Adding a call event in calendar

Hi,
is it possible to schedule a phone call in calendar application? Or add an event that is related to a contact? I have looked in the user guide but not found anything like it
Ideas?
Thanks

Open the calender app. Go to the day you want and double touch it. (depending on what view you are using, this will open up the day). At the bottom right of the screen there is a little+ sign. Touch it to create a new event.

Adding Events in Calendar

Is there a setting on iphone that will automatically set an alert when setting a new event within calendar (like it does in ical)?

I have the same problem.

"iCal got an error: Can't Make id of event of calendar 4 into type referen

Hello everyone. i am completely new to MAC's and very new to scripting. Thanks in advance for any help.
I am tying to run an Apple Script that is called Scheduled Delivery.
I'm running 10.4.10 and have the most recent version of the script.
Basically what happens is I type up and email, add in the email address and save it to my drafts folder. The Scheduled Deliver script, when run, finds all the emails in my drafts folder and uses iCal to schedule a time to mail them (which is a specific time I enter)
Here is my process I go through-
I run the apple script by double clicking on the Scheduled deliver Icon, which was in my appications/MailScript folder. It brings up a new window with all my saved drafts. I select the draft I want to schedule a specific time to deliver. This is great.
When I click on the lower right button "Update Schedule" I get an error message...
"iCal got an error: Can't Make id of event of calendar 4 into type reference. (-1700)"
I cannot figure this out. I've tried testing it anyway. I can close the Scheduled Deliver window but the "Done" button is always grey out. It seems to place an event in iCal but no message ever gets sent.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Anyone? Any help is greatly appreciated.

How do I set 4 weekly events in calendar?

I want to add a 4 weekly event in calendar on my iPhone 4S. The only option close is either two weekly or monthly both of which are no good to me.

Roger make sure you have location services turned in in System Preferences / Privacy and make sure the Calendar is checked.
As a test, I turned mine off and then I saw the same problems on the Calendar as you described. Once your turn them on, you should be able to add locations and a map will appear at the bottom of the screen where you edit the event details. You can double click the map to open Maps and get directions.
Stephen. In reply to this:
Some events give me the Travel Time option, but only from "Work" and not "Home". My actual work events don't give me the Travel Time option, maybe because iCal thinks I am already there?
I played around for a bit and think I found an answer. If I have no events on a day and I schedule one for anytime until 6:00pm, it will give the travel time from Work. If I add an event or change the time to 6:01pm or later, it will give the travel time from home.
If there are other events with locations already on the calendar and I add a new event reasonably close to one of them, it will give the travel time from the location of the previous event.
I haven't found a way to change the "from" location without adding another event or just typing in a travel time manually, but overall the automated system works pretty good.

How to Set A Default Start Time For New Events In Calendar?

How to Set A Default Start Time For New Events In Calendar?

John,
Thanks for that suggestion - could not get it to work. However, I did manage a different approach. I finally determined the sequence of events in terms of how the various events and listeners fire (I think).
Basically, the CalendarActivityListener fires, followed by the listener associated with the Calendar object's Create facet, followed finally by the CalendarEventListener - the final is where the TriggerEvent is available and then finally, control is passed to the popup/dialog in the Create facet. So, my approach of trying to set/get the TriggerDate in the user's HTTP session was doomed to failure because it was being get before it had been set :(
Anyway, I ended up adding a bit of code to the CalendarEvent listener - it grabs the current BindingContext, navigates through the DCBindingContainer to derive an Iterator for the ViewObject which drives the calendar and then grabs the currently active row. I then do a few tests to make sure we're working with a "new" row because I don't want to alter start & end dates associated with an existing calendar entry and then I define the Start and End dates to be the Trigger Date.
Works just fine. Snippet from the listener follows
BindingContext bindingContext = BindingContext.getCurrent();+
*if ( bindingContext != null ) {*+
DCBindingContainer dcBindings = (DCBindingContainer) bindingContext.getCurrentBindingsEntry();+
DCIteratorBinding iterator = dcBindings.findIteratorBinding("EventsView1Iterator");+
Row currentRow = iterator.getCurrentRow();+
if ( currentRow.getAttribute("StartDate") == null)+
currentRow.setAttribute("StartDate", calendarEvent.getTriggerDate());+
if (currentRow.getAttribute("EndDate")==null)+
currentRow.setAttribute("EndDate", calendarEvent.getTriggerDate());+
*}*

My iPhone3gs can't create an event in calendar when i use ios5

Please help me!

I had this after upgrading to ios 5. I hadn't enabled iCal on setup so changed this in settings and it then added the + sign back to calendar so I could add events.

Problem setting 2 alerts while saving an event in Calendar?

An incredibly annoying quirk that I have to believe is a software issue-pssst Apple, FIX IT!
Task: Saving a new event in Calendar with both First alert & Second alert. First Alert set (for example) to "30 min before" - Second Alert set to "At time of event."
Problem: Second alert will swap positions with first alert.
My Theory: Every instance where I enter the same time for "Start" time and "End" time for the event (my usual practice) I am forced to swap back the alert times before selecting "Done."
Why I hate this problem: I have to ALWAYS enter my alert times TWICE. I almost always select the start and end times as the same because I am not concerned about when an event is ending. I only need to be notified when an appointment is coming up.
To clarify, my phone does this only when I select the same time for both "Start" and "End" of an event (again my usual).

Hi Leonard,
Do you mean you added a valid value to the ComboBox which is "-" as the value so that in the UI the ComboBox displays an entry "- -"?
Please note that (if I recall that correctly) the "-" is always there - even, if value + description are set as "".
Best regards,
Frank
PS: Sorry, due to the horizontal scrolling I cleicked on "eMail" instead of "Reply".

