10.7.5 update progress bar "upgrading iCal calendars"

I completed the 10.7.5 update on my MacBook Pro (2011) about ten minutes ago. Since then, after opening iCal, the progress bar "upgrading iCal calendars" has been sitting here. I do have a lot of historical calendar data, going back to 2003. Has anyone else had this problem? Will it finish if I let it go, or are my calendars already corrupt?
I'm worried because I've had bluetooth/external speaker audio issues, followed some directions, tried to boot into safe mode, and wasn't able to (left the machine for 3 hours, progress bar stuck at about 25%).
thanks,
Kim

After an hour, I tried to quit iCalendar. It was "application not responding," so I force quit, and got back in. In the title bar, it said it was updating, for maybe 45 seconds. Now it's fine and my historical data (stored locally) is there.
I upgraded another machine, and the Updating progress dialog box appeared for less than a minute and then was fine.
There's probably something underlying that's wrong with my main machine. Guess I'd better get on with cleaning up.

  • Ical is stuck on the following progress bar "upgrading ical calendars". How to fix?

    While attempting to fix syncing this message appeared and has hung up ical indefinitely. I can force quite but cannot fix. Any suggestions?

    jrObert,
    The advice that was given for the OP was offered almost three years ago, and the OP was using OS X 10.6. You are most likely using a newer version of OS X. Try this updated list of instructions.
    1. Disconnect your computer from your internet connection.
    2. From the  Menu, select Force Quit...>Calendar.
    3. Paste this text ~/Library into the Finder>Go>Go to Folder...window and select "Go." This will open the Users Library Folder.
    4. Then open the Calendars Folder in that Library Folder, and move any any files with "Cache" listed in the name field to your Desktop.
    5. Next open the Preferences Folder in the same Library Folder, and move the com.apple.iCal.plist file to the Desktop.
    6. Log out/in or restart, and open Calendar.

  • ICal on my MAC book seems to be hung up.  Msg. says "upgrading ical calendars-"

    ICal on my MACBook running 10.7.5 seems to be hung up.  Appointments from my iphone sync and show up but I am not able to enter anything to iCal on my MAC or change from monthly calendar to week or day view.  The message (for days) shows PROGRESS "Upgrading iCal calendars..."  What should I do to get this working again?

    Roger,

  • Sgned up for iCloud 3 days ago.  Why is "upgrading iCal Calendar" still running?

    Systems: OS 10.7.5 running on iMac 20 (2006); OS 10.7.5 running on MacBook Pro (2008);  OS 7.0.4 on iPad (2013)
    Signed up for iCloud on Tuesday (1/28). On Wednesday, implemented Calendar update.  MacBook and iPad updated smoothly. iMac is still running upgrade.  Progres bar says, "Upgrading iCal calendars...".  Can't open anything in calendar, but alerts for appointments are running.  I can force quit iCal, but it goes back to Upgrading when I reopen it.  Is this normal behavior?

    Like all of you, I am experiencing a problem with the iCloud calendar.  I deleted a contact from my contacts on my iPhone 4, but their birthday still remains on the iCloud calendar.
    Their details were removed from my contacts on my iPhone 4 and on my Macbook Pro.  Their birthday was successfully removed from iCal on my Macbook Pro and from the calendar on my iPhone 4, but their birthday still remailns on the iCloud calendar.
    I tried deleting it from the iCloud calendar, but it always says "READ-ONLY CALENDAR - You cannot make changes to this calendar because it's read-only".  This is because the calendar is a subscription to the birthdays of your contacts.  I have done everything I know of to fix this, but alas, nothing worked.  This is really frustrating.  I think it must be a glitch with the way iCloud syncs because the contacts list on iCloud, my iPhone 4 and my Macbook Pro have all synced correctly to reflect the deletion of the contact and the sync has just left behind a small piece of information on the iCloud calendar.  Information I want gone.
    Has anyone had any contact with Apple over this?  I hope that as more people experience this problem, Apple sorts it out ASAP.

  • Upgrading iCal Calendars...

