Can a single instance of a recurring event be modified?

I would like to be able to modify a single instance of a recurring event? Is
this possible in iPlanet Calendar Server 2.x?<BR>
<P>
iPlanet Calendar Server 2.x allows the user to modify a single instance
of a recurring event through the User Interface (UI).
<P>
When you create a recurring event from the UI, it automatically treats
each date of the recurring event as its own event. Each event has its own
set of data.
<P>
When you click on a single instance of an event, it will display the current
data. If you want to modify the single instance, the UI allows you to apply
your changes to this instance only OR all future instances.

I've worked it out myself. Once a recurring ical event has been edited ical ask if you would like to affect just this instance or all future instances. This is not perfect though because if I ticked/checked the 'all day event' box I wasn't asked this question so a bit disappointing there. Anyway, I think it would be a good idea for ical to ask you what you want to edit BEFORE you edit it, therefore you can edit with a bit more confidence that you won't mess up future entries.

Deleting a single instance of a repeating event deletes the series

Has anyone noticed that deleting a single instance of a repeating event (e.g. deleting tomorrow's occurrence of a regular, weekly meeting) deletes the entire series? This is when using the calendar via the iCloud.com website. I've had this happen at least 3 times.
Configuration:
Ubuntu Linux 10.10
Google Chrome 12.0.742.91
Andrew

This happens without iCloud when you sync your calendar to MS Outlook/Exchange - it always deletes the whole series and makes it so I can never delete items from iPhone or iPad. IOS calendar is pretty lousy - won't let you edit things like the reminder time or location of the meeting, etc. when it comes through sync with Outlook/Exchange.
Wish Apple would actually make their calendar app useful or let a third party release a better one. Same goes for managing Tasks. E-mail is pretty good, but Calendar and Task management is lousy. And we don't even get to rate these apps like we do 3rd party apps.

Droid Incredible - Move one instance of a recurring event

Is there any way to move one instance of a recurring event? I am trying to take a recurring event on a given day and move just that one

I originally did all of my recurring events and calendar stuff from gmail/calendar. It then synced to phone.
You can click on the particular event and choose to delete the specific one. You can do that on either the phone or online calendar.

Can a single instance of iPlanet Web Proxy act as a reverse proxy for multiple internal web sites?

Hi Dave,
You should be able to create multiple reverse mappings.
Refer to the following technotes and see which scenario applies to your specific case:

Outlook Recurring Calendar Items - cannot open single instance

Hi,
I have a customer recently migrated from Rackspace email to Office 365. Just this one user has some calendar issues.
She has a ton of recurring calendar items been migrated over.
Initially, connecting Outlook 2013 to O365, read calendar items fine
After a few days (Not sure what trigged this), the user cannot access single item of the recurring event, it gives error "cannot open, this might be temporary. You changed one of the recurrence of this item, and this instance no longer exists..."
for the same item, go to OWA to access, it's fine!
Can't figure out what's the issue. if it's corrupted item, why the server end/OWA is ok? If this is ok, why outlook sync was originally ok?
I think this is outlook issue rather than office 365?
Thanks for any suggestions!
John
John Shen

Hi John,
Since it works correctly in OWA, there might be some corruption in OST file. We can try recreate the OST file and then test the issue again. To do this, exit Outlook, navigate to the .ost file and then rename it to .old. Then, restart Outlook to sync
a new one from the server. By default, the OST file is stored in the following folder path:
C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Outlook
Please let me know the result.

How to show next instance of Recuring Event in Calendar List View

We have a calendar that we are using to display upcoming events. However we are unable to get a clean output of next instance date for recurring events such as paydays or monthly meetings. As opposed to showing next instance it shows the date
the event was originally put in the calendar.
I am guessing it will take a custom script, but I don't even know where to begin with that.

Hi Swen,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to display the recurring events as separated events in the calendar list view.
I recommend to create a Standard View, with Expanded Recurring Events for the calendar list,
and each instance of a recurring event will be showing in this view.
More reference:

ICal crashes when editing one instance of recurring event

Maybe it is just my imagination, but this started just as MobileMe was released.
If I edit or delete one instance of a recurring event, iCal crashes about 90% of the time. I'm not sure why it does work in a very few cases. Usually it will show as "Not responding" in my activity monitor and start using all memory. When I force quit, the log files include the following:
Command: iCal
Path: /Applications/iCal.app/Contents/MacOS/iCal
Version: 3.0.4 (1263)
Build Version: 3
Project Name: iCal
Source Version: 12630000
Parent: launchd [458]
Any tips? My iCal is nearly unusable as most of my events are recurring, and editing events is a necessary tool. Let me know if I should post more of the error log.

Hi,
the following might help:

Good luck!

