Meeting was created on Mac, can't edit on iPad

I created a meeting in iCal on my MBP, sent invitations, works fine. Now I'm on the road with my iPad and find I need to edit that meeting. I need to reschedule and to add another participant. But my iPad calendar won't allow me to edit. I can view details but not edit. Should it be that way?
TIA
Martin

What version of Pages do you have on your Mac? iPad Pages requires the '09 version.

Add a note to a Calendar event that was created from Mac Mail

When I create a Calendar event by clicking on a date within a Mac Mail message (you hover over a date in an email it draws a dashed box around the date and gives an option to create a Calendar event). It creates an Event in my Calendar with the following fields: Subject, Location, Date Time and alert fields, Invitees and a link to the mail message. But - I can't seem to add a Note Field. The only work-around seems to be to manually create a new calendar entry.
Does anyone know how to modify an event created from Mac Mail to add a Note Field?
iMac Retina 5K 27-inch Late 2014, OS X Yosemite Version 10.10.3, Calendar Version 8.0 (2034.9), Mail Version 8.2 (2098).

Thanks Brett for replying, but this doesn't work if the event is created by Mac Mail - which is my issue. Sure it works with any other event but not one that has been created from within Mail. If this is a bug I'm sure the Calendar people point the blame at the Mail people and vice versa but that doesn't help me. But before I submit a report to Apple I thought I would see if I might be missing something obvious.
See the attached screenshot of an event that was created by Mac Mail. There is no Add Notes field when the event is Double Clicked, Right Clicked or any other form of click.

MacBook Pro that my Airport Express WiFi profile was created crashed. Can i reset the Airport Express either to an iPad or Windows 7 computer?

MacBook Pro that my Airport Express WiFi profile was created crashed. Can i reset the Airport Express either to an iPad or Windows 7 computer?

Get the Airport Utility for the your iPad from the App store. You will need to know the password for the Airport Express (not the WiFi password) to access the AE. The iPad utility will, I think, do all of the actions to control your AE.
You can reset the AE back to factory default but with the iPad app you should not ned to.

Acrobat 9 (Mac) can't edit this particular interactive pdf. Why not?

Hi,
I sent a Word doc off to someone to get him to make an interactive pdf form, checkboxes etc. My caveat was that I had to be able to edit the pdf on my Mac with my version of Acrobat (9.0). ...And guess what. I can't edit it.
Everything works as it should, except for the fact that Acrobat doesn't offer me the option of adding or editing fields in the form. I suspect he used a PC and that this might be a factor....
And yet I've had other people help me out with forms in the not too distant past, and they used PCs, and I never had any trouble.
Has anyone had experience with something like this? Is there a workaround for it? I absolutely need to be able to edit this using my computer.
Thanks in advance!

Some possibilities, all of which will prevent the document from being edited in Acrobat:
1. The form was created with LiveCycle Designer. Such PDFs cannot be edited with Acrobat. You can check by selecting: File > Properties > Description > PDF producer
2. The file has some security restrictions set. You can check by selecting: File > Properties > Security
3. The file was Reader-enabled. You can check as with #2 above.

Create PDFs that can be edited in Acrobat Reader?

All,
Is it possible to create a PDF (designed in Indesign CC 2014/Mac, and exported as PDF in Acrobat Professional XI) that is then a) editable in Adobe Acrobat Reader XI (11.0.09) and b) is of the quality and has fonts embedded to act as a print quality PDF?
We seemed to have achieved this last year in a somewhat cumbersome manner but now on repeating the same process (Comments) Adobe prompts you to upgrade to Professional. Have features been disabled? Is there a way of doing this still? An efficient way?
We are trying to create a series of advertisement templates that the client can just edit certain text in.
Adobe, if you are listening... in the absence of not being able to email you directly, please help us out!

1. My mistake, for clarity the Client needs to edit the text in Adobe Reader XI (11.0.09).
2. I know that, but Client is insisting and I am looking for a definitive answer to end the matter
3. Yes I know, however we have advert templates that may contain a headline such as 'Property For Sale in <xxx> Area' and body copy that says: 'Thinking of selling your <xxx> Area property? Then contact your <xxxxx> branch...' (with <xxx> indicating areas the client needs to input text into a print-ready PDF in the correct embedded font, styled as per the brand guidelines (font size, font, font colour, justification) in Acrobat Reader XI (11.0.09).
4. That's what I thought, RE typographic control. To be clear by using the forms method it is not possible to style type? Nor is it suitable for high quality printing output?
5. This is an interesting point as yes our Client would need to save the files they've edited in Reader, so what issues would be faced?
6. We tried making the text editable whilst retaining the typographic style via Comments, but it involved exporting and drawing individual text boxes in a manual way.
I have suggested the Client upgrades to Acrobat Professional, besides that what would you suggest?
Much appreciate your support,

