Chaging a group of event's category/calendar

How can I change a group of events in one calendar/category to another calendar without having to do each one individually.
Somehow all my business events are now personal events and would lihe to change them all back as a group and not one-by-one.
Can this be done? ....I hope!

How do I put a scattered group of events into one calendar?

I have perhaps 60 events scattered over the past 10 months that I would like to put into a single colored calendar.
They are presently in the Home calendar.
Is there a way to do this en bloc without having to assign each event seperately?

No, Pages doens't have "shrink to fit". What I do is first cut down the margins to enlarge the text area a bit. If that doesn't do it, I Command-A to select all the text and start decreasing the text size a point at a time. When the last line pops onto the first page, you're done.

After syncing and updating my iphone my iCalendar on my computer lost most of my information. Including wiping out an entire calendar group. When trying to readd the calendar group it won't let me add events to my calendar under that category.

After syncing and updating my iphone my iCalendar on my computer lost most of my information. Including wiping out an entire calendar group. When trying to readd the calendar group it won't let me add events to my calendar under that category. A message pops up that says: "You can't add events or to do items to a calendar group. Select an individual calendar in the calendar list, then create your events or to do items." Any help here would be greatly appreciated! I would like to either retrieve the old information or find a way to add the category back in to start over. Thanks in advance!

hi i had the same problem today when i updated my itunes to latest version. however, i have just found my songs in the 'itunes media' folder. this was accessed through 'my music' then keep clicking through until you find itunes media and all my library songs were in there and i then just added these files to my library and all were restored however, i have lost all my playlists but at least my 700 songs are back. very dissapointed with apple that they have let this happen with their latest update, the previous version was miles better than this one . hope you find them. stevo

In ical I just added new calendars to a pre-existing calendar group, I can make events with these calendars, but not reminders, any suggestions?

Hi,
Lion has changed the way reminders (todos as was) work. They now seem to need to be in a seperate calendar.
In iCal open the File menu and select New Reminder List... and select where to put it.

Publish Calendar Group and events location lost

After publish the Calendar Group, which may contain more than one individual calendar and coded in different colors correspondingly, the published online view of the calendar group shows only one color. Is there a design fault in this? Shouldn't the published Calendar group retain the original individual calendar colors?
Also, the published calendar, individual events lost their locations. When I publish the calendar I checked the box for title and notes. There is nowhere for checking the location. Is this the reason for not publishing the location? Please correct the design. Thanks.

I'm also wondering why iCal event locations and URLs don't appear in a published (via .Mac) calendar. When I click on an event, I get Subject, Date, and Summary info (which is equivalent to the Notes field). It does not show the Location or URL field, however.
Any ideas on how to get this information on a published calendar?

Suddenly, events entered in Calendar on iPhone are not showing up in iCal or iCloud

Until late November, i had an iPhone 4s with iOS 5.   Then i got an iPhone 6 with iOS 8. As previously, when i would enter an event in the Calendar, that data would also show up in my iCal calendar and on my iCloud calendar, until the last couple of days. Now, new entries are not showing up on iCal or iCloud. I encountered the problem that my iPhone, 64G, is being backed up to the iCloud and after two backups, taking up 2.4G each, my 5G of iCloud storage was used up. I speculated that this was why my phone data stopped syncing to the other calendars on the computer and cloud, though i did not know for sure. I deleted one of the two back ups and am about to delete the other one. I have never had this problem of running out of iCloud storage on my other phone. According to Settings>iCloud>Storage, i had 89MB. But since i have deleted one of the 2.4G backups (which was "incomplete") my new entries are still not showing up in iCal and on the iCloud.
Is there a way to get this feature to work again?
Are there things i can check or uncheck in settings or in Calendar or ??   that will get this to work well as it did in iOS 5?

