Editing one of recurring events

I am using Calendar in iOS X 10.9.4.  I have set up a recurring event, such as a monthly meeting.  While attending the meeting I want to edit the event; change the calendar from "Appointment" to "Work".  I also want to add meeting notes.  When I do this it changes both the current and all future events.  Is there a way to just change the current event, and leave the future recurring events unchanged?

On the Mac I usually go to the event and double click, or on the iPhone select the event.  Making a change usually changes all the events (the one selected and all future events) which is not what I want to do...I just want to change the event for the day I have selected and leave the others unchanged.

  • Calendar - when I want to edit a monthly recurring event but only for one month I am no longer given the box to update only that date.

    Adding to Alan's answer:
    One of the problems that comes with these tricks for variable-rate acquisition is being able to match up sample data with the time that it was sampled. 
    If you weren't using either of E-series board's counters, there is a nifty solution to this!  You'll be using 1 of the counters to generate the variable-rate sampling clock.  You can then use the 2nd counter to perform a buffered period measurement on the output of the 1st counter.  This gives you a hw-timed measurement of every sampling interval.  You would need to keep track of a cumulative sum of these periods to generate a hw-accurate timestamp value for each sample.
    Note:  the very first buffered period measurement is the time from starting the 2nd counter until the first active edge from the 1st.  For your app, you should ignore it.

  • TS3569 On my iPad 2, one particular recurring event keeps duplicating itself. I delete the duplicate and it reappears a day later. Help.

    On my iPad 2, one particular recurring event keeps duplicating itself. I delete the duplicate and it reappears a day later. Help.

    Do you use MobileMe and an iPhone? If yes, do this in the following order:
    Mac:
    (1) back up the applications giving you problems
    iPhone
    (1) Open settings, then open "mail, contacts, calendars"
    (2) Open .Mac account
    (3) Turn OFF the applications that are causing problems
    (4) When you turn off on of the applicatios, a red sign "stop syncing" will appear. Press it. A msg will appear "turning off xxx"
    (5) Get out of settings
    (6) Don't do anything for about 20 mins. Don't touch your iPhone or your Mac. (syncing needs time to settle down)
    After 20 minutes...
    Mac:
    (1) Open each application that is giving you problems. Fix errors. Back up.
    (2) Do this for each application
    iPhone
    (1) Open settings, then open "mail, contacts, calendars"
    (2) Open .Mac account
    (3) Slide switch to ON for each app you turned off; there won't be a msg
    (4) Get out of settings
    (5) Via MobileMe, syncing will start again.
    Wait about 20 minutes, again. You should see all in order after that. At least, that was my experience.

  • Delete one ical recurring event - automator

    Hi,
    I am wanting to make a small Automator workflow that will allow me to delete only certain events from within a recurring event chain. I use iCal for my school timetable (spread over two separate calendars - separate from all of my other events)  and have it recurring every week. I would like this workflow to delete the timetable from the holiday periods but delete only those events that lie within the holidays.
    i have created a workflow that does what I want initially, but it interrupts the recurring event and therefore deletes all of my timetable in the two specified calendars after the holiday period that I specify. I use three different steps, shown by the images below (in order):
    For example, if in step 2, I put in the date "after 2/7" and "before 5/7", I want it to delete all events on the two calendars from step one between 2/7 and 5/7. Instead, this is deleting all events on those two calendars after 2/7 because the recurring event is deleted.
    How can I get this to do what I want?
    Is there a way to get Automator to use the "Delete only this event" option that appears in a prompt if deleting a recurring event from directly within iCal?
    Cheers.

    Something you might try is, Right click on the event in your calendar and select "get info".  In the get info screen set the "repeat" to none.  End that screen and go back to the calendar and right click select "cut".  Should be gone for good.

  • ICal crashes when editing one instance of recurring event

    Maybe it is just my imagination, but this started just as MobileMe was released.
    If I edit or delete one instance of a recurring event, iCal crashes about 90% of the time. I'm not sure why it does work in a very few cases. Usually it will show as "Not responding" in my activity monitor and start using all memory. When I force quit, the log files include the following:
    Command: iCal
    Path: /Applications/iCal.app/Contents/MacOS/iCal
    Version: 3.0.4 (1263)
    Build Version: 3
    Project Name: iCal
    Source Version: 12630000
    Parent: launchd [458]
    Any tips? My iCal is nearly unusable as most of my events are recurring, and editing events is a necessary tool. Let me know if I should post more of the error log.

    Hi,

  • Help, Recurring Event WON'T Edit or Delete

    I've read the threads about the slow iCal, or SBOD, or not responding. I've tried deleting the plists, backing up then restoring the calenders. I've made all my recurring events end at a date instead of never.
    I think I have the problem narrowed down to one event. If I have the calender that this event is in deselected, iCal runs like a champ, no SBOD, no slow downs, just like the good old days. If I have that calender selected, even if it's the only one, SBOD with every input, takes to long to change month or anything. If I try to edit, or delete this event SBOD for as long as you can wait. If it happens to go away, nothing has happened. "The end on date" still has no were to input the date or if you tried to delete it it's still there.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated. I have installed all updates so I am up to date (kinda redundant)
    Thanks again.

