Sending email reminders to other people?

Hi.
I use iCal to keep a schedule that colleagues are supposed to submit their work. I'd like to have iCal automatically send them an email reminder the day before it's due, but of course iCal only allows you to send emails reminders to yourself (and I don't feel like adding an extra 13 email addresses to my VCard)...
Any workarounds or suggestions? It's driving me nuts!!

Hey guys!
I'm trying this too. I found a site earlier where someone claimed to have written an AppleScript to do this - however, the download link was dead and the page hadn't been updated in several months.
I tried John's suggestion. For some reason when I attempt a redirect, I just get a Mailer Daemon error saying the email I put in didn't exist...however if I set the rule to FORWARD the email (to the EXACT same email address) everything went through fine.
It's a band aid - but forwarding may work. Anyone else have some other ideas?

Send iCal alarms to other people's email addresses

other than adding other peoples email addresses to my card, is there a way to do this? I want to be able to send email reminders to client appointments that I have scheduled in iCal.
thanks,
bl

I'm sorry that I dont know how to do this, but, I am wanting exactly the same feature.. I'd like to be able to just type in an email address for who the reminder should be sent to. This way, if I want to sent to myself and a client, then I can set up two alarms, one the standard way (to my email) and another email alarm (at the same, or a different time) to a clients email address.
I'm wondering, if it can't be done as a standard iCal feature, maybe the user of Apple Script might do it? There's an option to Run Script as an alarm category. Selecting this brings up a file browser to select the script you want to run. So I wonder, does anyone know how this could be achieved using Script maybe?
Or failing that, is there an Add-on that's already been written to iCal? I can't seem to find one, and I'm guessing that because Ferd II has replied with an "I dont know how" answer, then perhaps there's no real solution... haha, I see Ferd II that you're a frequent and knowledgeable iCal poster in these forums!
Fingers crossed we find a solution...

Sending email reminders in OIM 11g

Hi,
I am trying to investigate on the OIM's capabilities to send email reminders on pending approval tasks. Say for example i want emails to be sent to the approver every two days to remind the approver about the pending approval task. Is OIM capable of supporting this functionality OOTB?
Any help or guidance is greatly appreciated.
Regards
Deepa

Yes
It sends reminders OOTB in 11g version. You just need to configure these in Approval Workflow.
Go to Notification Tab > Advanced

Calendar won't send email reminders since updating to Mavericks?

Since upgrading to OS Mavericks Calendar won't send email reminders.
I have been able to set them. But they don't actually send.
I have visited multiple sites and discussions and attempted the suggestions posted there but nothing seems to help. I have even contact Apple feedback, and still haven't heard back from anyone.
Just to clarify, i have attempted the following fixes:
- Adjusted email settings to ensure iCloud ermail account is properly set up
- Adjusted reminder settings in calendar to ensure the reminders should send
- ensured that "My Card" is properly set up in Contacts
I can't seem to find anything else to help? Anyone have any ideas?

I am haivng the same issue too.
According to some other posts, I deleted and readded the "Me" record in the address book. When creating a new calender entry I set it to send email. When the notification pops up it's just a normal alert and no email.
Any ideas?

TS3276 I cannot connect to my outgoing email server on my macBook pro, yet I can, for the same email account on my iPad. Also I can send emails from the other email account I have on my MacBook...really confused can anyone help?

I cannot connect to my outgoing email server on my macBook pro, yet I can, for the same email account on my iPad. Also I can send emails from the other email account I have on my MacBook...really confused can anyone help?

Sometimes deleting the account and then re-creating it can solve this issue
Write down all the information in accounts before doing this
Highlight the account on the left and click the minus button
Then click the plus button to add the new account and follow the prompts

Can ical send reminders to other people about their appointments in my ical

Hi Guys,
I understand the fact that iCal can send 'invites" when I add an appointment for someone in my calendar but is there anyway to get the "alarm" that sends me a message a set time before the event to instead send them a message just reminding them? I don't want to have to customise the message everytime, just have it send the person invited, a message saying "blah blah blah..tomorrow at 4pm" etc.
Can iCal do that or do I need to change calendar software to do that? I'm a singing teacher, by the way and want to remind people of their lessons
Many Thanks,
Gareth

Thanks. If there are other people invited to the appointment it comes up with this
So I don't want to 'move' it or cancel the original appointment. is there another way I can, for example, have my boss's appointments all come up green and mine all come up blue......

