All Day Events shift order randomly when printing!

When trying to print in month view, my all day events shift order within their day in a seemingly random way. This is a problem because I want certain all day events to line up next to each other day after day in a specific color coded way. This has been impossible for me to accomplish because for some reason what the month view looks like is never what the preview or printing looks like. Is it possible to lock the position of all day events so they print as they appear in month view?

I'm having the same problem only not just when printing. My All-Day events (which I use more as notes than actual events) switch places all the time and I can't make any sense out of it. I thought it had to do with alphabetical order, but that's not it, then I thought it had to do with the order I typed them, but that's not it either. It's particularly annoying when I have two days with multiple identical events and yet they don't have the same order. There's got to be a way to order them manually, but if there isn't, Apple should add it quickly.

All Day Events Shifts Regular time events to the Right. Unable to view meetings in portrait mode

Is there a way to view the calendar with the All Day Events and regular meetings within a portrait view.
Thanks,

Same problem here; if I EVER find out the solution I will post it here.

All day events one day out (early)

Hi
I sync my iPhone 3GS calendar with my Outlook 2003 calendar and yesterday noticed that any All day events were listed on my iPhone for the day before they are listed on Outlook. I have completely deleted my calendar and restored it (which seems difficult in itself) and completely restored my iPhone as well to no avail. What am I doing wrong and how do I rectify this issue. BTW I have only noticed this in the last week and strangely any all day events prior to this week were correct - I can only presume this is something to do with the clocks going forward here (UK) last weekend?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks
Nigel

Another one suffering the effects of this, most annoying.
It does seem to be effected by ALL DAY events only.
If i remember rightly, when i updated to the latest version of iTunes, all of my ALL DAY events ended up changing to be spread over 2 days. Initially i thought little of it and made the changes, but it has go worse.
If i create and ALL DAY event on the iPhone, when i sink with Outlook, it shows the all day event as running from 0100hrs on the day i set to 0100hrs the following day, thus spreading the all day event over 2 days.
Definately think this is a day light saving issue affecting people in the UK?
I presume a fix hasn't been found yet, I certainly hope Apple are fixing it.

Multiple all-day events and one event disappears.

I have multiple all-day events (in different calendars) and now sometimes (not always) one event won't show in iCal. It's still there cause it's now "....." instead of the name of the event.
The old multiple all-day events show perfect but when I try to add another multiple all-day event now, it will only show one all-day event. It will show as maybe timed event as I wish but only one all-day event.
I don't get why this has happened cause I have not changed anything from before except for maybe timezone.
Any ideas?
Thank you

It seems that iCal only displays 5 all-day events, even if you have plenty of room in the calendar window. Change them to timed events and you can see more. Very annoying. I'd like to find a way to change that.

Multiple All Day Events, Printing "Order"

I need to create a log, where 4 fields are used for people to fill in. For ease of explanation, I'll call them "A" "B" "C" and "D".
I have tried using one Calendar, and creating 4 all day events. When I do this, and go to Print the thing, the events get all jumbled around. On some days the order will be A, B, C, D; and on others D, A, C, B.
So then I got the bright idea of creating 4 Calendars; A, B, C and D, and in each Calendar, putting one all day even per calendar. This still causes iCal to sit there and mess it up. One week, the events will appear in the correct order, and others, it won't.
I'm fresh out of ideas, and can't figure out how to make the thing print the events I want in the order I want them. Any help would be MOST appreciated!!!

Order of all day events • printing list view without empty days

I have only just started to use iCal in a work context. I need to programme over 500 events in several different locations (probably up to 10 locations on one day). I have divided these locations into five regions, and have made a calendar for each region.
Times are not important - just the dates, so I have been entering these events as all day events. What I would like to be able to do is ensure that in the month view (and particularly the print out) that the events I put in are always ordered in the same order that I have set up the calendars in the sidebar (I would also like more than 4 events displayed per day in the month view, but that's another matter!). I have been looking on these discussion boards and elsewhere on the internet and this appears to be a feature that many users would like implemented.
I would also then like to be able to print out separate list views for each region (calendar), but missing out the empty days. This also seems to be a feature that is wished for by many users, and has been requested for some time.
Any news on whether such changes will be made? Come on Apple, I mostly love your hardware and software, but there are quite a few of these little functionality issues scattered around the place.

