ICal syncs at the second attempt!

Hello everyone. I updated my iPhone 4 to OS5. After this, I have a strange problem with iCal.
When I add an event on my iPhone, it appears on my MobileMe server, but NOT on the iCal calendars on my old G5 (OSX 10.5.8) and not on my MacBook Pro (OSX 10.6.8). But, and this is what is strange, if I EDIT the event on the iPhone, it appears soon on both the computers.
Quite the same in reverse: if I add a new event on one of the computers, it appears on the MobileMe server AND in the other computer, but NOT in the iPhone. As soon as I edit it from the computer, it comes on the iPhone, too.
I already did reboot on the iPhone, but it is always the same.
Any suggestion? Isn't it very strange?
Many thanks, Lorenzo.

I just updated iPhone to OS 5.0.1 and the problem is solved!
Bye.

When I sync my iPhone to my Mac computer the items that I have put in my phone iCal sync to the computer, but the items that I have entered on my computer iCal do not sync to my phone. How do I fix this?

Auto redial fails on the second attempt

the new feature on the version 7.2.60.103 automatically redial the contact if the first attempt wasn't successful. however the second attempt made automatically will result in the call being dropped.

Hey Carolyn,
Thank you for your reply. I tried resetting the SMC but I still have the same issue.
It doesn't really matter if I put it to sleep from the Apple Menu or if I close the Lid. It always works the first time, but never the second time. What happens is that it stops responding directly after "getting" the sleep signal (either by closing the lid, then the whole screen is black and won't respond, or by choosing sleep from the apple menu, then the screen is not black but nothing responds). In both cases, nothing works, and I have to force the macbook to shut down (by holding the power button).
Amazing thing, the fan gradually goes to max speed when this issue occurs (always).
I never installed or used any new applications except one single update which required the system to restart (Safari 4).
Cheers!

I get lots of missed calls on my iPhone 5. Caller's first attempt goes straight to my voicemail but the second attempt gets through. I have proved this with my home landline too. Any ideas?

First thing you need to check is if you have do not disturb on to find this out got to settings-do not disturb and tap on it and turn it off this should work

Webpage opens only on the second attempt

Hello,
I am on MacBook Air OS X 10.9.3. There is a strange and annyoing behaviour with Safari opening www.spiegel.de - a popular german news site - and only this site. It always needs a second attempt to open this address in Safari Browser.
On my MacBook Air it is reproducable:
1.) Starting Safari (Version 7.0.3)
2.) Opening a new window with "Command-N" and enter www.spiegel.de:
3.) After pressing return key - nothing happens - site will not load and window looks like has been re-opened freshly:
4.) Entering www.spiegel.de a second time and pressing return key, now the page will be loaded:
There are no extensions activated in Safari and Ggogle is set as search engine in the address line.
Can someone help to solve this problem?
Thanks,
Markus

Hello, I don't understand why the steps in the following make the problem disappear but finally it worked:
In Safari: Switching “Do not preload Top Hit in the background” on. (in Safari: "Safari->Preferences .../Smart Search Field/:")
In Safari: Exporting all bookmarks (in Safari: "File->Export Bookmarks …”)
In Safari: Deleting all bookmarks, Top Sites, Cache and Cookies ("Safari->Reset Safari ...)
In Terminal:
cd ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari
rm Cache.*
rm fsCachedData/*
rm ./Webpage\ Previews/*
rm com.apple.Safari.SafeBrowsing/*
Quit Safari and starting Safari.
(For testing: entering "www.spiegel.de" in the address line: no "Top Hits" are displayed anymore and the page is loading without second attempt. Success!)
In Safari: Importing the bookmarks again and removing the the particular bookmark that was displayed formerly in "Top Hits". -> Test 6. is still successful.
Would be interesting to know more about the Safari "Top Hits" feature. Yes, i know it helps preloading pages - but what sense does this make to preload pages (cookies and data) whenver i enter a simple prefix "w" "ww" "www" ... in the address line ?!?
Especially like in my case "Top Hits" feature and the algorithm in the background does the job so bad that it determines allways pages as proposals for "Top Hits" that i did not use for a long long time and there were much better matches in my bookmarks with prefix "www".
Maybe someone knows more about the obscure "Top Hits" feature?

