Adding week numbers to calendar

Doing business in Europe requires that I reference the "week number" (the week of October 13 is Week 42), when arranging meetings. How can I add week numbers to an iCal calendar?

  • ADDING WEEK NUMBERS IN THE CALENDAR OF IPHONE

    Hi,
    haven't found option of adding week numbers on my iphone 3gs calendar. in working life week numbers are pretty important and would need the option on daily basis. i syncronise my calendar from office outlook / exchange. office supports the feature, but week numbers dont follow.
    any ideas anyone?!

    I use Google calendar and sync it to my iPhone calendar over the air via Google Sync. There are a number of "gadgets" or sub-calendars you can add to your Google calendar (i.e. Moon phases, contacts birthdays, etc.) that will sync over to iPhone. I searched for week numbers and sure enough there is a "gadget" that will add this functionality with an option of weeks starting on Sundays or Mondays. Though I've never used them, I now have week numbers on my iPhone calendar.
    You would have to set up a free gmail account to create a google calendar but you wouldn't need to use it (mail or calendar) except to sync week numbers if you don't want to. If you want to go through the (relatively) small amount of trouble to do this just start a gmail account and then follow these instructions: http://www.google.com/support/mobile/bin/answer.py?answer=138740&topic=14252
    Except of course you will only turn on calendar. Then (on your MAC) go to your gmail and click on 'calendar' in the upper left. From there click on 'settings' in the upper right, then on the 'labs' tab. Enable the option to 'Add any gadget by URL.' Save this setting then go back to the calender itself and on the right where it says 'Gadget URL' paste http://sites.google.com/site/gcalweeknumbers/Home/calendar-gadget.xml
    Then, on your phone's web browser go to http://m.google.com/sync and sign in with your gmail info. Bookmark this page. Select your device and check the boxes for 'My Calendars' and 'Week Numbers'. Now when you open the calendar app on iPhone tap 'calendars' on the upper left and you should see (yourname)@gmail.com (Exchange) with 'Week Numbers' listed below it. Make sure you are viewing 'All Calendars' within the app and week numbers will show up on the Sunday or Monday of each week.
    I apologize if these directions are not clear enough or too wordy. I tried to describe it for someone without much experience with this stuff (meaning myself). It may seem like a lot of trouble, but if you really want week numbers you can do it!

  • Calendar week numbers in Yosemite do not show entirely in Year View

    Sorry to say this but I'm actually a bit shocked at Apple's quality control to be posting this bug. Bugs are one thing but this is, in my view, absolutely unacceptable.
    Calendar Week Numbers are truncated in the Year View. Only the first digit is shown, which means it shows week number 1 - 9 correctly, but 10, 11, 12... etc. all show just 1. Week 21, 22, 23... etc. show only 2.
    Tried it in a fresh Guest Account, so not an issue with my .plist files or similar.

    Doesn't for me unfortunately with the Calendar List hidden, as to be seen below. I think it could have something to do with resolution and screen space of the display, since resizing the window tends to fix it for specific widths and heights. I'm using a Thunderbolt Display with my rMBP.

  • How do you print a monthly calendar showing week numbers?

    Is there a way to display and the print the week numbers in the monthly view in iCal. I can get the calendar to start on the first day of the wekk, Monday, but I can not find any way to show the week numbers in a column to the left of the Monday column.

    Roger is right.  You'll have to subscribe to a week numbering calendar in order to see week numbers.  I've done this and can confirm that they show when printed.

  • Adding reminders to my calendar items is no longer an option after the software upgrade.  I also can't get to day and week view, only month view.  What's a possible solution?

    Adding reminders to my calendar items is no longer an option after the software upgrade.  I also can't get to day and week view, only month view.  What's a possible solution?  I'm using Andriod version 4.4.2 with kernal 3.4.0.

        @MaloneTP
    Thanks for keeping me updated!  Do you see the screen options displayed in the following link: http://bit.ly/T2koBL for changing the calendar view options in Kies Air?  Also, let me know if you're able to add a Reminder by following these steps: http://bit.ly/T2l9dY.  Keep me posted.  Thanks!

