Publishing iCal from G4 (10.3.9)

I am trying to publish some calendars from my old G4 (10.3.9) using the ical Exchange, but it says bad url??? Odd thing is that when I first did this about 5 months back, it worked. Until one day it just stopped.
any ideas?

Locate the Firefox Bookmarks.html file on the G4. Make a duplicate copy. Move the copy to the iMac. Then open your prefered browser on the iMac. Under File, select Open File and open the Bookmarks.html file which opens a text-like page. Then bookmark this page.
 Cheers, Tom

Publish dates into iCal from Numbers

I am trying to publish dates from a chart in Numbers to iCal or Outlook calendar. Is this something that can be done?

Solved, I think! What you need to do is log on to your icloud account at www.icloud.com, go to the calendar screen, click the gearwheel and choose New Calendar. Create a calendar here (ie up on the iCloud) with the name you want for your imported calendar data. Then switch to iCal - you may have to quit and relaunch for the new iCloud calendar to appear (or it will probably do so automatically if you wait long enough) then import the data using File->Import->Import... When you get to the step where it asks which calendar you want to import the data into, choose the new iCloud calendar you've just created. Job done!
To be complete in my answer, I don't think you can exactly do what you want to do, at least not at present. There doesn't seem to be any way to publish a calendar to iCloud after the first time you set up iCloud on your Mac when it exports any calendar data that is on the Mac at that time. I suppose that Apple feel that the way I have described works by exporting from one calendar and importing into another, so no need to provide a way of doing it directly.

How do I publish calendars imported into iCal from a .ics file to iCloud rather than MobileMe?

Having upgraded my iPhone4 & iPad to iOS5 and my iMac to OSX 10.7.2, I have been having trouble with duplicate calendar entries. Unfortunately, having deleted all but one calendar from the iCloud web interface, I heeded the mistaken advice to disable Calendars in the iCloud preference pane on the iMac and it deleted the calendars that had been removed from iCould from the iMac as well.
A few false starts later, I was able, after disconnecting all my devices from the net, to restore my iCal calendars with TimeMachine from before the chaos started then exported them as .ics files. After rebooting and re-enabling the network to the iMac, iCloud sync purged the restored calendars from iCal again, so I imported the .ics files into iCal and published them again, but the publish options only include MobileMe or a private server, so I chose MobileMe. iCal now happily shows all my calendars on the iMac again, but the iCloud web Calendar app can't see them.
How can I get iCloud to see the published iCal calendars again?

Publishing iCal calendars for non iCal users?

Firstly I guess I should set out the ideal solution I want to acheive.
I am looking for a way to publish calendars from iCal to my hosting server which will be viewable by PC/non iCal users via a web browser. I'd have to do it via ftp as my servers do not currently support WebDav.
Currently I have managed to publish the calendars which are viewable via a browser which appear as a list of code rather than as a calendar.
Is there a way to do this using iCal or, dare I mention, another calendar/organiser software package?
PowerMac G5 2.5Ghz Dual + G4 1.67Ghz Powerbook 1Gb RAM Mac OS X (10.4.10) 20Gb 1st Generation ipod still working well!

Hello Julian,
Thanks for this. Excellent solution and pretty straight forward to set up. Wish I'd had this years ago.
Cheers again

Publish iCal calendar to local network disk?

The Misses and I would like to share calalendars in a way other than shouting out information to one another across the room. We recently purchased a Time Capsule and would like to publish our calendars to the TC harddisk. (We did this previously with another network disk we have but used a different router to configure it)
Based on our previous success at doing this, I presume we only need an ip address for the hard disk to set it up. I can't remember how we did this in the past and I don't want to use a program other than ical to do this.
I just want my calendar and her calendar to publish to the disk so that we can each subscribe to the others.
Can anyone help me with this?

There was a previous discussion that may help. Do a search for local network shareing, but expand out to all year. This may be what you need. Haven't tried it myself yet, but it looks like it may be the answer. I have the same need as you, BTW.
Re: Entering iCal from a network
Posted: Mar 22, 2008 5:51 PM in response to: Fulvio Pietramala
You need to use a product like BusySync to selectively share calendars across a network. Your present approach is guaranteed to fail, and to corrupt your event and task data.

