Integrating Outlook (Meeting Request) with JSP/ASP

Hi there
I am new to this forum. I was wondering if anyone knew a way where I could have a form in ASP or JSP for setting up meetings, and this form sends in meeting requests(instead of mail) to the recipients' outlook mailbox?
Thank ya all.

Hi,
Before we go further, Please kindly confirm does this issue only happens on that iPhone 5c? or repro's on all recipients' devices?
You might need to check if you have checked the check box of use the iCalendar format in
File->Options->Calendar->When sending meeting requests outside of your organization, use the iCalendar format.
Start your Outlook client in safe mode also worth a try as some add-ins, like the Anti-virus add-ins may also cause this kind of issue. Just press Win + R and type "outlook.exe /safe" in the blank box, then press Enter.
Please try above workarounds first, and feel free to post back with any findings.
Thanks,

  • Sending Outlook Meeting Requests through Outlook using JSP?

    Hi all,
    I'm trying to develop a web application that's able to invoke the Create New Meeting Request dialog from the client's Outlook (they are using Outlook 2002/2003), and populate some data from server-side into the Meeting Request, so that users can customize the Request if necessary and send it out.
    Have looked at a few solutions as follows:
    1) HTML's mailto
    This is not good, coz the body can only accept plain text, whereas I need to be able to send HTML text (which Outlook can accept).
    2) Outlook View Control
    This was more hopeful, as I was able to invoke the new Meeting Request dialog. However still no way to send my data to the Meeting Request :-(
    Basically, what I need is to be able to send a customized Meeting Request through some means, like for example getting Outlook to do it like the above, or sending out via some Java APIs (do they exist?)
    Any ideas if the above is possible at all? Or if there are other ways to do this, other than relying on Outlook?
    I'm open to any suggestions, even commercial solutions, since I'm quite urgently in need of options.
    Note that I can't connect direct to Exchange (there are some solutions for doing that), because of some security issues which doesn't allow me to connect to the Exchange Server.
    Thanks in advance for any advice!

    Hi whartung,
    Thanks for the reply! Appreciate it.
    I think what you are suggesting is exactly what Outlook View Control is. Unfortunately, as I've mentioned, it seems that Microsoft did not give it sufficient controls to be able to pre-populate a new Meeting Request. You can only invoke the Outlook UI to create the Meeting Request, but there's no APIs to populate the new Meeting Request.
    Have however found a possible alternative in the meantime:
    Outlook supports iCalendar files which is a standard for calendaring information storage, and it is able to process a Meeting Request from an iCalendar file which contains details of the Meeting Request.
    So what I'm looking to do is this:
    1) Create the iCalendar file in the backend with Java.
    2) Send an email to the user(s) who is intended to receive the Meeting Request, with the iCalendar file attached.
    3) User clicks on the iCalendar file, which prompts them to process the Meeting Request.
    Somewhat indirect, but gets the Meeting Request across, and all the 3 steps are actually possible.
    Furthur to this, it opens up the possibility of sending Outllook Contacts (which supports iCard format) through similar mechanisms as well!

  • Cannot view an outlook meeting request

    I cannot view an outlook meeting request on an iphone 5s running ios 7.1.2.  A fundamental gap in trying to link my personal life with my business life (which exists in the Microsoft world).

  • What is the difference between "new meeting request with" and "new meeting request"

    Hi all,Can anyone tell me that what is the different between "new meeting request with" and "new meeting request" on Outlook?Please help me...Thanks!Tony

    Are you using Outlook 2003? The option “new meeting request with” is only available when it is a public folder or shared calendar in OL2003.

  • Outlook Meeting requests

    Cannot seem to handle Outlook 2007 Meeting requests in downloaded email. Is there an App than can do this or handle .ics information? QuickOffice already loaded.

    No. Meeting invitations can only be 'handled' on the iPhone with an MS Exchange account on the phone. The mail app doesn't support .ics attachments (Exchange invites are dealt with in the Calendar app).

  • How to get meeting requests with Hotmail Exchange account on iphone

    I have the iphone 4 running on IOS 5. I have a business POP3 account and a hotmail exchange (IMAP) account on the phone. 
    When I send a meeting request to the POP account, I can select the ics attachment and accept the meeting. But the ics attachment on meeting requests send to the exchange account is not selectable.
    I saw previous discussions concerining not being able to send meting requests on the same exchange system but dont think this is what is happening. (I am sending meeting requests using outlook on my work PC to my personal iphone)
    thanks in advance

    Do you have computers as well which your phones sync from?
    Copy the songs to your machine using the Home Sharing
    If you have not already done so then Authorise your computer with her Apple ID then you can play and sync this content to your phone

