Do my family all need to use the same Apple ID to share Calendars and Contacts ?

Shared Calendar updates not appearing on iPhone ?

[Stephen Chape]

Hi folks.

This is a conundrum ??

My wife has an iPhone SE and myself an iPhone 6s (both with latest iOS)
Our son is a pilot living overseas.
He shares his flying roster with us via Calendar.

Until a couple of months ago the updates always appeared (through iCloud) on 
both our iMacs and both our iPhones.
However a couple of months ago both iPhones stopped receiving his updates.
But oddly both iMacs still received them.

I have tried numerous ideas to return this to normal but failed.
Both our iPhones use 4 Calendars (all linked to iCloud), our son’s being called 
DAVID.
Then a couple of days ago I tried changing my iPhone Default Calendar from HOME 
to DAVID.
His Roster immediately appeared on my iPhone.

So I tried the same with my wife’s iPhone and bingo … same result.
Then I changed them both back to Default HOME and both iPhones have retained 
the DAVID Calendar.

None of this makes any sense to me and I wonder now if this has to be the 
process with every DAVID update ?
Or does anyone know if something else needs adjusting to prevent this ?

Regards,
Stephen Chape

No, don’t muck around with it. Just leave it to sort itself out. The worst that 
can happen is you end up with a folder with a bit of bloat. If the calendar is 
now working just move on.

Re: Lost calendar data

[Allen Gladwell]

Many thanks Peter I understand now 

My Library/Calendar folder seems to have a lot of junk (empty folders and 
files) in it and includes five .calendar folders. I’ve identified the current 
one with an Info.plist dated yesterday. Would it be ok to clean out the rest do 
you think or is it best to leave well alone?

Thanks Allen

Your Calendar data is in ~/Library/Calendars. The ~/Library folder is normally 
kept hidden in modern versions of MacOS, so in case you don’t know how to find 
it, go to Finder and hold down the Option key while choosing “Go” from the Menu 
Bar. The Library folder will appear as a choice. Don’t try to make sense of the 
contents of the Calendars folder - if you think its contents have been damaged 
in someway, duplicate it (precautionary step) and replace the original folder 
with a known good backup copy.

Re: Lost calendar data

[Stephen Chape]

Good news Allen !

My Calendar and Contacts are on iCloud.
I find it useful because my Mac, my iPhone and my wife’s iPad, Mac and her 
iPhone all use the same data.
This means any changes we make are reflected on all devices.

Re: Lost calendar data

[Allen Gladwell]

Hi Stephen

I went onto something else and when I went back to calendar I touched the space 
bar and it all came back so panic over for now. I had hit the space bar before 
many times before, as well as other keys, so I don’t  know why it worked this 
time

I don’t use iCloud but it sounds like a good idea to at least park my calendar 
there in case it happens again. It was very scary and worrying when it happened

I presume it’s backed up both on Time machine and Carbon Copy Cloner but I was 
hoping someone could tell me how to get the data back from a backup. Presumably 
the data is kept somewhere

Thanks Allen

Hi Allen.
I have not encountered this, but perhaps download Calendar data from iCloud.
I am assuming you sync Calendar with iCloud.

Lost calendar data

[Allen Gladwell]

Hi Everyone

I seem to have lost all my calendar data. There is no data showing. I think I 
touched one of the keys while calendar and suddenly its all gone

Does anyone know how I can reverse this and get my data back as some of it is 
very important.
Presumably I can use Time Machine but I don’t know which file or folder to look 
for

Re: Simplifying Calendar OKs on a Mac

[Stephen Chape]

Hi Daniel … thank you.
It was not ticked, so I have ticked it to see what happens.
I have been away for a few days and just returned to 144 new additions or 
changes to his Calendar.
OMG … I have to tick OK for every one 
I will let you know how this goes.

Re: Simplifying Calendar OKs on a Mac

[Daniel Kerr]

Hi Stephen

Another thought on this one….
For the Shared Calendar you’re using. Right click on the calendar itself, and 
choose “Get Info”. On the little drop down window that shows up, there is an 
“Ignore Alerts”. If that’s ticked then try un-ticking it then click OK. See if 
the alerts stop for the new ones that come in afterwards.
That can be another place they are coming from as well.

Kind regards
Daniel

Hi Daniel.
He has just gone back to work after some leave.
And those Calendar updates are back.
Got 65 in this batch and need to OK each one individually.

Dislocated Finger ?
You really should get off that Apple Keyboard Daniel and get a decent DAS 
Keyboard like me.
You need one with a 5 Star Crash Rating.

Ta mate !

Re: Simplifying Calendar OKs on a Mac

[Daniel Kerr]

Hi Stephen

Try ticking it and then un-ticking it again, then see what happens with new 
“changes” that comet through.

