How do I accept or decline a calendar invitation in iOS8 without sending a response?

This specific scenario is Exchange 2013 and iOS8.
I want to be able to accept/decline/tentative in response to a calendar invitation from my iPhone without sending a response to the inviter.
I do not think Exchange probably has anything to do with it, but that is the set up.
Thanks!

Decline a call and send it directly to voicemail. Do one of the following:
Press the Sleep/Wake button twice quickly.
Press and hold the center button on your headset for about two seconds. Two low beeps confirm that the call was declined.
Tap Decline (if iPhone is awake when the call comes in).
Respond with a text message instead of answering. Tap Message and choose a reply or tap Custom. To create your own default replies, go to Settings > Phone > Respond with Text, then tap any of the default messages and replace it with your own text.
Remind yourself to return the call. Tap Remind Me and indicate when you want to be reminded.

When declining a calendar invite, how do I propose an alternative time or add a note?

Using Apple's calendar, how do I decline a calendar invite and propose an alternative time and include a note?

No, I seemed to only get the three options Accept, Decline and Maybe. There are times when I want to decline with a note of why or decline and propose a different time.

How can i accept meeting request on calendar

Hello,
How can I accept a meeting notice in my calendar? The meeting will pop up but I do not have the choice to accept or decline.
Thanks,
KK

I don't think you can act on the notification pop-up.
Open the calendar app. You should see a button in the lower right that looks like a tray with an arrow pointing down. Tap that and select the appropriate invitation (if more than one). Open the invitation and click on Accept.

How to get accept or decline a call

How can I get my phone set to where it says to answer or decline a call

You only have the option to Accept or Decline if the phone rings while it is unlocked/you are using it. Otherwise, you will just have to hit the volume or lock buttons to silence the ringer.

When I accept a calendar invite iPhone 5 is sending multiple acceptance mails

Hi there,
I'm hoping someone can assist as I'm driivng my colleagues crazy.
Just moved over from an iPhone 4 to iPhone 5. Everything has been copied over ok and I was happy as Larry.
However I just got a meeting request from our works mail server (Exchange) which I accepted in the calendar app. The phone then proceeded to send 30odd acceptance messages to the invitee who just so happened to be my boss. I switched the phone off and sure enough the stopped only to resume once I switched the phone back on again.
I thought perhaps something didn't quite copy over correctly so I removed the exchange account completely and re-added it. I got a member of my staff to test with a new meeting request and exactly the same thing happend again. This time I just switched off the calendar and switched it back on which seems to have solved the problem of the multiple messages.
Obviously this not only mega annoying for the person getting spammed by my acceptance mails it's also killing my battery.
I wasn't having this issue on my iPhone 4 which was running iOS 6 so the only things that have changed is the phone and also the service provider. I'm sure former will blame the latter and the latter will blame the former.
Before I spend time on the phone to the network has anyone else experienced similar? And how did you resolve it?

I have the exact same request. I especially don't want to send a response when I receive an invite to a large meeting with a lot of invitees. Have you figured it out?

Accepting calendar Invitations and IOS8.02

Since upgrading to iOS 8.02 on my iPad Air i have noticed numerous calendar invitations from my wife that appear in my calendar but when I click OK I am not able to accept them. I was able to accept them on my iPhone 6 and iCloud.com but not on the iPad Air. I have had the same problem with other appointments where I could accept them on the iPad Air but not on the iPhone 6. The invitation appears in the calendar but I still have the INBOX (1), indicating the invitation was not accepted. Killing the calendar app and rebooting all devices has not solved the issue. Also accepting them in iCloud.com has not solved the problem.

I have the same issue. It seems crazy to go to the trouble of setting up MobileMe calendars to enable them to be accessed from Mac, iPhone, iPad etc yet only be able to add an received invitation to a calendar on the Mac with no apparent way of moving it into one of the MobileMe calendars. Even odder as one can create a new event in an "On My Mac" calendar and later move it to an "[email protected]" calendar. Why not a received event?
I hope I am missing something. Any ideas out there?

How can I respond to a calendar invitation without sending a response e-mail back to the sender?

My job requires many appointments, therefore my boss sends me multiple calendar invitations each day. It is getting quite annoying for him when he receives a response e-mail every single time. Is there a way to turn this feature off?

Hello there, David.
The following link from the online iPhone User Guide provides some great information on how to adjust that notification setting:
Share iCloud calendars
http://help.apple.com/iphone/7/#/iph7613c4fb
Particularly:
Turn off notifications for shared calendars. When someone modifies a shared calendar, you’re notified of the change. To turn off notifications for shared calendars, go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Shared Calendar Alerts.
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
Pedro.

