Problems Setting Alerts on iCal with Yosemite

I am having problems setting alerts on iCal. Generally, I set for reminders at 1 day ahead, and then 2 hours ahead. When I enter the first alert everything is fine, and then on the second, the alerts switch places so that the one day before alert occurs as the second alert, and the 2 hours before as the first alert. Is there something I am missing? It is purely frustrating. Using Mac Book Pro, running Yosemite 10.10.1. Thanks!

First, verify you're using Calendar and not iCal, which was deprecated a long time ago.
Then, update OS X. 10.10.2 is the current release.
Using Calendar, I can't duplicate the problem, but perhaps I am misunderstanding your description of it. If you would kindly provide really simple step-by-step instructions, I'll try again and let you know what I observe. It could very well be a bug.

Alerts in iCal with a CalDAV Account

The alerts in my iCal when setting an appointment in my CalDAV account, don't appear.
If I set an event in my iCloud calendar the reminder will set in automatically as configured in preferences. But if I create an event in iCal under my CalDAV account then that event automatically erases the alert and I need to set the alert manually from every event, even though I have configured that every event has an alert.
My CalDAV account is a gmail account.

The second script is working but if I need to change the link it will not allow me to edit or delete it in iCal on my desktop. The only way to edit it is to use the online iCal in me.com.
And the worst problem is that the url does not show up on my iPhone iCal. The iPhone version of iCal has limited features. So if I'm away from the office on my iPhone I still have the problem of having no link to my iCal appointment. I still end up having to use both iCal and Contacts as separate Apps.
I still dont understand why Apple wouldnt make these 2 Apps work together! It seems so obvious! thanks anyway.

Only a single calendar alert per event with yosemite

Anyone using Apple Calendar with an exchange server? Because since upgrading to Yosemite I can only set a single alert for any event on my (work) MS exchange calendar. Which is insane - why am I not able to set an alert for 1 week/1 day/1 hour before an event, and why has this functionality disappeared in the upgrade from Mavericks to Yosemite? Apple?? Hello???
Using a mid-2014 macbook pro retina, for my sins.

"Sync All Calendars" was checked, but it still didn't sync all calendars. I unchecked "All", checked one calendar, and clicked "Apply". Then I rechecked "All" and clicked "Apply". Now all the calendars sync correctly. Buggy.
Thank you for your suggestion; it sent me in the right direction.

Problems setting up 2way SSL with option Client certs requested Not Enfor

Hi,
Iam having problems trying to set up 2 way SSL with the option "Clients Certs Requested But Not Enforced". I am using DefaultIdentityAsserter with my own implementation of UserNameMapper. And I have the login-config set to CLIENT-CERT in web.xml. I have tested this setup and it works when I have "Client Certs Requested and Enforced" but when I change it to "Requested and not enforced" it gives an 401 unauthorized exception.
Any help with this will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Praveena.

Hi Peter,
I'm afraid not, I turned to Apple support forums, followed their advice for troubleshooting Mac Mail (obviously not relevant to you using Outlook) but It involved scanning ports checking firewalls etc, all of this was clear and I just cannot see the problem.
I even got one of the Livechat BC guys to look into it, by setting up a dummy email address on the client's account, I think he was rather intrigued, but I'm not sure he's had much luck as he still hasn't got back to and that was over 20 hours ago.
Can your client receive emails? I can only get my client's account receiving emails, when I try to send an email I just keep receiving an message telling me that it cannot connect to smtp!
According to the BC fact sheet for sending and receiving emails: "By Default, email software will set the SMTP port to 25, which is the standard port for the smtp protocol. However our mail service has two alternative ports available that you can send through. 8025 or 587.
However it's not blocked and those port settings didn't work either.
The Apple fact sheet made mention to firewall settings possibly also blocking, but it's not relevant to me using my version of OS.
Good luck, and please repost if you get any further.
I am now just looking for a reason that my client's mail WONT work on Mac Mail, just so I can sound professional when I tell them the answer is "no".

