Calendar add event doesn't work right

Click on the + and it opens a window to create a quick event, but you can't type into the box.  Only pressing enter opens the new event window where you can specify the date, times, description.
I'm using the daily view and have Calendar selected as default.

Let me clarify what I know to work:
If you are composing a message, and simply type, for example, www.cnn.com then when the message is sent, this will become an active, clickable, link and fully enabled -- but it is not seen as such while in the Compose window before sending.
However, if you type a word, such as "news", highlight it, go to Edit, choose Add Hyperlink, and then type "www.cnn.com" in the resulting box (without the quotation marks), then it does not get correctly formed to be a valid URL when clicked in the message after sending, despite changing font color and underlining. The Add Hyperlink (to change ordinary words into links via HTML) is designed it would appear, mainly to copy and paste an URL from the address bar of a browser, and there are no typing shortcuts.
I will now use this message to test the same in Safari:
hyperlink1 vs hyperlink2 where the text for hyperlink1 does NOT include the http://
This test proves the same is true of Safari and composing HTML for the creation of true Hyperlinks -- the address used must be the same as what will result in the address bar once the web page is reached.
The code for the above, with ordinary brackets substituted for angle brackets is:
[a href="www.cnn.com"]hyperlink1[/a] vs [a href="http://www.cnn.com/"]hyperlink2[/a]

  • How do I delete items in my calendar when it doesn't work when I hover them over the trash can?

    How do I delete items in my calendar when it doesn't work when I hover them over the trash can?

    There are several ways
         - Selecting the event and hitting the "delete" key on your keyboard (as Wayne Contello said)
         - Selecting the event and opening the "edit" dropdown menubar item, and then selecting "delete"
         - Selecting the event and right clicking, then selecting "cut" (this option puts the event on your clipboard)

  • Creating a keyboard shortcut for Calendar's Export- doesn't work

    I created a keyboard shortcut in Calendar to easily export calendars (let say option-ctrl-E).
    When I launch Calendar the shortcut doesn't work. But after I opened the File Menu, then the Export sub-menu, the shortcut DO work as expected.
    As I need this for an Applescript (there is still no Export… command in Calendar's dictionnary!), it's quite annoying.
    Interestingly, I don't have the same problem when I create a shortcut for "Calendar Archive…".
    I know I can of course use GUI scripting in AppleScript, but it's quite annoying.
    Any idea?
    p

    Does it continue to fail on a restart of the app?
    I can offer a workaround:
    If you need to automate creating a Calendar Archive, just copy all the .caldav, .calendar, and .group folders, allong with Attachments from ~/Library/Calendars/ into a folder called Calendar. Package it up in a folder with a .icbu file extension and add an info.plist file to that folder with the following information:
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
    <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
    <plist version="1.0">

              <key>version</key>
              <string>2.0</string>
    </dict>
    </plist>
    Right-click on a Calendar archive and choose "Show package contents" and you'll see what I am describing.

  • Palatino superscript doesn't work right

    Palatino is my favorite font. But since installing Mavericks, superscripting doesn't work right in Microsoft Word. When Palatino type that is 14 points or smaller is superscripted, instead of being reduced a couple of points it is made extremely tiny. Also, instead of being raised to the top of the line, it appears in the middle (vertically) of the line. Since I use endnotes a lot, this effectively destroys the Palatino font for me.
    According to Get Info, this particular font is Copyright © 1991-99, 2006 Apple Computer, Inc. Copyright © 1991-92 Type Solutions, Inc., so I've had it for a long time. Is there an updated version that will fix this problem? I don't have this problem in other programs, including PowerPoint. I use Office 2011.
    Here is an enlarged image of the superscript (st):
    <img src="http://ti.org/images/Superscript.png">