Cannot send emails that contain other asian languages

i can receive emails that contian other languages, like chinese and korean. However, well i reply emails in those languages, people only receive smybols. I try to send it to my own email address as well, I also only receive symbols, like question marks. I'm using rogers but I don't think it has anything to do with the carriers because it was okay before.

Hello Hans
The problem I have can be explained with what has happened to me just today!
I was sitting in the back garden and wrote two emails. (Normally my EE Brightbox router will allow me to use wifi in the garden so I thought it safe to send them.)
Wrong!
Because I had no wifi signal for whatever reason, the emails were sent via my network (3) and not via the EE wifi network.
3 then attempted to send them via smtp.orangehome.co.uk (specified in my mailbox setup on my phone since EE insists I use that outgoing server) and I assume that EE then refused to accept them since they did not originate from an EE user. The phone (Lumia 920) at that point froze with the 'Sycnhronising' message static on the screen. When I went to 'email setup' I got a message to tell me that there was a problem with my email setup. Whether the main problem or not, my email password had been lost and even when re-entered, I had to switch the phone off and on to stop the 'Sycnhronising' message and get access to email.
This was slightly different from previous situations - normally I get the numeric error message mentioned earlier. Even now that I have deleted the two emails from the outbox I still cannot use email until I delete and recreate my email account.
I have my own email server which I would prefer to use for outgoing mail as opposed to EE and the Lumia does not offer any facility to alter outgoing ports (as far as I an see).
Sorry if the reply is a bit wordy but I do feel that this situation deserves wider exposure as had I known earlier I would have chosen a broadband supplier who did not dictate the setting for outgoing mail server.

Yahoo calendar in iPhone won't send email reminders

When I add a calendar event from my iPhone 4s and set reminders for it, I do not get email reminders for the events. I used to reminders emailed to me even on my iPod. This started in the past week. If I add events to my Yahoo calendar from my PC, I still get the email reminders. I would really like to get the email reminders from events added to the calendar from my iPhone. Any thoughts or help would be appreciated.

I am haivng the same issue too.
According to some other posts, I deleted and readded the "Me" record in the address book. When creating a new calender entry I set it to send email. When the notification pops up it's just a normal alert and no email.

OIM 9102: Send Email Notification to other user in a task

I created a process in OIM. In this process exist a Task: Manager Process. When this task will be completed for the user that be assigned. In the Notification Tab are able to send a email notification to a Assign User, Requester User, User or User Manager. But i need to send a email notification a other user different to them, for example: juan.perez, this user is in OIM.
I have read the following documents:
1.- http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E10391_01/doc.910/e10363/promgt.htm#BCECFGEJ
2 .- How to Send an Email Notification Upon User Creation via the Admin Console [ID 780394.1]
3.- OIM: An Example of Email Notification and Configuring it With a Resource Object Provisioning [ID 457836.1]
4.- Sending an Approval Notification Email with a Link Directly to the Approval Request? [ID 748447.1]
Or exist some way to do this, through java code.
I'm using oim 9.1.0.2 BP18 running on OC4J 10.1.3.5 on AIX 6.1 64-bit clustered install with two nodes, Oracle Database 10.2.0.4 on AIX 6.1 64-bit on RAC.

