Calendar events spanning multiple days

Hi,
For events lasting multiple days, is there a way edit the calendar package so that it displays the event each day from the start to end date?
Thanks!

Hi,
The values(EVENTS) would anyway appear if there are entries in the table on which you are creating the calendar for e.g.
EVENT-1 01-JAN-02
EVENT-1 02-JAN-02
EVENT-1 03-JAN-02
EVENT-2 04-JAN-02
Create the calendar and order by the date field and the data should appear ..
Pl. could you explain further what exactly you want to display.
You can also restrict the calendar display by using the start and end month option.
Thanks,
Anu

  • Events Spanning Multiple Days

    I'm converting to iCal from another application I've used for years. Does iCal support any way to insert and display a line, banner, bar, etc. accross multiple days in the Month View so that I can display the fact that I'm on the road or on vacation, etc. for the days covered by the line, banner, bar, etc?
    I would be happy to provide a picture of what the application I've been using does to support this need.

    Regal909,
    Is this what you are looking for? Creating an all-day or multi-day event:You can create an event that lasts one or more complete days (for example, for a vacation), or an event that spans multiple days with different start and end times.
    To create an all-day event, make sure you're in Day or Week view, then double-click in the white area at the top of the iCal window (just below the date). If you want your all-day event to last multiple days, drag a corner of the event across the days in the main calendar view (or type the end date in the Info drawer).
    To create a multi-day event, make sure you're in Day or Week view, then drag from the start time to the end time of the event (you can drag across multiple days). You can also type the start and end dates and times in the event's Info drawer.
    All-day events are shown across the top of the day in the main calendar view. 


    Tip: You can also make any event an all-day event by selecting the "all-day event" checkbox in the event's Info drawer.;~)

  • How to display timed events across multiple days in month view?

    Simple question I suppose, though I don't know if it has an answer. When I put an event spanning multiple days (say, a week long vacation) in iCal, and check the "All Day" box, it shows a nice, accurate, bar going across those days the event I'm entering covers. However, if I give it specific times for the event (e.g. the times of departure and return for said trip), even if those times are a week apart, the event still appears to only cover the starting date when viewed from the month perspective.
    Is there any way I can make the month calendar show all the days during which the event is "happening" so that at a glance I will realize that an entire week is busy?

    Hi,
    You can do it with keyboard shortcuts.
    Select the event. Press Cmd+X. Press Cmd and right or left arrow (depending if it is forward or back in months) until you are in the correct month. Press Cmd+V to pase on the same day in the new month.
    Best wishes

  • Need To Return Calendar Events For Current Day

    Hello,
    I have a calendar which includes seperate start and end date fields. I need to write a query that will return events for each day in a month, but I need to be mindful of the fact that some events span multiple days. Here is my query so far which isn't working quite right.
    <cfquery name="qTodayEvents" datasource="#getDatasource()#">
    SELECT eventID, title, summary, code, description
    FROM events INNER JOIN eventTypes ON events.typeID=eventTypes.typeID
    WHERE deleted=0
    AND
      startDate >= <cfqueryparam cfsqltype="cf_sql_timestamp" value="#todayStartTime#" />
      AND startDate <= <cfqueryparam cfsqltype="cf_sql_timestamp" value="#todayEndTime#" />
    ) OR (
      endDate >= <cfqueryparam cfsqltype="cf_sql_timestamp" value="#todayStartTime#" />
      AND endDate <= <cfqueryparam cfsqltype="cf_sql_timestamp" value="#todayEndTime#" />
    ) OR (
      startDate <= <cfqueryparam cfsqltype="cf_sql_timestamp" value="#todayStartTime#" />
      AND endDate >= <cfqueryparam cfsqltype="cf_sql_timestamp" value="#todayEndTime#" />
    </cfquery>
    The query is located inside a loop which loops through the days in a given month.
    Does anyone know what I am doing wrong? Any assistance would be appreciated.
    Many thanks,
    Simon

    You have to do nested loops - one for the days of the month, and once for the query.  It probably does not matter which is nested inside of what.  You want your query ordered by EndDate.  Then you can do something like this.
    ControlDate = Date1;
    MaxDate = arraymax(yourquery["enddate"]);
    <cfloop condition = ControlDate lt Date2>
    <cfloop from = "1" to = yourquery.recordcount index = 1>
    <cfif ControlDate >= StartDate and ControlDate <= EndDate>
    your code goes here
    <cfelse>
    break
    </cfif>
    <cfloop>
    add a day to ControlDate
    maybe break if the control date is greater than the max date.
    </cfloop>

  • Can you assign a calendar event to multiple calendars?