    I think folks are looking for a solution.
    And I have given one. The Palatino font supplied with Mavericks is no good. The only fix is to replace it with an older version. If you don't have one, you can't fix it.
    Do you agree that Restore Standard Fonts...works ... Yes? No?
    No. That option only attempts to remove fonts from the System and root Library folders that are included with OS X. It doesn't give you an option to restore OS X supplied fonts that are missing.
    I have to presume you installed Mavericks over Mountain Lion. In Mavericks, Palatino is installed to the /System/Library/Fonts/ folder. In ML, that same (correctly working) font is installed to the /Library/Fonts/ folder.
    Presuming this scenario is correct, the working version of Palatino in the /Library/Fonts/ folder was already active. When resolving conflicts in Font Book, the active font is always the one left active. Which would mean it removed the broken, Mavericks installed version.
    As noted above, I fully tested and have proven the Mavericks version of Palatino is bad. I have multiple versions of this font. They are from:
    OS 9
    MS Office 2011
    Lion
    Mountain Lion
    Mavericks
    Adobe Type 1 PostScript
    Adobe OpenType PostScript
    I used Suitcase Fusion to activate one version at a time. Testing in Word, InDesign and other apps, they all behaved as expected until using the Mavericks supplied version.

  • Hover event doesn't work on mountain lion

    I just upgraded to mountain lion and have one MAJOR issue. Any hover event doesn't work.
    This includes the dock animations, hover on context menus, buttons in certain apps (noticable in minecraft a lot, so it affects java), and hot corners don't work either.
    Anyone else experience this issue and have it solved?
    I tried resetting the PRAM and it fixed it, for like 5 minutes, so not a great fix.

    I tore my hair out over the same issue. Based on SaitoLux's suggestion, I decided to try deleting and reinstalling the prefs panel for my Logitech mice (Logitech Control Center).
    Success!
    If you've got this problem and you have a non-Apple mouse driver installed, try deleting and reinstalling. Can't explain why it worked, but happy it did.

  • DVD menu doesn't work right in DVD players

    I've created a DVD in Encore for Mac.  It plays fine on my Mac and on Windows.  However, once it is inserted into a stand alone DVD player, the menu doesn't work right.  I have four text menus.  In the DVD player, none of those are navigable.  Arrowing up or down doesn't work.  You have to click a number on the remote keypad and then play. This also causes "Channel 1" or "Channel 2" and so on to display.  Any ideas how I can get the arrow keys to work?  I don't have a stand alone dvd player to test against.
    Also, in Windows, I have someone that wants to duplicate the dvd.  They're using Movie Maker.  It gives an error that the codec is not installed but doesn't say which codec.  Any ideas on that?

    The only time I recall similar problems was the issue Jeff was asking about above (Mac, Encore CS3, certain OS).  If you don't solve this otherwise, I'd experiment with that.
    You appear to have confirmed that there is button navigation.  (In button routing, each button points to another.)  Where does it break down?
    On the Mac/PC, are you using the mouse?  In the computer DVD software player, there should be a "remote" that you can use to see if the button navigation is working.  Does the computer "remote" option work?  If so, it makes it not working in a standalone player even odder.
    If not, then look at whether the project works before you burn to disk.  Does the "remote" work in the Encore preview?  Or build to a folder, then play the DVD from the folder.  (I don't know how on Mac; on PC, I find the first .ifo in the VIDEO_TS folder, and play that.)

  • When trying to read emails on hotmail on firefox, the "back" button on my mouse doesn't work right. It works fine if I use internet explorer. This started about three days ago.

    Also doesn't work right when I try to click on the inbox. I sometimes just get a blank screen. Seems to work fine on every other site except Hotmail.

    Nothing changed after clearing cashe and cookies and restarting in safe mode.

  • Media player doesn't work right , code# cood1197

    Why won't any of my music play on windows media player and rip any music to my ipod  recovered august since then player  doesn't work right now. product bv545aa#aba  serial# 4ce1031lws ,model # p6754y & getting code # cood1197 & are there any free updates for player ?  thank you.

    I haven't had a problem with either.  I have switched to using MixZing as my player because it also allows me to work with the contents of my SD card and has a nice equalizer function that really works well with a quality pair of headphones or when plugged into my home stereo.  It's available on the Marketplace.
    I do know that with Youtube, I get much less buffering if I pull videos through the WiFi function when attached to my home network.

  • Group calendar on wiki doesn't work but individual calendars do.

