Does Office365 EWS provides Push Notification service for Contacts and Calendar Events?

Even though there are REST API's for performing PUSH and PULL operations for Office365(online), I am still looking the old EWS approach where in I want to subscribe for PUSH notification service for Contacts, Calendars and Mail Boxes.
Can any one suggest if there is a way to achieve this.

I posted an answer in your Stack Overflow post.

How do you turn on location services for the Photos app?

I reset my location services and I need to reactivate the location services for those apps I want to use this function. I have turned on location services for all other apps, including CAMERA, but I cannot figure out how to turn it back on for PHOTOS (Camera Roll). This option did appear when I did the new iPhone5 setup, but I cannot get it back. And PHOTOS is not listed in the apps shown under the Location Services setting page. I set my wife's phone up too and the PHOTOS app is showing on her phones Location Services setting page. Help please.

Hi There
I had the same problem and actually I found out that in Location Services you need to Turn On the option for CAMERA, as there is no photos icon.
Cheers

Trying to turn on location services for running app, but all app names greyed out and won't change?

Hi all
Would really appreciate a hand. I'm wanting to track my running using an app which uses GPS to follow my route. The app told me I needed to turn on location services for that app through settings > general > location settings. I can see the names of all the apps there (some set to on, some set to off) going through the privacy menu but everything is greyed out. How do I turn it on?
Thanks in advance

yep, unfortunately can't reset without the passcode either.
With regards to doing a restore, do you mean:
open itunes on my computer
click on my device on the left
go to the device summary
click restore
it then asks if i want to back up before i restore (to which i say no)
then it asks me if i'm sure I want to restore to factory settings and that all of me media and data will be erased and replaced with the newest version ( to which I say yes)
then it takes about 90 mins to do this but when I look at my phone, everything is exactly the same.
Am I missing something? Obviously I'm technologically challenged, but I HAVE to get to the bottom of this!

Service nodes are greyed out

I am trying to create a cluster between my i5 iMac and my MBP.
I am following the instructions in the manual but when i get the the last part, after creating a cluster where I am supposed to drag service nodes in from the bottom of the Apple Qadministrator panel I can't do it because the services nodes are greyed out (see image). Any thoughts? Thanks all!

Hi - I eventually figured this one out. Took a while!
In the dialog where you set up the original 'service nodes' on the client machines (where you go Apple QMaster > Share this computer) there is a checkbox 'Require this service to only be used in Managed Clusters'. It seemed bad to be so I didn't check it. Nothing in the instructions says to. But you must.
Once you do this, the service lines all magically go black, and you can drag them by their header up to the box.
It then all worked fine for me, but only for jobs loaded via compressor.
So far no-one has confirmed the bug I noted that jobs I enter into compressor and send to a cluster work reliably, but this does not happen when from within FCPX I try to do the Export > Send to Compressor and choose a cluster.
If you could let me know how this goes I'd be grateful.
Chris.
PS - I think at this stage that just about no-one in the whole world is actually trying to do any of this. Must just be us two. :-)

Outlook 2011 on MAC constantly asks for exchange password

Hi All,
i've gone through posts related to the topic but have not been able to figure out a related response that i can understand.
i'm running outlook 2011 on macbook air / OS Mavericks 9.4.
When i put in my exchange server settings, it connects, prompts asking to allow auto discover settings. i click yes, it downloads emails then abruptly asks for username and password non-stop. If i click cancel then outlook disconnects.
My company is running a hosted exchange server (2010) on something called "rackspace". My IT admin is not provided access to the server itself but rather to a limited control panel which is primarily of no use. He accessed my profile
with this control panel and downloaded outlook 2011 under my profile along with profile configuration tool on rackspace. Nothing seems to work.
When the IT admin chatted with the guys at rackspace, they had no clue what was causing the problem.
i have now installed windows 8.1 pro and outlook 2013 on the MAC via VMWARE virtual machine. Outlook does work, asks for the password a few times during the day but after entering credentials multiple times - continues to work.
I'm now desperate to figure out how to get outlook 2011 / exchange emails to work on the MAC.
Hope someone can help me arrive at a solution.
Thanks in advance.
kind Regards
Azhar

Hi,
According to your description, your account works properl on Outlook for Windows but prompt credentials on Outlook for MAC. If I misundertand your meaning, please feel free to let me know.
If yes, I recomemnd you try to access your account on other Outlook for Mac client or check if other Outlook for Mac users come across the same issue. If yes, I recommend you contact with your admin and check if there is something wrong with your EWS virtual
directory. Because, Outlook for MAC will contact the EWS virtual directly, which is different from the Outlook for Windows clients.
If you have any question, please feel free to let me know.
Thanks,

How do I turn off location services for Facebook in ios6

'Best for video' greyed out in displays prefs

I finally got my macbook(blackbook running 10.5.8) hooked up to my lcd tv (i have been using my old eMac for this a while) & I'm fooling around with the settings to optimize performance & for some reason the 'Best for video' is greyed out in System prefs/Displays but the overscan function works(both in extended desktop mode & in video mirroring mode. I have always used this function on my eMac (OS X 10.3.9) without any problems. For now I'm using the apple mini dvi to video with an Svideo cable until i can afford to go either the hdmi or vga route, but I'd like to optimize this at least..anybody have a clue why 'Best for video' would be greyed out & how to fix this? could this be because of the Intel GMA 950 Gpu chipset in this generation of macbooks? I have posted to a few forums in the last few days with no answers so far...Anybody?

I wouldn't worry too much about that setting. I believe all it ever did was set up a difference between blanking and black level, sometimes called "pedestal" in TV/video terminology. It's no big deal. You are probably correct that the GMA950 doesn't support it, so it's grayed out.