ckuan - thank you for replying. i am really desperate for help. I have wasted so much time on this. I was on hold with Apple support for a long time and then had a call with a rep that lasted over an hour but he didn't know anything about issues of these kinds. i was put on hold a lot while he consulted. He did agree that the data wasn't syncing from iPhone to iCloud and iCal because the iCloud storage was used up by the iPhone back ups. So he advised deleting one of them. I now have 2.4G of storage on iCloud. Am i wrong to think that should be enough?   I still ave the original complete back up (2.4g) undeleted, in case there some reason that i need it. i don't like deleting things i don't have a good understanding of.
Following your instructions, i went to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars. I then scrolled down to Calendars and at the bottom, i see where it says Default Calendar. This raised new questions for me which i will ask you/others now:
On the Default Calendar page, there is a heading that says iCloud and there is a second heading that says my gmail email address, [email protected]. Under the iCloud heading, there is a list of 8 "calendars," called Work, Family, Pets, Home, etc. Under the gmail address heading, there is only one option listed, which is my gmail username. When i went to the Default Calendar option, as i think you suggested if i understood you right, i found that the Calendar with the checkmark next to it was the gmail user name, under the gmail address heading. Presumably, this is the same setting i had on my 4s with iOS 5.
I wanted to follow your instruction to change this to iCloud as Default Calendar. but the only option i have is to choose only one of those 8 "calendars," either Work, or Pets, or Home, etc. Does this make sense?   The only reason i know for having these many different calendars was to give different colors to the different event categories. I didn't really want them to be separate calendars. i just wanted to use the color coding for type of event in my overall calendar.
I don't know why this is suddenly so complicated and confusing, after working fine for the first two or three weeks i've had the new iPhone. Suddenly, when i enter events in Calendar, it's not reaching the cloud. If this is because my gmail and/or google user name was checked as the default calendar, that was not a setting i would've recently changed. I never would have set my iPhone to only use one of the iCloud sub-calendars at my default calendars.
But right now, per your instructions, i have checked Settings>Mail.Contacts,Calendars>Calendars>Default Calendar to iCloud>Home (Home being one of my 8 sub-calendars). When i look on the Mail,Contacts,Calendars setting list, under Default calendar, it now says Home, instead of my gmail username. Just to be clear, there is no way to check iCloud on the Default Calendar page. i have tried checking it, but it's just a somewhat grayed out heading and doesn't respond to attempts to check it, it's not offered as a Calendar option. Only the various sub-calendars are offered a default calendar options, under the grayed out iCloud heading. So, i selected Home, for no particular reason. i have lots of entries under different categories.
Here is the result:   still no new entries showed up in iCloud or iCal. In January, a couple of days ago, i entered three dental appointments, for which i have always used Health as what i thought was a category (not a separate "calendar"). The color of Health events is green. The color of Home events is Blue. After changing the Default Calendar from gmail email address>user name to iCloud>Home (blue), the dental appointment in January did not show up. But when i went into the first dental appointment event>edit and changed the "calendar" to Home, it then showed up on the calendar. The other two dental appointments which were still Health did not show up.
Then, i changed the first dental appointment that is showing up in January back to Health (green). It still shows up, now, colored green, even though Home/blue is now my default calendar. But the two other dental appointments are not showing up.
Does this mean if want to use my Calendar and have the data backed up in iCloud and iCal, from now on, i need to use only one sub calendar and give up using the different color codes because iOS 8 is forcing me to choose only one sub calendar to be my whole calendar, and the only way to use different colors for different categories of events would be to first enter it as the default sub calendar (such as dental appointment>Home), and then go back and edit it into the correct sub calendar (such as changing it to the correct category, Health) to show the correct one instead of the "default" one?
Why was this made so much more difficult and complicated than it used to be? It was working normally up until a couple of days ago.
What i need, if possible, is info on what setting i can use to go back to using my gmail address user name as my default calendar, so that it can just work properly as it did before. It seems ridiculous that i am forced by iCloud to use a sub category as my default calendar and everything that isn't entered as that subcategory will not be processed in iCloud. Why does iCloud provide these sub calendar category options at all, if it's going to force people to only be able to use one of them?
What am i missing here?
Is there a setting that would enable combining all subcategories as one calendar, called iCloud, but where i could still use the different colors for different categories?

Allow users to click button and add event to their calendar?

This page:
http://ical.mac.com/WebObjects/iCal.woa/wa/default?u=judp&n=LAFCPUG.ics
Has a subscribe link that when clicked, warns me in Firefox that an external application will be launched. I am guessing it will launch iCal and place an event in my calendar.
1. Does this look like what it is going to do?
2. How is something like this setup on a website?
Thanks.

Hi
Take a look at contentseed.com

I have an event in my calendar that was sent by someone who does not work for the company anymore and I am reminded 2 times a week. How can I remove it?

I have an event in my calendar that was sent by someone that does not work for the company anymore and I am reminded 2 times a week. How do I delete it?

Tap on the event to open the event. Click the 'Edit' button in the event bubble, then press the 'Delete Event' button at the bottom of the Edit pop-up. It's a little different for events that come through Microsoft Exchange, you tap the event to bring up bubble and click the 'Details' button, and then press 'Decline' to remove the event.

Is there a way to flag events on the Calendar differently? I want to put bills in my Calendar on the days they are usually due (repeating monthly). I want to flag them somehow when they have been paid.

Is there a way to flag events on the Calendar. I want to put bills to be paid (and have them repeat monthly) on my Calendar. I would like to be able to flag them after they are paid. I tried to put them in using the "Home calendar" blue, and them change them to purple (Work Calendar) after I had paid them. The problem is that once I changed a bill from blue to purple it changed all upcoming bills for future months to purple also.

You might want to try Reminders.
Creat a Bill Pay list, add all your bills set a reminder to repeat every month and when you pay one just check them off as complete

How can I move an event in my calendar to my "completed" calendar without changing all the events in the series?

