Mime-attachment.ics - can read message on iphone but not on PC

Someone has replied to an Outlook meeting request with a message that I can read on my iphone but the message doesn't appear on my PC. I assume it has something to do with the format of the message (being mime-attachment.ics) and that my PC doesn't recognise that format but I would like to know how I can fix this. Any help would be much appreciated - thanks!

If the bubble was green, the message must have gone by SMS. Macs have no direct SMS capability.
That other person either does not have an Apple iPhone, has chosen not to register the phone number with iMessage, or did not have an internet connection active at the time of your experiments.
There are services that claim to allow non-SMS devices to send SMS messages. I've never tried any of them, so I don't know how well (or even if) any of them might work.

I can print from my iPhone but not from my iPad

I Can print from my iPhone, but not from my iPad. The options
select a printer and number of copies are active. The print
button is not active ( hot ).

Try this - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

Yosemite does not recognize HP printer after upgrade. I can print from my iPhone, but not my 13" Macbook Air (2013)
Are others having the same problems?

Try this. Worked for me.
- turn off your router
- turn off you Mac's after removing all available printers
- turn off all iDevices
- do a factory reset of your printer remove all cables min. 30 sec.
- turn on your router first
- ran the network set up wizard
- give your printer also a new name like "DeskJet 2015"
Something which you don't have used before.
- turn on your Mac's and add your printer
- turn on your iDevices at least.
Should work after these steps.
It worked for me including all iDevices.
iOS and Yosemite

Can call friend on iPhone but not on ipad...

A friend tried calling me on Skype. Both my ipad and iphone are set up. His call came through on the iPhone but not on my ipad. I asked him to hang up, and I then tried calling him on my ipad. I got the usual 'trying to connect' message but he didn't get anything... He was able to call back on the iPhone only....
Help! What's going on?
By the way, I had a 40 minute call with one of my other colleagues on the ipad yesterday...so that was working okay.

sms is short message service it's 100% a cell network thing and 100% not! an Internet thing
iMessage is an IM which when on the internet and sending to an apple device send the msg as an IM (this mean instant message) and when not it send it as an sms
macs can't send sms they not being cell phones so they can only send to the apple users not other used who would require a sms

ICal Server - User can log in from iPhone but not from Desktop Mac

I've got quite the peculiar problem with iCal Server on OS X 10.6.6 - my users can log in and access the shared calendars using their iPhones. When I set up an the same account on their desktop Macs in iCal, I get an error message "The server did not recognize your user name or password for account <username@servername>".
I'm positive that username and password are correct. The only thing I found about that in the log files was that the CalDAV server returns a 201 HTTP status code when accessing the account from the iPhone vs. a 407 status code when using iCal on their desktop Mac. The same accounts are used for Email, File Sharing and Address book, all of which run fine.
Has anyone experienced a similar problem? Maybe even solved it?

Solved it myself - there was a non-ASCII character in the account password. Strange that the iPhone didn't have a problem with that while iCal did. Now that I've changed the password to contain only ASCII characters, the problem is gone.

Can send email from iphone but not from mac.

Hi. I'm using a mac desktop and the mail app. I can receive email, but not send. I checked my port and id/pswd and still cannot send. After the app tries to send, it says the server is offline.
I am able to send email fine with my iphone.
Any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks!

I've checked this and mail connection doctor says I am connected - think I am going to have to get someone in to help me as I have spent about 4 hours on this now :-(

Can read TEDS in MAX but not with DAQmx VIs

Hi,
I have a cdaq 9181 with a 9234 accelerometer module. I have 3 teds equipped accelerometers connected to ai0, ai1, and ai2 repectively. In MAX, when I reserve the chassis I can read all three teds, no errors. When I do the same thing in labview (ie reserve the chassis, create a daqmx task, associate teds data with each physical channel, all with daqmx VIs) I can only read two out of three teds. The third one throws a "no teds sensor detected" error. This code has been in use for about four months now, though I just rewrote the calling VIs, and hasn't displayed this problem. I've attached a snippet of the task building VI for reference.
Any ideas what's going on?
Thanks.
Using LV2012 and MAX 5.3.1 running on Windows 7 32 bit.

Nope. That's a delete from array, length 1, index 3.
In any case, I eliminated that block since the string array wired to the for loop controls how many devices the VI attempts to configure. Same result, verified it was trying to configure ai2. Here's the updated snippet:

We cannot seem to get our Mac's to read aloud (voiceover is on) a pdf doc. We can read aloud webpages, emails but not pdfs - not even pdfs that supposedly are "accessible-ready". What are we doing wrong?