  • Calendar with week numbers of a current month

    Hi
    I want to print the week numbers for given month using java program. say example,
    January 2009
    WK | Mo Tu We Th Fr Sa Su
    1 | 1 2 3 4
    2 | 5 6 7 8 9 10 11
    3 | 12 13 14 15 16 17 18

    5 | 26 27 28 29 30 31
    Please somebody can help me in this regard?
    Thanks,
    Sridhar

    I don't think you will have an issue printing out this list once you have figured what day a particular date falls on. Jan 1st 2009 falls on a Thursday. To find that out use the [GregorianCalendar |http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/util/GregorianCalendar.html] class. You can use the setTime method in this class to set a date, then use the get(Calendar.DAY_OF_WEEK) method to find out the day of the week.

  • Can Calendar show week numbers?

    Is there some setting in Calendar to enable the showing of week numbers? 

    Rick,
    Check your settings in System Preferences...>Language & Region.

  • Displaying week numbers in a calender

    Hi all,
    I read a thread from 1999 which asks about showing week numbers in a calender. A reply said that this will be added to later versions of HTML_DB.
    Does anybody know if this feature has been added to ver 2.0 ? If so, how is it achieved ?
    Many thanks to all who reply
    Rob

    Robert,
    I think you ment this thread How to show the weeknumber in front of the calendar weeks
    But this is a thread from november 2005 about HTMLDB 2.0.
    1999 is my register date.
    So this isn't solved yet, you have to wait for a later version.

  • Can you change the week numbers to start from August?

    When using the Calendar Application on my MAC, using OS Yosemite, I really want to see the week numbers but not from the 1st January, but from 1st August, or even 1st April.   This would allow users to view it by Financial Year, Academic Year or Calendar Year.   Any ideas if this is possible?

    Hi,
    It is not possible to change the extension in Muse at the moment. You can export the site as HTML and change the extensions outside the Muse.

  • 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 configure the number of weeks in a calendar

    I was very convenient to use in a calendar week numbers as I plan all my activities for the week ahead. The calendar iphone 3GS is not the numbers of weeks. Is it possible toadjust them somehow?

    Hi,
    According your post, I know you would like to set the item display limit in Status List web part.
    In the web part, the number of items to display is based on the view which you selected when configuring the web part. The default view for status list is status list view.
    However, I am not able to limit the items’ display number of the status list view. After changing the items limit, the list item displayed would not match the number specified by Item Limit. Thus, it is not possible to limit the number
    of items in the Status list web part.
    It could be a potential issue in SharePoint 2010.
    We will log this issue to our suggestion box. As after the submission, we may not have any time guarantee when the fix may be released, but it may come out on next cumulative update.
    Appreciate your time and efforts.
    Thanks.

  • Getting rid of week numbers

    I installed a program to show the week numbers in iCal.
    I don't like it because it also places a bar with the week number across all the week's days.
    Now I want to remove it, but can't figure out how.
    Any advice?

    Hi John,
    Fantastic !
    It worked.
    All the best,
    Robert
    Hi Robert,
    They shouldn't be too difficult to get rid of. Make
    sure you back up your iCal data in case things get
    messed up. (in iCal: File > Backup Database...)
    (In this I am assuming the events have titles like
    'Week 1', 'Week 2' etc.)
    In the calendar list (on left side in iCal) uncheck
    all calendars apart from the one that has the week
    number events (your 'birthday' calendar).
    On the lower right of the main iCal window there is a
    button with 3 horizontal lines (the search button).
    With nothing in the search box, click this button.
    The search results pane will appear with all the
    events in your 'birthdays' calendar.
    You can re-order these by date, title, priority etc.
    by clicking the title on the relevant column. Click
    the title (or name) column header to order by the
    event title.
    Now scroll down and find the first event that starts
    with 'Week'. Click this event. Scroll down and find
    the last event that starts with 'Week'. Shift-Click
    this event.
    All your events starting with 'Week' should now be
    highlighted. Delete these.
    Let me know how you get on.
    Best wishes
