Calendar can't decline the event "(null)" on the exchange server

How can I make this error message go away for good?

There was a flaw in my thinking: In Apple Mail, there is no "folder configuration" data which could get lost.  (Contrary to some other email clients which I use, e.g. KMail on Linux, where you can configure additional properties that are not stored on the server side.)
So I also went the hard route and removed the account, then re-configured it.  Note that disabling the calendar in the account settings does not fix the problem at all (also not in conjunction with restarting iCal or OS X).
Furthermore, I unsuccessfully tried to remove the files responsible for this.  I found that ~/Library/Calendars is the correct location, that one needs to look for folders with the .exchange extensions (if there are several ones, one may look inside the Info.plist for the display name), but even completely removing these folders would not help: The information is kept in the "Calendar Cache" (SQLite) database, and if one (re)moves that one, the complete configuration / calendar list is lost, even if one keeps the folders.  Thus, if nobody finds out how to modify the database in order to get rid of the faulty entries (which would be Apple's job), I don't see any other easy way out than the ugly solution pointed out several times above.
The problem is that the faulty entry obviously aborts / blocks further synchronization, so I did miss some appointment because it would not show up in my calendar due to the sync problems (displayed also with the "bolt" icon).

  • Can I install the Exchange Server 2010 from my SBS2011 onto a sceond server, whilst still keeping the SBS2011 ?

    Hi,
    My customer currently has an HP Proliant ML350p G8 running SBS2011.
    What they want to do is install the whole Exchange Server 2010 onto a second server which is running Server 2008 R2 Standard which is on the domain as an additional Domain Controller.
    Is this possible ??
    Many thanks

    Hi melbernai - not sure if you've solved this problem yet. I had the exact same problem recently with my 2nd Gen iPod Nano. I solved it yesterday by simply updating iTunes to the most recent version, after which I could get rid of the register screen. The only other thing I needed to do to add my custom playlists was select "Manually manage music" on the screen for my iPod, since it had been in an automatic synching mode since the problem occurred.

  • Our exchange server crashed and we lost all contact and calendar data.  We found an app to get the contacts off of people's phone to import but can't find the same for calendar.  How do I get my calendar info off my phone and in to new exchange server?

    You'd have to think through this, but it seems like if you are using Outlook, and the items vanished from the Outlook client as well as the server,that you could re-populate Outlook using iTunes. 

  • Ical can´t save the event "event name" to the exchange server

    I have been trying to set up iCal to work with exchange in several Macs runnig Snow Leopard but there seems to be some time zone issue.
    When I try to save a new event, I get a error: iCal can't save the event "event name" to the exchange server. The account "account name" currently can't be modified, to discard...       If I change the city in time zone preferences to anything outside Mexico (for example Dallas Tx.) then everything works perfect, the problem is all of my users are in Mexico City aund using CST instead may cause other problems.
    I have tried with time zone support enabled and also disabled.
    Something very odd is that existing events can be modified or deleted, even with the city set to Mexico in time zone preferences.
    ¿Any suggestions?

    UPDATE 2: Found aother post that explains that this problem was fixed by enabling time zone support in iCal and then changing the city to the correct one by clicking in the upper right corner of iCal´s window where the time zone is displayed.  https://discussions.apple.com/message/10108361#10108361
    Well, I followed instructions mentioned above. By clicking on the upper right corner, a new window opens showing current iCal time zone settings (Not the same as Mac OS), in this window, time zone seems right (CDT), but as closest city, "UTC-UTC" is selected, so I change this to México and click OK, but the problem continues. If I go back to this iCal´s time zone window, "UTC-UTC" is still selected! and no mater how many times i change it back, after clicking OK, "UTC-UTC" comes back!.
    Something else I just found out is that if the city is changed to anything outside Mexico within the same time zone in system preferences, as I mentioned before I can save events, but now in the upper right corner of iCal, I have two different CDT´s, one named "CDT Central Time" (the one that works) and other named "CDT Central Standard Time" (the one that doesn't).
    My guess is that because daylight saving start and finish dates in Mexico are different from USA's, Apple created a different time zone with Mexico's rules (CDT CentralStandard Time) but something is wrong with it.

    It could be the fact that your hosts file is directing itself to gs.apple.com Cydia not gs.apple.com Apple,

  • Display name of shared calendar in Outlook clients after name change on the Exchange Server

    I have changed the name of a conference room resource calendar on the Exchange server but the name change is not being reflected in the end user's Outlook clients. I tested a remove/re-add and that worked but I cannot have everyone in the company do this.
    Is there anyway to force the change down to the Outlook clients?