    When I reboot my MacBook Pro running OS X Lion, iCal comes up and displays a dialog box saying "Upgrading iCal Calendars...". ". This window stays on forever and I finally force quit iCal and start iCal again. This time iCal starts up without any problems. Although this is not a major issue, I would like to get rid of this minor annoyance.
    Following is the information relating to this problem:
    iCal Version:          5.0.1 (1547.4)
    OSX Version:        10.7.2
    iCal connects to Microsoft Exchange Server at my place of employment. In addition it has three other personal calendars associated with my iPhone on it.
    Any help would be great appreciated.
    Thanks

    I've had the same message ("Upgrading iCal calendars...") for over 24 hours now.  It appears to be stuck at approx 75%.  The prgress bar has not changed in 15 hours, but I do see CPU Time increasing, the CPU% changing and the # of threads changing (from 6 to 7 to 6, etc.).
    How can I tell if it's really doing something?
    What happens if I FORCE it out or reboot?
    How long is too long to leave it be?

  • Firmware update progress bar appears and computer won't start up

    Hi,
    I am on OS X 10.6 (the latest developer build, whose build number I can't remember and can't look up because my computer won't start up) and this morning when I tried to start up my computer, it chimed, the apple appeared but then a grey progress bar (like the one that appears during a firmware update) appeared at the bottom of the screen along with the customary spinner. This progress bar didn't update and after 10-ish seconds, it disappeared and left just the spinner. I left the computer in this state for 4 hours and nothing happened. It still starts up in single user mode (but I can't seem to get Open Firmware mode to load) and it starts Windows XP on another partition of my main HD.
    When I start it in verbose mode, it says that my catalog B-tree has keys out of order and it is unable to repair them. Also, I get an error message from launchctl: "Bug: launchctl.c:2033 (23930):17: auditquickstart() == 0". Then later on it tells me to convert a few system plist files to launchd (all in the /etc/mach_init.d/ folder). The very last line says "launch_msg(): Socket is not connected".
    I would rather not re-install the system, but if I have to, I guess I will. I appreciate any light that anyone can shed on this problem.
    Thanks,
    Kyle

    Yes, they (the third-party utilities) both come on bootable DVD's. As I mentioned, since Snow Leopard was just released in its final version, the developers may be in the process of releasing updates.
    Your situation is likely to be a case where the data corruption issue already existed before installing Snow Leopard, and the installation process made the problem more apparent (because something critical was installed where it was affected by the data issue).
    It is a good idea to run +Repair Disk+ in Disk Utility on the startup volume before installing a major system update. Actually, I do it before any system-level update.
    You should also have a backup (at least of your personal data if not the entire volume), in case something bad happens during a major system upgrade. If you were using Time Machine, the easiest recovery would be to reformat the internal drive and use the Time Machine complete volume restore utility to restore the volume back to the date/time state just before you installed Snow Leopard. Then, after restarting from that restored volume to make sure everything is working, start up from the Snow Leopard installation disc, run Disk Utility and use +Repair Disk+ (just to be sure), and run the upgrade to Snow Leopard again.
    If you have a backup of at least your personal data, you may want to reformat the internal drive, install Snow Leopard and bundled apps, install your third-party apps from their original sources, update everything that needs updating, and restore your personal data.
    If you don't have a backup, the best bet is to try either DiskWarrior or TechTool Pro. DiskWarrior is very specialized into repairing this type of data problem. TechTool Pro has similar capability, but it is a more general tool with other features.

  • 10.6.8 update - progress bar not smooth anymore :s

    Basically, after updating to 10.6.8 on my Macbook Air when I move a file over my Local Network over Wifi the progress bar jerks in increments now and doesnt smoothly increase.  I hopw Im explaining it well but it moves then stops for a few seconds, moves then stops for a few seconds.  Its not consistently moving.  It is also say 20 secs slower over a 2.5gb file than my Mini is using the 10.6.7 OS. 
    Any ideas anyone?

    Looking into this a little more, it seems that this is not wifi related as it does the same thing moving files to and from my external drive via usb.
    Could this be due to the new TRIM system with SSD's on 10.6.8 and the way it accessing the drive when moving/copying?
    Noone else get this on the Macbook Air 13inch 2010 128GB SSD drive?
    Thanks

  • Supress (Saves As) update progress bar

    I am using the SDK to perform a batch conversion of files from PDF to TIFF format -
    Everything is working great but......
    There is a progress bar that displays for each file as it is processed.
    Is there any way to turn off the display of the update bar ?
    Thanks.