Publish iCal Local Account Calendar on OS X Server

I'd like to publish my iCal calendar (iCal>Calendar>Publish...>Publish on: A private server) on my OS X Server 10.6.7 ().
Whenever I attempt to do this using my local account on tthe server, I get the error:
http://username@domain_name/Home.ics is not a location that supports this request.
I've tried all the obvious stuff: turning off the firewall, sanity checking the iCal service authentication settings, everything obvious. I believe that this is an authentication issue for local accounts on OS X Server. Because the server is set up as a standalone (i.e., no network accounts, all local accounts), Open Directory is turned off, and there's no Kerberos authentication that I'm aware of.
Would someone please tell me how how to publish iCal calendars of local accounts on OS X Server?

According to iCal Server Administration, OS X Server requires an Open Directory account, so you cannot publish your local account's iCal calendar.
You can, however, use iCal itself and a modification of the OS X Hint "Publish iCal calendars with local WebDAV server" to publish local account calendars.
0. Server Admin>Web>Sites Turn on the Web with an enabled host name. Make sure that WebDAV is enabled under Server Admin>Web>Sites>Options. Enable SSL with your server's certificate under Server Admin>Web>Sites>Security to ensure that your personal calendar information is SSL encrypted over the web.
1. Append this directive to the end of the file /private/etc/apache2/httpd.conf:
Include /private/etc/apache2/other/*.conf
and make sure that there's no conf file in ./other that you may not wish to load, such as httpd-userdir.conf. Move these to *.conf.original or some such if necessary.
2. Create the file /private/etc/apache2/other/httpd-webdav.conf with the contents:
# WebDAV configureation for Publishing local account iCal calendars
# Based in part on Mac OS X Hint "iPublish iCal calendars with local WebDAV server Apps"
# http://hints.macworld.com/article.php?story=20020912065811863
# copied from /etc/apache2/sites/0000_any_443_myserver.conf
# which is automatically generated by Server Admin>Web
# No need to replicate these directives here, so comment out
#<IfModule mod_dav.c>
#       DAVLockDB "/var/run/davlocks/.davlock100"
#       DAVMinTimeout 600
#</IfModule>
<IfModule mod_dav.c>
<Directory "/Library/WebServer/Documents/webdav">
    DAV On
    AuthType Digest
    AuthName 'WebDAV'
    AuthDigestFile /private/etc/apache2/httpd/.htdigest
    AuthGroupFile /dev/null
#    <LimitExcept GET HEAD OPTIONS>
      require valid-user
#    </LimitExcept>
</Directory>
</IfModule>
3. Create the apache htdigest authentication file:
$ mkdir /private/etc/apache2/httpd
$ chmod 0755 /private/etc/apache2/httpd
$ touch /private/etc/apache2/httpd/.htdigest
$ chmod 0644 /private/etc/apache2/httpd/.htdigest
$ htdigest /private/etc/apache2/httpd/.htdigest WebDAV username
Adding password for username in realm WebDAV.
New password: md5 hashed password
Re-type new password: md5 hashed password
4. Create the WebDAV directory:
$ mkdir /Library/WebServer/Documents/webdav
$ chown www:www /Library/WebServer/Documents/webdav
$ chmod 0755 /Library/WebServer/Documents/webdav
$ mkdir /Library/WebServer/Documents/webdav/iCal
$ chown www:www /Library/WebServer/Documents/webdav/iCal
$ chmod 0755 /Library/WebServer/Documents/webdav/iCal
and sanity check that the OS X Server davlocks directory /var/run/davlocks exists [it should!] and has www:www ownership with permissions 755 [it should!].
5. Sanity check your apache config files:
$ apachectl -t
should yield "Syntax OK". Then Server Admin>Web>Stop and Start to restart your web server with the new configuration.
5. Under your local account on OS X Server, iCal>Calendar>Publish... Publish on a private server with the URL:
https://osxserver/webdav/iCal
using OS X Server's local account username/password. Success will be reported with a URL of your calendar on the server.
6. Under another client account from which you wish to subscript to your OS X Server local account's Calender, iCal>Calender>Subscribe... Enter the URL on OS X Server. You will be prompted for the htdigest name/password pair you created above -- enter this, not the username/password of your local account on OS X Server. Even though you should be protecting this channel with SSL and md5, don't reuse your username/password to access the WebDAV directory you created. You will now be subscribed to your local account's iCal Calendar residing on OS X Server.

