Ical 5.0.2 won't let me add an invitee...thoughts?

I have tried numerous ideas (I'm a basic Mac user), but can't seem to get iCal 5.0.2 (new upgrade for me) to add an invitee successfully.  Thoughts?  Thank you!

None of the Apple calendars have been maintained or updated since 2010.  Not surpring that they are inaccurate.  The other thing you should know is that most calendar subscription entries are not editable.  This may explain your issues with not being able to add additional entries on the marked holidays.  On the other hand, when a calendar publisher makes a change in their calendar, that change will be reflected in your subscription immediately.
I'm not Jewish, but for Jewish holidays many people use and like Hebcal.

You can unsubscribe from the Apple calendar by going to the Calendars button, right clicking on Apple's Jewish holiday calendar, and clicking Delete.  Then you can subscribe to one of the Hebcal calendars by clicking on the calendar you want.

  • ICal-all events deleted and won't let me add new HELP!!

    Hi there,
    Recently I started my iCal and all my entries were gone. Not only that, but it won't let me add new entries no matter what I do. As well, my to do list on the right is blank and the space on the left where my calendars were listed before is also blank. If I go into my computer I can find the files from iCal with the information but they aren't showing up in iCal itself.
    HELP!!
    Thanks

    klgreene595,
    Welcome to Apple Discussions.
    1. Can you associate this behavior with anything that you recently installed on your computer?
    2. Are you using MobileMe, or any other sync software?
    3. Do you have any backups such as Time Machine, or an iCal archive?
    4. What calendars do you have listed in your sources pane?
    5. Have you subscribed to any calendars?
    6. Do you have an iPad or iPhone?
    7. Where have you found the iCal files on your computer?
    8. Have you attempted to repair disk permissions?
    9. Try refreshing the iCal plist file. You will find the "com.apple.iCal.plist" file in your Macintosh HD/Users/yourusername/Library/Preferences Folder. Quit iCal, and drag the .plist file to your Desktop. Then log out/in or restart.

  • After syncing and updating my iphone my iCalendar on my computer lost most of my information. Including wiping out an entire calendar group.  When trying to readd the calendar group it won't let me add events to my calendar under that category.

    After syncing and updating my iphone my iCalendar on my computer lost most of my information. Including wiping out an entire calendar group.  When trying to readd the calendar group it won't let me add events to my calendar under that category. A message pops up that says: "You can't add events or to do items to a calendar group. Select an individual calendar in the calendar list, then create your events or to do items." Any help here would be greatly appreciated! I would like to either retrieve the old information or find a way to add the category back in to start over. Thanks in advance!

  • Just downloaded 10.7 and it won't let me add videos to iTunes.

    Just downloaded 10.7 and it won't let me add videos to iTunes. Previous version worked fine. I tried to "add file to library" nothing. I've tried to drag the file....nothing. Just a red circle with a line through it. Any suggestions?

    These sound like interrelated problems that are probably system errors/issues on your computer.   I see you are already pursuing them here  https://discussions.apple.com/message/16835461#16835461

  • Windows 8 itunes won't let me add anything to iphone

    windows 8 itunes won't let me add anything to iphone..apple community doesn't list the iphone as a product registered under my apple id, but the phone is listed on my authorized devices.  any ideas? and do i need to get it to show as a registered product?

    I have the same problem. I can't sync any apps or music on my iphone. I can't sync any music purchased through itunes on my ipod. I haven't even tried connecting my ipad for fear that it'll mess that up as well. I try to authorize my macbook but I get an error. The weird thing is that I am able to still play all of my purchased music through itunes so it seems that the authorization is at least somehow partially recognized.

  • My Game Center account won't let me add friends on this device. Can anyone help please?

    My Game Center account won't let me add friends on this device. Can anyone help please?

    What's more, it's absolutely ridiculous that there's no direct way of contacting Apple about this. In fact, as far as Game Center is concerned, there's no support network at all.
    It's either sheer idiocy or arrogance in action, here. Products go wrong - even yours, Apple.

  • ICal quits unexpectedly and won't let me view 2011

    iCal "quits unexpectedly" whenever I try to look at the year 2011. Whenever it reopens it reverts back to 2001 or 2004, and won't let me see anything. I use Lion (Just updated it whenever it came out), and have no software updates waiting for me. Originally it froze up, wouldn't let me delete one of my events, and then it quit. So I restarted my computer a few times, shut it down, and it's still doing the same thing. Except it's getting worse. At first it wouldn't let me see a certain week in December, then the month of December, and now all of 2011. It would be seriously helpful if I could access my class schedule and my assignment duedates before I have to actually go to class...

