Calendar has marked every day in monthly view

Hello,
I'm using my (German) 3G with Exchange Active Sync. It works fine except for one problem. The monthly calendar marks a event for every day with the small rectangle. This makes it of course difficult, to identify a day where a event exist.
Any idea, how to solve this?
Regards

Dot is shown every day in month view, even with no events

Hi All,
With the latest iTunes update, my outlook calendar sync finally works, however, it has now decided to put a dot on every day in the month view, even on days I have no events. Outlook is still fine, so it does not appear that there is a corrupt event or anything.
Has anyone else seen this and found a fix?
Thanks in advance

Here is the fix that worked for me. I hope it helps you out.
Busy dots on every day of the month?
The iPhone calendar month view shows a dot on every day you have an event scheduled. This allows you to know, at a glance, any "free" days you have with no appointment scheduled. There seems to be a bug with some type of all-day recurring events in Outlook that sync over improperly to the iPhone. This causes the iPhone to become "confused", and show the "busy dot" on every day of the month, whether the day has an event in it or not.
In order to correct this problem, you will need to find the all-day recurring event or events (could be more than one) that are causing this. Without a search function, it takes a little bit of detective work, but it can be done.
1. Browse backwards on your calendar until you find the first day of the month with no "busy dot" in it. This will help you identify when the problem started.
2. Next, find the first instance of the problem - that is, find the first empty day that shows a "busy dot".
3. Once you find that empty day, look at the days before to find an all-day recurring event (other types of events may cause this bug, but I only experienced it with all-day recurring events, such as birthdays, anniversaries, etc.)
4. Edit the event - the start and end dates of the event should be, by definition, the same day. The bug apparently causes the event to sync over with the end date a day before the start date. This creates a situation that the iPhone calendar cannot handle properly, causing the dots to appear on every day from that point on forward. Fix the end date to be the same as the start date.
5. This should fix the problem, at least until the next all-day recurring event. In my case, I had seven events I had to fix. Every time I fixed one, the empty days on the calendar would no longer show a "busy dot", but as I browsed forward, the problem appeared again. I noticed it appeared right after one of these faulty all-day recurring events. When I fixed the event, the days from that day on forward would correct themselves until the next faulty all-day recurring event. Once all seven all-day recurring events were fixed, the "busy dot" no longer appeared on any empty days.

Calendar in List view different from Day and Month view

When I look at my Calendar in 'List' view all of the Birthdays and Events are in the wrong date but in 'Day' and 'Month' view they are correct.
Has anybody found a fix for this yet? I have looked at similar discussions but they are all a couple of years old and none seem to have found the solution

It looks like I have found a solution - it is to do with the birthday dates - if you delete the year of any pre-1932 birthdays it solves the problem!

TZ of Day/Week/Month View is US/Pacific - Info Box & System TZ US/Eastern

Just noticed this - don't think its been happening for long - probably a couple of days at the worst.
When I create a New Event, the Time Zone is automatically incorrectly set to US/Pacific. I change it to Eastern (via Info Box) and it displays in the Info Box as Eastern, but the Daily/Weekly/Monthly view seems to remain at US/Pacific. (System prefs set to Eastern TZ).
In addition ALL my events display in Day/Week/Month view as US/Pacific TZ, even tho Info Box TZ (and system TZ) is US/Eastern.
For Example: Info box says event starts at 5PM goes to 9PM, Time Zone is US/Eastern. Calendar Display in Day, Week or Month shows event from 2PM to 6PM.
This has affected every one of my events.
I am running OSX 10.4.9,build 8P135 iCal Version 2.0.5 (1069)
iCal Support for Time Zones turned On.
Date/Time System Preferences appear to be OK
System Time (measured by Menu Clock and verified by save time on a file) is OK - (Am writing this at about 2:40PM EST, Sunday 6/3/2007.

