I'm afraid to tell you that there is no fix, Outlook will place 'accepted' events on its default calendar, which will be the Exchange calendar (if connected to an Exchange Server) or the local (Personal Folders) calendar. No subscribed calendar may be the default. To make it worse, this behavior also applies to Contacts, if you accept a vCard it will be placed in the local folder, not iCloud's folder.
Tell Microsoft how much you dislike this 'feature'

Meeting request in SharePoint calendar from Outlook 2010

Hi,
I've connected a SharePoint calendar to my Outlook 2010 client and wish to manage this calendar from within Outlook 2010 itself. When I try to request a new meeting in this calendar from Outlook, I am able to do everything as normal, but when the meeting
request is synchronised, it comes up with the following error:
I can see the item in the Local Failures folder but it does get sync'd soon after and appears in the SharePoint calendar list on the SharePoint site itself. However, when viewing the item in Outlook, it is an appointment, not a meeting.
I've seen this article - http://support.microsoft.com/kb/926440. Does this mean you can't create meeting requests in SharePoint calendars?
Can anyone shed some light on what is possible and what isn't? I don't want to have to create a meeting workspace for every meeting required.
Many thanks

OK, thanks for clearing that up.

Miss these functions on iCloud calendar

1. Delete duplicate events
2. Search events
3. Numbered weeks
4. Font size adjust

You can subscribe to week number calendars - look in Apple's calendars list.
As to the other facilities, they are all provided by Busycal, which is like 'iCal Pro' - it looks much like iCal on Snow Leopard but has many more facilities, including the ones you ask for. It's available from their website or in the Mac App Store.
Of course this applies only to the calendar application on your Mac: BusyCal will sync with the iCloud calendar, but the online iCloud calendar is what it is and is not configurable.
(I have no connection with this firm.)

Send Meeting requests in a calendar format with alerts/reminders?

To be able to set up Meetings that will automatically notify invited attendees.

Have you installed the lightning calendar add-on? Sounds like you have not and need to.

How do I fix meeting requests/invitations default to ms outlook calendar and do not show up on iCloud calendar?

This is frustrating and seems to be a known issue. Regular calendar items work fine but any meeting invitations sent to and accepted on PC running Outlook 2010 with iCloud add in only show up on default (local) calendar. Must add them manually. Also meeting requests sent from same PC configuration are being hijacked by iCal/iCloud feature and prompt the receiver to accept through iCloud interface rather than a regular Outlook email invite, though those meeting do show up on end user's Outlook calendar. And meeting requests sent to a group gives an STMP error. Is there an update or newer version that fixes any of these issues? I turned off MobileMe add in but doesn't help. We use iCloud and like it because we need the calendar and contact features to sync between the PC and iPhone and iPad, which works fine.

Outlook will not allow a subscribed calendar to be the default, unless it is an Exchange calendar. You can't change this behaviour unfortunately.

Symbian S^3/Anna Calendar Meeting Request (Invitee...

