Centro Calendar event display bug

I have had Palm handheld devices since 1998. I just got a new Centro and am installing my data onto it. (My phone service has not yet switched to it; it is still just a pda at this point.) This upgrade went smoother than previous ones, except for two minor issues and one major one. Minor issue #1) My new Palm Desktop software (ver 6.2.2) does not display any colour on my Sony Vaio running XP. Minor issue #2) I cannot seem to tell the desktop to store the data files anywhere other that Cocuments and Settings/Carol/My Documents/Palm OS Desktop.
Major issue: The Centro will not display all of my calendar data. It only displays entries that have a Repeat setting! I spent a L-O-N-G time with a Palm tech-support guy on Monday. All of the records are on the Centro - the count matches the Desktop, and the Centro reports that it has plenty of free space.
The Tech Support guy eventually became convinced that I had corrupted data, so he had me run the utility that checks for corrupted records.
In the Options box (Options tab) the "Check and repair any corrupted records" does nothing. This thing ran for HOURS and never produced any response. Subsequently, I created a brand-shiny-new Palm setup, with NO data in it, and asked it to check for corrupted records. It ran for a half hour doing NOTHING; I got bored and killed it. Then I started my own debugging. I spent 4 hours methodically testing things and I discovered that ... when the 32,767th record is added on the Centro, all of the other records (except those with Repeats) do not display. Deleting a record does not make them re-appear. So, I believe there is a bug in the Centro software - a 15-bit counter is overflowing (flipping bit 16 and going negative which not surprisingly upsets the Centro). Is this a known problem and is there an update I can get so that all of my data can come with me?
The Desktop software happily displays all 34,000+ events. However I had to go into the .mdb file with Access and delete several thousand records (my events from 1998-2002) so that the Centro will behave. I have kept the original Datebook.dat file so that I can force the Desktop to re-build the FULL .mdb whenever I get a fix for the Centro overflow bug.

I regards to the color categories, it is stated on the download page on the Palm website. You probably have installed Palm desktop directly from the CD which does not explain the differences.
In Palm desktop 6.2 the function to store the data in a different location is not available.
Regarding the calendar entries, you have probably exceeded the maximum number of records allowed on the device.
Here are a couple articles regarding this from the Palm website.

Were you instructed to use DBFixit by the Palm tech?
You will need to purge old records from your database.

  • Why would a repeating Calendar event display on both my Macs and my iPhone, but not on my iPad?

    I have accepted a repeating Calendar event invitation. It displays on both my office and home Macs and on my iPhone, but it doesn't show up on my iPad. I've checked to ensure that the proper Calendar is displaying on the iPad, and all of my other events seem to be displaying just fine. I'm stumped by this one!

    Welcome to the Support Communities. The answer is that Adobe's Flash Player is an unsupported product on mobile devices such as iPad. In Adobe's own words: 
    "We will no longer continue to develop Flash Player in the browser to work with new mobile device configurations (chipset, browser, OS version, etc.) following the upcoming release of Flash Player 11.1 for Android and BlackBerry PlayBook." (Source)