Firefox 8.0 usually links to an incorrect site from Google search on the first attempt, then gets it correct on the second attempt. What's happening here? Didn't occur with previous versions of Firefox (through 3.6.x).

I can provide specific instances if needed. This seems to happen almost every time. The incorrect sites do not appear to be of any specific type.
I'm also curious why the production version of Firefox jumped from 3.6.x to 8.0. Maybe I've installed a still-buggy beta version, but not on purpose.

cor-el,
Several additional observations which may be relevant:
1. The finger of suspicion seemed to point at Firefox 8 because IE7.0 didn't display the same symptom of redirecting Google search to the incorrect website. IE7.0 appeared to continue functioning normally.
2. When I ran a full scan using Symantec 10.1.6.6010 yesterday evening it found about 30 infections. Among them was the immediate cause of my annoyance, an infection that presented as "XP Home Security 2012". May have been Trojan.Gen.2 which showed up in multiple copies. Symantec also found the Windows firewall turned off, which may have been my error but I'm pretty careful about keeping tools like that, active. It's on now. However the problem with Firefox 8 remained. I can supply the Symantec scan results if that would be helpful.
3. Then I ran MalwareBytes Anti-Malware. It found about 5 infections and cured them. That fixed whatever was causing the problem with Firefox 8. I can supply the MalwareBytes log if that would be helpful.
4. A scan this morning with Kaspersky's TDSSKiller didn't find anything.

Above is the first error you posted on this file.
1. Open the file "C:\ACMEBicycle.java" then go to line 14, and start looking at the code directly above it.
2. Verify that each statement above it ends with the semi-colon. You may have to go all the way up to the top, but my guess is it will be within 2-3 lines above line 14.
Post a few lines of code that come right above line 14 - but NOT your whole source file, please.

Workspace page doesn't render on the first attempt, but on the second

We have a clustered environment where users log into the Big IP load balancer. Local users are able to access the Workspace URL without a problem from within the company. Users out of state and out of the country are not able to connect successfully on the first attempt about 85% of the time, but are able to on the second attempt after killing their browser session. Their session just hangs without rendering the login screen on the first attempt. They are usually able to log in without a problem the rest of that day. We have performed some tests and asked a few users to bypass the load balancer and hit the servers directly, and they have a better success rate of receiving the log in screen.
I am a local user and this is also an issue when trying to connect remotely to the Workspace page. It eventually times out and I receive the following message:
"_execScript::Error loading file './js/com/hyperion/bpm/web/common/format/Format.js' Error The operation was timed out".
Has anyone ever experienced this issue? I would appreciate any suggestions. Thanks!

Wireless iCal Sync?

On the iPhone, does iCal sync over the network (via wireless) with DotMac (as is the case on a Mac) or is a physical connection required to sync with a Mac/PC?

Please allow me to add my voice to the cry of people requesting wireless sync. This makes the iPhone functionally inadequate as a credible work phone. I don't want to go back to using Crack(berry). It's my only real complaint about my iPhone.
At a minimum please do something to replace the USB cable with wireless between the computer and the device. I'm constantly forgetting to leave my cable connected to my charger (at home) in the morning, and I can't sync my calendar all day.
Since I'm a software product manager by background, please allow me to suggest a small, prioritized functional description, as a way to express my prioritized list of wants. Hopefully it helps provide some insight into customer use cases.
Please, please, please.........
*Wireless sync - local*
1) The iPhone will perform a "standard" sync (calendar, contacts, images, audio) with a laptop using a "local" wireless transport (substituting transparently for the existing USB transport.) (Note that this description does not address wide-area sync over a wireless carrier network.)
2) End-user functionality remains the same with regard to the sync.
3) The first time a user wishes to pair the iPhone with a computer, an authentication, configuration, and pairing step must be performed (from within iTunes) while the iPhone is physically connected (via USB) to the computer with which the user wishes to sync.
4) The iPhone will use a network-appropriate mechanism of continually monitoring whether it has come into network connectivity with a computer to which it is paired. When it does, it prompts the user whether the user wishes to sync immediately.
4a) If the user responds yes, a sync begins
4b) If the user does not respond before the end of a timeout period, a sync either begins (or not, depending on a preference setting; the timeout can also be set in a preference).
4c) If either the sync is completed, or the user declines a sync request, the iPhone will again execute this discovery/sync-request/sync cycle periodically. (The period can be set in preferences. Default: 10 minutes).
*Network support:*
1) 802.11: The first priority is support for an 802.11 network. Syncs will only be completed when:
1a) The computer and the iPhone have been pre-paired (via iTunes, above).
1b) The iPhone has detected the 802.11 network, and the user has elected to join it, and the iPhone has successfully joined it.
1bi) (This means that when the iPhone detects an 802.11 network, it connects, and performs a lookup for the named computer with which it is paired (e.g. via Bonjour)).
1c) Syncs must be performed using encrypted IP connections (e.g. HTTPS) between the iPhone and the computer.
2) Bluetooth: The second priority is support for Bluetooth. Syncs will only completed when the computer and the iPhone have been previously paired via iTunes & the iPhone / computer link over Bluetooth has been paired (in the Bluetooth sense of the word Paired.)

