Calendar duplicates not showing up in ical/snow leopard

After upgrading to ios5 and activating icloud, my ical entries on my macbook duplicated (as did the calendar entries on my iphone and ipad).  I cleaned the macbook duplicates with spanning tools, resulting in an ical file on my macbook that is without duplicates.
when i sync to the ipad, and tell it to overrite the ipad data, the calendar duplicates reappear on the ipad.  this happens even when i restore the ipad to factory settings.  it's as if there are duplicate entries on ical that are somehow hidden.
help.

I had a similar problem to yours which I've managed to resolve.
In my case in removing the duplicates from iCloud and my Mac I had to change the name of my calendar. When I then opened up my iPad I found I still had duplicates there, possibly caused by my having the Sync iCal Calendars box checked in iTunes for the iPad. I tried unchecking this box and removing calendars from syncing in the iPad, choosing all calendars there to be deleted. However I then found that there was an out of date calendar still there under the old calendar name.
I found out from help I got from the Apple Express Lane that there is an inbuilt calendar app in the iPad which uses Calendar for the name of its calendars and the reason I couldn't get rid of the out of date calendar seems to have been due to my having changed the calendar name in iCloud. After checking that iCloud did have all the correct calendar entries I managed to get rid of that out of date calendar by deleting the iCloud account in the iPad and then setting it up again.
I hope that helps.

  • A multi-day/all-day event in the iCloud calendar does not show up in iCal if the "all-day" box is checked

    When I establish a multi-day event on iCloud but do not check the "all-day" box it shows up just fine in iCal as an event that exists on each day along side the other events that occupy those dates.  However, when I check the "all-day" box when editing the event (in either calendar) the event completely disappears from the iCal calendar (it shows up across the top of the iCloud calendar in the "all-day eventt" line.  On my iPhone, there is no change in appearance (the event shows up on each day).
    Anybody have a clue what causes this?  Maybe just a "feature" of iCal beta?

    This is exactly what's happening to me. I've been able to recreate this on a Touch also with OS4. It's not occuring on OS3. I've only been able to recreate the problem on July 30th and August 1st calendar dates for some reason. It may be happening on other dates also but I havn't been able to find any.
    To recreate the problem go into day view on the calendar. Go to August 1st and create a calendar entry. Then touch the left arrow to go back a day then touch the right arrow to return to august 1st and your entry is invisible. It's still there because if you go forward a day then go back a day it shows.
    I've been using list view only now to avoid missing these invisible entries.

  • Shared calendar will not show up in iCal

    Hi,
    I have been sent a link to a shared schedule that is supposed to be set up through iCal but it does not seem to be showing up. It has iCloud in the description of it, do I need to use my iCloud account do to complete it? Or can I just use my Gmail account? I made sure all my accounts in System Preferences allow the calendar to access the information it just does not seem to be working. I have also refreshed all iCal and everything. I just do not understand where I am going wrong here.

    Follow up on my experience. After doing a security wipe and reinstall, I added my gmail email account and google contacts - but not my google calendar. The Z10 operated like its old self - ran cool and battery life was excellent. After 24 hours I added the google calander account - immediately the phone was warm and battery started losing power. In two hours it was dead. I plugged the phone in and allowed google calendar/ Z10 to update/synch for 8 hours. No luck.
    Simply deleting the google calendar account does not stop the problem. A security wipe and reinstall was needed for me.  For now, I simply go online and add appointmenst there.  
    I wish I would have kept track of when I updated the z10 to the latest software, is that what caused the issue to suddenly appear? 

  • Applications not showing in Spaces on Snow Leopard

    I have looked in the forums and haven't found anything specific to my issue. I can't tap F8 because it starts  music in my iTunes, so I set it up with right click on my mouse (yep using a mouse). When the spaces applications show up on my screen in squares,  only Firefox shows up,and the others show up as blue squares with nothing in them. How do I get them to show up? I have the applications assigned to different spaces, not the same one. I have spaces enabled as well. What am I doing wrong or not doing?

    I def. need some help here. I have seen some people open this and read it to see what is going on, but no replies. I still see blue squares where there should be showing my applications I have selected. Am I doing something wrong? Any advise would be appreciated!

  • Why is Screen Recorder not showing in Quicktime on Snow LEopard?

