Otlook Internet Calendar not importing

Hi,
My web application (asp.net mvc) provides a 'webcals' link that users can import into outlook and add a calendar from the app. This was all working fine a week ago. I updated the webapp to be accessed exclusively over ssl and now the functionality has stopped
working. The funny thing is, I reverted back to plain http access and the problem persists.
If I take the http link that displays in outlook and put it directly into a browser an ics file is returned. I can then open that file in outlook and all is good.
If I add the link to 'Outlook - Tools - Account Settings - Internet Calendars' and send/receive to sync I get the following:
Task 'Internet Calendar Subscriptions' reported error (0xAF604005): 'The file "Feed" is not a valid Internet Calendar File.'
The link in outlook (Subscription Options pane-Location) points to a controller in my app that returns an ics file. As I said before putting this link in a browser returns the ics file ok. Link is:
https://login.[MYAPP].com/Events/Feed?token=a15fd1ed-3a0-443f-a767-55f9a2a4ff5
Outlook seems to be picking up the last part of the link as the file name. This exact link worked fine in the past. Also I have tested with straight http and the error still remains.
Have tested on a few versions of outlook and getting same error.
Any help on this is greatly appreciated.
CD.

IPhoto '11 - Calendar not showing imported events

Created a new calendar project, picked the calendars to import into it, everything showed just fine.
I quit iPhoto, opened it up a couple days later, and all the pictures were there, but the events were blank. Nothing on any date. Not even the holidays.
I've done everything to try to get these back.. Unselect/deselect. Trash PList. Create new calendar in Calendar.app. Nothing.
This happened to me last year, and I opened up a bug w/ Apple and received absolutely no movement on it. This year, same thing.
(Last year I had to hand-enter everything into it, even the Holidays.)

Okay, sorta success. I exported my main calendar (which was a local Mac calendar) to my desktop, re-imported it into a newly created iCloud calendar. Picked that from the options tab in the calendar editing view, and the events showed!
... but, once I re-picked "US Holidays" from the Holiday drop-down, my events disappeared.
So, I had to unselect US Holidays to get my calendar's events to show up. (But, this didn't work with a local calendar?) And then hand-enter all these events in, which now look "wrong", because the imported events show up in the top 1/3 of each date cell, but my hand-entered stuff shows up on the bottom 2/3. (Comon, Apple)
Other things that have worked in the past, which don't work now:
1) When dragging a picture onto a date (for instance, someone's birthday), picking a caption location and typing in a caption - resulted in no caption being shown. If I re-click on the date, the option for caption shows "None". (Possible the calendar type doesn't support it?)
2) Click on a date, hand-enter some stuff into the cell - if I click "off" the entry window, the entry window blanks out, but doesn't dismiss, and it retains the same date. (So it appears you zero'd out all text for that date, which isn't true.) This entry window should dismiss, I'd think.

Import Entourage Calendar Notes into iCal

Hello...
Is there a way to import Entourage Calendar Notes into iCal's notes section? When I imported my data into iCal, none of the notes went with it. Thanks!
Daniel

Daniel, You missed the point. Read the whole post and you'll see that boxhead was acknowledging the notes to which you refer in iCal, all boxhead was saying was that notes in Entourage does not equal notes in iCal.

Multi ID's want to share contacts, calendar & notes, but need individual ID's for others

Family has multiple iOS and OSX devices all sharing a common Apple ID for iTunes, and we have individual ID's for Message and FaceTime. We all want to share contacts, calendars, notes, reminders and the Find My device feature via Cloud, but found that when we use the shared iTunes ID we all show up as the same person in Air Drop (and possibly other apps too). Is there a way to individualize the devices without loosing the ability to share the desired info? I've searched with no luck. Thank you!

