Activities

When creating Activity Entry bookmarks, unsafe URI patterns will not be saved

Data that can represent a XSS attack, if identified, is stripped from bookmark field.
e.g. javascript:// is considered dangerous and can allow XSS hacking.
javascript://abc will be converted to about:blank when saving a bookmark. Other dangerous patterns will be converted in similar pattern.

While attempting to save an entry with a tag over 64 characters in Activities, you receive an error message "We have encountered a problem" also known as browser error 500

Workaround
Keep Activity entry tags at 64 characters or less

Carriage returns in activity goals and notification messages are not rendered in email (47417)

When a user is notified about an Activity or entry, carriage returns in activity goal and notification message are not rendered.

Workaround
None.

Downloading a file from Activities that contains more than 50 bytes of Unicode characters in the file name loses some characters (50078)

This issue applies only to Internet Explorer 6 and 7. If a file contains more than 50 bytes of Unicode characters, or certain characters such as spaces (approximately 15-25 non-latin characters), Internet Explorer will only use the last 50 bytes of the file name. This results in a file name with missing characters from the beginning, and in some cases garbled characters in the beginning such as "%3E".

Workaround
When using Internet Explorer 6 or 7, shorten the file name to be smaller than the limit imposed by the browser.

Exporting an activity adds "" to beginning of CSV file (54419)

Exporting an activity to a CSV file adds the Byte Order Marker to the beginning of the file to allow some versions of Excel to open the file properly.

Workaround
Delete the Byte Order Marker from the cell or use the Text Importation wizard in Excel.

In long activity goals, blank lines and line feeds are not shown correctly (52556)

In Internet Explorer, if you click "...more" in an activity goal of over 4000 characters, the line breaks are not rendered, so you lose all the white space in the goal.

Workaround
None.

Some file names in Microsoft Word (.doc) files do not render correctly in activities when you use Internet Explorer 6 and 7 (50005)

Attach a Microsoft Word (.doc) file with a double byte character set (DBCS) name to an activity entry. Save the activity and then download the file. The file name that displays does not render correctly and is unreadable in activities.

This only occurs in Internet Explorer 6 and 7 (Internet Explorer 6 seems to have a slightly larger buffer). It does not occur in Internet Explorer 8 or higher.

Workaround
None.

Long description in activity entries and goals cannot be exported to CSV file (SPR #SYEE8E9VQ9)

If an activity entry or goal has more than 2K of data, only the first 2K of text can be exported to the CSV file using the Export Activity feature.

Workaround
None.

Notification emails for Activity updates no longer include salutations (25939)

Notification emails for Activity updates no longer include the salutation at the top of the email.

Workaround
None.

Very long field titles in Activities crash the browser (31710)

Titles on activities and activity entries are limited to 2K of data. This is equivalent to 2048 ASCII characters. The number of characters in other languages will depend on the UTF-8 encoding of the Unicode characters. See the following technote for more information:
http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=0&context=SSCYJJE&q1=title&uid=swg21396874&loc=en_US&cs=utf-8&lang=

Workaround
Do not create activities or activity entries with more than 2K of text.

Use full search option is not available when member is not found in type-ahead (SPR#SYEE8EERP6)

The Activities tool tip for adding new members suggests that if the name you want is not displayed, click Use full search to search for it.

This is not correct. The option is not available.

Workaround
Check the name or email address of the user and try again.

Error message displays in a federated environment when you view an RSS feed for LotusLive Connections applications (76028)

LotusLive does not support viewing LotusLive Connections RSS feeds in federated environments - deployments where you can log in once to visit several websites. If you subscribe to an RSS feed, you might be challenged by password authentication or an error message when you try to view RSS feeds from LotusLive Connections applications such as Activities, Communities, and Files.

Workaround
None.

Administration

The "Display Challenge questions to users to confirm identity" option does not work (57733)

Setting the Password Reset Method to "Display Challenge questions to users to confirm identity" does not change the password reset method for users. The setting is accepted however the default password reset method using email to confirm identify is still used.

Workaround
None

Admin is not able to Edit a User(62208)

If the Admin has not yet setup a mail domain (Notes or iNotes) it is not possible to edit and save existing users.

Workaround
Admin needs to configure the mail domain then users can be edited and saved correctly.

