Why does every event double up when I put it in?

I add a event to iCal and it doubles it so I have two events that are the same. I delete one and they both disappear.

Where are you looking when you see two events? And where are you deleting the event from? iCal on your mac or Calendar on icloud.com?

  • Why does every browser run slow when I am doing something moderately hardware intensive in the background?

    I have looked but I don't even really know what to call this. But I can reproduce it everytime without fail and I don't understand.
    Steps to Reporduce
    Load up Safari (or chrome, whatever it doesn't matter, those two browsers have the excat same problem)
    Do some browsing. Not much just check your email or something (doesn't matter what you do)
    Run a application that uses some CPU. (Go play a game, or run handbreak, open parallells, anything that causes a bit of load)
    Go back to the browser and try to browse. Everything is dog slow and unsuable.
    Exit the application (just showing that the app was running while slow browsing)
    Browse sites at normal speed again
    Intresting facts
    I have been dealing with this for a while. So I have discovered a few things before posting here
    There is plenty of free RAM both Inactive and Unused in Activity monitor is over 1G (I have 8G total)
    There is plenty of CPU "room". Nither core is anywhere near 100%
    The goal is under moderate load, so overloading the computer and trying is not what is happening.
    nice-ing proccesses has no effect
    I notice it most when running games, but it happens at other times too, games are just one of the few things that put any load on this mac.
    Other programs work fine. I have never noticed anyother program running slow ever when this is occuring. This includes programs that include the webkit controll, oddly. Though, to be fair, that may not be accurate as I don't experance that as often.
    I have verified disk (everything is fine)
    I have verified permissions (and repaired them, everything is fine)
    Disk and permissions don't seem to have any effect.
    Network traffic does not seem slow, I can transfer files at the same rate when the browsers are slow, or when theyre runnning fine.
    There is no odd hardware plugged in. I have 1 external USB disk that is always plugged in for timemachine and thats it (thoughI have unplugged that with no effect, and I have added other hardware with no effect)
    The websites/pages/browsers seem to run at a normal speed if you don't have them as the active window. Really hard to say if it's just perception cause I am not watching them, or if there is an actuall effect.
    The site being browsed doesn't seem to matter. Any site regaurdless of complexity seems to be effected. It could be Javascript related though that is really hard to tell, but browsing sites without any javascript or even from the local hardrive (test pages with no JS) still take a very long time to load.
    Average page load time is 15-30 seconds during which the whole browser is unresponcive.
    I am mostly talking about safari here as that is what I would really like to use, but chrome has basically the same effect. For this question I am sticking with fixing safari though.
    What I am looking for:
    A fix would be nice
    But I would settle for an explaniation that I can accept.
    I am running a MBP 17" with 8 gigs of ram and the 2.53 GHZ i5 processor. I am fully up to date with both Lion and Safari.

    Also would like to say DNS resolution is not the problem. I do not use my ISPs DNS servers. I use Google's public DNS servers and a in house caching DNS. DNS resolution is fine, outside the browser and the pages are getting "stuck" while loading not while transfering, or resolving.

  • Why does every app pop up when i start computer, why does every app pop up when i start computer?

    When I turn on my computer, I log in with my details and as soon as everything is loaded all the applications such as Word, ITunes, Yoga, etc... pop up as they have been opened.  I have right clicked on each application to ensure it is not labeled as "open at login" and have gone through my system preferences to ensure nothing is setup to open as I start my computer.
    How do I stop all the applications from opening when I start my computer???

    click on your apple logo, top left, then click restart - then take the checkmark off reopen windows when logging back in.
    restart and see if that works for you.

  • Why does my audio only work when i put water on the audio plug?

    whenever i want to listen to music, i have to put water, or some liquid on the TRS (audio plug for earphones) for it to work. It will not detect an earphone without water. There is NOTHING wrong with my earphones, they work in other things without water. They are iFrogz. I need help really bad because i dont want to carry a water bottle on the bus and dip my cord in it JUST to listen to music. It is really annoying
    Ipod Nano 7g Blue

    It sounds like a hardware problem, so it's probably not something that can be solved without repair (or replacement).  There may be a fault in the headphones jack that affects contact with headphones plug.  Water is an electrical conductor, so it improves the connection enough so it works temporarily.  That's my theory...  But because water is an electrical conductor, it can cause a short circuit that may damage the iPod.  That's why the warranty is voided if you accidentally get your iPod wet.
    You can check your current warrany coverage with the iPod's serial number, here
    https://selfsolve.apple.com/agreementWarrantyDynamic.do
    I believe Apple uses the serial number most of the time, to verify coverage.  If you have an Apple Store nearby, there are Apple tech support staff at the store's Genius Bar.  You can make a reservation (to avoid a wait) using the store's web page.

    Otherwise, you can contact Apple tech support through the "Contact Us" web page

  • Why does my macbook shut down, when I put it in sleep?

    It has been happening for couple of times already, and I am wondering if there is any serious going on and I have to pay the support team to fix this? Is there anything specific that I should have done that make it turn off when it is in sleep?
    The story is when it is in sleep the light is showing as normal of turning on and off. but the moment I open the mac, it totally shuts down and if i close the mac again, the light is ON all the time. In order to use to mac I have to use the Turn on/off power to turn it on again. Nothing else works... I have tries typing, click on return, click on the mouse... nothing happens!!!!!
    By the way, this is Mac OS X, version 10.5.8

    The usual steps for resolving this type of issue are
    - Reset the PRAM: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379
    - Reset the SMC: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
    - Calibrate the battery: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1490

  • Why does my iPad keep freezing when watching programmes on itv player or you tube.

