Replying to an invitation with a message??

Does anyone know if it's possible to decline an event invitation with a message? I recently switched my office over to Macs and it's driving all of us nuts that we can't decline (or be declined) an invitation with some sort of reason why!
This is especially maddening to my secretary who gets decline after decline with absolutely no input as to why! What is she supposed to do? Just keep guessing with new invitations until she hits the time slot that works for someone?
I realize that a separate email could be sent for this purpose, but what a pain! Any input is greatly appreciated.

Do you have Pages?

Or MS Word 2008/2011?

If not Might look into NeoOffice...

Or Open Office...

There are older versions for 10.4.11 available...

Replying to ical invitations with comments (notes)

How can I reply to iCal invitations but with the addition of notes ?
I can do this on my iPhone / iPad but I cannot see any possibility on the OSX calendar.
I am using iOS 6 and OSX 10.8.2

Plus, you can't accept an invitation with adding an attachment...

How to respond to invitations with text

in outlook it's possible to reply to an invitation witha comment, such as 'i can't do that time but will try to duck out', or 'please offer another time slot'. i don't see the ability to do that via mail and ical. does anyone know if it's possible?
Same question about 'counterpropose' as in outlook one can offer another time when invited to a meeting. does that feature exist in ical?

Hi,
See my post here about iCal Reply Checker:

It allows you to edit the invitation response email in Mail.

With per-message S/MIME enabled, the default action when replying to an encrypted message is to send that reply unencrypted. Causes users to accidentally send originally encrypted content, back unencrypted.

This seems counter-intuitive, are we doing something wrong or is this working as expected?
When we have per-message S/MIME enabled on an iOS 8 device. Everything works as expected and we have the ability to select when you are sending an email whether that email should be encrypted or not, but i've noticed that, when you receive an email encrypted with your S/MIME cert, read that email on your iOS8 device with per-message S/MIME enabled, and reply to, or forward, that message, the default action is to send that reply, or forward, unencrypted UNLESS you manually re-tap the little padlock button to re-encrypt the message.
This seems broken. I would imagine we would want the default action when replying or forwarding that encrypted message to be an encrypted reply or forward so as to keep the encryption intact. I can't think of a time when you would actually want to send an unencrypted reply to an encrypted message, as doing so would send the originally encrypted content back, as unencrypted text therefore negating the point of ever encrypting it in the first place.
I know we can set the iOS device to by default send ALL email as encrypted, but that's overkill. Our users probably only get 1 or 2 encrypted emails a week, but when they do get those encrypted email we would want their replies and forwards to those email to also remain encrypted, and not open up the chance of one of these users forgetting to re-check the padlock button thus accidentally sending the originally encrypted content, out as an unencrypted message.
Is this working as expected or are we doing something wrong?

Hi,
Thank you for your clarification.
Yes, it seems you have installed all the updates for the Outlook.
“Testing on a good computer” is a method to narrow down whether the cause is related a specific computer.
For debugging tool, I think we can take a look at:
1. RPCTrace log
2. Process Monitor
For RPCTrace log, it’s not that easy to capture. You must firstly replace some Outlook dll files before you can capture the log. Even more, the dll files can vary if the Outlook
SP versions are different. So, It’s recommend to contact a Microsoft Support to capture and analyze the trace log.
Thanks,

JMS Replier loops after finished with message

I'm having some issues on my Requestor-Replier setup.
First of all, everything seems to work fine,,,,,besides when the Requestor is not set up to fetch the replier's response right away; message is suppose to stay for a little while on the reply-queue.
I got 2 setups for functionality:_
1) Requestor sends a xml file (nothing of importance to my question) to jms/RequestQueue
The Replier sends a pdf to jms/ReplyQueue
The Requestor picks up the pdf, and everything seems to be as it should
2) Requestor sends a xml file (nothing of importance to my question) to jms/RequestQueue
The Replier sends a pdf to jms/ReplyQueue
The Requestor is not suppose to pick up the reply, since another program that starts a few seconds/minutes later
is suppose to do that job
As for part 2,,,something strange happens.
When the Replier's onMessage receives a message from Requestor and starts sending back a new message, it seems to loop inside the MessageListener over and over agian UNTIL i start the program that are suppose to pick up the reply.
How is this?
Thought the Replier would be done when the message through the onMessage was delivered??
Since,,,when the program that are suppose to pick up the message is startet, the message is delivered, and the looping inside onMessage is stopped.
The weird part is,,,that I can send several messages to the jms/RequestQueue for the Replier, and it delivers what I want when calling the program to fetch the messages from the jms/ReplyQueue.
When EACH and every message is collected from the jms/ReplyQueue is fetched, then the onMessage looping is stopped.
Providing the onMessage-code for the Replier-class:_
public void run(String mqServer, String mqServerPort, String connectionFact, String reqQueue)
     setUpContext(mqServer,mqServerPort);
     Object connFact = lookup(connectionFact);
     System.out.print("Lookup OK: " + connFact.toString());
     queueConnectionFactory      = (QueueConnectionFactory) connFact;

When replying to an email with � in the message it sends blank but when forwarding it changes to and goes threw fine

I dont understand what Thunderbird is doing. This happens when replying to a quote with a ® within the email. Forwarding it keeps it as a ® but just hitting reply it changes to � and sends a blank email.

