Hi,
Are you seeing an Invite Window ?
Video Invites are normally top centre of your screen and will appear to "float" over any other app you you using.
Audio Only invites are top and right of the screen.

I cannot see anyone's calendar

HI Guys:
I have Lion Server on a Mac Mini, a MBP and an Ipad. I have a community calerdar set up on my server. On my MBP and Ipad I have the community calerdar loaded but I cannot see anyone's calendar. All I can see is the local calendar on each device.
In preferences on my MBP I have a CalDEV account set up (same for Ipad) and I have both local calendars checked along with the comminity calendar that is on the server.
I cannot see anything but the local calendar on either my MBP or my iPad.
Can anyone clue me in on why, or better yet tell me how to do this.
p.s. I have poured over the lion server documentation but I cannot find this step by step info anywhere.
Thank you.

Unfortunately, that didn't work for me.
I've been having a similar problem with Safari pdf files despite downloading the latest Adobe Reader XI.
I would constantly get messages - There was an error opening this document. The file is damaged and could not be repaired.
I would also get a blank page when I tried to print the pdf if I tried printing from the Safari web page using File - Print from the top toolbar on my laptop.
Meanwhile I've managed to find a simple way around it.
Firstly, without downloading the pdf, I printed the pdf file direct from the Safari page by using the Print icon on the grey lozenge that appears centrally three quarters down the screen.
Then I discovered that if I save the pdf using the Save icon from this same grey lozenge on the Safari page I can open and print this pdf version from my desktop.
I've tested it with a couple of different pdf files and these methods work using the grey lozenge icons but the same pdfs files don't work using File - Save As on the Tool Bar.

Mac cannot see my audio interface

Hi,
Please help!! I have recently purchased logic studio. In trying to set it up I keep on hitting a brick wall. I have connected my midi controller into my Edirol UA25 and connected the audio capture unit to my Macbook as shown. In the Midi/Audio settings my Mac cannot see the midi input even though Iam able to select the UA25 as an input and output device.
I've been searching the web and logic manuals for hours now!
Any answers would be massively appreciated.
Will

Hi jeb70. Hsve you selected the edirol in mac system preferences as preferred audio device? Also try unplugging the cable from the interface to the mac and replugging once logic is running. Also check if the track in logic has edirol inputs selected as that track's inputs. Hope this helps. Scorpii.

The "automatic Install" in the windows support software does not work. I cannot see the USB in Windows to manually start set up.
I have downloaded windows support software from Apple 3 time with the same result. Where can I get a clean copy of the Windows support software?

Did you correctly format your usb stick in accordance with the Boot Camp installation instructions? Go here to the Boot Camp System Requirements page, http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5634, look for your computer model/year and download the correct version of Windows Support software.

When starting a Lync group message from a Mac, anyone else using a Mac cannot see the first message.

When a group conversation is started from a Mac, any other Mac user will not see the first message unless they reply to the message immediately. Here's what I've tested:
Mac User 1 starts a group conversation with 4 people invited.
Mac User 2 sees the popup but does not immediately open the conversation window.
PC User 1 opens the conversation window and sends a reply.
PC User 2 opens the conversation window and sees all the text.
Mac User 2 finally opens the window about 30 seconds later and can see all text except the first message.
Why does the first message disappear for Mac User 2?
Note: This does not happen if the original message was started from a PC, in that case Mac User 2 would be able to see the first message.
Thank you for any help.

Hi,
Did the issue happen only for single Mac computer or for multiple computers?
Please try to login Lync client on another Mac computer with the same Lync account and test again.
Please also try to login Lync client on the issued Mac computer with other Lync account and test again.
Please check if the Lync client on Mac computer update to the latest version, if not, please update to the latest version.

Leopard Mac cannot see hard drives on Tiger Macs

Running Leopard 10.5.2 on a Mac Pro 3GHz 4-core w/6GB RAM. I cannot connect to any hard drive / root directory on any Mac on my network running Tiger (10.4.9, .10 or .11) or Panther or OS9. I have 4 Macs on the network but only one running Leopard.
The Mac running LeopardI can connect to the User folder on any Mac running Tiger but cannot see any hard drives' root directory on any Mac running Tiger . No hard drive can be accessed from a User folder even if an alias of the Tiger drive is placed in the ~/User/Public folder.
The reverse works as usual. Any Mac running Tiger can see any hard drive on any networked Mac including Macs running Leopard.
Has anyone else encountered this issue &/or found a workaround? After 2 hours with Apple Tech Support including a system specialist, they confirmed this behavior in Leopard Macs networked to Tiger OS Macs. (Hard drives can be seen between all Macs running Leopard) It was theorized by one of the Apple techs that the behavior was engineered to encourage upgrading all Macs to Leopard. BAD idea! I requested this be reported to Apple engineering.
Any ideas?
TIA!

