Email as a reminder on my calendar

In MS Outlook, I can drag my email to the calendar and create a reminder at a specified date and time.
How can I do this in MacBookPro?

Drag the email to either Reminders or Calendar (iCal if not using Mountain Lion).
Or, are you specifically talking about Outlook for Mac? If so, I don't know, but I'd suggest giving a drag and drop a try.

  • HT4910 My iCal has frozen after I tried to paste info from an email into a reminder.  I get a "server reports an error" message with what I tried to paste in the box.  Calendar is frozen and will only close by forcing it.  Any help?

    My iCal has frozen after I tried to paste info from an email into a reminder.  I get a "server reports an error" message with what I tried to paste in the box.  Calendar is frozen and will only close by forcing it.  Any help?

    Did another window open with the pasted information?  If so, try hitting "enter/return" key and "delete" key at the same time.  That should get rid of the current action on the ical, the extra window should go bye-bye, and all should be fine with the world.

  • Q10 no longer reminding me about calendar events

    I am using a BB Q10 and the calendar app of BB Q10. Since my update to 10.3.1.1565 my BB is not reminding me anymore of any event in my calendar with audio, vibration or LED signal. It only shows me on the screen that the next event is coming up in 15 minutes but there is no other signal. This is kind of weird as I have set everything that it should remind me with all 3 means (audio signal, vibration and LED). This functions well for the emails and also for the text messages. I do not understand why it does not function for the calendar. Any help? Thanks, Ch

  • My Iphone 5s doesn't ring anymore (sms, whatsapp, phone call, reminder in the calendar, etc)

    My Iphone 5s doesn't ring anymore (sms, whatsapp, phone call, reminder in the calendar, etc) I can't find why.
    I trieds to go on Youtube and for that I have sound so it is just for the rings.
    Can somebody help me please?
    Thank you so much!
    Mary

    Have you checked your mute switch (right above the volume buttons)? If you see orange, it is muted and will affect the rings, but not the audio on YouTube.
    Just toggle the switch so you don't see the orange and check again.

  • Sending an Email with Outlook Reminder

    Hello All,
    We are using Siebel 7.8 and have a requirement wherein we need to send out System Generated Emails through Siebel at specific intervals of an SR Date Field. The email client that users use is Microsoft Outlook and the requirement is to send a System Generated Email with an Reminder that should automatically pop up using Outlook's reminder functionality.
    I have searched through multiple posts and websites but all I can come across is related to sending emails. Does anyone have any experience and know how on sending an email through Siebel Systems which automatically provides an Outlook reminder.
    Warm Regards,
    Tanmay Jain

    Hello jiyong,
    Thanks a lot for your input. The requirement that we are having is slightly different. The users use Internet Explorer directly to access Siebel interface and do not have anything installed on their systems as such.
    Based on a date field for eg Due Date, we need to trigger auto generated emails from Siebel which will pop up on the user's email client as a Reminder. We are already sending in the hyperlink to the Siebel record as a part of the email and users can directly navigate to Siebel record from the email. Its just that something that is possible through emails sent through Outlook which they want to be done through Siebel generated emails as well.
    From my investigations, what I found that the Reminder is pretty specific to Outlook program and there is no generic standard across different email clients. Thus I am having a feeling that this feature may not be directly possible through Outlook. I will keep on investigating further though. At worst I will install something like Wireshark to intercept the exact content of email that Outlook sends out and if its not too much work put that in Siebel.
    Thanks again for your response. Warm Regards,
    Tanmay Jain.

  • Is there a way to set a quarterly reminder in the calendar?

    Is there any way to set a quarterly reminder in the calendar?

    Create  a new event. In the repeat section, select custom, and then enter the number of weeks for a quarter (~12). Not perfect, but close.

    OS X Mail: Troubleshooting sending and receiving email messages - Apple Support
    Google Mail recently implemented additional security measures "for your protection" of course. The manifestation of that may be the requirement to create a unique, "application-specific" password for each one of the various Google services you may use. That requirement probably includes Google Mail. So if the above Apple Support document doesn't resolve the problem, research Google's application-specific password requirements, and how to configure Mail to use it.
    I asked the Hosts to edit or obscure the email address in your post.

  • Duplicate emails sent from two macs from Calendar

    Hello,
    I have a MacBook Air and an iMac, both on the same Apple ID.  I use the Calendar app daily.  When I set up an "email alert," though, each computer sends me an email, so I end up with two copies of every Calendar reminder. 
    Any ideas? Thank you!

