Acceptances don't register - why? Plus other annoyances

I have no problem at all in swapping events with one user I work with closely - we invite one another, accept, refuse, update ... it all works like a dream by email.
But with the only other user I have tried this with, there are frequent difficulties. Sometimes he invites me to things, and I never see the invitation. Other times the invitation does get through, and it is wholly unclear what makes the difference. I sent him an invitation recently, and his acceptance arrived today. But although the mere arrival of his message highlights the event in iCal, I can click on the icon in his email as much as I like, and I get no notification of his acceptance - the name stays greyed out.
What is up? It seems there are a lot of people with similar issues, and they are not being answered. Is this a know issue? If so, why are we not hearing of a fix?

Q: Sometimes he invites me to things, and I never see the invitation.
A: Lost in space? Likely a spam filter issue somewhere, but let's defer that one
comment: I have checked my Spam filter - nothing there. I stress that this is an intermittent fault between the same two people.
Q:I sent him an invitation recently, and his acceptance arrived today. But although the mere arrival of his message highlights the event in iCal, I can click on the icon in his email as much as I like, and I get no notification of his acceptance - the name stays greyed out.
A: What way have you set in iCal's preferences "automatically retrieve invitations"?
Comment: currently set to ON for that option. But I have also tried with it off.
A: Please invite me to something - my email address is in my profile.
Comment: DONE! and many thanks for your help so far.

    Hi were you able to resolve yours?
    I was very worried losing all my medical stuff on my iPad Air 2, plus i have nothing to use for the next day! So i have to try all the possible things i read on the internet!! And this worked on my part (Thank God, and thank you Google)
    Perform a hard reboot
    Hold down the Home button and Power button on your iPhone or iPad and keep holding them until you see the Apple logo. Once you do, you can let go. When your device boots back up, go ahead and check to see if the apps have started re-downloading. If they still appear to be stuck, continue on.

  • In my Macbook Pro finder folder under All Images, there are duplicate files, but one is small and the other is full size. I wanted to clean up the files, but don't know why I have two of everything. Any Ideas?

    In my Macbook Pro, the Finder folder has duplicate images in the 'all images' file. One image is small and the other is full size. First question is why do I have two of every image? Why is one small and the other large. Do I need two of everything? If not, which do I delete?
    thanks, Jean

    Hello fane,
    Re: duplicate images in finder.
    Nearly all images are JPG with a few GIF and PNG sprinkled in.
    I opened the inspector so I do get info when opening each image, but it a slow process.
    It seems that one image is around 70k while its twin can be up to 4Mb which is what comes unedited from my camera. Sometimes there will be 3 or 4 identical images in finder, but when I open iPhoto to see what ‘s really in the file, I find only one image, and it’s full sized.
    Are all these extra images, even if they are aliases, taking up space on my drive? And should I delete them? The info bar says I have over 10,000 images, which is rather a lot  for what I do.
    I am unable to add the file size on the view menu as it is grayed out. Don’t know why it’s gray, but having that info on the screen would save a lot of time and fiddling with each image.
    I am trying to resize selected pix so I can upload them to e-bay, which requires less than 70k. I have looked at resizing programs but most are for PC platform and not Mac, so I am trying to resize in the finder window under tools. Tedious at best. Any suggestions will be appreciated
    Thanks for your help,

    My iPod touch bluetooth cannot discover my iPad nor mac air, but it can discover other devices... I don't understand why.  My Mac and my iPad can't discover it, as well...

    Thanks for this... I actually wanted to pair my iPad with my iPod touch so I can use the keynote remote app in my iPod touch to control my keynote presentations... I was able to control my presentations through wifi... I wanted to use the bluetooth since internet connection is quite slow.. The app tells me I can connect through bluetooth with my iPad but sadly, it can't... I've been trying to pair them but the can't discover each other... :(

    I don’t know why but  I create a WEB site and my friends who use a pc windows, have a lot of trouble when they open my movies.  The other friends who use Apple, they don’t have problem.  I have iMovie11 and my extension file is .m4v.  Is it because the extension .m4v is bad for windows ?

