Can a shared calendar be Read-Write on both ends?

I share a calendar with my assistant through MobileMe ... is there a way to have her edit the calendar as well? Similar to file sharing?

Yes !
There is a nice commercial desktop app. called busysync. Try it it's working very smooth.

Can a shared calendar be combined on main calendar?

I am making a departmental calendar for events, meetings, etc. I am the owner of the calendar and have shared it with others in the department. I have the option to check the box and combine the shared calendar with my main calendar, but the recipients of the shared calendar do not have this option. Can the recipients also have the option to check the button to combine the calendars like I do? No one wants to flip through multiple calendars. I have reviewed the settings and cannot figure out where I went wrong. Any suggestions?

Airport express: iMac read/write to pc, pc can see iMac but not read/write

airport express: my iMac can read/write files to my Windows 8 pc, not reverse. My PC can connect to my iMac (it shows on the PC as a network device) but cannot see any files or folders. Airport docs suggest that my Documents folder should be visible. Tried enabling access everywhere I can think on iMac such as SMB. Any help?

Hi everyone
I've managed to work out how to share my desktop and the external drive attached to it via wireless so my Macbook Pro can see, open, and edit and save photo files via Photoshop Elements.
I can also then view and edit them through the Windows PC - though they say some properties are missing this I can live with.
Therefore no re-formatting needed, and no downloads either.
Many thanks

I have a MacBook Air with Snow Leopard. I can read/write in both directions with 16 GB Fat32 drives but cannot with a 250GB NTFS drive.

I have a MacBook Air. I also have a 250GB NTFS external drive which the Mac sees. i can copy and paste from the external drive to the Mac but not from the Mac to the external drive. However, I can go in both directions with a Fat32 16 GB flashdrive. Can anyone explain this to me?

I've always recommented ext3 filesystem if you wanna use an external drive for both Windows and Mac OS as both can read and write to that filesystem.
But obviously you'd have to format the drive (you can use Mac disk utility)

Can built-in device to read/write SDHC cards 4-8-16 GB?

I have Lenovo 3000 N200 laptop which has a multy card reader, but I wonder if it is capable of reading and writing those latest SDHC cards?
I am planning to buy a such card for a HD-camcorder.

If you are using a DSLR camera, like for example a Canon 60D, there may be an option to use a "Low-Level Formatting" on the card. This should make it writable when putting it into the computer.
To test this (and confirm it works) I did the following:
Hardware Used:
Canon 60D camera body
Sandisk 32GB SDHC Extreme Card
Macbook Pro 15" (mid 2010 model) with built-in SD card slot.
Steps:
Place SDHC card into camera (SD card may work as well). Navigate through menu until you arrive at settings that allow the camera to format the card. There may be an option to format it "low-level", which you would then select.
-Note that all files on card will be erased permanently.-
After the camera formats, eject the card from the camera, and place inside the built-in SD slot on the Macbook.
The card should automatically mount, containing both read and write priviledges.
Hope that helps.

External Hard drive suddenly will only read! How can I make it read/write again?

Hi folks,
I'm working with a Seagate FreeAgent GoFlex 320gb External Hard Drive on the imacs here at my university. I have it formatted to ExFAT so that I could use it with my pc as well but I've never had to so far so it's only ever been used on the uni imacs.
It's been fine for working on media projects until suddenly when i came back to uni after the Christmas break I went to continue working on a film project and realised the external hard drive now said read only??
One thing I did was to put all of my work from last semester (which is everything that was on the hard drive into a single folder) could that have caused the problem?
And does anyone know how i can reset my permissions to read/write without causing damage or risk to the files on the hard-drive as I can't clear the disk (i have no where else to store the 185gb of video footage).
I'd really appreciate it if anyone could tell me how i can fix it? I know how to do all of this on my pc but i've no idea with the mac as i only use it for my media projects here in the university.
Thanks!
DrF ;-)

Out of curiosity , will this method also work for an external drive formatted to NTFS.. I have a lot of data that I have nowhere to Float while re-formatting the drive , so If this method would allow me to keep the data and still fix the problem that would be great !! At the moment the drive is formatted to NTFS and permissions say Read/Write , but I can only Read.. Very Frustrating as my mac drive is running low on space and performance is being affected.. Any help appreicated !!

