Website ical feed not importing into ical (but works in other programs)

We have a website that contains timetables, and publish ical (.ics) feeds for users so that they can import their timetables into their own calendar software. We have a few users who are saying that ical will not import our site's ics feed. Either just one event (of many) gets imported or none of them do. We've imported these feeds into google calendar, sunbird & outlook without any problems, and have ran this same user's feed through an ical validation tool and it passes without any errors or warnings.
Where can I find out what iCal is having trouble with? Is there an error log somewhere I can get the users to access? Are there any parts of the ics format that ical is particularly flaky with? How can I find out what's wrong? Any suggestions would be appreciated!
thanks

I'm having this problem too... can't figure out what is wrong.
Outlook & Google Calendar can import it
It validates according to:
http://severinghaus.org/projects/icv/
If there is only one event iCal accepts it, but if there are more than one, it gives an error message (a very unhelpful one at that).
There is a link to the iCal file here:

[SOLVED] Since updating to Java 1.6.0_33 on my MacBook running OSX 10.6.8, websites say Java not installed in Firefox, but works in Chrome

I work for User Testing, which uses a Java-based screen recorder to make videos of people using commercial websites and offering spoken feedback on the site. Since installing the Java 1.6.0_33 update for Snow Leopard on my MacBook, the User Testing screen recorder does not recognize that Java is installed, and won't work.
If I switch to Chrome, all works smoothly. I have the latest version of Firefox, and have installed the latest updates. I have opened Java Preferences in my Utilities, and made sure that the checkbox "Enable applet plug-in and Web Start applications" is checked. I have cleared the cache and cookies in Firefox. The problem still persists.
User Testing says no other Mac users have reported the problem, and so they cannot help me. I rely on a Firefox add-on that is not available for Chrome to notify me of new User Testing jobs (which are normally claimed in seconds), so it is not practical for me to simply switch to Chrome or another browser.
Interestingly, when checking my plugins in order to fill out the information required below in this help request, I was sent to a Firefox page that says "For your safety, Firefox has disabled your outdated version of Java. Please upgrade to the latest version."
When I click the link, it says that Apple supplies its own version of Java, which of course I have already installed. Guess this is the root of the problem, but how do I fix it?
EDITED TO ADD SOLUTION:
After even more Googling, I eventually stumbled on the solution. In the Firefox menu, I chose Help>Troubleshooting Information, and clicked "Show in Finder" under Application Basics. I then quit Firefox, clicked on the Profile folder, deleted the file "pluginreg.dat", and restarted Firefox. Java now shows up among my plugins, and is enabled by default. The failure of pluginreg.dat to update automatically was supposed to be an old Firefox problem that has been solved, but apparently that is not always the case.
Thank you to everyone who answered.

I read somwhere that firefox disables certain versions of java because it might give control of your computer to other malicious websites
I think you have to go to the java website and down load the version you need and enable it in firefox's prefrences
Sorry I may be a veteran in using firefox, but I know very little since I hardly had problems with mozilla untill just very recently hope this helps

Video will not play in IE but works in other browsers

I have a flv video on a page which was placed there using Dreamweaver CS4. It plays in all other browsers I test it in except IE7. (Firefox, Chrome, Safari) Others verify it dooesn't play in IE7 also. Doesn't even play when I test in 'preview in browser' while in DW. Page passes validation. Can't for the life of me see why. Any ideas.
http://www.princetonmarketing.net/new/pmg-production.html

You've got all these references to scripts but I'm certain you don't need them all. Is this an older page created in an earlier version of DW?
<script type="text/javascript" src="swfobject.js"></script>
<script src="Scripts/swfobject_modified.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="Scripts/AC_RunActiveContent.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="Scripts/AC_RunActiveContent.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
Try commenting out the JavaScripts running on your page and then systematically re-introduce 1 at a time to see where the culprit is.

ICal could not log into the caldav server

Hi,
I have a OS X Lion server that i am trying to set up for home. I have made an account for myself and have got mail running for it but when I go to turn on Calendars and Reminders, i get the error message iCal could not log into the caldav server "me.com". One I am not sure how this has anything to do with me but anyway, the mail compnent works. Also when i go to the folder webdav via browser servername/webdav/ i get permission denied. I also get and Unathorized message when I try to specifically access the calendar via adress https://servername:8443/calendars/users/username/ I mention the permission denied stuff because i am assuming they are all connected to the Calendar service (ie it runs on caldav which runs on webdav). can anyone help with this as I would like to get this working.

One possiblity is that the user you created has not been granted access to the calendar service. How did you create the user on the server, via Server.app?
Are you able to browse to https://servername:8443/principals/users/username/ (of course substituting the appropriate server and user names)

HT200169 Having a problem with Logic 9 on a Mac Pro.Working on a lenghty song and apparently session got corrupted.Doesnt let me export tracks,program crashes.Already tried start brand new session with the tracks imported into it but still wont export.Sug

Hello,having a problem with Logic 9 on a Mac Pro.Working on a lenghty song and apparently session got corrupted.Doesnt let me export tracks,program crashes.Already tried start brand new session with the tracks imported into it but still wont export.Suggestions?

