Can't search event in iCal Leopard

After upgraded to Leopard, the search function in iCal doesn't work. When typing a event title in the search field, the search pan appears with empty contents. Does anybody get the same result?

Yup, I'm having the same problems over here.
Entering the exact word in a timed event title that's right in front of me leads to a search results panel without that event listed. At all.
Seriously, this is not good.
It's bad enough they took away the info drawer, but stuff not coming up correctly when searching just compounds the crapiness of it all

Can't search events in ical older than 1 yr on iPhone 4 since upgrading to OS7

This is a serious flaw. I found myself at Mayo clinic relying on searching my iPhone ical to look up past medical events. But I had upgraded to iOS 7 just B4 going & found SEARCH mode on iCal didn't find any event older than 1 year. Called Apple for help and was told this change came in with the new OS!!! And I asked how I could revert to iOS 6 --- not possible!! iCal on my Mac Air & iCloud show ALL my events. But the search mode on iCal on my phone doesn't show everything iCal saves - only the most recent events. Anybody have a workaround this problem??

If what I said helped, you can click on helped. If what I said answered your question, you can click on that. It is up to you, since all I'm here for is to try and help. I'm a user just like you.
Might I suggest something that I do, since I am an AARP member as well, I have created an Adobe document with this information, since I have had several surgeries in the past and then uploaded that into iBooks so I have that on the phone. I can update it as necessary and it keeps me from having to do a lot of searching.

Non-Busy Events in iCal Leopard

Does anyone know if it is possible to create a non busy event in iCal under Leopard?
I want to set up some informational multi day events, but do not want them to show as busy so that I can still have meetings scheduled during this period. I can find no options to mark an appointment or event as non-busy. The result is that if anyone tries to invite me to a meeting during one of these events I am automatically shown as busy and this ruins the availability window as well (blocks out my entire day).
This makes the shared calendars very limited in what we can use them for. An actual example, I want to show a change freeze in my calendar for three weeks and make it available to everyone. I put it in a shared calendar and I am unavailable for scheduled meetings for three weeks!
I appreciate that there are other ways to distribute the information but this is the best way for us, and it just does not work.
Thanks
Jason

One idea I have is for you to create a to do for each day and fill in the description you want in the note field - title of the to do would include the day as part of the header so your co-workers would know there is a "note" for each day. That way you do not show up as busy either on those days.
hope this helps.

Can't find Events in the Leopard upgraded iphotos?

I just installed Leopard but I don't think it installed my iphoto properly. It still says I have version 6 when I click on about iphoto. Is this normal? I can't find Events either which is one of the new features on iphotos. Anyone else had this problem?

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Installing Leopard does not upgrade the iLife application becuase they are not part of a system upgrade disk. Therefore you still have the same iLife versions that you had with Tiger. You either have to purchase a iLife disk or a new computer to get iLife 08.
Happy Holidays
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto 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), 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 08 libraries and Leopard. 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.

How can i export events from ical to word

I need to use the description of many events from Ical in a text using Word for Mac.
How can I do it?

thisone - Thanks for your response, but unlike most events, this one does not have an edit button before the Event Details screen. In the top right hand corner next to the words 'Event Details' there is just an empty space.
This event is extremely pesky and I have repeatedly synced my phone in attempt to remove it. It was an invitation I accepted for a recurring weekly event, which was sent to an email address for my old job. That email address is no longer active and no longer existing on my phone, but this event continues to show up on my calendar every single Tuesday.
Help?

How can I search events inside my calendar with Lightening enabled?

I have Lightening enabled in Thunderbird. I have all my calendars working. I just can't see any way to search events. All my toolbars are selected. I see no search function. Is there one? Can someone offer assistance? Thanks!

Clarification: Search is not a problem on the email side...but I cannot search my calendar events. Looking for help.

Can't search "entire message" in Leopard mail

Since installing Leopard last night, I can't search my mailboxes by "entire message"!!! The "Entire Message" filter text is greyed out. Anyone else have this issue? Any ideas?

You realize that you are in the Tiger forum area. Leopard has its own forum:

Does anyone know if I can number repeat events in iCal?

Hello
I am trying to number recurring events in iCal. I run language courses and I want to be able to number the lessons, so I can see at a glance what number we are on. Is there a way I can do this and set it that iCal will update the number when an event gets cancelled/moved.
Thanks for your ideas!

