Best calendar app? need repeating alert, not just once

I'm looking for a calendar app that keeps notifying me repeatedly until I acknowledge it. From what I've seen, most calendar apps (along with the built-in one) only have a one-time alert, or the alert will alert you every other minute if you fail to acknowledge the notification. I like to keep my phone on vibrate so this is a problem. I'd like it to continuously vibrate as if I'm getting a phone call, until I acknowledge the alert. If anyone can help me out, I'd greatly appreciate it. Thanks.

You can configure a google calendar to sync any way you want (2way or 1way either way).  A gmail account is free - http://www.google.com/intl/en/googlecalendar/about.html
I don't use any "app" to keep my calendars sync'd - I use iCal on my MBP, calendar on my iPhone and iPad, and Exchange on my windows machine.  All calendars either read/write to the google calendar or you can set them independently to only read from or only write to it.
That is what I use to keep both my personal and my work calendars syncronized on my computers and my mobile devices.  So I cannot speak to any other options, sorry - I use google for all that.

  • All apps need to update not showing in iTunes

    All apps need to update not showing in iTunes. For example, 50 apps need to update. On section "Updates" shows only 10 programs. If you click on the "Update all programs" is updating all 50 programs. Last version of iTunes (11.1.5) installed.

    On your MacBook yes, but not on another device. That should take place when your phone syncs with your iTunes. I wonder if what you are observing is due to the fact that you have turned off Wi-Fi syncing with your phone. Connect the phone to iTunes with the USB cable, select the summary tab and ensure that the option to sync over Wi-Fi is checked.

  • Can the ipad reminders app import tasks from the calendar app so I can enter items once?

    Can the ipad reminders app import tasks from the calendar app so I can enter items once?

    Depends on an account. The Tasks in Exchange will populate Reminders, and you can use Reminders in iCloud, but natively entering something in Calendar does not reflect in Reminders.

  • IPad calendar app day view does not update to "Today"

    Everyday when I open my calendar app in day view, it always show the last date when I view the calendar. It does not automatically switch to Today's date. In other words, if I open the calendar yesterday dec 24, when I open this morning dec 25 the day view still show Dec 24. The icon did change to 25 and Dec 25 is marked blue which means it knows that today is 25. However the day view still show 24. Can anyone please tell me what do I need to do to make the day view automatically update to whatever today's date is? Should I returned my IPad?
    Pleaseeee

    No one ever used the calendar app? Can someone please tell me whether or not my calendar app working correctly or do I need to get replacement for my Ipad (4th generation)?

  • Since downloading OS 6 for my iPad, my calendar keeps issuing repeated alerts - even though I didn't even initiate one.  Is there a way to stop this from happening?  Thanks for your input !

    Since downloading OS6 for my iPad, the calendar keeps issuing repeated & different alerts for events even when I initiated none.
    Any suggestions as how to stop this will be most appreciated.
    Thank you in advance !

    This is the same issue that has plagued me for years. I always thought that this was a Flash plugin issue, but it does occur on HTML5 as well. A friend of mine verified that this does not occur in Linux, but only on Windows. It would be great to have this fixed, as it's honestly the only thing that's making me use Chrome all the time, as I don't want to have multiple browsers open.

  • Calendar app needed

    I need a calendar app that allows custom recurring appointments (e.g. 5, 6 week intervals) for the iPhone. Can anyone help?

    Same problem here (iPhone 4S with Exchange Server 2003). Did you find a solution or an app?
    One "solution" is, not to delete the calendar requests in Outlook on the PC side.  Kind of an annoying workaround and bears the risk that you reply twice to the same invitation request.
    Any hint would be greatly appreciated.

  • Does calendar app need to be open for iCloud sync?

