Edit shared Exchange calendars

Staff members want to edit shared calendars (Exchange 2010) using their iPads. All the apps I've found only support viewing shared calendars, no ability to edit/update etc. OWA on safari forces lite version which prevents seeing shared calendars. I tried using other browsers that can mimic being another browser (Terra mimicing FireFox v12, etc) but it flakes out when trying to load the calendars.
Has anyone found an app that will give us the functionality we want, or a browser that is able to successfully mimic well enough to get to calendar functionality in OWA?

OK, I got it. The shared calendar was setup in Outlook as such:
Default - Reviewer
When set like this everything works fine on my Outlook to view this calendar, but in iCal it shows no access. When the user added my specific user with permissions as reviewer and I reopened the Delegation tab in iCal, it showed that I now have access!
So to recap, at this point, what worked for me is the following:
On the calendar you want to SHARE:
Outlook 2007 -> Calendar, right-click properties, choose Permissions tab, and add the iCal user's Active Directory account with specific permissions (reviewer for example).
On iCal:
Menu Bar -> iCal Preferences -> Accounts icon, click on Delegation tab, under Accounts I can access, + button to add, and enter the user. You should now be able to check the box to left of the user name to display this calendar in iCal.
As stated this seems to ONLY work on Exchange 2007.
Good luck everyone!

ICal Shared Exchange Calendar Stopped Working

I have been successfully accessing the Johns Hopkins Exchange servers for mail, address book, and calendar services on my Mac for months. In iCal I had also been accessing a shared Exchange calendar for many months. About 1-2 months ago, I lost access to this shared calendar in iCal only. Since I can still access it from Outlook on a PC, it seems something must have changed on my Mac. I still have access to my own exchange calendar in iCal, but when I go to re-setup the shared calendar in the account set up window, it shows that the shard calendar exists in the list of available calendars, but the indicator spins and spins without ever revealing my delegate privileges. Did Apple change something that is blocking access to my delegate privileges in iCal?
Thanks for any help,
Bill Convey

I would suggest to go into the options for that exchange server on your Pre and reset the calendar preference (that is: change it to not sync the calendar, save those settings, then switch it to 'on' again).
After doing this, perform the following action:
-Open your Contacts App
-Select Preferences & Accounts from the dropdown menu
-Scroll to the bottom of that page and select "Sync Now".
This should resync all data on all Accounts on your phone.
Please note: It may take up to 10 minutes to sync all data from all Accounts. If you do not see all synced information after 10 minutes, perform a soft reset (shutdown your phone and restart it).

Shared Exchange Calendar in iPad

Hello, I am dealing this issue pretty long time but with no result. I was able to add shared calendars of my colleagues in Macbook Calendar. But now I need to add it also to iPad (or iPhone). Like it or not but for example our CEO uses just iPad, no PC.
So I need to figure our how to open shared exchange calendar in iPad.
Thank you for your tips.

I'm not sure if it's possible to open the full OWA from an iPad...perhaps somebody else knows, but in the version which shows on my iPad, that functionality is not allowed.
There is no way to add a shared calendar/mailbox to an iDevice.

Scripting Entourage shared exchange calendar

How do I go about adding events to a shared exchange calendar?
I'm able to add events via applescript when I am using the account to which the calendar belongs but when trying to script it via another user account which has access privaledges is a problem. I can't seem to get the calendar id of the shared calendar so I can refer to it.
With an exchange calendar which is not being shared I just refer to it by calendar id which I can obtain by using
set theCals to every calendar of Exchange account "account name"
But how do I refer to a shared calendar which shows up as a calendar beneath a second Exchange Account icon inside of my Entourage exchange account underneath the calendar tab?
Thanks.
Pedro

Let me ask it another way--how do you get the calendar id of a selected event?
The script below returns the event id of an event on the shared exchange account calendar for which I am trying to find the calendar id.
tell application "Microsoft Entourage"
try
(*get the currently selected event(s)
(in calendar or custom view) *)
set theEvents to (get selection)
if theEvents = {} or class of (item 1 of theEvents) is not event then error number -128
on error
(*if there are no events selected, or the first item selected
is not a calendar event, warn the user and then quit*)
beep 2
display dialog "First select an event in the calendar or" & "a custom view. Then try again" buttons {"Cancel"} default button 1 with icon 0
end try
return calendar ID
end tell
Thanks.

