Library/Extensions/HPVUSBFamily.kext" was installed improperly and cannot be used.
I can select the printer from the Connection manager list but the printer remains 'offline' and the 'Status: Idle'
Come on customer support.....give these customers some....well, support.

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.
See: http://hints.macworld.com/article.php?story=20111014102515403 for instructions.

ICal Events on Tiger Not Showing Up in iCal on Snow Leopard

Don't know that I've noticed this before but calendar events I insert on iCal running on 10.4.11 (Tiger) do not appear after syncing in iCal on my laptop running Snow Leopard. What gives?
Joe

Let me try to clarify what you want to do. You want the Events and Albums in your iPhoto library on your Mac to be synced to your mobile devices, right?
Do you have this box checked in iPhoto's iCloud preference pane?
That will upload all of the new photos you've added to the library to the Photo Stream.
If the iPad isn't picking them up try disabling the Photo Stream on the iPad and then reenable it.