How can I move an event in my calendar to my "completed" calendar without changing all the events in the series?
As Apple has yet to upgrade iCalendar so I can check off my events as I complete them (no, I do not want to use a task list/reminder list), I want to be able to move my events to my "completed" events calendar as I complete them. The issue is that most of my events are repeating events, and it changes the entire series. How do I change only the event I clicked on using my iPhone?
Thanks

If you change anything in a repeating calendar entry it will give you the option of disconnecting it from the series. So may any random change, choose to not change the series.

Lion 10.7.2 On both mac book pro and iMac, both with Lion 10.7.2, obtain repeated iCal event notifications from calendar or address book. Cannot turn these off. They repeat several times per session and every time computer is used. How to diagnose this

Lion 10.7.2 On both mac book pro and iMac, both with Lion 10.7.2, obtain repeated iCal event notifications from calendar or address book. Cannot turn these off. They repeat several times per session and every time computer is used. How to diagnose this?

First, uninstall "SuperTV" (whatever that is) according to the developer's instructions. It isn't working and it's filling the log with noise.
If you have more than one user account, these instructions must be carried out as an administrator.
Launch the Console application.
Step 1
Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left.
Enter "BOOT_TIME" (without the quotes) in the search box. Note the timestamps of those log messages, which refer to the times when the system was booted. Now clear the search box and scroll back in the log to the last boot time when you had the problem. Post the messages logged before the boot, while the system was unresponsive or was failing to shut down. Please include the BOOT_TIME message at the end of the log extract.
Post the log text, please, not a screenshot. If there are runs of repeated messages, post only one example of each. Don’t post many repetitions of the same message. When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
PLEASE DO NOT INDISCRIMINATELY DUMP THOUSANDS OF LINES FROM THE LOG INTO A MESSAGE. If you do that, I will not respond.
Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Edit it out by search-and-replace in a text editor before posting.
Step 2
Still in Console, look under System Diagnostic Reports for crash or panic logs, and post the most recent one, if any. In the interest of privacy, I suggest you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if present (it may not be.) Please don’t post shutdownStall, spin, or hang logs — they're very long and not helpful.

HT2513 how do I share specific events on my calendar with others?

How do I share specific events on my calendar with others?

To share an entire calendar via mac and icloud you will either need a iCal server or to login with your icloud account with the computer you want the calendar on. I find the easiest way to share calendars is to sync your calendar with Google Calendar. Login to Google Calendar, under the "My Calendars" Tab on the left side, find the calendar you would like to share. Hover over it with the mouse and an upside down triangle will appear a little to the right of the calendar name. Click on the triangle and click share this calendar.

I can't add a new event to my calendar on iPhone.

I can't add a new event to my calendar on iPhone. The plus sign is greyed out and even when I try it with Siri it says "Sorry. I can't do that right now". I did my due diligence and searched all over the forums and internet and I can't fix this. There was a listing in a forum where a lady had this same symptom but it looks like toggling iCloud worked for her. Not for me. I went into Settings>iCloud and turned off Calendar and then turned it back on. Still nothing. I even went to iCloud Backup and turned it on then back off and still nothing. Anyone have any suggestions? Thanks!

See if you can go to your Calendars App and select a previous event to see what Calendar the event was added to (iCloud or Yahoo). After that is determined you can go to www.iCloud.com or calendar.yahoo.com and add the event there to see if it will populate on your device. Another troubleshooting step is deleting the iCloud account from your device and also deleting the Yahoo account. Then check to see if you can add an event without it syncing to a email. If you can then it may have just been a bug and you can add both accounts back and try adding the event again. I would also recommend only using one service to sync your Contacts, Calendars, Reminders, etc. Such as either iCloud only or Yahoo only, as using multiple accounts means your data is spread around and can be hard to isolate when something goes wrong.

PLEASE APPLE ADD COLOR TAGGING TO EVENTS!!!
Um, color tagging events has always been a feature of iCal. Go into iCal. In the upper left-hand corner it says "Calendars." Go under "File" and create a new Calendar--iCal will give it a color, but you can change that. If you do this in iCloud, you simply pick "edit" and click on the color, and you've a huge range of choices as to what color you want it to be.
So, now you've got calendars--the family events calendar (named "Family") the "Days Off" calendar and the "Appointments" calendar...each with their own color. You can see them all when you click on "calendars" there on the left-hand side. And, in your case, can create calendars for each person at your work to know when they'll be on or off work. "John's calendar" and "Susan's calendar."
You create an event, and among the choices you have (date, time, alert, notes) is one that says: "Calendar." It will show the default calendar with it's color, but offer you up and down arrows to pick a different calendar (you can change the default calendar, by the way, under preferences). You use those arrows and pick "John" calendar and the "event" of John being on-shift from 10pm-10am on December 12th appears on the calendar in orange. Create an event and give it the "Susan Off" calendar and her time off will appear in green. Give several events the "appointment" calendar and they'll all be blue (or whatever colors you've picked for these things).
Yes?
Now whether you can sync your iCal to Google and match up the colors is a whole other story. But you can--and have for as long as I can remember---color code your iCal events.