How can i add a shared exchange calendar to my iphone

Hello,
We are on an Exchange 2010 email server, use Outlook 2010 clients and corporate policy does not allow for use of the iCloud environment due to the nature of our business. We would like to be able to add shared calendars to our iPhones but so far have been unsuccessful. We are a windows shop and currently only have one Mac in the organization; and that Mac isn't on the domain. Can this bee done, if so can someone please point me in the right direction.. Any help or advice is greatly appreciated even if it's just to say that it can't be done.
Thanks again,
J

Thanks Templeton, This led me to http://contact-outlook.itrezzo.com/2014/04/iphone-exchange-server-contacts.html which is what we actually ended up doing.. Thank you very much..

Exchange calendar sync issues among iOS devices and Mavericks

When I add an event to a shared Exchange calendar on my Mac in iCal, and mark it as All-Day, that designation does not appear with the event on my iOS devices. Instead, it's given a 24-hour duration from 12 to 12, so to speak. Here's the confusing part: If I edit the event on my iPhone to correct it as All-Day, it does not sync that All-Day designation to my iPad. Additionally, if I then make the same correction on the iPad, toggles it on the phone and removes All-Day. Removal of All-Day designation on a device does remove it on the Mac calendar, which I then have to change back. So I chase it around in a circle and end up with the correct duration on only one iOS device. The difference in All-Day and 24 hours duration does matter graphically as many of these events run for several weeks or months. All-Day keeps them confined to the upper section of the calendar graph rather than muddying up the lowerm hourly appointments.
Any ideas on how to rectify the problem?
I'm running Mavericks, iOS 7.0.3 and using MS Exchange 2010.

There are several other posters on the Forums that are having issues with Exchange sync'ing with Mavericks. It could be that your all-day verses mutli-hour issue may be among them.
Most of the problems that people are seeing, including myself, are more to do with Mail and Calendar simply not synchronizing.
My Mail.app INBOX for my Exchange server is now several hours behind my iOS and Windows Outlook instances. Calendar appointments are simply not being pushed to the server (though they seem to be retrieved OK).
So, sorry for now help on this one directly, but you are not alone.

How can I add a SHARED Outlook Calendar to my iPhone?

I have Outlook for work. I have my personal calendar on there, along with my work calendar which is shared with my boss. When I sync my IPhone to Exchange, my personal calendar from Outlook syncs to my phone. The Shared calendar does not appear, however.
I don't want to use an app (I have OWA and hate it) and I want the shared cal to appear on my calendar in my phone. I also need to do so without adding my boss's email account to my phone. Help!

Depending on the version of Exchange in your environment you need to verify with your Exchange Admin that iCal publishing is enabled (Exchange 2010 or 2013) then you could send an email with a link to the shared calendar then subscribe to
it. Below is a link on how send the link once it's enabled and one for your Exchange Admin on how to enable iCal.

On either device in Calendars> edit >shared with> add person when I enter an email address and press add nothing happens - just goes back to edit screen and what I have entered has gone. No error message or any clue about why I cant share my calendar. Please help.

UDPATE:
Spoke with Express lane, and issue was escalated. Kudos to the support guys that handled this one (Brian and Yi). Went through everything in detail and took all the crash dumps off the iphones and ipads to send to engineering.
After backing up the contacts, the recommendation was to delete all contacts in iCloud. Doing that caused my iCloud to crash (in the browser), so more crash dumps were sent to apple.
Eventually got all contacts deleted, then did a resync. Looks like IOS devices are coming back to life and syncing again.
Also, Outlook iCloud connector has just been updated to ver 1.0.1 so i installed that on their recommendation.
BOTTOM LINE workaround:
1. Backup contacts
2. Delete contacts in iCloud
3. Delete accounts on IOS devices
4. Recreate accounts on IOS devices.
Hoping a real root cause can be found and real fix implemented. This has caused me to doubt the stability of iCloud, so i will procees with caution.

