HT2480 Inviting to share calendar

I work in an office where I'm the only Apple user. At first, I was synced up with the office email on my MacBook, iPhone, and iPad but now that we're on MS Outlook and Exchange I'm out of the loop. I'm able to get my email again and I can receive invites to share others calendars but I don't know how to share my calendar with others.  I'm sure there's a simple solution I'm missing. Any suggestions or tips?

Hi,
Do you mean other users who share calendar to this user cannot view his name in Properties > Permission from Outlook?
Please confirm whether he can view or edit the shared calendar to verify the permission is assigned successfully or not. If the permission setting is successful, please check whether he is listed in OWA view.
If the calendar permission cannot be shared correctly with him in Outlook, we can try running the following command in Exchange side to set permission:
Add-MailboxFolderPermission –identity [email protected]:\Calendar -User ThisUser -AccessRights Editor
Thanks,

  • I can't send invites or share calendars with a certain person

    I'm trying to send an invite to my partner (both on @me "icloud" accounts). If i use the mac to share an invite i put her address in and it never shows up so i have to fill it in in whole, then it says you cannot share a calander with yourself
    Strange that it should say that as my account is in my apple id.
    If i try to share a calender through iCloud.com her name & address comes up when typing but i get this when i click send
    I can send invites & share calenders with other people and she can send share a calender with myself ?
    Any ideas on what i can do ?

    They said that it wasn't them, they contacted Apple and they were aware of the problem. But still Apple didn't know if it was hardware of software problems.

  • Why when an invitation to share a calendar is accepted does it appear as tentative and not show up in calendar list?

    I've sent an invitation to shar a calendar.  The invitation appeared in receiver's notifications and was accepted. However, the calendar is not appearing on the receiver's calendar list, and when I check my "sharing settings" the address is not checked as received by appears with a question mark to indicate tentative. How is that even possible when the invitation is only decline or accept?  I sent the samereceiver an invitation to a different calendar at the same time.  It was received, accepted and appears on the calendar list with a checked box and so appears on the receiver's calendar.Both calendar invitations were sentfrom the same computer, from the same sender, on the same day to the same receiver.  Both appeared in the receiver's notifications, both were accepted, one successfully and the other not.  Help.  I'm out of ideas.

    Sorry if my explanation of the problem was not clear, but the HD's are fine. I have checked them using fsck, disk warrior, TechTool Pro. they are fine. The drives are not showing up at all, and SATA shows "no information" Once in a while SATA will start working again briefly, then just GO AWAY! And the PCI SATA card I installed acts the same way. I am leaving one HD in the logicboard and one in the PCI card and they both go away (not the whole PCI card, just the HD).
    Thanks for the reply.
    OK, since you are also having things go away with the PCI SATA controller, this could be a problem with either (a) PCI-X bridge or (b) the U3 Memory controller, as they are the two things in the chain between the CPU and where you are having the problems.
    Do you have other PCI cards in use? If so, then if you lose contact with them, that would be a clue.
    On the other hand, you seemed to indicate that even when the Tempo lost the HD, you could still see the Tempo in System Profiler? If the Tempo is still shown in profiler, then, we have a real mystery on our hands. Of course, a system log file wouldn't help because you have lost it, unless you are booting from an external FW drive.
    Watson, the game is afoot.

  • Invitation to Share a Calendar Shows UID Instead of User Name

    Hello Everyone!
    My Open Directory users are able to share calendars to eachother, however when the invitation comes through to be accepted, instead of Calendar saying:
    "Tim Timmers" invited you to a shared calendar.
    it says:
    /principles/_uid_/9BBCC.....etc./ invited you to a shared calendar.
    Essentially the user name is being replaced with the UID of the user's calendar data location when viewing the invite.
    Has anyone encountered this same issue or have any clues to how to fix this?
    OD is running, users have proper email addresses associated with their OD account and the invitation can be accepted like normal.
    We're running OS X Server 10.8.2, server app 2.1.1
    Thanks for the help!

    (Me too post)
    I have the same issue in two different environments/networks. The first is just as you describe, an OD with networked accounts, the other network has only server local accounts.

  • How do I resend an invitation to share a calendar after the person initially declined?

    I wanted to share a calendar with my wife, and sent her a invitation to share, but then realized I wanted to change the name of calendar beforehand, and asked her to decline the request. After I changed the name and resent the request, iCalendar (on my laptop, and on icloud.com) immediately changes the invite to declined. It would seem that after one decline, the system is thinking the invite is spam or something and is blocking the request from going through.
    Is there a way to reset this so that I can send a new request?
    Thanks.