Browser exception error displays when the company administrator attempts to add a new user but leaves the email field empty (62028)

This issue occurs when a new user does not enter any value for the email field under account identity and passes by it either by using the tab key or mouse. As a result, there an error occurs on the Add User page along with a stack trace.

Workaround
Be sure to enter a valid email address in the email field before moving to the next filed.

Default language for integration server change files when no language is specified (65481)

The integration server documentation may indicate that when no language is specified in a provisioning change file, the default language used is English. In fact, the default language used is the company contact language. An administrator specifies the company contact language on their My Account Settings page using the Localization and Language options.

Using line feeds and carriage return characters in integration server change files (62689)

Each line of a user provisioning change file must end with an appropriate carriage return or line feed character. On Windows platforms use \r\n (0x0D 0x0A) and on UNIX or Linux platforms use \n (0xA). While the LotusLive integration server can process files with either line ending format, you should use the TEXT transfer format to ensure that proper line endings are sent to and received from the intermediary FTP server.

Case-specific integration server constraint for changetype in Directory Integration change files (70406)

For Directory Integration (DI) change files, the integration server does not process changetype operations where the changetype name contains a capital letter. For example, changetype "Add" entries are ignored but changetype "add" entries are processed.
Workaround: Until this issue is resolved, use all lower case characters for changetype specifications in directory integration change files.

Integration server documentation missing error codes 1059-1068 (74111)

The "Error code values for processed change files" topic is missing the following error codes:

1059 -- INOTES_FAILED_GET_DOMAINS -- The iNotes endpoint failed to obtain the customer domains.
1060 -- INOTES_NOT_ENABLED -- The user provisioning request failed because iNotes is not enabled in this environment.
1061 -- CANNOT_RESEND_TO_PENDING_ENTITLE -- The invitation cannot be resent because the subscriber has a seat in the ENTITLE_PENDING state.
1062 -- INVALID_PARAMETER -- An invalid parameter was encountered.
1063 -- SUBSCRIPTION_NOT_IN_ACTIVE_STATE -- A specified subscription could not be processed because it was not active.
1064 -- INVALID_SEAT -- An invalid seat was specified.
1065 -- SEAT_REVOKE_FAILED -- A RevokeSeat operation failed.
1066 -- CHANGE_SEAT_FAILED -- A ChangeSeat operation failed.
1067 -- SUBSCRIBER_FETCH_FAILED -- A BSS communication error occurred during a subscriber fetch operation.
1068 -- CUSTOMER_FETCH_FAILED -- A BSS communication error occurred during a customer fetch operation.

Improvements needed to Timezone information in integration server documentation (76330)

Integration server enablement topic is missing information (75950)

Assignseat operation with just the NotesDN value fails (75189)

When using an AssignSeat operation in a user provisioning change file, you must specify a givenName, familyName, and NotesDN value for that user or else the operation will fail. The givenName and familyName cannot be automatically derived from the NotesDN value.

The following enterprise integration change file time zones were added or updated after the help was published (67738):

Pacific/Chuuk (GMT+10:00) Chuuk Time
America/Curacao (GMT-04:00) Atlantic Standard Time (Curacao)
Pacific/Pohnpei (GMT+11:00) Pohnpei Time
Europe/Moscow (GMT+04:00) Moscow Standard Time

Contacts

The 'About Me' field of the My Profile page is limited to 1,000 single byte characters.(75939)

Workaround:
If you are entering multi-byte characters, reduce the number of characters you enter to ensure it will be saved within the restriction of 1,000 bytes.

Panel help for importing contacts from Lotus Notes needs to be more specific (47846)

The following information is missing on the panel help for importing Lotus Notes contacts to LotusLive:
In Lotus Notes, click File->Export. Select where the file will be saved and type in a name for the file. If you are exporting contacts from Lotus Notes 8.5, select the option to export Only Basic Fields. In the Save As type field, select Comma Separated Value.

Zooming out in FireFox blurs business cards (35121)

In Firefox, if the zoom level is set to zoom out, viewing the business card of a LotusLive user might be blurred.
Workaround
Reset the zoom level of FireFox.

Cannot search for user profiles with special characters (52404)

If a special character, such as a parenthesis '(', is part of a user's name, a search that includes the special character might not return a result.