    Is there a way to assign a calendar event to multiple calendars?  Example, I have a work trip I would like on my work calendar and my family calendar so it will show on my wife's calendar/phone.  I would like to assign the event to two calendars instead of creating two events, one for each calendar.

    In week or month view, you have to tap and hold down on the date until you see New Event appear. You have to select the month before you can add an event - as gas as I can see anyway. In other words, you cannot tap and hold down on a date in year view and go directly to that day.

  • Events spanning several days

    Hi there,
    When I'm adding an event spanning several days (eg a holiday) the dot on month view only displays on the start date. This is quit unhelpful when quickly looking at whether I'm free on a particular day.
    Am I missing something? Should I be using the repeat event function rather than extending the event date over several days?
    thanks,
    Sam

    Hi there,
    While 'All days' may solve some of those problems, you loose the time information on those events, so it is not usefull for events that go from 3 pm on one day until 5 pm three days later...
    There should be a Preference Option to display events over several days in a Month view as an extended bar. I would desperately need this feature especially for calendars that are only imported via subscription... and there it is not possible to 'edit' events and 'All days' events are often not a choice.
    Also would be great if there would be a Year View ! (Apple are you listening ?)
    If anybody knows of any 'workaround' I would be happy to hear it!
    Cheers,
    Matthias

  • Events in month view that span multiple days

    Hi,
    When I enter an event in iCal with a start time at lets say day 1 and an end time at day 3 it shows up as a multiday event in week view, but when I switch to month view it only shows the event and start time at day 1 and not the event at day 2 or day 3 with the end time.
    Does anybody know how to overcome this?
    THXS Henk

    Same here. Though make it an all day event and it spans all day in month view.
    Looks like an obscure bug (I'd guess most folks who have events that span more than one day just make them all day events. This is worth a bug report to Apple: http://discussions.info.apple.com/webx?linkprocess_@@.3bbae6ea

  • All-day events across multiple days

    Okay, this is a very specifc question about a very specific situaiton, but I am curious to know what is going on. When I have an all-day event scheduled for one day in iCal and I sync it with my phone (Motorola v551) it shows up as a nice little note at the top of my calendar on my phone. When I have an all-day event scheduled across multiple days in iCal it shows up as an actual event across all the hours of the day for as long as I have it scheduled on my phone.
    I have discovered a work-around by taking that one-day, all-day event and having it repeat the number of days of the event, but it just doesn't look right in iCal.

    The calendar on your phone likely doesn't support events that span mutiple days. The solution of a repeating event is the correct answer.

  • Events over multiple days only show on the first day in 'Month' view

    Hi,
    I've noticed that if I create an event that spans over two days (for example 23 May 2008 at 6 PM to 24 May 2008 at 1 PM) are only displayed on the from date in Month view.
    This is unfortunate because if I look at my calendar in Month view, I think I'm free on the 24th, when in fact I'm busy until 1 PM.
    Is there a way to get the Month view to display an entry for the event on both days (other than creating one event running from 23 May 2008 at 6 PM to 11:59 PM and a second from 24 May 2008 at 1:01 AM to 1 PM)?
    Message was edited by: Sam Watterson

    Hi Sam
    I just had the exact same problem the other day. I was asked to make an appointment with someone, I checked my calendar (actually on my iPhone) and I looked available that day so agreed and even entered the event. Turns out I will be working 70 miles away on the event I entered on the day prior. I've had the embarrassment of having to reschedule - makes me look disorganised.
    The month view on iPhone is just the same as iCal - if it's not an 'all day' event it only shows on the first day. This is poor. I recall even outlook and windows mobile calendar manages to display this sensibly. Apple should be fixing this pronto.