    Easiest way (after having to deal with this issue myself), is to go back into the event, remove the invitees completely, and save the event.  Then open the event back up, and add the invitees once more, and save the event.  They'll then receive a brand new invite for the same event, with any changes that you've made.

  • Can my secondary email address be used to receive invitations to share a calendar?

    I currently have an @me.com email address for my ID. I never use this address, but have another address that is widely known.
    Some colleagues want to share calendars via private sharing. They sent the invitation to my usual address, so I cannot connect to my iCloud which has the me.com ID.
    If I add my better known email address to my iCloud account, will I then be able to receive the invitations?
    I do not want to have my me.com account available for active use.

    When you "added" your Apple ID, was that in the iCloud/Find My iPhone settings? If you acquired the iPhone from someone else and they had previously set up iCloud with their own Apple ID, they need to remove the iPhone from their iCloud account. Until they do, you will not be able to activate the iPhone.
    If that's not what you meant, please clarify exactly what is occurring.
    Regards.

  • Share calendar with a group

    I have a group of roughly 15 people with whom I am constantly sending events and then having to send updates and cancelations.  I am wondering that the easiest way would be to share a calendar so that I can update events, create new ones, cancel, etc... without having ot constantly send out e-mails.  any thoughts?

    Hi rewyance2k,
    If you have an iCloud account, you can create and share calendars.
    The articles below will show you how:
    Click on the link below to see more details and screenshots. 
    I've quoted some helpful highlights for you:
    iCloud: Share a calendar with others
    You can share a calendar both publicly and privately with other people. Sharing gives you flexibility in managing calendars. For example, you could create a calendar for your child’s sports team and share it privately with just the coaches so they can edit it. You could also share it publicly with all the parents so they can view (but not change) it whenever they want. For specifics about viewing and editing privileges for shared calendars, and how participants can access the calendars, see Calendar sharing overview.
    iCloud: Calendar sharing overview
    Sharing works as follows:
    Public calendars can be shared with anyone. To access public calendars, visitors need to use Calendar (or iCal with OS X v10.7.5) on a Mac, Microsoft Outlook on a Windows computer, or any other app that supports the iCalendar file format.A public calendar can’t be edited by anyone but the calendar owner (the creator).
    Private calendars can be shared with other iCloud users.Participants can view the calendar using iCloud Calendar, Calendar (or iCal with OS X v10.7.5) on a Mac, Microsoft Outlook on a Windows computer, or the Calendar app on iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.As the owner (creator) of a shared calendar, you assign edit privileges to the invitees to control who can modify the calendar. There are two types of access privileges that can be assigned:
    View Only access:Participants with View Only access can:
    View the calendar and change their view (from day to week, for example), without affecting the view of other participants
    Change their own calendar preferences
    View & Edit access:Participants with View & Edit access privileges can do everything listed above, plus:
    Create and delete calendar events
    Change details (for example, the name, date, and time) for calendar events
    Track the responses of guests invited to a calendar event
    No participant, regardless of the access privileges assigned, can invite new people to a shared calendar.
    Note:   If multiple participants try to edit a shared calendar at the same time, the changes that are saved first are kept and reflected in the calendar. The person whose changes arenʼt saved sees a message that his or her changes werenʼt saved. 
    If you disable your iCloud account, any shared calendars you created become unavailable; all participants automatically receive an email notifying them that the calendar is no longer shared.
    You create Groups for email at www.icloud.com as well.  Once created, they will appear organized on your iPhone.

    From your description, I recommend you follow the steps below to use Outlook safe mode to determine whether the issue is related to add-ins.
    Run -> Type Outlook.exe /safe -> Click OK

  • I am trying to share calendars with my husband (using Google calendars). He can see my calendars, but I am having trouble seeing his. We both use iPhones.

    I am trying to share calendars with my husband (using Google calendars). He can see my calendars, but I am having trouble seeing his. We both use iPhones. We both have company email addresses. I have had to install and uninstall my gmail info on my iPhone multiple times due to errors sending and receiving emails from my company email address on my phone. For some reason, all of my emails are getting stuck in my outbox when my gmail account is installed on my phone. When I delete it, my emails get sent automatically. This is really annoying! I would do without the gmail account, but I need to share calendars with my husband. How do I fix this?

    If you have two-step verification turned on in your email account, you'll have to log in with a browser and turn it off.