InDesign CS3 - Created ToC, now can't edit the rest of the document

I have a small document -- about 56 A5 pages, no graphics or placed files, just styled text with tables -- in which I created two new pages after the title page and created a Table of Contents for insertion in them.
I applied a new Object Style to the ToC text frames to drop them to two columns -- the rest of the document is in one column.
Now I can't access any of the document for text editing except the Table of Contents. I can select any of the text frames with the selection tools, but as soon as I go to the text tool the cursor jumps to the end of the ToC. If I try to edit it in Story Mode, only the ToC text displays.
What am I doing wrong? How do I get at the rest of my document for editing? I haven't experienced this behaviour before at all.

OK, I found out what was going on.
When I inserted the ToC, it overflowed the two pages I had alloted for it before I reset its text frames to 2 columns. As a result, it created a bunch of extra text frames on top of the existing copy.
When I reconfigured the ToC text styles to fit its two pages, those text frames were left behind, but invisible -- whenever I tried to edit text on those pages, I was actually inserting the text cursor into these invisible text frames. Once those extra frames were deleted, I could get at the underlying frames directly again.
I worked this out when I discovered that I could get the cursor into text on later pages and then page-up into the pages that had been overlaid.
I haven't yet found any way of seeing what objects are on a given page apart from just looking at it, so I don't really know how to avoid this issue in future.

Created text, now can't edit or select it???

I have created text using the typwriter tool, I selected it then copied and pasted it but now I cant select or edit either the original one or the copy. I find acrobat one of the most frustrating softwares I have ever used for simple task as editing text.
Any help would be really appreciated.
Many thanks
Nick

Hi all,
Many thanks for your replies, I did manage to work round it as LoriAUC sugested, I just found it very difficult to do what seems like a simple task, I was completing a form that I had recieved and one of the fields wouldn't let me put text in it correctly hence I used the typwriter tool. But sorted it now. I get that Bill2VT, it seems to be very limited in its editing capablities text wise, and I will have a look at the tutorials thanks Alec.
Again, thanks for all your help.
Regards
Nick

Docs won't open in Pages on Mac, from previous edit on iPad

I broached this subject in another post on iCloud b/c I thought maybe that was the culprit. I was able to get things working that time by updating passwords...although NOT because any passwords were wrong.
Here's the post from that discussion (which got no response)
https://discussions.apple.com/message/21388375#21388375
Now I have the same $@%( problem. I worked on a doc on my iPad earlier today. Go to Pages on my Mac mini and see the doc in the iCloud window, click on it and nothing. In fact, nothing opens on Pages. I tried downloading from iWork through the web and downloading a Pages '09 version to my local drive, but that wouldn't work. Really frustrating and not just a simple case of being out of sync. Versions of Pages on the iPad and Mac are up-to-date.

You may need to try one of the apps especially designed for compatibiltiy with MS Word instead of Pages.

I reset my iPad but the backup in the laptop i used for syncing was deleted. How can I restore the iPad?

I wanted to upgrade the iOS of my iPad to version 5. I reset the iPad knowing that I did not need the files or pictures I had in the gadget were already copied. As I proceded I forgot to attach it to the laptop but when I did, It opened the menu where I saw the devices but then again it only tried to access the iTunes store which is not available until now.
I decided to restore it instead, but the menu at the device column does not show any option for restore or update. the unit remains with an icon of the USB connect. To make it worse, I fear I deleted the backup file.
Help! How can I make it work again?

Try Recovery Mode
1. Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
3.While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears, release the Home button. iTunes should alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then click Restore to restore the device.
Note: Data will be lost. You may have to repeat the above many times.

I own 2 macs can I synchronise my iPad with both iTunes?

Hi everyone,
I have an iMac and an Macbook Pro. They have different content, the MBP has more books (pdfs for work mostly) and different music than the iMac which has a bit of everything from books to videos and music.
Both iTunes are logged to the same iCloud accounts and I'd like to sync without having to delete contents on the iDevices.
From my understanding, Apple does affiliate each iDevices to one iTunes at a time to prevent illegal file sharing.
Please tell me there's a way to do that...
Thanks!

No. You can only sync with one iTunes library at a time. Syncing with another requires wiping the media from the device.
There are ways to get around this, but doing so is asking for trouble. Sooner or later it will blow up in your face.

