Cannot disable calendar notifications on iPad

Hi guys.
I have a new iPad 2, AT&T 3G White 16GB.
On my original iPad, I had it set so that I was not bothered by pop-up, on-screen notifications from the calendar & other apps.
For some reason, I am unable to do this on my new iPad. No matter what I do and what settings I change, I keep getting calendar reminders and it is driving me nuts, especially when it has been sitting for several hours and I get several reminders popping up one after the other, forcing me to manually dismiss each of them.
Also, I am running the latest iOS 4.3.1.
Help please!
Thank you

Here's a workaround. Go to "Settings", "Mail, Contacts, Calendars" and turn off your calendar under the Accounts section.
Then open up your browser, navigate to your email account via the web (gmail, etc.) and use the Bookmark feature "Add to Home Screen". With Gmail and GCal, I am able to add two separate home page app icons to quickly get to either.
No more annoying pop-ups and I even like my gmail/gcal interface better for the features it gives me.

  • Calendar notifications on iPad iOS 8.2 shows yesterday and not today

    Since I updated my iPad to iOS 8.2 my calendar  notifications in the notification centre are showing the wrong day. The calendar summaries for 'Today' and 'Tomorrow' are correct, but the actual calendar details shows me events from yesterday and not today.
    i have tried removing the calendar from notifications, and then adding it back. I have also tried a simple reboot of the iPad. Anyone know why it is doing this? What else can I try to fix this?

    WWhen the iPhone is connected via usb to computer. Look at tones on the device. Does the tone look different from all others, does it have a transparent circle next to the ringtone name?

  • Cannot stop calendar notifications.

    I Joined a shared iCloud calendar 'johns schedule' which is my wife's work calendar. However there are so many events popping up I decided I'd like to stop following that. I have disabled the calendar & turned off all notifications I can find in settings, mail/calendars. But I keep getting the pop ups. How can I stop it?
    here is a screen shot of my calendar app, the specific calendar for JOHN is disabled & it does not show in my calendar app. (But still alerts me)
    IN my iOS settings I attempted to turn off notifications, but this has not worked, I still get everything from Johns Calendar popping up even though it's not in my calendar any more....

    TThank you. I think I have done it correctly, here is the screen shot of turning off notifications for shared calendars - however just now I got another pop up, so this hasn't worked either.
    SOrry, I can't insert image, seems like it work work on these forums with ios8 now.

  • Cannot disable message notification sound

    This is a little weirder than it sounds.  I have unchecked the incomming message sounds.  Its always worked just fine.  But as of today when one of my contacts messages me I get the incomming sound notification.  Its unchecked.  I even tried disabling sounds in skype.  It still kept doing it.  Whats stranger is this is the only contact that makes the sound notification.  All the others are still silent.    I tried enabling the incomming sound with a custom sound file that was just silent.  Even this didnt work.  I have updated skype to the latest version and I'm running win7.  Any help would be great.  Thanks.

    I have the same problem, double notifications sounds because skype is running on desktop and in browser. I am sorry but why is this unlinking of accounts in every thread a accepted solution. This not a solution. I am fed up with the answer of unlinking your microsoft account from your skype account as a solution.  I was forced into linking my accounts to keep my msn-messenger contacts , so UNLINKING IS NOT A SOLUTION for many people, why on earth do i want 2 accounts for the same company their services. The other solution of signing out/going invisible is also not a solution. Since if you make yourself invisble , you turn invisble everywhere. If you sign out , well you sign out of your mail client. See ,I  could live with the enteir integration of skype in outlook but come on guys. This is going on like 3 years now and still you are clueless that a browser is fine for outlook but for IM it just lacks fine tuning.  The new skype integration looks at least a lot better but :a) again no settings for the skype part in outlook, at least a mute button would be nice. If I am working /relaxing /listening music , the only way to get skype in outlook.com to shut up is mute browser , mute OS , sign out or unlink accounts ,....?c)You call it beta software , with no option to opt out of beta unless unlinking account ? <- this one really baffles me    

  • HT204053 cannot sync calendar on my new ipad mini. my mac and macbook use a .me account for iCloud. How can I change this?

