Why I can't send ical invitation

I am using iMac .When I send ical invitation, it shows a message that I need to open an account in Address Book.I already added my contact details in address book.why?what is the solution

Ni Shameer,
In addition to the suggestions by MadisonP, open Address Book, find your card and make sure that you choose Card>Make This My Card.
If that is unsuccessful, delete and recreate your card, making sure to once again choose "Make This My Card."

  • ICal can't send the invitation

    When I typed the first letters of a contact and then it suggested its full contact name as is in Adress BookI clicked it but got a response that iCal is unable to send the invitation though the contact is in my Adress Book and this is the first time really when it fails to send an invitation: it used to work nicely before. Help me, please to make it work again!
    All the best,

  • I can no longer send iCal invitations.  I have not changed any settings, passwords or email accounts.  No idea what to do.

    I can no longer send iCal invitations.  I have not changed any settings, passwords or email accounts.  No idea what to do.

    Greetings,
    Questions:
    What happens when you put in an email address in an event? (Make sure the email address is also in your addressbook (Macintosh HD > Applications > Addressbook)
    Are you using calendars that show up under "On My Mac" on the left hand side of iCal or are the calendars under a different heading?
    Troubleshooting:
    Make sure that you can send / receive email in the Apple Mail program.
    Make sure that the email address in Mail > Preferences > Accounts is also on your Addressbook card:Go to Addressbook > Card > Go to My Card -- The email address you are using to send receive messages on your computer should be on this card.
    If that doesn't take care of it:
    1. First make an iCal backup:  Click on each calendar on the left hand side of iCal one at a time highlighting it's name and then going to File Export > Export and saving the resulting calendar file to a logical location for safekeeping.
    2. Go to iCal > Quit iCal
    3. Remove the following to the trash and restart your computer:
    Home > Library > Caches > com.apple.ical
    Home > Library > Calendars > Calendar Cache, Cache, Cache 1, 2, 3, etc. (Do not remove Sync Cache or Theme Cache if present)
    4. Launch iCal and test.
    If the issue persists:
    1. Go to iCal > Quit iCal
    2. Remove the following to the trash and restart your computer:
    Home > Library > Caches > com.apple.ical
    Home > Library > Calendars > Calendar Cache, Cache, Cache 1, 2, 3, etc. (Do not remove Sync Cache or Theme Cache if present)
    Home > Library > Preferences > com.apple.ical (There may be more than one of these. Remove them all.)
    --- NOTE: Removing these files may remove any shared (CalDAV) calendars you may have access to. You will have to re-add those calendars to iCal > Preferences > Accounts.
    3. Launch iCal and test.
    Hope that helps!

  • Can't download iCal invitations (.ics) anymore. anyone else having similar problems?

    Until a couple of days ago, I was able to send iCal invitations from my ipad or iphone to my work address and download the .ics file and import it into Outlook for Mac (since sync services is gone or useless).  Now, opening the invitation sends me to the icloud webpage like before but when I try to download the .ics/meeting invitation, it says that iCould can't find that page.  Any suggestions?  Thanks

    Then how come it works fine for me, did they forget to forget to change it for me?

  • How do I send iCal invites on OS 10.6

    How do I send iCal invites on OS 10.6

    Seems Apple is making things more difficult with every OS update. Back in the day you used to be able to organize your applications instead of having them all in one folder. You used to have a lot more freedom. More and more it is just easier to use a third party app. So I'm gonna install Thunderbird until Apple comes up with an easy way to fix the mail app. it seems that eveything in help says you just gotta reinstall the system from scratch. I would rather just use an open source product that I can put into any forlder I want without having to worry about it screwing itself up. Had similar experience with Safari now it seems like it is time to get rid of Mail.

  • Why I can't send emails to some address and also i...

    Hello!
    Why I can't send  email using my ovi mail account to some email address and also i can't send email using Thunderbird? So what is the problem?
    I can't send email to any address using Mozilla Thunderbird. Every time show "Login to server mail.ovi.com failed." but Thunderbird download my ovi account email without any problem. how do i fix this error. I don't know where to post this matter!

    Yahoo has messed with their stuff lately (honestly they've been messing with their servers for months)
    One thing would be if you guys wanted to use the yahoo mail app, or there have been other users posting solutions that they say work for them

    These have applied to people not able to get mail but changing the settings may help you and your wife. (My yahoo is still working so I haven't needed to try any of these)
    I've noticed with my Yahoo that they've changed their login protocols. For example 'stay signed in' is always clicked and the push is for people to merge multiple accounts to access their multiple yahoo from one account/sign in instead of signing out/in to access different accounts. I'm wondering if that change is what's messing with the protocols needed for iOS mail to work. But no one really knows for sure (and neither Apple or Yahoo will comment on the issue)
    About all users can do is find work arounds that work for them.
    If these don't work or if you don't want to use the yahoo mail app, you might try using safari to go to yahoo.com and access your mail that way.

  • Problems sending ical invites to gmail addresses?

    Problems sending iCal invites to people with gmail. Is there a fix?
    Many of the people I invite who have gmail, never get the invite even though they have an iPhone.

    Has she looked in her junk folders? Has she made sure your address is in her contacts in Hotmail? Has she made sure your address is not blocked in Hotmail? The problem is obviously on her end as your emails are not getting through to her Hotmail account. Good luck.

  • How to create My Card so that I can send ical invitations

    Hi,
    Am trying to send out invitations on iMac OS X and get the response that I must set up a personal card in contacts first.
    Ive done this, the advice from past support groups is to mark the card as 'My Card' however there is no option to do this.
    By the way does it matter if My Card is on iCloud or iMac address book?
    Finally, since synchronising my iPad with iMac and backing up to the iMac Ive lost the 'Invite' option on my iPad calendar.
    Any thoughts?
    Many thanks

  • Sending iCal invites with Scripts

    Hello,
    I have created an Applescript to open a website for an iCal event and invited my boss. However, when he receives the invite, he does not receive the script (nor does his iCal show an alarm if I have set one on my end either). Is there a way that iCal can automatically set the alarm for both myself and the invitee (in this case, my boss)? And, can I have the invite sent with the script attached? Without having to send a separate email, then going onto his computer and setting up the invite he has accepted?
    In this example, I created an iCal event to open ebay at a certain time in order to bid on an item. I want him to have the script (or the event alarm) sent to him when I send him the iCal event invite. Hope this is clear.
    Thanks!
    Jennifer

    Is there a way that iCal can automatically set the alarm for both myself and the invitee?
    No. The invitation does not include alarm details.
    Can I have the invite sent with the script attached?
    No. You have no control over the contents of the email sent to the attendees.
    Why not just send him an email with the url at the appropriate time? You can use Andreas Amann's Mailscripts to schedule a message for delivery - and since now it is your message, if you really want the complexity you can send him an applescript attachment.

  • Can I send email invitations to local users instead of push notifications?

    I see in the documentation that "Attendees can be invited to events via email if they don’t have an iCal Server account."  Is there a way to send email invitations to local users instead of push notifications?  The server would be migrating from Exchange and everyone is accustomed to/wants email invitations for calendar events.
    I've already purchased a copy of Lion Server (10.7.4) and pretty much everything is setup.  Sadly I'm just now running into this issue.  Email invitations to non iCal server accounts work fine.
    Thanks for the help.
