Receiving calendar events

My wife and I have new iphones(3gs-at&t) so not sure how this happened. She is an independant author and a company was setting up interview times for her. They sent her an e-mail to her gmail account that is also set up on her phone using Outlook for each day next week and now she has noticed they have shown up in her iphone calendar.
She really likes this so we're wondering what we did and what the other end did to get them there.
She has no additional apps.
Thanks for any help with this and suggested reading, etc.,
L.S.

Wow, thanks. I'll read up on it. Does this populate into the calendar because of something I did or didn't do with the iphone settings or because of gmail?
again thanks,
L.S

N9 don't receive calendar events sent form another...

Hi
I have tried to send calendar events from my E75 to my N9 but these messages are not received by my N9.
Does anyone has a solution for this?

It will be sending them as MMS, not SMS, chances are that the N9 isn't recognised by the network so that stops that feature from working.
Do they work if you email or bluetooth them instead?

Receiving a calendar event message from a third party on a BB Z10

I have a BB Z10 on the UK Vodafone network. My Z10 is set to GMT time and correctly shows that I am in the "Dublin, London" time zone. This is the GMT time zone description that all BB devices that I have ever owned have shown.
This afternoon (UK time) i received a calendar event notification from a client who I have since established was at his desk in London when he sent the message advising me of a conference call to take place next week.
The advice on the Z10 has five clear sections: "Status", "Date", a bell symbol to indicate when the reminder will sound, and a fifth symbol indicating the number on which to call in, and the PIN code.
However, and this is my serious problem, there is a third section on the advice which has a globe symbol and appears to exist to indicate where the person setting up the event was located when he/she sent the message. In the specific case of which I write, the message states "This event is displayed in local time, but was created in Reykjavik (GMT) [sic}". The actual message shows the time for the event as one hour later than the actual time that the event is scheduled to take place - in other words GMT + 2 hours - namely the time in continental Europe and Reykjavik.
I have serious issues with this:
1) Is it the real intention to indicate where the sender of the message was located when the message was sent?
2) if yes, this is a serious breach of privacy
3) if yes, the location is wrong, as the person who sent me the message has confirmed that he was at his desk in London
4) if no what is the purpose in indicating where "the message was created" (BB's words - not mine)
5) the indicated time of the event is wrong - it has assumed a different time zone than that in which I and the sender are located.
Has anyone else encountered this problem and what has BB got to say about it???
Thanks

I received the e-mail notification on Microsift Outlook from a third party (i.e. not someone within my own organisation).
The same invite on both my lap-top computer and my BB 9900 Bold did not have any mention about the sender being in Iceland (or anywhere else!) and showed the correct time and time-zone for the agreed meeting - namely, 8,30am on Friday the 19th April.
I confirm that my Z10 is set to the "Dublin, London (+0)" time zone and is currently showing the correct British Summer Time of 16.31. The device switched automatically to British Summer Time on Sunday 31st March.
I would welcome your comments.
In every other respect (apart from the infamous Outlook USB synching issue about which I am sure you have heard more than enough!!), the Z10 is an outstanding device and deserves to be the device which at long last wipes the smile off the faces of those equine rumps in Cupertino, California!!
I am expecting the roll-out of the Q10 in the UK in a couple of weeks - please??!!
Thanks again for your help and assistance

Outlook 2013 clients receiving duplicate acceptance emails from same attendee for same calendar event

Environment:
Office 2013 Suite
Windows 7
Few of our employees setup a calendar event on their calendar and invited about 6-10 attendees. When few attendees have replied with an acceptance of the event and the others have yet to reply. 5 of the group that have replied is somehow sending
the same acceptance reply repeatedly. This has been going on for several days now and the timing is seemingly random. Obviously the person that sent the acceptance reply is not manually doing it repeatedly. That would be too easy of a solution:)
Can someone please help me troubleshoot this problem.
Thanks.

Hi,
Does this issue happen to all calendar events? If so, we may try to create a new event using OWA and then check if you can reproduce the issue.
Do you have any delegates set for these affected users?
Do the employees have their calendars sync with any mobile devices? If so, we may disable the sync to see if the issue will be fixed.
In addition, we may try to enable Outlook troubleshooting logging on the calendar owner's computer and delegate computer, then we can check the logging data to see if we can find if the responses are sent by a delegate or third-party software. To enable
Outlook troubleshooting logging, go to File > Options > Advanced, scroll to the bottom of the dialog and select the "Enable troubleshooting logging" option. You'll need to restart your Outlook to trigger the logging. For more information about
Outlook troubleshooting logging, please refer:

If you have trouble reading the log file, you can share it to us via sending it to
GBSD TN Office Information Collection [email protected] The subject of the message should be the thread link.