I tested it last night and when it was ticked, I got the “!” Showing like you 
mentioned (which I normally get). Without it ticked, the shared changes just 
changed with no notification or the “OK” to click. So that setting did adjust 
it for my Calendar. (In Mojave).
Also check what setting he has for the shared calendar as well, as that can 
have an affect on it also.

Hope that helps.
Kind regards
Daniel

Re: Simplifying Calendar OKs on a Mac

[Daniel Kerr]

Hi Stephen

Try the following should solve it -
In Calendar. Go to the Calendar menu then Preferences. 
Go too Advanced. 
Un-tick “Ask before sending changes to events”.
You should then find new changes just happen automatically when a calendar is 
updated or refreshed (eg using Command-R to force a Refresh).

Hope that helps.
Kind regards
Daniel

Re: Simplifying Calendar OKs on a Mac

[Stephen Chape]

Hi Ronni.

This seems like an awkward one and I don’t think there is a solution really.

For example:
Yesterday I noticed there were 72 additions to David’s roster (each one on a 
different day).
So I had to open Calendar and click the “72” in the top left of my screen.
This displays a vertical list of the 72 changes.
Then I must click the OK button on each one to add it to his Calendar on my Mac.

A few days ago he had 102 changes …. phew !!

When he was commanding Emirates passenger flights these were much fewer and 
rarely changed.
But since he moved to Emirates Freighters these changes are incessant.

Perhaps something I just have to accept 浪

Re: Simplifying Calendar OKs on a Mac

[Ronda Brown]

Hi Stephen,

I’m not sure if my reply will help at all as I haven’t experienced exactly your 
situation.
But I often have to change recurring events.

How to change multiple events at once on calendar:

Did you set it for repeating? If you just set individual events and just 
created the same event on different days without some type of repeating, then 
you would not be able to change them all at the same time. 

If they are repeating, then you can open the next one in the future, you cannot 
use one of the past ones, and it should ask if you want to change all or just 
the one.

Sorry if my reply does not really relate to your situation.

Kind Regards,
Ronni

Simplifying Calendar OKs on a Mac

[Stephen Chape]

Hi folks,

My son (who is a pilot living in Dubai) shares his iCloud Calendar (flight 
roster) with me and my wife.
This means we always know where in the world he is.

When we receive his Calendar updates on our iMacs we have to Click OK to each 
update in order to install them.
Often his updates can number 70 or more (one for each day) at a time because 
his roster changes frequently.
This is a very laborious task having to click OK to 70 or more daily changes 
each time there is an update.

I cannot find a way on our iMacs to OK each batch of updates in Calendar, 
rather each day individually.
Although I did find a way to make all OKs automatic on our iPhones and iPad.

Any help with this would be greatly appreciated please 梁

Stephen Chape

Auto shared calendar additions ?

[Stephen Chape]

Hi folks.

My son lives overseas and shares his Calendar (Pilot Roster) with us.
However each time he gets roster changes (which can be 60 at a time) they come 
to my Calendar Inbox.
Then I must tap OK on my iPhone for every one to insert them into our Calendar.
Pretty laborious job.

He and I have resolved this on both our iPhones.
I went to Calendar/Calendars then touched the “i” next to his Calendar.
Then turned off Show Changes and turned off Event Alerts.
Now his Calendar (Roster) changes download and install automatically in the 
background.

However I cannot find how to do the same thing for his Calendar on both our 
iMacs.
Both iMacs are running latest MacOS.

Any ideas would be most welcome please ?

Thank you Ronni.

I have changed it to 30 minutes before and “only on this Mac”.

Hi Stephen,

Just a very quick suggestion. 
Check the iCloud Calendar  Events Defaults on your Macs Calendar App
Calendar > Preferences > Alerts 
Account: iCloud - Events: 1 hour before 
All Day Events: 1 day before (9AM) 
Birthdays: 1 day before (9AM)

iPhone Calendar Alerts

[Stephen Chape]

Hi folks,

A couple of updates ago a Calendar behaviour changed on my iPhone 6s and my 
wife’s iPhone 5.
Every Event that we enter on Calendar gives a 15 minute Alert,
It doesn’t seem to matter that we set first and second Alerts to anything else.
We still get a 15 minute Alert.

I have checked Settings on our iPhones and the default Alerts are set to “None”.

Any ideas please ?

Calendar Unable to send invitation

[Alan Smith]

I scheduled a meeting via Calendar and want to send invitations via email.  I 
haven’t used this feature before.  After adding the first name I then get a 
message “Calendar will be unable to send the invitation … you need to create an 
address card for yourself in Contacts.”