  • Nokia E71 Calendar Memos across multiple days

    Hello,
    I recently got a German Nokia E71
    (E71-1 Software Version: 100.07.76 08-06-2008).
    I noticed a strange behavior of the calendar:
    When I create a memo that goes across multiple days (lets say 10 days or 14 days) In Month view the memo is shown correctly for the set time. Also when synchronizing with MS Outlook the memo is shown correctly on the PC.
    But when you open the Memo directly (open day view, select the memo and press the center of the nav-key) then the memo is displayed to last one day longer than originally specified.
    For example I created a memo that should end on the 11th of September (actually it starts in August so maybe spanning the Month barrier may also cause the problem) but it is shown to end on September 12th when I open it. Although it is shown correctly in Month view (shown on 11-Sept, not shown on 12-sept).
    Maybe you have similar experiences?
    Or an explanation for that behavior?
    Thanks and regards,
    Sebastian

    I think I'm experiencing the same thing, Sebastian.
    Phone: E71 bough from 3 in the UK ~20months ago.
    Firmware: 100.07.76 08-06-2008 RM-346 E71-1 (241.02)
    Here's how it happens:
    Step 1)  I create a memo on the calendar with the phone.
    Step 2)  I do an Ovi sync over the air (i.e. there is no use of the PC Suite or Microsoft Outlook going on).
    Step 3)  Some (but not all) of my single day memos are spread over two (2) days.
    How it should look when correct: http://tinyurl.com/ovi-cal-memo-right
    How it actually looks when wrong: http://tinyurl.com/ovi-cal-memo-wrong
    As you can see in the 'wrong' example, instead of memos showing up as lasting for 1 day duration it's apparently "23 hours, 59 minutes" in duration, and ends on 18/07/2011.  And yet it's spread over the 18th and 19th on the month view.  The correct date (as entered and displayed on my phone) is actually the 19th!  The same goes for all those other 'wrong 2-day memos': they should all only be shown on the second of the two day bar that's visible in month view.
    At the moment, for some unknown reason, the problem seems confined to April-October of this year (and subsequent and prior years) and dates are stretched back by a day so they appear on the web version of the Ovi calendar as lasting for two (2) days instead of one (1).  But I think that the problem has been more widespread and across-the-board in the past, and it may have put dates forward by an aditional day (although I can't be sure on that.
    Thankfully, all these memos remain as correct on the phone and seem to be unaffected by the sync.
    When it first happened I made an attempt to correct the Ovi Web Calendar memo sync problem before (thinking it was a once only bug) by going through all the Ovi calendar entries on the web interface and tidying things up that way.  But I'm not prepared to go through all that hassle again.
    It's a real niggle, to say the least.
    What can be done?
    Thanks for any help.

  • Some all-day events span 2 days

    I've noticed a weird anomaly in the syncronized Calendar of my Sony Ericsson W850i.
    *some* of my sync'd Birthdays and All-day events are spanning 2 days, from 23:00 the previous day and finishing 22:59 on the actual day on the event.
    e.g.
    Pat's Birthday on March 23 in iCal appears on the phone calendar as -All Day-
    Zoe's Birthday on March 28 in iCal appears on the phone calendar as
    27thMarch @ 23:00> Zoe's Birthday and finishes 28thMarch @ 22:59
    if I try and ammend the phone entry, iSync spits its dummy and says
    Warning • Changing all-day events on the phone is not allowed. These changes have been ignored: Zoe's Birthday, 03/28/2007
    Whats strange is that its not happening to ALL my all-day events, this example is Birthdays (which is a read-only calendar) but its also doing it with other all-day events in different sync'd calendars (spanning them over 2 days and starting 23:00 finishing @ 22:59)
    iSync v2.3
    Feisar-W850 iSync plug-in
    iCal v2.04
    Address Book v4.04
    Any ideas appreciated
    iMac 20" MacIntel   Mac OS X (10.4.8)   2GHz/512/250/SD/ATI/Airport X/BlueTooth

    This issue is common to all Sony Ericsson phone and is mentioned on the Support page here:
    http://mobile.feisar.com/plugin_support.html#cal
    Basically, its because the clocks change at the end of March, and therefore the Daylight Saving setting is incorrect in your phone for events AFTER the clocks change.

  • Calendar not showing multiple days when using Gmail option

    Since I installed Mountain Lion the calendar when using the Gmail option does not show the bar (highlight ) when using multiple days. The detail transfer to My I pad perfectly and the Apple work & home are also working.  If I click on the first day of an event then it is highlighted.

    Automatic update from Apple, resolved problem.

