Sharing a calendar to a group

We just upgraded to Mavericks Server, and I was delighted that it accepted a group name as a sharing recipient for a Calendar; however, it doesn't actually send invitations to the people in the group. In fact, as far as I can tell, it doesn't do anything at all.
Does anyone know if this is supposed to work?

Anyone know if this is supposed to work? Seems weird that it auto-completes any group, but doesn't actually send invites. Maybe it's just yet another thing that doesn't work properly in OS X Server?

  • Notifications from a shared mailbox calendar to a group of people

    HI
    When a member of staff books a meeting . They add meeting room support as an attendee of the meeting if they need IT assistance .
    I would like the meeting room support to be a shared mailbox or calendar that sends notifications to a group of people when a meeting is going to start as if it was in my calendar .
    The problem is at the moment we have to accept all meetings to get that notification , so my presence and other members of the groups is always set to busy
    We are using Outlook  2010 . I read somewhere that was a new feature of 2010 and wasn't a feature of 2007 . Can somebody just clarify that this is possible and how best to do it
    Thanks
    MM

    Hi,
    There is no such build-in feature in Outlook. As you mentioned, you can accept a meeting and then you will get the notification, this is how it works.

  • Shared Outlook Calendar - help!

    Hi.
    I have a shared outlook calendar in outlook 2010.  I'd like to allow a small group of people read/write access, then a larger group to have read only access, and couldn't figure out how to set that up.  I was able to grant the read/write access
    to the smaller group, but then the larger group couldn't see the details of the meetings ect.
    Is there a way to do this?
    Thank you.

    Sounds like you need to grant the larger group read access with "full details".  Article below has good step by step instructions:

  • Private sharing of calendars within MobileMe?

    I understand that it is not possible to password protect a published iCal calendar (or at least I think that is right -- if not, that would solve my problem!)
    Is it possible to somehow share viewing (not necessarily editing) of calendars within a mobileme family pack? Via a password protected shared folder on the iDisk?
    My wife and I would like to be able to occasionally view each other's calendars but there are items on my calendar (like client names on meetings) that are relatively confidential.
    I'm sure I'm not the only one who would like to limit sharing of calendars... does someone know of a way?
    Thanks.

    Hmmm... I posted the above here because the Apple Help Chat person told me the above wasn't possible.
    I just found "Publishing a password-protected iCal calendar to iDisk" on the apple website (article HT2071) via a better google search at http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2071
    This looks like it would work within a family group though wouldn't necessarily work with someone you were unwilling to share passwords with...

  • How to set up iOS calendar app with shared Google Calendar data

    At work (in our small office) I've been given access to the shared Google Calendar that has our work schedule. It was set up using this page (click on Share an existing calendar):
    https://support.google.com/calendar/answer/37082
    The question I have is how to set it up to work with iOS calendar app on my iPhone?

    "currently there is no shared group calendar support."
    Well, not really. You hinted at it with: "set up a group wiki."
    Go into Workgroup Manager and set up an Open Directory group. Add people to it.
    Each client must then go into iCal --> Preferences --> Accounts and add an account. The name and password entered must be the same as that added to the group, Kerberos must be unchecked, and the account URL will be like (fill in the blanks properly):
    http://<your domain name here>:8008/principals/groups/<your group name here>/
    Now each properly logged in user of that group can make changes to the shared group calendar, without any "hacks" like making dummy users and delegation.
    However, I am getting a notifier: "Request Error: Accesss to <event name> in <your group name here> in account <your group name here> is not permitted." But that seems to be a lie, since multiple members of the group can make changes and others can see the changes.
    Oh yea, make sure you have a functioning DNS with valid reverse lookup.

  • Cannot turn off Event Alerts for shared Google calendars in iOS8

    I am using a Google Apps account for my calendars and through this have access to several shared calendars.
    When I go into the Calendar app in iOS8, I then press the 'Calendars' button at the bottom of my screen, then I am shown all my iCloud calendars in one group then all the calendars from the one Google Apps account together in the next section.
    The iCloud calendars (Home, Work, Family) all have a red next to them, which when I press it, I am able to scroll to the bottom of that screen and switch off 'Event Alerts' under 'Notifications'.
    But there are no marks next to any of the Google Apps calendars.
    This means that all of my shared calendars will give me notifications all the time, and I can’t switch them off.
    Is there any way to turn off event alerts/ notifications for specific shared calendars?
    Many thanks!

