How can I get iCal not to show the same birthday dates from my iCloud

How can I get iCal not to show the same birthday dates from my iCloud?

You don't need them stored locally for a backup. You can manually export your contacts as archive for backup. Also, if you are backing up with Time Machine, you already have a backup. If your hard drive crashed, you would have to rely on your backup or iCloud anyway.
So, if you're comfortable with that, sign out of iCloud. Choose to delete contacts from the computer. When you sign back into iCloud, you should only have iCloud contacts listed in AB. When you open iCal, you should only have one listing for birthdays.
The other alternative is to disable the Birthday c.alendar and create one manually.

  • How can I get my ipad to reflect the same playlist order that appears on my computer?

    How can I get my ipad to reflect the same playlist order that appears on my computer?  My computer has the exact desired order of playlist, but once the system is synced, the ipad does not reflect the propper order.

    In iTunes with your playlist shown in the correct order, right-click on the playlist name in the side-bar and click Copy to Play Order. Enable the side-bar with CTRL+S if necessary. Sync. Note also that the column you are sorting on should have the small triangle pointing upwards, otherwise the songs will play in the reverse order. You may also find that you need to first remove, and then add back the playlist to the device if syncing doesn't update it properly. See this post for more.

  • Downloading TV shows from itunes - episodes appearing seperately not all under the same series despite all the information being the same.  How can I get them to appear under the same series

    Just that
    I have many series - NCIS, West Wing etc where some episodes appear under the series and some appear on their own.
    I have checked the info anf they appear to be identical.
    How do I get them to group together corectly?

    After a couple of days, I'm noticing that the repeat(ing) offenders have more than 10 episodes, and seem to keep repeating them every time I sync.
    They only show once in my phone and in the iTunes Podcasts, but through iTunes and looking at what's in my phone is when I see the repeats.
    Even after I've marked a podcast as played, and deleted it from within my phone, as well as telling iTunes to delete the played episodes, it still shows multiples of the played episodes.
    There doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason to it either. They aren't the newest ones either.

  • How can I get my cache to show the time a web site was visited?

    When I look at my history, I want to know the date and '''time''' a web site was visited. When I look at my cache, it doesn't show either one of these. Is there any way to set preferences to show the date and time?

  • How can I get a container to be the same size as all its children

    In my TitleWindow, I have two children that size themselves
    dynamically.
    No problem, TitleWindow also sizes itself to completely show
    both children.
    Now I have an additional child that I can only position
    correctly if I set TitleWindow's layout parameter to absolute.
    The third child now positions itself correctly on top of the
    first child.
    But now TitleWindow is only as big as the first child and I
    have to scroll to see the second child.
    How can I force TitleWindow to be the size it was when layout
    was set to vertical?
    Doug

    Hi Doug - What exactly are you trying to do? Is the third
    child being added dynamically, and you want it added above the
    first child? If so, you can use the addChildAt() method when adding
    the child to the container. addChildAt() takes an index and the
    child object is added at that index and all other children are
    reshuffled to maintain the ordering. IE:
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <mx:Application xmlns:mx="
    http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"
    layout="vertical">
    <mx:TitleWindow layout="vertical" id="tw">
    <mx:Button id="a" />
    <mx:Button id="b" click="go();"/>
    </mx:TitleWindow>
    <mx:Script>
    <![CDATA[
    private function go():void
    var c:Button = new Button();
    c.label="new";
    tw.addChildAt(c, 0);
    ]]>
    </mx:Script>
    </mx:Application>
    Does that help, or am I misinterpreting what you're trying to
    do?

  • How can I get my website to display the same in multipul browsers?

    I am having trouble displaying my webpage in different browsers. I have run it through html & css validators and they can't pick up on any faults which would through the site out of line.
    When I display the same code on different computers, different aspects of the pages change even though the files are exactly the same.

    Start by running your page through the validator:
    http://validator.w3.org/
    You have some elements which are not nested properly such as scripts running outside of the head and body, required attributes missing, tags missing opening or closing, a <br /> tag in between </td> and <td>.  Then you can ignore the stuff about Flash because the Adobe codes for Flash and Spry never seem to validate.  Some of the other errors at the bottom like no </body> tag can be ignored because they are there, it just means there is a tag not closed before the end of the body so it generates an error saying the body was not properly closed.  The lines below that with tag mismatches will help you determine what is and what is not closed.
    If you get that done and still have errors please let us know what browser/version/error you are having an issue with.

  • How can I get my layout to look the same across multiple browswers?

    Hello forums!  How are you guys?
    I use Dreamweaver to edit my layout for my site.  However it looks fragmented on certain browsers and perfect on others. 
    www.ifuxkswiththat.com is the site.
    Is there something that can keep this uniform amongst other browsers?
    Check it on yours...it might work for you and it might not

    Your best bet is to get it right in something like Firefox or Safari, and then use some conditional CSS to tweak it in IE browsers.
    So put things like this in your header :
    <!--[if IE 5]>
    <style type="text/css">
    /* IE 5 does not use the standard box model, so the column widths are overidden to render the page correctly. */
    #outerWrapper #contentWrapper #leftColumn1 {
      width: 16em;
    #outerWrapper #contentWrapper #rightColumn1 {
      width: 16em;
    </style>
    <![endif]-->
    You can specify the particular IE browser above or use, for example <!--[if lte IE 7]> for IE 7 and below, or <!--[if lt IE 7]> for IE 6 and below.

  • When i click on a photo file in windows , elements opens, then i have to go back into windows and click again to open file , earlier version opens program an file how can i get elements 12 to do the same?

    Elements

    The way I got around the situation was to write a custom folder action and attach it to my Downloads folder. The good thing about this is that it works irrespective of the browser du jour I'm using.
    This way you can define any filetype you're interested in to auto-open when a file is created in the Downloads folder (or any other folder of your choosing).
    It's not that tricky to add. I think I posted the code here many moons ago so I'll try and track it down...
    Edit: It was a post to macosxhints.com that I last linked to: http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=20050122214044554#comments
    Hope some of that helps.

  • How can I get FCP to just send the video (without audio) from the viewer?

    Is there a way to select only the video portion of a clip when sending it from the viewer to the timeline? Currently I am taking the whole clip, de-linking the video from audio and then deleting the audio - not exactly the fastest workflow.

    Neil - Thanks for the suggestion but I am a bit more confused now but perhaps I wasn't as clear as I could be either. I am trying to drag clips into the timeline and superimpose them over other clips and I want to be able to drag only the audio or the video from the viewer to the timeline. Is this possible?
