ICal / Exchange / iOS-Cal sync creates multiple events and multiple problem

Hi,
I got an iPod Touch for Xmas, so I've rejigged all my iCal calendars to sync via the Enterprise Exchange server at my works. I have three calendars, one for my work appointments, one for my personal appointments and one for other appointments and events.
I expected to get some weirdness from previous iCal experience, but I've found an odd set of behaviours.
Some all-day events become midnight to midnight events on the iPod only.
Some events became duplicated.
Many of these duplicated events do not appear on the iPod, only in Exchange and iCal on OSX.
If I change an event on iOS4 Cal.app, say the free/busy information or a deletion, the event changes as expected on Exchange (as seen via Outlook Web Access etc).
If I change an event on iCal on OSX, the event duplicates itself on Exchange, but not on the iPod.
If I delete a duplicate event (in any exchange synced calendar) on iCal on OSX, the event reappears a few minutes later or on refreshing. If I delete a duplicate event Cal.app on iOS, it stays deleted.
Has anyone else experienced this kind of thing? I've seen some notes about duplications via MobileMe, but I don't have that feature. Is there a different method of referring to Exchange events used in iCal on OSX and Cal.app on iOS?
Also, when I moved my third calendar to Exchange, it made all the events "Show as Busy". Does anyone know a way of programmatically (e.g. Applescript) setting all those to "Free"? I can't seem to find an event property that matches the value given in "Show As..." when you view the event.

Jeeze, I'm try to sort this out as well. Some iCal Events (but not all), are duplicating within iCal on the MAC. The Mobileme Calendar and the iPhone Calendar seem okay (no Dups).
Could this be a simple matter of turning off (unchecking), the calendar boxes for the Calendars "ON MY MAC" and also minimizing that Directory Tree and leaving on and expanded the [email protected] Directory Tree with Calendar Boxes checked ?
Done that way, MobileMe and the iPhone are being updated.
Having said that, the obvious conclusion is that any New Event entered into a Calendar within the "ON MY MAC" directory tree is not going to be synced with MobileMe nor the iPhone and is a waste of time.
Furthermore, Any New Event entered into a calendar on the iPhone will be synced with its coressponding Calendar in MOBILME, and it's Directory tree in iCal on the MAC - But Not the "ON MY MAC" Directory tree - That never gets synced. Am I right or am I going crazy.

  • Planning for  product using multiple bom and multiple recipe involving SOP

    Hi friends,
    The problem. Currently we have maintained single BOM and single recipe (The BOM and Recipe used for MRP) for long term planning run. The FMCG sector of Client requested to have multiple BOMs and multiple recipes in the long term planning run. I.e. The planning is done quarterly and they wanted to use different BOMs and Different recipes for each quarter. But since the existing system has configured to use a single BOM and a single recipe we have a problem to use the long term planning run with the current setups.The problem we have is in this ‘001’ planning scenario.
    appreciate if you can help me how to accommodate multiple BOMs and recepis in the long term planning run.
    thanks and regards

  • Partial-credit scoring in multiple response and multiple hot-spot questions

    Hello everyone,
    I'm calling on your generosity in the spirit of the holidays to help out a noob.  I would like to create matching, multiple-response and multiple-hot spot questions where the user receives credit based on the number of correct answers within the question. For example, in a matching question where there are four items; if the user gets 2 out of the four items matched correctly, I would like for him to receive 2 out of 4 points.
    I understand that Captivate doesn't support partial-credit scoring of this type, but a few posts have implied that it can be done with variables. Is there anyone who can walk me through this process, or send me to a link that will walk me through it? (I've scoured these forums and tried the Cp tutorials, to no avail.) And if it's not asking too much, please make it understandable to someone who has very little experience with variables.
    Thanks, and Merry Christmas.

    Hello,
    I did publish an article more specific on partial scoring, perhaps this could help you:
    Partial scores and customized feedback
    And since you are asking for more basic information, on my blog I point to some other articles to explain the meaning of variables with/without advanced actions. Feel free to have a look (there are more postings about advanced actions and links to articles over there):

  • Multiple sizes and multiple quantities of an item

    How do I create a shirt order form where someone can order multiple sizes and multiple quantities of an item?

    Hi,
    There’re some order templates, Shirt(Clothing) Order Form,  that might be meet your request. Or you can design a custom form according your requirement if you’re a form author or coauthor. For your case, when you design the form, you can choose the multiple choices, single choice, or other fields, etc.  And you have to enable the payment under options tab, and assign fields as a purchase fields. At the same time, you can share the web form to the form filler to make an order.
    Thanks,

  • Posting an Idoc with Multiple Headers and Multiple Lines

    Hi all,
    I have a scenario like this fileXIIdoc
    Invoice file comes in text file with multiple header and multiple lines like this
    111               aaa     13214234    US   (header)
    09082010     ABC    9999            A     (Line)
    222               ccc     43454543    US   (header)
    09082010     XYZ    7777            B     (Line)
    09082010     PQR    8888            C     (Line)
    I need to post single Idoc with all the headers and lines
    we are planning to use Custom Idoc,Is this possible by having the header segment as unbounded??
    Regards
    Edited by: Vamsi Krishna on Sep 8, 2010 8:05 PM

    hi,
    lets go again.
    you have to edit the custom IDoc and change the ocurrance on the header segment. also modify the details segment adding an addtional field that identify which header that this detail belong.
    for this case you cannot change the occurrance in SAP PI because you wont identify what i have told you before.  in PI apply to change the occurrance if you could send ONE Idoc Per Header.
    now is better clear???
    Let us know.
    Thanks

  • Recommended configuration for load balanced Portal with load balancer, multiple gateways and multiple servers.