If she created her own iCloud account by going to System Preferences>iCloud on her Mac and signing in with her Apple ID, you could privately share your calendars with each other with read and write access as explained here: http://help.apple.com/icloud/#/mm6b1a9479.
Contacts would be more difficult to share. To access your contacts, she would need to sign into your account and enable contact syncing. However, when she does this, her conacts would be merged with yours. A better solution would probably be to create a Gmail account, import your contacts to the account, and have her add the Gmail account to her Mac and enable contact syncing. This would isolate just the contacts and would not merge hers with yours. If you want to do this, you would need to download your iCloud contacts as a vCard (see http://support.apple.com/kb/PH3606), import the vCard to Gmail (https://support.google.com/mail/answer/183711?hl=en), then add the Gmail account to her Mac in System Preferences>Internet Accounts (Mail,Contacts,Calendars)>Add Account>Google, then check Contacts.

Issue with Calendar not syncing with iPhone 3g

Issue with Calendar not syncing with iPhone 3g.
Solution
Create backup of your entire mailbox before starting (THIS IS IMPORTANT)
Create offline folder (.pst file) Check windows help on how to do this for your version.
Open folders view on Outlook
Right click on Calendar in tree view and 'copy to' offline .pst folder
Go back to main calendar view and delete all entries in your calendar.
Create simple cal entry and sync test with iphone
If this works then start dragging cal entries back from the offline folder into the main calendar then sync after each step....
I moved events in this order
-Yearly recurrences (ie Birthdays)
- Monthly recurrences
- weekly recurrences
- Daily recurrences
All appointments from the beginning of this year >> to the end of time!
If all these sync then the issue is with an older cal item and you have to decide if you actually need these in you current calendar.
I chose to leave these in the offline cal and if i need access them from there.
If at any point the sync fails then you know you have a corrupt cal entry in the block you just transferred. Move the offending items back into the offline folder and try again in smaller chunks until you identify the offending items and delete them and manually recreate them in your real calendar.
Also smart to run the inbox (.pst /.ost ) repair tools for your OS/Outlook version.
Fixed so far
XP Pro / Outlook 2008
XP Pro /Outlook 2003

I just updated the firmware to iPhone 2.0.1 and the syncing works great both ways.

Getting "Could not Import Universe" error while trying to refresh a Report

Hi,
When we are trying to refresh a report in ZABO in production environment, we are getting an error "Could not import universe".
We are able to import all other universes and refresh all other reports thru ZABO.
Even these reports that are dependent on this universe are getting refreshed in Infoview and Full client. We are continuously facing this issue in ZABO.
We tried the following steps but it did not fix the problem.
1) Go to Tools -> Universes; Select the Universe to be imported and click on "Import" - Result: An error stating "Cannot find Universe".
Click on "Refresh" button and then on "Import" again.
Still the same error " Cannot find Universe"
2) Click on "Data manager" after opening the report. Go to 'Definition' tab -> click on "..." - Result: "Cannot find Universe" error.
3) Go to C:\Documents and Settings\<user name>\Application Data\Business Objects\Business Objects 6.0\lsi\
Take a backup of .rkey and .lsi files of our gateway server and delete them from that location.Then relogin Infoview and ZABO.
4)Go to Internet Options -> Temporary File Settings -> View Objects.
Delete RptViewerAX class and ZaboCheckandRunControl class and relogin infoview and ZABO.
5) Tried creating a new Document based on that Universe.
6)Publish the universe with a different name and try creating a report based on that.
None of these trials worked out. Please help us to fix this issue.
Note: Our Production environment is reverse proxy enabled that has a time out set to 15 mins at webintelligence level. The Error is being observed with in 2 mins from the refresh process started.
Regards
Chaitanya

Hi,
Go to CMC, and check the path in file store where this Universe is stored.
Follow this path and check if this universe is present there.
If you have a local copy, you could open and export this by changing the name and try re-pointint one of the reports.
If it works, you could delete the original and rename it to the original Universe.

Jayendra.