How do we get a pdf to be "voiceover" friendly by just using our cursor or is this even possible? We can with web pages, emails - anything on our desktop,etc. but not a pdf - even if it is "accessibly"

Message on iPhone but not on MAC

I have a MACBook Pro and and iPhone 4s both with the app messages. Generally a message appears on both and I can send from either. Yet the other day I was given a phone number and tried to send a message via my MAC but it was unable. Yet I successfully sent a message to this person via my iPhone and he responded. The bubble on my message was green not blue, so I assume my message did not go via iMessage. Is there a way how I can make his name appear in my MACs messages so I can send him future messages from my MAC? All I have is his phone number.

If the bubble was green, the message must have gone by SMS. Macs have no direct SMS capability.
That other person either does not have an Apple iPhone, has chosen not to register the phone number with iMessage, or did not have an internet connection active at the time of your experiments.

Recently my keyboard on my macbook pro died. i backed up the machine to my Seagate 500GB hard drive, successfully, and sent the notebook in for repairs. Now that the macbook is repaired, i can read from the seagate, but not write to it. It says read only.

Recently my Macbook Pro's keyboard failed. Using my wireless keyboard, i managed to backup everything to my 500gb Seagate external hard drive. I sent the machine in, had the keyboard repaired, and now the machine is back, and i am loading my content back onto the macbook. My problem is that the drive is now read only, and i have searched for all the obvious fixes. The lock on the permissions secion of the info block on the drive. (not present). I have even tried disk utility, but all the options are greyed out.
I am a graphic designer, and so i use my external drive extensively to move artwork around, so it is important that i can make it writable. It worked perfectly on this very same machine, two weeks ago, and nothing has changed on the drive, so i can only assume it is a software issue on the operating system.
I have read through all the forums, etc, and can find nothing that works. I am loath to change anything on the drive, as it was working perfectly on this system before the system went in for its repair.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Deleting messages from iPhone but not server

Since starting iCloud, it appears that if I delete an email on my iPhone, it also eliminates from the server. I would like to keep a copy that can be viewed on the iMac at home. How do I set this up?

That's how it's supposed to work, so that all devices are synced. If you don't want to delete mail you have read, move it to an archived folder. Alternatively, on your mac in mail, move it to an on my mac folder, this will retain it in mail, but move it off your phone.

Can't open "mime-attachment.ics" file...

I have my emails forwarded to the email account I use on my iPhone. Everything comes across fine, except calendar invitations. These come across with an attached "mime-attachment.ics" file...I just want to open it so I can see the time being proposed... don't need it to update my calendar. Can't find an app that will open an .ics file... any suggestions?

tongadog is absolutely right. You cannot receive an email with an invitation and open the .ics attachment to see what you are invited to. Not only the iPhone email application should be able to understand the attachment and display the description of the calendar invitation, date, time, location and so on, but one should be able to tap on it and have the invitation sent to the calendar. This is very very obvious and basic requirement. If Apple wants the iPhone to live in the business environment this is a fundamental functionality. People in the Windows environment constantly sent these types of invitations and people with Blackberrys continuously laugh at me because I cannot see the content on my iPhone and I am lost as to when the next meeting is. Please Apple, this should be an easy one for you!!! By the way, it is not a 3.0 or 3.1 issue, it's always been like this, I've been suffering from this for a year and a half.

TS1347 ios 7: how can i open a mime-attachment.ics file?

since i installed ios7 on my iphone i can not open mime-attachment.ics (invitation sent from an outlook email) files in my calendar. does anyone know what i can do to open these files in my calendar?

All email attachments are encoded before being sent are encoded with MIME.
If your receive an email attachment that is not recognized by the computer or mobile device, that usually means there is not an application available on the computer or mobile device that is compatible with the attachment type.
For the iPhone's email client:
Viewable document types
.jpg, .tiff, .gif (images); .doc and .docx (Microsoft Word); .htm and .html (web pages); .key (Keynote); .numbers (Numbers); .pages (Pages); .pdf (Preview and Adobe Acrobat); .ppt and .pptx (Microsoft PowerPoint); .txt (text); .rtf (rich text format); .vcf (contact information); .xls and .xlsx (Microsoft Excel); .zip; .ics

HT5622 Why can I send a message with an attached photo to one contact on phone or email and can't to another contact. I can sent message on iPhone still I was using messages on iPad

Why can I send message on iPad messages to one contact and not send same message with same photo to another contact. I can sent message on iPhone to same contact

I would guess that the problem contact does not have iMessage turned on. The iPad can only send iMessages not SMS messages (phone text). You can send a message to this contact with your iPhone because your iPhone can send SMS text messages.
