Accepting calendar invites puts appointment at wrong time

When I get a calendar invite via Mail on my iPhone 3GS (iOS 6.1.3) and accept it, it puts
the appointment in the calendar based on the invite time basis (eastern time) rather than converting it
to my iPhone time zone (mountain time).    If I pull that same email invite up on my iMac Mail program and click on the
link then accept it, iCal on the iMac places it at the right time.   And, when I sync the iPhone with the iMac, the appointments transfer correctly.
I have time zone support on settings set to mountain time on the iPhone.   Is there some other setting I have to make to
have the iPhone "read" these invites correctly? Any clues as to getting this corrected would be appreciated.

Hello Bruce,
Thank you for posting in the Apple Support Communities. You may need to turn off the Time Zone Support for the calendar entries to match your current time zone on your iPhone:
If you do not use Time Zone Support, your iOS device will default to the current clock setting. iOS devices that are location aware will automatically set their time zone, date, and time using Location Services. You can verify your current date and time settings in Settings > Date & Time.
To disable Time Zone Support for calendars
Tap Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
Scroll down to Calendars.
Tap Time Zone Support.
Slide the slider for Time Zone Support to OFF.

iOS: How to adjust Time Zone Support for calendars

I hope this helps get you back on track!
All the best,

How to accept calendar invitation on a new email address ?

So have my apple id email address, calendar ... But just got a new email address and would like to be able to accept calendar invitation on this new email address. How to I link that new email address to my existing apple id/calendar ?

It is not clear what steps you have actually taken so excuse this if you have already got it covered...
Once you have postfix confiured to accept submissions on another port then it should only need incoming traffic on that port to be port-forwarded to the server where postfix is listening for it. So if your server is also doing the firewall interface to net, then simply opening the required port should be enough.
Have you configured postfix's master.cf file to accept alternative port submissions?...

Accepting calendar invites with 2 exchange accounts on iPhone?

My setup:
iphone 4S - 5.1.1
2 Exchange server accounts (1 home, 1 work).
When I get sent a calendar invite from Work, I accept it on my iPhone and it goes back to sender with my personal email address. How do I prevent this? It didn't use to do this, it would accept the calendar invite and return with the work email.
Help??

When you accept the appointment, is it in your business calender or in the private one?
When it goes back, is it your e-mail-adress or the signature that is wrong (you know, only one signature for both accounts unless you update to iOS6, which can handle separate sigs for each acccount).
I recommend setting your business calender as default (Settings>Mail, contacts...>Calender>"Default"

Mailed iCal attachment shows right date but clicking will put appointment on wrong year, month and day. Even names involved are wrong!

Running Mountain Lion on MacBook Air and MacBook Pro. Suddenly a mailed iCal attachment showing the right date, time and attendees ends up years and months off on iCal with totally wrong attendiees, when clicked in Mail. iCal synced to iCloud. This may be very trivial for some of you but I need help, please.
Thank you.

I ran into this exact issue after migrating a time machine backup from an older macbook air to a new macbook pro.
The following steps solved my issue:
1) Backup your current mac
2) Create a new user account on your mac, and login to that account.
3) While logged into the new user account, right click the time machine drive and select "get info" > Click the lock icon at the lower right corner so that you can make permission changes. Then Click on the "+" sign and add your new user account to the "Sharing & Permissions" window. Be sure to grant your new user "Read & Write" privileges and when you have done so, click on the down arrow and select "apply to enclosed items" This step will allow you to copy the library folder from your old user account to the new account without hitting any permission issues.
4) Download "TinkerTool" (An application that allows you to enable the viewing of any and all hidden files and folders on your local or mounted hard drives) and check the box that reads "Show Hidden and System Files" and then click "Relaunch Finder.
5) Lastly copy the Library folder from the older user account on the time machine backup drive to the new user's library folder. Also be sure to copy your Desktop, Documents, Pictures, and Music folders to the new account as well. Open Mac mail and follow the instructions to import the previous accounts mail messages. Once you receive future ics attachments or calendar invites you should be able to click on them and load the proper date and time within your iCal application.
This worked for me and I hope it works for you.
Thanks,

Accepted calendar invites notification.

I am using iPhone 4S on iOS 6.0.1.
I find it weird that when I send out calendar invites to my friends I don't receive any notification on their reply for that invite.
For example:-
My wife accepted the invite but I do not get any notification she has replied "Accepted" unless I go into the calendar and view that particular event I have created to invite her.
My notification is turned on even at locked screen so I should be able to receive all notifications for the calendar but I didn't get the notification from her Accepted reply.
Anyone having the same problem? Anyone knows how to set this right?
Thanks!