  • "Fix" for Calendar Events displaying one day early

    I posted a question about this a couple of weeks ago, but can't find my original post. No way to search by user name, so I gave up looking for it after 10 or so pages. Because there are several others who have posted about the same problem, I decided to start a new discussion describing the fix that worked for me, with help from Apple Tech Support.
    Background of my problem: New iPhone 4S, set up as "new phone" -- calendar events synced via MobileMe without any problems. Or so I thought. Discovered a few days later that any "All Day" event was shown on the day prior to the actual event -- US Holidays and Birthdays in particular.  Events with specific start/end times were displaying on the correct day.
    Checked these forums and was unable to find a solution, so I made an appointment for the following week with Tech Support to have someone call me. Fred first had me try resetting the phone. Didn't fix it.
    Note: Somewhere in our troubleshooting, he had me turn off the Birthday and US Holiday calendars on both the phone and iCal on my computer, then turn them back on and do a sync. This did not correct the event dates. If I remember correctly (I wasn't taking notes), this was before changing any settings in iTunes and didn't fix the problem. However... it *might* have played a part in the final fix, so if the following steps don't fix it for you, try adding in the off/on for the calendars before changing the iTunes sync settings.
    What finally worked :
    Changing a setting in iTunes to overwrite the Calendar on my iPhone and doing a Sync (bypassing MobileMe entirely). Here's how to do it.
    In iTunes, go to the "Info" tab and scroll down to the Advanced section. There are 5 checkboxes there and selecting one or more will overwrite the corresponding items on the iPhone during the next sync only. He had me check Calendar, then perform a Sync.
    That worked!  For US Holidays, but most of the birthdays were still one day off, except ones I'd entered manually in iCal. All of the misplaced birthdays are published by dates I've entered for contacts in Address Book on my Mac.
    I went back to iTunes and checked Birthdays in the Advanced area and performed another sync. That overwrote the Birthday calendar on the phone and now all of my Birthdays and US Holidays are showing on the correct days.
    Would have been quicker if I had checked Birthdays at the same time as US Holidays, so when you follow the steps, check both Birthdays and Holidays to save yourself some time.
    Hope this helps all of you who are having the same problem I was.

    All of my dates are out by one day in ical (and address book). I can change them manually (best advice I could get from Apple), but it keeps happening to me. Any help appreciated, I have 10.8.6; macbook pro, iphone 4s and am frustrated. This seems to be a common problem but I can't find a fix. 
    In the post above advice is to go to itunes, "info tab", Advanced...but I don't see an "info tab" -
    Thanks for any help!

  • All day calendar events not being displayed in the notification centre for iphone 5 post ios 7 upgrade. Please help. Is it a bug?

    All day calendar events not being displayed in the notification centre for iphone 5 post ios 7 upgrade. Please help. Is it a bug?
    With iOS 6, the all day events showed up in the notification centre but it lacks in the upgrade iOS 7.

    Same problem here. Some people pointed out that all-day events do show up in their notification center, but that seems only to be the case for birthdays (and only as text like the weather). I've tried it myself on my iPhone and iPad and it did work for birthdays but not for any other all-day events. I already sent this to Apple as a product feedback as well, as should everyone of you. The more people mention it, the faster Apple's going to fix this issue. In its current state, notification center is not a very helpful feature in my opinion. There's absolutely no point in not showing all-day events in the 'today' calendar overview.
    Here's a link to the product feedback page: http://www.apple.com/feedback/
    I posted my message in the iPhone section since I couldn't find a page specifically dedicated to iOS 7.
    I really love the look & feel of iOS 7 but it's kinda sad to see notification center not tapping its full potential.
    Cheers!

  • How can I change the event display in an APEX 4.2 calendar?

    Colleagues:  The APEX calendar feature is pretty neat, but of course there's a feature I'd like to use but can't find how/where to change it.  In other calendaring apps (e.g., Thunderbird) when an event is logged, like tomorrow's staff meeting, the time is blocked out vertically for the length of the event.  So for example: if staff is from 2pm-4pm, both 2-3 and 3-4 are colorized so a quick visual will show what times during the day are not available.
    The APEX calendar will show a colored bar for the start time of the event, but not a blocked-out vertical for the entire event.  Make sense?  Any way I can change the calendar/event view to accommodate this?
    Thanks for your help.

  • How can I display my MS Outlook/Exchange 2010 Calendar events on my web application's calendar?

    I'm building a web (client) application (built in html/JavaScript/jQuery) that has a built-in calendar. I would like to pull in my Outlook/Exchange Calendar events
    and display them in my web application's calendar. What is the best way to do that from a JavaScript/jQuery environment? I've been searching all over for plugins or examples of how to talk to Exchange/Outlook and retrieve Calendar events but I haven't found
    a solution yet. We are currently using MS Office/Outlook/Exchange 2010. I don't need to modify the calendar events, just read them. (Note that I can't use an OWA Web Parts link
    to display the calendar in an iframe; I need to have access to the actual event data so I can include other UI elements that I need for my application.) Thanks
    in advance for the help!