Publish iCal Calendar using Tiger Server

I've been searching for a simple way to publish iCal calendars using Tiger Server. Here is what I need to do:
I need one user to be able to publish multiple "studio schedule" calendars to the Tiger server...and I need all the regular users in the studio to be able to subscribe to it so that they can see what work they have scheduled for the day. The regular users do NOT need to be able to make changes to the calendar...they only need to see it. (and print it if needed) Only the studio manager needs to be able to see and edit the published calendar.
I called Apple support for help on this one and they told me they would have to charge me $695 just for me to be able to get help on this....which surprised me because I'm just trying to use their software to do something it is supposed to be able to do! LOL The only other suggestion he could give was for me to look to the discussion groups here for help....so here I am!
HELP!
xServe G5 Mac OS X (10.4.6) xServe G5

The first thing you need to do is set up WebDAV on the Server and share a directory. If you need instructions on how to that just follow this thread.
http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=2793917#2793917
Once you've set up a shared directory you just publish the calendar to it from within iCal.
To do that, set up a calendar, select it and then select 'Publish' under the 'Calendar' menu. In the dialog box that opens up give the calendar a name without spaces. Select 'Publish on: a Private Server'.
In the field for 'Base URL:' fill-in the complete url to the server directory you set up previously using the WebDAV instructions. For example, if you set up a directory on the server called 'calendars' and the URL of the server is www.example.com you would put in 'Base URL: http://www.example.com/calendars'.
Now enter the 'Login' name and 'Password' for an account that has access to the shared directory as you've set it up using the WebDAV instructions.
Select the other options you want to enable in the dialog box and then click on 'Publish'. Now the calendar is published and available for others to subscribe to.
Now to subscribe to the calendar, just select 'Subscribe' under the 'Calendar' menu in iCal and enter the URL for the calendar. Using the example from above you would enter 'webcal://www.example.com/calendars/StudioWork.ics' for a calendar that was named 'StudioWork'.
You can also email the URL for the published calendar by selecting it in iCal and selecting 'Send Publish Email...' under the 'Calendar' menu in iCal.

Publishing iCal Events to Twitter..?

Hello,
is there a way to publish iCal Events or a complete calendar from ical to Twitter?
I am a MobileMe User, also using Google for working with non AppleUsers.
Thanks for Helping
Bernhard

Hi,
If you were guaranteed that the format was going to be the same every time, it would be possible do this by selecting the text and using an Applescript.

Error publishing reports from BW

Hi,
I am facing some issues while publishing reports from BW system. I have taken care of all the settings mentioned in Integration Kit guide. We are using BOXI 3.1 SP3 OS:windows 2008 (64-bit)
The error that we are getting is:
"0000000001 An error occurred when retrieving the role metadata for YBW_BO_CONTENT_PUBLISHER. Returned with RFC code 18 and message: See RFC trace file or SAP system log for more details"
I have enabled the trace also, still not able to find the root cause.
Need help urgently. Thanks.
Amit Tewatia

Hi Startos,
I have matched the auth. as per the admin guide, everything is fine with the role. I have checked the trace file logs, part of which is below:
"Starting up callback server at 10.239.30.2 sapgw00 with prog-id SEGIDC8BBB5A3

No idea why it calling this IP. This is not the IP of our BW server. please suggest where to check for this.

BW - EP Connection to Publish Reports From BW

We have implemented Enterprise Portal 6, and are running BW 3.5
I have been trying set up the connection between the 2 systems, so that I can publish reports from BW to EP
SSO between EP and BW is working - I can create a BW iview, or run a BW transaction without having to sign on again to the BW server.
I have checked the RFC connection from BW to EP using transaction SM59, and it all seems to be working fine.
When I am in the Web Application Designer in BW, there appears the option to Publish to Enterprise Portal 6.0. I can see the destination that I created to point to EP, but I can't see any roles/folders etc within the portal.
I have been through all of the documents that I have found in SAPHelp on configuring the connection, but have still had no luck.
Does anyone have any suggestions? Are there some permissions that I need to set up on either BW or EP before this will work?
Thanks in advance for any assistance.
Regards
Richard

Thanks very much for your assistance!!
Deepu:
Thanks for pointing me to the note - that looks like it could be helpful - I need to talk to our basis adminstrator about a couple of things, and he is away for a couple of weeks, so this problem will probably be on hold for a bit now.
Ashwin:
Thanks - I've checked the SSO to BW, and can see all of the BW reports in the BW repository in EP. My personal folders are all set up, but are empty.
I really appreciate your help on this guys. I'll try the changes in the OSS note (but won't be able to do this for a while), and will let you know if it is successful.
Regards
Richard
PS. I'm really sorry, but I don't seem to be able to allocate points for your answers - there are no radio buttons displaying on the screen for some reason - I'll see if I can contact SDN to get this sorted out.

