Text in body of Calendar items disappears

Users have complained of this and now it has happened to me:
Appointment in Calendar contains text, after 'something happens', the Appointment is opened and the body is now blank
However, if I search for the item, the text is partially visible in the Results Pane
I have disabled add-ins and started Outlook in safe mode but the text is still missing
Outlook 2010 Exchange 2013
Has anyone any ideas what could be causing this?

Hi
As per the information and details provided by you, text in the body of Calendar items disappears, Please follow theses steps: -
Message body disappearing in Outlook is a known issue of two commonly used antivirus software: AVG and NOD32. It happens like this: -
A message arrives in the Exchange mailbox and synchronizes with Outlook.
The AVG or NOD32 add-in, which is added to Outlook automatically if you have the software installed, deletes the message body.
The message is then synchronized with the server, so it is also synchronized with OWA and with wireless devices.
To prevent this from happening you need to remove the AVG or NOD32 add-in in Outlook.
Also, there are other Outlook issues which could be caused by antivirus add-ins. For example, when sending messages they can come back undeliverable with no header.
To remove an add-in:
Outlook 2010: File > Options > Add-ins
In the
Manage field, choose COM add-ins and then click on
Go.
Highlight an add-in and click
Remove.
I hope this information will be helpful for you.
Thanks and regards

Contacts and calendar items disappear when exchange server is off

Hi All
I've been having this problem for a few weeks now and it's most frustrating. My iphone is setup to sync over the air to our corporate exchange server. It seems that when the server is down for repair/patching ALL my contacts and calendar items disappear from my iphone. This doesn't seem to happen if the phone is out of signal?
I know that I can sync directly with Outlook, however this would then mean that the phone is only updated when synced with my laptop at work. If I sync both over the air AND with Outlook, I get duplicates of everything in my calendar.
I'm not restoring my iphone to factory defaults to get rid of the duplicates and go back to over the air sync only.
Does anyone have any ideas on how I can get calendar and contacts to work "offline" when the exchange server is down?
Main PC is running Windows 7 and exchange is 2007. This problem is only recent, I think in the last month of two. Nothing has changed other than the last few firmware updates from Apple.

hi, cheers for the info. That would make sense, however how come when I'm out of signal and not connected to wifi, the data doesn't also disappear as that too would render the server "unavailable".
Is there a way to make the iphone keep a copy of the data much the same as "offline mode" in Outlook where you can still browse your email, calendar and contacts when the server is offline, and it picks up where it left off when the server is available again?
I appreciate this may not be a "problem" as such, but is frustrating as all my contacts and calendar live in Outlook and I can't function without them

Calendar items disappear after upgrade to 10.5.2.

through software actualisation I have downloaded the lastet update of mac os X (10.5.2). After restarting my mac book all calender items from january 2008 backward and march forward are no longer shown. I can not find out , what to do .
Has anybody an idea?

reply to self:
1. reinstalled the 10.5.2 combo update as suggested elsewhere here.
2. Made a new calendar, new event, quit ical, restarted ical, the event was still here. surprise.
3. double-clicked the whole .icbu backup that I had made when ical appeared already broken (i.e. no events whatsoever had shown in any of the calendars in any of the weekly or other views, but search still found some files, and the backup had 15 MB so it wasnt nothing). Import took not even five minutes, and ical is now back.
so what helped was to
1. make that backup of ical even if it appears not to work,
2. delete all calendars (from within ical, not manually),
3. delete all recommended .plist and cache files as recommended in these "help, empty calendar" threads and restart ical to create new ones,
4. reinstall 10.5.2 combo update,
5. double-click the .icbu file.
I dont know what from this list can be omitted.
good luck.

Iphone calendar items disappeared!

Last week, everything on my iphone 4s calendar disappeared - past events, future events, and events synced from my email calendar. I was able to re-sync to my email, which got those things back, but everything I had directly entered into the phone's calendar (which was almost everything important) seems to be completely gone. And no, I hadn't synced my calendar to icloud.
Anyone know of a way to get it back? I've already missed an appointment that I had forgotten about.

I understand about the backing up, thanks. I had thought, every time I synced the apps on my phone, when it said it was backing up my iPhone, it really WAS backing up my iPhone. My question was about only restoring the calendar instead of the whole thing.
It is strange that you have to use iTunes (as I've now discovered) to sync the calendar with iCal.
Here's another strange thing: I have now synced it with iCal, and my appointments still have not shown up on the phone, but they DO now show up in iCal. I'm wondering, if I sync it again, will they show up on the phone? I suppose I could try it--couldn't hurt, could it?

Set up iCloud with iPhone and iMac, and all my calendar items disappeared from my iPhone. Help?

I had a full calendar on my iPhone4 before I activated iCloud on my iMac and iPhone. All that's left on the iPhone calendar are a few birthdays. Can someone please tell me how to sync my iMac with my iPhone via iCloud (boy, that's a lot of "i's")??

If you are going to use iCloud then stop using iTunes. Set up 2 user accounts on your PC, one for you and one for her, in each account enter the correct iCloud credentials (ie: yours for you and hers for her), do not sync the items that are on iCloud with iTunes, it will make a mess.