    I cannot sync calendar on new ipad mini. My mac desktop and mac book have an old .me icloud account name. Cannot change that so how do I sync?

    If you had a passcode set on your iPad your data should be safe.  The thief would have to force it into recovery mode and restore it in order to use it, which would completely erase it.
    This shouldn't keep your daughter's device from accessing the iCloud account however.  If you can no longer sign into the account on iCloud.com from your computer, contact Apple support for assistance.

  • How can I restore a desktop iCal calendar from an iPad backup copy? The iPad is routinely backed up to the computer and still has the calendar on it but I cannot get it to display on my desktop.

    One of several calendars was accidently deleted from the desktop. It is still present on the iPad and backed up to the desktop. Additionally, the iPad version can no longer be edited, copied or moved.

    Thanks for confirming my approach.
    I have tried your approach. I have a calendar with the most recent and future events; it is visible on all appliances; and, it syncs to the cloud without issue. I think I will wait for a very rainy day to transcribe five years of past events.
    BTW, the corrupt calendar cannot be deleted from the iPad using any normal appoach; additionally, the events cannot be edited or modified except as described above. I will follow up with Apple but this calendar predates the iCloud and apparently there are known issues in moving those calendars to the cloud.
    I tried restoring the calendar folder from Time Machine. It loaded initially, at least for the month I was watching as it loaded, and then deleted it again. So, the calendar I want to display still exists but is not accessible.
    Thanks for your time and help. If I learn any more from Apple, I will pass it along.

  • "Settings unavailable" in iOS app. And cannot uncheck "Disable all notifications" on web.

    I guess this problem started a few months back, when there was two "disable all notifications" checkbox in the settings. I happened to check both of them, and later, Spotify found out that they have put 2 boxes of the same function and removed one of them. I'm guessing that the issue started at that exact moment. The box was removed from both iOS and web. My setting got stuck "checked" and cannot be unchecked. Just guessing. What else could be causing this? Why everytime I uncheck "Disable all notifications" and save it, it gets checked again and it is impossible to uncheck with any browser on any platform, why? Why I see that "Setting Unavailable" page on my iPhone? I made sure Spotify app's notifications are on in iOS's settings. I believe, only someone from the team will be able to solve this by tweaking my account's setting file on the server side. I see no other solutions.

    I am having the same problem on iPhone 5 and what's more on desktop Mac OS application I am not receiving any new album notifications for about 3 months now. This is really annoying for I'm following about 360 artists and there's no simpler way of getting to know new album releases.

  • I have updated my Ipad 2 to ios5 and now don't have a calendar on my ipad but the calendar is still ok on my iphone and imac

    Today I updated my iPad 2 to IOS5 and now I don't have a calendar on my iPad but it is still on my iPhone and iMac.  Can anyone help me please?

    Hey there johnnyb141,
    It sounds like you are are connected to your cellular network but cannot get cellular data to work when trying to surf the internet with Safari. First I would check in the Settings to see if Cellular data is enabled, or if Safari is disabled in the Cellular settings:
    For the following options, go to Settings > Cellular Data and turn the options on or off, or follow the onscreen instructions.
    Turn Cellular Data on or off. If Cellular Data is off, all data services will use only Wi-Fi—including email, web browsing, push notifications, and other services. If Cellular Data is on, carrier charges may be incurred. For example, using certain features and services that transfer data, such as Messages, could result in charges to your data plan.
    From: iPhone User Guide
              http://help.apple.com/ipad/7/#/iPadbfe780eb
    If it is turned on, and Safari is enabled, I would next try the troubleshooting in this article:

  • HT201263 forgot passcode on ipad and i cannot restore  because it says ipad not connected to net

    forgot passcode on ipad and i cannot restore  because it says ipad not connected to net