    DaniM.,
    You may want to try refreshing the iCal plist file.
    The com.apple.iCal.plist file is in your Macintosh HD/Users/yourusername/Library/Preferences Folder. To get to the Library folder use Finder>Go>Depress the "Option" Key and select LIbrary. Quit iCal, drag the .plist file to your Desktop.
    Also go to System Preferences...>Language & Text>Formats>Region: and set/re-set the apppropriate "Region:" Then log out/in or restart.

  • IMovie 08 won't let me add more to project

    I was working on my project and after adding some pictures and a few video clips, any time I try to add another clip/picture, it won't let me. I've just been clicking and dragging the pictures from my desktop and importing my videos from iTunes. It let's me select the video/picture, but when I go to drag it in the media box for the iMovie, it doesn't stay. Is there a limit on videos that maybe I reached?? Thanks so much! =]

    all the "untitled" additional calendars appeared the next time I opened iCal.

  • My iPhone 5s was just updated recently to 7.1.1. Now my calendar information got deleted and I can't add any events to my calendar. The   button in the top right corner should be orange but it's grey and it won't let me add events when I try to click onit

    I'm trying to add events to my calendar after they got deleted and it won't let me because the + is grey when it should be orange. Does anyone know what to do?

    You are on Windows 2000, you do not have a "Firefox" button, and should consider yourself to be fortunate in that you still have menus and don't have to do anything to get the menus back instead of the "Firefox" button. (The same applies to Windows XP users).
    Use the "File" menu to get to Import. You are not on Windows 7 or Vista, and don't have to put up with the nonsense added for Aero.
    If you want the "Firefox" button you can get it with View -> toolbars -> (uncheck) Menu Bar. The menu bar and the "Firefox" button were supposed to be mutually exclusive (which is impossible in some cases without being incompatible).
    Once you are using the "Firefox" button ...
    Use the "Alt" key to view the menu bar (temporarily) containing File, Edit, View, History, Bookmarks, Tools, and Help. On Windows 7 and Vista, the menu bar was hidden by default in Firefox 4 and above. These menu items are more or less available under the "Firefox" button which has the most used of the built-in Firefox menu items available in a different format.
    To get back to having menus again. "Firefox" button -> Options (second column) -> (check) Menu Bar
    You can make '''Firefox 7.0.1''' look like Firefox 3.6.*, see numbered '''items 1-10''' in the following topic [http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/firefox-problems.htm#fx4interface Fix Firefox 4.0 toolbar user interface, problems (Make Firefox 4.0 thru 8.0, look like 3.6)].

  • Firefox won't let me add known but unsecure site as an exception.

    Since reinitialising my Windows XP computer Firefox 11.0 refuses me access to a site that previously was acceptable. I use this site to book an online appointment at my health centre. I now get the message "this connection is untrusted" and am presented with just the "get me out of here" click box. There is no opportunity to add it as an exception.
    Internet Explorer (which I am loathe to use) tells me that the certificate has a valid name and date, but that I have chosen not to trust the company. How do I get out of this? I can find no way to mark this sirte as trustworthy.

    My main frustration (and hence concern) is that it is only since I was foolish enough to completely clean up my system that Windows XP &/or Firefox 11.0 won't let me access a site I have used successfully for years! I have taken a screen shot & you will see that I can only cancel the URL request. What has happened to the "I understand the risks" box?
    Where and how have I inadvertently told my system that I do not trust this organisation?

  • I have a new laptop but it won't let me add songs to my iPhone

  • IMovie won't let me add more music

    I'm 17 minutes into my project. Now I the music I place cuts off after 23 secs. I drag the entire song over my pics, but the music stops abruptly after 23 secs, I want it to play for 1:30 minutes. I can't extend using clip trimmer, the clip just reverts to the front of the song, even when I drag it to the very end, it just bounces back. When I try dragging the song in the project it just stops and won't budge.
    I'm also having problems placing pictures, after the 17 minute mark, it takes a long time for pictures to "sit" in the project library, and they get placed between pics where I don't want them...and won't let me drag them to the position where I want them. Is there a time limit for each project? Why are these issues coming up now, when I had no problem throughout the project?

    Drag the song to the frame of video where you want it to start, and drop it on that frame of video.
    Good tutorial here.

  • Out of no where, itunes won't let me add music to my ipod touch.

    I have itunes 10.4.1 and ipod is 4.2.1. Please help, this is so frustrating! It won't let me drag and drop and it won't work by right clicking either.

    I had a similar problem recently after an update. Midway through the update, I got a user error that said I had to wipe the device and restore to factory settings. After I did that, I restored from a recent back up. When I did that it would not allow me to add recently purchased music to playlists on the device. I could not figure out how to fix this anywhere. Finally, in iTunes  I clicked on my iTouch on the list on the right. Then in the big box on the left I clicked on summary. Then I scrolled to the bottom where "Options" was displayed. I clicked on "Manually manage music and videos" and then "apply". Suddenly, I could add music to my established playlists on my device! Hooray! Perhaps this happened to you and that box is unchecked? Good luck.
