Ical will not process meeting responses from Outlook. I send out meeting notices from Ical to nonOutlook and Outlook users. The nonOutlook users respond and I see that in my Ical Meeting. The Outlook users also respond but I do not see theirs

I send out meeting notices from Ical to nonOutlook and Outlook users. The nonOutlook users respond and I see the green check mark in my Ical Meeting. The Outlook users also respond but I see a gray "?" as if they didn't respond. Has anyone had this issue and if so, is there a fix? I'm currently running OS X 10.10.2 Thank you in advance for any help you can provide.

No get this: I received a reply from another Mac user using iCal 4.0.4 showing "event accepeted" in the subject. But my iCal 5.0 will NOT recognize his acceptance. What is going on?

Hi.. Welcome to the Palm forums. You should be fine, the contacts on the device should write to outlook and combine with what ever is in outlook.

Unable to access server files shares with Active Directory Users

Quick breakdown of my issue.
I have setup a Yosemite file server running the latest version of Yosemite and Server.
File sharing in Server.app is enabled and shares have been created
The server is bound to my company's Active Directory and you can directly login to the computer via AD credentials.
The big issue is this, unless the user has directly walked up to my server and logged into it at least once, they cannot authenticate to the file shares via their AD credentials.
For example: Administrator (me) I can login and access all file shares without issue.
Jane Smith (SMITH) who has actually walked up to my server and logged in via her AD credentials, can also access all file shares. (That she has access to)
John Doe (JDOE) who has not logged into the server in anyway, cannot authenticate to the server file shares at all (even though I have granted him permission) He just gets an "Access Denied" message.
I have gone into Directory Utility and changed the search order to give AD priority and this still doesn't resolve the problem.
We have unbound the server from AD and added in back again and still not able to resolve.
If you open Server.app and go to add someone from AD to a file share, it finds the AD user quickly and everything looks right. but still unable to authenticate to the server if they haven't directly logged into it before?
All of the documentation and google articles I have found say my server is setup correctly, any help would be greatly appreciate it!
Thanks in advance!

I figured this out. In Mountain Lion Server, it doesn't matter if you give the user rights to a shared file or folder, if the user doesn't have access the File Sharing service, they can't get it. I had to find the specific users in the Server app under the AD in the Users tab, and give them rights to the File Sharing service. I think you can do this for a whole AD group as well, but I haven't tried.

Ical meeting requests and outlook

Hi All,
I need your help. we have a mixed network of PC (XPP) and 30 newly deployed Mac's (OSX10.5).
iCal to iCal meeting requests are fine.
iCal to Entourage meeting requests are fine
iCal to Outlook meeting requests don't work.
As we are wanting to move Mac users away fro Entourage we are motivated to resolve this issue.
when an iCal meeting request is sent to an Outlook recipient, they receieve an email with 2 empty attachments, and a note that states that to accept this meeting, they must click on the link below; although, there is NO link for the user to click on.
Outlook and Entourage are working thru Exchange Server 2003. iCal is (presently) working off local installs. iCal Server is due for operation in a few weeks.
Any thoughts?
Thanks in advance.

There are several discussions regarding this same topic on the Apple forums and elsewhere. None of them have solved the problem. This seems to be an issue that has been around for a long time but never addressed by Apple or Microsoft. From some simple tests that I have done, it appears the the Microsoft Exchange Server is not interpreting the iCal event (.ics extension) properly. I have seen discussions saying that Apple is not formatting the event properly or is using a newer standard that MS Exchange does not support. I believe it is the later as I can make the event work properly without any software changes but I have to do some steps manually. Here is how I can make it work and why I believe something is wrong in MS Exchange:
- create event in iCal and add an Outlook user
- send the event/email (ignore this email on the PC as it does not work)
- open the just sent email and save the attached iCal event
- find the saved iCal event and add a letter to the extension such as ".icss"
- (Note: I don't know if there is a way to rename an attachment already in a message)
- attach this renamed event to a new message and send it to the Outlook user
- the Outlook user must open the message, save the attachment and rename it back to ".ics"
- double clicking / opening this renamed file now works perfectly in Outlook
Now, if I could only automate some of these steps on the Mac before I send the message would be very helpful. This is not a great solution but I use it for events that I want to sync between my home Mac and my office PC.
Because the renamed attachment (.icss) works through Exchange (by ignoring it), I am lead to believe that MS Exchange will interpret an ".ics" extension and mess up the handling of it for some reason. Microsoft is never one to follow standards very carefully or adopt them very quickly. Our company is using Exchange 2003 so maybe that is part of the problem as it is an older version.

Share ical calendar with outlook PC

hi - i'm wondering if i can share an iCal or iCloud calendar with someone who is on a PC and uses Outlook? thanks!

Hello brianfrommissoula,
Indeed, anyone using Outlook on Windows should be able to take advantage of the functionality provided by shared calendars.
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.
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.

2-way syncing of calendars with iCal/Outlook users

Has anyone found an inexpensive hosted calendar solution that allows iCal and Outlook users to share calendars? more specifically a solution where the shared calendar can be edited by either party?