    No web site expert here but I would suggest changing the .m4v to .mp4 and ask one of those friends if they still have problems.  .m4v is something I always associate with iTunes and don't really see it used elsewhere.

    Other is usually around 1 GB...
    A  ' Large Other ' usually indicates Corrupt Data...
    First Try a Restore from Backup... But... if the Large Other Persists, that is an Indicator of Corrupt Data in the Backup... Then a Restore as New is the way to go...

  • Why is this an error???  I don't understand why it is... Help Please

    Hi,
    Ok, I'll preface this by saying there's a lotta code pasted in here but it really quite an easy question, I just need to post all the code so you understand where what came from.
    Now.............the question I'm trying to do is to create an applet that has 2 buttons -- each button when clicked opens an application (one is a simple calculator, the other a Mortgage calculation app). When you click one of the buttons (calc or mortgage), that app opens infront of the 2 button menu so its in "focus". The button on the 2 button menu then switches to a "hide app X" button (ie: "Mortgage", changes to "Hide Mortgage"). Thus if you click the hide button, the app that was opened is hidden, and then that "hide" button switches back to the original "app X" button. Pretty simple.
    Now, I have from my text book an example that does exactly this, with the simple calculator already in it, and with another app (a traffic light thing) where the Mortgage should be in my final product. I also already have the Mortgage applet I need to insert from another book example in place of that Traffic Light portion.
    Now, common sense would dictate that I should be able to just copy my code for the Mortgage applet into the example that has the 2 button menu structure, and overwrite the code I want to get rid of (the traffic light) with the mortgage code & rename the menu buttons. Right?? A simple switch of one thing for another... but therein lies my problem.
    I copied all the Mortgage code in correctly over the traffic lights, switched the button names, tried to compile it but I get one error....
    Exercise12_17.java:52: cannot resolve symbol
    symbol  : method pack ()

            mortgageAppletFrame.pack();I don't understand why..... mortgageAppletFrame.pack(); was a simple rewrite from lightsFrame.pack(); like every other line...... it should work. I've gone over it for 2 days......... Anyone know why it comes up as an error???
    Below, in order going down is (1)my code with the 1 error I can't solve, (2)the original menu example I tried to edit, and (3)the Mortgage app code...........
    Does anyone know what my error is?? Help or a hint would be greatly appreciated........ Thanks.

    Does it have to be an applet?
    If you want the same behaviour as in the code with traffic lights, change
    class MortgageApplet extends JApplet implements ActionListener {
    to
    class MortgageApplet extends JFrame implements ActionListener {
    and change
    public void init() {
    to
    public MortgageApplet() {

  • When i try to send email from my ipad i get the message The recipient "£)()&&£)" was rejected by the server. This has only just started to happen and I don't know why. Please help. I have tried lots of things now and cannot solve it.

    "Your email account" means to tap on the name of your email account. Whatever it is listed as in the settings.
    In my mail settings, one of my email accounts is a Comcast account. I tap on the Comcast name and it brings up this window.
    Then I tap on the arrow under the Outgoing mail server smtp setting to get to the next window.
    In the resulting window, I then tap on the arrow next to the smtp server under the Primary Server setting.
    That brings up this window in which I check to make sure that my user name and password have been entered correctly. If those items are missing, enter them in the appropriate fields and then tap done.

  • After shutting down my iMac last night, Firefox will not open this morning and I don't know why?

    My iMac is set to open to my home page My Yahoo with Firefox browser. This morning my Firefox browser is not opening and I don't know why? It does open on my new MacBook Air as per usual. I click on the icon but it does not respond even though I have opened it. this has never happened to me before and I don't know why it's happening now. I did a clean reinstall but that didn't work. Now what?????? With the add-on Troubleshooter should I have asked this question on my iMac using Safari? I am on my MacBook Air asking it.

    Actually it does open but nothing shows up. I can't use my iMac unless I use the Safari browser and I want to use Firefox! I'm at my wits end as to how to fix this. I have tried everything that troubleshooting has suggested on Mozilla support. Help!!!!!!!!