Can not import Outlook 2007 .CSV or .PST files into Outlook 2013 on Win 8.1 64 bit

I have a new computer (Sony VAIO Pro 11 Ultrabook) with a brand new install of Win 8.1 - 64 bit and MS Office 2013 Professional Plus. Everything works fine EXCEPT I can not import my contacts or calendar from Outlook 2007 Win 7 - 32 bit into the
.msn folders in each case. I can open .pst files in Outlook 2013 but they open in a local file and when I copy and paste them into the Exchange ActiveSync .msn contact and calendar files so that they will sync with Outlook.com Outlook 2013 crashes.
It can't even be reopened unless the wireless is turned off, and then you have to create a new data file as a default and then delete the old account and re-establish it. I have tried using the import functions as well with both
.CSV and .PST files that were exported from Outlook 2007 and an error message stating that this is not supported comes up. I have also tried to turn on sync with my iPhone to see if the files will sync from the phone through Outlook.com and nothing happens
there either - no sync on the web and nothing at the PC. Email works fine after adding the account again etc.
None of the procedures on the forums work (open PST file in the local folder then copy/paste, drag/drop, or move the files) so please don't respond with those links. All result in crash. Does anyone at MS know what's up with their latest
and greatest SW?
Thank you for your assistance.

Import the calendar and contacts in Outlook.com. For contacts, export from Outlook as csv and import into Outlook by choosing the Other option (https://people.live.com/import/other?biciid=ImportCatalog)
You'll need to save the calendar as an ics file to import it. Select the calendar folder, the File, Save as an save as an ics.

IPhoto 8.1.2 - on a teacher's iBook: Worked flawlessly 2 weeks ago. Now it continues to lock up, it often will not import scans, I can not rotate a picture - it just flips back and forth. HELP I need to get a project out!

I created a beautiful Keepsake book a week or so ago. It worked flawlessly. Since - I've had several problems (nothing has changed on the computer/system). iPhoto will frequently lock up causing me to force quit. Other times, upon opening, it says that I don't have permission or something to open it. It often is not importing a scan saying it is an unrecognizable format (it's what I used before). When trying to rotate a photo it keeps flipping back and forth and wont stay put.
iPhoto 8.1.2
I've run Disk Utilities multiple times - fixes for about 1-2 scans/launches of iPhoto
I've restarted the computer.
I've tried to update - but can't locate a version my computer will allow me to update to.
Using an HP C3180 scanner/printer --- that is also recently not working ---- locks up, takes FOREVER to scan and then show up on the desktop.
HELP ME!!!! We're trying to get 2 books out for our students before the end of the school year.
Thanks

Sounds like your Library is corrupted to me. Simple solution: restore form your back up.
Other than that:
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

Outlook 2007 won't auto refresh the internet calendar

HI,
I subscribed a web ical with the instruction (File > Account Settings and then the Internet Calendars
Tab, then click New and enter the path)
for outlook 2007:
the new calendar could display all the events correctly after set up, but it won't update the new event anymore automatically. even I close and re-open the outlook, it still not update, the last update time is the time when set up this calendar.
for outlook 2010, i tested, it can auto update the internet calendar when open the outlook everytime.
is this the problem with outlook 2007?
(I don't want user to press F9 to refresh everytime)
and i also tried to add X-PUBLISHED-TT property in the iCal file and it seems not working also
Please help ! Thanks !

Hi
zhenyun,
Sorry for Late reply, if you are still facing same
issue then you should go for some kind of auto refresh plug-in or Add-in. After a bit search on Google, I found some of them called
“Zoho” and “Vtiger”.
As I am not much sure about this Add-in, you have to read about
its functionally first by visiting given link.
http://www.zoho.com/crm/help/outlook/using-plug-in-for-microsoft-outlook.html

Hope, this link and Plug-in will give you some relax.
Thanks

How to export contacts, calendar, notes from outlook 2013 for mac to out 2013 PC

I have been unsucessful with syncing my iPhone5 and iPad Air (both are iOS7). My MS Outllok 2013 is installed on my iMac (Maverick). My iMac is dualt booted with Windows 7 and Maverick operating systems.
I visited my local Apple store and was told that I would need to export my contacts, calendar, notes etc to a thumb drive and import to my Windows-based MS Office 2013. Well, I tried to do that but discovered when you go to export on the Mac side and option to export to .csv is not an option. The one an only option is ".olm"
How do I accomplish exporting my contacts, calendar, notes to a thumb drive and is able to import on the PC side? Not to fond of the fact that I have a brand new iMac and is unable to sync my iphone and iPad Air. This *****!!