  • "Fix" for Calendar Events displaying one day early

    I posted a question about this a couple of weeks ago, but can't find my original post. No way to search by user name, so I gave up looking for it after 10 or so pages. Because there are several others who have posted about the same problem, I decided to start a new discussion describing the fix that worked for me, with help from Apple Tech Support.
    Background of my problem: New iPhone 4S, set up as "new phone" -- calendar events synced via MobileMe without any problems. Or so I thought. Discovered a few days later that any "All Day" event was shown on the day prior to the actual event -- US Holidays and Birthdays in particular.  Events with specific start/end times were displaying on the correct day.
    Checked these forums and was unable to find a solution, so I made an appointment for the following week with Tech Support to have someone call me. Fred first had me try resetting the phone. Didn't fix it.
    Note: Somewhere in our troubleshooting, he had me turn off the Birthday and US Holiday calendars on both the phone and iCal on my computer, then turn them back on and do a sync. This did not correct the event dates. If I remember correctly (I wasn't taking notes), this was before changing any settings in iTunes and didn't fix the problem. However... it *might* have played a part in the final fix, so if the following steps don't fix it for you, try adding in the off/on for the calendars before changing the iTunes sync settings.
    What finally worked :
    Changing a setting in iTunes to overwrite the Calendar on my iPhone and doing a Sync (bypassing MobileMe entirely). Here's how to do it.
    In iTunes, go to the "Info" tab and scroll down to the Advanced section. There are 5 checkboxes there and selecting one or more will overwrite the corresponding items on the iPhone during the next sync only. He had me check Calendar, then perform a Sync.
    That worked!  For US Holidays, but most of the birthdays were still one day off, except ones I'd entered manually in iCal. All of the misplaced birthdays are published by dates I've entered for contacts in Address Book on my Mac.
    I went back to iTunes and checked Birthdays in the Advanced area and performed another sync. That overwrote the Birthday calendar on the phone and now all of my Birthdays and US Holidays are showing on the correct days.
    Would have been quicker if I had checked Birthdays at the same time as US Holidays, so when you follow the steps, check both Birthdays and Holidays to save yourself some time.
    Hope this helps all of you who are having the same problem I was.

    All of my dates are out by one day in ical (and address book). I can change them manually (best advice I could get from Apple), but it keeps happening to me. Any help appreciated, I have 10.8.6; macbook pro, iphone 4s and am frustrated. This seems to be a common problem but I can't find a fix. 
    In the post above advice is to go to itunes, "info tab", Advanced...but I don't see an "info tab" -
    Thanks for any help!

  • Display of events spanning several days

    Hello,
    When I create an event (all day) in Outlook spanning several days, after syncing the iPhone shows the entry on every single day.
    When I do the same with an appointment which is not "all day" (let's say Friday 17:00 - Sunday 15:00) the iPhone only displays the moment of the start. Is that a bug, desired behavior? Any chance to configure it so that I see the starting point plus an entry for each day that is involved?
    TIA!!

    I suspect it's a glitch. When I create an event in Outlook as you suggest (today at 1p to Saturday at 6p, for example), I see it on the phone as spanning that whole time, i.e. the event fills part of today, all of tomorrow, and part of Saturday. However, I'm not syncing via iTunes but over-the-air with Exchange.
    If you can reproduce this, definitely let Apple know.
    You can submit feedback to Apple: http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html.

  • Calendar Events design on 'Day' view

    Hi,
    I noticed a change in my iPhone calendar.
    I remember that the colors and design of events under the "Day" view were different in lower versions of iPhone (I'm using 4.1). The colors used to be more vivid and the design of an event was 3D like. Also the font of the event it self was White.
    Now, in 4.1 the colors in calendars are not vivid and the design is flat.
    Have any of you guys noticed it?
    Thanks,
    Lior.

    I have pretty much the same issue except the bolded part.
    {quote:title=EagleOwl wrote:}However, when I scroll backwards in the day view from the 2nd November, the event in the 1st November is now visible *and the event on the 31st October, which was visible while scrolling forward, is lost.*{quote}
    And yeah, there are other dates where the events will behave like the ones on November 1st.
    For example: February 1st and March 1st 2010... August 1st 2011... October 1st 2012, and so on...
    I noticed that they all have something in common: they don't have any "grey" dates at the beginning of the month (in "Month" view)...
