Cannot create new iCal events or to-dos

I tried looking at the earlier post but still am having no luck... i went into the calendar caches & moved everything to the trash but it hasn't helped
i am running 10.5.8 & have iCal 3.0.8

OK, get this. When I double-click to edit NOTHING, I REPEAT NOTHING happens on screen BUT, if I click my button to see all open apps, voila! iCal appears with an edit window, but disapeers when I select iCal. This is nuts.
I have this problem too. I think it has something to do with Spaces. The edit window IS there but is off the screen window. Moving iCal off-center may bring the edit window into view. I'm still searching for the solution too. Perhaps putting iCal in all Spaces windows may work.

In mail "create new ical event" has stopped appearing in ical

Please help! I love clicking on data in email to bring up the "Create New iCal Event" box, and using it to put new events into my ical calendar. But recently when I "Create New iCal Event" from an email, and click "add to iCal" the window closes but the event doesn't show up in iCal. I can still add events by clicking on a calendar date in iCal and typing them in, but the link between Mail and iCal seems to be broken. How can I fix it?
Could this be related to how Firefox recently broke? Foxfire will not save bookmarks any more, either, I click on "Bookmarks," then "Bookmark this page". The window closes but the bookmark does not save. Also, the forward/backward browser arrows no longer work on Foxfire.

Could you be more specific? What happens (or fails to happen?)

Create new iCal event from contents of mail uses wrong date

I received an email today with an appointment using the date "6/3/2010 at 4PM". Being from the US, it is obvious to me that this meeting should occur on June 3, 2010, but when I attempt to create a new iCal event with this date it creates the event on March 6, 2010. Even more confusing is that when I choose "Show this date in iCal" it highlights March 7, 2010!
My question is:
Shouldn't the system default to a month/day/year date preference everywhere when I've selected US English in the internationalization preferences pane?

have a very similar question: is there somewhere an application where I can, when receiving an email, put it into iCal so that I am reminded about it in a week or something?

Cannot add new iCal events on my iPhone 3G.

My iPhone 3G has stopped saving new iCal events. I can still set up new events in iCal on my laptop, and they'll sync over to my iPhone, but new events won't save when entered into iCal on my iPhone. Any idea what's wrong and how to fix this?
BTW, I just got rid of a MobileMe account. I never ended up using MobileMe, so it doesn't seem like that should be the issue here, but I noticed that some other folks have had iCal sync issues with MobileMe, so I thought I'd add that info.

In other words, it's hacked.
Sorry, you can't get help here.
Say for an instance, that it wasn't hacked. Would you suggest to just wipe and restore it?

Create new iCal event as easily as Outlook?

Is there a way to create an event in iCal like Outlook? I may be missing something.
Outlook - click once on the day and type
iCal - click twice on the day, then click once on the event name, then type (I know there is a keyboard equivalent, but that is slower, also. Where does the focus go upon creating a new event?
Almost everything I do on a Mac is cleaner and more friendly, but iCal is frustrating. Also, to get Info, you can't just double-click on something. You have to navigate to Show Info on the contextual menu or go to the keyboard. In Outlook, you just double-click and it opens with focus on the most obvious place.
Are there some shortcuts I am missing? I have read the shortcuts menu item and it gives no hints.

Welcome to the discussions, whardy7.
Double-click where you want it (in Week view you should be able to get it right to 15 minutes) then type the Event name (focus will be in the field) then tab & type through the various fields. Have the Info panel open all the time, then simply click an event to see details.

Help creating an iCal event workflow

I'm trying to create a workflow where I run & a window pops up so I can add the details & then it adds the details to iCal.
I was trying to use the 'New iCal Events' action which when run display a window where you can enter the details, but it won't work properly for me. If I run it from Automator the details I enter are added correctly to iCal, but if I run it from the workflow I saved (as an app) the details I enter don't get transferred to iCal.
Is this a bug, or am I doing something wrong?

don't hope too much. automator bugs haven't received high priority in the past. you might want to look for a workaround using apple script.

New iCal event

What is the quickest way to create an ical event? I find it is a 2 stage process. First clicking to add and event, then clicking again to edit to set the stand and end times etc. Surely adding a new event should be a single stage process.

This seems to be a design choice, eliminating the sidebar that had all the editing info available on the right in the previous version. I guess this unclutters the screen a bit, but the downside is that you need to call up that editing window... That's all I can think of... Seems like many things that should be user preferences are not user definable (like my pet peeve, wanting the color that highlights the current day in month view - it's too pale - I have to tip my laptop screen back to be able to even see it. Wish I could set that color...)

I cannot delete an iCal event on my Iphone.

I cannot delete an iCal event on my Iphone. It does not have the edit button at the top of the screen.
The event does not show up in iCal on my Mac or on my iCloud.
One of these is a reoccuring event.

The only other thing I can think of is to try deleting the entire calendar from your iPhone and then sync your iCal calendar to your phone again. This needs to be done carefully. I would begin by backing up your iCal calendar on your mac for safekeeping by opening iCal, then going to File>Export>Export, save this on your desktop. Then do the following:
On your phone go to Settings>iCloud and turn Calendars to Off. You should get a prompt asking you whether to keep or remove the calendar data from your phone. Choose to remove it.
Without connecting your phone, open iTunes on your computer and go to iTunes>Preferences, go to the Devices tab check "Prevent...from automatically syncing".
Now connect your phone and, as before, go to the Info tab of your iTunes sync settings. Confirm that you have checked to Sync Calendars with iCal, then further down under Advanced: Replace information on this iPhone check Calendars, then click Apply at the bottom to sync your phone.
This should transfer your iCal calendar to your iPhone, hopefully this time without the problem event. Check your phone to confirm that this was successful, then you can then go back to iTunes Preferences and re-enable automatic syncing.

Cannot create new folders in Outlook

I just bought a new PC computer. I installed MSFT Office Professional Plus 2010. I opened Outlook and added in (i) the pst folder I had set up from my previous Vista
computer (also with Outlook 2010), (ii) my hotmail account, (iii) my at&t/yahoo account and (iv) my gmail account. I cannot create new folders in any of them.
When I right click anywhere in the navigation pane and select "New Folder..." I get the following error message:
"Outlook cannot read the registry information.
-Close and restart Outlook.
-Reinstall Outlook
-Reinstall Microsoft Exchange or other e-mail system."
I tried all three, including removing and reinstalling Office and removing all of the email accounts/pst files and re-adding and still have the problem.
If I try to right-click properties on any of the accounts, I get the same error message, with the following additional language first:
"Cannot display 'General' page. This page will remain visible, but is not available."
Not sure what is left to try.
Appreciate any ideas.

Hi
Thank you for using
Microsoft Office for IT Professionals Forums.
From your description, If the PC from clean install, you can follow these steps to test this issue.
1.
Start the Outlook in safe mode,
Press and hold the CTRL key,
and then click Outlook.
If the problem does not occur in the safe mode, this issue might be related to some third-party add-ins in the Office program, we can try to disable them.
2.
Create a New profile & PST file to test this issue
If this problem does not occur in the new Outlook profile & PST, the old Outlook profile is corrupted. We can delete that and use a new Outlook profile.
3.
Make sure the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office

How do I Create new iPhoto events?

How do I Create new iPhoto events?

The Photos.app does not support events. The library is structured automatically by Moments and Collections.
The "events" you are seeing in the migrated library are albums and not events. These albums have been created from the photos in each iPhoto event.
If you want something similar for new imports,
select the photos in the "Last Import" album
and create a new album for each new import.
Name this album, like you would name a new event.
Drag it to a folder for new events.

Cannot create new folder?

I have just moved to a new hosting and have connected to it
and I can edit files. When I try to add a folder to the remove I'll
get
"An FTP error occured - cannot create new folder .
Access denied. The file may not exist or there could be a
permission problem".
Any idea?

Hi,
Did you make any changes before the issue appears?
Before going further, you may try the
system restore to go back to a previous status and check the result.

ask for it), then execute setup.exe /preparedomain
cheers ! :)