Workaround
Search for the part of the user name that does not include the special character

Search function in Contacts is not accent insensitive (48498)

Search is accent-sensitive. Your search term must include accented characters if the name that you are looking for has accented characters.

Workaround
If the contact name contains an accent, the search term must include the accent.

Communities

Shared files reappear on reading the removed widget of the community (51291)

If you remove the Files widget from a community, the files and folders that appeared there will continue to be shared with that community. Removing the widget does not remove the shares. Therefore, if the widget is re-added to the community, then the same set of files and folders will reappear.

Workaround
None. This is working as designed.

Searching for a term within the title for many communities does not return all communities (54491)

Not all communities with the search term are returned. Only the communities that have the search term as a tag are returned. Search is designed to find community names based on an exact match or a wildcard query. The Development team does not have any plans to provide ngram search support yet

Workaround
Use wildcard characters in the search term for more complete result sets.

Community's upload image feature doesn't work using the keyboard instead of the button. (54647)

Start a community and click the "Upload a Community Image" link to get a "Browse..." dialog, then use the tab key to move the focus on it, press the Enter key to invoke it. It worked as the save function not as an upload function. The Community is saved without the uploading image. This is a third party software bug. The browser provides the file browse control support.

Workaround
The space bar can be used to invoke browsing.

Community name does not appear in the type-ahead list when you perform a search (48936)

If a community name begins with quotation marks or a back slash, the community name will not appear in the type-ahead list when performing a search.

Workaround
None

Search queries do not work correctly when using brackets [ ] (36624)

Search queries might not work correctly when you use the brackets reserved characters in a search: [ ]

For example, a search query that contains "My stuff [really important]" might not provide the expected results.

Workaround
If you use a reserved character in a search query and do not get expected results, try to use a different search query by removing the reserved characters.

The Description field in a community form has a limit length (53948)

When creating or editing a community, there is a 2048 byte limit associated with the Description field in the community form. This is not documented in help.

Workaround
Do not create a community description with more than 2048 bytes of data.

ALT text for images in browsers (58775) Online help uses the ALT property on images to display alternate text if the image does not exist, cannot be displayed, or cannot be downloaded to the browser. The ALT property is also read by tools such as screen readers to aid accessibility. Microsoft Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox browsers treat the ALT property different ways. Internet Explorer treats the ALT text as hover help. Firefox does not treat the ALT text as hover help; Firefox only uses the text if the image is broken or if it is read by a screen reader Workaround None. This is working as designed.

Add and Invite Members text box moves across screen when greater than 65 characters are entered; only on Internet Explorer 6 and Internet Explorer 8 (57323)

When you are in the Community's Members page and click Add Members, or Invite Members, and then you enter a user name or group name over 65 characters in the name box the text box and whole line begins to move left across the page as you enter more characters. This is just a display issue, and the user/group are added correctly. This only occurs with Internet Explorer 6 and Internet Explorer 8 browsers. The problem does not occur with a Firefox browser.

Workaround
None

Community Overview tags type-ahead doesn't work correctly (YZZG8FPEJU)

When you open a Community to the Overview page and within the Tags widget, click "Find a tag", as you begin to enter the name of a tag, the type-ahead suggestions are the tags from the "My Communities" cloud and not the tags on the "Overview" cloud.

Workaround
Select a tag from the Tag cloud which is displayed on the Community's Overview page.

Missing information on sending surveys to communities (52469)

The online Help for the Communities application is missing information on how to send a survey to a community.

Workaround
None

Forms

Form not visible in Files after creation (29532, 29529)

If either of the following are true, the form will not store correctly and will not be visible in Files after saving:
- If the Description field contains more than 2047 characters of text.
- If the Tags field contains more than 254 characters of text.

Workaround
Keep the length of the Description field less than 2048 characters of text and keep the length of the Tags field less than 255 characters of text.

Files

Demoting editors on a file has moved (73055)

To demote a user from editor on a file to reader, navigate to the Sharing tab on the file summary page. Click the link for "See who has shared...". Now select the X next to the name of the user. The dialog that opens will have a button that allows you to demote the user to reader.

The dialog for removing organization public access has a very confusing typo (71321)

When removing organization public access from a file a dialog opens with information about what it means to remove public access. Removing public access from a file will be automatically remove the file from any public folders or communities. The warning message that is displayed reads "If access is removed, the file is removed from folders and communities that are not organization public...", which is the opposite of what is true. The message should read "If access is removed, the file is removed from folders and communities that are organization public..."

