Can I set multiple iCal alarms to play iTunes 4 times a day?

I would like it to play an iTune at 4 different times during the day (upon my AM Kdg class' arrival/cleanup time and again upon the PM Kdg class' arrival/cleanup time, for instance).
Is this possible or am I stuck with only 1 alarm capability?
(I don't want to buy a cd alarm clock - that's just another thing to plug into the wall. I want my iMac to work FOR ME!)

Hi,
I've been browsing the discussion forum and you seem quite knowledgeable.
Regarding the question about triggering event alarms several times a day
do you know if there's any way to modify the "repeat" menu to repeat tasks hourly (rather than typing in a specific time). I have a bunch of scripts I'd like to execute every hour, four hours a day, for a month. I'm using ical to control a sound installation in an art show.
Thanks for your help.
Francesco

Can you set the i pod to play albums one after the other as it seems to stop once its played the one album!! :-(

Unfortunately that is the way the interface is designed. If you select an album from the albums menu, then it plays an album, optionally shuffled and/or repeated. If you select from the artists menu then you should be able to shuffle the albums or songs by that artist or have them played in sequence, again with options to repeat. You can also cue up a number of songs or albums with the On-the-Go playlist feature.

Put an appointment on your calendar and set it with audible alarm.
THere are also apps, I have one called Alarmed, and you can set an alarm, for example to wake you up. Not sure how it works if you've closed the app though.

Yes, you can have as many devices - iPhones, iPods, iPads - as you like using the same iTunes account.

Hi sandexpress,
As Ocean20 indicates, you want to make sure that you have automatic syncing turned off. In iTunes Preferences under Devices, make sure you have "Prevent iPods, iPhones, and iPads from syncing automatically" checked. Then connect each iPhone, and make sure that "Manually Manage Music and Videos" is checked on the Info page for each of them. Then go into each page for each device, and select what you want to sync to that particular device. (you would do this one device at a time - complete the steps for one of the phones, then connect the next one and do the same thing).
With this kind of setup, you can modify what will sync at any given time for a particular device once you have connected it to iTunes, but before you click on the Sync button at the bottom of the screen. If you want to change some sync options on a particular device, you would just go into the page you wanted to change (Music, Photos, Apps, etc.), make your changes, and then Sync.
If you do not have any changes, you can just hook up the phone and click on Sync.
Hope this helps.
Cheers,
GB

No, sorry, you can't. The screen lock passcode is either on at all times or it's off.

Can the iPhone have settings profiles? I want the settings of what apps are using the "call home" automatically set based on my location or the time of day. Is this possible?

Can the iPhone have settings profiles? I want the settings of what apps are using the "call home" automatically set based on my location or the time of day. Is this possible? Of course the GPS location feature will need to be on in order for this to work. But the idea here would be to optimize battery life by disabling the 'call home' requests of apps. The settings profile should also support downloads as I would like to download and allow it when I am on WiFi but not so much when I am using my cellular data.

No, this is not possible as the sandboxed nature of iOS would not allow any app to modify another app like that. Such a feature would have to be enabled by Apple as a part of iOS itself. You can submit feedback to Apple about the idea if you wish to.

Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
    •    Launch Settings app
    •    Tap on Wi-Fi
    •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
    •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

Can't set multiple days on ical

Does anyone know how I can set my ical on imac to give me option to select more than one day for an event. I will be on vacation for a week and I want to save it as such but it only allows me to select one day at a time. Can anyone help?

hureir,
Make sure to click on the "all-day" check box.

Can you set the default alarm to be an email alert?

Just curious. I noticed that in the preference window, it allows you to set a default alarm that always starts as a sound.
Any plug-ins that will do this?
Thanks a bunch.

Try this add-on so you can schedule the sending of multiple emails:

Scripts and Workflows set as iCal alarms not functioning in Lion...

...or it could be becuase i am using a Beta version related to the Beta for iClloud and iOS5....I'm not 100% sure....
All I know is that I have scripts and workflows that used to work before the upgrade, they STILL work when I run them independantly using Script editor and Automator, but they do not run when the iCal alarm that they are tied to goes off. Coem to think of it, the only way that i know those alrms are going off is that I get a notification on my synced iPhone that tells me they are going off. - so i guess I really don't know if those alarms are working on my mac at home.
any thoughts or help?

For me it's completely random. Some examples of what's happened to me...
- I've set a new alarm (that I need to go off weekly) When I first set it it will pop up, but then the next week it will not. But then sometimes it will.
- I also have an alarm to check woot.com everyday that NEVER goes off.
I don't know if anyone else is having this problem (or if it's related) but something else also started happening the same time I installed Leopard... Occasionaly whatever window in any program I'm working in will all of a sudden go inactive / ghosted so I'm not able to type, etc. I have to click on the window I was working in to make it active again.
The tech I talked to thought that perhaps a pop up alarm was popping up OFF screen and therefore causing the inactive window problem. But after erasing all the info in my iCal (that's right, EVERY appointment had to be reentered) I know for a fact that's not the problem.

Can I set the ipod to shuffle play only a playlist?

I have an iPod classic. Can I set it to shuffle play only a selected playlist? It looks as though I can only shuffle all the songs on the iPod.

Usually, in addition to the "Shuffle All" function on the main menu, there's a shuffle play mode that can be toggled during playback.
Start playing your desired playlist, then press the center button and see if there's an option to toggle shuffle mode on.

How do you set a calendar alarm for a specific time on the day of the event without it being an all-day event

Does anyone know how to set a calendar alert at a specific time on the day of the event.
So that the alert date adjusts accordingly if you were to copy and past it to another date.
The custom alert function kind of does this, but because it is an absolute alert (not relative) it will still refer to the date you initially set it to when you copy and paste it to another date. So this creates more work where you would have to go and manually change all the custom alerts. I have potential
Anyone know how to set this kind of calendar alert?
Thanks in advance

Greetings: Set the alarm to message you (on your screen) and then snooze it every day for 15 days, or, set 15 separate alarm messages. There is probably an AppleScript somewhere on the web too, try searching that way as well.