Sorry, wunder. I only just saw your reply to this. Yes, I'm still experiencing the same problem. The only workaround I've found is to enter a duplicate appointment.

What can I do to accept calendar invitations when I receive an error message 403?

Freqently, when I try to accept a calendar invitation from someone, I receive the message error noted below. It gives me the options to: ignore, try again or revert to server. I want to keep the item in my calendar but I keep getting this error message that demands a response. It pops up repeatedly and is very annoying.
"The Server responded with an Error. Access to “xyz Meeting” in “Work” in account “iCloud” is not permitted. The server responded: “403” to operation CalDAVWriteEntityQueueableOperation."

Interesting suggestion, but it's not clear to me how I would do that if I'm not using an "(at) icloud.com" email address/account. I am having the same problem with changed invitations that come from an organizer who is using Google Apps. My email account is hosted at my ISP - it's not obvious to me how I can use iCloud to access that email account (and therefore the changed invitation). Suggestions?

Accepting calendar Invitations and IOS8.02

Since upgrading to iOS 8.02 on my iPad Air i have noticed numerous calendar invitations from my wife that appear in my calendar but when I click OK I am not able to accept them. I was able to accept them on my iPhone 6 and iCloud.com but not on the iPad Air. I have had the same problem with other appointments where I could accept them on the iPad Air but not on the iPhone 6. The invitation appears in the calendar but I still have the INBOX (1), indicating the invitation was not accepted. Killing the calendar app and rebooting all devices has not solved the issue. Also accepting them in iCloud.com has not solved the problem.

I have the same issue. It seems crazy to go to the trouble of setting up MobileMe calendars to enable them to be accessed from Mac, iPhone, iPad etc yet only be able to add an received invitation to a calendar on the Mac with no apparent way of moving it into one of the MobileMe calendars. Even odder as one can create a new event in an "On My Mac" calendar and later move it to an "[email protected]" calendar. Why not a received event?
I hope I am missing something. Any ideas out there?

TS3999 My iPhone 5 is no longer able to accept calendar invitations. When I click on accept nothing appears in my calendar

Never done this before. Hope someone can answer my question. My calendar on my iPhone won't show accepted invitations on my calendar anymore. Seems like it stopped working after update last fall

You're welcome. There are many blurred lines with respect to iOS 8 photo management -- i.e. is the photo actually on the device, or only in iCloud? If it is in iCloud only, and you put it into an album on the iPhone, does it get downloaded to the device and is it still full resolution?
Part of the problem may be that there are still some unfinished things with respect to photos. The "iCloud Photo Library" feature seen in pre-iOS 8 release is still in beta form, so whenever that gets full release there could be some sense in all this. There's also the pending replacement of iPhoto and Aperture on the Mac platform, slated to be replaced by a new "Photo" app, so that may play into the big picture on photo management.
But for the time being, I don't feel that the changes to photo management in iOS 8/ iCloud have been for the better. I can only hope that we get a more elegant photo management process with these pending changes.

Why won't my 3GS accept calendar invites?

I'm using an Exchange server through work. I have made sure that my email address matches up between the Exchange server and my settings. I'm receiving all of my emails, and i'm receiving invitations to meetings - but when I "accept" them from the iPhone: 1) it no longer shows as tentative on my iPhone calendar, which is correct; but 2) when I tap on the calendar item, it opens to the invitation again, rather than opening the actual calendar item. Any suggestions on how I can fix this?
The reason it's a problem is that people include the dial-in information to conference calls in the "notes" field in outlook, and you can't see that on the invitation on the phone.
Thanks!

bumping - anyone have any thoughts? Thanks.

Cannot accept Calendar Invitations in ical Caldav calendar

Hi,
I have a SL server with Ical2 server. In my client I set up the caldav calendar (not subscribe). When I get a mail with invitation, and I click twice the invite doesn't appear in my caldav calendar, but if I drag it, It works good, but I cannot accept, decline the invitation. When I press accept It doesn't send any respones to the sender. What is the problem?
thx

I have this issue too. It seems that this may be a limitation of iCal or iCal Server

