Trouble with .ics file and incorrect appointment times

My problem sounds quite similar to many of the other discussions within this community and the net in general. However I have yet to find a solution to my issue.
When receiving an email with an attached .ics file it imports into Calendar two hours later than the actual event. I have double checked that my time zone setting is correct in the General Settings and, as has been suggested, turning off "TIme Zone Support" in the Mail, Contacts, Calendar settings. The .ics files I receive are created in the same time zone as I.
When opening the email on my Laptop and importing the .ics file it is correct in iCal which, to me, means I have an incorrect setting on my iPhone.
Is it a coincidence that the import on my phone sets its own alert time at two hours and that's the same time differential that the event is incorrect? There is no set alert time when importing the file on my laptop. I also have no default alert times set in my phone settings.
The only way I can get it to work is if I open it on my laptop first then sync my phone. It's unfortunate that I rarely have the luxury of having my laptop with me.
So, simply stated, the file imports perfectly on my MacBook but not on my iPhone. What settings on the phone am I missing? Ive tried settings in different ways and in different combinations with restarts in between and still no luck.

Greetings,
If nothing shows up that suggests:
A. There is nothing in that .ics file
B. The date you are looking at does not have anything associated with this .ics file
C. There is something wrong with iCal / it's database.
Try importing that calendar into iCal into a new calendar and then uncheck all the calendars but the new one. Now go to month view and go forward and backward and see if there is anything showing up in iCal.
If there is still nothing try adding a different calendar to make iCal is working as this could just be a bad calendar or a calendar with nothing in it: http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/calendars/
Hope that helps.

  • Having trouble with wav files and sample rates

    Hi ,I am having trouble with wav files and sample rates .I have been sent multiple projects on wav as the main instrumental ; I wish to record in 48.000kHz .Now comes the problem.When I try to change the project to 48k It seems to pitch up the track.I can't have them send the logic/project file as most have outboard synths,different plug ins etc.This particular case the producer has recorded the synth task in 41.000 kHz .My successful outcome would be to be able t create a project file in 48 kHz .And NOT pitch up whne I add the instrumenta wav file .Any help would be gratefully recieved,this is my first post so any mistakes I may have made go easy 

    You'll have to convert the actual synth audio file file that the producer gave you to 48kHz. You can do this in the audio Bin in Logic.

  • Having trouble with the File and Folder Objects (PSCS3 javascript on Win)

    I'm having trouble successfully creating a new folder on my windows platform, using javascripts in photoshop. In ExtendScript Toolkit 2, set to Adobe Photoshop CS3, I've tried:
    var myFolder = new Folder("/c/Documents and Settings/vcastelo/My Documents");
    myFolder.create();
    and
    var myFolder = new Folder("/c/Documents and Settings/vcastelo/My Documents");
    is this right? what am I doing wrong? It's pretty basic stuff, I know but I can't figure is out... any help would be greatly appreciated.

    The "/c/Documents and Settings/vcastelo/My Documents/data" form works, too, and
    should be preferred.
    Here's an extreme example as to why this is a good idea:
    I work in an XP/cygwin environment, so I added links to all of my drives in my
    root cygwin folder. As a result, the path /p/Pictures/2008-05-05 is the same on
    the bash command line (and other tools) as it is in PSJS. I carried this over to
    my Mac, as well. I mount P: drive in OSX then setup links so that
    /p/Pictures/2008-05-05 is also the same on the Mac. This has vastly simplified
    my work. The only time I use system-specific pathnames is in a script's UI.

  • Trouble with audio files and Garage Band 10

    Hi. I am having a very uneven experience using GB10. I sometimes successfully record tunes with more than one audio file (i.e. choosing the microphone option when creating a new track). But two things keep happening.
    1. I sometimes cannot hear my instrument even though I have clicked on the input monitoring button. I play the instrument and I see no indication on screen (via green squares moving from left to right) that any signal is being received.
    2. I sometimes experience a delay with a live instrument--I play the instrument and the note sounds a split second later. I am familiar with using the Smart Controls...this is not a deliberate echo effect.
    These have ground my recording to a halt.  Any input into why these things are happening would be most welcome! David

    sure....say I record a clip in track one with a bunch of plugins....export the clip to the audio region...then import back to the arrange...
    First of all it won't let me play the clip in Track 2, but if I shift the clip to track 3 it'll play....BUT I can't control the volume or pan .....very strange. I hate freezing stuff...although I have been for ages....but if this works it'll be cool....
    Thanks...

    Yes, thank you.  My apologies, I was typing one handed and did not add that. 
    Anyway, I have tried deleting the cache, deleting my pics and then re-syncing, etc. and nothing is working This is very frustrating, as I had no problems up until about 2 weeks ago, and now all of a sudden, I have this issue......UGH!

