Calendar question on the 9530...

Hello everyone. So this thread might be better in the newbie section, but since the storm is so different than the other BB's I figured here is a good place to start. I've had my storm since April 2009 and am just starting to use the calendar. I use google sync and have had good luck putting appointments (my work schedule) in on my google calendar then syncing it to have the appointments on my BB storm.
My problem is with understanding how the native calendar on the storm works. I looked through the FAQ, but not much on the calendar.
I am interested in learning a little more about the different calendars that I can chose from. Right now I have 3 (Facebook, [email protected], and [email protected]) They each have a color associated with them (green, blue, and orange respectively).
I have my work schedule under one calendar (becuase this is how goggle sync works), however becuase I have 2 jobs, I wanted to have a different color for the busy time be different between the two jobs so I have another indicator of where I am supose to be that day (Am I flipping burgers at MacDonalds or at Burger King).
Can I create different calendars on my BB to put the two jobs on or is it easier to just keep them on the same one and differentiate them by changing their color?
Is there a way to find the next appointment quickely? I looked at the agenda view, but it just lists the morning alarm each day.
I use my storm to wake me up in the morning with the alarm, but I don't want this displayed on the calendar. Is there a way to set this so it does not show up?
Is there a calendar app that you think is better than the native app?
Thanks for any help you can give me.
Steve

hello,
about the alarm thing, you can use the Alarm application instead of creating a calendar event.
you can also look at third party alarm/reminder programs.

My question concerns the ipad monthly calendar view.

My question concerns the ipad monthly calendar view. An all day event spans two days in the monthly calendar view. Is this a bug?

The entry is correct in day and week view. In the month view, the event carries to the next day indicating it ends at 12:00am.

A question about the calendar JPC in 9i demo

In my application, I use the calendar JPC from the 9i Demo. After click the button and select a date, the calendar widget disappeared and the date field now has the new date. The question is, now the keyboard seams disabled until I click somewhere using mouse.
Do I have to click the mouse after using the calnedar JPC to enable the keyboard?
Stephen

Stephen,
It seems that after closing the calendar the focus is not within the Forms application but still on the Java Bean. Nit sure how to solve this, but you could try and set a trigger on the text field that the date is returned to.

Pocketmac and the 9530 Blackberry Storm

I need to sync my new blackberry to my new Mac computer. I downloaded the latest Pocketmac but it will not sync my Blackberry and Mac. I have uninstalled and reinstalled. The 9530 is fairly new. Does anyone know if the Pocketmac is not able to sync the phone because it is so new??? Any help is appreciated!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hello to All! I used the BB Storm for a month then switched to the Curve, and unfortunately Pocketmac just does not work! Traveled from You tube to Crackberry and now blackberry support groups and communities... same questions, same problems and no solution. (Aaaargh!) So far the only way for me to sync calendars is thru google calendar. (Contacts/Address books works just fine syncing w pocketmac except calendars which i need of course..) - I've heard and seen threads suggesting Missing Sync...I might just do that or by some miracle you guys make it work... pleezzz let me know. For now, it's a Friday night, going out with my girl friends beer on my left and my BB on my right hand! hehehe! Cheers to all!

Basic Questions on the Syncing Process

I have a couple of questions about the syncing process.
First - does the syncing take place through MobileMe and the so called “cloud” or does it take place through the physical connection of the Touch to the iMac via the USB cable? When I connect the Touch to the iMac, I have
sync Address Book contacts
and
sync iCal calendars checked in iTunes
and there’s a little message in the same iTunes window under Bookmarks which tells me that the bookmarks are being synced over the air via MobileMe. So is the following assumption correct on my part that
Address Book
iCal
are being synced via the physical USB connection while the Bookmarks are being synced over the WiFi connection?
And finally, if I have contacts - let’s call them 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 on the Touch and only 1, 2, 3 on the iMac
what happens with the syncing process? Do the contacts on the Touch get reduced to 1, 2, 3 or do those on the iMac expand to 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 ? The question I guess is what syncs to what? Do changes on the iMac transfer over to the Touch during syncing or does it work the other way too?
Thanks
John
Thanks
John

1) If you have it to sync via Mobileme, then it sync via Mobileme. If you do not, then it does not.
2) It syncs both ways.