    I don't know for sure, but if this is the case, then it's highly likely that the GUID is used by the client after its first view of the calendar.  From that point on, it appears it doesn't "revisit" the directory for updated names. 
    We'd need Outlook team feedback for confirmation.

  • Can not specify the SMTP server port, username and password for my SharePoint 2013 web application

  • How can i solve the vpn server could not be found error on my iphone 5s?

    how can i solve the vpn server could not be found error on my iphone 5s?

    FWIW, back at work we have a Palo Alto Networks firewall and VPN. Have configured both the iPhone and the iPad with the pertinent details.
    If I connect while in the premises (same LAN), connection is instantaneous and flawless.
    If I connect while away, no matter which external network, the first attempt to connect ALWAYS fails with a NOT FOUND error. Yet if I try again immediately after, it ALWAYS connects with no further issues.

  • Since upgrading iMac to osx lion I have been experiencing problems in mail, it spontaneously stops receiving and tells me it can't find the pop server and also the biggest problem is that when I send with an attachment the recipient doesn't receive it.

    Since upgrading iMac to osx lion I have been experiencing problems in mail, it spontaneously stops receiving and tells me it can't find the pop server and also the biggest problem is that when I send with an attachment the recipient doesn't receive it.
    I have to restart mail most times before it starts recieving or recognizes the pop server.
    As I said a lot of recipients do not recieve my mails when there is an attachment or when I reply to their email.

  • Can't connect to the exchange server

    I'm having trouble geting Mail to work with the exchange server here at work. any ideas?

    I tried Mick's suggestions but they don't help. One problem seems to be that my boxname on the exchange server unfortunately has a space in it ("firstname lastname", windows style). Upon initial setup the configurator won't allow this, but even if I set up a dummy username (without spaces) and then add the space into the account information afterward, I still see "could not connect to this exchange server" when I click on "Check Again" in the Mail Connection Doctor.
    The outgoing SMTP server is configured as servername.companyname.local, port 25, no SSL, and no authentication, and outgoing mail works fine... so it's not a routing or DNS lookup issue on the local side.
    The other annoying thing is that the instructions at
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mail/2.0/en/ml1098.html
    say that the "Assist me..." button should bring up something called Network Diagnostics. But that button is always greyed out, and spotlight doesn't turn up any apps by that name anywhere on the system.
    Can anyone suggest a way of troubleshooting just where things are breaking down? I looked at the most obvious console logs and didn't see anything.
    Thanks in advance!

  • Safari can't find the facebook server

    I apologise if this topic has already been dealt with but I cannot find an answer on this discussion board or the rest of the web.
    All I get is "safari can't find the facebook server"
    Every other website under the sun works on Safari except facebook. I've reset the cache and done everything else that has been suggested but nothing works. Why just facebook? Any help would be appreciated. Cheers

    Similar problem, but the delay seems to be cause by any attempt to reach Facebook, even Facebook pages on another web page you are visiting, creates a pop-up redirect to WSearch.net, and then multiple pop-up windows for LivingSocial.com, asking you to choose your locale from a drop down list. This LivingSocial seems to be similar to Groupon.com, offering local deals.
    The same result occurs in Firefox in regards to Facebook, with the redirect to WSearch.net. If you have your settings blocking pop-ups, in either Safari or Firefox, the pop-ups do not occur, but it just seems like the page isn't loading because the redirect doesn't happen.
    There are many listings in Google Search related to this problem going back to 2008, but no one seems to have a solution. There are occasional references to a Trojan virus that does this, as well as some routers that create the redirect, in hotel wi-fi situations. I'm experiencing this problem while visiting my father at a hospital, using the hospital wi-fi, and did see it happen once at the hotel I'm staying at.

  • Sorry I can not find Exchange 2010 forum does it still exist? How do you stop mails automaticaly being received by outlook on the exchange server

    Hi
    is it possible to stop the exchange server 2010 from automatically populating the outlook clients inbox with new emails forcing the users to press send and receive every time they want to collect emails?
    I thought it was but I can no longer find any information on this.
    kind regards

    Hello，
    Based on my known, I'm afraid that there is no way to realize it on exchange server.
    Could you tell me why you do this?
    If you want to control the size of mailboxes, you can configure mailbox storage quotas for a mailbox.
    If you want to delete specific message or messages from the specific sender or domain, you can create transport rule to do it. Or you can set outlook rule to do it.
