Ical sharing issue

I have an icloud account that i share calenders with my work collegues just fine, i wanted to share just my home calender with my wife, but there is where the issue starts. My home calender on my Imac is shared via a me.com icloud account. When i type my wifes me.com email address to share it does nothing, in so far as it sends her no invitation direct to her icloud calender or her email address via the share link. If however i send it to her itunes based address i.e a yahoo.co.uk address it goes through as a link on the email and via a browser she can see the shared calender, also after doing this its visable on her iphone 4S, however no matter how i change her settings its just does not come on to her mac. Both the iphone and macpro icloud is logged in under the me.com account not the itunes account so why would this be?
Its really making me scratch my head.
Just for info...both my ical and hers are running mountain lion and both iphones are updated to the latest iOS.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Have you checked her mail rules and filtering, the email may be going to a junk folder or even being deleted.

ICal Shared Calendars

Is there is a way to password protect iCal shared calendars?

A quick update: with the December 31, 2007 release of BusySync version 1.5, users can now additionally synchronize iCal calendars outside of their existing subnet using procedures which are outlined here.
In addition, Mark/Space has announced that a Mac OS X 10.5 and later update will he forthcoming for SyncTogether, and a public beta of the updated application will be available here on or before January 31, 2008.

Crystal Report Application Sharing Issue

We are receiving the following error message when trying to open up Crystal Reports from within our application.
Unable to load Crystal Report user function dll:
e:\Program Files\Centricity Practice Solution 90\Client\mlcrwlib2.dll.
The report may not run correctly.
Here is an explanation of our current environment:
We are utilizing Crystal Reports XI R2 SP6 using the ActiveX Designer control, craxddrt.dll, to open up Crystal Reports within a Visual Basic project. I did not see a VB forum so I'm posting here in .NET.
We are including the 4 Crystal Merge Modules in our InstallShield Project when installing our application so we feel we are installing correctly, but there appears to be a Crystal Reports sharing issue with another application. When we attempt to open up our Crystal Reports from within the application, we get the error message above. If we click OK to the error message our report opens. I would like to eliminate the error message, but I'm not sure why we are even calling the file in the error above.
I'm assuming that the other application has created a user function or something that is registered within Crystal Reports, but we do not have access to or cannot load it. We have not been able to reach anyone from the other software application company to ask questions so I'm hoping that someone can point me in the right direction as to what is going on here.
I have verified that the Business Objects folder was created with the run-time files needed to run Crystal Reports. I also see a previous version of Crystal Reports run-time files on this server since a Crystal Report folder exists. I have utilized Process Monitor to see that the correct craxddrt.dll is being opened, but I cannot figure out how the file in the error message above is being called.
Any help on this issue would be greatly appreciated.

Hello Marlon,
I worked on a Centricity (GE Medical) issue with the Report Designer Component (RDC) a number of months ago. As part of my troubleshooting I discovered that their application uses an atypical deployment of the Crystal runtime files for their Centricity application. The "short" version is that the way they implemented the RDC would not have been supported by SAP Support.
I was never able to resolve the Centricity issue, but proved that their implementation of the RDC was the root cause of the issue. The mlcrwlib2.dll is a Centricity DLL that seems to control how/where the craxdrt.dll / craxddrt.dll file is loaded (location A in one work stream in their application, location B in another work stream in their application).
One of the side effects of this DLL is that it "took over" how the craxdrt.dll would load for any other application that also used the RDC (craxdrt.dll / craxddrt.dll). I proved the issue by sending them a simple sample application that was written in CPP. Using CPP allowed us to eliminate the need to reference any other dependencies besides the Crystal runtime files. This sample application consistently failed with a reference to their mlcrwlib2.dll - which I knew wasn't referenced in my CPP sample. At the time Centricity wasn't able to explain why their mlcrwlib2.dll was being picked up by my sample. I expect that their issue would be resolved once they discovered why mlcrwlib2.dll loaded erroneously, but they were still working on the answer to that question.
Because we couldn't determine how and why the mlcrwlib2.dll was behaving as it did I'd suggest not trying to use a "side by side" installation of another RDC application. I know it's not much of an answer, but it might help explain why all the regular troubleshooting steps aren't working for you.
Sincerely,
Dan Kelleher

Apple TV Home Sharing Issue (SOLVED for me)

I had been having problems with Home Sharing while other functions (Netflix etc) worked fine. My setup is wireless using Time Capsule. My network was "open" (password not needed). I had tried everything from recycling my DSL modem and Time Capsule and turning Home Sharing off and on (on my computer and the Apple TV) without success.
My Time Capsule has the ability to connect at 5GHz or 2.4GHz. Additionally, my networks may or may not be password protected. I finally changed to a network that required a password and my Home Shareing issue ended. Since that network change everything works fine.

