IOS 4.2.1 / Exchange Calendar Bug - "Tentative"

I've noticed a problem with iOS 4.2.1 on my iPhone and iPad. Whenever I accept a meeting request from Outlook it shows up as "Tentative" in iOS even though it is "Accepted" in Outlook. If I accept the request from iOS directly it shows up as "Accepted" on both calendars. Anyone else seen this problem before? It's driving me a bit crazy and I'm hoping it is a bug that will be resolved.

Hello
Check the following:
Make sure your account is not a member of an AD protected group - for example Domain Admin, Enterprise Admin etc.
Check if security inheritence is disabled on the user object. If it is, turn it back on. This in done through the security tab on the user object -> Advanced and the checkbox in the lower left corner "Allow inheritable permissions....." - this should be enabled.
Presto!
Kind regards

  • Will IOS 6 support viewing Exchange calendar attachments?

    Good day,
    I use an iPhone in the workplace, and my calendar appointments always have attachments.  I can not view these attachments in IOS, yet on my old Android phone, I was able too.  I switched to the iPhone for the stability, however this is becoming a growing problem as more employees are getting iPhones and running across the same issue.
    My question is quite simple, will IOS 6 support viewing Exchange calendar attachments?
    Thank you.

    Our company is making the move from the BB to the iPhone. We've had iPad (3 series) issued to us for a little while now and that's been the biggest and really the only complaint. All of our schedule sheets for our Field Service Engineers are sent via attatchments. We can't see where we're going if we accept the appointment.
    Is there a way to make this work? The Samsung's don't allow this either.

  • Longstanding Exchange Calendar Sync Bug Persists in iOS 7 / 7.0.2

    For those who sync their iPhone / iPad / iPod touch to a Microsoft Exchange e-mail environment, you may be aware that there's a longstanding Exchange Calendar Sync bug (affecting iOS 4.x - 6.1.3).  An otherwise functional iDevice may suddenly remain warmer to the touch than normal, exhibit much shorter battery life, and start using cellular data at up to ten times the user's typical pattern.  I've taked with Apple Support several times, and was never able to get an answer.  The fix involves simply opening the Exchange account settings on the iDevice, shutting off calendar sync for thirty seconds, and turning it back on.  This is nothing new.
    Over the weekend, an executive’s iPhone 5 (on Verizon) and his iPad 2 (Wi-Fi only), both running iOS 7, began exhibiting runaway connections to my employer’s Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync server.  The user upgraded his iPhone 5 to iOS 7.0.2 over the weekend, but the problem persisted.  In one 24-hour period, his iPhone checked in with our server 45,009 times, while his iPad connected 55,547 times.  Normally we’d expect to see a single device connect a few hundred times per day rather than tens of thousands.
    I've written more about it here.

    This is still a problem in iOS 7.0.4 as well.  We just had runaway calendar sync behavior on a 4th generation iPad running iOS 7.0.4 (iPad3C4/1102.55400001), which connected 75,436 times in a single 24-hour day.

  • Exchange calendar invitations accepted in IOS remain "new" in iCal

    My work calendar and email is based on Exchange. I manage both from a Mac (using Outlook 2011 for Mac) and an iPhone 5 running IOS 7.latest.
    It works just fine. If I accept an invitation on any platform is is accepted on all. Then I look at OSX Calender (which I will refer to as iCal) and I still see a mass of invitations (the ones that I accepted on my phone or using Outlook).
    I use iCal because I share calendars with the rest of my family using iCloud. So that I can view my work and home calendars in one place, I have also set up iCal to see both iCloud and Exchange calendars.
    The iCloud side of the house does what I want it to do. The problem comes with the way iCal deals with calendar invitations from my Exchange account. Here goes:
    I receive an Exchange calendar invitation.
    I process it (accept/tentative/decline) using Outlook on the Mac or the IOS Calendar on my iPhone.
    The invitation on the device I didn't use goes away.
    I open iCal.
    The "new" invitation is still there in iCal waiting to be processed, the only way to clear it is to accept/tentative/decline it.
    I cannot find any setting to prevent this from happening. iCal seems to ignore changes in status of Exchange invitations.
    Any ideas gratefully accepted! Thanks, Charlie