You see the � (&#xfffd;) when an 8 bit encoding like ISO-8859-1 is selected.<br />
It would normally be sufficient to select Unicode (UTF-8) to see the real character.

Phone is really slow with text messages

hi, im new here and lookin for a little help. iv had the phone for a few months and now my curve freezes when i try to open a text message. also when i press send it freezes up. i dont have to restart it or anything but it takes about 7 seconds to regain itself. this only happens with text messages. emails work fine, facebook notifications work fine. i send and receive quite a bit of texts, emails, and facebook notifications and i have 14 applications. i did the update/ recovery& reboot thing on my computer. i have wifi preferred as my connection preference and tmobile is my mobile network. any tips? or do i have to just live with this?
EDIT: i searched around on the forum a little bit and resolved the issue. i didnt know that it was only happening when i texted one person because i mostly only text this one person. but i guess i had to go to my phone book and text this person thru that instead of just replying. after that i can open and reply with no problem. sorry for takin up space on the forum. im new lol

Sometimes I think I don't get told about a message until I unlock my phone and when I do I get a notification and a text tone as I unlock and it can be off a conversation I was having 10/15 minutes ago.

I "reply"ed to an e-mail message. The next time when I chose to write a new message and type the first letter of the person I replied to earlier, that name and e-mail address appears as a choice included in a pop up list of my contacts.

The persons name is not in my contacts and I would like to delete it from popping up. Do you know how I can do this?

The Mail app on the iPad/iPhone/iPod Touch does have an option to clear previous recipients. You can learn to live with it. But if you want to get rid of it, the only way to remove these cached email addresses from the Mail application is restoring the iPhone/iPod Touch as a new phone/iPod. If you restore from backup, the cache is also restored.
This article shows you the screens you will see during the restore: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414

Line with audio messages for Asha 501.

Line app updated with Audio messages feature and with Recently sent stickers. The app is better than previous version.

Asha 501 isn't supporter by Nokia suite, so you can't install apps from PC like any other Nokia phone.
You aren't able to access Nokia store via Wifi as well?. I would suggest a phone settings reset, you *will* lose data stored on the phone so backup before you decide to reset it.

The way I deal with error message 1417, 1418 and 1428

Firstly, sorry for my poor English, but I would like to share with you my experience, and hope that it may helps you.
Since the release and update of iTunes 7, I have not faced any problem, but I heard a lot of articles from this forum about the errors 1417, 1418, 1428 and 50 etc. I could not make any suggestion and find a solution about it, all I could do is to copy some threads from some successful cases mentioned on this forum.
Until yesterday, I finally received a 4th Gen 20GB iPod (around 2 years old)from a friend and asked me whether I could fix it for him, which has been left untouched as a paper-weight for almost 2 months.
I tried to turn it on, and the screen was completed blank and the device looked dead. Before doing anything I prepared the following:-
1. A window based PC
2. A Mac computer
3. An USB iPod cable
4. A Firewire iPod cable
5. An iPod AC charger
As the iPod was previously formatted on a PC, therefore I tried to plug it with a PC via USB cable, it did not response and not able to get recognized by the PC. I ejected the iPod and connected with an AC charger, after a few minutes, I did a Reset for the iPod
How to reset iPod
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=61705
The iPod showed an Apple sign, it stuck there for almost a minute, the screen then showed a battery with an exclamation mark sign, and after a minute, the iPod turned off itself. I was sure that the iPod carried very low battery, and could not be charged by connecting it with any computer (both Mac and PC).
I decided to let it have a charge with an AC charger for a bit longer, after 10 minute I did the Reset again, this time a sign of folder with exclamation mark showed up after the Apple sign, and again could not get recognized by a computer.
I changed my mind, and put the iPod into disk mode
Putting iPod into disk mode
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93651
Instead of connecting with a PC, I plug it with my Mac using a Firewire cable, it did not response, so I switched the cable to an USB, interestingly, the iPod got recognized and a window pop up indicating that the iPod needed to do a Restore. Therefore I clicked “Restore”, after a few seconds, an Error message pop-up with Error Message 1417, the sign that I have been waiting for quite sometime.
I ejected the iPod and the screen immediately showed a folder exclamation mark (a sign indicating a corrupted or a failure iPod OS). I am forced to put the iPod into disk mode again, connected with the Mac computer and open the Disk Utility
1. Open the disk utility, hope your iPod appears there (left hand side), highlight it
2. Go to Tab “Partition”, click either “Delete” or “Partition”, if fails, skip this step and go to 3
3. Go to Tab “Erase” , choose Volume Format as “MAC OS Extended (Journaled), and click Erase, again if fails, skip it and go to 4
4. Same as step 3, but open the “Security Options....” and choose “Zero Out Data” before click Erase. It will take 1 to 2 hours to complete.
5. Eject your iPod and do a Reset
6. Open the iTunes 7 and click “Restore”
It managed to complete the Restore process, and started to sync with the iTunes. However, it got stuck at the song no.238 from the total of 2000. I left it for an hour, but with no process, instead the iPod became “Hot” and the iTunes showed an Error message of 1428. I ejected the iPod from my Mac computer, the iPod’s screen turn to show the famous killer icon;“The Sad iPod“.
This time it was totally dead, even failed to put it into Disk Mode and non of the computer could recognize it. Sigh, I hated to do it but I knew that I must did the following:-
Holding the iPod in my Palm, and hitting it on a surface of a Sofa with 5 attempts.
Did not surprise me, the iPod turned on and it showed the Language Menu on the screen. So, I put it into Disk Mode and connected with my window PC.
The PC showed a sign and indicated that an USB device had been connected with it. I opened the iTunes and did a Restore there.
However, an Error Message 50 showed up, but I were not worried about it, connected it back with my Mac computer with it in Disk Mode. As expected the iTunes opened and allowed me to do a Restore there.
This time it managed to complete the process and a window of register pop up. After the completed the process, the iPod started to sync with the iTunes again, which finally managed to complete the process.
I left it connecting with the AC charger overnight. In the next morning, I switched it on and have a play with it, I am so glad as it is working like a charm.
From the above experience, I would like to share it with the user the following:-
1. It always better to charge with an ac charger instead of the computer, as when an iPod carrying with very low battery, it may not able to get charge from a computer
2. Try to connect the iPod with a computer, switching between USB and Firewire
3. Try to format an iPod with HD problem, with a different kind of computer e.g. Mac or PC, as the formats are totally different, the way it formats may able to solve the bad sectors on the HD
4. It may get better chance to get your iPod recognized, if you put it in Disk Mode
I hope the following works in your case as I did.