Thanks, Ian. Yeah, that's how I do it now...or with the controls in the left side pane. Still, I would have liked that quick on-the-spot edit capability...especially while sketching.
Ian Turner wrote:
Sorry Mark, you are out of luck as it does not do that - it works the same as L8. The way I would achieve that with more accuracy and control would be to route all the tracks you want to fade to a Bus then use volume automation on the bus. To do this you will need to add a standard audio track, then re-assign it using (Control Click on the track header) to the Bus track. You can then automate volume/plugins etc on the Bus track.

Lightroom CC 2015 HDR merge not importing into Catalog

When I use the new HDR merge in LR CC 2015, the new xxxxx-HDR.dng image is created but not imported into the catalog. All of the demo videos I've watched show the image being immediately imported into the catalog and visible on the filmstrip. Suggestions? TIA for your help.

Here is a +/- 3 EV HDR that both LR6/ACR9 and PS-HDR Pro do a reasonable job with, where the only adjustments are clicking Auto in LR:
Here are the three images, EV+0, EV-3, EV+3, where to get a reasonable view out the windows, the interior was nearly black and to get a reasonable view of the interior, the windows are nearly white.
Here is a side-by-side of the EV+0 shot with various adjustments applied vs the LR6/ACR9 HDR result with Auto clicked. Tonally they look similar. What is better with the LR6/ACR9 version is the view out the windows has more detail and less clipped, and the noise in the darker areas is much better, meaning LR6/ACR9 used more of the brighter image for the floor and more of the darkest image for the view out the windows, which is exactly what HDR is supposed to do:

H.264 will not import into DVDSP?

So I have been searching several discussion forums and the question I have seems to pop up in each of them, but is never answered???
Simply put, I have a FCP 6 project sequence that is 720p24frame which is an editing timebase of 59.94 with an aspect ratio of 960by720.
This is an 8.5 minute piece so I know that it will fit onto a regular DVD-R.
So I go through compressor and compress it into both an MPEG2 and H.264 - each at an HD bit rate.
Then I set up an HD project in DVDSP and try to import the two. The MPEG goes in fine and burns with no problems. My BlueRay/HDDVD combo player is on its way in the mail so I can't test it, but it will not play in my SD DVD player. Then I try to import the H.264 - It states something to the effect of not a compatible format....
That is my question - Why will the H.264 not import into an HDDVD project in DVDSP - all of the settings are correct from the initial edit - through compressor - through DVDSP.
Thank you for anyone who can help - we have a large festival coming up that has the option of 35mm or HDDVDs (we cannot afford a print).

So...this issue is somewhat solved.
I have done several exports using the provided H.264 presets then tweaking them each to my own set specifics. There are four places in the formats sections of compressor that have H.264 as a codec - one of these is for iPod and web so I disregarded that one completely.
I always applied the same settings as to have a control base when doing this experiement - I haven't done a science project in probably 15 years. I also pushed the bit-rates to the highest level.
After many hours in and out of compressor and DVDSP, I found only one of of the presets loaded properly into DVDSP - the 60min under HDDVD H.264 preset (altered to my higher bit-rate)
I am still waiting on my player to try it out, but it did burn fine. This is all so strange since all of my own settings (bit-rate) and other data was constant.
Oh well...at least I've got one test completely burnt.

Why do some AVI files not import into iMovie?

Some of my AVI video does not import into iMovie. When I try, it gives me a non-specific error message. Is there a way I can import it? Other AVI files import with no problem.

AVI is a container, not a format; the audio and video in an AVI may use any codec, and some codecs can't be used in Mac OS X. Installing Perian may help.

.CR2 will not import into iphoto 08 7.1.5

I have a few hundred photos taken by a friend that i am trying to import into my iphoto library.
Getting an unrecognizable file message.
I shoot on a Canon XSi in RAW and have no issues importing to iphoto, Apature or photoshop....
her images were shot on a Canon TSi in RAW and will not import into any of my programs.

The fact that you can use the Raws from your XSi is of no relevance.
The Raw from every model of camera is different. Note: that's every model not every brand. So, the NEF produced by a Nikon D40 is not the same as the NEF produced by a D60, the CR2 produced by a Canon 350 is not the same as the CR2 produced by a Canon 400.
Changing the Raw specification is one of the ways of upgrading the cameras.
IPhoto and Aperture support - or don't - the same cameras.

Problems with iTunes 8: NBC .m4v shows will not import into iPhone v2.02

I am a little confused. I have downloaded some NBC shows that are.m4v format, yet they will not import into my iPhone with iTunes 8. I receive the following error msg in iTunes when trying to sync:
Example "Mr. Monk Buys a House" was not copied to the iPhone
because it cannot be played on this iPhone.
Am I doing something wrong? Do I have to convert shows from iTunes to a different format before I can watch them?
PS Same error msg occurs with iTunes Podcast .mov format.
Any suggestions?