    I need a screen recorder feature to record some  videos and presentations for uploading onto my website. With all the video and audio features included on OSX 10.6 I expected Quick Time Player to have a screen recorder feature - but no dice. There is no feature on the Quick Time menu. I have Quick Time Pro, iMove ( 09 and 06), the entire iWork suite, on an older MacBook (07) with plenty of RAM.
    I must be missing something.
    Also - will there be sound with this feature? Or must I opt for another app and if so, which one? And where are there tutorials about how best to do this? THe need must be fairly commonplace by now.
    Thanks

    Just found another post that tells me QuickTime Pro doesn't have a screen Recorder Feature. So can QT fromSnow LEopard be uploaded alongside Pro?

  • Suddenly, events entered in Calendar on iPhone are not showing up in iCal or iCloud

    Until late November, i had an iPhone 4s with iOS 5.   Then i got an iPhone 6 with iOS 8.  As previously, when i would enter an event in the Calendar, that data would also show up in my iCal calendar and on my iCloud calendar, until the last couple of days.  Now, new entries are not showing up on iCal or iCloud.  I encountered the problem that my iPhone, 64G, is being backed up to the iCloud and after two backups, taking up 2.4G each, my 5G of iCloud storage was used up.  I speculated that this was why my phone data stopped syncing to the other calendars on the computer and cloud, though i did not know for sure.  I deleted one of the two back ups and am about to delete the other one.  I have never had this problem of running out of iCloud storage on my other phone.  According to Settings>iCloud>Storage, i had 89MB.  But since i have deleted one of the 2.4G backups (which was "incomplete") my new entries are still not showing up in iCal and on the iCloud.
    Is there a way to get this feature to work again?
    Are there things i can check or uncheck in settings or in Calendar or  ??   that will get this to work well as it did in iOS 5?

    ckuan -  thank you for replying.  i am really desperate for help.  I have wasted so much time on this. I was on hold with Apple support for a long time and then had a call with a rep that lasted over an hour but he didn't know anything about issues of these kinds.  i was put on hold a lot while he consulted.  He did agree that the data wasn't syncing from iPhone to iCloud and iCal because the iCloud storage was used up by the iPhone back ups.  So he advised deleting one of them.  I now have 2.4G of storage on iCloud.  Am i wrong to think that should be enough?   I still ave the original complete back up (2.4g) undeleted, in case there some reason that i need it. i don't like deleting things i don't have a good understanding of.
    Following your instructions, i went to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars.  I then scrolled down to Calendars and at the bottom, i see where it says Default Calendar.  This raised new questions for me which i will ask you/others now:
    On the Default Calendar page, there is a heading that says iCloud and there is a second heading that says my gmail email address, [email protected].  Under the iCloud heading, there is a list of 8 "calendars," called Work, Family, Pets, Home, etc.  Under the gmail address heading, there is only one option listed, which is my gmail username.  When i went to the Default Calendar option, as i think you suggested if i understood you right, i found that the Calendar with the checkmark next to it was the gmail user name, under the gmail address heading.  Presumably, this is the same setting i had on my 4s with iOS 5.
    I wanted to follow your instruction to change this to iCloud as Default Calendar. but the only option i have is to choose only one of those 8 "calendars," either Work, or Pets, or Home, etc.  Does this make sense?   The only reason i know for having these many different calendars was to give different colors to the different event categories. I didn't really want them to be separate calendars. i just wanted to use the color coding for type of event in my overall calendar.
    I don't know why this is suddenly so complicated and confusing, after working fine  for the first two or three weeks i've had the new iPhone.  Suddenly, when i enter events in Calendar, it's not reaching the cloud.  If this is because my gmail and/or google user name was checked as the default calendar, that was not a setting i would've recently changed.  I never would  have set my iPhone to only use one of the iCloud sub-calendars at my default calendars.
    But right now, per your instructions, i have checked Settings>Mail.Contacts,Calendars>Calendars>Default Calendar to iCloud>Home (Home being one of my 8 sub-calendars).  When i look on the Mail,Contacts,Calendars setting list, under Default calendar, it now says Home, instead of my gmail username.  Just to be clear, there is no way to check iCloud on the Default Calendar page.  i have tried checking it, but it's just a somewhat grayed out heading and doesn't respond to attempts to check it, it's not offered as a Calendar option. Only the various sub-calendars are offered a default calendar options, under the grayed out iCloud heading.  So, i selected Home, for no particular reason. i have lots of entries under different categories.
    Here is the result:   still no new entries showed up in iCloud or iCal.  In January, a couple of days ago,  i entered three dental appointments, for which i have always used Health as what i thought was a category (not a separate  "calendar").  The color of Health events is green.  The color of Home events is Blue.  After changing the Default Calendar from gmail email address>user name to iCloud>Home (blue), the dental appointment in January did not show up.  But when i went into the first dental appointment event>edit and changed the "calendar" to Home, it then showed up on the calendar.  The other two dental appointments which were still Health did not show up. 
    Then, i changed the first dental appointment that is showing up in January back to Health (green).  It still shows up, now, colored green, even though Home/blue is now my default calendar.  But the two other dental appointments are not showing up.
    Does this mean if want to use my Calendar and have the data backed up in iCloud and iCal, from now on, i need to use only one sub calendar and give up  using the different color codes because iOS 8 is forcing me to choose only one sub calendar to be my whole calendar, and the only way to use different colors for different categories of events would be to first enter it as the default sub calendar (such as dental appointment>Home), and then go back and edit it into the correct sub calendar (such as changing it to the correct category, Health) to show the correct one instead of the "default" one?
    Why was this made so much more difficult and complicated than it used to be?  It was working normally up  until a couple of days ago.
    What i need, if possible, is info on what setting i can use to go back to using my gmail address user name as my default calendar, so that it can just work properly as it did before.  It seems ridiculous that i am forced by iCloud to use a sub category as my default calendar and everything that isn't entered as that subcategory will not be processed in iCloud.  Why does iCloud provide these sub calendar category options at all, if it's going to force people to only be able to use one of them?
    What am i missing here?
    Is there a setting that would enable combining all subcategories as one calendar, called iCloud, but where i could still use the different colors for different categories?  