How can I allow multiple users to edit a single shared iCal calendar?

Is it possible to allow multiple users to edit a single shared iCal calendar? I also want to provide different permissions to those users. Is this possible through .MAC? Is it possible on Mac OSX Server?

I would like 2 agenda synced through .Mac but it does not work.
I have 2 computers and 2 laptops. A very simple agenda with 3 calenders. Myself my partner and the office calender. I want to publish my calender and that of my partner. The office calender I would like to sync so that we can change the office calender at any location.
I set up sync only for iCall and have a .Mac account. When I change anything on any of the calenders in iCall nothing happens on any of my other locations. Even though the locations are registered as synced. I can see the sync wheel turning but at the end of it the calenders are not synced.
At this moment I fully understand the publish and unpublished calenders but have no clue what so ever what syncing does for iCall. There seems to be no functionality to it. It does not transport any calender info over .Mac. There is no visable check to see what is happening and the process of syncing is not transperent. Lots of my friends go to me for advise on Apple issues but as far as sync wether iCall or Addressbook I always tell them sync does not work and I have no clue why others have it working. I haven't met any people here in Holland either that got in working. I suppose with iCall you have to get third party software to share calenders editable calenders. Really hopeless situation, wish Apple would just have a manual stating what sync can do and what it can not. Hours wasted on this issue trying to get it to work.
Hope anyone here can help out.

IPhone calendar appointments set to local calendar, and need to switch to exchange calendar. Have to edit each appointment one at a time and change to exchange calendar. Is there any method to edit all appoints in my calendar at once?

iPhone calendar appointments set to local calendar, and need

Not sure this will work but if you go into the Keyboard preferences, then click the Keyboad Shortcuts tab, and then the '+', you can add your own shortcuts for any application. I am not sure what happens if you try to override an existing shortcut since I haven't tried using this.
Edit/Update:
Probably against my better judgement I'll also throw this out there - there's an Unsanity haxie called Menumaster which might also allow you to do what you want. Against my better judgement because personally I stay clear of haxies. It's (all haxies) probably almost certain to break in Lion. They always do with each major release.

Can't get shared Gmail calendars to work (Exchange)

Long time Android user bought an iPhone 5 last night. Having serious trouble getting shared Google calendars to display.
I have my Google account set up as Exchange. That seemed to go through smoothly and my main Google calendar shows up just fine. I then went to https://www.google.com/calendar/iphoneselect and all of my calendars appear. I put checkboxes in the ones I wanted to sync to my iPhone, but they did not show up in my iPhone Calendar app. Waited and waited, never showed up.
I even deleted my Exchange account completely and re-added it. Still, only the primary calendar shows up in Exchange.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I've been to that iphoneselect website from both my iPhone using the Safari browser, and from my computer using Chrome browser, and both browsers show the calendars I want to sync as having check marks in the boxes. Those calendars simply do not sync. Is there possibly some issue with Google not being aware that I have an iPhone since I had an Android for so long?
If I go to m.google.com/sync from my iPhone browser, it does not show up with a device select page. It just shows up with a generic Google sync page, where I can click a "Calendar" icon, then choose "Sync with a mobile device," then choose "Apple device" and it takes me to a settings page that ultimately leads me to the same check box webpage ashttps://www.google.com/calendar/iphoneselect. Which, as I said, already shows check marks in the calendars that I want.
I read this entire thread: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4310898?start=45&tstart=0. It seems to suggest that Google or Apple is making it so you cannot get shared calendars using Exchange any more, and that you have to do it by setting up a new account for calendars as just a regular "Gmail" account (instead of Exchange).
Anybody know how to fix this? Is it not possible to view multiple calendars using Exchange anymore??

I was able to get my shared calendars to show up in my iPhone Calendar list only after visiting https://m.google.com/sync/settings/iconfig/ in the iPhone Safari browser. That page lets me manage the Google Sync devices (e.g. iPhone, iPad), each has its own Settings page where I must click the checkbox to sync each shared calendar. Once I saved those device-specific settings, I was able to see the extra calendars on the iPhone.