    If You Are Locked Out Or Have Forgotten Your Passcode or Just Need to Restore Your Device
      1. iTunes 10 for Mac- Update and restore software on iPod, iPhone, or iPad
      2. iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
      3. iOS- Understanding passcodes
         If you have forgotten your Restrictions code, then follow the instructions
         below but DO NOT restore any previous backup. If you do then you will
         simply be restoring the old Restrictions code you have forgotten. This
         same warning applies if you need to restore a clean system.
    A Complete Guide to Restore or Recover Your iDevice (if You Forget Your Passcode)
    If you need to restore your device or ff you cannot remember the passcode, then you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and re-sync the data from the device (or restore from a backup). If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present. Refer to Updating and restoring iPhone, iPad and iPod touch software.
    Try restoring the iOS device if backing up and erasing all content and settings doesn't resolve the issue. Using iTunes to restore iOS devices is part of standard isolation troubleshooting. Restoring your device will delete all data and content, including songs, videos, contacts, photos, and calendar information, and will restore all settings to their factory condition.
    Before restoring your iOS device, Apple recommends that you either sync with iTunes to transfer any purchases you have made, or back up new data (data acquired after your last sync). If you have movie rentals on the device, see iTunes Store movie rental usage rights in the United States before restoring.
    Follow these steps to restore your device:
         1. Verify that you are using the latest version of iTunes before attempting to update.
         2. Connect your device to your computer.
         3. Select your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch when it appears in iTunes under Devices.
         4. Select the Summary tab.
         5. Select the Restore option.
         6. When prompted to back up your settings before restoring, select the Back Up
             option (see in the image below). If you have just backed up the device, it is not
             necessary to create another.
         7. Select the Restore option when iTunes prompts you (as long as you've backed up,
             you should not have to worry about restoring your iOS device).
         8. When the restore process has completed, the device restarts and displays the Apple
             logo while starting up:
               After a restore, the iOS device displays the "Connect to iTunes" screen. For updating
              to iOS 5 or later, follow the steps in the iOS Setup Assistant. For earlier versions of
              iOS, keep your device connected until the "Connect to iTunes" screen goes away or
              you see "iPhone is activated."
         9. The final step is to restore your device from a previous backup. If you do not have a
              backup to restore, then restore as New.
    If you are restoring to fix a forgotten Restrictions Code or as a New device, then skip Step 9 and restore as New.

    Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
    Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts   Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

  • Cannot send email from my IPad Air

    I suddenly cannot send email from my IPad Air. Keep getting message that my email recipient
    was rejected by the server because it does not allow relaying.  Don't understand what this means as I have been able to send email before.

    Paula, in most cases this message appears when you are sending email from a ISP server not in the pop settings and SMTP settings in your email program.
    In example if I send out email from my iPad I must be on my own isp's server to send. I have roadrunner but if I send email out using say Verizon's email server I will get a reject notice.
    You did not say what email program you are using but if it is hotmail or yahoo or your isp's email in two of these email accounts there are stand alone apps which work much better than the stock email program on the phone.
    If you are using road runner or another ISP email you must get the proper Pop3 (incoming) server settings and SMTP (send) settings from your ISP
    You can then just go into the Settings-Mail, Contacts and Calendar section and click on the email account and change to the proper settings from your ISP.
    You could delete as you were told but why bother when only the sending and receiving settings need to be entered.
    If the settings are correct, on an iPhone it tests the settings. If correct send an email. If incorrect you will need the proper settings from your ISP.
    It is actually very easy to do.

    Check the outgoing mail server setting. Make sure that your username and password are in there.

  • How do I delete a calendar event from iPad 2?

    Hello, I have a MacBook Pro running OS X Lion and my wife has an iPad 2.
    I invited her to a recurring event through iCal on the MacBook Pro.  My wife accepted the invite and added it to her calendar on the iPad 2.  I later updated the event from monthly to every four weeks.  My wife accepted the update but it added it as a second event on the iPad, i.e., both the original monthly series and the four-weekly series are present in the iPad calendar.  On the MacBook Pro only the updated event series is present.
    I've since deleted the event on the MacBook Pro.  My wife received the notification of the delete on the iPad 2 but there was no option to delete the event.
    How can I delete the two recurring iPad series?

    View the calendar in Month view.
    Tap on the event. You should see an outline of an arrow pointing to the event. At the opposite end of the arrow from the event should be and Edit button.
    Tap Edit and a larger box with the details of the event shall appear. At the bottom of that box should be a Red Delete button.
    This should appear for all events but perhaps automatic events or pleating events are different.