I was going crazy trying to play music from my Itunes library and watch slideshows of my photos as, once started, the application would quit within a minute of starting. I called Apple Support and tried everything they sughgested - restart, restore etc. Finally, I turned my router off and let it reset. When I turned it back on. everything worked. I could have saved a lot of aggravation had I been instructed to do so originally.

Potential Solution: Home Sharing issues with iTunes 10.6

TL;DR: On a hunch, I changed the power settings of the ATV to never sleep. Since then, I have not had any issues. Granted, it's only been a couple of days, but it seems to have done the trick.
Folks,
Wanted to share my experience with Home Sharing issues after upgrading to iTunes 10.6. These forums a rampant with reports of the issue, so I'll defer to the search field above if you don't know what I am talking about. In short: iTunes 10.6 seems to have busted Home Sharing.
For those who do, here's what I found:
For some reason, is saw a very large number of established sessions from my Apple TV (ATV) into port 3689 on my Mac. This is the port that ATV uses to query iTunes to see what's available via Home Sharing (e.g.: what movies, songs, pictures, etc are available for display on the ATV).
A sniffer cap and some observation of the power indicator on the ATV indicated that while it was sleeping, the ATV was querying iTunes. It would power on for a sec (wake on LAN, maybe?), issue some queries, then sleep.
When this happened, the TCP sessions created were never town down. As such, I would eventually see 200+ established sessions on port 3689. I don't know exactly how many it took to make this happen, but when I saw this, iTunes stopped accepting new connections.
Of course, bouncing iTunes would remedy the issue for a while, but it would return.
On a hunch, I changed the power settings of the ATV to never sleep. Since then, I have not had any issues. Granted, it's only been a couple of days, but it seems to have done the trick.
I would be interested to hear if it works for others.
Happy viewing,
Chris

Thanks for posting this.
I've been searching for an option of how to approach this problem.
I picked up the new AppleTV when it was released, but it has made iTunes fairly useless from a Home Sharing standpoint.
I also observed the massive number of TCP connections being opened against iTunes, but never closed.
As expected, I could manually kill a few of these connections, and then could connect again, even without closing iTunes.
I performed most of my testing with Windows 7, but while troubleshooting I had the same issue with iTunes on an old Mac Mini I had sitting around.
I will try your solution, which makes a lot of sense, but it would be nice if Apple fixed the real problem.
Thanks again.

Outlook sharing issues

I have 2 users with Outlook 2013. One is trying to send a shared task to the other. Other people in the department are able to view it with no issue. When the user receives the invite it says: "This sharing message is not valid. All action buttons have
been disabled." Then below: (Sender not verified) Microsoft exchange tasks. I've been googling the error for a way to resolve this and I can't seem to find a compatible answer. This also happened with 2 other users involving sharing a calendar, they were
finally able to share but only through another user's computer. I'm sure there must be a setting somewhere that needs to be changed, but I don't know where.

Hi,
According to your description, I understand that there is a Task sharing issue between two specific users. But the task can be shared in another user’s computer.
If so, the issue should be related to the Outlook profile in the problematic user’s computer. Please create a new Outlook profile to check whether the issue persists:

If it doesn’t work, restart Outlook in safe mode (Start > Run >type “Outlook /safe”> Enter) to have a try.

ICal Shared Not Appearing on iOS Devices But Do In Macs' iCals

I am running Mountain Lion, but this issue was also happening in Lion. As a former Apple Specialist who specialized in iCloud, I've stumped myself and several AppleCare reps. They have forwarded this on to the engineers.
I have three calendars that I share from iCal to my family's iOS devices and Macs. The calendars are updating fine on all Macs, but are not updating on any iOS devices. They used to update slower, but it's gone to nothing.
I've tried everything under the sun including:
1. Turning iCloud on and off on each device AND on my Mac.
2. Restoring the iPhones as new phones
3. Exporting the calendar, importing it as a new calender and sharing it. Still doesn't update after the initial setup.
4. Quitting the Calendar on the iOS device and reopening it and restarting the iPhone.
Is anyone else experiencing this problem? I've totally stumped Apple. And remember Steve said, "It just works." It's not.

Colleen,
Considering your expertise, and all the resources you have accessed, I am hesitant to offer suggestions.

Is ical "sharing" always read-only?

I assist an MIT professor who uses the ical software, and I use Windows XP. I need the ability to edit his calendar by "suggesting" a meeting that he can either accept or reject and that is clearly "from" me. Is this possible? If it is, how does the software deal with issues of synchronizing--i.e., if I suggest a mtng on a calendar that hasn't yet been synced up with his Palm that day, will his calendar automatically catch new conflicts when it is synced?
I read the thread posted about users sharing a synced calendar, and it doesn't sound promising. Any new ideas much appreciated.
Thanks,
Isadora

The answer to your basic question is that an iCal that is published by its originator is always read only to those viewing it - either on the web or as a subscription in iCal.
If you use Outlook, you could try making your suggestions in the form of meeting requests (perhaps in a dedicated calendar on your 'side'?)
There's an explanation about what happens at the iCal end here: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=iCal/2.0/en/wr41.html
I can't be much more precise because I don't have the Windows equipment to verify how well this works.

ICal sharing bug?

Hello everyone,
Here is my problem with iCal: One of my calendars is shared with a friend and also made public calendar. My friend mistakenly made some change on my calendar and I had to revert it. Anyway, it was only then that I found out the sharing control setting of iCal is not functioning as it should. I tried turning off his edit ability and also removed the check on Public Calendar but somehow it doesn't work, a few seconds after I did so everything was still the same, the calendar is still public calendar and my friend still have view & edit rights (I switched his right to View only but no use).
Does anyone have the same problem?
Btw, my system is iMac late 2012 with Mountain Lion 10.8.3; I have an iPhone 5 and an iPad 3 both of which using the same iCal.
Thank you.

I was having the same issue and came across this post...
Basically all you have to do is log into iCloud.com and go to calendars, then change it to "view only"
IT WORKS!

I am having major Home Sharing issues (disrupting WiFi)

Have done a lot of research on the particular issues Im having and can only find discussions on problems slightly tangential to mine.
Beginning about a week ago whenever I would use home sharing on my iPad or iPhone (streaming through my Mac Pro desktop an an Airport Extreme) the file I would be playing would pause erratically and then start up again. It would get really bad if I listened to one of the larger files (I download radio show podcasts) and try to jump to the middle of the program - every time the file would just pause and not play and then jump to the next file on the playlist and just hang.
Furthermore, it totally screws up my WiFi....I would have to reset my extreme to get the signal to stop behaving erratically. I read through tons of posts and tried earlier versions of airport software, resetting my wifi settings, reste my router etc...but all to no avail.
Im a little surprised that Im the only one having this issue since it seems so basic....I turn on home sharing, start using it and bam -- all these wifi issues just start happening.
Anyone able to point me in the right direction for a solution? Because it is driving me crazy....

you could be suffering from wireless interference.
perhaps one of your neighbor's wireless networks is interfering with yours. download iStumbler and note the channels other networks in the vicinity are broadcasting on.
change the channel your network is using as far away as possible from those.

Partial home sharing issue between 3 devices...

i have an old mac computer, an iPad and new macbook pro. I activated home sharing but only the music from my old computer is on the new one, so everything i bought on my iPad recently is not shared. How can I update a central library and access my ipad and old computer music so I can share all on each device?

Hi luneymoo,
If you are having issues setting up Home Sharing across all devices, you may find the following article helpful:

In particular, you may want to verify that all of the content was purchased under the same Apple ID:

ITunes 7 - 2 user accounts 1 music folder sharing issues

I just downloaded iTunes 7 this afternoon. I imported some music from my CDs into my account. My wife and I have a shared music folder. I then logged onto my wifes account and added the music to her library. Her accound moved the music files from the original folder to an Unknown Artist folder losing the file information. Does anyone know why this is happening?
I apologize if this is topic has already been posted.