How can I forward a calendar event that I did not create?

I can't see a way to forward a calendar event, when I am not the event creator. How is this done on an iPhone or iPad?

There is an app that allows this - called Forward My Meeting. It allows you to forward any meeting in your calendar from the iPhone or iPad.

How can I automatically create calendar events using text from a Pages document?

Hello,
I'm looking for a way that I can automatically have calendar events created, by extracting dates and times from a table within a Pages document I have saved on my Mac.
Currently, I record my working hours/dates on a Pages document in table format, so that I can record and ensure I receive payment for all hours I work.
After finding out which shifts I have for the week, I insert the day, date, start time and end time (for each shift), into a table within a Pages document.
I'm wondering if there is any way - such as through Automator, Apple Scripts, etc. - that I can then have the Calendar app automatically create events from that data - including the date, start and end times for each shift?
Also, if possible, is there a way to set each event to automatically alert me at a chosen time (1 day, 2 days, etc.) beforehand?
Here is an example of the layout of my document table:
Date

If anyone can help with this question, that would be greatly appreaciated, as then I could have my calendar automatically create and sync my work shifts across to my iPhone, iPad and Mac.
Thanks in advance,
John.

I totally agree with you.
Where are the fixes for a long string of bugs, glitches and user issues?
Looking at the list of new "features" for the next OSX, Maverick (what a dumb name!), all I am seeing is Apple ripping off other peoples' ideas, something it swinges others mercilessly for.
There is not one thing in Maverick that I don't already have, only more so, with 3rd party add-ons.
Apple seems bereft of ideas now and I am totally mystified what it is doing with all that money and employees it has accumulated.

I have just synced phone/ipad and PC and now have triple contacts and calendar events....Any suggestions?

I have just synced to iCloud with the new iOS 5 operating system and now all my calendar events and contacts have duplicated. Any suggestions?

I have already tried this but still the same. I have also tried un-pairing my speakers and re-pairing! Still get broken playback at times. This even happens when I am close to the bluetooth receiver.

Calendar event link to Mail does not update

This is interesting. In calendar when I open an event that was created from an email that I had received, there is a link in the event that says. "Show in Mail…". When I click on that link (in the calendar event), Mail becomes the active application and the email that the calendar event is based on shows up in a new window in Mail. However, if I then open another calendar even and click on the "Show in Mail…" link, the email from the first event's link come up again. Something broken??
Anyone else have this issue and any possible fix??
Thanks in advance,
DJ

Calendar Events Deleting

Hey all,
We use Novell Groupwise for exchange. One of the people at our organization has been having issues since he got the phone. Apparently, several events from his calendar are being deleted in the span of a minute on occasion. When I go in his GroupWise account, I see them in his trash. So, if we monitor it we can move them back to calendar, but it's a bit of a pain. (He says e-mails also disappear. There are several unread e-mails in his trash.)
I don't think he is accidentally deleting them because it happens so quickly for so many messages.
Anyone experienced this problem with the Revolution? We have 100+ phones using exchange and we haven't experienced this with another account.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

MNIT, thank you for your post and I would like to help you with this issue. I have not seen any settings on the Revolution to cause this or seen others report this issue. Are you receiving your email at work via Outlook? If so, check Outlook settings to verify Outlook is not removing the messages from the server after being read or after a certain amount of time. Here are the steps. They will vary depending on which version of Outlook you have.
If you are still having issues after this, try removing the Groupwise account completely from the phone. Try adding calendar events on his computer and send test emails to verify they don't delete. Then re-add the account to the phone.
I hope this helps!

Shared Calendar Event Notifications

My wife and I are both using the new iPhone 6 and utilize iCloud to share our Family calendar. I am the owner on the account and I share it with both her and my daughter. My wife is set to view and edit the calendar, where my daughter is set only to view. When I make a change or addition to the calendar, either from my phone, iPad, or PC, my wife does not get a notification of the activity. When she makes a change or addition, I do get a notification. I get a pop up notification, as well as a message in my calendar in box. I checked both phones against each other last night and they are set up exactly the same as far as shared calendar notifications and other settings through the settings menu. Any ideas on where else I can check. I would like for her to receive the same notifications I get.
Thanks!

as far as i understand iCal it is on the "receivers/subscribers" side to deal with email-updates (and not on the "senders/changers" side):
snippet from my Re: How do you stop receiving notifications about updated calendar events? (there is a screenshot as well):
to NOT get email notification about updated events from a shared calendar you subscribed to you have to uncheck "events affect availability" in that calendars "info" (mac os X.7 and X.8: iCal —> calendars dropdown —> right click on the subscribed calendar —> choose "get info" from the context-menu —> uncheck "events affect availability")

Calendar events not being sent immediately.....finding out when I created an event.