  • Trouble with Airport Extreme and Time Capsule

    Just got a new 2TB time capsule and added it to my network (existing Airport Express and Airport Extreme).  All devices are hard-wire back-hauled to Linksys router.  Set up was straight forward with no issues and initiated a time capsule back up without a problem.  Within hours I noticed that the TC was no longer reachable in Finder.. Opening the AirPort utility, I saw that both the Extreme and the TC were "lost".  Still had (green) internet connectivity, but the base stations were showing as off-line in the Airport utility.
    Tried rebooting and checking from multiple other devices and no luck.  Occasionally will find them both on-line in Airport utility, but seem to lose one (usually TC) after a short period.  All are running the most up to date version of firmware (7.7.3).  Prior to installing the TC, I had experienced 0 issues with Airport Express and Extreme.
    Has anyone else seen similar issues?  Are there settings that need to be accounted for in some way to avoid these frustrating "lost devices"?
    thanks

    Thank you for your quick answer, smorkerz. However, I did it and it doesn't work.
    I tried to check separately the time capsule and the airport extreme, switching one off when using the other one. The result is that each one works alone but when I use them both, just time capsule appears, works well, and I can't use the airport to print for instance.
    Do you understand anything ?

  • Troubles with xmp files not loading...

    I'm having troubles with xmp files not loading with images but are present in the image folders. does anyone know why this is happening and if there is a way to fix this. Also when trying to load the xmp individually they are grayed out and unable to load. I have tried this on different machines (Macs) and still no luck. Any help would be greatly appreciated in this issue.

    > The information contained in the XMP file is stored in the DNG file so there is no need for a separate file.
    Aww, yuck!! That's a real drag...
    When editing lots of files (yesterday's shoot produced 8GB) I back everything up to off-line storage and then, after doing all my edits and crops in ACR, I only have to copy over the small XMP files which takes no time at all.
    So if I re-edit the DNG with ACR I have to re-copy ALL the files again to the off-line storage.
    I used to sometimes even save 2 versions of the xmp files when I needed 2 different crops of the same images, such as doing a wide screen 'cinema' crop for a corporate client's Intranet presentation of their event, as well as more standard crops to be used for their newsletters.
    Guess I won't be using DNG any more..
    Thanks for the help Kees :-)

  • Can I copy my iTunes files and folders to Time Capsule wirelessly from my PC?

    Can I copy my iTunes files and folders to Time Capsule wirelessly from my PC? I was wondering since my iTunes files and folders are connected to iTunes.

    You can but the TC is the worst possible location. The design is slow to start and quick to stop data connections.. that will cause trouble.
    Moving folders has specific instructions.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1364
    Move it to an external hard disk fine.. but be very sure you will not be happy with the TC as a location.

  • TS3999 Help! Trouble with my calendar and icloud.

    I am having trouble with my calendar and icloud.
    Customers send me meeting invites and I can accept them no problem. But if they subsequently change the date or time I get an error message:
    Access to “appointment name” in “Home” in account “iCloud” is not permitted.
    The server responded:
    “403”
    to operation CalDAVWriteEntityQueueableOperation
    sometimes the time changes in my calendar, sometimes it doesn't, and my customers keep getting messages back from icloud 'accepting' the original date, not the changed date!!
    It is driving me an my clients crazy!  any help would be appreciated.

    I had a problem specific to the Calendar on web-based Firefox (PC) Was asked for a separate sign-in I'd never seen before which didn't work. I resolved this by signing out, signing in again.

  • Trouble With Opening InDesign and now Photoshop and Illustrator

    First off I apologize if this isn't in the correct section. I couldn't find a section specific to my problem since it involves multiple aspects of Adobe products. I was having trouble with InDesign, it kept crashing. So I followed all of the advice I could find on the forums about deleting the preferences and cache information in the Library folder, and that didn't seem to make a difference. So then I thought maybe it needed an update, so I logged into Adobe Application Manager and sure enough, it did. So I clicked on "download" and it stalled there too. Then the manager became unresponsive. I couldn't cancel the update or log out or anything. So then I saw in the forum someone suggested the Adobe Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool if your manager becomes unresponsive. I ran that and then shut my computer off. When I turned it back on, InDesign started working BUT my Photoshop is completely gone from my system (I never messed with it in the first place since I wasn't having any trouble with it.) And the when I tried to click on Illustrator it said "Do you want to begin your trial?" Huh?
    I have had a subscription since 2012, why on earth would it suddenly think that I no longer should have access to these programs? If I log on to my Adobe account it shows my subscription and that it's up to date (last payment was April 5, 2015). The versions I was using were the CS versions that I had downloaded directly from Adobe and when I used to have any trouble or when I got a different computer I could just log into my account and then redownload them. They are no longer showing under my products, so I can't figure out what on earth is going on. The website has changed since the last time I downloaded them, so that partly could be me, but I thought they would at least be showing up under products. I contacted Adobe support and the first person I talked to on chat said "this is clearly a technical issue I am transferring you to someone better suited for this," but that's all he said. And I haven't heard from anyone since so I thought I'd make a topic and see if anyone else out there has had a similar problem.