HT1549 How do I read write to an external drive? I am under admin account and cannot read write to any folder on the external drive.

I have a Mac Mini with Mavericks installed, as well as a PC running Windows 7. I want to be able to read write from both computers to an external drive on the Mac. I created 2 folders on the drive and named them Movies, and TV Shows. The content of those folders are the respective files. I set up both folders to be shared on the Mac under system preferences, and then mapped the drives on the PC. I also created a user account with admin privileges on the mac that matched my PC. I then copied a Music folder to the root drive instead of using external, and set up sharing as well. File Sharing is selected for all three folders, however the music folder is the only one which allows me to change the permissions to allow read write to everyone, or to create individual user accounts to connect with read write permissions. The options to add users or change permissions are simply grayed out for the two folders on the external drive, so not only can I not write from my PC, but I can’t even do it on the Mac with the administrative user logged in. The folder on the root drive is fine but I cannot make any changes to the external drive at all. Get info for any folder on drive shows read only. SMB and AFP are selected for all folders under options. I can access all three folders from PC, but can only add files to the Music folder. I cannot do anything from either computer to the folders on the external drive.

Try Applications/Utilities/Disk Utility - select the drive and run Repair Disk.

Shared Calendars from Outlook?

I use Outlook and have access to a few shared calendars. My own and one of the ones I have access to are available to sync to the iPhone, but another one is not. Any ideas on what differentiating factors would allow some to be recognized and not others?

Can someone break thsi down for me please. We are using small business server 2011 and everyone has a windows pc but me, I have a MBP. in outlook I can opend shared calendars no problem but when I try to us the "delegate" tab in ical's preferences nothing comes up. I cant neither share y calendar or open ones that have been shared with me. The only way aound this at this point is that I have to physically add their accounts on my MBP but I don't want to do this as this can be invading privacy since I can also get their mails. I know I can untick email when i add their accounts but the fact that I still ahve the option to tick it annoys me as I wouldnt want others doing this with my account. Can someone point me in the right direction here.
P.S. One of my colleagues bought a MBP yesterday and his was as simple as plug and play. He can share his calendar and open shared ones with ical but I still cant he his. We are both running lion. I'm starting to think this is more of a server issue with permissions or something, mind you I have basic computer knowledge.

Help with Read/Write File

hi I was wondering if someone can help me do some read/write file with java. here is what I want to do:
Read a file and search the whole file for a word such as "throw" and print out the rest of that line to a new file. in the case of "throw", i want to link all thrown exceptions to the file that contained them.
can someone help me out and let me know what way I can approach in this?
any help would be greatly appreciated.
thanks!

Rough and dirty, here's a class that will read a file and return a resultset:
import java.io.*;
import java.nio.*;
import java.nio.channels.FileChannel;
import java.util.*;
import java.text.DateFormat;
public class Utils{
     File fileName;
     FileOutputStream outputFile;
     boolean closeChannel;
     //Constructor
     public Utils(String directory, String filename){
          String strFileDir = directory;
          String strFileName = filename;
          File fileDir = new File(strFileDir);
          fileName = new File(fileDir, strFileName);
          // If directory does not exhist, create it.
          if(!fileDir.isDirectory()){
               if(fileDir.mkdirs()){
                    System.out.println(fileDir + " created.");
               else{
                    System.out.println(fileDir + " could not be created.");
public ArrayList readText() throws IOException{
          // Read content of file into a collection
          ArrayList arrayList = new ArrayList();
          try{
               BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(fileName));
               String line;
               while((line = in.readLine()) != null){
                    arrayList.add(line);
               in.close();
          catch (IOException ex){
               throw ex;
          return arrayList;
     }And here's how you use the class:
// Create a new Disk Utilities object. This can be used for all subsequent read/writes to this file.
          Utils utilTest = new Utils("e:/testing", "Testing.txt");
// Create a collection to hold the data from the file.
          ArrayList arrayList = new ArrayList();
          try{arrayList = utilTest.readText();}catch(IOException ex){ex.printStackTrace(System.err);}

