Denied meeting request on ical displayed on iphone

Hello,
I have a problem with the sync of my ical calendar with my iphone via icloud. When I deny a meeting request in ical on my mac it gets display with a grey icon and won't show up when i set "do not show denied events" in menu. On my iphone the request is shown with a blue icon as I would have accepted the meeting request. The detailed infos are correct, it shows myself as denied. Also on icloud.com there is the possibility to not show denied events, but this doesn't work, it still shows the denied meeting...anyone else has this problem?
A negative side effect is also that I shared my calendar and my wife also gets these denied meeting request shown up on her device.
Oh, and one more thing...when i delete a denied request, the requestor gets a second mail with my denial and there seems no way to turn that off..hm?

I've been using a service that is a handy way to work with meeting for the Mac and particularly the IPhone. The service is SMEScheduler - check it out at www.thesmespace.com/SMEScheduler.
It works on the Iphone and the Mac and allows me to schedule meeting and for users to vote on times with the most appropriate time being used as the meeting time and the emails with the Ical invitiations are automated.

I can't import .ics meeting requests to iCal (currently using iCloud)

I can't import .ics meeting requests to iCal (currently using iCloud). Every time I drop it in or double click or import it it just doesn't show up. Is there a way round this or a setting I've not set up correctly?

Greetings Gillian,
Try dragging one of these invites out of Mail to the desktop. It should show up with a ".ics" extension as you indicate in your post. Double-click this file and see if iCal launches and offers you the invite in the lower left corner (or anywhere else for that matter).
If nothing happens when you double-click the file from the desktop try the following:
__Create a new user account on the Mac: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.6/en/8235.html
__Put the .ics file you dragged to the desktop into Macintosh HD > Users > Shared
__Log out of the current user and login as the new user you created
__Go to Macintosh HD > Users > Shared in the new user and drag the .ics file to the desktop
__Double-click the file on the desktop and see if iCal opens and offers to add the invite
Let us know the results.

HT2513 How can I forward a meeting request in iCal from my iPad or iPhone?

I can do this in iCal on my iMac but not my iPhone or iPad. This is critical since I travel often. Is there an app or upgrade that takes care of this problem? I use MS exchange on my pc at work and this is what it is synching with. Any help appreciated.

There is an app that allows this - called Forward My Meeting. It allows you to forward any meeting in your calendar from the iPhone or iPad.
I may receive some form of compensation, financial or otherwise, from my recommendation or link.

Deny meeting request before sending the request if for example the time frame is to far in the future or if the atendee has no permission for the ressource.

Hi @ all,
I've got a question regarding a migration scenario from Exchange 2003 to Exchange 2010 / 2013.
In 2003 a pop up appears in general before sending the request if a meeting request is for example too far in the future or if the atendee has no permission for the ressource.
In a few tests we did the request is sent to all the participants and afterwards the room sends the cancellation email. This is very annyoing because in 2003 the request was not sent thereby giving one the possibility to change the meeting with the correct
ressource.
Is it possible to generate this pop up in 2010 / 2013 hindering you to send a meeting request until you get it right as it is in 2003?
Thanks in advance and regards from Germany
Rene

I can't delete a cancelled meeting request in calendar events on iPhone

When sending or receiving meeting requests from outlook the calander events are added perfectly.
But, when the origInator cancels the event, all the invitees receive another ICS file in the email but nothing happens when
the event is cancelled. And you can't event delete the calendar event ! So frustrating!

See if you can go to your Calendars App and select a previous event to see what Calendar the event was added to (iCloud or Yahoo). After that is determined you can go to www.iCloud.com or calendar.yahoo.com and add the event there to see if it will populate on your device. Another troubleshooting step is deleting the iCloud account from your device and also deleting the Yahoo account. Then check to see if you can add an event without it syncing to a email. If you can then it may have just been a bug and you can add both accounts back and try adding the event again. I would also recommend only using one service to sync your Contacts, Calendars, Reminders, etc. Such as either iCloud only or Yahoo only, as using multiple accounts means your data is spread around and can be hard to isolate when something goes wrong.

Unable to reply to iCal meeting request

With Tiger, when I received meeting requests through iCal, it let me accept (or deny) the invitation.
With Leopard, iCal doesn't allow me to respond to the invitation. The invitation doesn't even appear in the notification area.
Did anyone else see this? I have a clean install.

I found the answer: You must set one of the contacts in your address book as "My Card".