Mini - 1.42 Mac OS X (10.4.9) 1Gig (self installed)

It was US/Pacific -
I just changed it to US/Eastern and everything seems to work correctly now. I never even noticed that setting before - I guess I may have reset it by accident?
I see you're from Bristol, UK. A friend told me a few hours ago that he has to make a business trip there sometime this summer and was thinking about bringing his family (from Boston, USA). We were not too clear on English geography tho - is Bristol a decent family vacation destination?

Highlighting multiple days in Month View?

Hello everyone & Happy Friday All !!!
I'm new to this forum, and VERY new to using ical -
Here's my question:
In my old method of using a calendar to do my schedule on my old PC -
I'd make a spreadsheet in MS Excel that would show me monthly views that I could highlight days,
weeks or entire months..... It's crude in comparison to ical, yet it IS effective for my needs......
I am used to highlighting either a single day or a string of days in my "month" view,
so... for example - let's say that Monday thru Thursday of next week I am going to be "out of the office in London - UK" -
I would simply highlight the four days of next week - and instead of leaving those cells "white"
like every other day in the month - I'd change those four cell's colored "fill" option from white to
bright yellow - (or any other color that signifies a specific action or function - like "green" for vacation days, or "blue" for a sick day or surgery, etc....
This way - that at a glance (literally) - I can tell that I'm "out of the office" on those days next week that are colored other than "white"..... NOTE: the ENTIRE CELL - Not Just the Day Title is colored......
(I wish I could insert a visual example of what I am trying to describe here...)
Is there a way of doing this same kind of function in ical - so that I can have an "at a glance" or
"heads up display" that I can see quickly and know I'm committed on those days next week - or
any week or group of days for that matter?
This would help me tremendously of there is a way of doing this...... Otherwise - I'll be STUCK
in the 90's using my improvised Excel Spreadsheet Calendar.....
Thanks in advance for your help
kevin

Welcome to the discussions, azstoneconsulting.
In iCal colours are tied to specific calendars, so make a vacation calendar and a sick calendar (you forecast your sickness? Cool) and an out of office calendar and set the colours to whatever colour suits. Then when you are going to be in London select the out of office calendar and set it to last the four days. It will show as a coloured bar across those days in month view.

Changing colors for days in month view

My work schedule fluctuates so that I don't work the same days every week during a month. Is there a way I can change the color of some of the days in month view so that I can quickly see my work days in ical?

Changing the default event time to all-day in Month View?

I updated to Mavericks today, and when I went to add an event to my Calendar, I discovered that all-day was not the default time. In Mountain Lion, when going to add an event in Month View, it was automatically set to all-day, which is perfect because all of my events are all-day events. Now, it's being set to 9:00 to 10:00, and I have to check the box to make it all-day. I know that this isn't much work, but when I'm adding dozens of events it starts to get a little annoying.
Calendar 7.0, OS X 10.9 (Mavericks).
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

npatelaz,
I don't think that it is possible, even using Terminal. If you want to change your workflow, "all day" events can easily be created in the Day/Week view, but as you stated the Month view poses a problem.
Calendar Help says:
To make:
An event that lasts all day:
In Day or Week view, double-click in the “All-day” section at the top of the calendar.
An existing event last all day:
In Day, Week, or Month view, double-click the event, click the date, then select “All-day.”
A multiday event:
In Week view, drag from the start time to the end time. You can drag across multiple days.In Day or Month view, create an event. Then, enter the start and end dates and times.
An all-day event into a multiday event:
In Week view, drag the all-day event across multiple days.

ICalendar: How do I know what day, in month view, I am working on?

The calendar in Mavericks is so frustrating compared to SL. How do I know what day, in month view, I am working on? There is no highlight or box or anything. Am I missing something? Also I suppose its not possible to just see 1 month anymore like it use to be instead of seeing 6 weeks. Thanks. Sure wish Apple would let us keep our Macs the way WE like it with a classic setting everytime they add something that they think is better. Like those awesome grey icons all over the place instead of color.

Calendar will not display events in month view?

