Colored dots in calendar month view

hello,
i have an iphone and use the calendar. i have multiple calendars with assigned colors (example: red for professional, green for sport, blue for family). as i am very busy, a black dot appears in almost every day in the month view. if i want to know what i have during a specific day, i enter the day (click on it) and scroll down.
is it possible to have colored dots in the month view to represent which calendar the activity belongs to? it would be useful to get a global view of the month. for example, i want to see in the month view that i have a meeting on monday (red dot), meeting and sport on tuesday (red and green dots), etc.

At this time that is not possible.

Can I show a color bar instead of a color bullet in iCal Monthly view for all my events in all calendars?

In the Monthly view of iCal the only events that show a color bar in the event is the Birthday Calendar. All other events in all my other calendars only show a color bullet next to the event (unless I click on that event which then shows as a color bar). I would like to know if it is possible for all the calendar events to have a color bar in the monthly view instead of just that tiny color bullet.

Greetings Judith,
Before making any attempts at deleting calendar data, backup what you have just in case:
Click on each calendar on the left hand side of iCal one at a time highlighting it's name and then going to File Export > Export and saving the resulting calendar file to a logical location for safekeeping.
iCal has an automated function located in iCal > Preferences > Advanced > Delete events "X" days after they have passed. By typing in a value for days you can tell iCal to delete all events before that time frame.
Example:
Today is 4-16-2012.
If I wanted to delete all events prior to 1 year ago (4-16-2011) I would type in "365" for the number of days.
Once you type in the number of days you want kept in iCal, close the preferences and then quit iCal.
Re-open iCal and check to see if the events are gone. If not you may want to leave it open for several minutes and then quit again.
Once the events are removed go back to iCal > Preferences > Advanced > Delete events "X" days after they have passed and make sure the check mark is removed to prevent future deletion.
Hope that helps.

Do not show dots for 'free' events in the calendar month view

I wish I could.... not show dots for 'free' events in the calendar month view. For an overview of when I have hard-scheduled events in the calendar it's pretty tedious and slow to go day -by day, and other views... Instead the dot in the month view... - why does it show even "free" events? Any ideas, tips?
Thanks!

Unfortunately there is no option to disable the dots.

Change calendar month view in iOS 6.

Can calendar month view be changed in iOS 6? I want my weekend to complete the weeks as I am able to do in iCal.

I have the same problem. What happened?!?!?
This is terrible and only occurred over last few days.
If you hit magnifying glass goes to search, if you hit the computer icon goes as far as split screen.
Tried to go under general to see if calendar view options but nothing....
This is horrendous for people that have more than two items in a day ( how about the ENTIRE world)!!!
Please fix!!!

Appointment Time In Calendar Month View

Maybe I'm just missing it somewhere, but I cannot seem to find a way for the time of an appointment to show in the iPad Calendar month view.
In iCal on my mac, this is no problem. But sure would like to do it on the iPad.
Anyone know how to do that?
Thanks,

nope. as you have no doubt figured out, you have to tap on the appointment. then you will see a little pop up with the time

Continuous scrolling not working in Calendar month view

Scrolling does not work in Calendar month view. I have toggled System Preferences >General > Show scroll bars to "Always on." Still nothing in Calendar month view.
BUT, wait! Now every other app (except Calendar month view) now has the scroll bar "Always on" even though I toggled back to "Automatically based on...", then restarted my computer. I don't want to see the scroll bars all the time but now I can't hide them anywhere. It seems "Always on" amd "Automatically based on..." now do the same thing. Serious bug.
Any hints? Thanks

This is odd, but the calendar scrolling in Month view is working on my machine. It's been through various reboots - and I checked the disc (SSD) and permissions.
Seems to me that the calendar application is sensitive to the scrolling.
Also, I've been suffering from Firefox vertical scrolling stopping. The "fix" is to quit & restart Firefox. However... this scroll-crashing behaviour goes away for a few days then comes back with a vengence. Again, I've a feeling that a full reboot seems to help things.
Yet another mouse-related problem I've been having is with VMWare. These frequently interpret a single-click as a double-cliick or even triple-click. Some chatter in the VMWare forums about this too.
All of this behaviour *never* ocurred prior to the Mavericks upgrade.

Calendar: Month view Needs Daily Items on Side

This is a "problem" on N8 and E7 and X6 (as far as I have noticed)
or probably all Symbian^3 phones....The Calendar month view simply shows a table of each month with dates sorted in columns of dayOfWeek.
This view takes up the full screen space.
I would like to request this view be similar to E72
1. When user select a date in the month -> another part of the screen would display the agenda of that date.

I have the same think as I have upgraded my N97 to E7 couple weeks ago
the month view in S^3 Calendar is not forthright as that in S60 5th

Calendar Month View won't scroll up and down

This is a very minor, but strange issue with Calendar.
I can scroll up and down in Calendar month view on my MacBook Air, but on my Mac Pro, I can only switch months by clicking the" >" button or "Command+Left Arrow".
Anyone know why?
Thanks.

