Adding event in iCal on ipad2

I just got an iPad 2 and I am unable to add events in iCal. There is no + symbol and I am unable to add a new event by tapping, double tapping, or holding the screen. Any suggestions? Thanks!

My problem is that there is no plus sign. I have no add button and I can't click on times to enter a new event. Is there a software update to fix this?

Recognizing dates in mail and adding events to iCal

How do I make OSX recognize dates in mail and add events to iCal?
This works on my laptop, but not my iMac. They have the same new version of OSX and iCal.
I cant figure out what setting makes this work on one machine and not the other.
Thanks

First make an iCal backup, File > Export > Archive.
Remove the following to the trash and restart your computer:
Home > Library > Caches
Home > Library > Calendars > Calendar Cache, Cache, Cache 1, 2, 3, etc. (Do not remove Sync Cache or Theme Cache)
If the issue persists:
Remove the following to the trash and restart your computer:
Home > Library > Caches
Home > Library > Calendars > Calendar Cache, Cache, Cache 1, 2, 3, etc. (Do not remove Sync Cache or Theme Cache)
Home > Library > Preferences > com.apple.ical (There may be more than one of these. Remove them all.)
__NOTE: Removing these files will remove any shared (CalDAV, exchange, etc.) calendars you may have access to. You will have to re-add those calendars to iCal > Preferences > Accounts.
Hope that helps.

Iphone not adding events in ical

I had to reset my iphone, now events added on ical or on my iphone do not show up unless i sync with itunes. Please help

This is a posting of a problem and solution.

How can I stop getting emails when adding events to iCal (Mac) or Calendar (iOS)?

This question could just as well go to the iCloud on my Mac community...
I put 'I' in the topic for brevity but it's actually my wife who gets emails every time either of us adds or edits events, whether we do it in iCal on either of our Macs or in Calendar on our iOS devices. Presumably this is to do with a setting in iCloud somewhere, but I've searched high and low and can’t find it. I've also compared settings on our Macs and phones and can't find anything that could be the culprit. It's driving her nuts!
For more information, we share all our calendars so that either of us read and write any of them, and we're both on iOS 5.1 on our iPhones (hers is a 3GS, mine's a 4), and we're both on Mac OS X 10.7.3 Lion (2010 27" iMac and 2011 MacBook Pro respectively).

this seems to be a new "bug" on iCloud. It's happened to many users (judging by the posts here). My wife and I have one shared calendar and we've been happily using it without the email problems (because I had set iCloud NOT to email us whenever an event changed - this was done at icloud.com, a setting there). Recently we began getting emails. I suspect a change in iCloud that was in error, because I just checked my setting and the option to have an email sent when an event changes is not checked.

When adding event in iCal, the event becomes full-day by default. How to change?

Also, when de-clicking full-day the events becomes timed 10am-6pm. When changing start time, the end time follows with this 6 hr gap. Not the worst problem to deal with in this world, but...still. Any way of changing this little detail? I.e. to be able to double click the desired day, getting an event that starts with the current time and a 1 hr gap (as with the old version of iCal, that is).
Cheers

HT2513 Adding Events to ical

Adding address from Adress Book to event in iCal?

Hi,
First of all i'm sorry if i'm not using the proper terms since I use iCal in French.
OK, when adding event in iCal I would like to specify the address by simply selecting a person or compagy in my Address Book but it doesn't seems to be possible?
It would be nice to have it implemented just like the guess! It would then sync to my iPhone and it would be really easy for me to check the road map after in Google maps' iPhone.
If not possible, where can I request that feature?

Greetings,
You could Invite the person who's address it is. That should add the information, I think.

Most likely you have Office 2004 which are PPC-only applications and will not work in Lion. Upgrade to Office 2011. Other alternatives are:
Apple's iWork suite (Pages, Numbers, and Keynote.)
Open Office (Office 2007-like suite compatible with OS X.)
NeoOffice (similar to Open Office.)
LibreOffice (a new direction for the Open Office suite.)

Why does ical put a random time in front of added events when I print?

How can I prevent ical from putting a random time in front of added events when I print?

In Word go to File, Options, Display and uncheck the box to print document properties.

Number 4 is added when typing invitees name in event using iCal 4.0 connect

The client is a new Snow Leopard MacBook Pro it is setup and working just fine with a OS X 10.5 server. All services (mostly iCal Server) seem to be working just fine. The only issues is when adding invitees in iCal event, a number four appears at the beginning of the name as part of the email address of the invitee. The work around has been to just show the Address panel and drag and drop names into the invitees field and the 4 does not appear but if you just start to type the name the 4 appears. It seems to be part of the look-up that is being done by iCal in the local address book and in the address book on the server.
The user can see all of the calendars on the server they have permission to and can and and remove events without issue.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Adding YouTube upcoming events to iCal

When I go to add an "Upcoming event" to "iCal" from YouTube, it will add the event to iCal, but the link to the YouTube video will be part of the event title.
Is this a bug, and/or is there a workaround so that the link to the YouTube video gets added to the url property of the iCal event so that I can simply click on the url to bring up the video.
Thanks

I'm struggling with the same dilema too. Any know how to get Outlook calendars into iCal?