The Pinned Folder option does not appear when selecting a folder from Activities (72658)

When selecting a folder from Files within an Activity the picker dialog does not include a link to show Pinned Folders. Folders can be located through the other navigation options.

Some files report an error when downloaded in Internet Explorer (72659)

When downloading files in Internet Explorer, a user may encounter an error that indicates that Internet Explorer could not download the file. In rare circumstances a user can receive two sets of browser cookies that conflict. To work around this issue, instruct Internet Explorer to remove all cookies by following the instructions here http://support.microsoft.com/kb/278835

When a whole folder is downloaded, the name of the ZIP file that is created is "files.zip" (72188)

When downloading the contents of a folder as a ZIP file, the name of the ZIP file is files.zip. In previous versions of LotusLive the name of the ZIP file was based on the folder name.

Files API returns 0 instead of -1 when there are no anonymous downloads or comments

Previously, the Files CMIS API would return -1 when the count of anonymous downloads or comments was not known in that particular call. In the most recent version the count is always known, so the value will always be 0 or higher.

Folders shared with LDAP groups do not immediately appear in the "Folders Shared with Me" view (55793)

After sharing folders with LDAP groups, the group members can not immediately see the folders in "Folders Shared with Me" view.

Workaround
Wait 10 minutes after you share and then click on the "Folders Shared with Me" view again. The folders should appear.

Unable to access check boxes in the "Share Files with a Community" dialog box (38235)

If you set the text or font size of a browser to a setting that is larger than the default, you may be unable to access all of the check boxes in the Share Files with a Community dialog box, especially if a large number of files have been shared with the community.

This issue would occur, for example, in Microsoft Internet Explorer if you go to View > Text Size and pick any size larger than Medium. Also, in Mozilla FireFox, if you go to View > Zoom and zoom in beyond the default. With these scenarios, and 13 or more files shared with the community, it is possible that you will not be able to see or select some of the files in order to stop sharing them.

This problem may be exacerbated if your screen resolution is low. For example, the issue will be more apparent if the screen resolution is lower than 1280 x 1024 as opposed to a higher-resolution display.

Workaround
In Internet Explorer, choose View > Text Size > Medium or in FireFox choose View > Zoom > Reset. Depending on the screen resolution, you may also need to be sure that the browser window is maximized, especially if the resolution is as low as 1024 x 768. If you set the font size in a way other than by using the View menu in the browser, then it also may be necessary for you to reset the font size to the defaults of the operating system.

The "Share Files with a Community" dialog box should display properly as long as the text size, zoom, and font are set to the defaults.

Unable to share file with a community (49325)

You want to share a file with a community but when you type the name of the community, it never appears as a selectable option.
This issue is cause when the community name begins with special characters, such as double quotes.

Workaround
None

"Upload to folders" dialog box only allows the user to upload one file at a time (42356)

When attempting to upload multiple files, you are given the option to upload only a single file at a time. This occurs when one of the following circumstances is true:
- Adobe Flash is not installed.
- The browser you are using does not have a Flash plug-in.
- The Flash plug-in is installed but is not working.
- An unsupported version of Flash is installed.

Workaround
Check the version of Flash you have installed on your browser. For more information, see: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/155/tn_15507.html.

The oldest version of Flash that is supported by LotusLive in order to provide multiple file upload capabilities is version 9.0.28. If you have version 9.0.28 or newer installed, and you are unable to upload multiple files, report the bug to your IBM customer support representative.

If you have version 9.0.28 or older installed, or if Flash is not installed correctly according to the following website http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/155/tn_15507.html, install the latest version of Flash. For more information about installing the latest version of Flash, see http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/.

If the contact name or email exceeds 75 characters, a scroll bar will appear in the search box and the contacts list to accommodate the width.

Workaround
None

Tag is truncated to 50 characters (17 DBCS) without warning (42337)

When creating a tag with more than 17 DBCS characters, the information is truncated and not saved. No error message is received.

All tags over 50 characters (17 DBCS characters) will be truncated at 50 characters prior to being saved.

Workaround
Limit your tags to 50 characters (17 DBCS characters).