In short, no - there is nothing you can do to determine the the display order of a series of all-day events in iCal. While the appear to generally be listed either in the order in which they were created or in the order in which your calendars appear in the left sidebar, even this is not always the case.

TS3999 In the last week when changing text notes in outlook appointments or all day events, the changes appear on my pc screen, iphone & ipad but when I print the changes are not there, the old text prints that has been deleted

In the last week when changing test notes in Outlook appointments or all day events, the changes appear on my PC, Iphone & Ipad, but when I print my calendar they do not print. I get the old text or deleted text from the printer copy of my calendar. What is going on?

Thanks Sig. The information is here: Anything useful stand out?

How do I control the order of all day events in iCal?

How do I control the order of all day events in iCal? Even if I painstakingly try to
re-order the events the way I want them, when they print, they are in a different order.
I have searched other forums and no one seems to have an answer to this. Has
anyone found the solution? Thanks!

I also have this issue, where the events in iCal change when viewing in print preview or printing. I even notice they will switch if I try to print again??!!! I am using different calendars to show different colours. and they are setup on iCloud not on my mac.
it is becomign frustrating when I print 2 months worth and ssome events are correct in order and alas some will change when I print again!
Can anyone help please?
thanks

Order of All-Day Events

Does anyone know of a way to rearrange the order of all-day events? There are days when I have several all-day events in the same calendar, but would like one event to be listed before the others. I've tried dragging them to the order in which I'd like them, but It doesn't seem to work.
Thanks

All Day Events - adjust print settings?

Is it possible to adjust the way all day events print? I need them to wrap text, rather than truncate the text with ellipses. My timed appointments wrap nicely, so is there a setting I'm missing.

I'm having the same problem only not just when printing. My All-Day events (which I use more as notes than actual events) switch places all the time and I can't make any sense out of it. I thought it had to do with alphabetical order, but that's not it, then I thought it had to do with the order I typed them, but that's not it either.

Opening and ordering all-day events in iCal

I only use all-day events. When I hit Command-N, it is completely random (so far as I can tell) whether an all-day or a scheduled event field appears. Is there some way to make the default for Command-N be an all-day event field? Also, how can one order the all-day events? They seem to place themselves randomly in the list and change order from day to day.

I have the very same issue. I solved it once somehow but now it's back. I use Plaxo to sync between Outlook-iCal-iPhone and maybe that somehow has confused the phone. Let me know if you find any solutions. I will do the same.

How can I print multiple lines in my All Day Events (month view)?

Does anyone know if there is anyway to print multiple lines for all day events? When I print my iCal from a monthly view, my all day events (positioned as a header) only print the words that can fit into the daily box, instead of going into multiple lines and displaying the whole text.
For example:
Los Angeles County Fair, Don't forget to pick up John and Jen
will print as:
Los Angeles County Fa......Jen
Anyone have any idea how to solve this?
P.S. I have already tried meddling with fonts and page sizes to no avail.

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
So far as I know, an allday event only ever shows a single line of text regardless of view.
Consequently, how much you can see is governed by the width of the day (or days) in that view.

Put All Day Events in a New Order?

I have some events that I list as all day events that repeat so I can see which of my day care kids I have on which days. These events are all in 1 calendar (I have multiple calendars). There seems to be no rhyme or reason to the order they are listed on different days. Not alphabetical, not by order I entered them. I want to arrange them so the kids are alphabetical so it makes more sense when I glance at it. Can I rearrange all day events? I have tried dragging them around but nothing changes.

I too, am having this problem. I'm a new iCal user, and this issue alone is enough for me to stop using this application until this issue is corrected.
There seems to be no consistency in the way events are displayed, and events that are manually rearranged (in the order that I would like them) just revert back to the way they were.
VERY buggy application.

Ordering Repeating All-Day Events on the calendar

Is it possible to order a list of all-day events that are repeating on multiple days of a calendar?

If you have iCloud calendars set up on your iPhone, you should have several iCloud calendars. I have Calendar, Work, Home. When you create an all day even put it in one of the calendars. For instance, i would put it in the Calendar calendar. You can select the calendar when entering the event by tapping Calendar label. You can then hide the all day events by tapping the Calendars button located top left on screen (portrait mode), then tap the name of the calendar you used to uncheck. When click done, your all day events will be hidden. Note you will have to rehide the calendar after adding a new all day event.