a pop up error message says itunes couldnt be configured
I'd like to have a closer look at that error message please.
Generate the error message again. While the error message box is open, hold down the Alt key and hit the PrtSc key. Paste the screenshot into an image file (using a program like Paint), and save the file.
Start a reply here and click the wee camera icon at the top of the reply window. Click "Choose file", browse to the image file, select the file and click "Open". Now click "Insert file" to insert the screenshot into the reply.

My Iphone 4 will not let me send an email or reply to an email. The message states it has put it in my outbox and it is rejected by the server because it does not allow relaying??? I can't seem to find an answer to fix this. Any help?

My Iphone 4 will not let me send an email or reply to an email. The message states that it has put my email in my outbox and that my server does not allow for relaying. Can anyone help with this? I have read some other answers and nothing has worked Thanks

Your email provider has blocked the standard mail port 25 for sending emails and is requiring a different port. This is to avoid mail relays that use mail clients to send spam. You need to find the port that is used by your provider for sending outgoing mail. Then change the settings in your email account on your phone to match the port. You will also have to provide some security credentials for the account.
You can also try deleting the email account from your iphone, and the adding the email account back as this will many times set the correct port for sending emails.
You could also do a Google search on the the settings for your device with your email provider. That will provide you with the proper settings.

Reply not quoting text of original message

For the past couple weeks, I have had an increasing number of messages where when I hit reply, the text of the message is not included. Same with forward. These messages always include attachments. All that gets included in the reply or forward is the attachment. Ideas?
MacBook Pro Mac OS X (10.4.6)

unfortunatley, I am having the very same problem on my power mac g5, but not on my mac book.
even before i installed hte new safari, every time i would hit reply or forward, only the original message would be included, not the most previous response. in preferences, i have checked " include all of the original text" but this doesnt help.
i then went ahead and installed the newer safari, 3.0.2 beta, based on the feedback from this board that the issue was specific to the 3.0.1 safari install. anyway, nothing has changed, still have the same issues.
the only was i can get this to include ALL of the original text is by hilighting the entire text content within the email. but this is a pain to do when responding to each and every email
any ides?????

Ref: iphone 3G. I was visiting the US last week. My iphone battery completely drained overnight. I re-charged it but ever since it has either come up with a message saying it's registering or saying I need to register it. I'm concerned that if I re-register it on itunes I'll lose all my data. I originally registered it a couple of years or so back, when it was new. Any advice much appreciated.

Thank you for quick reply. The data is still there - every so often when I switch it on, it comes up with the main icon screen, rather than the emegency calls only screen (which it does most of the time), and I can get to my contacts, photos, and so on, but it won't connect to any mobile/cell network provider, including my network here in the UK - O2.