I deleted my old Contacts card and created a new one.  Still stuck!  Any advice?

Re: Calendar Unable to send invitation

[Ronda Brown]

Hi Alan,

You need to make your card in the Address Book, your own as follows:

1.  Go to your card (your name, etc) and highlight it  (click on your name 
which will turn the font from black to blue)
2.  Go to Card from the menu up on top and from the drop-down-menu click on 
Make This My Card - that will make that card, or whichever you had previously 
highlighted, YOUR OWN and Calendar will use that to send any/all invites out 
via email.

I should mention that to undo the above, click on a different card and follow 
the same steps. 
That will remove the Make This My Card off the current and apply it to the 
new one.

Cheers,
Ronni

You probably followed the suggestions in my last reply to you below.
If all settings are correct try Restarting your Mac and do a 'Reset' of your

 Hi Robert,
 
 Please keep your replies to the same Subject thread and don't delete 
 previous comments in the messages. I haven't time to scroll back through 
 emails to check what has already been mentioned.
 
 I've pasted your last reply below:
 Yosemite is synced to iOS8 device (iPhone 5S)
 I am signed in to iCloud
 Calendars  Contacts are selected ?On? on Mac  iPhone.
 Neither will sync !
 
 
 Are all your Contacts and Calendar events showing correctly in iCloud - when 
 you sign in to icloud.com?
 
 The settings are correct in the Contacts App  Calendar App on your Mac.
 Contacts  All Contacts are under iCloud?
 Calendar  Calendar?
 
 On your iPhone  Settings  Mail, Contacts, Calendars  do you have the same 
 Default Account Address as your Mac... iCloud?
 Scroll down to Calendars  Default Calendar - Calendar?
 
 On your iPhone open Contacts (in utilities) click on Groups - All Contacts 
 is ticked
 On your iPhone open Calendars - tap Calendars at the bottom (Red text) All 
 Calendars are ticked 
 
 If all above are correct:
 1. Have tried a restart of your Mac and a 'Reset' your iPhone 5s?
 To Reset your iPhone
 a) Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time 
 for at least 10 seconds.
 b) Ignore the Red Slider that appears on the screen and KEEP holding both 
 buttons down until the Apple Logo appears.
 Release both buttons when the Apple Logo appears
 The iPhone will restart.

Re: Calendar/Contacts not Syncing -Ronni -please help!

[Ronda Brown]

Hi Robert,

Please keep your replies to the same Subject thread and don't delete previous 
comments in the messages. I haven't time to scroll back through emails to check 
what has already been mentioned.

I've pasted your last reply below:
 Yosemite is synced to iOS8 device (iPhone 5S)
 I am signed in to iCloud
 Calendars  Contacts are selected “On” on Mac  iPhone.
 Neither will sync !


Are all your Contacts and Calendar events showing correctly in iCloud - when 
you sign in to icloud.com?

The settings are correct in the Contacts App  Calendar App on your Mac.
Contacts  All Contacts are under iCloud?
Calendar  Calendar?

On your iPhone  Settings  Mail, Contacts, Calendars  do you have the same 
Default Account Address as your Mac... iCloud?
Scroll down to Calendars  Default Calendar - Calendar?

On your iPhone open Contacts (in utilities) click on Groups - All Contacts is 
ticked
On your iPhone open Calendars - tap Calendars at the bottom (Red text) All 
Calendars are ticked 

If all above are correct:
1. Have tried a restart of your Mac and a 'Reset' your iPhone 5s?
To Reset your iPhone
a) Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time 
for at least 10 seconds.
b) Ignore the Red Slider that appears on the screen and KEEP holding both 
buttons down until the Apple Logo appears.
Release both buttons when the Apple Logo appears
The iPhone will restart.

Cheers,
Ronni

Hi Robert,

Aren't you running Mavericks OS X 10.9?  Mavericks no longer includes Sync 
Services.
The loss of Sync Services means - you can no longer use iTunes (via Wi-Fi or 
USB) to sync calendars, contacts, and notes between your Mac and iOS devices. 

You use iCloud Are you having a problem with iCloud not syncing? 

Check the Calendars and Contacts are in iCloud groups and not On My Mac groups.
Only Calendars and Contacts in iCloud groups will sync.

A) If your Contacts are not syncing to iCloud:
First check that all your settings are correct, that contact syncing is checked 
on all devices
 (System Preferences  iCloud on a mac and Settings  iCloud on a iPhone, iPad 
or iPod).

Make sure the Contacts you are adding are added to your 'iCloud' group and not 
an 'On My Mac', or other non iCloud group (you can do this by checking in 
groups), non iCloud contacts will not sync.

