Calendar on Palm TX - duplicating events

I often want to duplicate events on my TX (as opposed to creating repeating events). All I seem to be able to do is to copy and paste the text of an event, but I still have to put in the times of the event once it's been duplicated. I didn't have to do this on Window Mobile. Is there any way round this problem?

Hello!
The Calendar app does not have an option to duplicate event due to the option of making reocurring events. So the only option for the practice you do is copy the text and then paste it into a new event. You could probably check out a 3rd-party application called DateBook6 for this desired feature.

Duplicated events on iCal, and even more on iPod calendar

I am using the latest version of Mac OS X Lion and an iPod Touch 2G with the latest compatible iOS update (4.2.1)
I gave iCloud a try, but after syncing with my iPod, I wouldn't be able to create or edit events in my iCloud calendars (which were previously the "On My Mac" Calendars)
I decided to stop syncing iCal with iCloud so that I would be using "On My Mac" calendars that could be modified on my iPod.
I exported each calendar. Stopped syncing with iCloud (which deletes those calendars from my mac) and then imported them within new calendars that were named and organized as I previously had.
However, I started seeing duplicate or multiple event entries on my Mac and on the iPod Touch.
I tried to delete the duplicates from the Mac, and some of them delete, some don't.
It is weird because I have duplicates of the Address Book Birthday calendar too, which shouldn't have duplicated events that cannot be deleted.
Another thing that happens is that in iCal there are events that appear correctly, just one time. But checking on my iPod, I see the same event 7 times!
Please, somebody help and guide me. I am a heavy user of the calendar on both devices and need a fix soon.
Thanks!

I have the exact same problem.
Can't figure it out.
It is very annoying and time consuming deleting the duplicate items.

My calendar keeps duplicating events.

My calendar keeps duplicating events. I noticed it happened after I turned the iCloud calendar back on. It ask me to merge events. Help anyone?

You get duplicates, one from iCloud and another when you sync with your computer, IF iTunes is set to sync from the computer to the iPhone. Check your device settings (general tab, IIRC) in iTunes.

Duplicated events on iCal after moving to iCloud

Hi, i just updated mi iphone 4 to iOS5, then updated iTunes, then updated OSX Lion to 10.7.2, then moved to icloud...
Everything seems to be ok, but there's a problem: my events duplicated on iCal in my macbookpro...
Every input has cloned itself!
But, when checking on icloud and on my iphone, no duplicates!
So... what should i do?, 'cause if i delete a duplicated event from iCal in my computer, leaving only one, the event erases at all in iCloud and in my iPhone...
Weird.
Any suggestions?
I appreciate your time, thank you!

Hi Jorge. I just went through this entire process. I was able to rid myself of duplicates, however, I am still trying to figure out how to match a hard copy to my Mac without creating duplicates.
- Make sure you have your events on the Mac
- Go to iCloud on phone and turn off iCloud on everything (for now). It will tell you it will delete everything off iCloud (this is fine if you have everything you need on your Mac).
- Go into iTunes on Mac and "turn of Sync with this iPhone over Wi-fi" & check "back up to this computer"
-Go to info tab in iTunes on Mac. Check sync "contacts" & sync "calendars"
- While you are in the info tab also check "calendars" & "contacts" in the Replace Information on This iPhone section under Advanced.
- Synch
- If everything matches up properly go back to iPhone and turn iCloud back on for what you want
- Go to iCal on Mac and in the top left hand corner there is a "calendar" button that when you click it, it shows calendars for "On my Mac" and "iCloud".
- You can delete the "On my Mac" calendars to rid yourself of the duplicates.
***This is how I did it. You may be able to just delete the "On my Mac" calendars but I am not sure if that will take them off of iCloud and your iPhone. You can give it a try first as it may be less time consuming.
So, my issue is still trying to figure out how to keep matching calendars as a backup on Mac without the duplicates. Any takers?

ICal randomly duplicating events

iCal randomly duplicated events (sometimes twice, other 3 times) after the last sync of my iPhone. I've had, & continue to have this problem with repeating holidays which were transfered from my Palm but now I've got countless duplicate "normal" events over at least the last 6 months. In the past iCal has duped events & simultaneously change the dupe's time slightly but this time they are direct copies. I just finished correcting them manually. For future problems is there any way to automatically remove duplicates? More importantly, is there anything I can do to prevent this from happening?

