ICal all-day event default time error

Searched this discussion and others but no help there. When I create an all-day event in iCal (time zone support on, set to America/Los Angeles)it reads as Casablanca, Monrovia when synced to Entourage. Due to corp policy I'm sync'ing with Outlook Exchange server via Entourage, sync'ing Entourage with iCal, iCal with MobileMe and MobileMe with iPhone. All works just fine in regular events ... only all-day events have this incorrect default time zone.
Any ideas?

I have the same problem. All day events created in iCal sync to the Exchange server as Casablanca time zone, which I believe is the same as GMT. Events created in Entourage sync without error. Most events created on a PC with Outlook sync fine all the way through to iCal. This seemed to start about the same time as your post, ie sometime around November. Prior to some time in the fall, all day events sync'd properly. I've posted this topic to the mactopia entourage forum but I haven't gotten a response there yet.
I'm using iCal 3.0.6, Entourage 2004 11.4.0, Mac OS 10.5.6. Any thoughts anyone? Apple?

All Day Events Shifts Regular time events to the Right. Unable to view meetings in portrait mode

Is there a way to view the calendar with the All Day Events and regular meetings within a portrait view.
Thanks,

Same problem here; if I EVER find out the solution I will post it here.

Multiple lines of event title and location failed to show for All Day event in SharePoint 2010 Calendar

I have a calendar with SPD workflow to display multiple lines for Title, Attendees, Location.
1. Created a custom columne "Breaklines" and set to "Multiple lines of text"
2. Set Monthly View to display the "Breaklines"
3. in SPD I created a workflow like this:
4. On the Calendar page, I used a javascript to remove the <br/>
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.10.2.min.js"
type="text/javascript"></script><script
type="text/javascript">
function updateCalendarWeekday()
   $('.ms-acal-title').each(function(){
    var str = $(this).html();
    str = str.replace(/</g,
"<");
    str = str.replace(/>/g,
">");
    $(this).html(str);
_spBodyOnLoadFunctionNames.push('calendarEventLinkIntercept');
// hook into the existing SharePoint calendar load function
function calendarEventLinkIntercept()
   var OldCalendarNotify4a
= SP.UI.ApplicationPages.CalendarNotify.$4a;
   SP.UI.ApplicationPages.CalendarNotify.$4a
= function ()
      OldCalendarNotify4a();
      updateCalendarWeekday();
}</script><style>
.ms-acal-item
                HEIGHT:
60px !important
.ms-acal-summary-itemrow
                HEIGHT:
85px !important
}</style>
Everything works fine, except that when the All Day event is checked, the display screwed like this:
I guess that when the event is All Day Event, the Start Time and End Time is not filled by the user (although they show in the form as 12:00 am -11:59PM), so the top line space is now used to display Title and Location. Since the Top Space for
Start and End Time is a single line, it displays everything on one line. Plus the script does not act on this space.
Does anyone know a fix for this problem?
Thanks for any tips!

Is there a way to modify the javescript so that it also works in the "start-end time" space?

HT202337 list all-day events in day view on Mac icalendar with Yosemite upgrade

Before I upgraded to Yosemite, I loved that the day view of the iCalendar on the Mac showed all the calendar events (including all-day events) in a list view. Now that I have upgraded, the day view shows in the same format as week view with timed events primarily displayed and all-day events at the top in a small section with a scroll bar. I use all-day events a lot, and would much prefer the list of events (including all-day events) when looking at the day view! (It is this way on the iPhone, but no longer on the Mac icalendar.) How can I get back to this listed events in the day view?? Or if not, is there a way to move down the bar underneath the all-day events section (to show more of the all-day events at a time)? PLEASE? Help?? Thank you in advance!!

Can't change alert time for all day event

I have an ipad 4, iOS 6.1.3. When. I set up an all day event and I want to be alerted the day before, the time for the alert is 9am and I can't change it. I went into the settings to make sure there wasn't a default set, and there wasn't. Is this just the way it is and I either take it or leave it? Thanks for your help.

You are correct - you can modify whether to receive an alert for an all day event, and, if so, how far in advance. But once you have chosen to receive the alert the day before the event, the 9AM time is not modifiable. I even checked on iCloud and on my Mac, and the same is true there.
(It turns out that other things that cannot be done on iPad, for example, create a repeating event on, say, the third Tuesday of each month, can be done on the Mac or in iCloud and then will function correctly on iPad.)
Anyway, if you would like to provide feedback to Apple, here's how:

How can I change the reminder time of an all day event?

How can I make an all day event remind me the evening before. The only reminder options are 9:00 the day of (which is too late) or 9:00 the day before (which gives you a whole day to forget about it). Why can I not select when I want a reminder? I have tried both alert tab in the event itself, and the default alert setting under settings/mail, contacts, calendars/default alert times.