TS3899 Custom Domain of Gmail account(google app for business) greyed out(disabled) in iOS7 mail for no reason.

Dear guys,
I have a free/standard version of google app for business with @simmonstaiwan.com.tw as our domain. One of our user's email account one day suddenly cannot access her email account that was already setup in iOS 7 mail app. Only her company gmail acct grey out, her other personal email accounts are working just fine.
First, I thought it was her iPhone5's issue. Therefore I tried to remove the email account and re-added it back. No work. So I thought maybe it's the custome domain gmail account issue. So, I added her email account to my iPhone4s with iOS7 with correct account name and password. Still not working, the account added successful and is enable, but I just cannot click into or onto that account and see any emails. That account name just greyed out for no reason.
So, I grab an iPad with iOS6 on it and added that account onto the machine. It worked!! Looks like that email account(gmail) only worked on iOS6 device but not iOS7. May I know maybe what really caused this to occur?
Any comments or suggestions or thoughts are very welcome and will be helpful for me to debug.
Best Regards,
Jay Lin

You set it up, and you failed to distinguish between the SMTP servers or assign the correct one to your copy of Mail (it doesn't actually know which is which, you need to inform it)
Open Mail>Preferences>Accounts (NOT Mail>Accounts) and go down to the SMTP server list, choose the correct server for each account then check the box that says 'Use Only This Server' for each account.
This is not automatic, you get to choose and if you don't then this will result.
Remove the non functional ones.

Photoshop CC Save for Web Greyed out

After the last Creative Cloud Photoshop update my Photoshop CC 64 bit save for web is greyed out and I can no longer save as a png. Using Windows 7
How can I correct this.
thanks,
Buddy

I have the same problem. Save for web grayed out no matter what. Also photoshop denies opening any png file, also the png format sometimes doesn't even appear in Save as.
I can import png by choosing Open As and selecting Camera Raw. But then I can't save as png again. QC slacking at Adobe or what? Never experienced these kinds of difficulties with earlier versions. Might just as well brush off my old CS4 masters collection.
Will try a reinstall although I frankly don't have the time to wait for the endless download.

Turn off the screen saver is greyed out in Presentation Settings

Hi,
We are using Windows 7, and want to allow laptop users the ability to "turn off the screen saver" when they are running presentations. However, this option is greyed out and the box is not selectable.
We have the usual screen saver group policies, i.e. enable screen saver, Prevent changing the screen saver, screen saver timeout, and force specific screen saver. I have tried to Disable all these apart from Enable screen saver, since if I disable this then
it says users cannot change screen saver options, so I left this one as enabled.
However, the "Turn off the screen saver" box is still greyed out. Does anyone know which group policy setting will enable this option?
Also, is there a way to keep the screen saver settings and also be able to use Presentation Settings, so that the screen saver does not come on and lock the machine in mid presentation?
I've seen some sites mention utilities that run in the background and simulate mouse clicks, but we're not allowed to run these kind of utilities, and no forums seem to be able to provide an answer to this problem.
Thxs.
Jaz

Hi,
>>i.e. enable screen saver, Prevent changing the screen saver, screen saver timeout, and force specific screen saver. I have tried to Disable all these apart from
Enable screen saver,
Before going further, please make sure that the group policy settings were applied correctly. We can run cmd command
gpresult/v or gpresult/z on clients to collect group policy to check this.
Besides, if the issue persists, we can try setting all these settings to
Not Configured.
>>Also, is there a way to keep the screen saver settings and also be able to use Presentation Settings, so that the screen saver does not come on and lock the machine
in mid presentation?
Based on the description, it is not easy to do this. However, we can reduce the effect of screen saver by choosing to not enable
Password protect the screen saver, and not set the setting
On resume, display logon screen on Screen Saver Settings dialogue box. Besides, we need to not let our power plan settings lock out the computer within a short time.

HT1338 HELP my speakers won't turn on and the volume is greyed out!

iTunes randomly crashed... hard.
I hard rebooted my computer, and now my speakers won't play any sounds.
when I press the volume keys, the logo for speakers is greyed out, and there is a circle with slash to indicate not allowed.
My volume bar in the menu bar is greyed out as well.
What in the name of all things holy is wrong with it and how can I fix it?

I have gone into the sound settings, and my options for output are the internal speakers, and the audio aggregate device, neither of them work.
I have also tried plugging in and pullin out headphones to no effect, and whenever there is headphones inside the jack, the same lack of volume/ volume options happens.
I even tried resetting the special Rama by restarting and holding command+ alt + r + p, and. It made the startup spud, and nothing else.
If someone could help me, I have a gig in a week, and this is not something I really have the time to deal with.
Thanks.

Turn off wireless Syncing for Contacts

Blackberry Desktop software will not sync, (via Outlook 2010) claiming that the wireless tab is activated for the Contacts on my blackberry 9700. This has been turned off, phone restarted via a cold restart, yet I still cannot sync the contacts. All other syncs, calendar, Memo, Tasks sync fine.

I have a 9800 and I was trying to sync my contacts and I had the exact same problem. It was really frustrating but I finally figured it out. I don't know all the details.. I just know how it worked for me. From the homescreen click contacts. Once contacts is open, hit the menu button and click options. Contacts Options will pop up and for me there were 3 options at the top ( Contact Display and Actions, Recent Activites, and AT&T Address Book) then a gray divider line that says "Contact Lists". Under that divider line was my personal email address. I clicked my personal email address and a second window pops up that has THE CHECKBOX.. the one the instructions refer to (THE needle in the haystack). I unchecked that box and magically in desktop manager, after hitting the "configure settings button" it worked. Hope this helps! believe me i know how frustrating it is. The instructions in desktop manager should be more precise!