    We have 10.6.3 server running as a OD master and I was looking to use the group calendaring feature of the wiki server. I go to the server using a web browser, sign in, and create a new wiki called "test". I then go into settings for the wiki and enable Calendar as one of the services. I save the settings and get a calendar link at the top of the page for the wiki. When I try to view the calendar I get the message in the middle of the page that says "Getting events from server ..." This never goes away.
    When I go to view the calendar for my user, it comes right up. It seems that I have things configured well enough for the web and iCal servers to talk to each other, but something is going wrong with the wiki portion.
    Since we are dealing with CalDav I started by using a web browser to diagnose the problem. I go to https://server1.jaxon.private:8443 and I can see that CalDav is working and I get the proper output. I try https://server1.jaxon.privat:8443/principals/users/username and I get all sorts of great info about the user. Finally I try https://server1.jaxon.private:8443/principals/wikis/test and I get an Internal Server Error. It makes sense that the webpage isn't working since the CalDav server isn't happy.
    The site access log has the following entries when I try to visit the calendar:
    10.0.1.20 - - [24/May/2010:14:44:48 -0600] "POST //server1.jaxon.private//server1.jaxon.private/RPC2 HTTP/1.0" 404 3754
    10.0.1.20 - - [24/May/2010:14:44:48 -0600] "POST //server1.jaxon.private//server1.jaxon.private/RPC2 HTTP/1.0" 404 3754
    10.0.1.108 - - [24/May/2010:14:44:47 -0600] "PROPFIND /principals/wikis/test/ HTTP/1.1" 500 201
    So there are a couple 404 not founds and a 500 Internal Sever error.
    I also get entries in the site error log:
    [Mon May 24 14:43:04 2010] [error] [client 10.0.1.108] File does not exist: /Library/WebServer/Documents/collaboration-availability, referer: https://server1.jaxon.private/groups/

    [Mon May 24 14:44:48 2010] [error] [client 10.0.1.20] File does not exist: /Library/WebServer/Documents/server1.jaxon.private
    Some additional info about our configuration is below
    To start here is the output from changeip -checkhostname
    Primary address = 10.0.1.20
    Current HostName = server1.jaxon.private
    DNS HostName = server1.jaxon.private
    The names match. There is nothing to change.
    dirserv:success = "success"
    Under the iCal server section I have the Wiki Server listed as server1.jaxon.private with the SSL checkbox checked. Under Authentication I have type set to Any, Host Name as server1.jaxon.private, Port 8008, SSL set to Use, and SSL Port set to 8443.
    Under the Web server section I have 1 site enabled with a Host Name of server1.jaxon.private, IP Address of 10.0.1.20, and Port of 443. The Options, Realms, and Logging tabs all have the default values. Under security I have the SSL certificate configured. Under Aliases and Proxy are just the defaults, and Web Services has Wikis, Calendars, and change their password options.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    Apple has a command line equivalent to the Server Admin GUI application that conveniently enough is called serveradmin. If you open terminal on your machine and type:
    man serveradmin
    You'll get the manual page for the serveradmin command. This will run you through all the different arguments you can use with the command and has some examples of the command usage.
    If you type:
    sudo serveradmin settings calendar
    The sudo means super user do. This will temporarily escalate your privileges so you can run the command. It will then ask you for your password to verify your identity. When the command runs you will see all the different settings listed for the calendar service.
    To change the value of an item you would do something like the following:
    sudo serveradmin settings calendar:somesetting="new value"

  • Email event doesn't work

    A colleague emailed me an event by control clicking the event in iCal and selecting "mail event" from the drop down menu. I received the email clicked on the attached ics file. iCal opened automatically but I got the error message "This calender file is empty. No new events have been added to your iCal calenders.". I know the file isn't empty because I made it.
    I'm sure it used to work when my colleague was running OSX 10.3.9 and older versions of iCal and Mail but now I've upgraded him so we're both running OSX 10.4.7 and the most recent versions of iCal and Mail it's stopped working.
    Any ideas?

  • Bug on calendar Add Event

    Hi.
    Days ago I upgraded to iOS 5.0.1 (9A405) and some times have trouble to add a new event on my calendar.
    Press button "+", then type title and time of the event, when I hit "Done" just nothing happens. Event if I hit "Cancel" nothing happens and the App remains on the screen Add Event.
    This has happend twice.
    Thanks!,
    JN

    I don't have anything on that date, but just out of curiosity, is there anything scheduled for March 15th (or 14th) 2010? I ask because you have an event on March 9, 2009, which is the day after daylight savings time goes into effect.
    Either way, you might want to submit feedback to Apple.