First... I want to explain how this came about. I've never sent out a Meeting Invite from my Nokia N8 (PR1.2) to anyone before. However, in the days of collaboration, people send & receive Calendar Appointments to and from different Email/PIM Clients.
Since Symbian Anna announced that it will have "e-mail invitations with full meeting request support"... I ran a test with a buddy of mine that had Symbian Anna.
This is also because iPhone users can 'send invitations' during Calendar Event creation and this meeting request magically appears in my Google Calendar.
Why are't Nokia generated meeting requests appearing in e-mail and Google Calendar???
Observations:
a) When I send out a Meeting Request (via E-mail or SMS), my Nokia N8 PR 1.2 (Pre-Anna) - sends the attachment as Calendar.vcs, which has a totally different format from the meeting.ics that is read by e-mail clients. Is the meeting.ics a change in Symbian Anna? I am assuming that Calendar.vcs is an internal Nokia to Nokia format. This does not work in this day and age of people using many different brands of OS's.
**Side Note: I am in Canada. When is my Anna Update for my Vanilla Nokia USA N8 going to be available???
b) When I receive this Calendar.vcs as an attachment in e-mail, it is not translated as a Calendar Invitation item at all in my Gmail or my PC E-mail Client. Why?
Calendar.vcs is sent out as "Application/Octet-Stream" in Base64 Encoding by the Symbian Email Client or the Nokia Email Servers??? Why???
What does Application/Octet-Stream tell the receiving email client? This is an application attachment. Treat it as such.
c) When I asked my friend who has a Nokia N8 (PR 2.0) Symbian Anna to send me a meeting request, I get an email that has an attachment "meeting.ics" -- let's call this Specimen A -- when it arrived in my Google Inbox, it is not seen nor translated as a Calendar Item.
By this time, I got confused...
So I sent an Appointment/Calendar Request from my Novell Groupwise and sent it to my Google. I also receive a "meeting.ics" -- let's call this Specimen B. However, Google was able to immediately translate that this meeting.ics is a Calendar Item and neatly displays it as such, asking me to say YES, NO, MAYBE to the Calendar item. It even magically inserts into my Google Calendar.
So I was even MORE confused!!!
Here is what I have gathered from reading the Message Sources.
Nokia meeting.ics (Specimen A)
- attachment meeting.ics is sent out as MIME TYPE Application/MSPowerpoint (this tells the receiving client that this is a powerpoint application and is not translated as a Calendar Item)
- attachment meeting.ics is sent out encoded in Base64
- meeting.ics files is missing PARTSTAT=NEEDS-ACTION in each Attendee (tells the PIM Calendar that this Calendar Request needs to be acted upon with an Accept/Deny)
Novell Groupwise meeting.ics (Specimen B)
- attachment meeting.ics is sent out as MIME TYPE Text/Calendar
- attachment meeting.ics is encoded in 8-Bit
- meeting.ics file has PARTSTAT=NEEDS-ACTION for Attendees.
So what is the difference? Why is the meeting.ics (Specimen B) from Groupwise readable by Google Mail/Calendar while meeting.ics (Specimen A) from Nokia Symbian Email Client not readable at all?
So I did a small test.
I edited Specimen A meeting.ics from Nokia Email Client and added to th PARTSTAT=NEEDS-ACTION Attendees.
I sent these in 2 Test Emails to my Google Mail.
Test 1: Original meeting.ics from Nokia Email without PARTSTAT=NEEDS-ACTION
Test 2: Altered meeting.ics from Nokia Email WITH PARTSTAT=NEEDS-ACTION
I send these "meeting.ics" tests via my Groupwise Client as an attachment file.
When I received both in my Google Mail, Google is able to properly render this as a Calendar Item and display it as such, asking me to say YES, NO, MAYBE to both instances of the Test Emails.
So, maybe PARTSTAT=NEEDS-ACTION has nothing to do with this then...
I forwarded the test messages back to myself to see what MIME-TYPE Groupwise sent this as this time.
It sent it as TEXT/PLAIN and encoded in Base64. So now, we know Base64 Encoding & 8Bit Encoding is not the culprit.
So I ponder more. WHY WOULD NOKIA EMAIL CLIENT SEND OUT meeting.ics as APPLICATION/MSPOWERPOINT???? *.ics file extension is not even related to anything Powerpoint.
So if meeting.ics is sent out by the sending email client as text/calendar or text/plain, the receiving email client is able to properly translate this and render this as a Calendar Item (Request).
However, because Nokia Email Client send this out as "Application/MSPowerpoint", the receiving email client will think this is an e-mail attachment for PowerPoint and will not display the Calendar Item properly.
MIME-TYPES. Something so basic, something that would cause a HUGE ERROR.
Is this a BUG? I THINK IT IS... PLEASE FIX THIS ERROR. PLEASE! PLEASE! PLEASE!
So... THIS IS A FAIL. Nokia!
Collaboration is also part of "Connecting People". If Person X using Outlook, Person B using Crackberry, Person C using iPhone, Person D using Android, Person E using a Nokia Symbian cannot collaborate and send/receive/accept/deny Calendar Items they send each other... isn't there a HUGE DISCONNECT?
I am hoping, actually, I am praying really hard to the many gods and dieties that this will be forwarded immediately to the Nokia Email Client Team to be looked at and an Update Immediately made available.
Thanks.

Hi Joe,
1.      Whether the sender and recipient users are on the same AD site?
2.      If the user uses OWA to access the Meeting Request message, whether is it still displayed as a normal email instead of a meeting request?
I would like to explain that a meeting request should have MAPI property “PR_MESSAGE_CLASS” which value is IPM.Schedule.Meeting.Request. A normal message will have the MAPI property “PR_MESSAGE_CLASS” which value is IPM.Note.
The issue may occur:
1.      Some third-party software such as spam filter software and disclaimer software change the mail format
2.      Some Add-ins on the Outlook change the mail format
To troubleshoot the possible cause 1, I suggest that you enable Pipeline Tracing:
Using Pipeline Tracing to Diagnose Transport Agent Problems
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb125198(EXCHG.80).aspx
Note: Because Pipeline tracing could place a large amount of strain on a system, I suggest that you disable it after gathering the information.
To troubleshoot the possible cause 2, I suggest that you disable the Add-ins temporarily:
Disable third-party add-ins of Outlook
==================================
1.      Backup and then remove the following two registry keys:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\Outlook\Addins
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Office\Outlook\Addins
2.      Restart the Outlook by using “Outlook /Safe”

Problem with rescheduled meeting request from a LotusNotes user. How can I get it to process on my iPad/iCloud account?