If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your contacts are in 
the iCloud group, you might try unchecking contact syncing in the iCloud 
settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling contact syncing.
--
B) If your Calendars are not syncing:
Go into Settings  mail, contacts, calendars and under Calendars look at what 
the Default Calendar account is - If it doesn’t say iCloud change to iCloud.

Cheers,
Ronni

Umm,..wasn't SyncServices put back with 10.9.3?
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5847

It was 10.9.0 through to 10.9.2 that it no longer synced with USB,…and then 
they added it back with 10.9.3
I could be wrong though,…..

Re: Iphone no longer syncing with Computer -Contacts and Calendar

Yes you are correct Daniel... As if you are ever incorrect ;-))

But I seem to remember giving instructions to Robert for setting up iCloud to 
sync Contacts  Calendars some time back.
That is why I replied as I have.

Re: Synch of Calendar

[Ronni Brown]

Hi Severin,

Just so I am sure... are you using iCloud to sync your Calendars on your iPhone?
If so and your iCloud Account settings are correct:

1. Tap Settings  iCloud, turn Calendars OFF and then back ON again.
2.  Reset your iPhone by holding the On/Off, sleep button and the Home button 
down at the same time for 10 seconds until you see the Apple logo.

Cheers,
Ronni

10.9.3 Restores Local Contact and Calendar Sync, Improves 4K Support

10.9.3 Restores Local Contact and Calendar Sync, Improves 4K Support

Apple has released OS X Mavericks 10.9.3 Update, which brings a pixel-doubled 
Retina mode to external 4K displays and restores contact and calendar syncing 
between a Mac and iOS devices in iTunes. The Retina mode makes content much 
sharper, rather than just using all the pixels to create a truly huge desktop.

Mavericks 10.9.3 iTunes 11.1.6 Betas restoration of iTunes syncing for 'Contacts Calendar'

[Ronda Brown]

Hi WAMUG members,

For members who did not like being forced to sync 'Contacts  Calendar' with 
iCloud.

New to both OS X Mavericks 10.9.3 and iTunes 11.1.6 betas is the restoration 
of iTunes syncing for contacts and calendar data over USB and Wi-Fi, a feature 
deprecated from the current version of iTunes in favor of Apple's iCloud 
solution. Combined with the latest iTunes 11.1.6 beta, developers can now sync 
contact and calendar data on an iPhone, iPad or iPod with a host Mac.

Re: Repeats in Calendar

[Barry Sexstone]

Hi Ronni

After a restart (not the first since I discovered the problem as this was my 
first thing to do) I now find I have the repeat when I create a new event.   
It is only the old events which don't show it when I double click them.   I can 
live with this situation as I seldom have to modify the repetition of events I 
have already created.

Once again thanks for your help and interest.

 Then Double-click an event in your Calendar to bring up the popover with the

 If this is working as it should, there is something wrong with your desktop

Re: Repeats in Calendar

[Ronda Brown]

Hi Barry,

I meant to get back to you and apologize for Bill ;-) 

I was also going to ask you were you able to create a new recurring event in 
Calendar.
And if the recurring events had been originally created pre Lion  Mountain 
Lion in iCal. 
As I have heard of the 'repeat' missing on old recurring events which then can 
not be edited.

If you do need to change one of the old recurring events, try deleting the 
event and then create it new.

Good to hear Calendar is functioning as it should do. I don't like an 
application not working properly, the problem has to be solved!

Thanks for getting back and letting us know.

Cheers,
Ronni

Re: Repeats in Calendar

Hi Barry,

Are you using Calendar version 6? What OS X are you running?
What view do you have Calendar showing... Day, week, Month, or year?

If you select the event you want to set to repeat - then Go to Edit  Get Info, 
does it show you the window with All-Day: Repeat: Show as: etc?

If you still cannot see these windows check whether it is happening in another 
User Account on your Mac.

Re: Repeats in Calendar

[Barry Sexstone]

Hi Ronni

Calendar V 6.0 (1648)  
  OS 10.8.4  (apologies my simple signature was in use) 
Month view
EditGet Info shows window with allday Show as etc but NO repeat!!
I will have to leave this little niggling problem for now,  I was hoping I was 
just missing something obvious,   I will come back to it later and let you know 
how I get on.
I only have one user account on this machine and don't want to create another 
just for this minor problem.

Thanks very much for your time

 Hi Barry,
 
 Are you using Calendar version 6? What OS X are you running?
 What view do you have Calendar showing... Day, week, Month, or year?
 
 If you select the event you want to set to repeat - then Go to Edit  Get 
 Info, does it show you the window with All-Day: Repeat: Show as: etc?
 
 If you still cannot see these windows check whether it is happening in 
 another User Account on your Mac.