If you have a folder on the hard drive called anything you want (Shared Files for example) and leave it in the root directory, anyone should be able to access it. If one of the user accounts doesn't have administrator access, writing to that folder may be an issue.
To fix this, control-click (right click) and select get info. Go to the permissions tab. Use the little arrow next to 'Details' to make sure it shows the details. Select the group 'everyone' and allow them to 'Read and Write'. Click on the checkbox 'Apply to enclosed items'. You'll need to do it from an administrator account.
Should sort you out.

Home Sharing issues with Windows PCs

I've had an Apple TV2 for over a year. It has been working fine with no issues at all. I use an old laptop running WinXP as my "media server" and it has worked fine up until the last few of months.
Progressively, over the last 2-4 months it has become less reliable when trying to access content on iTunes on it. The laptop itself has otherwise been reliable. It is just the Apple TV talking to it that has been not. Sometimes it works fine, other times as I go through the menus I get 'Loading "library"...' for up to a couple of minutes and it then drops out.
The first time it started becoming unreliable was shortly after a Windows Update. I rolled back the update with System Restore and it went back to working well. I didn't have another problem until I applied the latest set of Windows Updates (a month or so later, hoping the issues had been fixed). Again, it broke, so I rolled back. Last week after it has been running well, Windows crashed and when it recovered AppleTV/iTunes wasn't working again. I tried applying Windows Updates again. No luck. I rolled back to before the crash. No luck. I tried updating to iTunes 10.6. No luck. I uninstalled iTunes (and all the other Apple software) and reinstalled. It was still flakey. Disabling the firewall makes no difference.
I then blew the whole machine away, restored to factory configuration, and installed iTunes again. It is still unreliable.
I have MacBook Pro running OS X 10.6.8 and iTunes 10.6. It works with the Apple TV with no problems at all. All my content plays fine. So I don't believe it is my Apple TV or the network. (All three devices, Apple TV, MBP and Windows laptop are on a wired Ethernet network 100Mbps.)
I just installed iTunes on my Acer Netbook which is running Windows 7 Starter and it has the same unreliability issues as the laptop.
These seems to suggest it is an iTunes/Windows problem – but why am I the only one?
I should add that I can play some content on the Apple TV from either the laptop or the netbook. It might work the first time, even the second time but eventually it just fails. For example, last night we started to watch something on the Apple TV from the library on the WinXP laptop. It played fine for the first 4 minutes and then it just dropped out.
It doesn't matter what content I try. Sometime music works, sometimes it doesn't. Sometimes iTunes purchased TV shows or movies work, sometimes they don't. Sometimes home made content (FCP X) works, sometimes it doesn't.
Additionally, the laptop and netbook show up in the SHARED area of iTunes on the MBP. I see similar results form there. I can sometimes connect to the laptop or netbook and play content but eventually it fails and the device disappears from SHARED. It eventually comes back, though.
Interestingly, iTunes on the laptop and the netbook don't show any other SHARED devices, even though I have "Share Libraries" ticked in preferences on all three. I also don't see the Apple TV sharing icon on iTunes on the laptop or netbook but I do see it on the MBP (and my iPod and iPad).
I also have a Windows 7 64-bit laptop and I installed 64-bit iTunes 10.6 on it, but I can't even log into the iTunes store form it (unknown error 0x80092013) which appears to be a common problem of late.
I have tried everything I can think of to get it working and am hoping someone might have some ideas on how to debug the issues.

Solved - at least all good so far.
I had to add rules to my firewall software (Symantec Endpoint Protection) for Bonjour (UDP 5353) and DAAP (TCP 3689). Once I did that, the other librares were shown in SHARING and the Apple TV reliably connects.
What I don't understand was why it worked at all without the rules in place.

Family Sharing Issue: Problem with child account not having access to parents purchases.

I created a family sharing network consisting of my me, my wife, and my 16 y/o son. I can see/download my wife's purchases and she can see/download my purchases. I can also see/download my sons purchases. My son can see my purchases, but when he attempts to download them he gets the error message "Unable to Download: To download shared content, your Family must have a valid payment method."
There is a valid payment method and the account and it was verified when sitting up my son's account for family sharing. I'd note that my son is the only one in the family that doesn't have a payment method associated with his personal account. However, I don't think that's anrequirement to set up family sharing.
Hopefully, this issue will be addressed quickly.