Maybe late for this answer but hope it helps, I had no service on my Iphone4 in the Bahamas even after adding a 5 dollar unlimited text package. This was Valentines Day weekend and we had NO SERVICE whatsoever. Verizon just confirmed that the network trouble in the Bahamas had been previously documented. My question is how was there broken coordination with an entire country that is updating it's network not compensating/preparing for it? The chaos that ensued from 3 family parties arriving at different times, having no cell service was not pleasant. We literally had to use email on local hotel wifi thru to communicate. Verizon's answer was that we should've run *228 to update but pointed out this was no guarantee that the networking issue would be solved. Whatever the reason, this is unacceptable for the amount we all pay each month. Having been a Verizon supporter for many years, I was very disappointed during this meaningful family event not being able to depend on my phone service. Please check ahead for alerts before you go!!

Can't add event on iCal via iCloud anymore

Since i update my mac in 10.7.5, it's impossible for me to add an event into iCal it said "Le serveur a répondu « 500 » à l’opération CalDAVWriteEntityQueueableOperation."(yes, it's in french). When i try it on iCloud directly by using safari, it said that the server encounter an error.
So, my event aren't synch anymore on my mac and phone, but my contact still are...
anyone with a clue?
Thanks by advence.

You may have un-selected the default calendar in iCal. Click on "Calendars" in the upper left, and see if any of your calendars are un-selected. (Also, go into iCal preferences and under the General tab see what is your Default Calendar. That's where new events are created.)

Can't add events in iCal on my ipad2 ...

Hi all ... don't have the plus symbol to add events in iCal. Tried quitting and reloading and a "hard reset". Any ideas? Thanks, in advance!

Go to Settings>iCloud>Calendar>On. Toggle it on and off. Leave it on if you want to sync with iCloud but then don't sync with your computer or you may get duplicate entries.

I can't change events in iCal 5.0.

On my MacBook OS X 10.7.1, I can't make any manual changes to iCal events. When trying to edit an event, any typed change is temporary and the calendar reverts to its previous data right before my eyes. Seems as though iCal can't write or save my changes! Can I delete iCal and re-install it, hopefully resetting any files & permissions to their correct settings?

Hi John,
Thanks for the tip. I created a new "temp" account with system manager/administrator privileges like my MacBook account (with which iCal doesn't work), and tried syncing the calendar from my iPhone to this temp account. I merged the calendar data and successfully added/deleted events on the calendar, both from the MacBook and my iPhone.
So iCal works OK with a new user account, but not with my original account.
I'm pretty sure that I've messed up the permissions on the iCal files associated with my original account, thus causing the problem. I was moving files from my PC to the public folder on the MacBook over the wireless network when I discovered that the files I'd moved to the public folder couldn't be opened or modified because the permissions were insufficient. When I tried to assign read/write permissions to these files on my original account, I must have also clobbered the permissions of the iCal files! (Any advice you have on this issue would also be appreciated!)
Can you tell me how to re-assign the proper permissions to the iCal files for my original account? Where are these files?
Thanks for your help - Tom

Can't rename event in iCal?

Hi everyone!
We're having quite a problem at our company common iCal. Aprox 20 different calendars are created and most is in use 5/7 days a week.
During last week we suddenly discovered a new issue - we couldn't create new events. When double clicking to create a new, others disappeared, but luckily now a few days after (and now with a brand new iMac) the case is that events can now be created, but it's impossible to rename when doubleclicking the event to edit it, however when hitting ctrl+mouseclick and "get info" it is possible to edit the calendar.
Edit: After a little time fiddling around with the calendar it is now clear to me, that the new events was created, but was invisible. Also, I can see, that some of the time, not all the calendars are visible, even though they're checked to be visible.
Anyone have discovered the same issue or know a solution?
Any help is appreciated!!!!!!

How can I remove events from iCal?

I send myself calendar invites (repeating weekly meeting invites)from Outlook from my office workstation, to my personal email address that I monitor on my iPhone. These are typically .ics files. Once I accept that event on my iPhone, then that event shows up on iCal.
But if I cancel that event on my workstation, I get the cancellation email on iPhone, but the event DOES NOT get removed from iCal.
How can I remove those events from the iPhone iCal app?
Thanks!

How can I safe events in ical (3.08) which I have received with mail (3.6). Before the update of ical, it worked fine., How can I safe events in ical (3.08) which I have received with mail (3.6). Before the update of ical, it worked fine.

I used to safe appointments sent by mail easily in ical. Now, that I have updated the ical and use just the calenders on me.com I cannot integrate a request in ical and send a confirmation.

If you don't know the sender, then it is most likely a scam or spam email. I get them every day - I just delete them. I also get daily notices from Facebook or someone called Adriana at Facebook even though i do not have an account there. Can't do anything about it - just delete it.