    Hi Sam,
    Just to eliminate possible causes of error ...
    Could you stick a File Saver action block straight after the SQL Query.  Ensure that this file saver is placed before the repeater.
    Save the Output of your SQL Query as the Text of this file.  Use a Unique Name for the file ...
    e.g.
    "C:/Temp/EmailTester_" & guid & ".txt"
    The guid will ensure that you have a unique name for each run.
    Use front-slash "/" instead of back-slash "\" in the link editor.
    Check the results of the SQL query in the saved file when you are getting double emails.  This will help you be certain about where the error is.
    Cheers,
    Jai.

  • SMS and/or email notifications from iPhone/iPod Touch calendar(s)

    My wife and I have iPod Touch's that we use to sync 2 calendars. Is there ANY way to get SMS or email notifications of an event?
    By syncing google calendar it will work ONLY if the event is created via google calendar - it won't work if it's created on the iPod.
    I bought GoCal which says it has this feature, but I couldn't get it to work.
    If i could get email notification i could just setup a filter to forward only those emails to my verizon dumb phones email address.
    The point of this is to have a calendar that stays in sync, but we don't have our iPods with us every minute of the day. . . so we need the sms alert of the event.

    Thank you very much

  • In ical why does my wife get an email everytime I update our home calendar but when she makes changes I don't?

    I have shared a calendar with my wife aptely called "Home" to which every time I update or rearrange something she gets an email, I understand that this is quite useful for informing her of any changes but when she makes changes I receive no notifications/email. The problem I/she has is that when updating especially on the mac I change alot of things very quickly and she ends up with a flooded inbox informing her of small changes such as I've changed the time by half an hour or maybe a spelling has changed, does anybody out there know how to turn off the emails, we both regulary check the notifications bar on our ios devices and can see whats planned for the day etc so why burden the servers in the sky sending one way emails?? Any assistance would be greatly appreciated guys

    OK, I don't have the exact same problem, but here are a few things you could try.
    1. Go to www.icloud.com and login. Select your calendar from the icons and you will then see the cogwheel in the top right corner. Click on it and enter your settings. Under ADVANCED, there is a tick box saying "Send me a copy of event invitations and updates"
    2. On the shared calendar on the left hand side of the calendar you are in, it should show a list of your calendars. The shared ones are green whilst the others are just white/transparent - Click on the green one of the calendar that is being shared (The clarify, this needs to be done within your wifes icloud, not yours and she needs to click your "Home" calendar green bit). This opens up the Tick box "Email me when this calendar changes" - deselect this.
    Good luck.
    For what its worth, here is my problem. I keep getting invitations for all my girlfriends new appointments. They are coming up in the same invitations box that you get notified in when someone invites you to a lunch where you select reject, accept etc. But these just have an OK select button. I can't seem to find anything that rectifys this, and it has only happened since I upgraded to Mountain Lion, but my girlfriend has not.
    There is nothing on the web to describe this problem so far and I have gone through every setting trying to rectify it. If anyone can help on this one, that'd be great.

  • How can I automatically notify the invitees by email about an event on the calendar on a certain date ?

    Hello,
    I want to start an event in the calendar, on this very day, for after 2 weeks (just giving an example).
    Also I want to add an notification, that is going to notify me and all the invitees, for example 10 before the very event.
    How can I do that?
    I tried to do it, but it only reminds me, not the invitees.
    Thanks in advance!
    Have a wonderful day!

    I don't enter it , it gets it from my card and i have written 2 there and its allowing me to choose between those two.
    Maybe we are talking about different things if you can just let me know the procedure of doing it from the beginning, I will be very grateful, if not thanks!

  • How to send a text message reminder of a calendar appointment through iCloud?

    We use iCloud calendar for patient bookings in our Physio clinic. I've been told you can set up reminder messages to be sent as a text message (synced with contacts) through iCloud but have not been able to work out how to do this.
    If anyone has any suggestions that would be great!

    You cannot set up reminders for events that will be sent via iMessage or SMS.

  • Why did creating an email address in iCloud destroy the calendar?

    I have a friend with an iPhone 3gs and a Windows PC. She has an Apple ID and has been using iCloud for everything EXCEPT email. Yesterday, I created an email address in her iCloud account. This morning, she calls and says her Calendar events are gone, and some items are missing from her Contacts. I logged into her iCloud account to check, and sure enough, the Calendar is blank, no events.
    What would cause this? More importantly, how can I recover her information? Will doing a restore from a previous backup fix this?
    Any ideas appreciated.
    KK

    She had an Apple ID that was tied to her iTunes account and also to a Mobile Me account (originally) that she had logged into iCloud on her phone, but her email option was turned off in Settings. I just logged into her iCloud account on the web, and when I clicked on the email icon, it prompted me to create an email account, as none existed. It probably has to do with being a carry-over from Mobile Me. So when I created the account, then I turned email on in Settings for her.
    I don't see that any of that should have affected her calendar.
    BTW, thanks for your replies, I appreciate the help.