Top banner does not display properly (43148)

When using the Safari v3.2.x browser on Mac operating systems v10.5.x, the top banner does not display properly on the personal settings page, some administration panel pages, and from the iNotes mail service.

Workaround
Upgrade to a later version of Safari, if possible, or use a different browser that is supported by LotusLive and by your operating system.

User receives error after administrator changes their email address (41951)

If you try to access Communities or Activities immediately after an administrator changed your email address, you will receive an error. The user repository needs time to process the change.

Workaround
None. The issue resolves itself after about a minute.

User entitlements additions or removals are not immediately reflected in the LotusLive user interface (56913)

The LotusLive user interface displays the services to which a user is entitled. If your company administrator adds or removes LotusLive services to your account while you are logged in, the user interface will not reflect those changes for a few minutes. The LotusLive user interface improves end user performance by limiting how often end user entitlements are checked. While the entitlement is immediately provided or revoked based on company administrator action, the current set of entitlements will continue to be displayed in the user interface until the next time LotusLive does an efficient entitlement check. If you navigate directly to a newly entitled service directly through a URL, you will be successful. If you try to navigate to a removed entitlement, you will be blocked because access checks are done immediately.

Workaround
Wait a few minutes and the user interface will reflect the changes.

Login and logout event missing from journaling when the user is deleted (66257)

If a user logged in to the system using the LotusLive login page then that user account is immediately deleted from the system, any login and logout events of the user that may have happened within the 3 minutes before account deletion will be missing from journaling.

Workaround:
None

iNotes

Mail

LotusLive iNotes cannot use a Notes address to send an email message

When using LotusLive iNotes to send or receive email messages, traditional email addresses (for example, name@us.ibm.com) are used. Notes addresses (for example, Name/New York/IBM) are not used.

When you use Lotus Notes 8.x to export contacts in the .csv format, however the email address is stored (either Notes or email address) is how the email address is exported. When you use the .csv file to import these contacts into LotusLive iNotes, if the email address was stored in the .csv file, it is stored in the Email address field. However, if the Notes address was stored in the .csv file, it is stored in the Notes field. When sending emails in LotusLive iNotes,the email address specified in the Email address field is used. LotusLive iNotes cannot use a Notes address to send an email.

Workaround
Lotus Notes 8.5.x and later users should export contacts in the vCard (.vcf) format. No workaround is available for users of earlier versions of Lotus Notes.

Occasionally search results may not be immediately available

Occasionally, search results may not be immediately available in iNotes. We are reindexing your search index and your results will be available in a few minutes. Please try your search again in a few minutes.

Workaround
None

Refresh your search results page after deleting a spam message

When you search your email and delete a spam message from the search results, refresh the search results page to update the number of messages listed. You might have to refresh the page more than once to see the updated results.

The date selection feature for Out-of-Office notification operates independently from your Weeks start with calendar preference setting

If you update your Weeks start with calendar preference setting to a value other than the default value, the changes are not reflected in the Out-of-Office mini calendar view. Use caution when selecting dates for Out-of-Office notification.

Cannot actually send an attachment of the stated maximum size

The maximum size for an email message that you send, including all attachments, is 30 MB. There is approximately 1.5 MB used for fields in the email other than the email text and attachments. Therefore, the maximum size of the email message text and all attachments is 28.5 MB.

Selecting attributes for new email message text when using the Rich Text Editor

When using the Rich Text Editor to compose a new email message, you might observe one or more of the following: the formatting for an inserted link cannot be edited, if you paste formatted text from another application, errors might occur, if you select text formatting, such as font size, bold, or italics, text you enter does not reflect the selected formatting, if you select white as the default background color, black is displayed in the sample color box.

Workaround
Enter all email message text and then select the desired attributes, for example, font size, color and bold. To format your message text, for example, with bullets or numbering, select the text you want to format and then select the desired formatting options. If you want to copy and paste text from Microsoft Word or formatted text from another application, select the desired attributes after pasting the text.

Emails might be truncated for some users

If you are using other software, such as Microsoft Word, to generate email content that you want to copy to a LotusLive iNotes email, make sure you do not specify a negative margin value for your email text. Specifying a negative margin value can result in the message text being truncated when you send the email message. In this case, the recipient of your email might not be able to view the entire email.

