Group calendar etc

Hi people
We have just et up a new SLS in a new office, with very few hiccups so far, windows computers connected, imac connected (duh).
I have been reading the ical server admin PDF, but cant seem to find the best way to set up default calendars for each user.
ie, we are a small sustainable architecture firm which has several fields (calendars) which are used by everyone. Do we need to have each user set up the calendar list for them selves or can I set them all at once?
Still trying get a group calendar sorted too so everyone can see project start/finish dates etc.
cheers
Tim

  • How do I create a group calendar in iCal Server 3?

    Hello everyone,
    I have set up a Mac Mini server to address the calendaring needs of my company.  I have also turned on the iCal service using the Server app in the Lion OS.  While the shared calendaring functions for individual users of iCal are great, my company is in need of general office calendar for postings of things like vacation times, company holidays, special conferences, etc.  Is there a way to configure the Mac Mini server to allow the setup of such a calendar?
    Maximus. Prime

    Okay, with everyone's help, I believe I have found a resolution to this issue.  I am very grateful to everyone who has contributed this discussion.  Your help has been invaluable.
    1.  The first thing I did was to ensure that the iCal and Wiki servers were both running.
    2.  Next, I created a user whose sole purpose was to create wikis on the server.  (In retrospect, I probably didn't have to do this, as any administrative account, which is what I have, can also make wikis).
    3.  I then created a wiki.  To do this open up your Web browser and enter in the name of your server followed by "/wiki" (no quotes).  An example of this is servername.local/wiki.  (If you are unsure as to whether or not DNS on your local network is working, you can enter the IP address of the server followed by /wiki).
    4.  Next login into the wiki by clicking on the lock icon in the toolbar.  (You can use the account you created earlier or any admin account on the iCal server for login).
    5.  Click the Wikis button.
    6.  Click the plus sign in the toolbar, then click New Wiki.
    7.  Enter a name and optional description.  It is much better to enter a short name with no spaces.  This will matter in a later step.
    8.  Next you will see the Set Wiki Access dialog box.  Here is where you can enter users of the wiki (calendar), and their permissions (i.e. Owner, Read-Write, etc.).
    9.  When done with the previous step, click create, and you should be taken to the "welcome" page of your wiki.
    10. Click the gear icon in the toolbar then select settings.
    11. Select Services in the sidebar, put a check into the Calendar box, and select Save.
    12. You should now see a link for Calendar underneath your toolbar.  Select it, then select Settings to adjust your timezone settings, etc.
    13. You can log out of the wiki at this point.
    14. Go to one of the users who was given access to the wiki in step 8.
    15. Open iCal -- Preferences then select the Accounts tab.
    **Now here is where things get "tricky."**
    16. It is likely that this user has a functioning account on your iCal server.  If you go to the Server Settings tab of the account and check the Server Path, you will see an entry similar to /principals/__uids__/longstringofalphanumericcaharacters/.
    17. Replace the long string of alphanumeric characters with "wiki-wikiname" (no quotes).  The wikiname is the name you entered in step 7.
    18. Close the iCal preferences box, and close iCal.
    19. The user may be prompted to re-enter his/her password.  Do so, and afterward you should be have access to the wiki-based group calendar.
    UH OH...what about the user's normal account?!?!?!
    20. Go back into the account preferences tab of iCal and re-add the user's normal iCal account with his/her normal credentials.  All of the user's calendar information should return because it is on the server and backed up regularly...right?
    This solution appears to be working for me so far.  I have verified that users who can only read from the wiki calendar do not have the ability to edit the calendar.  Of course, those who can edit the calendar are able to do.  These test users are also able to use their normal iCal accounts without any issues.

    Sorry for bashing on about this.  Just called Apple at 1.800.694.7466 and they told me the issue isn't with Mavericks per se but with iTunes 11.1.5. 
    According the helpful woman I spoke to, no one at Apple knows why Apple decided to remove the ability to sync everything via USB.  She hears complaints about the change and knows it makes life difficult for folks. 
    She also recommended, as you did, to contact www.apple.com/feedback about the change.  She says Apple does in fact have a group of people who do read the comments.
    Whenever we talk about iTunes, it's assumed we are referring to the most current version, unless otherwise specified.

I would start narrowing down the problem by removing group members one by one and seeing if there is a particular member which is causing the problem. Then look at that account and see if there is anything different/unusual etc.

  • How to create a group calendar?