Copying content from a PDF created from Mac os x10.6.7 quartzpdf context to a MS-Word document

When I select the text from the PDF document, choose the copy option, then paste, I see garbled text in the Word document. I tried OCR recognition using Acrobat Professional 9
but that failed stating "This page has graphics other than images and text. It cannot be captured"
I checked the properties of the PDF document, and noticed that it was created from Mac os x10.6.7 quartz pdf context and PDF version was 1.4.
The text I am trying to copy is not an image and the document has no protection at all.
What else can I try?

If you look at the fonts (ctrl-D>fonts) you will probably see the fonts may not be embedded, or if they are you do not have them on your system. For instance, a MAC uses Helvetica and Windows uses Arial. They look similar, but are different fonts. Likely when you copy to WORD, you are having the problem that the fonts are not on your system. Why not just ask the author for the original document if you need to copy the information. You should asking anyway if you are going to use their info.

IMovie project too detailed. Mac can't handle it.

I'm editing a VERY long and complicated iMovie project with a lot of transparent videos on top of another, texts, audio files, high quality video clips, transitions, etc. Basically what has happened is the project is so detailed and complicated that the Mac can't edit it or handle it anymore. I open it up and I try to click on a clip and I get the rainbow wheel, I can't even move my mouse over the project, I just get the rainbow wheel.
The Mac is 2.66 gHz, and intel core dual processor. I need to finish editing this project (which is currently 19 minutes and 46 seconds long), so I need to know if theres anyway to allow my Mac to do this.
My Idea was to link several other Mac's together and network them to make one supercomputer with crazy power. I think you do with it a firewire cable.
Does anyone know a lot about this supercomputer method, how to do it, if software is required etc.? Maybe someone has a different method to solve my problem?
Much appreciated,
Jared.

Are you possibly running low on free space on your start up drive? For a complicated project you should have more than 25GB of free space on your boot drive.
If that's not the problem sometimes a simple restart will help.
Also, sometimes permissions and preferences can get corrupted. Whenever iMovie starts acting funny, a common maintenance procedure is to do the following: Delete preferences by closing iMovie and trashing the file com.apple.iMovie.plist found in User (the House icon)/Library/Preferences. Then do a permissions repair using the Utilities/Disk Utility App on your Mac. Open the DiskUtilities window and select the Mac hard drive icon at the top of the side pane at the left. Then click on the Repair Permissions button. When you have repaired permissions and deleted preferences, restart your computer and launch iMovie. iMovie will replace the .plist file that you deleted. Then see if you still have the problem.
I don't know what version of iMovie you are using, but when I am working on long or complicated movies in iM6 I often divide the project into 2 or more iMovie projects for editing purposes, and then join them together at the end.
Good luck with this.

Rrdtool-1.4.3-1-i686: "This RRD was created on another architecture"

On an i686 system, rrdtool-1.4.3-1 is unable to read/modify rrd files (created by either earlier versions or itself); it yields "ERROR: This RRD was created on another architecture".

To use Oracle AS SSO with OID 11g you should look at Chapter 10 of the Identity Management Installation Guide. This is the pre-requisite for Oracle AS SSO 10g on OID 11g. To use OAM with Oracle AS SSO as well you need to provide IdentityProvider class for Oracle AS SSO. This is handled in the OAM 10.1.4.0 Integration Guide.

Flipping pictures in Organizer - out of control - can't edit?

PSE10 on MAC - can't edit in organizer since when I click on a photo, often a different photo shows up in the edit screen. Or the photos start flipping wildly. (Used PSE7 on Windows for years with no trouble). Is the software at fault?

I am selecting just one photo. And if I right-click, I'm not sure I can do some simple edits, like cropping using the organizer screen - the simplist edit.
Tried again - the photos jump around on the screen even if I've done nothing. It seems to happen if I put my hand near the mouse - although i've been very careful. Could it be a mouse prolem? (Note: I used PSE7 for years on a Windows machine with no problems - I do some page designing.)

Mac can't recognize hard drive, and size shrunk from 128gb ssd to 1.87gb in disk utility

so my macbook air 2012 got the flashing question mark folder icon and i called apple. they said that it was becuase the mac can not recognize the operating system? or hard drive? Anyways, so i googled stuff and people recommended multiple things like holding option while booting, and others so i tried all of them but none of them worked. so i tried the command + r to go to recovery. i went to recovery and went to disk utility and went on the information tab of my hard drive since disk utility won't let me click any other option and it says that my ssd is only 1.87 gb big. It is originaly 128gb ssd.. so i tried clicking the hard drive and then restore, but none of it is working (it wont even let me click the option, grayed out). I just want to delete the whole storage and reinstall OS X, but it would be better if i can somehow retrieve my files. Can someone help me with this issue? thank you.

The SSD has failed and has to be replaced.