Having to re-accept meeting requests on iPhone after initial acceptance in Outlook

I've searched these forums for awhile and all syncing issues seem to dance around the actual issue I'm having.
Currently have an iPhone 4 running IOS 6.1.2. Business is running Microsoft Outlook 2007 and I'm connecting to Exchange through OWA.. I have no syncing issues when creating meeting requests from my phone or vice versa like others have had and I have not had any issues with meetings being deleted.
However, since updating from IOS 5 to IOS 6, I do have an issue where if I accept a meeting request inside of Outlook, it does not sync and clear out the meeting request as "accepted" on my iPhone. The only way to remove the notification is to select the request in the calendar and accept it a 2nd time and thereby sending a 2nd acceptance to the meeting organizer.
I've tried everything from changing Outlook settings in order to delete meeting invitations after acceptance to the numerous suggestions found in these forums though none specifically solve this particular issue.
Any help or direction to the thread where this might be solved would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Has anyone figured out a solution to this yet? I have an iPhone 5s and an iPad Mini. I have my Outlook 2010 calendars synced on both my iPhone and iPad Mini. If I accept a meeting request in Outlook, it still appears in the Inbox in my calendar on both my iPhone and iPad Mini. If I accept the meeting request on my iPhone, it still appears in my Inbox on my calendar on my iPad Mini.
I have my Outlook set to delete meeting requests/invites after I have accepted them, and that works in Outlook, yet they still remain on my iDevices. I have restarted both devices, and I have backed up iCloud again on both devices. I don't want to have to accept meeting requests on both my iPhone and iPad each time I receive them because that makes me look foolish. I also don't want to see the meeting requests in my Inbox on my iPad after I already accepted it on my iPad because the little number 1 in the red circle (signifying an alert on my calendar) is annoying.
Who can solve this problem so that after I accept a meeting request in Outlook, that invite does not appear anymore in my Inbox for my iPhone and iPad calendars? Please! Thank you in advance.

Meeting request statying unread even after viewing the meeting on iPhone 5 or even on laptop.

With the IOS6, even if I view any meeting request, they still show as unread, now I'm forced to send a response for the meetings. Since I have the mailbox exchange setup on phone as well as on my laptop, some time I end sending reponses more than once. Also even if I have read the meeting on my latop, then to the meeting request stays unread on the iPhone. Can some one please help me turn of the response for meeting request from my Iphone.

Ted, I'm not sure what to suggest but, one of the trouble shooting tasks I would do is try the wifi at another location. Starbucks or another coffee house the offers free wifi. You need to narrow down the problem. Is it the phone or something else? My guess is that your wifi works fine with other devices. That doesn't mean there isn't a problem with your wifi. Maybe configuring the wifi different would help. Could be a lot of issue. Get back to us on what happens at the coffee shop. If your phone exhibits the same symptoms it is probably the phone.

Alerts for recurring events in iCal no longer display on iPhone after iOS5 upgrade

That pretty much says it. I have a daily meeting in my iCal, with two alarms set, one for 15 minutes before and one for 5 minutes before. The alerts no longer display on my phone after the upgrade. (They appear on my Mac no problem.) Has anyone else seen this problem? I have notifications turned on for iCal , set to Alerts. Tried badges, tried turning notifications off then on, to no avail. It doesn't display for recurring events that were in my calendar before the upgrade and for those created after the upgrade. I don't seem to have a problem with regular i.e. non-recurring events. Doesn't seem to matte also if it is the default calendar or a different calendar either. (I tried Reminders and that worked fine, but I don't want to have type all of my recurring events in to iCal and then in to Reminders as well....)
Thanks very much

I'm having the same problem on my iMac (works on a different phone on my MBP). I restored the iphone and no dice. I'm also constantly getting a beach ball... Hope someone out there knows a workaround.

Ical misinterprets timezone in entourage meeting requests

hi
my timezone is GMT+8 and is set as such in Date & Time (10.4.7). I have Timezone support on in ICal Version 2.0.3 (1058). I also set the current timezone to asia/Singapore in ical. Meeting requests sent to me from Entourage which are also set to GMT + 8 turn up 8 hours late. The same meeting request however turns up at the correct time in outlook.
I have included an example meeting request for reference:

Unable to add invitees to iPhone meeting request

I am unable to add invitees to meeting requests when sent directly from my iPhone. When I create an appointment the option to 'add invitees' is not displayed and therefore I can't create and send meeting requests to contacts.
Note that I am using Outlook 2011 (with latest update) and am syncing calendar etc via itunes. This seems to related to default calendar set up, which seems to select the categories I use in Outlook. I would greatly appreciate some help with this.
Thanks

try doing a full reset on your iphone

Outlook multi-day (not 'all day') meeting requests showing up as 1 day off on iphone attached Activesync Exchange 2010 accounts

