How do I send an event invite on MySpace?How do i send an event invite on MySpace, with a normal MySpace account? There are really a couple of parts to your question, though you might not realize it. First off, you might want to create an event, a party, concert, marathon, or snowboard competition, then you would want to invite people to attend your event. You can also send event invitations without having the event in MySpace, but I am speaking theoretically at this point because I, believe it or not, have too many friends to test out this feature. :-) Seriously. Let's create an event, however, to get started. Log in to MySpace, then click on "Events" from the top navigational bar: ![]() Once you're there, you'll see four options on the left side menu: ![]() I'll click on "Event Invites", which takes me to yet another area in MySpace: ![]() Click on "Compose" and you should be able to send an event invite to one or more of your friends. I can't, however: ![]() Seems weird to be penalized for being relatively popular (I have about 2600 MySpace friends) but I imagine it's an antispam block that they've put in place so that MySpace isn't even more annoying than it currently is in that regard. If you want to send out event invites to individuals, that's how you do it. I think. :-) To create an event, back up to the Event area (click on "Events" on the top menu bar, if you want) and then click on "Create New Event". Now you get to a complicated form that lets you specify quite a few parameters related to your upcoming event: ![]() The most important item here is in the middle left: Public or Private. If you don't want thousands of random people from the many-million MySpace users descending on your tea party, I would strongly encourage you to mark your event private! :-) Once you've filled in all the fields and entered the correct verification code, you can painfully slog through your friends list (40 at a time!!) to figure out who you want to invite: ![]() Fortunately, other than it taking me hours to wade through my lists in the tiny little window they offer, there's no penalty for having lots of friends at this stage. :-) Finally select all the friends you want to invite, then click on "Invite & Update" and they'll get a party / event invitation and you're off and running for the next Us Festival or... tea party. :-)

Is there a way to send out the event invites to multiple people with out having to go through each and every friend? With only 300 hundred friends and wanting to invite ALL of them, it still takes a LONG time to send it out. Todd said, on January 21, 2008 6:19 PM:
I'm a promoter in DC and I've noticed that many other club promoters will have "events" posted where they have 17,000 members on the invite list (of course, many do not respond). But, the only way I know how to invite people to an event that I've created is to go through the "invite people" option and select the friends I want to invite. So... how do they get thousands invited without actually going the through the traditional process that I do? Rebecca said, on July 29, 2008 8:21 PM:
There are clever little scriptwriters like iMacros for Firefox that will let you get around the tedious "select friend, click, select friend, click" chore (it can take hours for our club's friend list). Good little boys and girls can email me for the code. Maybe. Chuck said, on August 15, 2008 3:48 PM:
Rebecca, I'd love to get that code from you if I could (I'd actually be really appreciative of it). Please? Liz said, on September 8, 2008 8:03 AM:

go to "more on myspace" and then click "events" if it doesn't show up on your toolbar Diane said, on October 6, 2008 10:16 PM:
I'm not able to create an event. I enter all the information (including the verification code) on the "create new event" page, but when I click "save event", it takes me back to the MySpace Events page--no error message, no "event saved" message, nothing. My event isn't saved. What am I doing wrong? Astraa Starr said, on October 25, 2008 9:06 AM:
I did the same thing. Hit SAVE EVENT and i suppose it saved. But now i cannot find my event and myspace wont answer my question. Im interested to i know if the process has changed. Thanks. BigZigKC said, on November 20, 2008 7:23 PM:
I have installed iMacros, Rebecca, but no email is attached to your posting. I am looking for the code, to input into iMacros for automating the single friend adder. I have gotten it to add friends, but cant get it to move past first 40. Any help? Thanks you guys. Zig Meghan said, on April 6, 2009 10:40 AM:
The event app has changed since you've posted this, so it looks a bit different now. I'm having trouble inviting any guests to my event. It simply isn't showing any of my friends no matter what I do. Is anyone else having this problem. I have no idea how to fix it and cannot find anywhere on myspace to report a problem or to get a solutions to my problem. I have also noticed on my events home page it has a box with the header "active friends." In my case, the box is empty. I also cannot find a way to make my friends "active."

I've been trying to create a Public event, but every time I select the event as Public, when I continue through the creation process, it somehow reverts to Private, and there doesn't seem to be any way to edit that detail once the event has been created. Mike said, on August 12, 2009 10:42 PM:
i created an event on facebook and eventually removed someone that I invited on the'awaiting reply' list. However I then went ahead later and tried to invite them again and it will not let me. the person's page is not in bold and i cannot clikc on it to invite them back in. This persons profile does not appear in the 'blocked' list either, as i did not block them originally, but only 'removed' them. What is going on? dsinla said, on September 30, 2009 7:43 AM:
