Archiving old items

Can I save old calendar items or does iCal automatically delete them after a period of time?

If you look at iCal's Advanced preferences, there are options to delete events and to do items after a period of time you choose. If you don't check those options, I would think they would stay. Just to be safe, you could go to file>export>iCal archive and periodically save your calendar.

  • Can you archive old calendar items in Entourage so you don't run out of space on your Blackberry?

    Hi everyone,
    I have a Sprint Pearl 8130 and I am syncing with PocketMac to Entourage 2004 on an iBook G4 running OS 10.3.
    Most of my syncing issues are minor (for some reason, in contacts, work and home email addresses switch fields, but I can live with that) and I don't have too many complaints about PocketMac for now....
    My question is - Does anyone know how to archive old calendar items so that my Blackberry doesn't run out of space? I have calendar items going back to the beginning of 2008.  I don't need past calendar items on my Blackberry, except for reoccurring items, like birthdays and such, and maybe a month's worth of old appointments just for reference.  My Blackberry has run out of space a couple of times and when it deletes the appointments from my Blackberry, syncing wants to either delete from the Mac or restore to the Blackberry.  I know you can do this with a Palm and their Palm software, since I used to have one and I was able to archive items older than a week.  Then you would be able to access them in a separate archive profile.
    I have searched everywhere and the closest thing I can find is to purchase Missing Sync and set to match my sync date range.  https://support.markspace.com/index.php?_m=knowledgebase&_a=viewarticle&kbarticleid=327.  But that doesn't really solve my issue of running out of space on my Blackberry.  The other thing that I could think of is to export the calendar items into a .rge file, then delete the calendar items from there, sync, and have PocketMac remove items from my Blackberry, but it would be a pain to easily access old calendar items.
    I appreciate any thoughts, ideas and especially solutions!

    I have the exact opposite issue you mentioned
    my client wants his archived calender items to be synched to his 8830 world wide ed.
    he is running RIM software (DesktopManager) v 6.4
    BES 2007
    current issue is that his archived old calendars are not synchronizing to his handheld; we tried to force his PC to synch those items manually through cable, which didn't help, since our BES policy force waireless synch policy to the device and wireless synch never can see the archived items files
    I think if you can set the option on your device so it turns on the calendar wireless synch, and also make sure MAC does not select archive to synch
    Calendar > Options > General settings or /Wireless synch set to ON;
    if you running BES set Calendar Wireless synch off

  • Archiving News Items

    Can someone please help me with how to archive news items after 30 days? I still want these news items to be accessable to users. So I guess I need to know 2 things:
    1. How to archive news items
    2. How to retrieve archived news items
    Thanks,
    Tara

    Hi Tara,
    This depends on what you call "archived". If you just want news not to be published after a certain date, the Timedependent Publishing Service maybe would be enough for you. See http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/e8/a9a76828b8dc469969ff450ec81ced/frameset.htm
    If you want them to move to some "archive" folder (located wherever), you could implement your own SchedulerTasks which regulary check documents if they are "old enough" and then move them into some archive folder.
    Hope it helps

  • Wanted a new item to be released for Blanket PO instead of old item

    Hi All,
    I have a requirement :
    A new item (B) is replaced for an old Item (A), ie the purchasing flags are disabled for the old Item (A).
    And the item releationships for the Old and New Item are defined in inventory.
    There are few Open Blanket PO's where the old item is present in the Po's,now we wanted to release a PO for the new item instead of old item in the PO.
    Client don't want to update the new item to the old item.
    Please let us know how to use this functionlality.And the steps /setups to achive this.
    Thanks
    Sreekanth

    Hi Sreekanth,
    I guess your requirement is not achievable...
    As long as the item is present in BPA then the same item will be defaulted in Release...we cannot use new item here even touch we have item relationship.
    if you require a new release for the new item then you need to create a new BPA.
    I guess Item releation ship wont work here.
    I tried to work it out thru sourcing rules by creating a BPA with old item and putting new item in assign sourcing rule window....but while releasing thru autorelease old item got defaulted in the new release.

  • GRIR Clearing (old items)

    Dear all,
    could someone make a suggestion on how to clear open items on the GRIR account that are over 6 months old. MR11 is run on a monthly basis, yet I have some open items in my reconciliation dating back until 2003. I would like to get rid of them but are not able to make manual postings on the GRIR account.
    Sincerely,
    Lucas

    Hi,
    It is not recommended to post manually on GR IR account.
    You should try to clear this difference with MR11, it is possible to clear old items with the current date.

  • How to archive Open items

    Hi All,
    I am using FI_DOUMNT to archive Vendor/Customer Open Items. If i run the Object for open items saying that
    1 of the 1 company codes selected still have open periods.
    How can i archive Open items, Any alternatives.
    thanks,
    sriram

    You need to establish clearing criteria and clear the items first, then they have to pass the residency criteria in order to be archived.  As Rob indicated, you can not archive open items - that does not make sense.  Your open items directly affect the balance of the A/P or A/R account...

  • F.13/MR11 clearing of old items / changed config

    Hi, I my customer have been live for 3 years with G/L and have recently activated MM!
    The problem is that the sort key for the GR/IR account has been changed during this period and now is it not possible to clear those old items with MR11 or F.13.
    What should I do the clear those old items? Go back to old config and clear the old items (in a period without MM activity) and then reset the old config or is there a short-cut I have missed?
    KR
    René V. Nielsen

    HI Dear,
    You can use other than system settings which you configure, Just select the check box " GR/IR Account Special process "in F.13 and execute system will show the " Reference Key 3 " option it'll update Automatically with GR material document based on that also we can clear GR/IR accounts.
    I think this will resolve the problem. or eals we have to change the configuration setting.
    Regards

  • Don't auto archive old topics, because I might return, some day

    Here is a suggestion: Don't auto archive old topics, because I might return, some day. It is really annoying, that after couple of months or so I come back, and my threads have been locked. Also the message of locking is very small, hard to notice. I just try and try to post, but nothing helps. Then I find out, oh, the thread is convieniently locked. At the very least, the message should be more clear, and different icon for locked messages.