    Hello,
    i am sorry but this is one more question on wiki-group-calendars.
    *In short:*
    I am not able to create a group calendar with the wiki frontend. the calendar that is created with a wiki is owned by the admin of the wiki. So it is always a personal calendar that cannot be shared in iCal.
    LONG:
    I want to create a group calendar that is viewed and edited through iCal.app and the web service. Apple´s "wiki deployment" guide says on page 57:
    +"The web calendar allows you to easily schedule events for yourself or your group. ...+
    +There are *two types of web calendars: personal and group*. You can send and receive event invitations through the personal calendar but not through the group calendar. Also, *while anyone in a group can create or edit events in a group calendar*, you can edit only events in your own personal calendar or event invitations you send to other people.+
    +The web calendar uses iCal Server to store events and invitations. ..."+
    But there is not mentioned how to create a group calendar. The calendar created with the wiki web-frontend belongs to the admin of that particular wiki. This is why the calendar data ist stored in folder named with the UUID of the wiki admin. Also the alias "http://server.fqdn:8008/principals/groups/mygroupname/" which i provided in iCal turns into ..._uids_UUID-of-the-wiki-admin and only the wiki-admin can access this calendar in iCal.app.
    My research on this topic reveals that there were in issue that should be resolved in 10.6.4 (that is running on our Server). So, again, how to create a group calendar?
    Thanks, Philipp.

    you need to go to the wiki page and add the wiki's there and then in the setting of the wiki is where you set permissions and services such as calendar, blog, and podcast you can also set all permissions for the wiki in the settings tab
    fyi none of my groups were available unless i logged into the wiki as the Directory Admin not Server Admin

    Could you be more specific farmer tan, please?
    You said "you need to go to the wiki page and add the wiki's there...." What is the "wiki page" you mention? Is that some place I go to via the browser or the Server Admin tool?
    I went to http://ical.mysite.com/ical/ and logged in as the Directory Administrator but didn't see anything resembling what you described.
    Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

  • 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!

    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.

  • How do I access group calendars on 10.8 server from a calendar client?

    Hi,
    I have a brand new installation of 10.8.2 . I installed the server app and started Calendar, Contacts, DNS, File Sharing, Mail, Open Directory and the Wiki services. I created a group with some users in it. I also created a group wiki and enabled the calendar for that wiki. The user group has r/w access to the wiki. The web interface to the wiki works from a client 10.8.2 client system. I can edit the group calendar through the web interface. I created an account in the Calendar application that connects to the server and shows the users' calendar. I altered the server path to /principals/__uids__/wiki-GROUPNAME/.
    The calendar shown is still that for the user and not the one of the group. Hence my question: how do I access group calendars on a 10.8 server from the calendar application on a client?

    Forgot to mention, you can techinically force it to work, but iCal breaks it for some unknow reason, taking it back to the users account after a day or two.  The best work around has been to create a new user, named the group name, and then allow delegates to access the calendar.  This however screws things up with the iphone calendar, as it didn't/doesn't handle delegates.  Again, hoping Apple comes to their senses on this.
    You can still delegated calendars on iOS, but the setup is a little tricky.  You have to add an entirely new calendar account, and enter the full ugly url with the users uuid.  It would be so nice if iOS just supported CalDav delegation.

  • One Apple ID, two iPhones, same iCloud. How do I get rid of this without losing contacts, calendars etc?

    Hi there, hope someone can help.
    My mum upgraded about 18 months ago to an iphone 5 and to set it up we used my Apple ID as it was linked to my dads bank card. Had absolutely no problems with this, everything has maintained separate.
    However when my mum decided to update to ios7 (and as she is a novice has not backed her phone up since upgrading) At first it appeared that when she updated she had lost all her contacts, calendars etc but this was restored through iCloud.
    Now our phones appear completely linked. Eg when I receive a FaceTime call it goes to my mums phone as well.
    So is there any way of splitting our iCloud account without having to lose all our data? Especially as my mum has months worth of business meetings. To make it worse we currently live the other side of the country from each other, so going to the Genius Bar seems rather pointless!

    If have separate iCloud accounts and want to keep your all your iCloud data separate, you can create separate user accounts for each of you, then sign into your individual iCloud account within your user account.
    If you want to just add both iCloud calendars on your Mac, you can sign into one iCloud account in System Preferences>iCloud, then add the second account in System Preferences>Internet Accounts>iCloud and only check Calendars with this second account.

    I would also like this issue addressed.
    I am using a Plantronics Voyager Pro+ and when it is connected to my iPhone 4, email and text sounds are not audible through the phone. The phone just vibrates when a new text or email is received.
    I don't really care if it plays through the headset, but it should at least play through the phone. I tested the headset from a BlackBerry and the alerts play fine.

  • Using a wiki group calendar in ical

    Dear all,
    I have searched the forum now for quite some hours but I haven't found any sollution. I am running a Lion Server 10.7.2. I have setup iCal server and a wiki. I am trying to set up a group calendar, which is working, BUT I am having trouble to setup my iCal accessing that specific calendar.
    Let's presume I am trying to get this work for testing in my own LAN first, so I am currently working with IP-addresses.
    Server IP: 192.168.100.37
    wiki's name: test
    I can access the calendar through the webserver but of course I wanna use iCal.
    I have learned from other posts that the iCal-account should be set up like this
    http://mainserver.example.com:8008/principals/__uids__/wiki-intern/
    This would mean for my server
    http://192.168.100.37:8008/principals/_uids_/test
    if I am correct. However iCal is telling me afterwards that no calendar has been found on the server. Does anyone have an idea what I am doing wrong?
    Thank you so much.