    Okay , I have taken a look at the documentation on the Core API AVConversion et al and I have the following observations:
    1.       I now remember why I did not use AVConversion in the first place.
    2        The documentation is not altogether clear about how this particular feature works .
    3.       There are almost no examples of how to use this feature and how to get / set the various paramters and values associatexd with the Save As options.
    3.       Addtional help would be appreciated -
    4.       Is there any hope of asking for a tutorial  or a "how to" session on using the AVConversion method ?
    Thank You very much

  • Updating progress bar sent from sub vi

    Hi,
    I have been trying to update a progress bar, but have had no luck.  The progress bar is active when a sub vi is called.  It works fine in the sub vi, but I can't seem to create any kind of reference, output, or anything to get it to update in real time on the main vi.  Here is how the program is structured.  The main program calls a sub vi which reads user inputs.  These user inputs are them sent to an system exec.vi call.  While the system exec is runing, a while loop is executing, which is checking the size of the file that is being created.  The progress bar works fine in the sub vi, but when I wire it up to the main vi, it only shows the final completed status.  I tried creating a global variable, which updates in real time, but it still would not update on the main vi.  I am going crazy trying to figure this out, having spent 8 hours so far on it.  Please help.

    Yes, I appreciate that but I was hoping for something more elegant than the attached.
    Cheers
    Duncan

  • P6 Professional R8.3 - (Overlapping/chaotic update progress bar)

    Hey folks,
    I've encountered another annoying thing/changes when updating progress, the progress bars that have been generated aren't consistent (presentation-wise) with the way it overlaps, as you can see from the the attached screenshots. http://s13.postimg.org/645vrepif/2_error.jpg  http://s22.postimg.org/7ywtt2241/3_error.jpg  http://s18.postimg.org/jx8ozaaa1/4_error.jpg
    If anyone knows the cause / solution to this problem, please advise. Many thanks in advance.

    What you are seeing is called “Retained logic”. It means that started activities are maintaining their relationship logic with their predecessors. In your schedule below you can see that the gap in your second structures activity is the same as the remaining work in the first activity, I assume the first is a predecessor of the second.
    The second activty is still behaving as a FS relationship, it cant start until the first activity is completely done (not just started). Thus it gets pushed out.
    You can fix this in a couple ways.
    Change the link between the two activities from FS to SS and reschedule
    Break the link between the two activites and reschedule
    Change you scheduling “Mode” by hitting F9, Options, “When scheduling progressed activities use”, Progress Override.
    I recommend the first option.

  • When I was updating my phone to iOS 5.1.1, the update progress bar just froze right at the beginning and I decided to switch off itunes after almost 2 hours of waiting and no movement. Now my phone's been wiped...

    and I've been forced to restore it back to factory settings cuz itunes did not show me a "restore from backup" option, progress bar still not moving.... it's been another hour....

    Well since nobody could really help with my situation, figured I'll write down what happened so it may help a few people in need. My restore freeze problem was solved by removing then reinstalling itunes again since I had an older version of itunes and was unable to update without doing so. The "restore from backup" option came back after the factory setting restore and for some reason the whole process only went smoothly when I tried doing it on another computer. Anyhow everything is back to normal now.

  • Update progress bar from repeater events

    I have a component that uses a repeater to download and set information on a collection of items from the internet.  This can take a while, so I tried to set up a panel with a progress bar to provide some feedback.
    Problem is, when the repeater is executing, it apparently doesn't yield time so the progress bar can update. (?!)
    The end result is that the progressbar doesn't show anything until the repeater is done, at which point it shows the last value the repeater loaded.
    So, is there a way to get around this?  Can the repeater be triggered with timer ticks, instead of blindly looping?
    Scouring the docs, but nothing is showing, yet.  At worst case, I guess I can bag the repeater and just fetch the items in a timer driven loop, rather than use the repeater mechanism.  Would be a drag, but I need the progress bar to update.
    Any thoughts appreciated.

    Changing to window made no difference.
    One solution is to show the document being built, now its hidden. Another would be to show the progress in a palette.
    I have never built a palette, is it possible to have a swf-file that triggers javascript?
    Is it possible to add buttons to the palette menu on the top right?
    But solving this would be the easiest...
