Turn off "Updated Calendar/Reminders e-mails"

Hey.
So, recently, iCloud started sending my wife emails whenever I edited a calendar or reminder list. If you click the small, green share icon to the right of every calendar and reminder list in the iCloud web interface, you get an option to switch these email updates on/off. All of mine are switched off.
Anyone else seeing this? It is extremely annoying having your inbox filled up with these meningless messages.
Both of our iPhones are updated to the latest iOS version. Her iMac is still on 10.6 (I have to update it...), but she only uses the iCloud web interface. My MacBook Pro is on the latest version of 10.7. We do not use iCloud for email (we use Google Apps on our domain, just for e-mail now, though).
Thankful for any insight into this annoying problem.

Having the same problem.  Very annoying.
One thing that looks promising but is not yet working:  if you sign into your calendar on iCloud.com, you'll see that any shared calendar/reminder list has a green circle icon (looks like it's "transmitting") next to it.  If you click on that icon, there's a checkbox for this preference:
     "Email me when this calendar is changed"
or
     "Email me when reminders are updated"
The problem is, unchecking the boxes doesn't stop those emails. In fact, it seems the default is unchecked.  I played around with this (check--uncheck--check--uncheck) to no avail.
Another user posted the following in another discussion (link):
     "Just got off the phone with an Apple iCal Representative. Here's what we did to fix the problem:
     Pulled up the Library folder and dragged the "Caches" folder and dragged it to the trash.
     Then, we went into the Preferences folder and deleted anything with ".ical" in it.
     That seemed to fix them problem. Hope this helps!"
I haven't tried this yet.

  • Turn off library caching for a Mail client on the Mac?

    Hi..is it possible to turn off library caching for a Mail client on the Mac? At work I have outlook 2007. I setup Mail client to sync Mail,contacts and calendar. The cache is stored in the library hidden folders. Is it possible to permanently turn off caching?

    I am getting more and more bewildered.  I just looked at google mails settings to see if they do something different from the isp I use and there they say the following: if the sent messages aren't stored on the server, then where are they stored? What happens to them if I set my preferences this way?  I want to wail and tear my hair out. I feel so very stupid.

    How to turn OFF Smart Address feature in Mail in iOS?

    You seem to have found the right setting. From my notes:
    Add the following line to $ORACLE_HOME/search/webapp/config/search.properties and then restart oc4j:
    ses.qapp.similar_doc_handling=disabled
    Maybe you didn't restart oc4j (using "searchctl restart")?

  • How do I turn off the preview pane in Mail

    I am trying to turn off the preview pane in Mail - ultimate goal is to stop have mail mark a message as read just because I scrolled over it.  I don't want a message marked as read unless I actually open the mail item.
    fond this thread continually in earlier discussions from 2009-2011 - but othing more recent.  Surely this has been fixed by now.
    Thanks

    Drag the divider between the message list and the preview pane all the way to the right. It will pause about a 3/4 of the way, but keep dragging and it will go all the way over.

  • Turn off Updates?

    Is there any way to turn off updates? My little red update pop-up is giving me heart failure coz it's always on. The network is never good enough to download a full update over-air before the download freezes, and if I do it from my computer it doesn't seem to take - iTunes downloads the updates but says there are still updates available, but when I click on Get Updates there are no updates. Very frustrating. I don't even use most of the apps I have - maybe I should just delete them? I'm just not sure deleting the apps will get rid of the red App bug.

    Hello Mark.
    As long as you do not mind loosing data in the App the following steps below may help you out. If you are using Apps. that required you to sign up for an account, chances are your info is stored on a back server on there end and will populate when you launch the App and sign back into the account.
    More information on what your Apps can and can not do as far as protecting data can be obtained from the App developer.
    1. Connect iPhone - and in the Apps Tab - Un-sync applications from the iPhone. Then check iPhone and make sure none of them are on the iPhone anymore.
    2. Now in iTunes on the top Menu bar in iTunes. Click on Store - De-authorize computer, then go back and re-authorize computer.
    3. Now Sync applications back to the iPhone.
    In other rare occasions you can do those first 2 steps, but before you do the third step. Download a free App from iTunes Store then sync all Apps back to the phone.
    In other rare occasions you may need to restore iPhone, and setup as new iPhone. Please be aware if you restore iPhone it will erase all data on the iPhone. So ensure it is properly backed up in the proper programs. Link posted below.

    You can, using an add-on like Tabs on Bottom or Classic Theme Restorer, or a user style.

  • Turn Off Animations in Mountain Lion Mail

    Someone, please write a fix this. I need a thoroughbred, not a circus.
    I write as many as 100 email messages a day. Everyday I check here and on MacUpdate to see if there is a fix for Mail to turn off the bouncing new message window. I can't take it anymore. Sometimes I foget to close my eyes and I'm seasick.
    Following the bouncing ball for downloads isn't as bad as the bouncing and swooshing messages, but I could do without that too.
    On the upside, my several years old iMac Intel is so fast I hardly know I've touched the keys before type appears on the screen.
    Adding animations can't be necessary to speeding up the system, right?

    Thank you. I'm afraid these are not bugs and hoping a user will write a fix.
    I found the following string on another rmessage and put it into Terminal and hit return/enter , retarted mail, but nothing changed.
    defaults write com.apple.Mail DisableReplyAnimations -bool YES

  • How do I turn off AUTOMATIC PDF viewing in Mail

    Sometimes I get 100mb PDF's and while trying to render it the Mail program will crash/lockup. I have the same problem with .AI files. Is there a way to turn off the automatic viewing of PDF's and AI files?

    jdioriotx,
    What I said before? Forget it! It serves me right for asking a friend down the hall who uses Mail (I use Entourage). Anyway, doing what I said before won't keep Mail from rendering your PDFs, etc., so what you need is a plugin that you can find here. It sounds like it'll be worth the six bucks for you.

  • Turn off update notifications

    I am sick and tired of getting the popup notifications that I need to go update something on the OS. There are updates that I do NOT want, I can manage updating my system without having to continously move the pop up out of the way, and every day having to suspend them for 1 day. I want to suspend them for 1 week, not 1 day.

    guess this did NOT show up as a reply to the particular comment for which  i clicked the "reply" link; so editing to explain.
    this was in reply to HW's reply to suggestion about going to software update.
    ========================
    assume this is no longer an issue. just had to figure out how to turn this off myself. but think u misunderstood the suggestion above your comment. he did NOT say to go to the notifcation center (since app store is NOT there). he said to go to SOFTWARE UPDATE in System Prefs. The fix is supposed to be to turn off automatic updates. apparently that pref controls OS updates, as well as App Store updates. i am waiting to confirm that this has, indeed, removed those annoying notifications!

  • Turn Off Updates to a Spry Region?

    I have a script that manipulates the contents of a spry
    region by removing selected rows, then re-applying a pre-existing
    filter. I'd like to temporarily suspend any updates to the region
    so that the contents remain static until I've finished all my
    manipulations, then I'd want to update the region to show the final
    result of my processing. Is there a way to turn off and on updates
    to a region?

    cmanmcl,
    This can be done by signing out of Messages in Settings -> Messages, then signing in with the desired Apple ID.
    iOS 6 and later: Go to Settings > Messages, then tap Send & Receive.
    If you signed out before changing your Apple ID:
    iPhone, iPod touch: Tap "Use your Apple ID for iMessage" and enter your current Apple ID.
    iPad: Enter your current Apple ID.
    If you're still signed in with your previous Apple ID, tap your previous Apple ID, then tap Sign Out.
    iPhone, iPod touch: Tap "Use your Apple ID for iMessage" and enter your current Apple ID.
    iPad: Enter your current Apple ID.

  • Turn off treading feature in Lion Mail

    Is it possible to turn off the threading feature in Lion Mail?  Threading messages from the same sender really messses up my work flow. 
    Thanks.

    Is there a way to make this the default?  It turns out that the "Organize by Conversation" is the default for every mailbox.  I'm surprised there is not an obvious way to set this in preferences....

  • Turning off updates?

    ?  I am a Robotics engineer and a mountain climber- I'm going away for 3 years on a trip into the wilderness...  How do I turn off this ridiculous iOS updating bs?  I'm not trying to hip- I don't need an outlet to recharge it either- I need to know how I can make this work or do I need to go with windows?
    Message was edited by: eatmyAPPLEshorts

    One way, is to fill up the storage space so there is no room for the ios update.  I think ios is always comes as complete download.  Leave only one gig free and there will be no room for an ios update.  Doesn't the ios updates only come via wifi?  Download some large videos that you can delete when you need more space.

    Do you mean that you can't get the computer to shut down? Try holding down the power button until the computer force-shuts down.