Exchange 2010 Calendar & invite time issue

I have started getting complaints from some users indicating that when they accept calendar invites, they sometimes are out of sync by an hour. Normally, when you look at two users calendars, you are looking at it in your timezone, and as such, any meetings
or invites that you have in common would appear on the same line.
What we see is in some cases, they are an hour apart, and it does not seem to matter if both people are in the same time zone or a different one. In one case, one user is in MST and the other is in EST, in another, both are in MST, and when I look at two
users calendars that are showing hte issue, I can see it and I'm in CST. I have also looked at the calendars in OWA, so it does appear to be something server-side.
It also does not appear to be all the time. Sometimes they will go through properly, and other times, they come through wrong. Sometimes when the organizer updates the meeting and sends the update, it fixes it on the other person's calendar.
I've looked around and there oare other similar issues, one of which indicated installing KB2863058 and rebooting the server fixed it, but that KB is applied on my server (Was applied in September), and while it may or may not be installed on the clients
that are affected, near as I can tell, that KB has no effect on US time zones, so that *shouldn't* be causing this.
I've also read about multiple copies of CDO.DLL causing it, but the only copy was found in 'C:\Program Files (x86)\ExchangeMapi' (I have BES 5 on the server, although technically, I could remove it if not needed as no one is using Blackberries any more).
There are a bunch of 'cdosys.dll' and 'cdosys.dll.mui. All of the 'cdosys.dll' have a modified date of 6/6/2012 with two sized: one for the 64-bit version and one for the 32-bit version.
Has anyone seen this kind of issue before? Any thoughts to a cause and resolution?

Hi,
Do all the calendar invites show incorrect times or some specific ones?
As what Ed says, please
check the time, time zone and daylight savings time
settings
respectively in Windows
Control Panel’s Date and Time applet of all computers, OWA settings,
Outlook Options. Make sure that they are the same values. Also check whether the invites are sent by the same organizer.
If all configurations are proper, please create a new calendar invites respectively in OWA and Outlook. Then send it to the problematic users to check whether the issue persists.
Thanks,

Can't accept outlook invites in iPhone calendar app

Hi everyone,
Here's my problem: I have been using my iPhone 4 for about a year now, syncing the calendar via MobileMe first and then via iCloud. All this time I haven't been able to accept calendar invites on my phone. The functionality on my phone in steps:
I receive an Outlook invite as email, open the mail, scroll to bottom, open the ICS attachment.
The attachment opens up showing organiser, invitees, time, etc. In the bottom I have a button "Add to calendar"
I press the "Add to calendar" and the event display closes, I'm back in my mail app. Apparently, when I press "add to calendar" an automated reply is sent, saying I've tentatively accepted. I have to wait until I'm at my MacBook to accept or reject the meetings.
Any ideas on how and where I could fix this? Is this a setup issue?
So, I'm using iPhone 4 with a MacBook, both about a year old. All software is updated, syncing via iCloud.

Hello Nelson,
On Lightning, to create your calendar access you need to fill an address like the following one:
http://<hostsname>:<port>/caldav/<organization>t/principals/individuals/<username>
On your browser --> http://hostaname:port/caldav
Then you need to proceed with the authentication, then after the organisation name choose
- principals
- individuals
- you should see the <username> value
- and then you will see the CalDav url you need to enter in Lightning to access your Calendar. From this point you should be able to see all the meeting created on Outlook and accept the future invitation.
Hope that answer your question
Regards
Fred

When declining a calendar invite, how do I propose an alternative time or add a note?

Using Apple's calendar, how do I decline a calendar invite and propose an alternative time and include a note?

No, I seemed to only get the three options Accept, Decline and Maybe. There are times when I want to decline with a note of why or decline and propose a different time.

Can't forward Calendar Invites

I have been a Blackberry user and have made the switch. One thing I can not seem to do is...once a receive a calendar event (from outlook) on my I-Phone. I can't forward it to anyone if I want to invite them as well. It does not give me the option to do so. I can do this with the Blackberry. Can someone advise?

Hmm,
Well you can accept calendar invites on the iPhone since 2.0 if you're using Exchange, but 3.0 added the ability send calendar invites from the phone with Exchange.
If you can't send or receive calendar invites by MobileMe it kind of puts a lie to the "MobileMe is exchange for the masses" comment from the keynote speeches doesn't it Maybe in 3.1 we'll see it, and maybe in 3.1 we'll be able to Sync Notes by MobileMe as well cough.

Can't send calendar invites with mobileme sync ?

Hi,
I have an iPhone with OS 3.0, I'm using MobileMe to sync Calendars and Contacts with my Mac over the air and it's working well.
One of the new features for OS 3.0 for MS Exchange was to be the ability to send calendar invites from the phone - something not possible in 2.0.
However unless I'm mistaken it is still impossible to send calendar invites with MobileMe directly from the phone ?
If I then go into iCal on the Mac and add invitees to the event that was created on the Phone, iCal can send invites, and when I check back on the phone it now shows the invitees and whether they have accepted or not, but now the Edit button is gone for this calendar entry making further edits from the phone impossible, including even deleting the event.
Huh ?
It seems crazy that the phone is able to display the invite status but can't edit it, especially if that feature is now available with Exchange. Or have I missed something ?
Regards,
Simon
