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.

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.

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!

3 Dots in Corner Of Day Box in Month View

When in the month view of iCal several days of every month have 3 periods/dots in the upper left hand corner of the day box that can't be deleted. Ever see this and can they be erased.
Thanks

My problem is related, and I would like to display these. Is there an override? There seems to be at least 1/2 of each daily box empty.
ical: show all-day events on monthly view?
I use iCal to track rentals in a couple of vacation apartments I manage. I have separate calendars for each, and more for personal items, etc., and a typical event would cover 7 days as an all-day event. When I checkmark 4 calendars, only 3 events will show up in the monthly view, the other(s) being designated as 3 dashes instead of the info (---). Is there a way to override this so I can quickly see what is booked for an entire month? Switching back and forth to weekly view doesn't cut it, when I need to answer availability questions quickly.

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.

View Outlook Calendar on iPhone In Day, Week, Or Month Views--NOT As A List

I apologize in advance if this has been asked already but couldn't find the answer after an extensive search.
My question is, after syncing my Outlook calendar to the iPhone, how can I view my appointments other than as a list in the iPhone? I would like to view my appointments in either day, week, or month views as opposed to only knowing what my next two or three appointments are. To me it just seems like a simple setting I'm overlooking somewhere. I appreciate any help you can afford
Thanks in advance,
-V5

*iPhone calendar views are a joke!*
My 90's Palm Vx had far more usable views via Pimlico Software. The gray scale display with poor resolution was able to show one or even two weeks with appointment texts.
What does iPhone have? List view is the best there is. One sees all appointments with only just scrolling. Day view is terrible. The whole day should be visible without scrolling for it to be at least somewhat efficient. Now one has to first select a day with arrows and after that scroll thru the day and after that select another day and scroll again. No way. Month view is very poorly designed! The grid takes way too much space and who decided to put the appointment list in the bottom of the screen when one's index finger blocks it if sliding thru days in the grid!!! Oh man!!! Unlock the landscape view and please make the grid a little bit smaller and please place the appointment list on the left or at least on the right side. And make its font way smaller! No point in seeing two appoinments without scrolling.
iPhone's wonderful screen would be able to show one or two weeks with written appointments in a list like manner especially landscape. I mean seven columns titled Mo-Su and all appointments listed in that day's column.
Hopefully SDK will let someone else do it if Apple won't.
And we have to get to copy appointments and paste them to other days also. I am spending 30 min writing the same info one at a time to our monthly plan. Everyone else is already having a cup of coffee.

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.

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!!!

Multi day events in Month View.

Multi day events in month view only display on the first day. Checking all day event fixes this, but none of my multi day events are in fact all day. If I sync with my iphone, it does mark both days on the multi day event in month view.
In week view they display correctly, but I like to have the month drawn out.
I am surprised to come across this hang up. Other calendars I have used always displayed such events across the month view.
Is this a bug or lack of feature?
R

Bug or design flaw?
Try setting it as a recurring event (yeah, I know, it's not a great solution, but it gets the job done)

ICal multi-day (not all day) event in Month view not displayed over days

What is it when I have an event that starts on a Wednesday and 4:00pm and goes to Friday at 6:00pm (not clicked as an All Day Event), (in Month view) the only day showing the event is the first day?! Shouldn't it show it over the course of the 3 days!? Outlook does that (I can't believe I just referenced Outlook in an Apple Discussion... in a positive light no less). Is it a setting?

Yes, Apple any help for this would be great. The only way I've come to work around is to use multiple events. So for a flight out of town would be one event, and the return another. I would create a third event then for the actual time out of town. There must be some way to easily fix this.

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

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