  • My Iphone calendar events are not showing up in iCal when I sync? Syncing has not been an issue till today?

    My Iphone calendar events are not showing up in iCal when I sync? Syncing has not been an issue till today?

    I found this tip from a 2011 discussion on the same topic.
    Open iCal and backup or export your entries. Make a note of the fie name and location, you're going to need them in a minute. Once your backup/export is completed, close the iCal application.
    Open Finder and remove everything inside the "Username/Library/Calendars" folder. For instance, if your username is "Joe", then move everything inside the "Joe/Library/Calendars" folder.
    Open the iSync application. It's located in the "/Applications/" folder. Once iSync is opened, go into the iSync Preferences (iSync -> Preferences) and push/click the "Reset Sync History" button. Then, close the iSync application.
    Re-Open the iCal application and Import (File -> Import) a new calendar. When prompted, use your notes from Step #1 to select the file your created earlier. Once completed, close the iCal application (you should have all of your calendar entries back.)
    Open the iTunes application and connect your Apple iPhone to the computer.
    Within the Advanced section of the Info tab for the Apple iPhone, check the box the overwrites/replaces the Calendar data on the Apple iPhone.
    Click the Apple/Sync button. New, modified and deleted entries should now be syncing correctly.
    That's it! You should be all set and iTunes, iCal and our Apple iPhone should all be playing nicely as friends again. We've used the exact method to repair our own Apple iPhone at least once... maybe even twice.

  • My calendar does not show map or weather

    I installed Mavericks, but Calendar does not show weather, map, or travel time.

    It may well be that Calendar.app refuses to access Google, but why would it need to if the new Maps.app in Mavericks is what it should be (and is) working with? Pasting in a complete, legitimate address should yield a map, no ifs ands or buts. That's why I filed a bug report at http://www.apple.com/feedback/ical.html . It might be helpful if others did the same. (All duplicates are coalesced within a bug reporting system by the triage manager. Duplicate reports demonstrate that folks consider it important -- that's in lieu of being able to vote on a bug, since Apple doesn't open up their bug tracking system to the public.

  • Calendar Widget Not Showing Upcoming Events

    I've upgraded to the latest N900 firmware (pr1.2) and ever since I have had a problem with the calendar widget. All the events are contained in the calendar when I open it however they are not displayed on the desktop widget.
    I've got events loaded for the month of June but for some reason these are not showing. Instead I have events showing for July, September and even December. I've tried removing all the entries and the re-adding them but this hasn't solved the problem. I also created another calendar and placed the entries in the new one, again this didn't work.
    Does anybody have any idea how I can resolve this problem.