A few days ago my calendar stopped displaying events in the Month view (where I originally entered them). I can see them in the List view, although I cannot edit them. They are also not visible in the Day view.
Moreover at the top of the screen where there would normally be a "+" button to add events and a "calendar" button to view different calendars there is nothing. Only a heading that says "All Calendars" - however I can't find anywhere in settings to view different calendars if I want. Any ideas?

Well....
If you find all the .ics files in ~/Library/Calendars/Events
And then copy them out of ~/Library
You can import them back into Calendar .... One .... At ..... A ..... Time ......
Why, Oh Why, did I ever think I wanted to try iCloud?

How to scroll within a day in month view?

Busycal can scroll within a day in month view (eg. too many events in a day that requires you to open the day view to see all the events). Can this be done in iCal?

I found some javascript code that solves this problem. Credit
for the code has to go to the person who wrote the excellent
article at the following link:
http://www.switchonthecode.com/tutorials/javascript-tutorial-the-scroll-wheel
If you read this article the code below should make sense.
From this article i used the hookEvent and cancelEvent
functions. In my particular case I embed the SWF object inside a
JSP page using some javascript code. After the SWF is loaded i
added the following line of code:
hookEvent('my_swf_id', 'mousewheel', handleMouseWheel);
where handleMouseWheel is defined as follows:
function handleMouseWheel(e)
if (document.getElementById("my_swf_id"))
document.getElementById("my_swf_id").focus();
return cancelEvent(e); // This is the key to the solution...
When the mouse is over the datagrid in the SWF i can use the
mouse wheel to scroll its contents without the main browser window
scrolling at the same time.
Thanks to all who took time to post their ideas, it was
appreciated.

Calendar List different than Day or Month

I have an IPhone 4 with IOS 5.1.1. Recently when I go to my Calendar the appointments shown in the List view are one day behind the appointments shown on the Day or Month view (i.e. 2:00 pm appointment shown correctly in Day and Month for Monday shows up incorrectly as a Tuesday appointment). I have restarted my phone hoping to this would reset and correct the problem but problem still exists. Can anyone help?

Multiday event should span days in month view

Hi all,
I have an event that spans multiple days (begin is Dec 3 @ 12 AM, end is Dec 6 @ 12 AM), but it only appears in one day on iCal's month view. In week view, the event spans all three days.
How can I ensure that an event that spans days +actually visually+ spans the days in month view?
Thanks,
Matthew

Is there not any other way. I to have events that are not actually whole day events but that are spanning mulitple days.

Color in days in month view?

Hi,
Is there any way to color in specific days in month view in iCal. Like, for example, instead of appearing in their default white, I would like Monday's and Wednesday's to appear in Green. Is there a way to do this?
Thanks

Lisa,
Here are some of the iCal event creation rules which may help you:
Enter a name, date, and time duration for the event, and then press Return.
For example, you can enter “Super Bowl Party Feb 6,” “Movie with Rebecca on Friday at 7pm,” “Soccer Game on Saturday from 11am-1pm,” or “Breakfast with Jon,” and then press Return.
If you don’t enter a time duration for the event, iCal sets the event’s duration to 1 hour.
If you don’t enter any time information for the event, iCal makes the event an all-day event.
If you enter “breakfast” or “morning,” iCal sets the event to start at 9 a.m.
If you enter “lunch “ or “noon,” iCal sets the event to start at 12 p.m.
If you enter “dinner” or “night,” iCal sets the event to start at 8 p.m.

I can't jump to a day from month view in iOS 7 calendar

When I tap a date in month view of calendar it does not jump to the day view

This problem drives me crazy too. Specifically when i want to make an appointment quickly. Why does apple not take it into account? There are many posts about this issue.

ICal has stopped highlighting the current day in month view. Is there some way to reinstate this?

It still highlights the day in day and week views. Not sure when this behavior began, but it may have been after installing ColorMunki software. Thanks for any suggestions.

svjesser,
This often sought after feature is not available in the iCal interface.