 Double-click the event, and then click Edit 
 Choose how often you want the event to occur from the Repeat pop-up menu.
 
 If you are not seeing the pop-up menu after you double-click an event , go 
 to Edit  Show Inspector.
 
 Also check I. Calendar  Preferences  Advanced that you have Open events

Re: Repeats in Calendar

[Ronda Brown]

Hi Bill,

Is this an iCloud Calendar that the Repeat does not show when you 
double-click an event?

If so can you Edit the Calendar event on the iCloud website Calendar?
www.icloud.com - log in and click on Calendar.
Then Double-click an event in your Calendar to bring up the popover with the 
event details, change the Repeat, then click OK.

If this is working as it should, there is something wrong with your desktop 
Calendar data that will need further investigation.

Cheers,
Ronni

Re: Repeats in Calendar

[Barry Sexstone]

Hi Ronni

Bill??

Not an iCloud purely on the desktop.

I can edit events just not add repeats.   As these are few and far between I am 
not worried at the moment.

Re: Calendar

[Daniel Kerr]

If it gets really annoying you can always have a look at Snooze. - it's 
about $2 and does what Apple seem to have removed.
(Perhaps they'll add it in later….)
Link to the software is here - 
https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/snoozemaster/id614955483?mt=12
I haven't used it, but was aware it.

Hope that helps.

Kind regards

 Hi Brett, Peter and All
 
 I have found you can still shift the reminder further into the future. Not 
 quite as simple a drag down option as before but it can be done.
 
 When the reminder comes up you have three options, click close, snooze or on 
 the event itself.
 
 Clicking on the event brings it up in calendar, click again on the calendar 
 to edit event and where you originally may have set a reminder to minutes 
 before you can advance the reminder to minutes, hours, days after. 
 
 More involved than before but can still be done pretty quickly.

What gets me is I did many searches, yet this app never showed up.

And as I have mentioned before, knowing the right question is as important 
(maybe more) as the answer.

Re: IOS 5 Calendar Issues - gdgt

Hi Michael

Yeh sometimes a few issues but wouldn't have related to yours as such as you 
weren't running iOS5 at that stage :) 
That was more an Outlook - AddressBook sync issue. Well more Outlook is bad 
issue lol. :)

And yes there seems to be a few minor hiccups with either a) iOS5 b) iPhone 
4s battery c) a mixture of both. 
I've been following quite a few threads on it as originally the battery used to 
drain quite quickly. I was struggling to get through a full day on one charge 
(albeit the day was 7am to about 930pm by the time I was getting home). 
Also the threads with  noisy phone calls and static which I've had (and 
Matt). 
The battery I've found a bit better after doing a restore of iOS5 and also 
turning off Settings - Location Services - System Services - Compass 
Calibration and Location Based iAds and Setting Time Zone. As per one thread. 
After turning these off I've noticed a  slight improvement. 
Oh and I got the hot phone a few times too. 
So I'm waiting for iOS5.0.1 (or 5.0.2). 
Don't get me wrong I love the new phone - wouldn't go back to the 3Gs. Just 
waiting for the little hiccups to disappear. :)

Kind regards
Daniel

Yes Michael and Daniel, Apple acknowledged the iPhone 4S battery life problem 
that afflicts some users a couple of weeks back. If you don't already know you 
will be happy to learn that Apple has confirmed that the next release of iOS 5 
will have a fix. One of my students has this problem so I have been following 
developments closely and keeping them informed:

Apple confirms iOS 5 update to address battery life bugs affecting iPhone users

Re: IOS 5 Calendar Issues - gdgt

[Daniel Kerr]

Yeh saw that.
Had also read though it doesn't seem to fix some of the sound call problems. 
as yet. Maybe later :o)
I'm not stressed as so far all the work arounds seem to keep it working,
And the enjoyment of the phone overrides some of the little hiccups. Plus. 
theres more important things to stress about,... :o) lol

Besideshow boring would be a perfect world be anywaylol :)

Re: MobileMe calendar upgrade - how to amend email address?

[Steven Knowles]

Thanks Ronni.

I gave that a test. Sending the Mail Event went okay. When it came to accepting 
the incoming .ics file (I sent it to myself using a different mail address), 
iCal threw up:

The server responded with an error. Access to “New Event” in “Name of 
Calendar” in account “u...@me.com” is not permitted. The server responded:
“HTTP/1.1 403 Forbidden” to operation CalDAVWriteEntityQueueableOperation.

The options to select from are Go Offline or Revert to Server (the latter 
being the default). If Go Offline is selected, the entry is inserted into 
iCal. If Revert to Server is selected, the entry is not placed in iCal. I 
guess the recipient wouldn't ordinarily be me, so not something I'd need to 
worry about.

