Can't share calendars after iCloud transition

I have the same issue. I was able to resend invitations to my shared calendar to my wife and she was able to attach them into her calendar.

The calendar she shared with me now when you click on the share icon ... it shows her as the owner but it does not give an uption to add somebody else. If this is not a share-able calendar anymore how do we change it?

She has other calendars that seem to be shareable.

Yes, I have the same problem. I have been able to see my wife calendar that she was able to reset up to let me share.

However, I cannot share my calendar. It has me as the owner but doesn't have an option to allow me to add my wife.

Icloud has created this other calendar that is empty and it won't let me delete. I hope I don't have to copy all my data over to this calendar!

Have you got any further with this?

my problem is similar but not the same. i was sharing a calendar from mobile me and when i switched to icloud, i can no longer share the calendar and in fact it says im the one the calendar is shared with and that i dont own it.

Yes- this seems to be the same problem as I have and it seems that others have. I have spoken to Apple and they don't seem to be able to work it out at the moment either! Still working on it though.

I have the same problem as gss2 and koups51, i.e I'm sharing the calendar with myself (the folder owner) and there is no option to share with anyone else. Not having a mac and therefore iCal, I am stuck with outlook - I've tried creating new calendars on icloud.com (which have full sharing permissions when created) and then copying the data into them in outlook, but whichever way I try, I can't get the data in there - copying/pasting events, importing from a pst, dragging folders to the icloud group, etc etc.

Does anyone think there will be a solution forthcoming? I am beginning to wish I hadn't made the transition!

I have exactly the same problem as gss2, koups51 and helen555.

Very frustrating!

Just wondering if you lot were on a family pack. My husband who was the main account holder had no problems sharing his main calendar.

I was a family member and I can't share my main calendar it just says im sharing it with myself who is the owner. (no other options to share); where as I can share my other calendars that i created??

work around if you have a macbook

added wifes icloud using system preferences -> mail contacts and calendars-> add account, ticked calendar option

then went into ical, where wifes calendar was then seen.

on menu bar selected calendar, sharing options, was then able to share, and send email

then removed account in ical

Hope that helps someone.

Try this - I had the same problem as you and this worked for me:

From your wife's account, share one of the calendars to your email @mac.com. I originally was trying to share to @me.com and it was showing the same error you posted. I can now access all prior shared calendars.

This is exactly what happened to my wife's calendar. It created a second calendar on her iPhone as if she didn't have one. It looks like the upgrade didn't recognize that she is the owner of he calendar yet she can add, edit delete events on iCloud, and iPhone. She is syncing to outlook but so am I and my update went fine.

I was stymied by this forever. A clue in the thread above pointed me in the right direction. I was sending the invite from my wife's iCal to my iTunes email. It wouldn't work

I sent the invite to my iCloud/MobileMe email (ID) and that one worked.

I hope this helps more of you!!

Hi Kevin

I have the identical problem you describe and have no idea how to resolve it. Have you made any progress?

This a fix using the iCloud web interface.

I had the same problem with transitioning from a MobileMe family account to individual iCloud accounts, my master account calendar was still able to share, but the option had disappeared in the other accounts. When I select the sharing icon next to the calendar name on the iCloud web interface, all the sharing options are greyed out.

FIX:

1. Go to www.icloud.com and log into an iCloud account whose calendar you want to share.

2. Create a new calendar using the edit function. You may have to give it a temporary name if it has the same name as the existing calander.

3. Copy any appointments you want to keep from the old calendar to the new one. Drag and drop will work, just drag the event from the calendar onto the new calendar name in the sidebar.

4. Delete the old calendar. Note that this calander can not be deleted until you have created the new one as per above.

5. Select the sharing icon next to the new calendar name. It should work now.

Any events not copied over from the old calendar will be lost.

Michael,

I am also experiencing this same issue.

This doesn't work for me. The person sharing any calendar (whether an existing calendar, or a new calendar) will fail to be joined to my calendar. 😟