Hi
You can use OIM email API to send an email from the java code. You can attach code on post creation user using entity adapter. Every time a user is created the email is triggered.
Here is the sample:
public EmailUtility(tcDataProvider dataProvider) {
          this.dataProvider = dataProvider;
          emailOper = new tcEmailNotificationUtil(dataProvider);
          System.out.println("Email API instantiated successfully...");
     public String sendEmail(String fromAddress, String toAddress, String body,
               String subject) {
          emailOper.setBody(body);
          emailOper.setFromAddress(fromAddress);
          emailOper.setSubject(subject);
          emailOper.sendEmail(toAddress);
          System.out.println("Email sent!" + subject);
          return SUCCESS;

Why does iCloud send emails from my other accounts?

I send emails from my gmail or sbcglobal account and then can't find them. in some cases the recipient does not get them.
in other cases the person swears they responded but i did not get the email.
yesterday I hit the "iCloud" email by mistake and discovered that iCloud is sending them from a .me address!
how do I disable this???
and, why does this happen in the first place?
thanks.

hi! thanks for your reply, pvonk, but I am not sending from the .me address, I am selecting the gmail or sbcglobal address from my options - but .me is sending it instead! it is defaulting to the .me address regardless of what i pick. I find this disturbing. is it something Apple is doing? thanks for any insight.

Seems like alot of people are having the same issues with being able to receive email but not send emails. Like others, I have tried re-booting, switching off, deleting account, reinstalling account but to still no avail! Does anyone else have any ideas?

Hi there - I have rebooted and turned off ipad and deleted my yahoo account and reloaded it but I still cant send messages, any other suggestions? Thanks.

Me too,
I can logon to Yahoo directly with my wife's iPad. I can then send an email to my iMac. What I cannot do is send an email directly from her iPad to me - so I consider the problem is with iOS 7.0.3. All i get is a long 'sending' session that ends with "incorrect username or Password", but that cannot be right. I have deleted and re-created the account on the iPad - cleared Safari's history and cookies. Nothing changes. It seems to be very widespread this problem and as yet nothing coming from Yahoo or Apple. This is similar to the Windows' users experiences. Pity.

Linking and then sending linked PDFs to other people

I have a PDF with 50 references at the end, I want to link the references to separate reference files, zip the files and be able to send everything to people. At the moment, if I send the files to people the linking doesn't work as the actual reference files are still sitting 'locally' on my computer. I have linked the PDF on an online site that is available to people who have a log-in, but want to be able to provide this document to 'lay people' as well. Thanks for your help

Put all the PDFs in one folder.
Make the desired links.
zip the folder and inform those to whom you email the zip that they must unzip such that the folder and its contents are there.
Be well...

HT1430 Ok, I have restarted my 4S twice now and still can't receive/send emails. Any other suggestions?

Any other suggestions?

Hi Friend,
Which kind of account you are using?
If you are using a business account （ for example [email protected]) you must set POP account info properly, filling all the blank fields (name, email address, description, password, Host Name, user's name, SMTP). Just one field blanked causes error in sending/receiving.
If you are using a default account (iCloud, Yahoo!, Hotmail...), fill all the blanck fields (Name, Email account, Password, Description） and sign in.
If not works, delete the account and sign in again
Hope it will be helpful

Use the preview and save it -
Before ordering your book preview it using this method - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1040 - and save the resulting PDF for reference - the delivered book will match it.

IPhone sends email, but from other (wrong) email address

I had three email addresses/accounts on my iPhone, one for work (Outlook exchange server) and two personal accounts through gmail. When I reply to a message on my iPhone from one account, occasionally it sends the message from another account, NOT the one in the "from" field, and randomly, not even through the "default" account. This tendency became so problematic that I deleted the 2nd gmail account from my iPhone. And what happened? Messages are STILL being sent from the deleted account address, even weeks after I deleted it (and restarted the iPhone, connected to the computer, etc). Can anyone help?

Susan,
Have you ever sent a text via email to your husband?
You would do that by addressing the email to [email protected]
He would receive your message as a text. When he replies to it, it would come to you as an email. If you husband keeps texting you through that existing thread, you'll keep getting emails.
My suggestion is to start fresh chat threads between your husband and yourself and make sure your sending them to each cell phone numbers.
Matt