Day View in calendar Component showing the next at times not everytime!

Day View in calendar Component showing the next at times not everytime! My question is when we go to Day view which day does it show? is it Server day where the application reside or the machine time zone day ?

I think you want to know, days & time picked by which machine, locally or from server? It does take from server where the application is running.

In the calendar side bar, the groups titled "On my Mac" and "iCloud" will not merge?

I recently updated my Macbook to Mavericks and my phone is already updated to IOS7.
In iCal, there is a side bar, and there are 3 groups...
"On my Mac"
"iCloud"
"US Holidays"
Since all my main events are in the group "On my Mac" they do not sync with my phone because they are not in icloud.
I need to find a way to merge the groups "On my Mac" and "iCloud" in order for my events to sync with my phone.
Thanks

Hey sarahgrace9,
Thanks for the question. The following article may help in answering your question:

Calendar icon on the doc

How can the calendar icon on the dock show the current date? I need to always open the calendar to "refresh" the dock icon to the current date. Pls help....poor non-tech-non-mac person. Thanks.

You can't. I know it seems a silly omission but it's true. I asked the same question at a Procare lesson (the one-on-one training I purchased with MacBook.) You have to click on it to show correct date.

Calendar question re: times

I am not sure this is the right board for this question, but I could not find one that was appropriate. I would like to know how to make the items I list on the palm desktop calendar be in order by time of day, but they are always haphazard.
Will appreciate any help.
Thanks! Lisa
Post relates to: Palm m500

I use a Palm T3 v 4.1.4 of the desktop version -- which I believe is the latest version.
I have the same issue on the monthly calendar view on the desktop -- the times display out of sync. I believe that they appear in the order in which they were entered. So when I enter an evening appointment at say 9 pm, it's the first on the list in the monthly calendar view. If I then schedule a breakfast meeting, it appears next on the list and so on. It doesn't appear to have anything to do with the categories.
However when I added a test user and created three test events (out of time sych) for the same day, the monthly view displayed them properly. Hmmmm. I hesitate to create a new "me" just to correct this flaw. What on earth could it be?

Incredible Calendar Question-Automatically puts in Birthdates/Contacts

Hello, I came from a Blackberry Storm 9530. Within a Blackberry if I entered a Birthday or an Anniversary it would automatically be logged into my Calendar; unless I'm mistaken I cannot find a way to do this with the Incredible; am I correct? Sure I can go in and add events for "everyone" but that takes too long LOL. So if the default Calendar doesnt work; is there a android calendar app that does?
Again if I have dates incorporated to my cell phone contacts; I'm trying to find a way to sync or import the dates from contacts to "automatically" add them to my Calendar; thanks

Sorry for the long delay. Yes I have done extensive searches for Calendar applications and could not find any that did this either. So I basically took the long 20min + and added re occuring events, birthdays, anniversaries at google.com and under Calendar. I was so trying to avoid it but couldnt. Thank you anyways though. Once I put all events in, I did find a decent Calendar Widget (CalWidget) that suited my needs

Using the calendar option with the iPod

Hey I don't know if this question was asked, but I seem to have this weird problem with my iPod... When I look at my calendars, every event is an hour late... In my outlook everything is fine, it's just on the iPod. I'm on windows XP and I have Outlook 2002, which means I'm still on iTunes 6.0.5.20 (the new one only worked with Outlook 2003). I'm sure the problem must be very simple, but I can't seem to find it!

... i'll warn you in advance that i'm no expert on using contacts and calendars. but is the ipod still set to daylight savings time? (or not set, whichever applies in your case?)
to check, in your Main Menu go "Settings > Date & Time > Set Time Zone". does the current setting have a DST next to it?

