Can I make a birthday reminder repeat every year? (Using the Birthday Reminder List)

I see that when I enter contact birthdays they show up on my calendar...great.  But what about the children of my contacts?  I thought I would enter their birthdates using the Birthday Reminder List, but when I enter their birthday, it insists on entering the due date....will this reminder keep repeating each year?  If not, there's no sense in entering the birthdate.  I know I can set up an annually repeating event for the birthday but it just seems like I should be able to use the Birthday Reminder List for this.   Thanks

Here's what I've done which may work for others.  I've scrapped the idea of using the birthday reminders function.  Instead, I created a new calendar (click the settings icon in the upper right of the icloud website) called "Birthdays-Non Contact".  Then I entered the missing bdays as all day events (repeating every year) on this calendar.  So now all my birthdays show on my main calendar....some come from the birthday field in the contacts database and the rest come from my newly created "Birthdays-Non Contact" calendar events. 
Interestingly, if I choose to show only my "Birthdays-Non Contact" calendar, all my contact birthdays appear on it as well, so it gives a complete list of all my birthdays and nothing else....cool.
I should say, everything I'm talking about is what I see on the ICloud site.  My husband has the phone at the moment which I presume will show the same picture.

  • How to organize events that repeat every year with iphoto

    Dear Communitie,
    y
    How can i organize events that repeat every year with iphoto. For example, if i make picrues every year or 1 time a month, of my doughter, for example:
    Playing with our dog in the garden january 2012
    Playing with our dog in the garden march 2012
    Playing with our dog in the garden October 2012
    Playing with our dog in the garden december 2012
    Playing with our dog in the garden march 2013
    I don't know, what is the intelligent type of eventname.
    If i made "Playing with our dog in the garden", than i cant see the difference of growing (3 Month old chilren is completle different of a 5 Month old children)
    If i made "Playing with our dog in the garden Month Year" then the events are hundrets in 5 Year.
    I think, i don't understand, how to organize the contents with events. Is thera a whitepaer, a guide or somethink like that to take the DB organized how Apple iPhoto is meaning?
    Thanks a lot!
    Daniel

    The Trick is to create an Album
    Playing with Dog in Garden
    Drag the images you want from the Events to the Album. Sort the Album on Date. Now you have a chronological view of your daughter playing in the garden with the Dog.
    Albums are similar to playlists in iTunes. The contain pointers to files in the Library, so they use no disk space. An shot therefore can be in as many albums as you want.
    Some of the organisational possibilities of iPhoto"
    I use Events simply as big buckets of Photos: Spring 08, July - Nov 06 are typical Events in my Library. I use keywords and Smart Albums extensively. I title the pics broadly.
    I keyword on a
    Who
    What
    Where basis (The When is in the photos's Exif metadata). I also rate the pics on a 1 - 5 star basis.
    Using this system I can find pretty much find any pic in my 50k library in a couple of seconds.
    So, for example, I have a batch of pics titled 'Seattle 08' and a  typical keywording might include: John, Anne, Landscape, mountain, trees, snow. With a rating included it's so very easy to find the best pics we took at Mount Rainier.
    File -> New Smart Album
    set it to 'All"
    title contains Seattle
    keyword is mountain
    keyword is snow
    rating is 5 stars
    Or, want a chronological album of John from birth to today?
    New Smart Album
    Keyword is John
    Set the View options to Sort By Date Ascending
    Want only the best pics?
    add Rating is greater than 4 stars
    The best thing about this system is that it's dynamic. If I add 50 more pics of John  to the Library tomorrow, as I keyword and rate them they are added to the Smart Album.
    In the end, organisation is about finding the pics. The point is to make locating that pic or batch of pics findable fast. This system works for me.

  • I have created a spreadsheet on numbers for ipad with a list of customers as a drop down menu. How can i make their address appear underneath when i select the customer?

    I have created a spreadsheet on numbers for ipad with a list of customers as a drop down menu. How can i make their address appear underneath when I select the customer?
    iselect the customer?

    Hi bazza,
    We won't be able to put the address from a formula into the same cell that you enter the customer's name. We can put the address in the cell under the customers name.
    First let's take James advice and concatenate the address in the address table.
    Here is the formula in G2
    =CONCATENATE(B2&"
    ",C2&"
    ",D2&"
    ",E2)
    It shows this way because after I clicked on B2 and typed [&"] (no brackets) I typed option-return
    This gives you your new line. Then I typed the closing ". I repeated this for the rest of the address.
    Next we want to bring this to your order sheet. I prefer using the two formulas OFFSET and MATCH instead of VLOOKUP.
    base tells OFFSETwhere to start counting from. Click A1.
    row-offset is for the row. we will use MATCH() -1 to give us the row.
    What MATCH does is give you the row number where something is found and you can specify an exact match. I usually construct the MATCH formula first and then cut and paste it into OFFSET. MATCH looks like this: MATCH(A2,Table 1::A,0). A2 is what we are looking for, Table 1A::A is where we are looking (the entire column A), and 0 means we want an exact match. Can you see it inside the OFFSET formula? Notice that we had to subtract 1 from its result.
    column-offset tells OFFSET which column A=0 so we want 6.
    we ignore "rows", "colomns" we don't need them.
    If this seems like too much, just break it down into small pieces.

    just try the following:

    Help me out please

    Hello, aligt9p. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
    To create an Apple ID without a credit card, there is a specific series of steps that have to be processed in order to allow the payment to be set as none on creation of the account.

    Why can’t I select None when I edit my payment information?
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5366
    If the specific steps have not been processed, a credit or debit card will be required to complete the setup the account.
    However, it can be removed and payment method changed to none as long as there is not an outstanding balance.

    How can I make more room on my 6-year old MacBook Pro? I already have an external hard drive.

    Two options:
    Delete files from your Home folder you no longer use or need (but do not delete anything from the /Home/Library/ folder.)
    Buy and install a larger hard drive. You can find suitable drives at OWC. You would need a 2.5" notebook drive that is SATA II or SATA I compatible - 1.5 or 3.0 Gb/s.

    I have two accounts to my computer as administrator. How can I make it so both accounts have access to the same folders and programs? grateful for answers. Martin

    Obvious question: If you want to have access to the same folders andapplications, why have two accounts? The point of different accounts is that you don't have access to the other person's data.
    Any application in the HD/Applications folder is available in all accounts.
    Sharing data between accounts depends on the material being shared. So, if you can provide more details we maybe able to help you better.