Well, after a little research in the iTunes Support Browser, Apple finally made the answer available.
Though Apple designs all products in iTunes to play on iPod type devices, the new HD programming will not.
The programs that are being "given away for free" are being promoted in HD format, and that's where the links on the iTunes page takes you. The iPhone 3G cannot handle HD programming, and thus the error message. (why couldn't they just have said that in the error msg, rather than have me go and look for half an hour. As my mother used to say, if it looks too good to be true, it probably is.
A couple of pointers for the free, give-away HD shows from NBC (iTunes way of telling NBC welcome back). These will not work on the iPhone 3G v2.02:
Mr. Monk Buys a House (HD)
Merit Badge: Pilot (HD)
30 Rock: Secrets and Lies (HD)
Battlestar Galactica, Season 4: He That Believeth in Me (HD)
etc.
Yes, if you look close enough in the show description, they are also making these available free in SD. Hope this research saves somebody a headache from buying the wrong programs.
You're welcome from a friend in Texas!

My Images won't open in Photoshop CS5 when I click on Edit in Lightroom - even though this option has been selected? To edit in Photoshop I have to export image from Lightroom then import into Photoshop. I have other programmes such as NIK and if I wish

My Images won't open in Photoshop CS5 when I click on Edit in Lightroom - even though this option has been selected? To edit in Photoshop I have to export image from Lightroom then import into Photoshop. I have other programmes such as NIK and if I wish to edit in these everything works fine.

Same here. I've never had trouble with this function before.
It opens the Photoshop application with all the menus/windows, but it never opens the actual image I chose to work on.
I'm on a Mac, using OS X Yosemite, 10.10.1 Lightroom is version 5.7 Photoshop is CS5, version 12.0.4
FWIW, I also can't automate>Photomerge ... . Makes me think Photoshop, not Lightroom, is all wacky. I tried dumping PS preferences

I have a Mac running 10.9.2. My apple wireless mouse will not scroll in Mail but works fine in other applications.
Any suggestions?

First, see this discussion. If the solution suggested there doesn't work for you, continue.
If you've installed a Mail plugin called "Mail Unread Menu" and you know how to remove it, please do that, then quit and relaunch Mail. Test. Otherwise, see below.
Back up all data.
1. Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
~/Library/Mail/Bundles
Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
Services ▹ Open
from the contextual menu.* A folder may open, or you may get an error message that the item can't be found. Either result is normal. If the folder does open and has contents, move the contents to the Desktop. Relaunch Mail and test. If there's no change, put the contents of the folder back and quit Mail again.
2. Repeat with this line:
/Library/Mail/Bundles
This time you may be prompted for your login password when you remove the items. Make sure they're removed from the folder and not just copied to the Desktop. If necessary, copy them first and then move the originals to the Trash.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

"Do not import duplicates" doesn't work

Hi everyone,
I've been using Aperture 3.5.1 for a while and the import process always worked fine, until suddenly the "Do not import duplicates" feature stopped working. Now any time I plug my iphone or insert the SD card the photos I've already imported appear again on the import screen.
The funny thing is that if I open the library with iPhoto and import the images with it, the duplicate pictures do not show up, so it's definitely an Aperture issue. For the time being I'll keep importing stuff via iPhoto and then switch to Aperture for editing, but I'd like to get this thing fixed. I filed a bug report on Apple's bug reporter last week but got no reply.
Cheers

Well, it appears that if you
- import an image
- change your system time zone (going west, if that matters)
- plug the device again
then Aperure doesn't recognize you've already imported that image. I don't see how this could be considered a normal behaviour, I call it a bug (a bug iPhoto doesn't have btw).
You left something out: How did you set the Time Zone brick in Aperture's Import panel, when you made that test with a differnet Time Zone? Aperture uses the current system time zone to interpret the time stamps on the images as the default time zone, when you do not set the "camera time" and "actual time" correctly in the Import panel. This way you will import the images with a different time stamp, and then they will be different for Aperture. The date/time of the file are differnet, the file will be considerd to be different. But you can prevent that by setting the time zone correctly in Aperture's Import panel.

I installed Adobe Web and Design Preium CS6 on windows 8.1, but when I open the program the size of the menus and tools are so tiny. It is not like that for Acrobat, but all the other programs. Is there a fix for this?

I installed Adobe Web and Design Preium CS6 on windows 8.1, but when I open the program the size of the menus and tools are so tiny. It is not like that for Acrobat, but all the other programs. Is there a fix for this?

Thanks for the help. I installed CC and it fixed everything but Photoshop. I guess I will have to use my old laptop for images until Adobe fixes the problem. Do you know of a place where we can send issues like these to Adobe?
