24h time entry in iCal bug

Being from Europe, all my clocks are in the 24h format, including all of my Macs and my iPhone. iCal in Leopard shows the 24h clock, but I noticed that when I want to enter a time for an event, it still shows AM/PM, which is irrelevant in the 24h system. Moreover, if I enter 12, it will show 14; all entrances are 2 higher than what I type in. Depending on whether it is AM or PM it makes its own time. I believe this is a bug but I don't know how to approach Apple. Can anybody confirm this behavior?

I have the same troubles. I can't enter the start/end times via the keyboard. I drag the event to the correct hour and then can enter the minutes. If I try to enter the time via the keyboard, I can't directly enter the correct hour. For example, if I enter "12" for hours, the result is "24." If I enter "13" for hours, the result is "03."
This problem has manifested with Leopard. All was OK with Tiger. I miss the old column on the right of the main window that had the details of whatever was selected in the main window. Now, we have to double-click on the event in the main window to get another window which I then have to click on "edit." Too much clicking IMO.

I am getting entries which are 'all day' entries duplicated 8 to 9 times. I have updated my software on the phone to the latest version. Entries in iCal are only once. I have completely emptied my iPhone of all data. Has Apple resolved the issue yet?

Simple solution. Get a real internet service and not a cell phone internet connection service it was never meant to be used as the primary internet service
And how do you lose a home and job and be sued as you claim. What over 10 Gb of data? Give me a break
In my city small claims is $5000.00
And over that amount you can go to a superior court to have your issue settled.

How to rid of multiple entries in ical

How the blazes do you you get rid of MULTIPLE entries in ical? I have read many answers and printed off a few to follow them but invariably i get to a point where I am unable to take the next step! I back track and and unable to find a fault of where I went wrong!! Then I have to ask myself WHY? Why on earth am I having to go to such extreme lengths to get rid of the unwanted entries?
Come on now Apple it is you who should be providing the simple logic answer to this?
I decided to give up? just ignore the other entries it easier than going frantic trying (and anyway I am frightened I may throw the macbook in my temper)
bye bye

Hi pvonk
I do know how to delete the odd file but I have things like bank holidays entered 7 or 8 times and Trooping the colour 15 entres Queens jubilee 14 times.
I just want to stop the thing from doing that and if there is a way my question is why do I have to do it? surely apple should fix it or whatever

I just upgraded to the new mobile me calendar and now all my calendar entries on iCal have been erased. As I type this the calendar entries are still on the mobile me and iphone calendars. How do I restore the calendar entries to iCal?

I just upgraded to the new mobile me calendar and now all my calendar entries on iCal have been erased. As I type this the calendar entries are still on the mobile me and iphone calendars. How do I restore the calendar entries to iCal?

Please always post your System details when you have a query. The upgrade to the new MobileMe calendar produces different results, and different problems, with different versions of OSX.
Snow Leopard: during the upgrade process your iCal calendars should be moved to MobileMe (this can take some time and you have to wait for it to happen). Once done, your iCal reads the calendars from MobileMe so any changes made in either place will be visible immediately. If this has not happened then this Apple Tech Note provides instructions:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3397
Leopard: when the upgrade is completed iCal on Leopard will not be able to see the MobileMe calendars until an additional process is carried out, detailed in this Apple Tech Note:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4330
Tiger: iCal on Tiger cannot read the MobileMe calendars, period. The only workaround is to upgrade to Leopard, or Snow Leopard if possible (Intel Mac required).

DTM deleted old entries in iCal!

I keep my old entries in iCal as sort of a diary. A short while ago I started looking for something from a couple of years ago (on my computer), and discovered that everything that was over a year old was gone!. I was not aware of the archive feature of iCal prior to that time, so just figured I could restore everything from a backup. No go -- don't know how long the data had been missing. So, I manually recreated what I could from my computer at work, and archived it for safekeeping. Last evening I synced my BB Curve again, and now the data from older than 10 years is gone (my data went back to 1993). I had purposefully done an archive just before syncing for that very reason, so I was able to restore.
Does anybody know why this is happening? And what to do to correct it? I know I can archive each time I want to sync, but that seems a hassle. Don't really care if the info is on my BB or not, but most assuredly do NOT want it deleted from my iCal. The data is very important to me.

in iCal preferences>advanced tab...you can select to delete (or not) events and items....see if any of these are checked.

Only receiving repeat entries in iCal on iPhone 3GS v5.1.1 since iMac went down for service

Yesterday I took my iMac in for service. Today I was checkingl entries in iCal in my iPhone 3GS v5.1.1 and all entries were missing except those that were Repeat entries. I tried to go to iCloud to check iCal but iCloud didn't recognize my account and password and said I had to creat a new account.
What is up?