After installing Mountain Lion on my iMac, calendar items disappeared.

My iPhone, iPad and MBP still have the calendar contents. The one item that still appears on the calendar is a holiday schedule I downloaded from another site a few years ago. I checked the preferences on the iMac and "Calendar" is checked for iCloud. Thanks for any help/suggestions!

Strange as it seems and without having resolved my problem, I decided to enter an appointment fo tomorrow. When I double-clicked tomorrow's date on the calendar to enter the information, like magic, the other appointments appeared.
Therefore, double-clicking a date on the calendar was the answer or it was a magnificent coincidence of timing!

Why do new event items disappear from calendar after a few seconds

Suddenly,new event items disappear from calendar a few seconds (7-30) after creation. This has never been a problem before, and I have used iCal for years. All my old events remain but as of today, when I try to add an event, it stays on the screen for a few seconds, then disappears. I tried entering the events on my iPhone and then syncing, but they went away on my phone as well. Does anyone have an idea of what's happening? Is my iCal out of memory?

I had success with this method:
1) make a backup of iCal's database (-> file menu)
2) revert to that same backup ( " " )

E52 New calendar items blank text - error / bug

E52 New calendar items error
S/W: 051.018
In Calendar when adding a New meeting in the (Enter subject) box if adding more than one line of text the previous line of text disapears. This makes it very difficult to enter longer subjects in calendar events/meetings.
Nokia please fix? any advice?
Cheers
If you find posts helpful hit the big green box to the left with the star in it... cheers

same for me! text is only in the head of the meeting visible. the textbox color is white - on a white background, makes it invisible. lol. nice business-phone. there are so many problems with this phone. nobody can help me - i really regret buying it.
hardware is good, software is catastrophic

Items on my calendar are disappearing

Dates on my IPad Calendar are disappearing and can't be found!

Do you sync to iTUnes? In iTunes (and you can only see this with your device connected and the 'info' tab chosen) you can tell it how far back to sync events. The default used to be 30 days, which meant your device only keeps a month's worth of history around. But you can set it for longer.

EWS API - Impersonating to update a calendar item created by any other user than a service account, raise an error "Access is denied. Check credentials and try again."

Hi,
I am new to using EWS managed APIs.
Following is the issue:
1. I am using a service account e.g. [email protected]. This user is a global administrator and also has ApplicationImpersonation role assigned. (Sign into Online Office 365 account -> Admin -> select "Exchange" tab- > select Permissions
on the left panel -> create an impersonation role -> assign ApplicationImpersonation in Roles: and [email protected] in Members: -> Click on save)
2. Create a calendar item by other user for e.g. [email protected], and invite an attendee - [email protected].
3. In a c# program, I connect to EWS service using a service account - [email protected], fetch its calendar events. If organizer of an event is some other user - [email protected] then
I use impersonation in the following way to update the calendar event/item properties- subject, body text etc.
        private static void Impersonate(string organizer)
            string impersonatedUserSMTPAddress = organizer;
            ImpersonatedUserId impersonatedUserId =
                new ImpersonatedUserId(ConnectingIdType.SmtpAddress, impersonatedUserSMTPAddress);
            service.ImpersonatedUserId = impersonatedUserId;
4. It was working fine till yesterday afternoon. Suddenly, it started throwing an exception "Access is denied. Check credentials and try again." Whenever I try to
update that event.
       private static void FindAndUpdate(ExchangeService service)
            CalendarView cv = new CalendarView(DateTime.Now, DateTime.Now.AddDays(30));
            cv.MaxItemsReturned = 25;
            try
                FindItemsResults<Item> masterResults = service.FindItems(WellKnownFolderName.Calendar, cv);
                foreach (Appointment item in masterResults.Items)
                    if (item is Appointment)
                        Appointment masterItem = item as Appointment;
                        if (!masterRecurEventIDs.Contains(masterItem.ICalUid.ToString()))
                            masterItem.Load();
                            if (!masterItem.Subject.Contains(" (Updated content)"))
                                //impersonate organizer to update and save for further use
                                Impersonate(masterItem.Organizer.Address.ToString());
                                // Update the subject and body
                                masterItem.Subject = masterItem.Subject + " (Updated content)";
                                string currentBodyType = masterItem.Body.BodyType.ToString();
                                masterItem.Body = masterItem.Body.Text + "\nUpdated Body Info:
xxxxxxxxxxxx";
                                // This results in an UpdateItem operation call to EWS.
                                masterItem.Update(ConflictResolutionMode.AutoResolve);
                                // Send updated notification to organizer of an appointment
                                CreateAndSendEmail(masterItem.Organizer.Address.ToString(), masterItem.Subject);
                                masterRecurEventIDs.Add(masterItem.ICalUid.ToString());
                            else
                                Console.WriteLine("Event is already updated. No need to update again.:\r\n");
                                Console.WriteLine("Subject: " + masterItem.Subject);
                                Console.WriteLine("Description: " + masterItem.Body.Text);
            catch (Exception ex)
                Console.WriteLine("Error: " + ex.Message);
5. What could be an issue here? Initially I thought may be its a throttling policy which is stopping same user after making certain API call limits for the day, but I am still seeing this issue today.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks

Your logic doesn't sound correct here eg
2. Create a calendar item by other user for e.g. [email protected], and invite an attendee - [email protected]
3. In a c# program, I connect to EWS service using a service account - [email protected], fetch its calendar events. If organizer of an event is some other user - [email protected] then
I use impersonation in the following way to update the calendar event/item properties- subject, body text etc.
When your connecting to [email protected] mailbox the only user that can make changes to items within
abccalendar is abc (or ABC's delegates). If your impersonating the Organizer of the appointment pqr that wouldn't work unless the organizer had rights to abc's calendar. If you want to make updates to a calendar
appointment like that you should connect to the Organizers mailbox first update the original, send updates and then accept the updates.
When you impersonate your impersonating the security context of the Mailbox your impersonating so its the same a logging on as that user in OWA or Outlook.
Cheers

This calendar item shows itself as every week.

I created a calendar item at work with Outlook, exported it to an .ics and e-mailed it to my home. When I open it with iCal, it shows up as every week. I deleted it, went back to work and tried again.
It is a once per month item at work:

Do you really have Mac OS 10.6.1 as shown in your message or did you upgrade to 10.6.3?
As of 10.6.3, iCal doesn't interpret BYSETPOS correctly when reading from a CalDAV store; possibly you are having the same problem when importing a .ics file.
The issue (for CalDAV) has been mentioned a couple times on this forum, mainly in relation to Zimbra's CalDAV server--you could search. The workaround for the timebeing, in that case, is to downgrade to 10.6.2.

[E2010][EWS] How to retrieve calendar items of a defined category?

But now I would like to add a filter in the XML code to retrieve only the calendar items of a category called "TEST".
How can I do this please?
Thanks

>> Do you have an example with ItemView to add a filter for a category? I didn't manage to make the query.
Firstly I would suggest you use Powershell and the EWS Managed API, this will save you hours of work and many many lines of code.
Because the category field is a multivalued property the best way to query this is to use a AQS query string the SOAP would look like
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<soap:Envelope xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:m="http://schemas.microsoft.com/exchange/services/2006/messages" xmlns:t="http://schemas.microsoft.com/exchange/services/2006/types" xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
<soap:Header>
<t:RequestServerVersion Version="Exchange2010_SP2" />
</soap:Header>
<soap:Body>
<m:FindItem Traversal="Shallow">
<m:ItemShape>
<t:BaseShape>AllProperties</t:BaseShape>
</m:ItemShape>
<m:IndexedPageItemView MaxEntriesReturned="1000" Offset="0" BasePoint="Beginning" />
<m:ParentFolderIds>
<t:DistinguishedFolderId Id="calendar" />
</m:ParentFolderIds>
<m:QueryString>System.Category:'Green Category'</m:QueryString>
</m:FindItem>
</soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>
Because this is a 2010 feature versioning you request is critical.

Filter Shared Calendar Items content based on user

Hi
I am very new to Exchange development and need to find a solution to this problem:
My outlook users must be able to view the complete calendar item description only if their name is mentioned in it. Else only the first few lines.
I have researched into Transport Agents but I'm not sure if it can intercept Calendar changes.
If someone could point me in the right direction.
Thanks in advance,
Divish

For a conference room (or meeting room) you don't need to store that information eg who as user is going to look at the conference room calendar for that information ? An attendee or Organizer will always refer to the appointment in their own calendar
which will have that information. That's why with the Set-CalendarProcessing cmdlet
https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd335046%28v=exchg.150%29.aspx you can configure the meeting room to automatically delete the Subject and Body of the appointment it automatically accepts eg
The DeleteComments parameter specifies whether to remove or keep any text in the message body of incoming meeting requests.
and
The DeleteSubject parameter specifies whether to remove or keep the subject of incoming meeting requests. Valid input for this parameter is $true or $false.
The default value is $true.
If you enable both of these setting it means anybody that does look in the Meeting Room Mailbox will only see that its booked for that period and who the organiser is.
Cheers
Glen

My calendar has disappeared; how do I get it back?

This morning when I opened outlook, my calendar had disappeared.
I am running Windows XP with Thunderbird 31.1.2 and have Lightning 3.3.1 (enabled).
Calendar is now greyed-out under View.
The last significant thing I did last night was to delete many messages and compact my folders.
I have received many emails and added several calendar items since my last backup (4 days ago) and I would rather not have to go back to that.
Why has the calendar disappeared and how can I get it back?

Confusing? View is where you modify the view of an existing window. If you want the today pane to appear in the main email window that is where you find that option.
Confusing is when you say you want a Thunderbird feature to appear in a Firefox window. :)
Confusing is where your question seems to indicate that you have lost the entire Lightning calendar program and says nothing about just being able to see if in the today pane.
Glad you got it sorted out.
