How do I show events preview in iCal?

Hi,
I recently purchsed a MacBook Pro w/Retina and am in the process of making the change from Windows to OS X.
On the Windows OS, I had Outlook installed. In the bottom left corner, it had a small preview of this month and the next month, much like iCal, but unlike iCal the dates would be shaded if I had an event or such like scheduled on them. I found that this feature was a great, quick and easy way of seeing an overview of upcoming events.
Is there anyway to get a similar functionality in iCal?
This is the thing I'm talking about:

I had the older version of iphoto and whenever I downloaded photos off of my camera, they would go directly into events.
And they still do
Most likely your camera date is incorrect (correct on the camera - and for photos already imported by selecting the photops and using teh adjust time/date command) or your event sort is incorrect (correct by the view menu ==> sort events)
The photos are showing if I click on "last 12 months" but they are not showing up in Events. How do I get them into events?
Last 12 months is just one of many views of the photos in your library - events are another view - every photo in one view is also in every other view - you are just looking in the wrong place (see above)

    You can find duplicates on iTunes 11.0.5.  I believe there was a problem with iTunes 11.0.0 but was fixed.

  • HT2513 How do I modify event reminder in ical...my email is incorrect and I can not figure out how to change it.

    I am still learning the ical feature after a year of having my mac.  Some simple things are escaping me.  When I go to set a reminder for an event and I want it emailed to me, it only gives me one email option and it is incorrect.  How can I modify it?>

    As long the email that you sent it to doesn't exist and it hasn't been redeemed then you should be able to try resending it : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1541

  • How to remove duplicate events in my ical icloud calendars?

    OS X 10.9.1

    How can I remove them automatically?
    Is there any App available that works?
    Thanks

    Thats a good tip Reggie.
    For anyone else reading this post, keep in mind that if you see "duplicates" with the MobileMe calendar it may mean you are seeing two separate copies of the same calendar.  Before spending time deleting individual events read this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3505

  • How do I get events and changes created on my IOS Calendar to show up on iCal using iCloud?

    Using iCloud I can sync my events from iCal right to my IPod Touch. This is great except for the fact that I rarely create events on iCal. I usually create events using the Calendar app on my IPod Touch because I always have it handy and I feel that has a much more intuitive UI. I was really excited about iCloud being able to sync my events from my IPod to iCal but it doesn't seem to be working. When I create events on iCal they sync to my Calendar right away, but when I create an event on my IPod it doesn't show up on iCal. The same is true for changes made on my IPod to events synced from iCal. the changes don't show up in iCal at all. HELP PLEASE!

    The operating system should read 10.8 - sorry...

  • How do I get rid of event details in iCal in iOS?

    I'm trying to learn how to get rid of event details in iCal on my iPhone. With the event itself "edit" comes up when I touch the item. For event details, however, the "edit" option does not appear.

    Not quite sure what you mean by "details", but after touching Edit for the event, touch the lines with the name and location and a cursor shows with the keyboard to edit those.
    Note that you won't be able to edit Exchange synced calendars.
    Also note that "iCal" is the OS X app.  The iOS app on your iPhone is "Calendar."

  • How can I stop iPhoto from showing Events?

    HI Folks,
    I've used iPhoto for a long time, and I am just completely frustrated at the existence of "Events."
    Every single time I take a photo and import it, I get a new event.
    Even worse, I have hundreds of unnamed "Events" because that method of organizing my photos makes no sense at all.
    When I import, there are generally multiple "events" documented in one import.
    Now I have to spend hours breaking up Events into smaller "Events" just to have it makes sense.
    Not very useful.
    The worst usability offense with Events, is that iPhoto defaults to displaying the Events page when it opens.
    Apple...I don't EVER want to see my photos organized by Events. EVER.
    MY questions:
    1. Please please tell me how I can remove the Events page completely.
    2. If that is not possible, please tell me how I can tell iPhoto to default to showing me the Photos page, NOT the Events page.
    3. Also, how can I view my photos on the Photos page without being broken up into events? (Without losing metadata like the date)
    Thanks,
    -The Craw, former Apple Technical Writer Guy

    A good general step for strange issues is to renew the iPhoto preference file - quit iPhoto and go to "your user name" ==> library ==> preferences ==> com.apple.iPhoto.plist and trash it - launch iPhoto which creates a fresh new default preference file and reset any personal preferences you have changed and if you have moved the iPhoto library repoint to it. This may help
    This does not affect your photos or any database information (keywords, faces, places, ratings, etc) in any way - they are stored in the iPhoto library - the iPhoto preference file simply controls how iPhoto works - which is why renewing it is a good first step.
    Make sure show event titles is off
    and you can merge or split events to make them more useful - you can not "turn them off" since they are just one of several optional views of your photos