  • How to view my family share calendar in outlook for mac 2011 (ical)

    Hey All
    Problem:
    Want to view my family share calendar in outlook for mac 2011.
    Want to have them sync on the fly (push)
    Currently running 2 exchange mailboxes which have their own mailboxes and calendars which you can toggle between.
    For the PC this is a relatively straight forward task.. You can add an additional calendar to outlook and you are away. Wife's PC can view her own personal exchange calendar and on a separate tab she can view, edit, print etc the family share calendar.
    For outlook for Mac, I've tried a few work arounds and none of them actually work, all the Apple documentation available doesn't really cover this.
    Any help would be much appreciated
    Cheers

    Hi,
    According to your description, I notice that Outlook for Mac for Office 365 cannot open shared calendar.
    If I misunderstand your concern, please do not hesitate to let me know.
    Which account are you used, Exchange account or Microsoft account?
    Would you please login OWA and test to open this shared calendar?
    Outlook for Mac cannot open the shared calendar which is a sub-calendar, you have to ask calendar owner share all calendars under the default "Calendar" folder.
    More details about it, for your reference:

  • Share Calendar but NOT Reminders

    I have an iCloud account where I coordinate my email, contact and calendar in order to sync between my iMac, iPhone and iPad.
    I also sync that calendar with my wife's MacBook and her iPhone.
    This all works, but one thing is annoying.  When I set a calendar event to have a reminder, it pops up on my iMac, my iPhone, my iPad, her MacBook and her iPhone.  Is there any scenario I could be using so I can have a single calendar event but specify where the reminder will pop up?  For example, if I want to be reminded about an upcoming doctor appointment but she does not need to be bothered by the reminder, or if she wants to be reminded about an upcoming manicure, but I do not want to be bothered?
    I have seen some discussion about having multiple calendars (e.g. one for me and one for my wife), and then sharing them.  If I did that, I believe the reminders would only pop up on the devices that own the events.  BUT, would it allow us to "share time".  For example, since we have only one car, we need to be able to coordinate appointments, simple on one calendar, but perhaps not so on multiple.  Also, scheduling events would be difficult, potentially because of access issues (read/write vs. read only).
    It seems one calendar with read/write access for both makes the most sense, but I get tired of being interrupted by her reminders, and she especially gets tired of seeing mine, which easily outnumber hers 10 to 1.
    If no scenario exists, I would like to suggest to Apple to allow the ability to direct reminders to specific devices.  Then, not only could I set reminders for my iMac or her MacBook, but I might also be interested in having certin reminders pop up on my iPhone but NOT on my iPad.
    Any suggestions?

    I strongly endorse William's plea to add this functionality. My whole family shares calendars, and NEED the ability to personalize the reminders.  Hello Apple?!!

  • Is there a way to prevent children from changing or deleting Family Share calendar events?

    We recently set up Family Share. My wife and I have been sharing a calendar to coordinate our efforts keeping up with all the activities the family is involved in. We recently started to migrate some of our shared events to the Family Share calendar, only for our daughter to delete them, almost immediately. I've spoken with her about how the whole family uses this calendar, and that she shouldn't delete them, but I'd rather ensure that she can't, on accident, delete or change events again.

    I'm not sure you are sharing the calendar like this, so apologies if it is not appropriate…
    iCloud has the option of sharing public & private calendars. Private ones are read+write, Public ones are read only. Public calendars are publicly accessible if someone guesses the URL.
    You could share the calendar with her as a read only one if you were happy with it being public.
    Dig into the settings in the place you setup the calendar. I looked on iCloud.com for the standard options.
    Another option is to use another service to publish the calendar like Google, another email provider or another company like fruux.com. They may have better permissions for the shared calendar without opening it up to the entire internet to view.

  • Can not receive other iCloud invitations in my calendar inbox

    Hi,
    I have a really annoying problem on my iOS devices.
    First the setting:
    I have an iPhone 5, iPad 3 and MacBook Air. Historically I have TWO iCloud-Accounts (started with a iTunes-Account for buying apps and stuff and made myself a MobileMe-Account later, before they merged everything into iCloud).
    For calendar, contacts and e-mail-services I use my me.com-Account which is NOT the account on which all my devices are registered - this my cause the problems, but I am not sure.
    Now for the problem: My girlfriend uses an iPhone 4S with an iCloud-account.
    If she sends me any invites, I only get them as e-mails with an attached ical-file. I can manage to accept invitations by using the hyperlinks in the e-mail and add the date to my calendar by using the ical-file attached, but for example if she removes a appointment, I just get the e-mail but I can never remove it from my calendar since there is no "remove" hyperlink and I can also not edit the foreign appointment in my calendar.
    This really *** and now for my question:
    Why do I not get her invites as a regular invitation in my calendar inbox???

    Unfortunately that isn't possible, if you have any suggestions that you think might enhance iCloud you can send Apple your feedback here.