  • IOS7 and outlook meeting requests not showing up

    I am using Outlook 2007 on a PC (Windows 7).  Just updated my iPhone 5 to the new iOS 7 Operating System.  All seemed well until I sent a meeting request through my outlook on the desktop to a fellow iPhone user.  The email with the mime-attachment.ics came through to her email just fine.  However, you can't open it and it's not showing up in the calendar inbox or calendar.   I tried sending one to myself, same results.
    It worked just fine before the update.  Any suggestions?  I currently do not use an online calendar or iCloud...just the outlook program on my desktop.  iCloud presented a problem between my husband's exchange server and invites that I sent him so I kept it turned off.
    Thank you,
    LC

    I really wish your solution worked for me.  Unfortunately, even turning on the S/Mime switch, I'm still not able to view the calendar appointment.  Nothing has changed for me, but I'm glad it's working for you. 
    BozyGoBlue, your solution worked for me.  However, it's crazy to have to jump through the extra hoop to get an appointment on my calendar.  I did try forwarding the email appointment message to myself, and that worked too.  Since your solution worked for both of us, I'd be interested in knowing if I am gbot's solution worked for you. 
    Still looking for a  fix.  If anyone comes across anything, I'd appreciate you coming back here and posting.  I'll do the same.

  • Disappearing Notes in Meeting Requests with Room Mailboxes

    We are running Exchange 2010 SP3. We observe this behavior with both Outlook 2010 and 2013.
    When a user creates a new meeting request for a moderated room, the notes only show up on the organizers request (in their Outlook calendar pending), but the delegate cannot view the notes. There is information contained in the notes that will aid the delegate
    in approving or denying the meeting request in the various Rooms.
    How can I make it so that the Notes in the Meeting Request are viewable by the delegate?
    Thanks in advance!

    Hi,
    Do you mean you want to set a delegate for room mailbox for meeting request approving? If it is, we can run the following command in Exchange server to achieve it:
    Set-CalendarProcessing -Identity "Room222" -ResourceDelegates

  • Outlook Meeting Request Notes Incomplete

    I have ditched Outlook in VMware for Apple Mail and iCal.
    Over the past couple of months I have been receiving some meeting requests that I have accepted into my calendar which do not include the complete notes from the meeting request. It has cause me to be late or re-request meeting details a few times now. We use webex for many meetings and most meeting hosts include meeting details and URLs to join the meetings in the note section.
    Sometimes the complete details are included in the iCal entry and other times not. I have not figured out when this works versus' when it does not. It happened today when I believe I was forwarded an existing meeting from another's calendar, but so far I have not figured out a pattern.
    When I accept the meeting the original note is moved to the Trash in Mail. When I look at the deleted email that contains the missing meeting details. This has happened on my Mac Pro and Mac Book Pro.
    Does anyone else experience this or have a fix?

  • Sending Outlook Meeting requests using iPhone contacts

    Is there a plugin or undocumented feature for creating an appointment on the iPhone 3G and send to recipients using the iPhone contact list?

    I am dying to know this too. I'm syncing my calendar too and this would be sweet.

  • Not able to create meeting request in outlook using desktop connection

    Hi All,
      We installed the desktop connect professional edition and integrated MS outlook and CRM business activity.
    Our goal is to trigger an outlook meeting request (not an outlook appointment).
    We tried to configure this by creating a CRM business activity and syncing with outlook but does not seem to work.
    We are able to create an outlook appointment but not a meeting request.
    What we envision is the business activity needs to trigger a accept/reject/ reschedule meeting request functionality. Only when the user accepts the meeting request it should sync the outlook calendar / SAP calendar.
    Is this functionality available out-of-box or does it need enhancements to the interface ?
    Regards,
    S.Balaji

    Hi All,
      Closing the thread.

  • 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.

  • Mail Meeting Request Sent But Outlook User Can't Accept

    Are there any tricks around this? I'm using my companies POP system and I get and can accept Outlook meeting requests just fine. However, when I send a new meeting request, there is only an atm attachment and no way to accept the meeting.
    Any ideas, tips or tricks?
    Thanks!

    I'm a former Palm Treo user for years, syncing with Palm desktop on my PC, and have several thousand appointments with notes on my Palm, as well as over 1000 contacts. I just switched to the i-phone 3GS, moved all my data from the palm over to Outlook 2003, synced after much heartache and difficulty, then moved all this data to the i-phone via i-tunes. As a first time user, the usefulness of the built-in calendar app. is weak, and when you have multiple overlapping appointments, it's very difficult to see these appointments in an easy visual field. In addition, there's no way to search for any content within the appointments other than by the particular day. Nor can you see the year view on the calendar.
    Does any former Palm of Blackberry business user have another Calendar application suggestion for the 3GS or 3G that will sync with Outlook 2003, or better yet with Mobile Me? If you move to a different app for calendar, syncing with multiple machines or Mobile me is a problem, from what Apple tech support tells me.
    Thanks.