    I have iPhone 6 with iOS 8.1.3, and this is the solution that's working for me so far. However, I had to use the Calendar app on my Mac OS X (Yosemite) - not sure if there is another option for PC. Basically, I added the shared Google calendar to iCloud and told Google not to sync the shared calendar to my iPhone, so the shared calendar now shows up under the iCloud list of calendars and not the Google list (and thus the option to turn off alerts). Note: the shared calendars I'm using are read-only, so I don't know how well this would work if you need to edit events from iPhone. I hope this helps, and if anyone has a better solution, please share!
    1. Turn on iCloud calendars on iPhone and Mac.
    2. In browser, open the shared Google calendar settings and copy the iCal calendar address URL.
    3. In Mac OS X Calendar app, subscribe to the shared Google calendar. File > New Calendar Subscription > paste shared Google calendar URL > click Subscribe
    4. Set Location to iCloud. I checked Ignore Alerts because I also didn't want them on my Mac.
    5. The shared calendar should now be listed on your iPhone calendars in the iCloud section with the red i.
    6. Press the red i and scroll to the bottom and switch off Event Alerts.
    7. Remove the shared calendar from the Google list by going to https://www.google.com/calendar/syncselect and unchecking the shared calendars.

  • How can I allow multiple users to edit a single shared iCal calendar?

    Is it possible to allow multiple users to edit a single shared iCal calendar? I also want to provide different permissions to those users. Is this possible through .MAC? Is it possible on Mac OSX Server?

    I would like 2 agenda synced through .Mac but it does not work.
    I have 2 computers and 2 laptops. A very simple agenda with 3 calenders. Myself my partner and the office calender. I want to publish my calender and that of my partner. The office calender I would like to sync so that we can change the office calender at any location.
    I set up sync only for iCall and have a .Mac account. When I change anything on any of the calenders in iCall nothing happens on any of my other locations. Even though the locations are registered as synced. I can see the sync wheel turning but at the end of it the calenders are not synced.
    At this moment I fully understand the publish and unpublished calenders but have no clue what so ever what syncing does for iCall. There seems to be no functionality to it. It does not transport any calender info over .Mac. There is no visable check to see what is happening and the process of syncing is not transperent. Lots of my friends go to me for advise on Apple issues but as far as sync wether iCall or Addressbook I always tell them sync does not work and I have no clue why others have it working. I haven't met any people here in Holland either that got in working. I suppose with iCall you have to get third party software to share calenders editable calenders. Really hopeless situation, wish Apple would just have a manual stating what sync can do and what it can not. Hours wasted on this issue trying to get it to work.
    Hope anyone here can help out.

  • How do I get the shared Family calendar to show up with Family Sharing enabled?

    Hi,
    I've enabled Family Sharing and added a couple of my kids, but none of us are seeing a new shared "Family' calendar. I'm just seeing my original calendar list, unchanged since enabling family sharing. I've tried signing out of iCloud and back in as the usual fix for these things There's no Family calendar anywhere: on my phone, on my laptop or on iCloud.com. Is there anything I have to do or can do to get to show up?
    Thanks

  • How can I add a SHARED Outlook Calendar to my iPhone?

    I have Outlook for work. I have my personal calendar on there, along with my work calendar which is shared with my boss. When I sync my IPhone to Exchange, my personal calendar from Outlook syncs to my phone. The Shared calendar does not appear, however.
    I don't want to use an app (I have OWA and hate it) and I want the shared cal to appear on my calendar in my phone. I also need to do so without adding my boss's email account to my phone. Help!