Success! I think I have gotten to the bottom of this now. With the latest version of Jeffrey Friedl's Flickr plugin you can indeed populate both the sets and groups.
The link provided by Victoria to Jeffrey's blog allows you only to populate the "photostream" collection in the publish services of Lightroom.
However further down in the settings of the jf Flickr plugin there is a part entitled:
"Sync set/group membership for photos already part of this publish service".
It gives a warning about this being beta and undocumented, so to backup catalog before trying.
I did this and synced nearly 7000 photos in Flickr in a lot of sets that it automatically added and located the vast majority of them in my Lightroom library, which contains about 45,000 images. It all took maybe half an hour to run, so it was slow (even with a fast internet connection) but worked! I am a happy camper!
A bonus that I was not looking for but discovered is that this plugin will also sync with Flickr groups.
The version I used is http://regex.info/LightroomPlugins2/releases/flickr-20130324.298.zip
Thanks Victoria and Paige for all of your help

Share ical names with users

Dear Support,
I've searched between the downloadable section for hungarian names for ical, but I did not find. I've made a version of it and I would like to share with others. What is the channel to do it? How can I share my small and tiny developments with others?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Andras

This solution will work. Just make sure you turn OFF all other synching (contacts, bookmarks, preferences, keychains, etc.) Otherwise you and your friend will have merged contacts, keychains, etc. She will also have access to your MobileMe email as well.
Another way to do this is through Google. Set up Google Calendars (two gmail accounts). Then give access to each other via Google Calendar Settings.
Import your mobileme calendars into Google through the Google interface.
Once complete, download Calaboration from Google Code. http://code.google.com/p/calaboration/
Use Calaboration to set up your Google Calendars in iCal.
You will then be able to view each others calendars without sharing them with the world.
My wife and I have MobileMe accounts but have migrated to Google Calendar for the added security.

ICal sharing with multiple users on same computer

How can i set up iCal to share with multiple users on the same computer?

yes, BUT... you need a central repository for the master calendars, usually referred to a Calendar Server. If you are not using a Mac OS X Server on your private network, I think you can use web-based servers that use standard calendar protocol.

ICal Invites to Outlook Users 5 Hours Off

Hi,
Have found a few posts on this, with even fewer answers. When I send iCal event invites to attendees who are on Win XP Outlook v 2003 sp2, the event is off by 5 hours. My 9 am appointments show up as 4 in the morning.
Have tried resetting all time zone settings. Got some satisfaction setting time zone to floating (except now the invite is from 9 am - 9am). Have all Apple OS patches applied.
Will trashing prefs fix this?? AND If I trash my iCal prefs will I loose all my appointments???
I know this is likely a fight between Apple and slacker programmers at MS, but for the sake of the users, can't someone just make a fix??
Oh yea, suggestions to fix are greatly appreciated.
thanx,
jeff

Jeff,
Oddly enough, I de-selected the option in the iCal preferences to Turn on Time Zone Support, and I was able to view events obtained from Outlook users in the correct timeframe. Not sure why this was the case, but any event sent to me as a calendar event from Outlook would always show up as GMT time zone, which is not where I'm located.
This doesn't completely answer your question, as you were sending events out to Outlook users, but it might be worth trying?

Share icloud calendar with google calendar users

I know that this has been asked before, but I can find no official response from apple to the question of how to share my icloud calendar with google calendar users (or frankly, anyone not using icloud)
Can anyone point me to an official response to this surprising intransigence?
cheers
Ben

It is a 2 way sync, enter the event on the iCloud calendar (in Google) and it will be there when you view the calendar in iCal, or Google or at the iCloud website.
Do you know how to publish to Google in BusyCal?

Outlook Users Can't Accept iCal event invites

Microsoft Outlook users can't accept my event invites from iCal.
I already searched through all the possible prefs and settings... at least I think I have.
Can anyone help?
THX!
A.Che

To clarify this issue - (as I am having a similar issue)...
From iCal I can easily accept and respond to meeting requests sent to me from a person using Outlook 2003
The problem is the other way round - My meeting requests from iCal do not seem to be accepted by Outlook. I am generating an email that has a *.ics file extension and it is being sent via mail, but when the recipient (using Outlook 2003) receives the email, it is formatted as plain text and does not have a file attachment.
When that person forwards the message back to me, it DOES have the attachment still attached (which I can open on my own PC).
What is the trick to sending an iCal meeting request to an Outlook user so that they can add it to their calendar (and respond to the request)?? Apparently they receive a plain text email with an attachment that is named "Untitled Attachment" which is then empty (~200 bytes)
Here is a picture of what I am talking about (that they receive in Outlook):

HT202213 I have 3 users on one computer with 3 unique user accounts. Each have unique ITunes accounts. How do we share our music libraries using home sharing?

I have 3 users on one computer with 3 unique user accounts. Each of us have separate and unique ITunes accounts. How do we share our music libraries using Home Sharing? Everything that I can find talks about sharing between networked computers, but this is all on the same computer. I just want to share between ITunes accounts. Thanks!

Hi b noir, I also have two users on one pc with two different iTunes libraries. But I also want to put them onto an external hard drive so that I can free up some memory on the pc. So I figure I need to consolidate the two users iTunes libraries first before moving to hard drive? But not quite sure how to do that on the iTunes 11? Thanking you in advance!!