Download and read the documentation for Carbon Copy Cloner which is handy and what a lot of us have used over the years to clone, migrate and backup or manage drives and storage.
I think 500GB is overkill for boot drive as most of your apps and OS only need less than 150GB, and all of your data and media and home folders can be anywhere you want and not on the boot drive. Also, Apple way over charges for 2TB drives and no reason or value to do so. That is history now but fwiw.
You could I guess setup one 2TB as boot drive easy enough. Then migrate etc. Make that a backup of everything. Then manually or with CCC or other you can clone just what you want to SSD and to the other 2TB drive.
Apps should always go to the boot drive, the SSD in this case, and not to other locations. No benefit putting them elsewhere.
When you migrate are your files on TimeMachine or just standard files and folders? and can't selectively copy? Honestly never found need to use M.A. more than once probably.

Cannot see zipped files in Windows Explorer

I used the code below to create a zip file. When I use Winzip to open a zip file named test.zip, I can see all the files (a.txt, b.class, etc.) that have been zipped. But, when I double-click on the test.zip in Windows Explorer (Windows XP Professional), I cannot see any of the zipped files.
Can someone give me some pointers?

I have never created a zip file using Java . But from what i know about Winzip and Window Explorer, here's my takes on it:
1. Winzip works with severals different compression algorithm 9including their own)
2. Winzip has the ability to display the content of the zip file (if the zip file happens to be one of the compression algorithm they supported....otherwise, it's highly unlikely, winzip can even open the file)
3. Window Explorer does not call Winzip to display the content of Winzip file. rather, Window Explorer has its own utility to look into the Winzip for files and display them. Note: they probably only do this for the popular compression algorith (such as Winzip .zip, probably .tar...but highly doubtful of the one that Java use to make a zip file).
So..it's probably Window Explorer does not supports display that compression algorithm (the one Java use) for a Winzip file.
Example...you created a new format for an image call .mypics
Window Explorer can display a thumb nail for .bmp, .jpeg, and quite a few other
You created an application to display the image. Now..in Window Explorer, when you click on the icon, the thumbnail of the pic is not display...this is because Window Explorer does not have a util to do thumbnail for that format.

Mac cannot see wi-fi hardware

Apparently lots of people are having this issue.
If you imac cannot see the wi-fi hardware.
1. Shut down imac.
2. Disconnect all wires connected to the imac including the power cord.
3. Hold power button down for 10 seconds.
4. Reconnect the all wires you had previously disconnected.
5. Turn on the imac and now you should have wi-fi.
Something to do with power going to the airport card. This reorders the setting.
You are welcome and have a blessed rest of your day.

G5 Power Mac Cannot See AE Base Station

i've set up my airport express network and it is working fine with my iMac 2 GHz Duo - now in trying to connect my G5 Dual 2.5 GHz Power PC the G5 cannot see the AE using airport admin utility...
steps i've taken...
bought a replacement airport antenna for the back of the G5 Tower
placed the AE directly beside my G5 and scanned for it (nothing)
taken wireless security off
waited on hold for an incredibly long time for tech support
still the G5 can't find the network...
please help

You may want to double-check to see if you connected the antenna properly on the AirPort Extreme Card in your G5. (ref: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=108039)

Mac Cannot see Windows HDD Partition/ Windows cannot reformat disc?