I had this same exact issue while traveling in Italy and France (I returned yesterday 17-October).
Before leaving, I verified by phone w/At&T that I had all necessary features to use my phone overseas. They said yes I did have all necessary features to use my phone overseas. They did offer me their AT&T World Traveler plan for $5.99/month but I declined since I would not use this feature enough to justify the monthly cost. They said my phone would still work overseas, but my per minute usage rate would be slightly higher. ...HOWEVER, I could not connect with any of the available networks while overseas (same results/messages as you).
I just spoke w/At&T again. Now they say I did not have the necessary feature to use my phone overseas. This is what I found out:
1. You can sign up online for the World Traveler $5.99/month plan. This will allow you to use your phone overseas.
2. If you do not want the $5.99/month plan, you need to have the Expanded International Roaming feature activated on your phone. If it is activated, you will see it on your online account under "International Features". Be aware, the rates will be higher for all services (I believe they told to make sure "Data Roaming" is turned off, otherwise I will be charged $20.00/minute for internet access")
3. If you have had your phone less than 90 days, and you want to activate Expanded International Roaming, you must call AT&T and ask to speak with International customer service. According to my recent phone call with AT&T, this is the only department that can activate the services (@ less than 90 days).
I'm still not confident this issue is resolved, but I will find out next time I travel outside the United States.

ICal entries to phone but no phone entries to iCal?

Hi!
Is it possible to copy all the iCal entries to my phone but nothing from the phone to iCal using iSync?
I only edit the entries from my powebook, and use the phone calendar as a reminder. So if for example i erase an entry from iCal, or change it somehow, I don't want the old version to be copied back in from my phone when I use iSync.

Thanks

(i know this is old, but I was digging thru some isync/ical problems)
What you could do is to sync the events you create on your phone into its own calendar. So create a calendar called "Phone" (or whatever). Then load up iSync. Under the Calendars section there is an option to "Put events created on phone into:" and you can select "Phone" calendar from there.
*But*, you will need to sync the "Phone" calendar every time too (otherwise you can't select it with that option above). Still, for everyday use in iCal, you can just uncheck the "Phone" calendar and you won't see those events.
HTH.

Really Difficult iCal Bug (iCal now unusable)

I have an iCal problem that has made my calendar unusable. A little while ago I dragged an email onto the REMINDERS icon in my Dock (not the iCal icon, although we all know how the expanding icons can make precision difficult) to see if I could link an email to a reminder. Apparently it went into iCal instead, and the email text is now displayed as an open window. The open window makes iCal inoperable, but I can not close the window.
I have tried the following, all multiple times:
Turn off iCal syncing in System Preferences.
Force Quit iCal.
Shut off and restart.
Clicking on the window, Command W, etc.
Turning iCal syncing back on.
None of these have worked.

thanks

I assume that it has something to do with a 1900 vs. 2000 preference. I was setting the date and time on a device earlier this week and one of the choices was something to the effect of: "Use 20_ _ for any year ending before 32." I just looked but did not see any such setting for iCal or in the System Prefs but I might of overlooked it.

Changing default Work Center during CATS time entry

Hi Folks,
I am hoping someone here can throw some expert advice.
Currently during time entry in CATS, we have Work Center coming in from the Work Order. Its getting defaulted without any option to change it. Business here has a need to change it. I have llooked into the CATS profile to see if there is a place that enable the WC to be defaulted.
In Transaction CAC1, there is a section that shows what fields are being defaulted during CAT2 time entry. However I do not see the Work Center as one of the option there.
Can any one help?
In short, where do we disable the defaulting of the WC from the Word Order during time entry?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Adding to what Kapil said; if the work centre is a grayed out in time shet screen then you can go to CAC2 transaction and make it editable. By this way users will be able to change the work centre on screen.

Does Time Machine backup iCal?

I had a problem with some lost todo items the other day and checked to see if I could see a backup calendar as a quick way to solve the problem. If I am on address book and enter time machine, I see backups of my old address books and if I am on mail, I get all my old mail messages on the screen (though the todo item is grayed out), but if I am on iCal, I simply get the Finder window.
Does Time Machine backup iCal or do I need to do a manual backup and then let Time Machine backup that file from finder?

Since reading some of the first messages, I have been backing up my calendar each week and putting the backup file in my documents folder. I know that file is backed up, so I assume in case of a major problem, I could pull it from Time Machine and restore the data.
Out of curiosity, though, I explored the folders in my library/calendar path and found a number of folders, each containing a file that was dated either today or within the last few days. I assume each folder is for a different calendar and that in case of total disaster, I could restore these from Time Machine.
My question at this point: When I export the calendar from iCal, if the All Calendars option is checked, am I safe in concluding each of the separate calendars would be there? If I accidentally had one calendar highlighted, would only that calendar be backed up?
