Limitations,
caveats, and known problems in this release
- With CorporateTime 5.1.5, SASL (Simple Authentication and Security Layer) is not supported under certain configurations. You will not be able to use it when you are connecting to ASP servers, servers with master nodes using the generic settings or when you are off-line.
- If you have decided to have your In-tray closed on startup, the New Entry icon will not appear when you have new entries. Suggested workaround: Select Refresh All from the View menu. (#687)
- When all of the attendees of a meeting are remote users, control right-clicking on the meeting will bring up an empty box instead of the list of attendees. The list will be properly displayed if there is at least one local attendee,. (#811)
- If you change from one time zone to another and then switch to the off-line mode, your on-line and off-line time zones will not be synchronized. (#970, 971)
- If you make modifications to your agenda preferences while you are on-line, not all of the preferences will be saved when you go off-line. (#1060)
- When you create a SASL connection, sign in on-line and then select to work off-line, you will not be asked to enter a password. When you next you choose to work off-line, you will be asked to enter your password. Since the password was empty the last time you worked off-line, press Enter. (#1154)

- If a user logs out while working off-line and a second user logs in, decides to work off-line and selects Cancel in the Different Local Storage dialog box, CorporateTime will close. Suggested workaround: Do not click Cancel in the Different Local Storage dialog box, but select a location for your off-line Agenda instead. (#1667)
Resolved
limitations since 5.1.3
- When importing an iCalendar file of more than 4 KB, you may receive a module error and be unable to continue the operation. (#40)

Resolved limitations since 5.1.2
- When daylight savings time is not enabled, the time zone may be incorrect if you log in on-line, exit, and then log in off-line. (#17)

- If you have two meetings directly following each other in the same room, adding a small amount of time to the first meeting will give you an error instead of a conflict message. (#975)
- You may have to wait to be able to continue if you list the attendees for a new entry in the New Entries folder of the In-tray and then accept it. (#977)
- If you have two Meetings scheduled for the same time and you create the same reminder for each of the Meetings, the first reminder will not appear. If you set a reminder for an Entry, it may not appear at the correct time. When you have more than one reminder set for a particular day, they will all arrive together. (#1029 and #1046)
- If you create a Daily Note or Day Event by clicking on the toolbar of an older version of CorporateTime for Windows and then migrate to CorporateTime for Macintosh 5.1, the Daily Notes and Day Events will appear on the wrong days when you view them from a Windows machine. Those created by double-clicking in the Notes and Events pane will be shown on the proper days. (#1041)

A dialog will appear for each event to be deleted. (#1081)

- When a non-CorporateTime user receives an iCal or vCal attachment from a CorporateTime user, his e-mail viewer defaults will dictate whether he sees the attachment inline or as an attachment. (#896)
- When importing a file, clicking on Cancel will not always stop the process. (#11831)
- When performing an Agenda Search, you may receive a message stating that no match has been found. It is possible that the server has not even been reached in t hat time period and so you are advised to try again. Your system administrator can change the time interval setting by adding the following parameter to the ENG section of the server unison.ini:
eventsearch_maxlookthroughlimit = 5000
