Can a calendar's event location be used to link to a map?

I was wondering if there was a way to use the location field in a calendar event to input an address and then be able to click on that address and open up google maps on the iphone to get directions?

Can you preview an event in Ical, using Lion, by moving your mouse over the event?

I have been trying to fougure out to problems in Ical, using Lion. There does not seem to be anyway to preview an event accept by double clicing the event. I also do not understand why there is not a drop down menu to choose the month of a new event or when you change an event. I hope there is a way to change to a drop menu for the month, it is such a waste time to have to type the date in every time. Any suggestions?

The only problem is, that I can't move my mouse to the location I want. I heard you could use the Robot class for this, but it didn't work out as I wanted -I guess I screwed the code up-. So I'd like to know how I'm able to move my mouse, left click and right click, all at custom locations, given using JOptionPane. Could someone please write an easy example of all those things?Well, Robot is meant to generate mouse moves, mouse clicks, and key types, but consider this:
- if you need this to implement a feature of an application, I find this suspicious (except if you are developing a tutorial feature such as "Help/Show me how to...").
- if you need this to test an application, you'd better use a higher-level API, such as jfcUnit or Fest-Swing (tons of other exist), that enables you to simulate actions (and check results!) in higher-level terms, such as "click on this button" and "check this label is green" instead of "click at that position x,y", and "peek the pixel color").
Good luck,

How Can I change my country location without using my creditcard? I Cant Use my creditcard but I need it to change my country location, Is there any other way?

I Moved to Venezuela From Canada 4 Month ago. I had some apps on my iphone that I had to pay with my creditcard to download, I used to have the App: Wahtsapp it cost 0.99$ I bought it when I was i Canada and I coould use my creditcard, But I deleted "Whatsapp" but I was not a proble, because I had a security copy on my computer, But I needed to Update the apps and I couldnot do it, because I had to put my payment imformation, But I actually i have some troubles with my creditcard, so i cant use it.
is there any other way to change my country without putting my payment information, that way I can update my apps without having to put my payment information.

You must have a valid form of payment for the app store in the country you are using. Most app stores are separate legal entities to comply with local laws. It is possible to have an account without a credit card, however; see: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534

How can you keep the file name when using "Download Linked File As..."?

I'm a longtime PC user finally making the transition to Mac. Some of the tasks that seemed so simple in Windows have really stumped me! One of the tasks I do frequently is download files into specific folders. After much looking, I finally found the "Download Linked File As..." option if I right-click on the download link. The problem is, when I choose this option, I lose the file name. I get a window in which I can choose the desired folder, but the filename is always "0". If I want to keep the filename (and I usually do), I have to type it in manually. Is there anyway around this?

You can post a screen shot by clicking on the liitle Camera icon above your reply. :)
Just checked on 10.7.4+, still the same, something is borked about your install, to see if we need to re-install...
To find out if it's system wide or user specific, try this...
Open System Preferences>Accounts, unlock the lock, click on the little plus icon, make a new admin account, log out & into the new account.
Does it work in the new account?

Problem with register event callback in use of instrument control

now, i use the register event callback to register a value change of a boolean control on the front panel, and wire the cluster's ref of the instrument control parameters to the user parameter input, then create the callback vi. In the callback vi, i select the pump-control subvi, and pass the user parameter to the subvi. The problem is that, when i press the boolean control, the instrument (here is pump) can act, but immediately, the code crashes.
I use labview 8.6

You would wire the event registration wire that comes out of the Register for Events node into an event structure. You will need to right click on the event structure and check off "Show Dynamic Event Terminals" and it into that. Then you can create a new Event Case that uses the dynamic event. You can place your subVI in that event in whatever way you want. (Just drop the subVI in or do a Call by Reference there, or whatever.) Look in the Example Finder for "Dynamically Register for Events.vi".

Reverse Engineer Models Using DB Links ?

Hi,
I have tables that reside in database A.
I can access those tables from Database B using db link.
Is it possible to reverse engineer the tables belonging to database A in a model. If yes How?
Please reply.
Urgent Requirement
Regards,
Prerna

Hi Prerna Vij,
Yes you will.
- In topology, create a physical schema in your dataserver B. Put the name of the source schema on A and enter the dblink name you want to use.
- Create a logical schema and map it to the physical schema through contexts
- In Designer, create a new model using the logical schema you just created and build all the datastore manually
- Use these datastore as source in your interfaces and choose LKM Oracle to Oracle (DBLINK)
Hope it helps.

HT4623 I can't add events to my calendar. The + sign that used to be at the top right corner is missing.

Hi,
I've been trying to fix my iphone calendar from what other folks have written on my issue, but nothing seems to be working. I can't add any events, since the + sign is missing. I've enabled and disabled and re-enabled icloud, rebooted the whole phone on iTunes, and fiddled around with every setting with no luck. Any other suggestions?? Are there other calendar apps that work as well or better than the iphone calendar?

Just found the answer in the previously listed questions. Thanks!