    have had what I think is similar issue.... on both ipad and iphone.  Running IOS6.  Have gmail account setup through exchange connector.  IOS receives and accepts invites just fine from external devices....  If i create a new invite on the IOS device and add invitees with external email addresses, once this calendar invite is saved into the diary it doesnt trigger invites to go out to those 3rd parties... but the invite definitely is in the calendar as can also see it on mast google calendar.
    If I then go and move the timing of the invite that has been created on the IOS device (by holding down and dragging to new time) this then immediately triggers an invite (new Invitiation, not reschedule) to be sent to the external email addresses...  any further modification to timing of invite then triggers 'reschedule' calendar invites to go out - so expected behaviour.
    The issue is that IOS is not triggering the invite to go out to external parties who have been added to a newly created invite - and it only does this when the date/time of the invite is modified.
    Spent about 1.5 hrs on phone to apple support yesterday - they have now passed on to 3rd level support....
    Are others seeing the same behaviour as above?

  • Microsoft exchange calendar sync issue in iOS 5.0.1

    Hi,
    I have iPhone 4 with iOS 5.0.1 installed. My company uses Miycrosoft Exchange Server and I have synched my iPhone using the Microsoft Exchange server account option. I don't have any probelm with my emails or contacts.
    However, the calendar is not synching properly. After I setup the account for the first time, I see many of my calendar items has been synced. But some of them are missing. I can't find any reason why those items are missing. I added/deleted new items on my calendar on Outlook Web Access and it showed up on my iPhone. I also tried adding/deleting items on my iPhone and they synched appropriately. The only issue is some of the pre-existing items are not showin on my iPhone and I can't find any reason for it.
    I already tried to delete the account and add from scratch. I also removed the iCloud from my iPhone and tested without iCloud, no difference. I reinstalled the iCloud.
    Any help is much appreciated.

    We have struggled with this as well on Exchange 2010. We just trued this today with some of our users and seems to get everything back into sync:
    On the iOS device:
    • Navigate to Settings app > Mail, Contacts, Calendar.
    • Scroll down and locate the Calendar section
    • Tap Sync (under the Calendars section)
    • Set the interval to All Events
    • Close the Settings app (Tap Home button)
    I suggest rebooting the iOS device. Check the calendar and let it sync – look for those missing events.
    This has worked for everyone that had the missing events issue.

  • Exchange calendar sync issues among iOS devices and Mavericks

    When I add an event to a shared Exchange calendar on my Mac in iCal, and mark it as All-Day, that designation does not appear with the event on my iOS devices. Instead, it's given a 24-hour duration from 12 to 12, so to speak. Here's the confusing part: If I edit the event on my iPhone to correct it as All-Day, it does not sync that All-Day designation to my iPad. Additionally, if I then make the same correction on the iPad, toggles it on the phone and removes All-Day. Removal of All-Day designation on a device does remove it on the Mac calendar, which I then have to change back. So I chase it around in a circle and end up with the correct duration on only one iOS device. The difference in All-Day and 24 hours duration does matter graphically as many of these events run for several weeks or months. All-Day keeps them confined to the upper section of the calendar graph rather than muddying up the lowerm hourly appointments.
    Any ideas on how to rectify the problem?
    I'm running Mavericks, iOS 7.0.3 and using MS Exchange 2010.

    There are several other posters on the Forums that are having issues with Exchange sync'ing with Mavericks. It could be that your all-day verses mutli-hour issue may be among them.
    Most of the problems that people are seeing, including myself, are more to do with Mail and Calendar simply not synchronizing.
    My Mail.app INBOX for my Exchange server is now several hours behind my iOS and Windows Outlook instances. Calendar appointments are simply not being pushed to the server (though they seem to be retrieved OK).
    So, sorry for now help on this one directly, but you are not alone.

  • Appointments emailed from iCloud calendar in Outlook are not received on IOS device using exchange calendar.

    I email tons of appointment invitations from my iCloud calendar in Outlook.  Appointments synch to IOS devices and are on icloud.com.  People receive invitations in Outlook and on IOS devices.  My husband runs IOS devices with exchange calendars.  He never receives the appointment invitations.  All of the appointment invitations are on his iCloud.com account.  Can he synch to both exchange and iCloud?  WIll this allow him to see the invitations I send that are hung up in iCloud?

