Can't add an event in month view

I just installed Lion on 3 of my machines (2 iMacs and an air). On my one iMac I am unable to add an event in month view in iCal, I have tried every which way possible to add an event and nothing. However I am able to add event in day and week view. Also, when I go to add an event in month view while I don't get a response on the troubled iMac my other two computers show that and untitled event was added where I was attempting to add the event. Has anyone else experience this problem after installing Lion?

Tim,
Try refreshing the iCal plist file. You will find the com.apple.iCal.plist file in your Macintosh HD/Users/yourusername/Library/Preferences Folder. To get to the Library folder use Finder>Go>Depress the "Option" Key and select LIbrary. Quit iCal, drag the .plist file to your Desktop. Then log out/in or restart.

With iCal can I hide repetitive events in month view only?

I was wondering if it was possible to hide repetitive events in month view but have them show in week and day views. For instance, I have my class schedule on iCal but I don't want to see it when I look at the month view, I just want to see events that are not repetitive, such as exam/test events. If anyone can help, that would be awesome. Thanks.

jk_baller23,
You could create a separate calendar for repetitive events, and uncheck them when using the day/week view.

How can you view multi day events in month view without having to check the "all-day" box?

I have multi-day events that I would like to be able to view in the month view. The only way that I have found to do this is to make the event a "all-day" event. Is there another way to view these events in month view, or am I stuck?

It shows multi-day events that are "all-day" events.
But for a non "all-day" event that happens to span multiple days, it only shows the first day

Can I change the way iCal displays events in Month view?

I don't like the way iCal in the new OS displays events in Month view. It's counter intuitive to have the time of the event be at the far right and grayed out. I find myself staring and slowly scanning down the display just to find out when I have to be at an appointment. I wish they had stayed with the other display, not only was it much clearer, it also word wrapped so you could see the entire description. I have blank space at the bottom of the day, and at the same time missing information because of the lack of wrapped text.

Hi Daniel,
The option you have there is to change the calendar of the event (currently the "University" calendar in your screen shot) not the colour. It is the calendars that have colours in iCal not the events.
To change the calendar colour in OSX 10.7:
Click Calendars (in the top-left corner of the iCal window), and select the calendar by clicking its name in the Calendars pop-up list.
Choose Edit > Get Info.
Choose a new colour from the pop-up menu in the top-right corner of the Info window.
To customize the colour, choose Other, and then make your colour selections in the Colours window.
I hope that helps.
Best wishes
John M

Adding event in Month view

Is there a way to go straight to the detail box when adding an event in month view? When I right click on a date on the calendar then choose "add an event", it just puts it right on the calendar, then I click that so I can put the time down, then only the small box opens so I have to click the "edit" so it will open the big the box that has all the options in it.
Does this make sense? Is there a way to right click a day, choose "add an event" and have it go right to the bigger box where you can finish all the details of the event?
Also I saw a reference to the "info sidebar" in the Mac 101 support on the website.
"In the Info sidebar, click the New Event text to display the text box and type a name for your event, like dentist appointment, band practice, or a birthday party."
Where do I find this "info sidebar"?
Thanks all in advance!

rtha,
Just double click on the day that you want to add the event. That action will display the full edit field.
The info sidebar information on the Mac 101: iCal page is in error. It used to exist in the previous version of iCal.
I suggest that you provide: Apple - iCal - Feedback

ICal multi-day (not all day) event in Month view not displayed over days

What is it when I have an event that starts on a Wednesday and 4:00pm and goes to Friday at 6:00pm (not clicked as an All Day Event), (in Month view) the only day showing the event is the first day?! Shouldn't it show it over the course of the 3 days!? Outlook does that (I can't believe I just referenced Outlook in an Apple Discussion... in a positive light no less). Is it a setting?

Yes, Apple any help for this would be great. The only way I've come to work around is to use multiple events. So for a flight out of town would be one event, and the return another. I would create a third event then for the actual time out of town. There must be some way to easily fix this.

How can I add an event to my calendar that occurs every third day...I have an ipad.

How can I add an event to my calendar that occurs every third day?

Do you happen to have a Mac? If so, and if you use iCloud to sync your calendars, you can do that on your Mac and your iPad will understand. But you cannot create such a repitition (or something like the third Tuesday of each month) on your iPad.
In Calendar on your Mac, you would create the event, choose "Custom ..." as the repitition frequency, then choose "Days" and choose every 3 days.

Multi day events in Month View.

Multi day events in month view only display on the first day. Checking all day event fixes this, but none of my multi day events are in fact all day. If I sync with my iphone, it does mark both days on the multi day event in month view.
In week view they display correctly, but I like to have the month drawn out.
I am surprised to come across this hang up. Other calendars I have used always displayed such events across the month view.
Is this a bug or lack of feature?

Bug or design flaw?
Try setting it as a recurring event (yeah, I know, it's not a great solution, but it gets the job done)

All of a sudden I can't print my calendar in 'month' view. It only does day or list. Any thoughts.

Thank you so much... I put this in another thread too, but, through help I learned that it is the errors that's causing this. The problem is that I don't know enough to fix it. It happens in a nested table, (don't know CSS well enough either to use it instead) and I can't figure it out... its a full page table, 50% on each side, and a center cell that should contain a same-size nested table... as in, I want to put all the content in the center.
The error: "table" is not allowed within: "tr"
<body>
<table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
<tr>
    <td width="50%" valign="bottom"></td>
    <td width="980" align="center" valign="bottom"/><table width="980" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
      <tr>
        <td width="980"> </td>
      </tr>
      <tr>
        <td width="980" align="right" valign="bottom"> </td>
      </tr>

Ical cannot create event in month view

iCal cannot create event in month view. Is this a bug?
I've tried double clicking in a day as I always did but nothing.

Ko be,
Application UI issues are in many cases, caused by a corrupt plist file.
Quit iCal, and try removing the com.apple.iCal.plist file from your Macintosh HD/Users/yourusername/Library/Preferences Folder. Since that Library is now hidden, you have to use the Finder>Go Menu>Depress the "Option" key>Library. Drag the .plist file to your desktop, and log out/in or restart and check iCal for functionality.
Also read Apple iCal 5 Office Software Review | Macworld for a description of Lion iCal.

Can't add any events to my Calendar on my iPhone 5S

All of a sudden I can't add any events to my Calendar on my iPhone 5S. It worked fine just a couple days ago. I haven't loaded any new software and I haven't changed anything in the Settings regarding the Calendar. I have the latest (newest) software 8.2 upgrade. I've done everything I can think of, including turning it off and restarting it. I have not reset it back to factory defaults, I hope not to have to do that.
Bob

I click on the + button (add button) and it does allow me to enter a Title, a Location and all the date/s & time/s. The Add button is active and I click on it and it returns me to the calendar. I don't get any kind of error. However, their is no event on the day or time I chose. Tried it on different dates, different times, and doesn't matter whether it's a Specific Time Event or and All Day Event, it just doesn't same it.
Thanks for the quick response by the way,
Bob

Can't see daily/weekly/or monthly views with iCloud

can't see daily/weekly/or monthly views with iCloud; having other issues as well

I can see them in 'Active Appointment" view, but not on my daily/W/M view.
(They are also grouped in 'AA" as appointment, recurring weekly, recurring monthly, and recurring yearly. This makes it hard to find the right appointment as I cannot group them all on one entry)
I need to have this so that I can tell by day what my appointments are...

If you touch one of the appointments/events listed in the widget it brings up that appointment/event only. You must touch the date listed at the top. Not totally obvious.