    Depending on the version of Exchange in your environment you need to verify with your Exchange Admin that iCal publishing is enabled (Exchange 2010 or 2013) then you could send an email with a link to the shared calendar then subscribe to
    it.  Below is a link on how send the link once it's enabled and one for your Exchange Admin on how to enable iCal.
    Send email to shared calendar:

  • TS4118 How do I stop sharing my calendar with someone I now share it with?

    I do not know how to remove someone from sharing on of my calendars on my iphone 4.

    Stop sharing a calendar
    Click the Share button to the right of the calendar’s name.
    Do one or both of the following:
    Deselect the checkbox to the left of Private Calendar.
    Deselect the checkbox to the left of Public Calendar.
    Click OK, then click Stop Sharing in the dialog that appears.
    A private calendar becomes unavailable to all participants. A public calendar is removed from its URL and becomes unavailable.

  • How do I stop sharing my Calendar?

    How do I stop sharing my Calendar?
    I have been sharing my Calendar with someone but I no longer wish to, how do I stop sharing it with them? I've looked through the application's menus but nothing jumps out at me directing me to a way to stop sharing.

    Link ( http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2695 ) only loads a blank page.
    [ http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2695
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2691?viewlocale=en_US ]
    I found this iCloud: Add or remove participants from a shared calendar but what happens on my Calendar when I follow the instructions is not the same as the KB article shows. My Calendar version is 7.0 (1841.1) on Mavericks 10.9.5
    What Apple support page says:
    This is what I get. From my only iCloud Calendar 'Me' (step 1) to 'Name of Shared with Party' to remove (step 2) which is grayed out, and not selectable, in the next step (step 3). Nowhere  does it say Remove Person.

  • My wife and I have separate have separate user accounts on our IMac.  We have separate Apple IDs for iTunes.  How can we use iCloud on our separate iPhones without sharing contacts, calendars, etc.

    My wife and I have separate have separate user accounts on our IMac.  We have separate Apple IDs for iTunes.  How can we use iCloud on our separate iPhones without sharing contacts, calendars, etc.

    If have separate iCloud accounts and want to keep your all your iCloud data separate, you can create separate user accounts for each of you, then sign into your individual iCloud account within your user account.
    If you want to just add both iCloud calendars on your Mac, you can sign into one iCloud account in System Preferences>iCloud, then add the second account in System Preferences>Internet Accounts>iCloud and only check Calendars with this second account.

  • ICal Shared Exchange Calendar Stopped Working

    I have been successfully accessing the Johns Hopkins Exchange servers for mail, address book, and calendar services on my Mac for months. In iCal I had also been accessing a shared Exchange calendar for many months. About 1-2 months ago, I lost access to this shared calendar in iCal only. Since I can still access it from Outlook on a PC, it seems something must have changed on my Mac. I still have access to my own exchange calendar in iCal, but when I go to re-setup the shared calendar in the account set up window, it shows that the shard calendar exists in the list of available calendars, but the indicator spins and spins without ever revealing my delegate privileges. Did Apple change something that is blocking access to my delegate privileges in iCal?
    Thanks for any help,
    Bill Convey

    I would suggest to go into the options for that exchange server on your Pre and reset the calendar preference (that is: change it to not sync the calendar, save those settings, then switch it to 'on' again).
    After doing this, perform the following action:
    -Open your Contacts App
    -Select Preferences & Accounts from the dropdown menu
    -Scroll to the bottom of that page and select "Sync Now".
    This should resync all data on all Accounts on your phone.
    Please note: It may take up to 10 minutes to sync all data from all Accounts. If you do not see all synced information after 10 minutes, perform a soft reset (shutdown your phone and restart it).

  • Shared Exchange Calendar in iPad

    Hello, I am dealing this issue pretty long time but with no result. I was able to add shared calendars of my colleagues in Macbook Calendar. But now I need to add it also to iPad (or iPhone). Like it or not but for example our CEO uses just iPad, no PC.
    So I need to figure our how to open shared exchange calendar in iPad.
    Thank you for your tips.

    I'm not sure if it's possible to open the full OWA from an iPad...perhaps somebody else knows, but in the version which shows on my iPad, that functionality is not allowed.
    There is no way to add a shared calendar/mailbox to an iDevice.