Why does Calendar take up so much space and why can't I add events or sync?

Since I updated to ios7, my calendar hasn't worked at all. It used to sync with my Google calendar. Now I can't see any events in my calendar. The + sign to add an event is always greyed out so I can't add events. And something I've just noticed is that Calendar takes up 473 MB of space on my phone, making it one of the biggest users of space. (This might be related. If I search for an event in my calendar, it shows a long long long list of events that all say "New Event" that are scheduled to last all day. I can't delete these. It says they are assigned to "Untitled Calendar."
I've tried all sorts of combinations of turning on and off syncing calendars with Google and with iCloud. I can't detect any change. (My Mavericks calendar works just fine and syncs with Google.)

Has BlackBerry forgot Switzerland in Calendar Events - Location?

Hi all,
I just recently returned to a BlackBerry Q10 after about 3 years using android devices. I really missed the physical keyboard and the shortcuts that came with it.
After a few days of use I have discovered a problem with Calendar Events. When I enter an address here in Zurich, it should become a link that will launch BB Maps. It does not. I have tried various combinations of street, city, postal code etc. Even when I press the Map icon to search for an address and paste it into the event location, it does not become a link.
I also tried my old address in Paris and that didn't work either. It seems that the OS does not deal with addresses outside North America.
It would be OK if I could change the default map application to BeMaps Pro but I can't figure out how to do that either.
I was wondering if anyone has an idea or has had similar issues.
Cheers
Bruce

Hi,
Yes it works if you put in a North American address.
Example:
1. Create a new calendar event.
2. For "Location", type "2100 Yonge Street Toronto".
3. Save new event.
4. Open the event. The location will now be in blue font.
5. Tap the location text and BB Maps will open and display the location on a map.
It does not seem to work with Swiss or French addresses even if I search using the Map app first and paste the location into the event. I tried a UK address " 58 Baker Street London" and that worked.
Let me know if it works the same for you.
Cheers
Bruce

Looking for a Calendar-of-events to use in Muse

I am designing a website for an organization that wants to include their training schedule in a calendar of events. My understanding is that Muse does not have that function at this time. Can anyone recommend a third party software that can accomplish this?

Hello,
In case your website is being hosted on Business Catalyst, you can use the Events module from Adobe Muse to get a calender with schedule.
You need to create the events in Business Catalyst and use the module in Adobe Muse. This is what Adobe recommends. There is no third party software which is officially recommended to get this feature.

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.

Can I publish an event to more than one shared calendar in iCal?

I have shared calendars (called "home") with my wife & kids and (called "Work") with my secretary at work so that my family can add home events and my secretary can add work things .
I've done this as I don't want my secretary seeing when my kids have an appointment to see the doctor or my kids to see when I have appointments with clients at work etc.
However some things (like when I've booked leave from work) need to be on both calendars.
QUESTION: Can I publish one event (using OS X Yosemite or iOS8.2) to multiple calendars ("home" & "work") in iCal?

i generally hate toolbars because it makes the browser look cluttered and hogs memory. but u should ask an expert on this if it possible its not too easy, addons will probably help you, for example if you have the stumbleupon toolbar, there are addons that will create an extra button for you to put anywhare for quick access. this solution probably may not work with other less known addons.

Can't edit an event in my Calendar.

Yesterday I noticed that I can't edit an event in my Calendar. Also when I type a new event it drops some of the type off when I hit return. And it's not necessarily dropping off the end of the sentence! I'm using OSX10.8.5. The only thing that's different is last week I loaded Adobe CC. Not sure if that has anything to do with it or not. I've turned off Calendar in iCloud and turned it back on and that didn't fix anything. Any suggestions?

FOUND IT!!!
Found a previous post on here about it. I removed Lucida Grande and it's fixed!
"It appears the problem font for me was Lucida Grande. Resolving Duplicates didn't work properly, so I had to pull the old version manually."

How do I stop Calendar overriding my Event location

Hi
When creating an event in Calendar, the software is quite 'helpful' in offering suggestions for the event location as I type.
However, if I don't like any of it's suggestions, or wish to override the suggested location, the software seems to stamp it's feet and insist on formatting the location data the way IT prefers.
How do I stop it doing that?
For instance, I am attending an event at the "Institute of Directors, 116 Pall Mall, London, SW1Y 5EA"
Calendar finds a very close match for this and replaces my location with
"116 Pall Mall
London
England
SW1Y 5EA
United Kingdom"
Apart from the excessive screen real estate taken up by those superfluous new lines, it doesn't include the name of the location - "Institute of Directors" - and it includes 2 countries - England and United Kingdom - that I don't need to know because I live here.
Can I not keep my own preferred format in the location field?

I just fixed this issue by turning off the location support on iCal on my iPhone. If all your devices are synced up that may be causing the issue.
After turning off location support I was able to enter the address I wanted. It gave me a choice to stick with my address or choose from the list of suggestions. After refreshing iCal on my computer it displayed the correct address.
Hopefully your fix will be that easy!