Exchange calendar not allowing me to send meeting responses

Hi
Been using iphones with our SBS 2003 exchange server for a while now. I've gone from a 3G with V2 software to my current 3GS with 4.1. I think that the problem started when I got the 3GS with 4.1.
Basically, everything works with exchange apart from one very annoying thing.
If anyone sends me a calendar (meeting) invitation, it alerts me on the phone, allows me to see the meeting, but if I press accept, the phone ALWAYS says ' Calendar Invitation - Your response to the invitation cannot be sent'
It then deletes the meeting from the phone!.
Everything else seems to work, mail push, sending mail, creating contacts syncs with the work servers, I can also send out meeting invitations from my phone. It's just I can't respond to meetings i've received.
Anyone else have this?
Thanks
Andy

Has anyone considered/investigated the ActiveSync piece of the problem? I'm in a corporate environment with iPhones, iPads, Androids, and Blackberries. The only mobile device without problems are the BB's, which we run on a BES. We also have Exchange2003 and find that both iOS and Android devices ALL have issues with calendaring, primarily recurring appointments/meetings. The common denominator - MS ActiveSync. I *did* hear a rumor that Exchange2010 might fix the problem.
Well I'm in the same vote - we haven't investigated Android as of yet; however your notes are not promising for taking that road.
Exchange 2007 SP2.
BES 5.0.1 in use; BB 9300, 9700 (BB5), 9780 & 9800 (BB6).
iOS4.3.3/.4 on iPhone 4 in 2 main US offices, and now iPad 2 4.3.3 in our Corporate head office.
I have iOS5.0 Beta 3 in testing and have duplicated the infamous error with regards to accepting meeting requests on behalf of someone (delagate) yet iOS STILL thinks that the meeting is for the person receiving the meeting request (EITHER in Mail or in Calendar). Oddly enough we CAN deny the meeting request - even in iOS 4.3.3.
IOS was just updated today so I'll give it another go on Monday morning bright and early.
I do have a working case with Apple tier3 and soon to work with their Enterprise team on this matter.

I can't receive calendar invites but I can send them?

The calendar will remain on the server and should be restored when you add back the account. Regardless of that, you can back up a calendar by exporting it:

Outlook Calendar invite - Not able to send from exchange server.

Help me to send calendar invite without installing outlook on the specified server. Please do the needful.

Hi
It is probably that the stuff you doing is for outlook and because outlook is not installed it cannot find the classes.
Hope this helps. Please remember to click “Mark as Answer” on the post that helps you, and to click “Unmark as Answer” if a marked post does not actually answer your question. This can be beneficial to other community members reading the thread.

No option to accept or deny iCloud Calendar invitations

Hi all,
A problem I've been having recently, if I share one of my calendars in iCloud with someone, they get the email notification with the link to click to 'join' the calendar, but once the iCloud Calendar interface loads there aren't any options to actually accept or deny that request.
It used to work for be before when I was sharing calendars between these same accounts but as of 2-3 days ago whenever I sent an invitation to join the calendar (not invite for any event in it - just to clarify), and the other user clicks on the link they get in their email, no option is given to accept that invitation nor does the calendar appear for them.
Anyone can offer any assistance?

This bug(?) still around... still can't share any calendars with anyone...

How to get addresses to autofill in calendar invitations?

When I create an event in Calendar on my iPhone, I can send it to invitees. I type in a few letters, and I get a selection from my Contacts -- same as typing in the To: field of an email.
When my wife sends a calendar event from her iPhone, she gets no autofill for the address. She types in phil, and my address does not appear, for example. Her mail program on the iPhone fills in addresses normally.
How can I get her Calendar address fields to act smart and do autofill?
Thanks,
Phil

Ok It seems not just a problem of 24 hour time appointments that won't sync but all appointments I make on my iphone in calendar won't sync to calendar on my mac?

Don't send responses to Calendar invites on iPhone

Quick question. I tried a search and didn't find anything.
On my old phone (Treo 750) I had the ability to accept, decline or tentatively accept invitations - but the big thing I loved was that I didn't need to send a response to the original sender. I was given the option to edit response, send response, or decline to send response.
Does anyone know if its possible to take action on a calendar invite, but not to send the response to the meeting owner?

1) I don't see a way to not send a reply when accepting/declining a calendar invite on the iPhone. Definitely an omission.
2) I also get calendar invites for entries I set up myself, as if I need to respond to them. Doesn't make sense, can't figure it out.
UPDATE - when I reply to someone else's invite on my PC, it pushes another invite to my calendar inbox. Why do I need to reply on the iPhone when I already have on my PC???

Change reply to accept or decline iCal event

How does one change an iCal reply from Accept to Decline, or from Decilne to Accept?
Can one make a comment upon replying?
When I sent an iCal invitation to my husband, he declined it, but later he wanted to accept it. We cannot figure out how he can change his reply.
I use iCal on my Mac and iOS devices. He does not use iCal; he uses Windows. (He doesn't know how to save the ics to his calendar, either, but I will send him some How-to links on that process.)

I had this trouble -- until I made sure that in my Contacts -- under the "Me" person -- I had every email address as used by whomever -- set in my personal contact. Seems like if the address they use isn't associated with yourself, you can't reply (because it doesn't think its you of course).
By "Me" of course, I don't me an entry named "Me" but rather the entry for yourself that has a shadow of a face next to it and when you see/edit it -- in the photo area has a little "me" .

Calendar invitations accepted on iPhone 6 not showing in iCloud calendar

Hi
When I accept mime-attachment.ics calendar invitations on my iPhone 6, the appointment in created in my iPhone calendar, but for some reason doesn't show up in the iCloud calendar (accessed through iCloud.com). I have the latest version iOS8.1.1 on my iPhone 6. This problem has started in the last 3 weeks. I have a similar problem on my iPad. The result is that I can't sync the appointments created by accepting mime-attachment.ics invitations across devices.

I'm experiencing the same issue, but I found a workaround until it is fixed. After accepting the invite via an ICS attachment, I change the calendar from Work to Home, then back to Work, and then the appointment appears in iCloud, on my Mac, etc.
Hope that helps for now.