    The versions I am using are the CS6 versions.*

  • Save the file and give date & time stamp

    1. Reading the Excel file from the selection screen as a parameter.
    2. Using F.M. ALSM_EXCEL_TO_INTERNAL_TABLE reading Excel file into
        Internal table.
    3. Implementing the Business Logic.
    4. Move output to Final Internal table.
    5. Final internal table should generate a Flat file. By using GUI_DOWNLOAD.
    6. That flat file should be saved with the name and location given in the Excel.
    7. When ever I run the program output file will generate in the same location but with date and time stamp. Because I’m running the program for range of employees say initially I run for 1 – 10,000 employees next 10,001- 20,000 like that.
    Whenever I run for 2nd time it will overwrite the previous output, that’s the reason I’m using date and time stamp.
    Eg:
    PERSONAL Numbers              Name                                         Location
    00000001                 xxxxx-24.04.2007-10.30          C:\

    00000004                                  xxxxx-25.04.2007-10.30
    Can any one help me how to save the file and give date & time stamp through hardcode?
    please help me in this issue.

    I am not clear with your problem. Based on the understanding of your question,
    there  can be two cases.
    1- U want to insert time stamp in the output file.
    2- Time stamp is already there, u just have to solve the overwriting issue.
    If your question goes with option 2, You can make use of import parameters
    <b>CONFIRM_OVERWRITE</b> : Which will ask for confirmation before overwriting.
    <b>APPEND</b> : which you can choose either to append the data to the existing file or overwrite it.
    Please inform if the issue is not resolved.

  • Error: There is a problem with the file and it cannot be copied

    I've been trying to copy (and essentially move) the contents of an NTFS-formatted external HDD to my iMac's internal HDD so I can then format the external HDD to Mac OS Extended. However, when I simply try to drag and drop, I get an error during the transfer that states:
    There is a problem with the file and it cannot be copied.
    I tried a basic cp command in Terminal to copy all contents of the external HDD to a folder on my iMac's desktop, and found that while there were no errors, there were many individual files missing full chunks of data (ie. original file would be 4GB on my external HDD, but only 350MB on my desktop).
    Any ideas on how I can successfully copy a large amount of data (approx. 170GB) from my external HDD to my internal HDD while avoiding this error, so I can ultimately format my external HDD to Mac OS Extended? ANY help is greatly appreciated.

    That's not a good error to see. It indicates something is very wrong. Pulled out of an old programming header file:
    ioErr = -36, /*I/O error (bummers)*/
    If Apple labelled it "bummers," they had a good reason! Unfortunately, that doesn't bode well for you.
    Try running Disk Utility again. Keep repairing over and over until one of two things happens: 1) Disk Utility says no repair was needed, or 2) Disk Utility reports the same error in two sequential repair sessions and is unable to repair it both times.
    If you hit the second case, or if you hit the first but still can't copy files, then you've got two basic options:
    = Buy a third-party disk utility or two and try them. Try TechTool as a first choice.
    = Recover what files you can and write the rest off as gone.
    = Send your drive to a data recovery service and hope they can extract more than you can.
    Of course, none of this is necessary if you have a backup of the contents of that hard drive. (If you don't, this is your learning experience. Once bitten, twice shy, so they say.) Also, regardless of the outcome, once you've got your data or have decided it's gone, you're going to want to wipe that drive completely clean. Reformat the drive with Disk Utility, then when it's done, select the drive in Disk Utility and hit command-i. (Don't select the new volume you just created on that drive, select the drive itself. Mine looks like "232.9 GB Hitachi ..." with the volume name indented underneath.) Look for an item that says S.M.A.R.T. Status, and if it doesn't say Verified, you might as well throw out the drive. Don't trust any more data to it.
    If all appears safe, you can start moving data back onto it. But, as always, make sure you have a backup of everything!

  • Trouble with internal keyboard and touchpad

    Hi,
    Yesterday I just out of nowhere started having some trouble with my keyboard and touchpad on my MacBook Air.
    The problem displayed itself on various ways. One thing was that I couldn't press regulary with the touchpad. When I was pressing one time, it acted like a pressed with two fingers. When I tried to type in my password on the administrator page, some of the keys didn't work at all and some started to act weird. For example when I was pressing the letter B, the "bar" which displayes where you are in the text (don't know the word in English) went backwards, and when I pressed the letter F it went forward. This seemes so weird and also gives me a hope that it might be some setting failure though B stands for backwards and F stands for forward.
    I could log in to the guestpage where I tried to write in "notes". In notes, no letters at all was working, only numbers. When I tried to shut the computer down from the apple symbol I was asked to write administrator name and password. When I tried to mark the name to write it, there wasn't a "bar" but a cross, but on the other hand did it work to write in the password field. But of course not B and F..
    Usualy I'd just press the on/off botton until the computer lockdown, unfortunately the botton doesn't work. So the only thing I could do was to let the battery die and hope that it would start when I recharged it and pressed start, this didn't go as well as I hoped, so now I'm stuck with a dead macbook air.
    Any ideas of what could be the problem or/and any solutions what might do the trick?
    Extremly greatful for any answers