Can I allow two attempts and after the first attempt have a new window open to a url?

I would like to allow the user two attempts to answer a question. However, after the first attempt, if they get it wrong, I would like a new window to open that takes them to a tutorial Web site we have, where they can find the answer. Then I would like them to be able to close that window and return to the question for the second attempt?
Is this possible?
Right now, I have designed a very clunky version of this. I have one question slide with one attempt and if they answer wrong, they go to the next slide, which has a button to the tutorial page. Then the same question slide is repeated, again with one attempt. In this same scenario, if the person got the question right the first time, they moved on to a new question slide. This works, but is bad for scoring and eliminates the possibility of using question pools and putting questions in random order.
Thanks,
Carrie

100 feet would normally not be a problem......if the AirPorts have line-of-sight with each other......but if there are obstructions like walls, ceilings or furniture in the direct signal path between the AirPorts, little if any of the signal will even reach the extending AirPort.
Try locating the extending AirPort at about 50-60 feet away to see if can pick up a stronger signal to extend.
It would be much better if you connect the AirPorts using an Ethernet cable, as there is no signal loss in an Ethernet cable up to 300+ feet.

Do Reminders in iCal sync via iTunes?

I'm using Reminders in iCal 5.0.1 on OS X Lion. I sync my iCal data with the Calendar app on my iPhone, via iTunes (not iCloud). The weird thing is, none of my Reminders data is syncing, either from my iPhone to my iMac, or from my iMac to my iPhone.
Does the Reminders data only sync via iCloud?

This doesn't help you, but I just recently started having the same problem, I just upgraded my 3G to 4.0 in iTunes so I don't know if that has anything to do with it but nothing on my phones calendar will sync to iCal. Events in iCal sync to the computer just fine thought. I hope someone can help me figure this out!

ICal sync prompts password which doesn't work

Dear support team,
Whenever my computer iCal syncs to my MobileMe, and thus to my iPhone, I get a prompt for a password that reads "Enter the password for your user account on 'End User's Computer'." When I type in my user account password it says "Sorry, you entered an invalid password. Please try again." I then type my keychain password and get the same message. I type my MobileMe password and get the same message, again. I have no other passwords to try. When I check iCal on my computer and phone, I see that the sync on iCal worked, regardless. Other than being annoying, the password prompt interupts FCP layoffs. So I set sync to manual, but forget to sync before I run to a location shoot with the incorrect unsynced info on my iPhone. I endeavor to find a solution.
One of the articles on this site instructed me to use Keychain First Aid in Keychain Access. To verify keychain issues, it prompts for my user login password, which works. It then says that there was an error, which I then repair. I test the hopeful result by syncing to iCalendar, but get the same interrupting password prompt. Another article instructs to unlock the "login" and "System" keychains, in Keychain Access, to do something there. I had unlocked and snooped around both, before consulting the sites, but now my user login password no longer works to unlock the "login" keychain, and neither do my other two passwords. Oddly, my user login password works just fine opening the "System" keychain My safari keychain locks and unlocks just fine with it's password. I go back to First Aid and see that my user password works just fine, and see that there are no errors in the keychain system, but I'm now afraid to shut down my computer fearing that I won't be able to login ever again. I'm thinking about following another discussion instruction to reboot the entire computer with the original Leopard OS disk, but that feels like a last resort headache. I could pack up the entire computer and bringing it to the nearest Apple Store Genius Bar, but that will take half a day.
I just followed a support instruction to reset the login keychain I was unable to open, restarted and tried the iCal sync with the same result as before. I can't think of anything else.
Any suggestions?
Thanks for taking the time to read this.