When I launch my iCal it keeps "adding a new event" over and over

When I launch my iCal it keeps "adding a new event" over and over and over. It never lets me actually get into the iCal aplication? is there a way I can clear and reset mt iCal calender?

Greetings William,
1. Go to iCal > Quit iCal
2. Remove the following to the trash and restart your computer:
Home > Library > Caches > com.apple.ical
Home > Library > Calendars
Home > Library > Preferences > com.apple.ical (There may be more than one of these. Remove them all.)
--- NOTE: To get to "Home > Library" in Lion: Click anywhere on the desktop and then click on the "Go" menu at the top of the computer screen while holding down the "option" key on the keyboard. You will see "Library" in the menu.
--- NOTE: Removing these files may remove any shared (CalDAV) calendars you may have access to. You will have to re-add those calendars to iCal > Preferences > Accounts.
3. Launch iCal and test.
Hope that helps.

"Create Quick Event" in Calendar - specify location

I'm adding a list of events from a spreadsheet into Calendar. I can copy the spreadsheet text then paste it into "Create Quick Event" in Calendar, which does a pretty good job of guessing what I'm talking about.
The problem I have is that it seems to be impossible to get the location to be specified - meaning I'll have to go into each event and manually edit Each attempt (see below) results in the locations text being added onto the Event's title.
I've tried:
In X
At X
Location X
Location: X
(X)
(X, followed by the postcode/ZIP code)
Thanks !

I don't know that it can be turned off, and I don't even use Apple's Calendar much (as a BusyCal user), but you might find it's useful if you learn to use it as intended. That box is pretty smart if you mention the date and location in the box before hitting enter.
Just type the date, time, and place in that "title" box:
"Birthday party Friday 8:00 PM at Joe's Place"
That pops up an event with a start date of the next Friday (e.g., 10/05/2012 today in the US), start time of 8:00 PM, and "Joe's Place" in the location. It strips out the date and time before creating the event title that it pops up; it leaves the location in the title, but the title comes up selected so you can edit it before confirming the event with the "Done" button.
The event is entered in the default calendar, but you can select any calendar by holding down the "+" button a second or two. There may be a way to do it with the menu or the keyboard command-n shortcut, but I haven't found it; you can select another calendar on the popup before hitting the "Done" button.

Endless "adding a new event" popups. Can't stop them

After making the mistake of adding my Gmail account to my Apple Mail, I now can't open Ical. When I do I get a "adding a new event" popup. If I hit "cancel" I get another popup. If I hit "ok" I get an endless cascade of Adding a new Event popups. I have to force quit to get it to stop and it won't allow me to go to preferences.
Any suggestions?

How do I delete multiple events in Calendar on iPhone or iCloud?

If I want to delete multiple events in Calendar on iPhone or iCloud, is there any way to do it?
I don't want to be clicking / tapping for hours...
Thank you!

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Unfortunately, I don't believe that's possible.

How can I disable the "location" pop-ups when entering a new event in Calendar?

When I add a new event in Calendar on my computer (Macbook using Yosemite) and then start to type an address or place in the location field, a pop-up list of locations appears from which I can choose. If I choose one of the listed locations, then a map appears (which I don't want) along with travel times, etc. I want to disable this feature. Seems the only way I can ignore this pop-up list is to hit the tab button as soon as I have finished typing. This doesn't occur on my iphone or iPad (I can just click "done" and ignore the list). I really wish I could disable this feature!

The registration screen should only appear after every 5 launches.
If you register FCE it will no longer appear assuming it is on the same computer.

Easy way to enter multi-day events in Calendar 7.0 (Mavericks)?

I need to create a bunch of multi-day events in Calendar (7.0 under Mavericks)
I think that I had discovered an easy way to do this under Mountain Lion -- double click on the day in Month view, type the name of the event, then type a date range, and hey! Presto!! Calendar created the multi-day event without my having to move the cursor and click to select start and end days in the little calendars.
I can't make that work w/ Calendar 7.0 under Mavericks -- has this changed? I've tried all variations of dates that I can think of - just the numerals for the days (13-19); numerals for month & days (7/13-7/19); including the year (7/13/14-7/19/2014); month names instead of numerals; with and without spaces around the hyphens..
I had Mountain Lion for only a couple of weeks on a new computer before I upgraded to Mavericks, so I don't remember exactly what I'd done in Calendar to enter all the info after double-clicking on a day & have the multi-day entry be created automagically
Thanks for any help
(I'm tying to find any reasons for keeping on using Calendar. I've used iCal for 10+ years to organize myself and my household, but I'm having a REALLY hard time w/ Calendar 7.0 under Mavericks -- no lines between days in month view makes it really hard to tell at a glance which events are on which days, especially if there are a lot of mult-day events; time for timed events after the event in smaller & pale gray letters is hard to see; little colored dots next to events are almost impossible to tell which color so which calendar an event belongs to (I have 11 Calendars); ...)

Tyrone,
The week view affords some of the capability that you are looking for.
Experiment with these suggestions:
1. Select the week view.
2. Choose the number of days that you want to display by selecting (Option +  + 1), (Option +  + 2), (Option +  + 3)...and so forth for the number of days desired for a week display of 1/2/3/4/5/6/7 days. Make sure the mini calendar window is displayed and you will see the number of gray days change accordingly.
3. Create a new item on Wednesday (Double click on the start point) and drag to your desired length, and if the event falls over the weekend change the display length as indicated in step 2 above, and drag the event to the end time.
Let me know if you get the hang of what I am trying to describe. It is easier to accomplish than it is to describe.
;~)