When I receive an original meeting request from a LotusNotes user, I can select the .ics attachment and it gives me an option to "add to calendar" which will place it on my calendar. However, when I receive a rescheduled meeting notification, I get an email with the .ics attachment but it does nothing when I try to select it from the email. There is no "add to calendar" or anything. How can I get the reschedule information to make the appropriate changes in my iPad/iCloud calendar?
I have tried from my iPad email and from my online iCloud interface and neither seems to work.

iBooks only syncs purchased books. Others must be synced in iTunes.

ICloud sends out hundreds of old meeting request responses

After I signed up to iCloud, it proceeded to send out hundreds of very old meeting request responses. Some 18 months old.
How do I stop this and find out why it is happening?

The same thing happened to me. It has the potential to be embarassing as it sends emails to clients forold meetings. The emails are also being sent from my apple account emailrather than my work email. Very annoying.
I have no idea why this is occurringand can only think that it must be a glitch with iCloud?
The other strange thing is that I had already disabled calendar syncing on the day I began using IOS 5, after the initial sync.

How to stop iCloud from sending meeting requests

I have a situation where an iCloud Calendar has been set up with many meetings with attendees for a business (appointments for a hair salon). We created these "meetings" by dragging people from Contacts into Calendar, thinking this was a good way to have their contact info handy.
I don't want to send people updates or requests or invites or anything - it is confusing everyone and there are some 100 meetings that were set up and if I delete the attendee to just try to turn this into a "local" meeting for strictly my reference, they are getting a message that the meeting has been canceled.
Bah!
Is there a way to just stop sending these messages?
If I just delete the calendar that has all these meetings, will iCloud send out 100 emails telling everyone that those meetings are cancelled?
Thanks for any help here....

I can't delete a cancelled meeting request in calendar events on iPhone

When sending or receiving meeting requests from outlook the calander events are added perfectly.
But, when the origInator cancels the event, all the invitees receive another ICS file in the email but nothing happens when
the event is cancelled. And you can't event delete the calendar event ! So frustrating!

See if you can go to your Calendars App and select a previous event to see what Calendar the event was added to (iCloud or Yahoo). After that is determined you can go to www.iCloud.com or calendar.yahoo.com and add the event there to see if it will populate on your device. Another troubleshooting step is deleting the iCloud account from your device and also deleting the Yahoo account. Then check to see if you can add an event without it syncing to a email. If you can then it may have just been a bug and you can add both accounts back and try adding the event again. I would also recommend only using one service to sync your Contacts, Calendars, Reminders, etc. Such as either iCloud only or Yahoo only, as using multiple accounts means your data is spread around and can be hard to isolate when something goes wrong.

ICloud/iCal meeting request does not work

I currently use iCal/iCloud on my Lion MacBook Pro.
In the past, using MobileMe, I would be able to send meeting requests to WinTel/Exchange recipients. The email that the recipient would receive gave them the options to accept, decline or Tentative. These were always useless and misleading options as choosing on these did nothing to add to the recipients calendar. It was only a way to notify me, the sender, of their response. The recipient would have to take the additional step of double clicking on the attached .ics file to add to their calendar. If the recipient did not choose one of the three options but double clicked on the .ics file, I was never notified of their response.
But things have gotten worse with iCloud. Now, the recipient receives the same email, with the three options that now do nothing, but when the recipient double clicks on the .ics file, it shows that the recipient is the creator of the event and cannot add to their calendar or modify. THEY ARE NOT ABLE TO DO ANYTHING WITH THE REQUEST.
I just had a Chat with support and was informed that any recipient that I want to send a meeting request to MUST have an iCloud account and have the panel installed. This is not only cumbersome but in most cases not doable. Some of my meeting requests are to recipients in corporate environments and have restrictions on sites and apps.
How is Apple to be taken serious in the business environment with these types of restrictions?
Thank you.

Hi,
Thank you for your quick feedback. Maybe my situation is a little different, since I am on an Exchange 2010 server myself. My "accepted" does not even get mailed out. And when I receive an "accepted" mail, iCal and/or the server do not recognize it.
I talked to the Apple support yesterday on their hotline and they claimed they never heard about it. Whereas our IT department, who is in charge for many thousand users, is also in touch with Apple directly and says that they have several users with this issue....
Anyway, did you activate in both iCal and Mail.app that calendar data are retrieved automatically?
Below some screen shots. Since I have all these issues, I have turned it OFF, you might need to turn this ON.