Exchange 2010 SP2 Server
iPhone iOS 5.01 (4/4s) using ActiveSync
Outlook 2007 clients
When multi-day (not 'all day') meeting requests or appointments are being sent to email accounts which have an iPhone attached to the Exchange account via ActiveSync, the iPhone accepts the meeting request but then moves the event one day later than what it was originally scheduled and posts it to Outlook - also 1 day later than it is supposed to be.
For example: A meeting request comes into my that is schedule for 9AM-4PM M-W but when I accept it on my iphone it gets posted to my calendar as an ALL DAY event but T-Thu
We upgraded to Exchange SP2 because some of the threads were alluding that SP2 would fix it - it didn't. I know the fix is to rip out the event to separate calendar events but this will not work for reqeusts coming from outside. And this is too tedious. If anything, it is a serious bug.
Anybody seen this before?
Thanks,
Monty.

I am experiencing a similar problem with a client of mine who is using Microsoft's Cloud-based Exchange server, Office 365. I suspect the Office 365 server is an Exchange 2010 server, similar to your environment. Check out my tests below which I think define when the day shifting happens.
I see that you applied SP2 to your Exchange 2010 environment, but have you also applied Update Rollup 1? See this article: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2563324. It would be interesting to know whether that rollup resolves your problem.
I have done some pretty extensive testing and have posted in the Office 365 Support Forum (http://community.office365.com/en-us/f/146/p/53396/192332.aspx#192332) Here is a summary of my testing.
I am having the exact same problem described by Jim Edmonds and jkwmail (http://community.office365.com/en-us/f/176/p/19921/93304.aspx#93304) with one of my clients who is not very happy about this or our inability to resolve the problem. Here is what I am experiencing:
When an appointment in Office 365 spans multiple days, the appointment gets converted to an All Day Event and moved forward one day on an iPhone ActiveSync client.
I have completed the following troubleshooting:
1 - Using my GMail Account and my work email account on MS Exchange 2007 SP 2 Server I created separate single day appointments in the morning from each account spanning two hours and invited my client who is using MS Outlook 2010 and Office 365.
    Result: The appointments show the correct date and time on my Outlook, MS Exchange 2007 SP 2 OWA, and iPhone as well as my client's Outlook, Office 365 webmail, and iPhone.
2 - Using my GMail Account and my work email account on MS Exchange 2007 SP 2 Server I created separate single day appointments in the afternoon from each account spanning two hours and invited my client who is using MS Outlook 2010 and Office 365.
    Result: The appointments show the correct date and time on my Outlook, MS Exchange 2007 SP 2 OWA, and iPhone as well as my client's Outlook, Office 365 webmail, and iPhone.
3 - Using my GMail Account and my work email account on MS Exchange 2007 SP 2 Server I created separate multi-day appointments from Friday at 5 PM to Monday at 8 AM from each account and invited my client who is using MS Outlook 2010 and Office 365.
    Result: The appointments show the correct date and time on my Outlook, MS Exchange 2007 SP 2 OWA, and iPhone as well as my client's Outlook and Office 365 webmail. However, on my client's iPhone, the time on the appointments had changed to an all day event and the start date was shifted one day forward, Saturday, and the end date was Monday unless the appointment end time was after the appointment start time in which case it created an All Day Event on Tuesday as well. For Example: If the appointment was from 8 AM Friday Morning to 8 AM Monday Morning, the iPhone would show an All Day Event on Saturday, Sunday, and Monday. If the appointment was from 8 AM Friday Morning to 8:30 AM Monday Morning, the iPhone would show an All Day Event on Saturday, Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday. If the appointment was from 8 AM Friday Morning to 7:30 AM Monday Morning, the iPhone would show an All Day Event on Saturday, Sunday, and Monday. This was also true for appointments starting on Friday at 5 PM and ending on Monday at 5 PM, starting on Friday at 5 PM and ending on Monday at 5:30 PM, and starting on Friday at 5 PM and ending on Monday at 4:30 PM as in the above AM examples.
*** Again I would like to note that on my iPhone which is connected to my company's MS Exchange 2007 SP 2 server, the multi-day appointment shows up correctly with correct start and end times and is not converted to an All Day Event. ***
It would seem this is a problem with ActiveSync on Office 365 and iOS devices. What is particularly frustrating is that this exact problem is identified in KB 2563324 (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2563324) Issue 1.6 - "An appointment is longer than 24 hours is changed to a multi-day All Day Event" which states: "To resolve this issue, install Update Rollup 1 for Exchange Server 2010 Service Pack 2 (SP2)." Since this is a cloud based service, we do not have the ability to either see what the current version of the Exchange service we are connected to is or update the service with this patch level.
4 - I performed the above three tests with my client creating the events in MS Outlook 2010 and inviting my work account on the MS Exchange 2007 SP 2 Server and got the exact same results.
5 - My client's iPhone is running iOS 4.3 and my iPhone is running iOS 5.1.0. In order to test this without going through the update process on my client's iPhone, I set up his Office 365 account on my iPhone and performed the tests in numbers 1-4 from above, viewing the results on my iPhone, and got the exact same results.
6 - Today, I tried this with a different Office 365 account, performed the multi-day test in number 3 from above and got the exact same results.
7 - Today I also upgraded my iPhone to iOS 5.1.1, performed the multi-day test in number 3 from above and got the exact same results.
8 - I have confirmed that all time zones are set correctly. I have checked the iPhone, OWA, Office 365 Webmail, etc.
I believe the problem in my case is with the Office 365 environment and not the iOS device. However, trying to get support from these large companies seems to be very difficult?
Does anyone from Apple know if this is an iOS bug or a problem with Exchange 2010/Office 365?
Thanks...