Well, there actually is... syncing through Link to Outlook is one way.

YAHOO CALENDAR NOT SYNCING WITH IOS5

After upgrading to IOS5, I cannot get my phone to sync with Yahoo's calendar. The e-mail and contacts are fine, but I've tried every which way I can think of, including using the cloud, and can not get it to work. It was working fine with the old operating system.

This is a problem with Yahoo! Not with your phone or settings. I've been waiting for them to sort this out but decided to switch over to the Google calander instead of putting my life on hold. If you want to do this set up a gmail account for a calander. Go to your yahoo calander on line. Click on your calander title (eg. Bill's calander) then select edit calander export it as an iCal file to your desktop. Go back to google calendar and import the file you saved on the desktop. Your calander will now transfer to google. You will need to edit your all day events (google calander will assume they run from midnight to midnight) but once you have done this set up calander sync on your iPhone via gmail, dump the calander sync from yahoo and your up and syncing over the air again.

Photos have been found in the iPhoto Library folder that were not imported

Whenever I start iPhoto, I get an error that says:
5 Photos have been found in the iPhoto Library folder that were not imported. Would you like to import them now?
http://www.fredmccann.com/error.png
If I say no, the dialog goes away but you get it the next time you start iphoto. If I say yes, then iphoto tries to import something (I don't know what) and hangs. I've let it run for two hours and nothing ever gets imported. What's worse is that every time I try to let it import, it increments the number of pictures it thinks is missing. The first time it said 3 photos. I let it attempt an import and it froze. The next start it claimed there were 4. It's up to 5 now and I've figured out that letting it try to import whatever it thinks is missing is a bad idea.
Has anyone seen this problem before? Any suggestions?
iBook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.8)

booleanman:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. This Apple KB document may have the solution to your problem: Unimported photos found in Library when iPhoto is launched.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.

ITunes 10 Will not Import CDs

I just discovered that iTunes 10 will not import audio CDs. Once you insert the CD and iTunes launches, the CD disappears from the desktop. It is not there in the finder window nor in the iTunes window. This occured on all three Macs I tried it on and occurred with about four different audio CDs.
Apple Technical Support people duplicated the problem on their Macs and have referred this to engineering. If you plan on importing audio CDs in the near future I suggest not installing iTunes 10 now.

FDF file opening in Internet Explorer--not in Adobe Acrobat Professional XI

Good morning!
I have created a form in Acrobat Professional XI and have a submit button that emails that data back as an .fdf file. This is working as it should.
However, on some of the returned emails, the .fdf file is opening in Internet Explorer--not in the associated file in Acrobat Professional XI.
Is this the default? Is there a way that I can specify that it always opens in Acrobat?
I looked on line, and found where you have to associate that type of file with Acrobat
I have Windows XP
in My Computer--in Tools, Folder Options, File Types, I have where FDF files are associated with Adobe Acrobat.
Are there other changes that need to be made?
We have a work-around--we can import the file data into the form--just takes a little longer.
I tested this before I posted the form online, and it worked perfect. Now that it is online, we are seeing some snags...
As always--Thank you for your help!

Thank you for your quick response!
no--it is an fdf file. Has an .fdf extension.
One difference that I have noticed that the file that is opening correctly (in acrobat) was sent from a gmail account. The file that is opening in internet explorer was filled out in Adobe Reader XI from an outlook email.
This is the window that appears when the file is opened.
On the Tools--the only items that are accessible from this screen is the AddOnTools--not all the tools sets.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!