Block incoming calendar / meeting requests to a specific mailbox / user using transport rules or an Outlook rule?

I have a weird request I have never thought I would get. I have a VIP user that wants to receive no calendar invites / meeting invites from:
- anyone outside of our organization (ie: from the internet)
- only certain users from INSIDE our organization
Can I accomplish this either though a transport rule and/or an Outlook rule? I am on Exchange 2007 currently, and Outlook 2007 currently. Soon to have both on 2013 versions, migrating soon, but if possible, I need to implement this in our current environment.
Thanks in advance

Hello,
Based on your description, I understand that the VIP user don't want to receive meeting requests from anyone outside of your organization and certain users from inside your organization. If so, we can't create transport rule in exchange 2007.
I recommend you upgrade your exchange server 2007 to exchange 2013. If you use exchange 2013, you can create this transport rule like : under condition, the sender is this person (distribution
group, you can add certain users from inside your organization to a distribution group) ; the recipient is this person (the VIP user);
the message properties include the message type(Calendaring); under actions, block the message reject the message and include an explanation/ reject the message with the enhanced status code of /delete the message without notifying anyone.
You need to create the second transport rule: you only need to change the first condition: the sender is located outside the organization, and other conditions and actions are the same as the first transport rule.

Missing information when an Outlook user cancel a meeting request

Hi all,
Pardon the cross-posting but I put this question up in the iCal discussion group and didn't get any responses. There seam to be a lot of iCal ics and Mail integration discussion here so I thougt I'd try my luck.
I've just switched over from Entourage to Mail and a client sent me a meeting request. iCal picked it up OK and I was able to see the meeting details, with comments, and respond through iCal.
Today the meeting got cancelled. iCal pick up the meeting cancellation from Mail and deleted the calendar event. However, there was a lot of other information in the meeting cancellation request file. My client had suggested other times and asked for responses. The only way I could see this information was by saving the ics file to disk and opening it in TextEdit.
Is there any way to get iCal to display the full contents of a cancelled meeting request rather than simply deleting the event?
Thanks,
Nigel

Hi Dineke,
You can contact your Exchange administrator to run the following command to check it:
Get-Mailbox –Identity yourname | Select Name, HiddenFromAddressListsEnabled
Or you can view your colleague’s Default Global Address List in OWA to check whether you are listed there or not.
Please check whether there is any transport rule or Outlook rule setting in your mailbox. Also change a new computer and create a new Outlook profile to have a try.
Best Regards,

Replying to Meeting Requests (Calendar)

In regard to Calendar on the iPod/iPhone/iPad:
Is there any way to Decline a meeting request and Edit the reply so that you can explain WHY you're declining the meeting? I know you send a separate reply but whenever I click Decline, it immediately sends the message without any chance to add an explanation. Outlook users will know that this is easily done with "Edit the reply before sending."

We want to make using the important features of your new device easy, jflewis88. What application are you using to sync your Outlook calendar to your phone's Gmail calendar? Is there also an application downloaded for the sync process on your computer?

Office365 User not receiving Meeting Request Email (but shows in Calendar)

Hi,
We have one user (so far) who has successfully migrated from Exchange 2007 to 'Office365' but when you sent them an meeting request they do not get ANY email notification of it. No Spam, rules, junk email are affecting it. There are no delegates on the account.
I have removed the Office365 user license for them and then re-added it but made no difference.
If the user goes into the calendar they can actually 'see' the meeting and accept / decline it in there but we obviously need the user to get some email notification of it so they are aware of a meeting and now get a 'surprise' meeting they knew nothing about!
Other migrated users are able to receive email notifications of meeting requests without issue. There is just no trace of it for this user.

Hi Peter,
As per your description above, I understand that one user cannot receive meeting requests, instead, the meetings are placed on their calendar directly.
I would like to confirm that whether he/she configured the email account into any Outlook clients, or actually we are talking about the web-based Outlook in Office 365 portal?
If this is an issue in the Outlook desktop client, please check if you have ticked the option of
Automatically accept meeting requests and remove canceled meetings
under FILE>Options>Calendar>Auto Accept/Decline... Try untick it and verify again.
If Outlook client is not involved here, I would suggest you post your question in the forum of Office 365 Community - email and calendar, where you can get more experienced responses:
http://community.office365.com/en-us/f/158.aspx
The reason why we recommend posting appropriately is you will get the most qualified pool of respondents, and other partners who read the forums regularly can either share their knowledge or learn from your interaction with us. Thank you for your understanding.
Hope this helps.