Can't set alarm in ical with email. tells me open address book but can't get anything to happen

using version 4.0 I was able to just a few days ago set an alarm in Ical using my email address, but now i can not. I open alarm and click on email and it tells me to open address book and select my card and email. I can open the address book and find my card and email but i don't know where to go from here.. not sure what has happened over the last couple of days for it not to work. any idea's how to get this working again.

Ron,
Open Address Book, find your card and make sure that you choose Card>Make This My Card.
If that is unsuccessful, delete and recreate your card, making sure to once again choose "Make This My Card."

Problems setting up Airport Extreme with RCA Modem

Can't seem to get wireless working with my Airport Extreme. I have an RCA Modem (DHG535-2) through Comcast. I can get internet through Airport via ethernet, but only when the AEBS is in "Bridge" mode. I have tried unplugging, rebooting, etc., but nothing. The most common error message I'm getting is that the AEBS doesn't have a valid IP address. I'm pretty sure I should be selecting Use DHCP, but I'm not sure whether I need Share IP address, Distribute or Bridge. Also, when I connect via the ethernet, it looks like the IP address changes every time I reset the connection. Is this normal? I don't believe I have a unique IP address or else Comcast probably would have told me.
I've also tried resetting the AEBS to no avail. The modem does not have a typical reset button, but rather one called "REBOOT EMTA", which has kept me away from pushing it, ha! I'm very disappointed with the AEBS. I hardly ever have issues with Apple products. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Would hate to have to replace the Airport with my old blue Linksys router.

I'm not at home so I can't look at my own setup, but for my cable modem, I also have an RCA Modem (about two years old). I have it set to just get the IP address automatically, which it did the first time I plug in an Airport Express to it. I just upgraded to a Time Capsule, and all I had to do was turn the modem off and on, and it automatically works.
I would start over and try again.
Also, to reset my Airport Express to factory settings, it has a small button on the bottom that I just hit (with a tip of a pen) for five seconds and it resets. I would think the AEBS has something like that?
Good luck!

Problem setting up APEX 4 with WebLogic and Oracle XE

I'm am trying to install and test Application Express 4 (latest version) on a brand new installation of Oracle WebLogic Server and Oracle XE.
I have followed the Installation Guide for APEX and have successfully installed all tables and scripts into my Oracle XE schema and am able to connect to the Application Express Workspace login page (http://localhost:8080/apex) but am not able to log in. All styles and images are missing.
I have followed the steps in the Application Express Listener Guide to install the Listener to my WebLogic deployments and have my i.war and apex.war files deployed but these apparently are not working. When I go to my WebLogic server and view the /apex/ListenerConfigure page I can see the page but get an HTTP 404 "Page Not Found" error and appears to be looking for the WLS's apex/apex directory.
Note: My Oracle XE / APEX setup is on a separate server than my WebLogic server.
Also, I see the APEX Listener file (apex-confix.xml) from the install zip file but I don't believe it is being used anywhere, as the documentation never told me what to do with it.
Any help would be awesome. Let me know what I can provide that I haven't. Thanks!

Thank you, I was able to use what you said as well as this information here: Installing Apex 4 on Oracle XE: Almost there, but no cigar yet!
Thank you for the help :)

Problem opening original iPhoto files with Yosemite

On my iMac I have Yosemite. iPhoto works but iPhoto Original apps in Applications will not open. Told to update but I have and iPhoto is now
9.6 Earlier apps still do not open. This is the message I always get. Any fix for this? Thanks in advance.

Ok I went to the location and found this:
mac/library/application support/adobe/plug-ins/cs3/file formats/dng_cameraraw_4-6_091708.dmg
It turns out that it was here all along - I put in camera raw as two words and not one when I asked the finder and I put the exact name of the camera raw update so you can see it.
I must still be doing something wrong as its still not reading the NEFs from either my Nikon D700 or the NEFs from a D200 that I had before I switched to the D700.
I will go and check the path again - I do not know what else to do.