    Why does my iPad keep freezing when watching programmes on itv player or you tube.

    Try the basic troubleshooting tips and see if any of these help with the freezing issue.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    Quit the apps. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button.

Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.

  • Why does every Apple update require a restart?

    I vaguely remember a time when OS updates didn't require a complete restart every time you installed one. Why is it the case now? I have had 3 updates in the last 3 days and 3 restarts. The last one was updates to Quicktime, iLife Media browser and iDVD. None of which I would consider a critical components. OK Quicktime might have something in it but I doubt it.
    UNIX is a great because of it modularity and the ability to update components without shutting everything else down. That's what makes it a great server platform. Yes I know occasionally the kernel and other core components need patching and in those cases a restart is required but why oh why does every Apple update of late require a restart?
    Whomever answers (preferably from Apple) please be as technical as you like. I would much rather a real answer than bull.

    Well, you dont have to believe it but that's what's happening. Many updates don't modify critical system files, but those that do will require a restart. Not all updates to QuickTime, for instance, have modified critical system files, so they've not required a restart. However, the latest version does do this, so the restart is required.
    Likewise with iLife, the media browser is a core utility that is shared by the system and many applications and it's installation will require a restart. There are other similar shared resources as well which can get updated from time to time.

  • Why does the music go off when the screen light is off?

    Why does the music go off when the sceen light goes off

    This is usually an indication that your headphones/earbuds are not plugged all the way in.  Double check the connection and make sure that no metal from the jack is showing.

  • TS3700 why does my music stop playing when i press the sleep/wake buttom? it says the screen turns off but the music should be playing

    why does my music stop playing when i press the sleep wake button? it says that the screen should turn off bu the music should still keep playing

    This is usually a sign that your headphones are not plugged all the way in.  Make sure the white part of the headset is flush with the body of the Nano and no silver from the plug can still be seen.
    If you are 100% positive that the earbuds are all the way in, double check to make sure the headphone jack is clean and clear of debris and/or damage.

  • Why does google start up but when i try to access a web page it shuts off

    why does google start up but when i try to access a web page it shuts off

    Not entirely sure what you mean, but if you are saying that the Safari screen is frozen/inactive then try clearing its cache : Settings > Safari > Clear Cookies And Data (Clear Cache on iOS 4) and also Clear History
    If that doesn't work then try closing Safari completely and then re-open it : from the home screen (i.e. not with Safari 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Safari app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    A third option is a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • Why does my screen turn black when I play iTunes while working on iPhoto?

    Why does my screen turn black when I play ITunes while working on iPhoto? I can't click off of the screen but get a message that reads Shut down computer by pressing button in back then turn computer back on by pushing button in back. That's followed by Chinese letters (which I cannot read). I have had other problems when playing iTunes (actually, a radio station on the Internet) while working on  iPhoto. Before, I got a window that would pop up and tell me I had no disk space available, that I would have to quit applications that were open. Not many were open.
    It would be nice if I could solve this problem once and for all.
    Thanks in advance for all the suggestions. I truly appreciate your help.

    That was easy. Thanks. Jan

  • Why does an unknown error occur when I try to save a document as a word file?

    why does an unknown error occur when I try to save a document as a Word file?

    Hi Judy,
    Deleting the Preferences files seems to be missing from your list.
    Quit AppleWorks,
    In the Finder, go to:
    username > Library > Preferences
    In the Preferences folder:
    Locate and Delete the File com.apple.appleworks.plist
    Locate and Open the Folder AppleWorks
    In the AppleWorks folder, delete the following files:
    AppleWorks 6 Assistants Cache
    AppleWorks 6 Preferences
    AppleWorks 6 Translators Cache
    Optional:
    AppleWorks Button Bars
    This file contains your Button Bar preferences. If you have made changes to the Button Bar, but hanve NO issues that can be traced to the Button Bar, it may be left in place.
    Regards,
    Barry

  • Put movies in itunes on one computer why does it not show up when i access itunes from other computers or ipad2?

    put movies in itunes on one computer why does it not show up when i access itunes from other computers or ipad2?

    i just purchased a file that had videos in it. i put them in the itunes library on my pc where i first downloaded them. i was able to transfer them to my other pc, a laptop, through my home network. i am now trying to get them on my mac pro desktop and my ipad2. my mac pro can see the other computers on my home network but i cannot get it to connect to them. i know the operating systems are different but was hoping i could transfer pictures and files from pc to mac this way. haven't been able to get it to work yet. the videos i am trying to get my mac to see came in a folder with both mac and pc versions. i thought if i got the videos i purchased into itunes that i would then be able to get them to my mac pro and my ipad2. i am new to mac/apple and have always been pc-centric so trying to marry it all has been difficult. i speak pc pretty well but am just learning apple. am i trying to do things that are not possible? i sure could use a knowledgable friendly soul to walk me through my issues of having pc and mac on the same network. i have been able to get all computers and ipad to print on my network. thanks.