This can occur in the following environments:
- Windows XP
- Windows 7
- Internet Explorer 7
- Internet Explorer 8
- Firefox 3.x

Workaround
If you experience this issue, you can set up IMAP access to read the email using another email client, such as Outlook.

Security message displayed in Internet Explorer Version 9 when cutting and pasting images in message text

When pasting an image to the Rich Text Editor (RTE) in the Mail compose page, IE9 displays a security content message "Only secured content is displayed." with a "Show all content" button. If you do not select the "Show all content" button and just close the message box, the pull-down menus for 'Background Color', 'Text Color', 'Font Name' and 'Font Size' in the RTE toolbar do not work after the image is pasted.

Find file button not displaying correctly in Internet Explorer Version 9

When using Internet Explorer Version 9 and creating an email message, the button used to attach a file is not displaying correctly. File uploads will be limited to one file.

Mail data is not loaded when opening a draft in Internet Explorer Version 9

When using Internet Explorer Version 9 and creating an email message, if you save it as a draft, select Close to return to the Drafts folder, and then reopen the draft, none of the contents are saved. You must return to the Drafts folder, reopen the draft, and edit the draft again to save your changes.

Bullets and numbers not displaying correctly in lists when using Internet Explorer Version 9

When using Internet Explorer Version 9 and creating an email message, if you add a bulleted list or numbered list in the Rich Text Editor (RTE), the bullets and numbers do not display correctly.

When printing from Internet Explorer 6, not all content is included in the print out

When content is cropped, it is not printed. This problem is related to the Internet Explorer 6 browser and cannot be fixed by the email offering.

Workaround
Print from another web browser.

Table cells not merged properly when using Internet Explorer 6 or Internet Explorer 7

Table cells are not merged properly when you insert a table with several cells and then select Merge down.

Workaround
None

Attaching files to a message with a supported Microsoft Internet Explorer browser, but no Adobe Flash Player plugin

If the Adobe Flash Player plugin for the supported Microsoft Internet Explorer browser is not installed, when you create a message, you can attach files to the message, but you can only attach one file at a time. When the Adobe Flash Player plugin is installed, you can simultaneously attach multiple files to a message.

Using Opera browsers

For the supported Opera browsers, when you create or reply to LotusLive iNotes email messages, the rich text editor capabilities that you find when using other browsers are not available. A text area is available for use.

Problem sending email messages with Opera 10.51

If you use Opera 10.51 to send email messages, when you click Send, one of two problems might occur:

1. The message is not sent and the Compose page continues to be displayed.
2. An error message is displayed. The message indicates that a problem has occurred and you need to save your work before continuing.

Workaround
Use a different version of the Opera browser. This problem has not been recreated with any of the other supported Opera browsers.

Subject or contents of email not displaying correctly

The LotusLive iNotes email messaging service is compliant with the RFC MIME message standard. If you receive an email that does not conform to this standard, for example, missing information in the email body, you might see corrupted email contents when displaying the email.

Searching across folders with names starting with "-" or other special characters might return unexpected results

If you create a folder name with special characters, put mail into the new folder, rename the new folder, and then search email in that folder, the old name with the special characters as well as the new folder name are displayed when providing search results. Special characters that will cause problems include:
+ - & | ! ( ) { } [ ] ^ " ~ * ? : \ && ||

Calendar

Date on calendar highlighted incorrectly when creating an event

While creating a new calendar event, if the operating system time zone is different from the time zone of the user who logs into LotusLive iNotes, the date highlighted on the calendar might be different from the date you selected for the event start date.

Workaround
None. Be aware of the date that is selected when creating an event.

Unsupported message from Notes meeting invitation

Repeating meeting response information from a repeating Notes calendar does not display

You send a repeating meeting invitation to a Notes user. The Notes user accepts it and sends you a response. When you open the response message, the meetings description information does not display.

Workaround
None

Scheduling and responding to repeating meeting invitations with Notes users

When you schedule a repeating meeting and include Notes users on your invitee list, responses from Notes users are reflected in your calendar, but the email notification you receive might not contain response details for all the meeting instances. When scheduling a repeating meeting, request a response from all invitees for all instances of the meeting. This ensures that you are up-to-date on attendance status for each instance of your meeting. If you receive an updated meeting invitation from a Notes user, the email notification you receive might not contain response details for all meeting instances, but you can respond to the updated invitation, even if you declined the original invitation.