I have installed boot camp and windows 7 64 bit on my mac pro dual quad core.
I have 3 drives.
#1 is 1 TB and partitioned in 2 logical drives so that one is windows NTFS and one is Mac. The mac OS does not see the windows drive. In fact it appears in disk manager as UNMOUNTED and FAT when in fact its NTFS.
#2 is the drive that shipped with the mac, partitioned into 2 drives, one which boots windows (bootcamp) and 1 boots OS X. No problems.
The problem is drive #1 holds all my vido from my camcorder so I need the mac to recognize the windows drive and read the data. I copied all the data off of the NTFS partition and tried to format it in Windows. Windows says its "in use". It is not in use since Windows boots from BOOTCAMP on a different physical drive. It won't let me ignore the error, if I try it waits a few seconds and repeats the error.
I tried to erase the partion in disk manager, same issues. Even after the mac erases it into any format (Mac, Fat32, etc...), the Windows disk console will resfuse to format it claiming that its "in use".
Any ideas?
Anyone else have the same problem? I think it has to do with the hidden 200 MB partitions that windows 7 creates and that the MAC may unintenionally mess with.

On the Win7 machine,
1. Ignore everything to do with Homegroup.

3. Go Control Panel > Network and Sharing Options > Advanced sharing Settings, and Turn on network discovery, Turn on file and printer sharing, Turn off public folder sharing , and Turn off password protected sharing (unless sharing won’t occur without turning it on).
4. Restart (probably not necessary, but I’d do it).
On the Sno machine,
1. Go System Preferences > Sharing > Check File sharing > Go Options > Enable SMB sharing.
2. Go System Preferences > Network > Select Airport or Ethernet depending on what you are going to be using. I am assuming you will be using wireless below. Let me know if not true.
3. Having selected Airport, select ask to join new networks and show Airport status in menu bar.
4. Click advanced > click remember networks this computer has joined > Click Wins > Enter the ip address of your Win7 machine in the WINS server box > Enter the Win7's workgroup name in the workbook box unless it already is there (look in the drop down menu too). In all likelihood the name is workgroup, but check on the Win7 machine.
5. Restart (probably not necessary, but I’d do it).
Try to connect to your Win7. Use Go menu > Connect to server. In trying to connect, type smb://ipaddress (of the Win7 machine). If, for some reason, you are asked to, input a user name and password, then use you user name and password for the Win7. Don't save anything to Keychain now and actually never for making network connections.

Mac cannot see shared windows 7 pc or printer

Recently upgraded to windows 7 (from xp) and now I'm having issues networking with my iMac. The PC can see the Mac just fine. On the mac, 0 items show up under network, even though file and print sharing are enabled on the PC. If I "connect to server" I am able to mount the shared windows folders. I am also able to stream my itunes library from the pc to the mac. However, I cannot add the shared printer connected to the windows 7 pc to the mac. I also have a laptop running windows xp and it can see both the mac and windows 7 pc just fine. It can also use the shared printer.
Basically I need to know why my shared windows 7 pc and windows xp laptop are not showing up as shared computers in finder, and why isn't the mac recognizing the shared printer?

I've contacted both Apple and Microsoft this morning. Apple says that since I can force the connection it must be a MS issue.. something they've changed in windows 7. MS says that since the windows 7 computer can browse files on the mac and because the xp laptop can print to the shared windows 7 printer, this issue is beyond their boundary for support, ie.. it's a Mac issue.
I don't care to point fingers. I just want things to work. As a last resort, i'm going to physically connect the printer to the mac, share it, and see if the windows pc can use it. However, that is not a desirable option for me because of the location of the computers/space in my home.

I cannot see all my installed Windows 7 fonts in Photoshop

Operating System: Windows 7
Photoshop Version(s): CS5 32Bit and 64Bit
I am looking for the font "Adobe Gothic Std B" to use in Photoshop. It is available in Windows 7 Control Panel>Fonts.
Steps taken so Far:
1. Opened up the Control Panel>Fonts and made sure Adobe Gothic Std B was in there. The install button was greyed out.
2. I copied the fonts in Control Panel>Fonts into C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\Fonts
3. I exited Photoshop, exited all other applications and restarted my computer.
4. I opened Photoshop and Adobe Gothic Std B is still not available (not seen).
5. I also clicked on the Adobe Gothic Std B in Control Panel>Fonts to make sure it is not hidden. The only option it gives is "Hide" so it looks like its showing.
I cannot update to CS6 as I do not have the license for it.
Thanks for your help.

In Firefox, I have no problem with creating folders inside of the Bookmarks menu, as well as no problem with creating sub-folders in those folders.
Did you use Internet Explorer to export your favourites from Internet Explorer by creating a .htm file which you then imported in to Firefox?
