iCloud calendar invitations not working (sending or receiving)

Sounded promising, but did not resolve the problem for me.. Invitations sent from my iCloud via the web interface or either if my iSlabs go to a black hole when sending to my wife's iCloud or gmail.

Did this solve the problem on your desktop computer as well? That is where I use iCal the most to create event. Please advise. Thanks

So I tryed the thing with deleting iCloud account from device, rebooting, reinstalling it, also same thing on my mac, solves nothing for me. Still the same issue. Invitations from iCloud to iCloud seems to go directly to dev/null

Today i called Appel Care for this. After escalation to the manager and some tests he maybee identifyed the error but can't solve it own. In MobileMe times i had a appleID (someone@googlemail.com) and with this i created my mobileMe account (someone@me.com) as i now migrated to icloud this mobileMe adress was upgraded to a fully appleID.... the problem now is, that there are two appleIDs pointing to the same main email adress. This normaly shouldnt be possible, but as part of the migration it seems to be a bug. The Apple Manager told me that when I remove the someone@me.com from one of the accounts, it should work. I tryed it but its not possible.... soo he sets my both accounts to bugfixing mode, and escalated it to the icloud engineers. I will keep you updated when something new happens.

Apple has really made a mess of their mobile services! Google can do online services flawlessly, but Apple struggles. The migration of MobileMe to iCloud has been a disaster! Furthermore the cancellation of galleries and iDisk makes the iCloud weaker. If Apple can't get these online service resolved, Google and Android is going to take advantage of this weakness and Android will thrive.

People used to ask why I use Apple (paying more) and I would reply "it just works.". Which used to be the case. I could plug and play. Now I'm investing so much time trying to get iCloud to work. Disappointing Apple.

@RafRitz - did Apple ever get back to you? I have been having this issue since just before Christmas!

I have just got mine working.

One of my old Apple IDs had the new iCloud email address as the alternate email address on the account. Once that was removed invites started working perfectly.

I have the same issue except here is what is really strange. We have four family memebers with a iCloud account. My wife and I originally had a mobileme account and converted it over, while my two daughters created a me.com account under iCloud directly.

All have iPhone 4's. When I create an invite it sends to my wife, perfectly everytime, but my daughters never see the invite on their phones or under their cloud.com accounts.

It would appear the only invites working between idevices are those who have had a me.com account before it was switched over to icloud, but if my daughters create the invite from their phones, it is delivered to all accounts. What's up!?!?!

@stuartfromglasogw this means my apple manager was right. was it just a alternate adress or the primery one. I tryed to change my primary but the service at appleid.apple.com didnt let me:)

If you have any old Apple IDs check them out at http://appleid.apple.com and make sure that the iCloud address is not being used as the alternate address on any of them.

I have found the solution to the problem it seems.

For the problems with iCloud calendar invites not going through to calendar on iPhone, iPad, iTouch and so on or going to email instead.

Solution was found while I tried to sort out a problem with my iMessager, it kept saying could not validate as it was already in use. I also had the same issue with FaceTime on my iPhone after logging out, I couldn't log back on.

- Head over to appleid.apple.com

- Login

- Remove any old email email addresses that have been assiociated with the account (if there has been any) - this should sort it the iMessage and FaceTime issue.

- Change your password, making sure that it conforms to the new constrates set by apple (two letters, one upper case & one lowercase, one number and so on.

- Click "Save Changes"

- update all your login settings with the new password and it should work.

I have fixed my me.com and my fiancé me.com account with these steps. Hope it works for you all as well

Looked promising, but didn't help at all. In my wife's case, there wasn't even anything that needed changing.

I fixed my calendar issue by deleting the 'alternate' email from my iCloud account.

So what email(s) do you have in your account?

I have my (old/original) gmail address which is my primary, then my new .ME account as an alternate - i cant/dont want to delete my .ME account..

so how is your setup now?