AppleScript and Recurring Events

I'm trying to create an AppleScript that will, essentially, e-mail every event for the week to Remember The Milk so that, on the iPhone, I can pull up Appigo's To Do and get an overview of everything I have to do for the day-- both RTM tasks and iCal events. For all non-recurring events, I'm in great shape.
The problem, of course, is the way iCal handles recurring events and start dates. Because it considers the start date to be only the first occurrence of a recurring event, they're excluded when start dates are used to get only those events that occur within a specific timeframe.
I can get all of my recurring events rather easily (although if anyone knows of better way than +...whose recurrence is not ""+ I'd be in your debt), but I don't want to sync every instance of the event. When regular appointments are canceled/rescheduled, I don't want to have to change them in multiple locations.
Is there a way to get AppleScript to work with only a single occurrence of a recurring event? (Or, preferably, several single occurrences, considering that I've got anywhere between ten and thirty recurring events, depending on the week.)
I had the thought of, before syncing every week, deleting any previous occurrence of a recurring event, but the script prompts me for the number of days I want to sync each time it runs, and I can foresee wanting to sync two or three weeks at a time, in which case simply deleting the event doesn't really solve the problem anyway.
null

Several lines of the “broken” script seem to be badly written, for example:
set root_Folder to rootFolder as alias -- rootFolder instead of root_Folder
set events_Folder to events_Foler as alias -- Foler instead of Folder

Outlook connector shows some deleted recurring events

We discovered an oddity that appears to be with the way Outlook shows a recurring event (seems to be an interpretation problem while reading and partially while writing). I'm using the connector from 139162-03 in either Outlook 2003 or 2007 set to sync calendar events every 1 minute and SCS6u2 on the backend with patches from around 2 months ago.
Simplest way to reproduce:
- On either a Sun web interface or in Outlook, create an event that recurs daily for 2 instances (or any equivalent way of making it recur twice, such as by setting the end date)
- If you delete the second instance from the Web, Outlook will display it fine (given ample time to sync up completely).
- If you delete the second instance from Outlook, the Web will display it fine, but the second instance will reappear in Outlook
- Considering the previous two lead to a difference while the result on the web looks the same, there is probably a difference in the ICS for those events on the server but I have not checked.
- Similar things hold true for deleting certain days of the even when recurring more than 2 times.
- If only the original recurrence is modified, the deleted recurrence re-appears in Outlook with similarities to the original event, not the one that was deleted.
- I'm not 100% sure on most of the behavior description since I may have been confused by changes that have not completely propagated through yet, but one thing I am sure of is a 2 day recurring event will have the second instance show back up pretty soon if the second instance is deleted in Outlook.
Initially I'm wondering if anyone else can reproduce this. We will most likely take it up with Sun's support soon but I thought I would try here first. Thanks.

I was able to find two recently created bugs which I assume are related to problem behaviour:
bug #6874243 - "deleted instances of a recurring series are still visible in OC"
bug #6883111 - "Moving an instance of a recurring event with attendees actually moves the first instance"

Lightning 1.0 recurent event and Communications Synchronization Engine

Hello,
We have noticed that lightning 1.0 does add interval value

Then our synchronica gateway does not sync recurrent
events.
Could someone test it with Communications Synchronization Engine
to tell me if there is also the problem?

When the interval is not set, synchronica will not sync the recurent event
although it should be ok:
chapter "4.3.10 Recurrence Rule" de http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2445.txt :
The INTERVAL rule part contains a positive integer representing how
often the recurrence rule repeats. The default value is "1", meaning
every second for a SECONDLY rule, or every minute for a MINUTELY
rule, every hour for an HOURLY rule, every day for a DAILY rule,
every week for a WEEKLY rule, every month for a MONTHLY rule and
every year for a YEARLY rule.

There is a documented known limitation in the release notes that appears to relate to the scenario you have described:

"If a single occurrence of a recurring event is changed the change is ignored."Hello Shane,
I also know this limitation as we (University of Geneva)
had reported it one year ago.
But this is a new bug which is much worse.
Basically, what happens with lightning 1.0 is that
all new recurrent events are synchronized
as a non recurrent event because lightning creates
the event differently without providing an OPTIONAL parameter
and while respecting the ical RFC.
There are no log to provide, the bug is easy to reproduce.
You just create an event (eg daily).
You export the calendar.
You remove the INTERVAL parameter in it as
the RFC said it is optional and has a default value of one.
You import this event.
You sync.
You have the bug.
Or you just install lightning 1.0, create an recurrent event
and sync.
From what I have been told by mozilla developers
the bug is not limited to lightning but all applications
that uses a new version of libical (like evolution).
Users have not yet met the bug because lightning 1.0
is still in beta. But when it would be available it is
going to be a very bad news.