Hi All, I have question about the iMac operating system. I have the last updated. The problem when I manage the place of the folder windows they are all mixing up. I mean they not on the place where I left them. how to set they stay on the same place. Tks

Hi All, I have question about the iMac operating system. I have the last updated. The problem when I manage the place of the folder windows they are all mixing up. I mean they not on the place where I left them. how to set they stay on the same place? I know there are different possibilities to set.
I tried but it not helped for me. What I can do? How and where can set this they stay on their place?
Thanks.

Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In Library Manager it's the FIle -> Rebuild command)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

Questions about the Zen TO

i am planning to buy the zen touch because its cheap and a good value, but however, the lack of accessories scares me a little. Will creative design a case especially for it, because its really not comfortable taking it out and putting it back in with the included case, creative needs to make a case that allows users to use the touch without taking it out. I heard creative is going to release a brand new firmware for the touch, i really think the folks at creative need to bring back the eax feature, the calendar just like the old zen xtra.
Here are my questions though,
If i buy the fm wired remote for the touch, will that activate the eax function,
also is there any docks availible for the zen touch, i read somewhere that the belkin dock for dell dj is compatible with the touch, i just want to confirm with the creative staff that this is compatible so it doesnt destroy my touch when i buy it.
Thanks for any replies,
Sergey

Spetznaz24,
The FM Wired Remote will not activate EAX on the Zen Touch. This has to be incorporated directly into the player and it is not at this time. I do not have any information on new cases however I will pass your case suggestion on. I also cannot guarantee anything about 3rd party adaptors made for other products.

A question about the option Reset All Settings

Hello, I have a question about the reset all settings function in the IPad. I need to keep all of the installed applications on the device yet I need to remove any log in information and contacts. Is this the correct option or would the Erase All Content and Settings be what I want?

If you read the OP's request, they "need to keep all of the installed applications on the device". Selecting "Erase All Content and Settings" will do just that, erase everything.
Faroff, you can remove accounts in Settings/ Mail, Contacts, Calendar ... that would remove contacts only if the contacts were synced to such an account. If contacts were synced from iTunes, you'd have to un-sync them from iTunes by changing the sync settings. If the contacts were just manually entered and not synced with anything, you have to delete them one by one. However, iOS will remember past usage of a contact, so even if you remove them they may be recalled by you initiating an email or iMessage to something close to what used to be in the Contacts app. The only way to clear that I think is to do a full erase of the iPad.
As for log-in information, go to Settings/ Safari/ Passwords & Autofill, where you can erase passwords and saved credit card info. You can also clear cookies and data in this menu.
You might be better off doing a full erase of the iPad. Why do you not want to remove the apps? You can re-sync them from iTunes or re-download them if necessary. Or did you inherit this device from someone else and you're wanting to keep their apps installed but remove their private information?

Calendar question(s)

APEX 3.01, RDBMS 10GR2
I am new to the APEX tool. Two calendar questions, please.
(1) I have a requirement that the values in the calendar object ("year" drop box) need to go back to 1800. Currently, when selecting on the calendar object, the earliest year available is 1920. Any ideas on how to expand the range of "year" dates to allow the user to select as far back as 1800?
(2) My requirement calls for limiting users to selecting the calendar object for populating the date field. Currently, while users have the calendar available to populate a date field, they are not forced to use it - ie. they could fill in the date field with a valid date and not use the calendar. Is there a way to limit user input of date fields to use the calendar object only?
Thanks in advance,
Barry D.

Chrissy,
Thanks for the suggestion on how to force the user to use the calendar instead of entering data directly into the date field box. While setting the HTLM Form Element Attribute to "disabled" works for entering a new date [user cannot input directly into field, must use calendar], however, when I save my record, the date field is not saved to the database. All other elements are saved to the database. The saving of all data elements including the date, was working prior to this change. When I removed the suggested element attribute from my field and save a new record, all data is saved.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance.
Barry D.