I haven't added events but am getting "This calendar is unreadable. No events have been added to your iCal calendar"

I recently started getting the message "This calendar is unreadable. No events have been added to your iCal calendar". However, I typically add my events by typing them myself either on my MacBook Pro or my iPhone. I don't import from outside sources. I don't know if it's related or just coincidental that around the same time, events that I add to my MacBook Pro are not syncing to my iPhone, but the events added by iPhone seem to appear on my MacBook Pro and my MiniMac. Is there a way to find the event that is being referenced in this error message??

iPhone:
Plug in your iPhone
Go to iTunes > Your iPhone > Info and ensure that calendars is not checked off to sync -- if you are using MobileMe to sync, this option should not be checked
On both Macs:
1.) Go to Apple > System Preferences > MobileMe > Sync and remove the check Mark for calendars. With the new MobileMe calendar system there is no need to have this checked. Close the MobileMe window once this is complete.
2.) Open iCal and then go to iCal > Preferences > Accounts and remove the MobileMe account from here with the minus sign.
3.) Go to iCal > Quit iCal
4.) Remove the following to the trash and restart your computer:
Home > Library > Caches > com.apple.ical
Home > Library > Calendars > Calendar Cache, Cache, Cache 1, 2, 3, etc. (Do not remove Sync Cache or Theme Cache if present)
Home > Library > Preferences > com.apple.ical (There may be more than one of these. Remove them all.)
5.) Open iCal and go to iCal > Preferences > Accounts
-- If the MobileMe Account is already here remove it again and then re-add it being very careful to use the correct name and password (for your 10.5 system follow these steps for re-adding: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4330)
-- If the MobileMe account is not already here, add it in.
iCal will download your calendars from the MobileMe server. Watch and see if you get the error message. If it completes the download (little spinning gear stops spinning next to the MobileMe calendar) go ahead and add a new uniquely named event to one of your MobileMe calendars on both computers and see if it syncs between.
Let us know what happens.

"iCal can't read this calendar file. No events have been added to your iCal calendar."

How do I deal with this error message-"iCal can’t read this calendar file. No events have been added to your iCal calendar." ? .ics vs .vcs?
Thanks

Greetings,
What version of the Mac OS and what version of iCal are you running?
Are you using MobileMe calendars (or any other server based calendars like Google) in your iCal?
While you answer those questions you can try the following troubleshooting:
1. First make an iCal backup: Click on each calendar on the left hand side of iCal 1 at a time highlighting it's name and then going to File Export > Export and saving the resulting calendar file to a logical location for safekeeping.
2. Remove the following to the trash and restart your computer:
Home > Library > Caches > com.apple.ical
Home > Library > Calendars > Calendar Cache, Cache, Cache 1, 2, 3, etc. (Do not remove Sync Cache or Theme Cache if present)
Home > Library > Preferences > com.apple.ical (There may be more than one of these. Remove them all.)
---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.
Once the computer is back up and running open iCal and test.
Hope that helps.

Can't add events in iCal on my ipad2 ...

Hi all ... don't have the plus symbol to add events in iCal. Tried quitting and reloading and a "hard reset". Any ideas? Thanks, in advance!

Go to Settings>iCloud>Calendar>On. Toggle it on and off. Leave it on if you want to sync with iCloud but then don't sync with your computer or you may get duplicate entries.

Events in iCal are duplicated on my iPhone

Changes made to iCal on my phone (moved or added events) are not getting synced to my iCal on my desktop though I have "sync Calendars" checked in iTunes. Meanwhile on my 3S phone, I am getting events showing up in duplicate or triplicate even.
Example: Today I changed the date of an event that was scheduled for the 16th to the 17th, while on my phone. I synced when I came home, but the event still shows up on the 16th in iCal on my desktop.
Example: Two days ago I changed the time of a class (repeating event) I'm teaching this summer from a 4pm start to a 430 start using iCal on my desktop. Now my iPhone shows two events, one at 4pm and one at 430, for every class session.
Twice now I have selected Advanced: Replace information on this iPhone: Calendars without it solving the problem. The multiple events still stay on my phone.
Last week I had to migrate my user profile from my Time Capsule to a friend's machine while mine was in the shop. Afterwards I backed up the current copy of my profile on the TC, then erased my profile on my machine, and migrated the new copy in. I don't know if this is related but the issue with events not copying over to iCal from my phone properly did start last week I think.