Microchip 24LC16 EEPROM Read/Write

hi... i am working on a project in which i have to write & Read EEPROM "Microchip 24LC16" at different locations. I am using NI 8451 card for read/write. I connect SDA, SCL & GND of EEPROM & NI-Card to each other. I tried two different i2c example code.
1. General I2C Read/Write vi..
2. Microchip 24lc512 Read/write script .vi.
i am able to perform read & write through both example but facing different problem with each code.
Problem in first code
1. when i write 5 bytes or more than 3 bytes at 03CD location it writes & read it but as i Switch OFF the EEPROM & then Switch ON & try to read at location 03CD i find only 3 bytes(from 03CD to 03CF) & other bytes become zero.
2. I try to write 16 bytes on different location i.e. 03D0, 03E0, 03F0. but i lost all the data when i read EEPROM after doing switch OFF & ON.
Problem in second code
1. when i write some bytes at a particular location ( say 03CD) & then perform read at any other location, i get same data which i wrote at 03CD.
2. after writing at location 03CD, when i try to write at any other location it overwrite the last written bytes.
Is there any specific code available for this particular EEPROM ? if yes then please send me the code.
Please give me any solution, i have tried all my efforts .

Hi Francis,
From the sounds of things, you're looking at the Amtel AT25080A Read example VI found under the SPI Advanced folder in the Example Finder. Is that correct? If so, your description of the example's execution sounds correct. The first byte indicates what sort of operation you'd like to perform, the next two indicate the starting address for this operation you would like to access and the remaining bytes are the number of bytes you would like to read beginning at that starting address (in this sense the address is auto-incremented based on the number of bytes you choose to read).
In your case, it sounds like you want to do a very similar operation, only you will have one bit to determine the operation, 7 more bits to specify the address and the following bits to read the value at that address. If you want to read the byte at that address and the next two beyond that, you can simply create an array of three bytes and build an array with this and your operation/address byte. If you want to read bytes at disjointed addresses you will need to do multiple 845x SPI write read blocks and input the new address at that time (either in a sequential format or within a loop).
In general, if you are looking for more information concerning the operation of different blocks, it is helpful to have Context Help on (Help>>Context Help) and when you hover your mouse over wires or blocks the Context Help window will give you additional information. Additionally, the NI-845x Software User Manual found under Start>>Programs>>National Instruments>>NI-845x could be helpful. Hope this helps!

How can I use my external hard drive on both pc and mac, but also being able to use it to back up my mac data?

I want to be able to transfer some of my files from my laptop to my macbook, but not all of them. I have a NTFS external hard drive and I have heard about reformatting it so that it can read/write across both systems, but can I still use this hard drive to back up the data on my macbook? If I can, how should I go about reformatting the hard drive?