Just fixed it by going to MobileMe Sync Preferences and unchecking the box for keychain sync. No more password prompts that say "Invalid." Now the iCal on both computer and iPhone sync without interruption of work flow. I had originally checked the box to sync keychains so that I wouldn't have to type in ID's and passwords to enter sites on my iPhone. Big glitch in the system. Why have the box to check if it creates problems? Hopefully they'll fix it once, or if, they become aware.
Thanks for letting me think aloud.
Peace

The iPhone cannot be synced. The disk could not be read or written to.

+The iPhone cannot be synced. The disk could not be read or written to.+
That's the message I get when I sync my iPhone now after flawless syncing since the second day they came on sale. I restarted, I repaired permissions. The iPhone is only half full. I have tried a couple of different usb to iPhone chords. After trouble shooting I have found that if I don't sync iPhoto it syncs everything else just fine. I have deleted the iPhoto prefs. I have reinstalled iLife. I have reinstalled iTunes and deleted the iTunes prefs. I have gotten a brand new iPhone from the Apple store. I have backed up and deleted every photo in iPhoto and it still gets the error message.
Starting to get frustrated.

Unfortunately, I'm an Outlook junkie, and I need to sync my iPhone (1st Gen) with Outlook. I had no problems under XP. I even synced my device to Vista Business running out of Boot Camp and via Fusion.
When I upgraded to Vista Ultimate and Office 2007 (freshly installed) my iPhone refused to sync anything but my Contacts, Calendar, and Bookmarks. It didn't matter whether I was running under Fusion or natively via Boot Camp -- I would get a variety of errors, but mostly "the disk could not be read or written to" wtih the occassional "unknown error" thrown in to make my life even more miserable.
It would occasionally sync an audio or video file, but 99 times out of 100 it would die in the middle of the sync, trash something on the phone, and force me to restore it.
Restoration, though, was not possible under Windows. I would try repeatedly to restore the phone from Vista, with no success. In fact, I tried to install the updated 2.0 firmware last week, which "bricked" the phone for about 4 hours. The only way that I could restore the device was under OS X. Naturally, the error returned the first time I tried to sync on Windows again.
I was almost to the point of declaring the iPhone toasted, smashing the overpriced little trinket that's caused me so much agony into iPieces and then dropping it into an envelope and mailing it to Steve J. with a letter stating that a $600.00+ "revoltionary internet device" shouldn't croak 1 year after purchase.
<RANT>
I mean think about it -- getting bent over on pricing 2 months after purchase, Apple releasing a 3G version barely one year later (and for significantly lower price than the original) and having to sign a 2 year contract with the baby Satan that is AT&T isn't exactly what I would call a GOOD experience. Not to mention the activation fiasco, etc.
</RANT>
At any rate, all the Windows jokes aside, I believe I've finally solved my problem and it may help the others having this same problem on dual-core or hyperthreading processors.
With iTunes running, go to the Task Manager, select the Processes tab and find the iTunes processes (AppleMobileDeviceHelper.exe, iTunes.exe, and iTunesHelper.exe). Right-click on each and select "Set Affinity..." from the context menu.
In the "Processor Affinity" dialog, you should see both CPU 0 and CPU 1 checked, which is the default. UN-CHECK CPU 1, so that only CPU 0 is checked, then click "OK".
You may need to retstart iTunes and/or the services, but I didn't need to do that (and technically, you shouldn't have to do that).
Try your sync again. I'm syncing flawlessly again after that little tweak. Perhaps this is something odd about iTunes under Windows on multi-core or hyperthreading processors (read: race condition or something similar)?
I'm keeping my fingers crossed that this will continue to work, otherwise I go the smash-and-mail-to-Steve route.

ICal syncs at the second attempt!