Anyway, could be a 2nd best option in the interim as you say Ronni, the 
downside being no auto notifications and audit trail of who's declined/accepted 
etc.

Cheers, Steven

 Hi Steven,
 
 Perhaps a work around for you until something is resolved in MobileMe.
 I just tried this and it works fine, you can use any email address you choose.
 
 1. Create an Event in iCal
 
 2. Control-Click (Right-Click) and select “Mail Event”
 
 It’s easy and it sends a standard calendar event to the recipient.
 With a message informing them of the event you have invited them to, and  “To 
 add it to your calendar, click the link below.
 Which is a standard iCal.ics 
 
 I know its not what you want, but might do in the interim.
 
 Cheers,
 Ronni

Re: MobileMe calendar upgrade - how to amend email address?

[Ronda Brown]

Works for me Steven.

When the email with the Subject: You’ve been invited to “ Event arrives in 
Apple Mail Application.
I click on Accept button
Then Safari Opens
click ‘download .ics’
And Add Event is then added to into iCal

——
To invite people to an event:

• Make sure you’ve created a card for yourself in Address Book (in your 
Applications folder).

To create your own card, open Address Book and click the Add (+) button below 
the Name column. Then enter your information (be sure to include all of your 
email addresses) and choose Card  Make This My Card. (For more information, 
open Address Book and choose Help  Address Book Help.)

• Double-click the event you want to invite people to. If necessary, 
click Edit to open the event editor.

• To add the first person, click Add Invitees and type the email 
address for the person you want to invite.

If someone has already been invited to the event, click to the right of the 
name, and then type the email address for the person you want to invite.

If you’re inviting someone whose contact information is stored in your Mac OS X 
Address Book, start typing their name, iCal completes the email address for 
you. Use the arrow keys on your keyboard to choose the name and address you 
want, and then press Return to select it.

• To invite more than one person, press the Return key (or type a 
comma) after each address, and then type the next one.

If your contacts are stored in Address Book, you can also use the Address panel 
in iCal to quickly add invitees to your event.

• To remove an address from the invitees list, click the arrow next to 
the name, and choose Remove Invitee (this doesn’t remove the person from your 
Address Book).

• When you’re ready to invite these guests to your event, click the 
Send button at the bottom of the event editor.


By default, guests receive the event invitation in an email message and in 
their iCal Notifications box if they use iCal (invitees can change this setting 
in iCal preferences). If you make any changes to the event, be sure to click 
the Send button again.

As guests respond to your invitation through iCal, messages from them appear in 
your iCal Notifications box. To view their responses, click the Notifications 
button in the lower-left corner of the iCal window (looks like an envelope).

Cheers,
Ronni

Hi Steven

I don’t have an answer for you, other than send feedback to Apple.

This is what Apple Support had to say:

I do understand your concerns and see how this issue can be frustrating. 
Unfortunately at this time The new MobileMe calendar does not support inviting 
people to calendar events with personal emails. I do encourage you to leave 
feedback about this feature as our engineers do look at customer feedback to 
help make our features to customers better.”

Re: MobileMe calendar upgrade - how to amend email address?

Hi Steven,

Such a negative knee jerk reaction does make me less likely to respond. Apple's 
objective in serving the majority of its customers may not always align with 
your personal objectives.

In any case I have just tested a work around that may or may not be useful in 
your case. One can create a calendar that is not part of Mobile Me by selecting 
in iCal  File = New Calendar = On My Mac. An invitation sent from this 
calendar will then originate from your local Mail application rather than from 
the Mobile Me server. If that meets your requirements you can then transfer 
your appointments to this calendar with an export from the old calendar and an 
import to the new. The drawback of this workaround is that the calendar on your 
Mac will no longer be synchronised with Mobile Me.

Another work around which likely does not apply in your case but may apply to 
some other members of WAMUG is that one can register one's own domain name with 
your Mobile Me account. I believe that then the mobile me email would then 
appear to come from your own domain name.

Cheers,
Carlo

Re: MobileMe calendar upgrade - how to amend email address?

[Steven Knowles]

Thanks Carlo. I appreciate you taking the time to take a look at the problem, 
it's a good suggestion. It won't work for me due to the sync issue, but may 
work for others.

Yes, my response may be negative, but no apology there. Apple's move is 
negative. I don't consider it negative on the basis of my personal objectives 
not being aligned with Apple's wider objectives. My ego falls short of me 
thinking I'm the most important Mac user and therefore all users should think 
and use their Apple equipment like me. However Apple has:

Encouraged paying MobileMe users to upgrade to the new Calendar without 
giving prior warning of this important issue. What about business users who, 
for privacy reasons, don't want his or her personal email address divulged to 
all? By the time it's discovered, it's too late. I can think of plenty of 
scenarios in which this could prove embarrassing for those who prefer to, or 
even need to, have clear demarcation between personal and business 
communications. Unintended disclosure of a personal email address can lead to 
the uncovering of all kinds of additional details of an individual.