    I have exactly the same problem with the Calendar Widget not showing all upcoming events. It will show events way in the future but skip events inbetween. I've tried all day with PC Suite 7.1 and Outlook 2007 and some freshly entered events come across for unknown reasons whilst others do not. No amount of changing local entries to synchronized ones, deleting all calendar info from the phone and re-syncing by USB cable or Bluetooth solves the problem.
    It worked fine before and, as you say, corresponds with the recent n900 software update.
    I SINCERELY HOPE NOKIA READ THESE BULLETIN BOARDS.
    Also, why isn't there a fully compatible PC Suite or Ovi Suite for the n900? I have a PC running Windows 7 and Nokia have told me in the past that they do not have a fully functional, compatible PC/Ovi Suite for Windows 7 and the n900. 
    IF ANYONE CAN HELP I WOULD GREATLY APPRECIATE IT

  • IOS 7 Calendar does not show appointments imported as VCS files in Microsoft Outlook / Exchange. Any solutions?

    iOS 7 Calendar does not show appointments imported as VCS files in Microsoft Outlook / Exchange in Windows 7. I discovered this when downloading itinerary.vcs files from Delta to mark flights in my calendar. The work around I found is as follows:
    Open the VCS file, this will create a Calendar entry in your Outlook,
    Open the created Outlook Calendar entry, go to File -> Save As and then select to save as ICS file.
    Delete original VCS-created appointment in your calendar to avoid multiple calendar.
    Open the re-saved ICS file.
    Appointment will now correctly synchronize with your iPhone iOS 7 calendar.
    If anyone has better alternatives to this process, please help out. Hopefully, Apple will fix this with the next iOS update.

    Hi
    I have the a similar problem - only I can't actually get the calendar to show up. I've added the account and it's showing Mail and Notes but not Calendar. But I'd like it to show the outlook calendar.
    I'm going to
    Go to settings > mail contacts calendar
    select your account that's affected
    But under that account there isn't a calendar showing and I can't see any options to add it?

  • Some Google calendar entries not showing up on phone

    On a couple of occaisions, I've had a whole day of Google Calendar entries not show up on my Palm Pre. Today, just this mornings entries showed up, but the two entries I have for this afternoon don't show up on my phone. I've tried syncing manually a couple of times. I've tried syncing over EVDO/Data only (turned off wireless). I've tried deleting an entry, re-adding it, and re-syncing and no joy.
    What now?
    UPDATE: So, once I got home I looked into changing to syncing via EAS. I didn't like some of the 'features' of that route, so I went nuclear. I deleted the gmail account from the Calendar application and re-added it. After syncing completed, I found my missing entries... So, anyone got any ideas of additional data to collect?
    Post relates to: Pre p100eww (Sprint)

    Deleting my gmail account and re-adding it does not clear up the problem, it hides the symptoms. What if it didn't work, do I reinstall the OS? I've had two occurences of this--none of last Friday's calender entries were in my calendar and yesterday afternoon's entries were missing. There is a root cause and it needs to be found and sorted.
    I missed a meeting yesterday because my phone did not sync up with my Google calendar. This is a fundamental feature of of the Palm WebOS smartphones. Calendar syncing is a fundamental feature of all smartphones and a smartphone that doesn't do this is no longer smart.
    Are there other people who have seen this symptom? Is there something I can do to _help_ gather data for the Synergy team to find the root cause?

  • Droid razr maxx calendar does not show up on gmail calendar even though it says that it has synced?

    droid razr maxx calendar does not show up on gmail calendar even though it says that it has synced?

    I had this same issue. I solved it finally by downloading the free "official" google calendar disabling the phone calendar app (Google Calendar - Android Apps on Google Play) and disabling the phone calendar. Then you need to choose your gmail account to sync with your calendar app. Now my entries on the phone are showing up on my PC.

  • Can you tell me why iPad 2 is not cannot to laptop with snow Leopard it doesn't cannot it

    Can you tell me why iPad 2 is not cannot to laptop with snow Leopard it doesn't cannot it

    You question is garbled. Are you saying your iPad cannot connect to a laptop with Snow Leopard? Restart your computer. Start iTunes and check for updates. If there are any updates to itunes download and install it. Then restart your computer and start iTunes.
    Then reboot your iPad. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the iPad restart.
    Finally connect your iPad to your computer. Use a USB on your computer that is not on the keyboard or connected to a hub.
    If you do these things and it still doesn't show up in iTunes on your computer report back here and explain clearly just what happened.