    Hi,
    There's an old Java API for EWS, and you can access EWS with direct soap request to retrieve the data you want.

  • Bug: Repeating Google Calendar Events Show Up On The Wrong Days

    I've created a Google Calendar event that repeats "Daily," every two days, from 6:00pm to 6:30pm. It shows up fine in my Google Calendar, but the Pre's Calendar puts them on the wrong days. For example, the repeating event that should be scheduled for today shows up tomorrow (offset by +1 day). 
    I tried turning off network timezones, but the bug remains.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated. If this is a bug, how can I submit it to Palm?
    Thanks! 
    Post relates to: Pre p100eww (Sprint)
    Some new data:
    If I create the repeating event on my Pre, rather than via Google, it shows up on the Pre correctly. However, it only shows up for one day via Google (today); the event is not repeated. When I edit the event in Google, it's setup correctly. I tried saving the event from there, but it doesn't cause Google to recognize it should repeat.
    Very frustrating.
    Even more new data:
    Created yet another event via my Pre instead of via Google. This time Google picked up the correct repeat pattern, and my Pre now shows it on the correct days.
    Calendar sync needs serious work, based on my experience. I have issues with Facebook events showing up an hour later than they should, too. Dunno if this has been fixed yet.
    New Data (01/28/2010)
    Not sure why, but the above success reverted back to being off by one day; temporary success only.
    Message Edited by tlpbsd on 01-28-2010 11:52 AM
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Hi, another quick question: you say you turned off network timezones.... did you make sure that the (now manually set) timezone is correct?
    Sounds similar to other issues related to the timezone being off, but usually the appointments were off by hours... not day(s).  However if your timezone is set to something really odd and the event you're creating is around midnight (again depends on a few things here), then MAYBE this is it.
    If it isn't, one of the support guys will have to chat with you privately about possibly collecting logs, getting more granular details, etc.

  • Recurring calendar event bug from Exchange

    In Outlook, we can create a recurring meeting for things like the first Monday of the month, or the 5th of every month.  But if we schedule a meeting to occur the second weekday of every month, it appears wrong on our phones for every date except the very first one.  In other words, each subsequent month is wrong.  For what it's worth, we also get incorrect results on Android phones.  But Windows phones handles it properly. 
    Has anybody else run into this on their iPhone, and if so, did anybody find a solution other than creating a bunch of individual meetings to hit the proper dates??

    Just following up if anybody else has run into this bug in the way the iOS interprets certain recurring calendar events synched from Exchange?
    To experience this bug, create a recurring event in Exchange (via Outlook) and set it to occur the second weekday of every month.  The first month on your iPhone/iPad will be correct, and every month after it will be very wrong. 
    Hopefully Apple can fix this at some point. 

