Can't make alarm work in iCal

Hi there, I've created events and reminders in iCal 5.0.1 but the alarm doesn't come as it used to in iCal Version 2.0.5. There's no alarm at all, even I've tried different ways, even leaving iCal on, and it still doesn't work. I thought that it was because the computer was in sleep mode, took it out of sleep mode and still doesn't work. Maybe I'm not setting it up the event in the right way, or maybe I have to link it to another program to make it work? So can someone help please?
Thank you,
Claudia

Same problem I have. Alarms seem to work if the event is created elsewhere, in my case an iPhone or Gmail calenders. But if you create the even in iCal 5.0.1 the alarm information is lost as soon as you close the event.
Apple, sounds like you have a bug here. iCal was really useful until this bug hit it.

Could be a bad cable or bad Thunderbolt port.

My Zoom in Gesture Doesn't Work on Safari How can i make it work?

I just bought a mac book pro 2011 and i know that the zoom in gesture used to work on safari at first but it doesnt anymore how can i make it work again?

So it does not work at all in Safari? Do you have any other web browsers installed that you could test it out on to see if it is just acting up with Safari?

Check firewall and any security software installed on your system. Toggle off/on home sharing on your computer.

My form has a list of yes or no questions. I want to use either cheboxes or radio buttons. Unfortunatly I can't make it work. When I check yes for one question, it marks all yes answers for all other questions. If I mark some radio buttons to answer, it unmarks later. Need immediate help!!!

Is it that you are using a PDF-based form? Did you copy and paste the Yes/No fields all the way down your form? If so, then all of the yes/no boxes are copies of each other and have the same name and properties in the PDF.
For example, if you had:
     Question 1 and Question 1 Yes/No checkboxes
     Question 2 and Question 1 Yes/No checkboxes
     Question 3 and Question 1 Yes/No checkboxes
     Question 4 and Question 1 Yes/No checkboxes
Then whatever answer you selected in Question 1 would populate down through the rest of the form.
Changing the Yes/No field properties in questions two through four would eliminate the problem.
I hope that helps,
Brian

Unfortunately, the recording & movie industry does not respect the rights of the people who make them money, and thus you can only use the paid-for content in ways they see fit. Even if I lived in a bunker where no one else could possibly see the movie I paid for, therefor I'm not 'sharing it illegally', I would still not be allowed in a blue moon to copy that movie to DVD for TV viewing. Someone will tell you to get an AppleTV. How about Apple give us one for free? Until this changes, people wanting to use their content in multiple locations will continue to download music & movies via torrents, legally or illegally.

I found this plugin which solved pretty much all of my mail font rendering problems. It is designed for Lion, so don't know whether it will work but thought I would offer it up.

You may want to download and read the manual for your phone. It may answer a lot of the basic questions.

There is an app on your phone called "Mail". Yes, it's for reading your email.
Best of luck.

Need to add condition to a template and can not make it work.

I am trying to add a condition to a template and can not make it work. Mainly because I am new at this. I have a field that needs to have a condition set. The field is LTD. The maximum value is $233.00. If the amount is less the 233, that value is used. If it is over 233 then 233 is used. So, if LTD is greater then 233.00 then 233.00 else LTD.
Can anyone help me write this for a Word BI Publisher Template. I need this report now but can't go to class until later this year.
Thanks,
Rick

Replace LTD with the correct element name.
<?choose:?>
<?when: LTD > 233 ?>233<?end when?>
<?otherwise:?><?LTD?><?end otherwise?>
<?end choose?>

When will email alarms work in iCal 3.0 and Leopard?

I have been trying to follow the Apple discussions of some of the problems in iCal 3.0 under Leopard. Fortunately, I haven't experienced some of them. The one that is bothering me is the inability to send email alarms. This is a feature I used a lot in Tiger and want to use again. My iBook and iMac are syncing pretty well, and my calendars are, too. However, if I create a new iCal event on either computer and then try to set an email alarm, I get this response: "You must add your own card and email address in Address Book in order to be able to use mail alarms" with a link to open Address Book. When I open Address Book, there is no conceivable way to follow the above instruction. Either I am missing something very simple, or Apple has not fixed this bug in iCal 3.0 and Leopard, despite having stated in a knowledge base document on November 15, 2007, (http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=306907) that as a result of the 10.5.1 update "iCal alarms are now more reliably delivered via email." Has anyone figured a go-around for this problem?

Well, here I am answering my own question. I went into Address Book preferences on my iBook, which was upgraded from Tiger to Leopard, and found that my own card in Address Book was no longer indicated as being "me". I checked the box to indicate that, and then--voilà!--my email alarms worked in iCal. I guess I should have realized that the upgrade to Leopard didn't necessarily create all the preferences that had previously existed in Tiger. Once I check the iMac, which came with Leopard, to ascertain that this fix works on the iMac, too, I will mark this question as answered.