Allowing others to edit 'shared' calendars

Does anyone know how to allow another person to edit/update a "shared" calendar? Is this something that needs to be selected when sharing the calendar (during subscribe?)?

Exchange 2010 Sharing a calendar using OWA prompts for Credentials

Hi,
We have a mixed Exchange 2003/Exchange 2010 environment while we migrate our mailboxes over to Exchange 2010.
We use code that is used to connect to meeting room calendars still on Exchange 2003and then display the information on big tv screen at the entrance to the building.
An example of the code is:
R1calURL = "http://www.msexchange.org/articles-tutorials/exchange-server-2010/management-administration/managing-internet-calendar-sharing-exchange-server-2010-service-pack-1-part1.html to
try and get it working.
The code then gets various other pieces of information from the calendar which is used to display the correct information.
I have a couple of questions:
1) Is this method still valid or should we be using a different way of acheiving this (EWS or Internet Calendar Sharing?)
2) We use forms based authentication for OWA. I have had a look at Internet Calendar Sharing but when I enter the URL for the shared mailbox I am always being asked to enter credentials. I have configured the mailbox I am connecting to so default
has reviewer and anonymous has reviewer permissions. I have also configured the OWA external URL the same as the Internal URL and created a new anonymous sharing policy in the EMC and applied this to the shared mailbox. I used the following link
http://www.msexchange.org/articles-tutorials/exchange-server-2010/management-administration/managing-internet-calendar-sharing-exchange-server-2010-service-pack-1-part1.html to try and get it working.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Matt

Hi Matt,
If the shared calendar is opened from OWA directly from a URL, please configure the Outlook Web App virtual directory to use Integrated Windows authentication. Integrated Windows authentication lets users who've already logged on by using
their Active Directory account use Outlook Web App without having to enter their credentials again. For more information about it, please refer to:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb232199(v=exchg.141).aspx
To configure it, please do the following steps:
1. Open EMC, expand Microsoft Exchange On-Premises (<ServerName>).
2. Expand Server Configuration, and click on
Client Access.
3. Select the desired Client Access server on the right panel, and double click on
owa (Default Web Site) on the Outlook Web App tab.
4. In Authentication tab, select Use one or more standard authentication methods and check Integrated Windows authentication.
5. Click Apply.
Please note the warning to restart IIS service and change the corresponding configuration for ECP virtual directory in the same web site.

Winnie Liang

Exchange Calendar Events Disappearing from iPhone after Editing

iPhone 6 running iOS8.
Exchange calendar events are disappearing from iPhone right after I edit them from my phone. But they are still visible on my MacBook in Outlook.
It used to happen very rarely but lately it has been happening very frequently. Haven't been able to find a pattern and re-create it.
Tried searching online for this issue. Found quite a few threads about calendar sync issues, including the GMT bug but haven't been able to find this exact issue that I have been facing.
Any suggestions will be highly appreciated.

I have the same problem and it has nothing to do with filing or moving emails, for instance just before I logged in here to find a solution for the problem, I had just received and email on my iPad. I was reading it then clicked on a link. When I finished reading the link In Safari and went back to the email, it was gone. I have replied to an email then come back to it and it was gone. This had nothing to do with viewing the email on a ore device. This is a real problem I have asked about before and no one seems to know the answer.

Sync other users shared exchange 2007 calendar

I have user A in my exchange 2007 environment who has thier Iphone conected and everything with regards to their own account (email, calendar, etc...) sync's without issue, however user B shared a calendar with user A and they cannot see it on their iphone. I tried using CalDev with user B's credentials but it did not work. Is this possible?

Update to question in terms of testing:
- Not iPad specific
- Windows 2003 clients affected
- Not user profile related, were able to repeat the issue for another pair of users using a common scenario on Office 2003
a. Invitation sent and accepted in Outlook – OK
b. Invitation sent and accepted by delegate in Outlook – OK
c. Invitation sent and accepted on the iPad – Not OK, transposes Organiser with iPad Owner in Outlook (OK on the iPad though!)
- Next test is with Office 2007 on the users' client PC.