I recently created a calendar event on my iPhone 5. I invited an attendee who received the event too late (approximately 36 hours later). Is there a way to verify and view when I created the event? Also, is this a common problem? Why would this have happened? It definitely makes me not trust using the calendar app for creating and sending event invites. It is CRITICAL that I view when I created the event. Thanks in advance for any help or advice.

Hi Dave,
From your description, the mailbox you use for conference is not a special room mailbox. It is a standard user mailbox. I think that is the problem, it should be configured as a room type and not a user mailbox.
If I have misunderstood your concern, please feel free to let me know.
What's more, about how to create and manage room mailbox, here are some helpful threads for your reference.

Dissapearing emails with calendar events

Whenever I receive an email containing a Calendar Event invitation the email just deletes itself after accepting the invitation. The event is correctly added to the Calendar but the email message dissapears and I cannot access the message from a different device (e.g. office PC). It is annoying!

You may want to check your calendar events settings and make sure the to and from date are just for that one day and also make sure your reminder is set for one time event and not daily on your device as well as your repetition is set to one time event.

Setting 1 April Calendar Events

Today I started receiving errors messages when setting new calendar events in iPhone iOs 5.0.1
"Cannot Save Event" with mix of "Event Does Not Belong to That Event Store" or "No Calendar Has Been Set".
After doing a number of searches I tried many of the suggested fixes including:
change default calendar
reboot the phone (power cycle)
reset the phone (home + power cycle)
close multi tasked items including Calendar
turn icloud off/on
Each worked for the one or two events, but then I started to notice that everytime I tried doing a calendar event for Sun 1 Apr, the error re-occured.
I tested specifically again for this, entering an event for today (4th March) and then in the future (1st May), and finally 1st April. Error re-appeared as soon as I started using the 1st April.
Thinking back to when the error first started appearing, and it was a 1 April date where I had an event starting 31st March and ending 1st April, and I wanted to adjust the end date back to 31st March.
Have managed to reset phone and have stayed clear of using 1 April for any events.

Okay, cancel the emergency. Figured out that if I turn off Calendars in iCloud (on the iPad), choose Delete Calendars on This Device, then turn it back on, everything returns to normal.

Not Receiving Calendar Accept Replies from Internet emails

I have GroupWise 2012 running on a dedicated Linux Enterprise Server 10 SP4 server.
I had gotten a call from one of my GroupWise email users and stated that when he sends a Calendar event to customers NOT on our system, he doesn't get any replies.
I have verified that the settings are correct under Tools, Options..., Send, Appointment.
When he sends a Calendar event to other users on our GroupWise mail system, he gets the replies.
I tested this using my personal hotmail account. I sent a Calendar (1-hour non-recurring) event from my GroupWise to my hotmail account and the hotmail account
received the Calendar event.
I accepted it, (and it added it to my hotmail calendar), and I sent a reply back, and it never got to my GroupWise account.
I looked at the Sent Items Properties for that and even after a few hours it still shows as "Response Pending".
I verified with my user that his Sent Items shows that for all users (except his account of course).
When I send a "regular" email from my hotmail account to my GroupWise account, I receive it just fine.
I checked the GWIA log file and I see the following lines:
11:49:28 EF5E MSG 1635904 Sender: [email protected]
11:49:28 EF5E MSG 1635904 Recipient: [email protected]
11:49:28 EF5E Successful login with client/server access: (our groupwise_dns_name and port)
(down a couple lines is this):
11:49:38 EF5E MSG 1635904 Queuing to MTA
As far as GroupWise 2012, is functioning as it should, (besides this).
I also went into C1 and insured that GWIA has Enable iCal Service checked.
We have GWAVA as our filtering/spam solution and I checked that to insure those replies aren't being stopped.
They aren't being blocked, via the Quarantine screen or the log files, that I can see.
And, I figure, since I see the connection in the GWIA log file, they aren't.(?)
Under the Properties of the Sent Item, it shows:
Send Options:
Auto Delete: No
Concealed Subject: No
Expiration Date: None
Notify Recipients: Yes
Priority: Standard
Reply requested by None
Security: Standard
Send Mail Receipt when Accepted
Send Mail Receipt when Deleted
To Be Delivered: Immediate
Is there a solution to fix this?
Thanks!
