Can't open calendar events to edit

Can't edit events in ICal.

There are several possible causes for the Black Screen issue
1. Permissions in the Library: Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Include the option to check and repair permissions.
2. Minor Database corruption: Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild.
3. A Damaged Photo: Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and right click on it. From the resulting menu select 'Show File (or 'Show Original File' if that's available). (On iPhoto 11 this option is under the File -> Reveal in Finder.) Will the file open in Preview? If not then the file is damaged. Time to restore from your back up.
4. A corrupted iPhoto Cache: Trash the com.apple.iPhoto folder from HD/Users/Your Name/ Library/ Caches...
5. A corrupted preference file: Trash the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder. (Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
If none of these help: As a Test:
Hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?

    I need to delete a calendar event that transfered to my 4S from my Droid phone. This event occurs yearly.  When I open this event, the edit button that normally appears in the upper right corner does not exist so I can't delete it.  Any suggestions on how to get rid of it?

    uninstalled firefox ....deleted all files still remaining under mozilla firefox directory in program files ... to avoid having to reprogram all my settings, reisntall all addons as well .. I did not remove anything from mozilla firefox that is stored in either appdata or under the windows users directory (if any)
    ... the as suggested reinstalled the latest version of the firefox browser using the link you provided in the email ..; tested and several issues still remain present and unresolved ....
    so please this is urgent or I will have to jump browsers and start using chrome .. because we work 14 hours a day 6 (sometimes 7) days a week, to get ready for the launch of our newest venture and we cannot lose that much days on browser related issues ... so please instead of putting me through week long step process .. of do this .. do that .. can you please actually look into the issue from your end .. I use firefox for so many, many years thta I deserve this kind of support .. thnx Robert

  • I can not open calendar with OS X Yosemite

    Since updating to Yosemite I can not open Calendar. The top of the screen is there (i.e. file, edit, view, etc.) but I can open the actual page.

    @drkpvc
    I am guessing that when you upgraded your iPhone to iOS 8 you said yes to the question 'Do you want to activate iCloud Drive'. This will have converted your iCloud account to a form that will only work with iOS 8, Yosemite and Windows.
    As Csound1 said Yosemite is not yet available. So if the above is correct you are stuck and will have to wait until Yosemite is released.
    One workaround you could try is opening the document on your iPhone and sending it via email to yourself. Then you hopefully will be able to save and open it on your Mac.

  • Can i set calendar events to four weekly?

    Can I set calendar events to four weekly rather than monthly or fortnightly?

    in iCal double click the new entry after you make it, and it will pop up a new window where you can edit furhter settings like the alert and repeat settings.
    just choose 'repeat' and then custom, you can then choose any configuration of days ,  weeks etc, and on what day if you choose weekely, for example 'every 3 weeks on a wednesday'

  • Since updating to mavericks i can't open ical or text edit

    since updating to mavericks i can't open ical or text edit.
    do i really have to reinstall, will take me 20 hours athome

    There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 9 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS. So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Include things like:
    - What version of iPhoto.
    - What version of the Operating System.
    - Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For example, if you have a problem with exporting, then explain by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
    - History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted? - Are there error messages?
    - What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
    - Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
    Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.

  • Can't open Calendar- 1712 error message?

    Hi, All of a sudden I can't open Calendar on my MacBook. I get an error message "The application Calendar can't be opened. -1712" Calendar working fine on other synched devices though. Any ideas gratefully received. Thanks.

    I have exactly the same problem.

  • After signing in successfully can't open calendar and integrated gmail doesn't show my mail and calendar

    Three issues that occur after successful sign in:
    1. Can't open calendar or any other gmail option, I get a message saying: Firefox prevented this page from automatically redirecting to another page.
    2. Can't set appropriate signature in the settings signature box. When I try to save it say "Sorry, the signature [email protected] is too long. Please try a shorter signature." This is my email address and I want it as part of my automated signature that I placed in the appropriate settings box.
    3. I loaded the integrated gmail add on (may be called an extension) and it doesn't work. My calendar doesn't show up when I sign into mail. It used to work beautifully and was very helpful. I believe I'm on the latest version of Firefox. What can I do? I have three (3) other gmail accounts and have these same issue with all of them.
    *** Sorry, but I need these issues resolved immediately as I use gmail for my two businesses and personal account. ***