I'm using Yosemite on both.
I did a little research and saw some comments that mentioned that vertical scrolling works with the trackpad, but not with mouse scroll wheels... so there's that. Doesn't make sense, but it's possible.

Calendar Month View, Scrolling

In Mavericks, calendar month view, trackpad scrolling works but mousewheel doesn't. Any solution?

I had a similar problem. I have a 27" iMac (Late 2012) and after installing Mavericks, I wasn't able to scroll using my Magic Mouse in Calendar, or any broswers--Safari, Chrome, and Firefox--even after setting my scrollbars to appear "always." I also wasn't able to access Dashboard with a 2 finger swipe or Mission Control with a double tap.
I called Apple Care and told the advisor about the threads that suggested resetting the PRAM or SMC. But he suggested that before we try that, I should restart my computer while keeping the "Reopen windows when logging back in" box unchecked. It solved my problem instantly, and I haven't had trouble scrolling anywhere since!!

Calendar month view has wasted space between months, can I remove? iOS 7 iPhone

The calendar month view (both iPad and iPhone) has a gap between months eg: Jan 31 has two spaces & almost a whole line blank before Feb 1. I want the months to run sequential with no gaps. Any way of doing this?

Use a different app.
Unfortunately, there is no way to change the formatting of the built in app. Your only option is to look for a different calendar app and see if it meets your needs

Curve 9320 Any browser that shows Google Calendar month view?

Has anyone found a browser that will show the Google Calendar month view on the Curve? Here, the default browser will show Google Calendar onl in a much inferior agenda view, with no way I can see to select any other view.
Thanks.

Thanks for the response. I do have data defined. However, type is not. The specs don't seem to make it necessary to specify both, but if that helps I can. The webconsole shows one error:
Use of getPreventDefault() is deprecated. Use defaultPrevented instead. That is an error in the jquery javascript code though.
Firebug doesn't show anything in its console.
I used iframe and the behavior is exactly sthe same. I'm beginning to think this is a google calendaring issue instead.
Thanks again.

Calendar month view dots on every day...

I seem to have a dot in every day of every month in month view. I have seen pics of other folks who only have dots in the days where there is an event. So I am thinking there is something wrong with my sync.
I downloaded 7.3.1 iTunes, resynced, and even restored. Anyone else have this problem? Any ideas on how to fix it?

VOILA! Solved it. I was right, it was related to recurring appointments.
I kept going back on my calendar until I found a day that had no dot in it. Then I figured the first empty day that still showed a dot and worked backwards. I found a recurring appointment was causing the problem.
When I opened it up, I noticed that the appointment was from Mon, Feb 5 to Sun, Feb 4. It went BACK in time. It still showed as only one day, and the All Day button was ON. I changed the TO date to Feb 5 (so both FROM and TO matched), saved the appointment, and VOILA! Fixed. However, as I scrolled forward, I noticed dots started showing up in every day in the months from that point forward, and it was still fixed from that point on backwards. It turns out EVERY BIRTHDAY (every yearly recurring appointment) had this glitch. When I fixed a birthday, it fixed all the days between it and the next birthday. When I fixed them all, my Monthly view for ALL months now shows dots on days with events, and no dots on days with no event.
Sweet!

Dots Every Day in Calendar Month View

I have the dots indicating an event on every day of the monthly view in the calendar even though there aren't any events on those dates. I am syncing with Outlook 2003 on Windows XP. I have read through posts here and:
- Had some birthdays set up in the contacts but removed them
- Do not have any events where the end time is earlier than the start time
I have tried many different things including turning calendar syncing off, replacing all of the info for calendars, etc. but cannot get it fixed.
Any other suggestions? How can I delete the info on the Calendar. Turning off syncing doesn't do it. Do I need to do a full reset?
Thanks.

Thanks. Your suggestion did the trick.
I assumed it marked every date in perpetuity with a dot. I went backwards until I found a month without a dot. After a couple of dozen clicks on the back arrow, I realized if I held it down it would go faster.
Went back to 1971 and found an entry for a birth date. The interesting thing is, is that it was in October. November looked fine and then in December, the dots started occurring. Deleted the entry and everything looks good again.
Thanks.

Publishing a calendar to dot mac in month view

Is there a way to publish a calendar to dot mac so that it shows up in month view instead of week view? Perhaps a modification of the URL ....
Thanks in advance

Yes, I know you can change the view once the page loads. I was just hoping you could display the month view as a default. Maybe something will change when Leopard come out next week.

Change dot colours on month view???

Hi,
Is it possible to change the dot colours on the month view of the calendar so it represents the sync'd calendars?
It would be better if it showed a coloured dot under the day's number relevent to the calendar that has an appointment
+ie. if you have 4 calendars with an appointment on each calendar, it would show 4 colour coded dots under the number.+
I understand room under the numbers is limited, so this would be best kept to 1 dot per calendar, not one dot per calendar appointment.

Hi,
The window positions are kept in your preferences.
Quit iCal and try moving the com.apple.iCal.plist file in User>Library>Preferences to your Desktop, then re-start iCal. The preference file will be re-created with the default settings, this will not affect the contents of your calendars.
best wishes