How to Delete Recurring Events

Hi guys, how does one delete all instances of a recurring event from ical?

acook59,
Find the first time that the event was entered by using the search field, and delete it from that date. You will be prompted to "Delete All Future Events."

Content Query on Calendar does not show recurring events

There are three views that come with a Calendar list. One is the 'Calendar', second is 'All Events' and the other is the 'Current Events'. The current events is a cool view because it expands out items that have a recurrence (such as yearly). It also shows only the events that happen today or in the future by filtering out past items.
I have a content query web part that looks to this calendar which is maintained by the HR area. The calendar is a holiday schedule for the next 3 years or so. I can not seem to get the recurring events to expand out like they do with the 'Current Events' view. If I choose 'All Events' on the list then it will show only our recurring holidays and the holidays that can't be set up as recurring holidays. The content query web part appears to show only the 'All Events' view.
Is there a way to make the content query web part use the 'Current Events' view? I know the view option is there when the list resides on the same site, but in that case it uses a 'List View' web part instead of the content query web part.

I'm not sure the MOSS option will work for me for a couple of reasons. First, it seems this would require that the list reside on the parent site and the subsite be the one to use CQWP. I need to have the list maintained on our HR site where HR people have permissions to modify, and then displayed on the parent site where HR folks don't have permissions to modify. Also, I have at least two different columns that I really need to display and I haven't found a way to keep a link between two fields in the master list, unless I maybe use a calculated field.
The CSS modification may be a solution but I have not modified webparts via css. I really haven't done many modifications to the css anyway but I'm not afraid to try it out on my test system. I have looked through the Calendar.css and core.css and I don't find anything with ItemStyles in it. I have even done a search on the entire web server extensions folder and I still have not found ItemStyles. Will you please let me know where to find ItemStyles.xsl?
I found a codeplex project that might help with this. I could at least display two columns. However, it doesn't say anything about building out recurrence items so I'm not sure if it will fix my problem. I'll post my findings once I try it out.

Scalability of a single instance of Sun One 7

Upto how many concurrent users can a single instance of Sun One 7 scale (let's say on E10K with six CPUs & 6-8 gig memory), considering that a single JVM runs everything (http server, web & ejb containers, messaging server etc) ? Are there any numbers available ? Is there an option to have multiple JVMs within a single app server instance (like multiple KJS in iPlanet for scalability) ? If not, is clustering(in enterprise edition) the only option to achieve the equivalent of multiple KJS ?

Our performance engineers can comment on the core of your question, but here are some answers to other aspects of your post:
- The Message Broker always runs out of process. By default, each app server instance starts/stops its own broker process. After creating an app server instance, you can disable the auto start/stop of the broker and map your JMS resources to a broker that could be shared by multiple app server instances.
- In AS 7.0 Platform Edition and Standard Edition, there is one JVM process per app server instance. You can configure multiple app server instances to house the same apps and resources, but you will have to keep these configs in sync on your own and you will need to provide your own front end load balancer that routes traffic across these instances.
In the Enterprise Edition, configuration of cloned instances and built in load balancing across such instances will be available in the product.
- Keep in mind that the built-in HTTP server is a highly refined and efficient subsystem. You might be thinking that its presence incurs a lot of overheard when in fact it is very lean.
We'll have our perf engineers comment on the scalability characteristics of app server 7.
Thanks,
Chris

In iCal 8.0, how do I change a single event of a recurring event?

I am using Yosemite. I have a recurring monthly event for Payroll on the 25th. But, when the 25th falls on a weekend, I change it to the previous Friday.
To make this change, I drag the recurring event to that Friday. A popup says it will change all recurring events to that date.
How do I just change a single event and leave the future recurring events as is?

Without seeing your page, this seems less like a template problem and more of a design strategy problem.
You should be building flexible pages that can handle increased content, text-sizes, image sizes, etc...
CSS height property is a restriction in all but IE browsers. Either remove height property from your content areas or consider using a more flexible min-height.
More on min- and max- height & widths --

Hope that helps,

How can I get all of my calendars and recurring events to synch via iCloud with my iPad2?

Not all of my recurring events sych via the iCloud with my Mac and IOS devices - most specifically my iPad2. For example, my anniversary appears on my Mac and my iPhone, but not on my iPad2.
I notice that when I click on "Calendars" when the iCal app is open in my iPhone I get 2 lists of calendars - one that is labled "On my iphone" and the other that is labled "iCloud". The same two lists appear in the iCal app on my Mac. But on my iPad2 the only list that appears is "iCloud".
Can anyone help with this issue?

Welcome to the Apple community.
Contacts aren't backed up and therefore aren't restored from a back up either. They are synced with the cloud, so after you have restored your device you should be able to sign back into your account and turn syncing back on again. If you need to check if your contacts are in the cloud, go to iCloud.com on a computer.