    Could be a corrupt item, this usually fixes it if that is the case
    Backup device then in Outlook
    highlight calendar
    goto file import/export
    choose export to file
    choose Persoanl folder pst, next
    make sure calendar is highlighted and choose subfolders if you have them, next
    save to desktop with a name you can remember, Finish
    Click ok on screen popup
    Go to view, arange by events
    delete all entries.
    close outlook and any word files, open outlook back up after 15 seconds.
    Then
    goto file import/export
    import from another program or file, next
    choose Persoanl folder pst, next
    find the file and import
    Choose highlight calendar and Finish

  • Problems with iPad Exchange Calendar Sync under iOS 5.0.1

    Under the prior iOS, I had been using my iPhone (3GS) and iPad1 with my calendar (and mail) synching with my Exchange account without any problems.
    Now, under iOS 5.0.1, my calendar synchronization and how invitations are handled has become completely erratic.
    Fortunately, none of the actual events on the server have been corrupted.
    But when I accept invitations on my computer, the invitations don't get cleared on the phone.  And/or they mysteriously change to "grey" unaccepted events.
    If I then accept an invitation on the phone, it does not get changed on the iPad.  If I then accept it on the iPad, then the phone switches its status to an unaccepted event.
    It is completely infuriating.

    Templeton - I realized I'm not completely clear about your suggestion. 
    Do you turn off the calendar for the Exchange acccount under the Settings for the iPhone or iPad.  Which I guess eliminates the account, and then you have to enable it again and get it synched down to the appliance? 
    I was debating trying this approach, and was encouraged that you found it to work.....
    Thanks.
    correct. 

  • Does IOS 5.01 fix the Exchange calendar corruption problem?

    IOS 5 has an issue that will corrupt Exchange calendars, deleting appoints, etc. Does 5.01 fix this problem?
    Thanks!

    5.0.1 does not address Outlook, my guess is that any troubles you have are on Outlook's end.

    ipad - how to push Exchange calendar events to iCloud account? MobileIron is used to get Exchange data -- is there an app to push the ipad version of the events to iCloud?
    There are two separate calendars on ipad (ios 7.1) one for icloud, one fo exchange. I have tried a couple of calendar apps and while they do a good job of showing the events in the app - they don't push (synch) back to iCloud. Any thoughts on an app that will take my ipad calendars and synch them to a single icloud calendar/account?
    Thanks

  • Does Your Exchange Calendar Currently Show Events More Than 2 Weeks Old?

    Quick question: Can you view any exchange calendar items on your Pre which you have created on your desktop and which are more than two weeks old as you read this post? I can't.  After several hours of support chat and then an "elevation" to phone support, I was told by Palm telephone support that this was a new feature after Webos 1.2.1.
    However, two things make me doubt that this is true:
    1) Other Pre users on precentral.net report that they have installed 1.2.1 and they can still see exchange calendar events older than two weeks.
    2) I noticed something really weird: I had deleted my exchange account and was re-adding it in an attempt to solve the problem. The account was syncing but I was watching my screen and it was displaying the monthly view of September, 2009. When the account was almost done syncing, I saw the calendar "flicker" a couple of times and when it did, I could see that there were all my grayed out September dates. Then it said that sync was complete and all events before 9/30/09 disappeared.
    SO...I'm thinking that the data is actually in the phone but just not displaying on the calendar! That is really weird and would seem to be a true "bug" to me. For my job, I really need to be able to look back and verify what appointments occurred on what dates in the past. The Iphone and Blackberry users at my office that use the same exchange server can look back months and years at their old events. 
    If you are reading this could you please reply to let me know if this is a unique issue for me or whether others are having the same experience? I'd really appreciate it.
    Thanks,
    Joe

    Post relates to: Pre p100eww (Sprint)

    Very similar issue here.  I am syncing my Pre with Google Mail.  Don't even ASK what a hassle it was to get my Entourage contacts into Gmail and have everything populate the correct fields.  A freakin' NIGHTMARE.
    That said, the syncing with synergy seems to work well, with one major drawback.  No calendar entries older than two months.  This renders my calendar virtually useless.  What is the POINT of this stupidity.  I am perfectly capable of deciding if I want to use my pre's storage for older entries.
    Unbelievable.  I really hope palm gets it's head in gear and starts supporting its loyal users.  Much more of this, and I will jump to virtually ANY other smart phone. 

