Can I set up new events with leaps?

I've tried to set up some Maya calendars on iCal without success. My idea has been creating a group of calendars made up by "full day" events, in which every event represents a day, and every calendar, a count. The point is that in those calendars there are always leaps that are repeated every while, and as far as I've done, after a leap happens, I must re-start to create the same events. Am I clear?
Let's make an example. Imaging a calendar made up by four days (too short, but its for the example). I have created an iCal calendar with four events, and each one is set up to be repeated every four days; till this point it works as desired. But there's a leap of one day that happens every year, and I haven't been able to set it up; after erasing the event of that day, I must re-start to set up the future (four, for this example) events... Can't I set events with leaps on iCal?
I've also thought about another possible way to set a calendar like that. I found a table for finding out the correspondence between Gregorian calendar and a 260 days Maya Calendar, by making an adding. There's a number for each month of the year, and also every year has a number. You have to add the number of the month plus the number of the year plus the number of the day of the month, and only if it is higher than 260, you will need to subtract 260; thus you will know which of those 260 days is today (or another date).
So, if I can set an iCal calendar using something like "if today is 2nd =2, of June =151,  2011 = 7; add 2+151+7; and if answer is higher than 260 subtract 260; so day number is 160". I could also set some other calendars from that one, like "if answer is 109 or 110 or 111 or 112, then "codon" number is X. Any suggestion for creating an iCal calendar like that from other way, like Developer Apps? Or if not for creating an iCal Calendar, maybe for making a Widget?
Thanks for your attention.

Am I not clear? I guess I got excited trying to be clear explaining details... But got dark!
And if I just say, Can I create an iCal Calendar event, set up to be repeated every monday, but after a specific date, be repeated weekly every tuesday? If not on iCal, another advice?
Thanks in advance!

    Hi all, I had a 4S but it damaged totally now and I bought an iphone5. Can I set up it with existing account? In that case, can I restore all my apps I used in 4S?

    when you connect the new phone it should ask you if you wish to restore it from a backup of the old one
    then you say yes
    and then it's a copy of the old device in terms of data

  • New event with no sound from iPhone

    When I set a new event with an alert from iPhone, on iCal of my iMac (synched via Mobile Me) I always got as alert a "message with no sound". How can I get an alert with sound (on my iMac) when I set a new event from the iPhone?

    First of all check the volume buttons....if they are fine
    Try and do the basic operations...
    - reboot - reset
    - if it is still not working then once try restoring it through itunes....it should solve most of the problems...
    - if it still exists then it must be a hardware issue...if u r under the warranty period then apple will replace it for sure....
    hope this helps you...
    if u need anything else then please reply...happy to help....

  • TS4000 How can i set all my new events with a default e-mail reminder.

    I only can set an alarm but not an email reminder with ical. I can make this if i set the new event through gmail but not with my mac. I used to do that but now i have to set up that personalization on each new event.
    sames happens with iphone (but i never made it work with new events in iphone)

    I want FF to stop trying to tell me what to do.... My issue is I understand the risks of both sides of the spectrum. Every new version is not better than the last. My issue is the idea that "I MUST HAVE THE NEWEST ADDON" is my decision to make. I'm hoping there is a means simply set FF so I manage my own addons, and it doesn't turn them off every 4 days as a new version comes out.

    i was using same id on 2 iphones with no problems suddenly everything got mess, how can i set a new id w.out losing my contacts?

    I believe because you migrated from a Nokia to an iPhone you need to register the Bn phone number with your Apple ID so it can be used for iMessage. The Pn number seems to be the only one registered
    Go here > https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/
    Manage your Apple ID and see if that does the trick
    Hope that helps

  • How can I set up two iPhones with the same contact, photos, music etc... but a different sim card and phone number. They will both be my phones, but one will be for use in other countries.

    How can I set up two iPhones with the same contact, photos, music etc... but a different sim card and phone number. They will both be my phones, but one will be for use in other countries.

    Phone A = phone with information you want duplicated
    Phone B = phone that you want to copy from A
    Backup Phone A.
    Wipe Phone B using these instructions. What to do before selling or giving away your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
    Phone B should be on the 'Hello' screen. Do not swipe it. Launch iTunes. Plug in Phone B.
    When iTunes asks if you want to set up as new phone or restore from backup, choose restore from backup of Phone A.
    After this setup, any changes to one phone (i.e. adding a contact, downloading an app) will have to be manually duplicated on the second phone, if that is your desire). Making changes to one phone will not affect the other after setup.

  • Can't add a new event to iCal on my iMac - but the event sync's to my iPad - is this a Lion problem? iCloud is on.

    Can't add a NEW EVENT to my iCal on my iMac- however the event is sync'd to my iPad with no problem. iCloud is turned on for iCal. Is this a Lion problem or something turned pff. I cannot find an answer. Help?

    William,
    It is a possibility that you are adding new events to your "On My Mac" calendars.
    "On My Mac" calendars will not sync with iCloud. After backing up the "On My Mac" calendars, and ensuring that all events are duplicated on your iCloud calendars you can delete any "On My Mac" calendars.
    For further troubleshooting advice read iCloud: Troubleshooting iCloud Calendar.