Problems setting up remote speakers with Airport Express

I have an airport express hooked up with powered speakers via a mini pin stereo connector/rca connectors. I have checked "Enable Airplay" in the Airport Utility configuration for this AE, which is my ONLY wifi device and functions as my router as well. In iTunes, there is NO speaker selection tab on the bottom right of the iTunes window. I am using iTunes 10, latest version, and the Airport Utility software is up to date. The base station is an 802.11g. I believe I have tried everything. Correct answer anyone?

Temporarily, try plugging a pair of headphones into the audio jack on the Express to simulate speakers.
Restart the entire network.
Same error message when you try this?

Problem setting up ovi suite with N86

I've just downloaded the latest v of Ovi suite and installed it on my PC, but when I try to connect my phone (N86) I get a message:
"an error occured while copying file ccdcmb.sys
cannot copy file to destination directory
click retry to retry the operation or click cancel to"
when i click cancel i get a message stating:
"do you want to continue setup without copying the file"
i haven't.
when i started the setup, i got to teh screen asking whether i wanted to connect via usb, bluetooth etc. or skip. usb was automatically highlighted. at that point i connected my phone via usb before clicking 'next', but from the wording on the following screen i gather that i should have clicked 'next' first and then connected.
so....
1) how do i fix the ccdcmb.sys issue please? from other comments on ccdcmb.sys in the forum, am i correct in thinking i need to uninstall everything and start again?
2) could someone recommend to the guys who write the installation screens that it is made clear to users whether they should connect before clicking 'next' or after
3) also to the guys who write the screens, please finish the last line of the first error message
as an aside, earlier this month i tried to install an earlier version of ovi. that time the software wouldn't even install on my pc, giving an error code 9508.
my pc is running fully updated xp pro.
thanks.

Hi, and yep.
Device:
S/W v 21.006
S/W v date 24-12-2009
Custom version 21.006.54.1
Custom version date 24-12-2009
Language set 001
Model N86 8MP
Type RM-484
Latest update Not updated
Ovi:
Nokia Ovi Suite 2.1.1.1
PC Connectivity Solution 10.6.2.0
Connectivity Cable Driver 7.1.27.0
Nokia Ovi Suite Software Updater 2010.6.0.60359
Maps Service API 3.0.38.0
Nokia mPlatform 2.6.86
Ovi Desktop Sync Engine 1.1.0.82
Operating system:
Microsoft Windows XP 32-bit Edition, Service Pack 3
Language: English
An odd thing about the phone is that I actually did run the s/w update at the end of Jan or start of Feb and it reported as successful. So beats me why it now states 'not updated'. I ran this update soon after I got the phone, after I successfully installed a previous v of Ovi. I had to restore my HDD soon after this, which is why I was trying to install Ovi again this week.
Anyway, any help much appreciated

I have a new company and I am running everything on my Mac(s). I would like to set up my iCal to send calendar requests from my company address. Right now it is sending through iCloud which is not the email that I want to be sending the calendar requests.

I have built the business website using WordPress. I have BlueHost as my email client and everything is working fine. I am now faced with a problem setting up my iCal appointments. Does anyone have a work-around? Right now my iCloud (gMail address) is what is sending the requests.

I don't remember in 10.4.11, but Parental Controls did allow OKing Mail or not in 10.5.8...
BTW, 10.5.8 can be installed on slower Macs, I have it on a 450 MHz G4...
Leopard requirements/10.5.x...
    * Mac computer with an Intel, PowerPC G5, or PowerPC G4 (867MHz or faster) processor
minimum system requirements
    * 512MB of memory (I say 1.5GB for PPC at least, 2-3GB minimum for IntelMacs)
    * DVD drive for installation
    * 9GB of available disk space (I say 30GB at least)
Classic/OS9 Apps no longer supported.
Trouble is Apple no longer sells it, check eBay & such for the Retail version, not the Gray Discs...
http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_nkw=mac+os+x+leopard+retail+10.5
There are workarounds if the 867MHz CPU is the only hangup...