    Hi Barbara,
    For some people it is a useful thing.
    The Example I linked to is in iSight's forum and if you go there you will see it not that far down the Topic List.
    Mostly I have seen nice comments or very late thanks as in the Example.
    Currently at the top of the second page in iChat 3 forum is one I used a similar technique on myself. It is the one with the red Title. (iChat 3 is currently getting more posts than iSight is so it has progressed further down).
    It is an archived thread so even further Helpfuls and Solved stars cannot be awarded ...
    I will leave you to work out what I did and how it could be abused.

  • Archiving old mail messages

    I am trying to archive old mail messages so they do not cram up my inbox. In the past I have successfully created a new mailbox for old messages, given it a month and year, and dragged messages across – but I can no longer do this.
    When I try to drag a message across, I get the message 'Error: the message "xxx" could not be moved to the mailbox "xxx" - On My Mac". Can anyone help me out?
    Not being able to archive old messages means that I have hundreds of already read messages in the inbox which causes, I think, another problem. Every time I open the mail program and click on an unread message, I am told that "The message has not been downloaded from the server. You need to take this account online in order to download it". When I quit the mail program and go back in, the problem sorts itself, but this happens every time I check the mail and it is becoming quite frustrating!
    Happy New Year to you all!
    Regards, Mike
    iMac   Mac OS X (10.3.9)  

    Does the same occur when using the Move To or Copy To command instead of dragging messages manually?
    Every time I open the mail program and click on an unread message,
    I am told that "The message has not been downloaded from the server.
    You need to take this account online in order to download it".
    This indicates an "overstuffed" mailbox issue which means the mailbox has approached or exceeded 1 GB in size (which is the recommended mailbox size limit for Jaguar and Panther Mail) or has some corruption.
    An "overstuffed" mailbox issue can occur at any mailbox size but is more likely to occur as a mailbox approaches or exceeds 1 GB in size for Jaguar or Panther Mail.
    Although your OS detail provided indicates you are running 10.3.9, you posted in the Mail & Address Book - Tiger discussions so I'm assuming you are running 10.3.9 and not Tiger.
    Quit the Mail.app first and using the Finder go to Home > Library > Mail > this POP account named folder (named by the user name and incoming mail server for the account) > INBOX.mbox.
    Move the INBOX.mbox to the Desktop.
    When relaunching Mail, a new INBOX.mbox will be created automatically by Mail within the account named folder. This will allow the Mail.app to function properly again and not risk losing any existing messages or new messages downloaded by the account while working on the old INBOX.mbox moved to the Desktop to recover the existing messages.
    Control-click on the old INBOX.mbox moved to the Desktop and at the menu window that appears, select Show Package Contents.
    Post back here listing the package content file names and size of each.

  • How do i place new item behind an old item on front panel

    is there a "bring it forward" or "place behind" button.  right now i just cut and paste the old item in front of the new item, but not a good way to do it...if its a shared var in a loop it may land in the wrong place on the block diagram when i paste it back in the Front panel. 
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Yes. There's a "Reorder" button in the toolbar.

  • Archiving Old Purchase Information

    Is it possible to Archive old Purchase Information? I have been using ZENworks Asset Manager for several years now and have old purchase information for products that are no longer in the environment.
    When I run a Compliance Report for a product that has several generations of purchase information I would like to be able to exclude it so that it does NOT show purchase information for products that no longer have any Installation Information. Setting the criteria on the left does not allow me to get detailed enough for what I want. My only other option has been creating Custom Reports.
    I don't want to delete the old Purchase Information, it has been useful on more than one occassion. What are some of my options that I have not thought about?

  • Archiving old photos and iPhoto 9.5

    So,
    The newest version of iPhoto has not only dropped the ability to burn old photos to CD and DVD, it's stopped supporting reading libraries that are set read-only.
    Even worse, even if you do use the iPhoto Library Ugrader to convert a backup DVD to modern format, when you open in it in iPhoto, iPhoto will promply try to sync it to your iPad, your iPhone, PhotoStream and everything else.
    SO HOW THE HECK AM I SUPPOSED TO ARCHIVE OLD PHOTOS?!?
    This is ridiculous. Does anyone have any idea for a good process for archiving old photos in a way that they can still be accessed without worrying about them being "contaminated" with stuff from your photostream or other current sources?

    You archive old libraries to HD's. Turn off Photostream, FB et al and nothing will be "infected".
    You might be able to use an app like Keyboard Maestro to automate the upgrade procedure.
    My sole contribution to the thread prior to your sarcasm. It offers two solutions to your queries. No argument. I blamed you for nothing, I simply explained the problem you have and indeed offered a solution. Nowhere do I say that anything is your wife's fault, so the notion that I blamed her for anything is twaddle. You're the one that mentioned it.
    I said nothign about exporting photos at all, and the solution I suggested woud preserve all the tags, descriptions and ratings. But then, if you weren't so busy being sacastic to people who are trying to help you, you might read what I said again:
    The solution to your iPhoto problem is simple: Copy all the Libraries to a HD. Upgrade them. Merge them into one. Turn off any features you don't want. Have a robust back up system in place.
    Export? Lose metadata? Not if you do it right.