    Does anyone have a recommended network, hardware and software configuration guide for a Portal installation running with multiple gateways load balanced (ie one URL) that talk to multiple servers?

    David,
    We've used Resonate (software) to load balance the gateways. It allows
    you to group all the gateways under 1 virtual URL and load balance the
    incoming connections over each gateway depending on the rules that you
    define in Resonate. Look in the SUN portal whitepapers there is one that
    talks about it specifically.
    As far as load balancing the calls to the portals, the gateways will
    automatically load balance across all the portals that they know about
    using a simple round-robin rotation. You may be able to use Resonate in
    front of the portals but you may need to activate persistance within
    Resonate to ensure that the user always ends up on the portal that he
    established his initial connection on (if you want that), check with Sun
    on this one.

    Really. Seriously. Now if you had some industry standard phrases you were comparing, there might be a useful discussion. But those are just words strung together. If that's a homework question, I recommend you find a different teacher.

  • Oracle HR restrictions based on multiple assignments and multiple GRE's.

    In oracle HR, with multiple assignments and multiple GRE. How can we restrict to having 1 assignment per GRE. I do not want more than 1 assignments per GRE. Has anyone done this before?

    Hi,
    If the requirement is to prevent the creation of multiple assignments, you can achieve that by personalizing the assignment form.

    Hi,
    If you need multiple dimensions, then the first thing is to specify EVDRE("mXn")
    where m = number of dimensions in column
    n = number of dimensions in the row.
    If the EVDRE has already been built and you wnat to change it, then you need to change the rowkeyrange and colkeyrange. And accordingly, you should have 4 expansions - 2 for rows and 2 for columns.
    Hope it helps.

  • Why Doesn't Mac iCal Match iOS Cal Alert Options?

    I have read all the issues with the wacky integration between iCal and iOS Cal integration.   My question regards the options to set for alert on an event.  I like the default options on the iPhone on 15 minutes, 1 hour, 2 hours, 1 day, 2 days.   How can I get iCal to offer this same options when creating a new event on Mac OS X?

    I am completely disgusted w/ Apple at this point!!!  I've had my iPhone 5 for about a year now and I've NEVER been able to sync it w/ my pc (yes.......I've tried ALL the suggested fixes for my version of Windows, before anyone else starts regurgitating all the crap I've read thru a dozen times to no avail).  Basically.....if you want to really address your problem by 'reinstalling' itunes; you'd better have your schedule for the ENTIRE NIGHT clear because you'll be waiting for itunes to download for a good 5 hours.  (occasionally you'll read some knuckle head's feedback, who is probably an Apple employee, saying that it "only takes 5 minutes".  I'd highly suggest not even paying attention to these morons!!
    Yes I realize that I haven't contributed anything productive to this thread.....yes I realize it will irritate some people.....however they'll need to deal with it because at this point, I'm simply using this thread to 'vent' my frusteration w/ Apple.  Horrible update!!  Horrible support!!  Horrible suggested fixes and even worse acknowledgment of your customer base's problems w/ your product!!!  I'm seriously contemplating selling my iphone and going android again.  Samsung's looking pretty good right about now!!

    Hi AHP
    Thanks for the reply.. we are not using the process chains instead we are using the infopackage groups. I created the event in SM62, But how should i assign this new event to my delta load.
    In full upload infopackage, in selection option i can give the event there in "after event"
    But my doubt is how to assign my event to the delta infopack
    "<i>you can just put the full load process type variant after the delta load, any consideration ?"</i>. Can you be more specific.

  • Can you use wifi sync with multiple libraries and multiple devices

    Hi all
    Does anyone know if you can use wifi sync with 1 computer, 2 libraries and 2 devices?
    I have my wife's iPhone synced to 1 library and mine to another library but on the same computer. Will wifi sync work this way or do you need iTunes to be open to the correct library for it to work? As I know you can't have 2 instances of itunes open on the same computer.
    Anyway thanks for any help

    I have been looking more and more into this and it appears no.
    You need to have iTunes running on the computer to enable it to wifi sync. You can use 2 devices on 1 library but if you don't have all the right options ticked you will then end up with each others stuff on each others device.
    To enable wifi sync you need to have your iDevice connected to the same wifi network as your computer and iTunes open on that computer.
    With my library open it detected my wife's phone and started to sync. Hasty push of cancel sync button lol.
    There is a guide on here somewhere about multiple devices with 1 library which I can't find at the moment that tells you which options to tick so only your stuff stays on your device the the other half's on their device.
    Its basically tick 'sync only ticked songs and videos' under summary of your device
    Under apps take tick out of 'automatically sync new apps'
    Then under edit->preferences click device and click prevent i's from syncing automatically
    I think you should then be able to sync both devices to 1 library with mucking them up too much
    Hopefully please correct me if I'm wrong
    I have tried not doing the last step and asking it to open itunes automatically when phone is connected but this does not work with wifi sync
    Have fun hopefully someone else can give us a better answer

  • Multiple calendars and multiple email accounts?

    How can I associate iCal calendars to Apple Mail accounts?
    Let's say I have two email accounts configured in Apple Mail ("home" and "work") and I have two calendars with the sames names. When I add an event to iCal, I want to use the matching email account for sending invitations, depending on which calendar I've selected. Is this possible? Otherwise my private email address might get used for invitations to work events and vice versa.

    Wow, does anyone know how to do this? I really need to have multiple calendars that reference multiple email accounts in iCal... Is there a trick on how to do this? Or, is there a better place to post so Apple puts this feature in the next software release?