  • Exchange calendar from iPad doesn't sync with iCal

    Hi there, I hope this is the right community to post my problem....
    OK, I'm using an iPad 3 (iOS 5.1) which syncs rather nice with the Exchange account (mail, contacts, calendar) of my company.
    But if I try to sync the Exchange calendar from the iPad via iTunes with my Mac at home (24'' iMac DualCore 2006, OS10.6.8) the Exchange calendar won't show up in iCal. Every other calendar I created for test showed up just fine...but not the one I sync'd with my Exchange.
    Any idea how I get this to work ?                       
    Message was edited by: netscraper

    Syncing your Exchange calendar on your Mac through your iPad isn't the best approach.  What you should do instead is sync your Mac with Exchange directly.  In other words, treat the iPad--Exchange sync and the Mac--Exchange sync  independently.  This is what I do, and it works great on my Mac.
    Your iPad--Exchange setup is working fine, so leave that alone.  Turning then to the Mac-Exchange setup, I'm not in front of my Mac at the moment, but basically to set up Exchange on your Mac, go into the email preferences and select new account.  Configure it as an Exchange account and enter the relevant information.  You will need to know the "EWS" (Exchange Web Service) address... it is usually something like "outlook.companyname.com" and your regular login info.  For me, it was the same web address as if I wanted to access my email from a webpage using the MS Outlook Web Access feature.  Your IT folks can help with this if necessary.
    Once you set this up, you can also sync calendars, reminders, and contacts onto your Mac too.  And the best part is that this will sync with your iPad!

  • How can I stop Exchange calendar event copies appearing in drafts?

    I use Outlook 2010 on a Windows machine at work. On my MacBook I use Outlook 2011 and have the Exchange calendar configured for iCal. Sync'ing works fine, except this one annoyance.
    Since upgrading to Mountain Lion copies of existing, repeating calendar events keep appearing in my Outlook drafts folder. Every few days I have to empty it, sometimes from 50 event copies or more.

    I too, was experiencing this. There seems to be no indication of a solution anywhere on the web. HOWEVER, I figured it out.
    Here's the solution: Strangely, it's not really an exchange issue, but rather an issue with calendaring on the OSX side.
    So you understand, here's the configuration that can cause problems:
    you are using an exchange server to connect your email/calendar/notes/tasks...
    You use a PC (or VM PC) for some/most of your exchange/outlook activities
    You may or may not have MS Office 2011 (Mac) installed.
    You have one or more Apple devices connected to your exchange account (iPhone, iPad, any Mac)
    After installing Mountain lion, you start noticing events being magically duplicated every few minutes in your outlook draft folder. If you delete an event, another one takes its place.
    HERE IS THE FIX:
    Short answer: Sync all calendars on all devices
    On the apple side (OSX, IOS) you MUST turn on calendar sync in all the exchange accounts on all your devices. I thought I had, then discovered that my MS Office Outlook on my Mac was missing that sync. It doesn't seem to matter which apple device is missing the sync, it only takes one of them. Once you set calendar sync to "on" for all the apple devices that access that calendar, just like magic, the phantom multi event creation stops.
    You should check all MS products on the OSX/IOS devices AND all apple devices that allow syncing. I haven't turned on notes sync through the cloud, so that isn't one of the items that cause problems.
    If you do this and the multi still appears, you missed something on one of your apple devices.
    Sweet!

  • Exchange Calendar iPhone Sync

    We have been experiencing an on going issue with a user who's Exchange Calendar will not fully sync on his iPhone. The calendar events update correctly in both Outlook and on his iPad but not the phone. Both the iPad and iPhone are running the latest version of iOS. In the past we resolved the issue by recreating the sync partnership with the device on the server itslelf and also by removing and adding the calendar back to the phone. Both fix the issue for 3 - 4 weeks on average before it happens again.
    The Exchange server itself is running the latest rollups. We have other users with similar set ups but the issue has only been reported by one user. Are there any iPhone settings I may be missing that we could try? This user relies heavily on his meeting information to be accurate to work and it has created several issues for him.
    Thank you,
    Chris

    I've run into this a lot lately.  Being sure to check both the default calendar in Settings - Mail, Contacts, & Calendars and the Calendars tab in the Calendar App after resyncing the Exchange account; the issue seems to repeat itself a few days or a week later.  It's not happening with all of our end users, but enough for me to think it has something to do with iOS 8.1.2 (or at least 8.1.2. on the 5S).  Clicking on the Calendar app, Calendars, and Hide all Calendars, and then Show All Calendars and done, seems to fix (essentially toggling Hide All Calendars off/on).  I've been using this for two weeks, and so far so good.  I will update if the issue rears its' ugly head again.