Removed choice in terms of how a user's calendar works, again with no advanced 
notice.


knee-jerk - adjective. automatic and unthinking (Apple dictionary).
 
My reaction is neither automatic nor unthinking. I've been an advocate for 
Apple since 1994, and I remain so, but after thinking about it, albeit it 
didn't take me long to decide, I stand by my view that the move is either 
sneaky or stupid, mainly because of the wider ramifications it will have for 
quite a few, and the nature of those ramifications, ie. potential breach of 
privacy. I don't need to align my view with those who don't think the move is 
neither sneaky nor stupid. We're not living in a police state.

As terrific as most members of this group, including me, think Apple and its 
products generally are, Apple shouldn't be protected from the critical voice of 
its users, minority or otherwise, when an arguably dud decision is made. Any 
organisation which takes that view has a short life expectancy. Sure, some 
users will think the me.com only is a fine decision, others won't, and others 
won't give a hoot either way. But I'd be prepared to bet a large sum of money 
that I'm not a tiny minority of iCal /MobileMe users who don't want calendar 
invitations to come from an email address which invitees have never heard of. 
Especially when the user, a paying user mind you, finds out only after the 
event.

No hard feelings Carlo, just healthy debate and me getting my back up 
momentarily about what may be  well  a knee-jerk comment from your side.

Cheers, Steven

 Hi Steven,
 
 Such a negative knee jerk reaction does make me less likely to respond. 
 Apple's objective in serving the majority of its customers may not always 
 align with your personal objectives.
 
 In any case I have just tested a work around that may or may not be useful in 
 your case. One can create a calendar that is not part of Mobile Me by 
 selecting in iCal  File = New Calendar = On My Mac. An invitation sent from 
 this calendar will then originate from your local Mail application rather 
 than from the Mobile Me server. If that meets your requirements you can then 
 transfer your appointments to this calendar with an export from the old 
 calendar and an import to the new. The drawback of this workaround is that 
 the calendar on your Mac will no longer be synchronised with Mobile Me.
 
 Another work around which likely does not apply in your case but may apply to 
 some other members of WAMUG is that one can register one's own domain name 
 with your Mobile Me account. I believe that then the mobile me email would 
 then appear to come from your own domain name.
 
 Cheers,
 Carlo

Re: MobileMe calendar upgrade - how to amend email address?

Hi Steven,

I harbour no hard feelings at all for holding a rational debate. I know that it 
is annoying when an application or service does not meet our needs, 
particularly when it is a paid service and in your position I may feel the way 
you do. I do, however, want to put forward the case for a third motive (other 
than sneaky or stupid) for the design choices made in Mobile Me. It is the 
technical reason that the new Mobile Me service operates the way it does.

Mobile Me is Apple's attempt to provide, for personal use, a low cost 
functional equivalent to Microsoft's Exchange Server. The features in 
particular that they wish to replicate are the sharing of calendars and of 
appointments -- no mean feat. Microsoft's solution is to charge a small 
business a large sum of money for a dedicated Exchange Server and computer (one 
small 100 person company that I worked for, paid $25,000 for their Exchange 
Server hardware and license). Running an Exchange Server is quite an experience 
and seems to use a good portion of the system admin's time.

Mobile Me cannot match the experience provided by a personal dedicated Exchange 
Server but aims to deliver a subset of the features that Apple thinks users 
will find most useful.

In the previous version of Mobile Me the calendar was local to your computer. 
Any invites were sent from your local computer and accepted back to your local 
computer. This made it easy to send the email from your local account.

The new version of Mobile Me (previously in beta) allows one to share calendars 
with friends or to publish a calendar to a group. It also allows one to send 
invitations that require RSVPs. If you put an event on a shared calendar the 
event becomes visible to all those who are subscribing to your shared calendar. 
The shared event will also display the list of invitees and those who have 
accepted.

The architecture Apple chose to solve this problem is to host all the shared 
calendars on a (presumable huge) Mobile Me server. Thus invites are sent from 
the shared server via the only SMTP service that the shared server is 
guaranteed to have access to -- namely Apple's own Mobile Me SMTP server.

With extra work, Apple could associate an originating email address with each 
calendar, but this would have to be one email address per subscriber of each 
shared calendar, since if I subscribe to a calendar I want my invitation to 
come from me, whereas if you subscribe to a calendar you want the invitation to 
come from you. Note that this not even a feature of Exchange Server.