  • IPhoto - Hidden Photos - Events Thumbnail Display Bug

    _*iPhoto - Hidden Photos - Events Thumbnail Display Bug*_
    iPhoto 08 contains a bug affecting the display of images that the user has marked as "hidden." Specifically, when the user toggles the View-Hidden Photos menu option, the Library-Events thumbnail view does not refresh quickly or reliably to show or hide Events containing "hidden photos."
    Sometimes all "hidden" photos remain visible when they should be hidden.
    Sometimes all "hidden" photos remain INvisible when they should be visible.
    This affects the Event thumbnail "key photo" if this photo was designated as hidden.
    This also affects any hidden Event photos when the user "skims" over an Event thumbnail to preview its contents.
    The issue is isolated to Events thumbnails. The problem does not exist:
    a) while browsing thumbnails inside a specific Event.
    b) while browsing photos in Library-Photos.
    c) while browsing photos in an Album.
    _*"Fixes" that do NOT work:*_
    Software updates... I have the latest version of OSX 10.5.2 and the latest version of iPhoto 08, including all the recent security and graphics system updates as of 02/16/2008.
    Maintenance... The issue is NOT resolved by rebuilding the database, rebuilding icons, or deleting the iPhoto preferences file. The issue can be reproduced in a separate user account after creating a new event in an otherwise empty iPhoto database.
    After much tinkering around, the following is the closest I've come to a
    _*TEMPORARY WORKAROUND:*_
    To *NOT DISPLAY* hidden images, go to the View menu and make sure Hidden Photos *is not* checked. Restart iPhoto, and the hidden images should now be invisible.
    To DISPLAY hidden images, go to the View menu and make sure Hidden Photos is checked. While the hidden images are now visible elsewhere, they may still be invisible in Events thumbnails, so restart iPhoto, and then wait about 10 seconds for the Events view to refresh with all the hidden thumbnail images now visible.
    If after carefully reading this you feel you have a definitive solution, please post a reply with your suggestions. Otherwise, please post to confirm if you can reproduce the problem on your computer running iPhoto 08 on Leopard. If so, please also file an official bug report with Apple. The more people report this, the faster we'll get it fix.

    My Acrobat Pro 9 has also this bug. I am using XP SP2. I have reported this bug at Adobe web site many times. I wrote to the Adobe customer care. I wrote about this on many different forums and I was hopping an update with this bug fixed. I installed all updates till now bu the problem still exists. I do not know why Adobe is not caring about this stupid bug. It is really, really annoying. In my experience with Adobe Acrobat for about 10 years, Acrobat version 9 is the worst version I ever worked with. There are a lot of glitches and bugs in it, expecially with fonts, web version creation, password protection encryption etc etc.
    If you find any fix please post back on this forum.

  • Calendar icon displayed but there is no event

    Hi, my LG Extravert shows the calendar icon indicating that there is an event for the current day even when there is no event for that day.  Since it doesn't do this if there is no event the following day. I think I may have set it to show the calendar icon the day before an event but I can't find that setting anywhere.
    Anybody know where that setting is or some other reason why it's behaving this way?
    Thanks

    Hi Michelle, 
    Thanks for the  reply.  I'm talking about the gray bar that shows alerts at the bottom of the home screen, above the icons for mail, phone, contacts, etc.  For instance, if I have it set to vibrate only then there's a little icon of a vibrating phone.  If I have it set to ring the icon is not there.  Likewise if I miss a call, an icon appears in the bar.  If no missed calls then no icon.  If I tap on the bar I get a list of alerts showing, e.g., 0 new messages, 0 new voice mail, 2 calendar events, etc.
    So my issue is that sometimes the little calendar icon is displayed on the gray bar but the list of alerts shows 0 calendar events for the day.  It's a little confusing.  So I'm wondering why this is happening.
    Thanks,

  • IPod Classic calendar display bug

    I just bought an iPod Classic (Version 2.0.5).  When viewing calendar events (synced from my iMac's Calendar) on the iPod Classic, any text longer than the width of the iPod screen does not wrap to the next line, and instead just disappears off the side of the screen.
    What's up with that?  My old iPod Photo didn't have this problem.  Wrapping text to the screen width seems like should be a very basic issue to have done right.  Here's an example of what it's doing:
    The Calendar event on the iMac (10.8.5):
    How the same event appears on the iPod Classic:
    Is there something I'm doing wrong, or is this an embarassing Apple bug?

    iPod Classic alarm has never worker reliably!
    "Geniuses" & phone support are clueless and disempowered to do anything about it. Apple doesn't seem to read these posts.
    You must restore your iPod to version 1.1.1 then reset your iPod and leave it alone for the alarm to go off. Problem is, resetting will loose any changes you recently made to the alarm. Seems alarm will not play a song if you are on pause. Alarm is not triggering a high level interrupt and playing no matter what is going on. Maybe apple programmer think this is a "feature" that alarm won't play a song if another song is cued.
    Please post feedback and tell programmers that alarm still doesn't work in v1.1.1 and we want it to fire off the player list no matter what is going on.