    Hi @all,
    I was just wondering the following about the sync function with iCloud: When I add a new calendar entry on my MacBook will it be pushed automatically to my iPhone from the cloud without having the actual calendar app open on the iPhone? I am asking because I am not frequently connected to a data network so what happens with this new entry in my calendar? Let's say I connect to a data network but don't open the calendar app. I leave the data network connection open for a while and then close it. After closing the data network connection I open the calendar app but the new entry does not appear. Will the new entry be synced to my iPhone only when I open the calendar app and only when I am connected to a data network at the same time?
    Thanks
    Martin

    Define background.  Do you mean the app open but minimized or app is actually not open.  I have photos in my dock for quick access.  It is closed and does not have the dot underneath showing it is open but minimized.  If the app is completely closed is iCloud working in the background upload/downloading photos?

  • IOS7.1.1 messages Repeat Alerts not working

    Hi - Since updating to iOS7.1.1 the repeat message alert for SMS /TXT's is no longer working. I have checked my settings which look unchange
    Notification Center > Messages > Repeat Alerts > 10 times
    Has anyone else had the same issue or no a solution
    Thanks 

    is irrelevant that it was newer called "live"
    No, he asked for "LIVE", both in the title and first line of the first post.  And no one still knows exactly what he meant, including you.  I can only infer the the real meaning of "live" meaning real time,  in the real world.  Also iIn this world, YOU defined it as "360 degree panorama", which also never existed on iPhones
    There is absolutely no reason to deny that this feature existed,
    It didn't exist, both as the OP and yourself described it.  What did briefly existed - the ability to use and iPhone panorama photo for wallpaper - is not what either of you described and was wisely omitted in the released iOS. There were many complaints about it.
    And if you mean it would break the nda to discuss this, the whole thread sould be removed!
    As it should...

  • Best Calendar App to connect to Google Calendar and color code appointments

    I am looking for a replacement calendar app that will connect to Google Calendar and allow me to color code individual appointments.  I have looked at a ton of apps in the app store but none of them talk about the color coding option I am looking for.  I don't want to do the trial and error thing and waste my time and money.

  • My ipad 2 won't update apps. It shows that 2 apps need updating, but not which ones.

    My iPad 2 won't update apps. It shows that 2 apps need updating, but doesn't show which 2.

    Many people are having this problem for the last couple of days. This is a problem that Apple has to fix. If you look around the forum, you will see many, many discusssions about this and they have been going on for a few days.
    According to Fly150 in another discussion, this is a workaround - for the time being.
    If you want to update the Apps while waiting for Apple to fix Updates:
    1. Go to App Store
    2. Select Purchased
    3. Select All
    4. Scroll down to find the Apps showing update
    5. Select update on the Apps
    This should update the Apps and get rid of the update count in App Store.

  • Why we need Air Conditioning – not just for Comfort!

    As far back as the Ancient Romans there is evidence of air-conditioned homes. Water from the aqueducts were circulated through their walls of to cool them. However, the first electrical air conditioner was invented by Willis Carrier in 1902. He invented it not for comfort, but for a publishing company to keep down the temperature and humidity so the paper did not expand or contract. Since then air conditioning has become one of the most significant engineering achievements of the last century and has impacted the economy and the world in many ways. If you think comfort is the only reason you need air conditioning in your home, think again as there are many other benefits.

    This article made for a great read and was interesting to find out about the history air conditioning. Air conditioning is great in helping us keep cool during the warm months of the summer. I am actually surprised that it could mostly be found in movie theaters in its ealriest days. If that was the case, I can imagine people flocking to movie theaters during that early period in time. Possibly, some of the best uses for air conditioning units today can be found in the home, the regrigerator. The refrigerating unit is basically the same in the way it functions; the goal is to extract warm air from within the unit to keep the contents within it cool. What would we do without the modern refrigerator? food preservation would be hard.

  • Why do apps need *repeatedly* need permission to allow incoming connections

    Even though I have added them to the list of allowed programs in the Security preference pane, many apps still ask me to “Allow” or “Block” access to incoming connections for my firewall. In the same dialog it recommends that I can avoid seeing this in the future by adding this app to my list of allowed programs—but I've already done so! And it's still asking me for permission.
    Why?

    Two things come to mind: (a) your ALF is borked and (b) the apps keep changing (for example, you add an app and then update it with a new version).
    Try removing the file called com.apple.alf.plist in *Macintosh HD/Library/Preferences/* and rebooting. Then just add the "offending" applications as they request that they should.