FORMAT TYPES
FAT32 (File Allocation Table)
Read/Write FAT32 from both native Windows and native Mac OS X.
Maximum file size: 4GB.
Maximum volume size: 2TB
You can use this format if you share the drive between Mac OS X and Windows computers and have no files larger than 4GB.
NTFS (Windows NT File System)
Read/Write NTFS from native Windows.
Read only NTFS from native Mac OS X
To Read/Write/Format NTFS from Mac OS X, here are some alternatives:
For Mac OS X 10.4 or later (32 or 64-bit), install Paragon (approx $20) (Best Choice for Lion)
Native NTFS support can be enabled in Snow Leopard and Lion, but is not advisable, due to instability.
AirPort Extreme (802.11n) and Time Capsule do not support NTFS
Maximum file size: 16 TB
Maximum volume size: 256TB
You can use this format if you routinely share a drive with multiple Windows systems.
HFS+ ((((MAC FORMAT)))) (Hierarchical File System, a.k.a. Mac OS Extended (Journaled) Don't use case-sensitive)
Read/Write HFS+ from native Mac OS X
Required for Time Machine or Carbon Copy Cloner or SuperDuper! backups of Mac internal hard drive.
To Read HFS+ (but not Write) from Windows, Install HFSExplorer
Maximum file size: 8EiB
Maximum volume size: 8EiB
You can use this format if you only use the drive with Mac OS X, or use it for backups of your Mac OS X internal drive, or if you only share it with one Windows PC (with MacDrive installed on the PC)
EXFAT (FAT64)
Supported in Mac OS X only in 10.6.5 or later.
Not all Windows versions support exFAT.
exFAT (Extended File Allocation Table)
AirPort Extreme (802.11n) and Time Capsule do not support exFAT
Maximum file size: 16 EiB
Maximum volume size: 64 ZiB
You can use this format if it is supported by all computers with which you intend to share the drive. See "disadvantages" for details.

Can two iCal users edit the same published/shared calendar

Can two iCal users (obviously different mobileMe accounts) edit the same published/shared calendar? I want to have a calendar running which we can both edit remotely but for it to be synced so we both know what each other is doing. Maybe I can share it on my iDisk somehow? I have searched but could not find an answer so I am sorry if this has been covered already !

There is now way to do this using standard MobileMe and iCal. What you could is both share your calendars so that both of you can read each other's calendar.
If you want both to have read-write access to a calendar you will need to use third party software or set up a Google calendar where both of you have read-write access to the calendar.

Can not add a New appointment to a shared calendar in Outlook 2010, can only add a New Meeting.

Hi
I can not add a new appointment to a shared calendar in Outlook 2010. I can see the calendar and appointments in it (all appointments are marked as busy, the detail can not be seen. I want it to do this) and I can and a New meeting to the shared calendar
but I can not add just an appointment.
I do not want e-mail being sent to the owner of the shared calendar everytime I add something.
When I view the appointment that im creating in the shared calendar the New appointment button is greyed out but the New meeting button is available.
The permision on the shared calendar for the user is:
Custom
Read = none
Write = create items, create subfolders, edit own
delete = Own
Other = folder visable
Thanks
contributor permission in outlook 2010 calendar does not work, I have given this as permision but issue is the same. We currently connect to an exchange server 2003;

Hi Cmrl,
Does it happen when you create an appointment via OWA?
Does it happen when you create an appointment via Outlook 2003?
Do you have any mobile device?
How many users encountered the issue, all users or some user?
At first, I suggest you recreate outlook profile.
At second,
use PFDAVAdmin
to correct any problems found.

Read Write Calender Sharing with at least 1 other use

I've read several entries on the concept of publishing a calendar such that two people can both read and write to it. My situation is the same as numerous others, either a co-worker or a spouse trying to share a calendar where either party can edit events and have those edits reflected into the shared calendars on the others computers
What is the deal with this? Google calendars, Yahoo, etc all have this functionality. My wife and I are both mobile me users (unique user ID's in a family pack). We both use Apples, etc.
Giving the duplicity of entries, I think it would be in Apple's interest to publish a response on this topic. If the functionality is supported, then there should be a help file or application note on the topic. Same is true if a work around exists.
Anyone with any formula for how two people can share a common calendar that each other can edit and have those edits published to both parties calenders in iCal?
Thanks
MikeK

Mike,
Giving the duplicity of entries, I think it would be in Apple's interest to publish a response on this topic. If the functionality is supported, then there should be a help file or application note on the topic. Same is true if a work around exists.
Since Apple has not provided that native capability, and this is a user-to-user forum, you may want to try this third party solution: BusySync - Sync iCal and Google Calendar - from BusyMac