Hi John,
Thanks for the information, sorry for the delay in my response -went out of town for a few days. iCal Dupe Deleter sounds seems to be just what the doctor ordered to remedy this situation next time it occurs.
As to my second question, do you, or anyone out there know why this happens or how to avoid it in the future?

Duplicated events

My manager emailed me our work schedule and since we have tons of duplicated events, it is being rejected by icloud. How do I allow the duplicates to stay?

Open the calendar application on your Mac and create a new iCloud calendar with an appropriate name (such as Work Schedule) by going to Calendar>New Calendar>iCloud. Then import the .ics file to the new calendar by going to File>Import>Import, navigate to your .ics file. When prompted to choose where to import it. click the drop-down menu and select the new iCloud calendar you just created and Import. Wait until the rotating wheel at the top of the left sidebar disappears and you new calendar should appear in iCloud.
You shouldn't encounter any duplicate event errors because you are importing it into a separate calendar.

In ical I just added new calendars to a pre-existing calendar group, I can make events with these calendars, but not reminders, any suggestions?

Hi,
Lion has changed the way reminders (todos as was) work. They now seem to need to be in a seperate calendar.
In iCal open the File menu and select New Reminder List... and select where to put it.
Best wishes

How can I move an event in my calendar to my "completed" calendar without changing all the events in the series?

How can I move an event in my calendar to my "completed" calendar without changing all the events in the series?
As Apple has yet to upgrade iCalendar so I can check off my events as I complete them (no, I do not want to use a task list/reminder list), I want to be able to move my events to my "completed" events calendar as I complete them. The issue is that most of my events are repeating events, and it changes the entire series. How do I change only the event I clicked on using my iPhone?
Thanks

If you change anything in a repeating calendar entry it will give you the option of disconnecting it from the series. So may any random change, choose to not change the series.

How do I add a birthday to my calendar without it being an event ?

How do I add a birthday to my calendar without it being an event ?

Add them as a Contact. They don't have to have a phone number. Just create a Contact with their name and relevant information.
Your Contacts app is used for more than just phone numbers. Email addresses, physical addresses, date of birth, etc. Use the 'Add Field' option to see all the possibilities.

In Calendar I cannot delete an event, every time I try to it just freezes it and says my storage is almost full, what can I do to fix this?

A while back a friend added an event that repeats every day, but it also lasts a year. This has completely thrown off my calendar. I cannot add events or delete them. Unfortunately I have my calendar backed up to iCloud. So, I decided to try and turn the calendar backup off. Does not work, I get a loading symbol for like 10 minutes and then it is still turned on. I have no idea how to fix this and I would rather not have to completely resore my phone. Help!!!

ok, for example for my photos it say 1.9gb on the phone (before it was like 4 or more) but in backup still 4. should i just turn off camera roll in backup options?

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

What you've outlined in this part of the post is all that icloud stores for you outside of the backup. If you want to restore from the icloud backup you will then have for all practical purposes a carbon restoration back to your device if you restore from the icloud backup.

Syncing your device with itunes will then enable you to remove whatever photos you wish to remove from your device deleting them with the computer and not the iphone.

How to un-sync a calendar and NOT delete ANY events? Please help!

Hi,
I seem to be the only one with this problem. I search all over and can't find information for what I want to do, everyone wants to do the opposite.
So basically I had a job and an iphone. I used my calendar at work for personal events and so forth. I synced the calendar on my work's exchange server to my iphone. Then I lost my job. My password no longer works, so sync fails and it keeps asking for my password and draining my battery. I try to cancel sync, and the iphone threatens to delete all my events. I don't want to delete my events, i just don't want it to keep trying to connect to my old job. How can I keep all my calendar events and not get nagged every 10 seconds to enter a password?
I do not have outlook on my home computer either.
Thanks!

OK, so i bit the bullet and canceled my sync to my calendar at my old work.
My old calendar events are now gone. All of them. The stuff added through my outlook at my old work is gone. The personal stuff added on my iPhone directly is gone. The stuff added on my phone after it stopped syncing with my old work is gone. My calendar is COMPLETELY EMPTY now.
Can someone explain this to me?