So all the above is the third rationale that I mentioned. Namely that Apple has 
rolled out a fairly amazing service, but it will take a future iteration to add 
a feature that allows invitations to appear to come from a non Mobile Me 
registered email address.

Cheers,
Carlo

Re: MobileMe calendar upgrade - how to amend email address?

[Steven Knowles]

Hi Carlo

You have a deeper understanding than me of the underlying technologies 
involved, and thanks again for taking the time to explain extensively, it's 
appreciated. It's interesting, though pushes the limits of my technical 
capacity.

Without wanting to be argumentative, I still think that regardless of technical 
considerations and limitations, a move like this by Apple has failed to do the 
right thing by that subset of customers who use MobileMe by virtue of its 
failure to inform, basic Change Management 101 stuff. The ramifications are 
quite tangible. Fortunately in my case I generated only one calendar 
invitation, to four invitees, before I figiured what was happening, but even 
then the flow on effects have wasted at least an hour of my time, as well as 
creating confusion and wasted the time of others. Multiply that a few million 
times, that's a potentially far reaching impact. Whether or not the transition 
is justified overall, the implementation has been botched by limiting the 
ability for layman consumers to make an informed decision, or plan for any 
impact it may have. It wouldn't surprise me if Apple finds itself on the 
receiving end of a legal action or two for failure to warn against a 
foreseeable consequence. Maybe the effect was buried in the fine print 
somewhere, but even if it was, this should have been a warning in BIG CAPS.

Anyway, hoping for that future iteration soon! Surely there'll be plenty of 
call for it. Personally I've gotta put calendar invitations on hold, and no 
doubt it means I've gotta stop accepting invitations as well since the 
acknowledgment will no doubt issue from me.com. Lots of manual input :-(

Cheers, Steven

Hi Steven,

I forgot to mention that the wait for the next iteration of Mobile Me may not 
be all that long, but unfortunately I don't think it will hold any good news 
about the invitation snafu. Rumours are rife that a major overhaul is in the 
works. The most persistent rumour is that the service will become free and will 
allow  you to share data files between your home computer and your mobile 
devices, or that there will be some sort of information safe storage access -- 
it is all quite vague.

If the service does become free and changes significantly, we paid members may 
have access to some services only until they are retired at the end of our 
contract, nevertheless I am curious to see what's coming.

Cheers,
Carlo

Hi Carlo,

Like you, I'm not  sure I'm going to like where Apple is heading with MobileMe.
I've been a member from when Dot.Mac was first introduced.

/Begin Quote:
Apple plans major MobileMe revamp for April launch; prior version to be phased 
out in a year!

Apple is set to announce a new, free version of MobileMe next month, according 
to a trusted iLounge source. The source, who works for a major educational 
institution, claims the school’s supplier has said the current version of 
MobileMe is no longer available, and that Apple is suggesting new students sign 
up for the 60-day trial to cover the gap between the final MobileMe shipment 
and the launch of the new version. 

In addition, the source was told that Apple will be supporting the existing 
version of MobileMe for the next year, suggesting that the new version will be 
quite different from the existing service; the extra year of support would 
likely cover those who recently paid for a full year of MobileMe, prior to 
Apple removing any method through which a user could pay for the service.

 Recent reports have suggested that the revamped service will position it as a 
free online, cloud-based “locker” for content such as photos, videos, and music.

Hi Steven,

Perhaps a work around for you until something is resolved in MobileMe.
I just tried this and it works fine, you can use any email address you choose.

1. Create an Event in iCal

2. Control-Click (Right-Click) and select “Mail Event”

It’s easy and it sends a standard calendar event to the recipient.
With a message informing them of the event you have invited them to, and  “To 
add it to your calendar, click the link below.
Which is a standard iCal.ics 

I know its not what you want, but might do in the interim.

Cheers,
Ronni

http://www.google.com/calendar/ical/1c9aofvh39bls3dmmegkcock34%40group.calendar.google.com/public/basic.ics

But I wasn't interested in school terms and this doesn't include them.

However I think my google search was western australian holidays ical 
(without quotes) and the top entry and others include mentions of school terms.

Re: iPhone Calendar/Settings/1st Day of the Week

[Ronda Brown]

The International Standards Organisation (ISO).
Decided that Monday is to be regarded as the first day of the week. Calendars 
in many European countries, in particular, now follow the ISO decision by 
starting the week on Monday. Airline timetables also number the days from 
Monday as 1, Tuesday as 2, Wednesday as 3, etc.

On my iPhone the first day of the week is Monday.  I've  
always had Sunday as the first day.


However in Setting and in the User Guide it does not show  
you how to change Sunday.


Can we do tis?