Cancelled meeting requests are not removed from ICAL.

I am currently receiveing new and updated meeting requests through "Mail" on my mac. The email body contains a .ics icon that either adds (new appointments) or updates (changes) in my MAC's Ical.
However when I receive a cancelled meeting request ... clicking on the same .ics icon take me to Ical, but doens't remove it from the calendar. Is this a known bug or somthing that I've got set up incorrectly?
Please advise if you have any information on this problem - Thanks

Ical meeting requests and outlook

Hi All,
I need your help. we have a mixed network of PC (XPP) and 30 newly deployed Mac's (OSX10.5).
iCal to iCal meeting requests are fine.
iCal to Entourage meeting requests are fine
iCal to Outlook meeting requests don't work.
As we are wanting to move Mac users away fro Entourage we are motivated to resolve this issue.
when an iCal meeting request is sent to an Outlook recipient, they receieve an email with 2 empty attachments, and a note that states that to accept this meeting, they must click on the link below; although, there is NO link for the user to click on.
Outlook and Entourage are working thru Exchange Server 2003. iCal is (presently) working off local installs. iCal Server is due for operation in a few weeks.
Any thoughts?
Thanks in advance.

There are several discussions regarding this same topic on the Apple forums and elsewhere. None of them have solved the problem. This seems to be an issue that has been around for a long time but never addressed by Apple or Microsoft. From some simple tests that I have done, it appears the the Microsoft Exchange Server is not interpreting the iCal event (.ics extension) properly. I have seen discussions saying that Apple is not formatting the event properly or is using a newer standard that MS Exchange does not support. I believe it is the later as I can make the event work properly without any software changes but I have to do some steps manually. Here is how I can make it work and why I believe something is wrong in MS Exchange:
- create event in iCal and add an Outlook user
- send the event/email (ignore this email on the PC as it does not work)
- open the just sent email and save the attached iCal event
- find the saved iCal event and add a letter to the extension such as ".icss"
- (Note: I don't know if there is a way to rename an attachment already in a message)
- attach this renamed event to a new message and send it to the Outlook user
- the Outlook user must open the message, save the attachment and rename it back to ".ics"
- double clicking / opening this renamed file now works perfectly in Outlook
Now, if I could only automate some of these steps on the Mac before I send the message would be very helpful. This is not a great solution but I use it for events that I want to sync between my home Mac and my office PC.
Because the renamed attachment (.icss) works through Exchange (by ignoring it), I am lead to believe that MS Exchange will interpret an ".ics" extension and mess up the handling of it for some reason. Microsoft is never one to follow standards very carefully or adopt them very quickly. Our company is using Exchange 2003 so maybe that is part of the problem as it is an older version.

Meeting requests from Mail to iCal - 10.4.6

Updating to 10.4.6 seems to have broken my ability to import into iCal meeting requests sent from Outlook to an Exchange account in Mail. In 10.4.5 I was able to command-[ and get the meeting.ics attachment which, when doubleclicked, would load the event into iCal.
Now, when I do the same thing, I get the .ics file as the attachment but the .ics is not recognized by iCal:
This calendar file is unreadable. No events have been added to you iCal calendar.
Opening it with BBEdit shows that .ics is not a vCard.
Does anyone have any clue of what is going on?

baltwo,
That was a typo. In (2) I meant to say "Upgrade Mac OS X" rather than "Install Mac OS X" precisely for the reasons you stated for the "upgrade earlier version" install option. The "Erase and Install" option and "Archive and Install" option are just not necessary in my case. Thanks.
Yes, thanks too for the reminder to check out the Panther-cloned FWHD volume before the update.