THis is what I do, and it works for me.....I create two entries. Yes, it is extra work, but it works. The first one is the all-day event. I set that to remind me the day before and two days before.
Then the second entry I set a time on the day, and in the Title Box, I put "reminder about "insert date here". Then I set that to remind me according to hour(s) or minutes before.
IF I want a reminder inconsistent with those, I simply set the start date/time for the actual hour I want to be reminded, even if it is say "11:00pm the night before" when it goes off, I just reset it using the roll thing to the next date/time that I want it to go off.
I am a newbie and still have my old-fashioned paper planner, fully filled out, but find the calendar feature of the iPhone so absolutely useful. As well as the notes. Mainly when I am out and about. I used to tote my book around, now I just enter it on my phone, make myself a note, and then enter the info in my book later on. Paperless society, I doubt that'll happen, but technological devices sure fit in your pocket more easily...
BTw- have you noticed that if you put in a birthday of a contact in Contacts, it will show up in your calendar with a little present icon?

Why is ical creating unwanted alerts for all-day events?

If anyone can point to what might be going wrong here I'd be grateful. This is becoming a daily irritant. I have a number of all-day events listed for most week days in my diary which help me to know what is happening that day with childcare for my son. I don't need alerts to be reminded of these - they are just notes I put to myself in adavnce that let me know how my day is configured. Now, I sync my ical from my home imac to my work imac, my macbook, my iphone and my ipad. On none of these devices do I have default alerts set. I never set any alerts for any of these 'events'. But then, at 9am the day before each one I get an alert. In fact, I get a 9am alert for any all-day event, regardless of whether I set an alert for then, or at all. As I say, I've checked all devices and the default alert a=on all is set to 'none'. Does anyone know why this is happening and how I stop it?

Thanks Malcolm.I'm afraid this issue started for me after updating to iOS6!

OS5-Issue with reminders/alerts of all-day events

Hi there,
in our company we are used to set up anniversaries and birthdays as all-day events with a reminder at 08.00 AM in Lotus Notes which are synchronized together with individual calendar entries to the Blackberries. After upgrading the first Bold 9000's to OS5, the alerts for birthdays and anniversaries don't go off anymore.
The Calendar entries are configured in Lotus Notes as all-day events with a reminder 8 hours after the start time (In the BB-Calendar these are shown as negative values). In the calendar-overview these entries are on the OS5 devices now shown without the bell-icon. If I open one of these events the reminder is configured with a negative value.
Although it is and was never configurable directly via the blackberry-devices (where you can only set the time the alarm goes off in advance, means positive values) , it always worked with all OS 4.x devices.
But it seems that with OS5 it's not possible to remind this way anymore.
Unfortunately, it's no option to put birthdays and anniversaries at for example 8 o'clock in the morning with a reminder at the same time, because the users don't want to have (sometimes multiple) events within their day schedule.
Could someone please verify that this is a OS issue. The used OS is 5.0.0.681, Lotus version is 8.0.
If this issue persists with all 5.x versions we are forced to downgrade back to 4.x.
Thanks in advance

Calendar automatically adding alerts to all-day events

When I schedule an all day event in my calendar, the alert fields show 'None.' I also have the default alert in Preferences set to 'None' for all-day events. After I finish scheduling the event and re-open it, the alerts fields are populated! There is an alert set to 1 day before and a second email alert set to 1 day before. I set them back to 'None', close and close the event. When I re-open it, the alerts are back! Maddening! Any suggestions?
By the way, the default alert settings on my iPhone and iPad are also set to none. My calendar account is a gmail account.

Isnt there any other way than doing it manually? I have a lot of birthdays and anne. saved on the contacts info on my outlook with the alert set to go off at 8 AM but as the previous person said....all alerts tend to go off at 12 midnight which is quite irritating.

Default alarm for all-day events

When I set up iCal, I used a default alarm at 11 pm for ALL-DAY events. I don't stay up that late anymore, and now I have to manually reset the alarm to a more sane time every time I enter an all-day event. How do I change the default to earlier? Note: This is not the same default as for regular timed events ... that one I can change in Preferences.

Well, I couldn't figure this one out, so I just moved the calendars back to my main machine, and published them to the web for sharing with my laptop. On my main machine they worked fine.
Can't figure out why it wouldn't work on the server. Maybe it'll change with Leopard's iCal server.

Calendar alerts for all day events

Am I missing something??? Is there anyway to set an alert to go off on the date of an all day event but not at midnight the night before? It would be so much better if the user could choose what time the alert should go off, like 9am for instance. Who wants an alert at midnight!

No iCal alert on "All day" events in Lion :-(

When creating an "All day event" in iCal in OSX Lion the event is not preset with an alert as it used to be in Snow Leopard. That is frustrating as we now have to this this manually.

How? I doubleclick an empy space in the top area underneath the leather to make an appointment. This then becomes an All day event but when I edit it I see that the alarm is not set. I have to do this manually. Only hour based events will get the default alert set.
