Adding an event to your iCal on your iPod touch
So...I understand you can sync the iPod touch's iCal with a calendar on your main computer (using Entourage, outlook, or simply iCal.) BUT....can you add events directly into your Ipod touch...and then simply view both calendars at the same time like you can do using iCal on your desktop? Basically, use your Ipod touch as a sort of palm pilot.
Any info on this would be great.

No, you can't do this. Apple have decided that iPod Touch users shouldn't be allowed to add calendar entries and have broken the calendar.
You can let Apple know we want the calendar fixed by filling out the form at: http://www.apple.com/feedback/
It only takes a minute and it's the best way we have of telling them we don't want a crippled calendar.

My Ipod Touch is disabled and when I connect to Itunes to recover it, it states that itiTunes could not connect to the iPod touch “iPod touch” because it is locked with a passcode. You must enter your passcode on the iPod touch before it can recover.
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Forgot passcode or device disabled
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode. -
Tried the below and still no good - any suggestions
iOS: Wi-Fi settings grayed out or dim
Symptoms
In rare instances, the setting to turn on Wi-Fi on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch may appear grayed out or dim. You may see the following when you tap Settings > Wi-Fi.
If this occurs, you can't turn Wi-Fi on, and when you try to turn Wi-Fi on, your device won't respond. If you're using iOS 7, Wi-Fi may appear to turn on and off in Control Center, but Wi-Fi won't respond.
Resolution
Follow these steps to resolve the issue:
Restart your iOS device.
Make sure that airplane mode is off by tapping Settings > Airplane Mode.
Reset the network settings by tapping Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
This will reset all network settings, including Bluetooth pairing records, Wi-Fi passwords, VPN, and APN settings.
Make sure that your device is using the latest software. To do so, connect your device to your computer and check for updates in iTunes.
If you still can't turn Wi-Fi on, please contact Apple for support and service options. If you can turn Wi-Fi on but are experiencing other issues with Wi-Fi, please see these steps.

Why does my ical on my ipod touch not sync with my ical on my desktop imac ical?
It will if I put it in on my desktop though.
Please help,
BrieProbably because you did not tell the iPod to sync the calendar in iTunes.

I recently purchased a new Mac Mini with Lion installed. I downloaded the latest version of iTunes. Now I can't get iTunes to sync iCal from my iPod Touch (3rd gen) to my Mini. Everything else syncs great, and iCal syncs from my Mini to my Touch. My Touch has the latest iOS installed. I have tried rebooting my Touch, removing the sync calendars option from iTunes>Info and checking it again after applying and closing iTunes, and restarting my Mini. Any help will be appreciated!

Lost ical data on ipod touch during sync
Using mac book with snow leopard version 10.6.8. I closed my mobile me account after it expired. I am not using the cloud. When I tried to sync my 2nd gen ipod touch, I lost all my ical data on my touch. Before deleting mobile me, I exported all my calendar data from mobileme cals and imported all data into new calendars "on my mac". The only way I could set up new calendars was by setting up a new group. Don't know if this has anything to do with the problem. Everything else on touch syncs. I tried resetting the touch. I also reset sync history in isync. Nothing has worked so far. How can I get my ical data to sync to my touch?
The "Time Zone Support" in settings on the iPod said Cupertino, USA.
I've turned that off now and it seems to have fixed the problem.
NB: There is a note in the settings that says "When off, events will display according to the time zone of your current location."
Thanks for you help! -
List view in iCal on my iPod touch is corrupted
The 'list view' seems to be all wonky in Calendar on my iPod touch.
The dates for a given day that's displayed don't make sense:
i.e. Sunday Oct. 27 2030 followed by Saturday July 14 2001 followed by Tuesday Jan. 16 2001 are listed in consecutive order instead of today, tomorrow and next day (with correct dates).
Also, the 'events' given for each day listed don't make sense and are often duplicated.
The 'day' and 'month' views however, seem to be ok and not corrupted. The 'list' field in the month view also seems fine ?
Has anybody experienced this ? Very frustrating, since I like the list view.
I make most of my entries/changes to iCal on our main desktop (iMac 24") then sync. to my iPod. The list view seems ok on the desktop.
Any help greatly appreciated.
ps. not sure if the problem corresponded with an upgrade of the Ipod software to OS 3.1 from 2.x....See this previous discussion:

I've duplicates syncing with my iCal and iPod Touch.
I use Mobile Me and have also synced using iTunes, including the overwrite option.
I've reset the ipod too.
But still got duplicates.
Any ideas? I'm unwilling to restore the ipod.First I'd like to clarify some nomenclature. I switched from using Now Up-to-Date and Now Contact to iCal and Address Book. In Now Up-to-Date, there was only one Calendar, although you could have miltiple Calendar files with different names. Within a Calendar, you could have many categories of calendar entries which could be customized as to type style (Regular, Bold, Italic, etc. and Color). I had used it for over ten years and during that time had moved several times and lived overseas in two countries. Thus I had on category for Spanish Holidays, another for Portugues Holidays and many others, with a total of about 12 categories.
When I shifted to iCal, I archived all old calendar entries but my new iCal Calendar ended up with 12 sub calendars. I have culled/combined them to the following list: Club Events, Holidays and Birthdays, El Paso events, Medical-Dental, On-Screen Reminders, Special Days, KId's Events, Work, Theater & Entertainment, Travel plus subscriptions to Birthdays (direct from Address Book), Holidays in Spain, and Holidays in Portugal.
That is the description of my iCal Calendar as seen on my Mac Pro and MacBook Pro, automatically synched through Mobile.Me.
On my iPodTouch, I see at the top, All Calendars, then From My Mac, below which is one subcalendar entitled All from My Mac, and below that is [email protected] (MobileMe), followed by all of the subcalendars I have described above.
I would like to get rid of the From My Mac entry so that All Calendars and MobileMe are one and the same. After reading other threads, I have decided the only way to do so is to talk to a MobileMe expert. -
ICal + google calendar + iPod touch
Hi,
I use iCal to update my events to my Google calendar (using CalDAV) and then use iTunes to update my iPod touch. But the problem is that, the timings from the google calendar is all messed up. The other calendars (the default ones or the ones created within iCal) seem to be okay! Does anyone have an idea how to solve this?
Thank you.Is anyone else having this problem?

Managing iCal calendars on iPod touch
I know there have been plenty of topics in this discussion started by folks trying to get the color codes on their iPod touch and iPhone calendars to match what they see in iCal and MobileMe. I've battled this issue pretty much ever since I bought my first-generation iPod touch as a replacement for my Palm Tungsten E PDA. I don't want to start another one of those fruitless discussions.
I'm pretty much hard-coded when it comes to the colors I associate with my calendars on desktop and laptop (red=national holidays, blue=household events, green=office events, purple=school events, etc.), and seeing different colors on the events on my iPod makes the Calendar app confusing, distracting and hard to use. I've realized I'd almost rather not check my schedule on my iPod, because I can't scan events the way I'm used to. As a replacement for my Palm PDA, in other words, I'm afraid my iPod's a failure.
Unless, that is, someone knows of a way to turn the colors off in the Calendar app or, more likely, can recommend a better third-party solution in the App Store.
My first-generation touch is already feeling outstripped by recent hardware updates, and I'm coming to realize I'll be looking for a replacement before much longer. If I can't figure out a good way to make an iPod touch sync with my calendars, my next handheld is going to be something other than an iPod.First I'd like to clarify some nomenclature.

ICal syncing with iPOD touch wirelessly
IPOD touch will no longer sync wirelessly with iCAL on my iMAC. No such issues previously.
Same problem here and it's much worse after most recent update for iPod touch. I cannot get ANY entries to iPod Touch to update in iCal nor entries I put into iCal to update to Ipod Touch. Any help would be appreciated. I've tried everything I know to try. Thanks!

My friend and I share an iCal calendar through iCloud. Until recently, we received email notificiations anytime either of us made changes to exisiting calendar events or added new items to the calendar. Does anyone know why these email notificiations stopped?
iCloud was experiencing problems with this a couple of days ago, where many users with shared calendars were getting email notifications even though their iCloud settings did not select to receive them. Perhaps when they fixed this problem it reverted your settings to not receive email notifications. Got to iCloud and check your setting for this. If it still look correct, try turning off email notifications, save the change, then turn them back on again and save the change again.
Maybe you are looking for