  • I can't add a new event to my calendar on iPhone.

    I can't add a new event to my calendar on iPhone. The plus sign is greyed out and even when I try it with Siri it says "Sorry. I can't do that right now". I did my due diligence and searched all over the forums and internet and I can't fix this. There was a listing in a forum where a lady had this same symptom but it looks like toggling iCloud worked for her. Not for me. I went into Settings>iCloud and turned off Calendar and then turned it back on. Still nothing. I even went to iCloud Backup and turned it on then back off and still nothing. Anyone have any suggestions? Thanks!

    See if you can go to your Calendars App and select a previous event to see what Calendar the event was added to (iCloud or Yahoo). After that is determined you can go to www.iCloud.com or calendar.yahoo.com and add the event there to see if it will populate on your device. Another troubleshooting step is deleting the iCloud account from your device and also deleting the Yahoo account. Then check to see if you can add an event without it syncing to a email. If you can then it may have just been a bug and you can add both accounts back and try adding the event again. I would also recommend only using one service to sync your Contacts, Calendars, Reminders, etc. Such as either iCloud only or Yahoo only, as using multiple accounts means your data is spread around and can be hard to isolate when something goes wrong.

  • ICal Lion is infuriating. How can I add a new event in a chosen calendar without having to create it in my default then edit it?

    iCal Lion is infuriating. How can I add a new event in a chosen calendar without having to create it in my default then edit it?

    We are all entitled to our own opinions. So I respect you there brother
    But then again, Apple has its own basis. iOS is what's selling like pancakes not Macs, so if the gazillions out there are using iOS device and have gotten used to the calendar in their iOS devices. Wouldn't you think it made sense if Lion has the same calendar look and feel?
    Everything was considered and weighthed when they developed Lion. They even mentioned it in the press, They were blown away with the success of iOS so they are extending it to OSX.
    Quite frankly, I like the old iCal but yeah I don't expect anything in SL to stay in Lion otherwise it'll be another Cat name related to Leopard
    People should start looking at this perspective and not get STUCK in the old OS.

  • How can I set a new passcode?

    How can I set a new passcode.  I cannot remember my old passcode and now I can't get in.  I can get phone calls and see text when it's sent to me but am unable to use. Help me please!!!!!

    The only answer for that is RESTORE your iPhone using any functioning computer with iTunes. Yes, you are going to loose all the data,
    Actually, wrong!!  If you try to restore using a computer the phone hasn't synced with, you'll have to enter the passcode into iTunes during the restore.
    In my experience, the most effective method for people who simultaneously "forget" the passcode that they had to use many times a day, and mysteriously lose access to the computer the phone synced with, is to ask the rightful owner for the passcode or return the phone to him.
    There is another method involving recovery mode, but the OP is on his own for that.
    Question:  Is is better to let your data "loose", or lose your data?

    How to set all new vm with VLAN ID as a default settings and alose set the avaiablity high .

    Hi Ramy,
    As a work around , you can create a VM without installing OS and  configure the Vlan of VNic , then export it .
    The new VM will be with Vlan ID when you import the "export file".(note : you need to select "copy the virtual machine " in the tab "choose import type" during importing ) .
    Hope this helps

  • Can i activiate my new iphone4s with a different computer that i activated my first iphone with as long as i'm using my itunes account?

    can i activiate my new iphone4s with a different computer that i activated my first iphone with as long as i'm using my itunes account?

    I sync my iPhone with my MacBook Pro.
    I installed the 3.1.2 firmware update today with a PC laptop running Vista that I haven't synced my iPhone with. I made sure the Windows laptop was running the current iTunes version, and before connecting my iPhone, I disabled automatic syncing when any iPod or iPhone is connected which is done via iTunes preferences under the Devices tab.
    I took a risk and didn't create a backup for my iPhone when prompted. The firmware update followed by installing the AT&T carrier update was done without a hitch.
    This is risky without having a backup (which I could have done beforehand) and without having any of my iTunes content available on the PC if there was a problem installing the update.
    Do the same at your own risk. The worst would be not having any iTunes content to transfer back to your iPhone in the event you needed to restore your iPhone with iTunes on a different computer but if you allow iTunes to create a backup for your iPhone in advance, at least you could restore your iPhone from your newly created iPhone backup in the event of a problem.

  • How can I set up iCloud sync with Outlook 2007 using Hotmail account?

    Hi,
    I installed iCloud PC control panel. I tried to sync my contacts and calendars from Outlook (2007) to the cloud but I gets this message: "Add an e-mail account to Outlook Before setting up iCloud". I have an Hotmail account synced up into my Outlook via Outlook Connector. Can iCloud sync with Hotmail accounts?
    What should I do to get my calendars and contacts synchronize to the cloud. Does Outlook 2007 can be synced by the cloud too?
    How can I set up iCloud sync with Outlook 2007 using Hotmail account?

    I found a way to fix this, it did the trick for me:
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3109623
    All you have to do is include a new e-mail account [email protected] (set it as a default) on Outlook with the options that are showed in the thread I linked and you should have the calendars and tasks syncronised. It works perfectly with ipod touch, ipad and Outlook 2010 on windows 7.