In the following scenario the date displayed in the calendar event might be incorrect

The wrong date is displayed in calendar entries when all of the following conditions are met:

• LotusLive iNotes is used to send a calendar entry to a Lotus Notes user.
• The person who creates the calendar entry is using a computer where the operating system is referencing a different locale and date-time format than the person who receives the calendar entry.

Workaround
On the system where Lotus Notes is installed, change the operating system date-time format and locale to match the locale and date-time format on the LotusLive iNotes system. You can also work around the problem by comparing the date and time format on the invitation. If the start date occurs after the end date, the end date has been incorrectly identified. To resolve the problem, specify the correct end date.

Repeating meetings are canceled when one instance is canceled

You are sent a repeating meeting invitation from a Notes user. After you accept the invitation, the Notes user cancels one of the instances. The result is that all instances of the repeating meeting are canceled.

Workaround
None

Meeting dates might not be displayed in an updated meeting notice

If you schedule a repeating meeting and then remove an invitee from all instances of the repeating meeting, that invitee receives an updated meeting notice. In some cases, the meeting dates are not displayed. This can also occur if you cancel all instances of the repeating meeting.

Time zone differences between operating system and calendar functions

If the operating system time zone is different from the time zone of the user who logs on to LotusLive iNotes, when the LotusLive iNotes user goes to the calendar to create a new event, the date highlighted on the calendar might be different from the date selected when you select a start date for the event.

Personal calendar naming convention

Your personal calendar is labeled either 'Personal Calendar' or with your user name, depending on when your account was set up. If your first name and last name cannot be retrieved, then the LOCAL PART of your email address is used instead of 'Personal Calendar'. You can edit the name and description of your personal calendar. If you delete the title of your personal calendar, the title reverts to 'No title'.

Unable to send/respond to an invite to/from an iOS device

If you send an invitation and the invitation is viewed on an iOS device, no response can be sent from the iOS device.
If you create an event in a secondary or corporate calendar on an iOS device, the 'invitee' field will be ignored on the iOS device.

Users authorized as Authors cannot edit events on shared calendars using iOS4.x

On iOS4.x, if you view an invitation from another user in a calendar owned by a third user, you cannot respond or edit the event.
On iOS4.x, if you create an event in another user's calendar, you cannot edit the event.

Ghost events are not shown as ghost events if you are not the owner of the calendar

If you are following a calendar owned by another user, invitations sent to the owner of the calendar do not show up as ghost events for you.

Contacts

The same item is recorded twice in corporate directory

If you have authorization to import corporate contacts, before you import corporate contacts, verify that your account administrator used the LotusLive iNotes import process to import existing corporate contacts. If your administrator used another import method, you might see duplicate entries when importing corporate contacts.

Displaying more than 3000 members returns a 504 timeout error

An administrative group cannot have more than 2000 members. When an administrator adds more than 2000 members, the system returns an error message to indicate that the limit has been exceeded.

Workaround

Using Skype with LotusLive iNotes

If you have a Skype plug-in running while you are logged into LotusLive iNotes, the email address that displays when you reply to or create email messages might not be correct. Specifically, text such as 'begin_of_the_skype_highlighting' and 'end_of_the_skype_highlighting' might be displayed in the To:, cc:, or bcc: fields.

Workaround
Delete the extra characters in the To:, cc:, or bcc: fields that are not part of the email address.

One-time password behavior when accessing LotusLive iNotes non-web protocol

Unyte Events





Error on Step 5 of 8 (49070)


The following issue only applies to Unyte Events and not to Lotuslive Events.
Currently Unyte Events supports events duration of up to 23 hours. For example, a start time of 9am and an end time of 8am indicates that the event will end at 8am the following day.
However if the you create an Event and select the same end time as the start time (i.e. 9am start time and 9am end time), when you proceed to Step 5 of 8 (Registration preview) the application displays the following error: "A problem has occurred while attempting to process your request.".

Workaround
Create a new Event



Error on Step 5 of 8 (55134)


The following issue only applies to Unyte Events and not to Lotuslive Events.

This happened because the validation failed the first time when the initial date and time was in the past even though you later selected a valid date.

Workaround

Create a new Event