    (1) You get the infobar from Firefox saying that the site wants to redirect you? You can turn that off here:
    orange Firefox button ''or'' classic Tools menu > Options > Advanced > General
    Un-check the box for "Warn me when websites try to redirect or reload the page"
    More generally, when you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
    (1) Bypass Firefox's Cache
    Use Ctrl+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
    (You also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
    orange Firefox button ''or'' Tools menu > Options > Advanced
    On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now")
    (2) Remove your google.com cookies (save any pending work first) using either of these:
    * While viewing a page on the site, right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    * Alt+t (open the classic Tools menu) > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    Then try reloading the page. Does that help?
    (2) I'd have to log in and see what this feature is
    (3) Could you provide a link to that particular extension over on the add-ons site, or it exact name?

  • Can't open & create event in iCal

    I used to be able to open & create an event in iCal.  But, the last time I sync'd my iphone & macbook it asked me which event was correct.  I clicked on the one on the right and haven't been able to view or create on macbook since (can open & create event on iphone).

    What do you see when you click on the Event? Also can you see the photos in the Photo mode? In the Photos mode do you have Event Titles selected in the View menu so they display? That will let you find the event you want and see if you can see the photos there.
    Try the basic fix first: close iPhoto, delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your User/Library/Preferences folder, launch iPhoto and see if that helps.
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
    Note: There's now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

  • How can I see Calendar event END times at a glance?

    How can I display my Calendar event titles exactly as I type them? I do not want Calendar to remove duration from the titles of my events. Otherwise I can't see event END times at a glance in month view; only start times. How can I "trick" Calendar to just show my titles as I type them - as I always could before I upgraded. I used to be able to enter "Seminar 9am-5:45" and it would appear that way regardless of how or what I chose to enter (or not enter) for duration.
    I am running OSX 10.9.3.

    It's a bit weird, but if you type in the time info TWICE into the event title then Calendar uses/deletes one of them to populate the event details and leaves the other.

  • Can't open iphoto file to edit in Elements 10 even though external editor is set

    Right clicking on iphoto file, selecting "edit in external editor" resullts in spinning beach ball.  Each attempt at opening a file initiates a reopening of Elements even though it is already opened.

    Can you open images normally in Photoshop Elements?  I would recommend including this information as well as which verson of iPhoto and Mac OS you are using to the Photoshop Elements forum.  It might also possibly be a problem with iPhoto but the users in the Photoshop Elements forum should better be able to determine where the problem lies.

  • Can't open Calendar on 5800XM

    Hi there,
    I can't open my calendar any more on my 5800 XM.
    If I select the calendar icon on either the home screen or in the menu screen, the screen seems to pause and then I get the home screen / menu screen again.
    Any idea?
    Thanks

    Same problem here. It is NOT working. It's actually quite bad. When you accept a meeting invitation in your inbox, the invitation disappears. And as the calendar entry does not include the attachement, there is no way to access it anymore. It's gone from the inbox and it's not included in the calendar.

  • Can't create Calendar Event from Mail on my iPad anymore

    I no longer can create a new iPad Calendar Event from tapping on a date in email I receive.  The new Event dialog box will still appear when I click on the date in an email, but the dialog box is now too small and off-center, hiding the Done button in the upper right corner of the Dialog. Without the Done button, I can't create the new Calendar Event.  I can't resize the dialog box, or re-center it. 
    Is this a common problem after the latest iOS update?  Can anyone help?  Thanks.

    This still works for me in iOS 6.1.3
    Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPad?
    Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after the iPad shuts down, then press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
    Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds). Ignore the "Slide to power off"

  • Can't update Calendar Event Title or Location on IOS 7 iPhone (Google Calendar account))

    I am using IOS 7 Calendar App on an iPhone 5 linked to a Google Calendar account.  I can create a new event on the iPhone and I can update the event time, the event and updated time will sync to google and other linked devices as expected.  However, if I update the event title and/or location, those changes appear to save, but then, after a few seconds, the event spontaniously reverts to the pre-update values.  The updated title/location never appear in Google or on my other linked devices.
    Does anybody else have this problem or know of a solution?