Failed to commit objects to server. Error while publishing reports from BW

"0000000001 Unable to commit the changes to Enterprise. Reason: Failed to commit objects to server : #Duplicate object name in the same folder."
Anyone having any solution for this. Thanks in advance.

It would be great if you could add a little info about how you solved this issue. Others might run into similar situations - I just did:-(
Thank you:-)

Invoking XML Publisher Report from PL/SQL

Hi,
I have a PL/SQL procecedure which invokes the Concurrent Request for the XML Publisher Report. This one finishes with a warning and I get 'Unable to publish output' when I try to view the output. Exact Error: "Unable to find the published output for this request "
But if I run the same report using Concurrent program, the Report executes with no error. Also the desired output is coming. I am not sure where I am doing wrong in code.
My code which invokes the XML Publisher Report (from PL/SQL package)is something like this:
declare
x boolean;
l_no_of_copies varchar2(45);
l_printername varchar2(45);
l_print_style varchar2(45);
l_result boolean;
y number;
begin
x := fnd_request.add_layout (template_appl_name => 'XXTMG', template_code => 'XXT_5001_BOL_T', template_language => 'EN', template_territory => 'US', output_format => 'XML');
l_no_of_copies := fnd_profile.VALUE ('XXTMG_SH_BOL_REPORT_NO_OF_COPIES');
l_printername := fnd_profile.VALUE ('XXTMG_SH_BOL_REPORT_PRINTER');
l_print_style := NULL; --For setting the Printer Options
l_result := fnd_request.set_print_options (l_printername, l_print_style, l_no_of_copies, TRUE, 'N');
l_result := fnd_request.add_printer (l_printername, 0);
y := fnd_request.submit_request ('XXTMG', 'XXT_5001_BOL', '', TO_CHAR (SYSDATE, 'YYYY/MM/DD HH24:MI:SS'), FALSE, 'CH-120079') ;
end;
Please let me know where I might be going wrong
Thanks

Hi Sumit,
You can try with this code:
exec dbms_application_info.set_client_info(org_id)
exec fnd_global.APPS_INITIALIZE(user_id,resp_id,appl_id);
declare
x boolean;
l_no_of_copies varchar2(45);
l_printername varchar2(45);
l_print_style varchar2(45);
l_result boolean;
y number;
begin
x := fnd_request.add_layout ('XXTMG' --template_appl_name
          ,'XXT_5001_BOL_T' --template_code
          ,'en' --template_language
     ,'US' --template_territory
     ,'XML' --output_format
if (x=TRUE) then
y := fnd_request.submit_request (
                    'XXTMG'           --application
                    ,'XXT_5001_BOL'      --program
                    ,SYSDATE          --start_time
                    ,FALSE               --sub_request
                    ,'CH-120079'          --argument1 (Program's Parameter)
if y>0 then
          dbms_output.put_line('Request ID '||y);
end if;
end if; --if (x=TRUE) then
end;
Make sure that program has only one input parameter. If program has other parameters then you can pass those parameters like argument1, argument2... etc.
Now you can see this submited request in your application using your user id. If you able to see your request in concurrent request then you can add printer parameters in this programs.
You don't need to pass all 100 parameters.
I am executing many programs/reports using this code.
Thanks

Restoring iCal from Time Machine

I accidently deleted my calendars from iCal and then my blank iCal synced to mobileme and my iPhone so I lost everything. When I try to restore my iCal from Time Machine, it initially shows all my calendars when I open iCal, then it syncs to mobileme and I get a blank iCal again.
Here's what I do:
1. Quit iCal.
2. Delete Calendar folder from Home>Library.
3. Restore Calendar folder from Time Machine using the gear icon and "Restore to ..."
Then when I open iCal it restores perfectly, then syncs to mobileme and erases again.
After talking to an apple tech, he suggested going into iCal's preferences and deleting the mac.com and trying the above steps again. That doesn't work. I even tried going into System Preferences>MobileMe>Sync>Advanced>Reset Sync Data to replace info on mobileme with sync info from my computer. That didn't work either.
What step am I missing to restore my iCal from Time Machine?

kanagashi,
You are welcome...thanks for your kind comments.
I'm still having sync issues with MobileMe though, the "On My Mac" calendars aren't syncing to MobileMe.
The "On My Mac" calendars will not sync to MobileMe. Did you complete Roger's checklist under the "Reconnect to the internet. Your MobileMe calendars will disappear as before. Now carry out the following process with each of the 'On My Mac' calendars:" paragraph?
Syncing should be possible after carrying out those steps.