    Ferd, You are a life saver. In  response to you suggestions.
    1) Folder did not exist on my HD. Must have been deleted at some past update.
    2) tried and tried again to no avail. Even deleted the iCal folder in HD/Users/Name/Library/Caches and it still didn't help.
    3)And the angels rejoiced. Had to go back to April 2001 and it took about 3 Min. of the SBOD before it happened but Waa-Lah. The evil event is dead. No spinning ball, no freeze ups, and even with all my calendars selected (10 of them) I can switch between months, events, days, views, whatever just like I used to.
    For anyone reading this that is having a slowdown issue with iCal, It was 1 repeated event out of many that caused the problem. I knew which one it was because if I selected it in Month View I got the SBOD for about 20 sec. every time. If I selected another event, that event highlighted immediately.
    Good Luck All and
    Thanks Again.

  • How do I edit recurring event in iCal

    Pre-Lion, a pop up screen asked whether to edit all events or only the selected occurence.  How do I edit all of the recurring events in Lion?

    Double click the recurring event and edit it - you should get this:

  • In Calendar, deleting one event in a recurring event deletes everything...

    When I delete one event in a recurring event, calendar deletes the entire event, both past and future. I am clicking the option "delete only this event," and the rest of the recurring event doesn't disappear on my iphone 4 (linked through iCloud). The strange thing is that the rest of the recurring event comes back after leaving the calendar alone for a day or two. Is it a problem with calendar or iCloud? Thanks for your help.

    Hi,
    Personal opinion, the issue may be related to Calendar updating in another user side who has permission to this shared calendar.
    To narrow down the issue, please do the following changes:
    1. Confirm if the shared calendar permission is set for Reviewer or higher permission for this user.
    2. Please remove this shared calendar from Calendar list and add it back to check whether the issue persists.
    3. Change Outlook to Online mode and check whether the deleted single occurrences of recurring meeting is shown in calendar or not.

  • Annoying bug: Recurring events ends one day to soon

    Hi!
    My calendar is stored in an Microsoft Exchange account on Office365. In order to make it available to my wife, I publish it using the iCalendar format (ICS). However, with iCalendar all recurring events ends one day short. An event recurring three times only occurs twice and so on.
    When I sync my iPad och iPhone with both the Exchange account and the ICS, it shows up correctly for the Exchange calendar but wrong for the ICS. It is the same calendar, it just ends up in different ways on my iOS device. As the difference is clearly visible, I can't consider this to be nothing but a bug.
    Anyone with a workaround?
    Best regards,
    Jonas

    Hi,

  • ICal hanging when trying to edit/delete recurring event

    I have a calendar entry in iCal that recurs every week through the end of the year. I know this particular entry is causing issues in iCal so I have tried deleting it and/or editing it, and every time I do, it hangs iCal. Any thoughts/ideas? I do sync to a Palm using MissingSync but this calendar entry does not show up on my Palm so I can't delete it there. Any ideas? I would just like to delete the entry.

    Wow, just found the answer - YzGy posted this link <http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=7449164&#7449164> and I did as instructed and I'm back up and running. For some reason, this recurring event was on my calendar 12,300 times.

  • Editing Events - Original event still appears as well as edited one

    Every time I edit an event on ICal I end up with two events.  The original one and the edited one.  Even after I delete the original event, it somehow reappears.  Does anyone know why this is happening?

    I had a similar problem after upgrading to 10.7.2. Every time I added an event a New Event would appear. I tried deleting the New Event but it kept coming back.
    Here is what I did to fix my problem. First make copies of all these files as I am just a regular user of Mac.
    1. Close     your iCal
    2. Go     to /Users/<Your Username>/Library/Calendars
    Delete the Calendar Cache file and Calendar Sync Changes Folder
    *****Do not delete your other files as this is your data
    3. Go to /Users/<Your Username>/Library/Caches
    I deleted the folder com.apple.iCal
    4. Go to /Users/<Your Username>/Library/Preferences
    I deleted followiong files:
    com.apple.iCal.plist
    com.apple.iCal.plist.lockfile
    iCalExternalSync.plist
    iCalExternalSync.plist.lockfile
    5. Start     iCal. All of these files got re-created for me.
    Everything     should import back into your calendar and you hopefully will be     fine. Again make copies of all these files before trying what I did. Worst case copy the old ones back.

  • Droid Incredible - Move one instance of a recurring event

    Is there any way to move one instance of a recurring event?  I am trying to take a recurring event on a given day and move just that one

    I originally did all of my recurring events and calendar stuff from gmail/calendar. It then synced to phone.
    You can click on the particular event and choose to delete the specific one. You can do that on either the phone or online calendar.

  • Outlook recurring events not showing in calendar

    Syncing my iPhone to MS Exchange.
    I see in Outlook 2010 calendars, all the recurring events I have.
    In particular, I see some birthdays in the current week, but on my iPhone 4s, running IOS 5.1, I only see a couple.
    More explicitly, there are 2 birthdays on the day that I am writing this question, only one shows on the iPhone.
    Also, one for tomorrow does not show, nor does an anniversary 2 days after that.
    There is no obvious reason for some to show and others to not show.
    Additionally, birthdays do not show up in 'Day' view, only in 'List' and 'Month' view.
    I have tried deleting my Exchange account and re-adding it.
    I have changed all birthdays from 'Private' to 'Normal' confidentiality
    I have tried editing events which don't show on the iPhone, in an attempt to make them appear.
    I can see appointments I create on the iPhone, in Outlook within seconds.
    I delete a test appointment in Outlook and it will disappear on the iPhone.
    I am at a loss.
    An explanation, or preferably, a fix, would be appreciated.
    EDIT:
    I found that 'recurring events which are ALL Day Events' do not show on the iPhone.
    However, I can search for the event and find it, even though it does not display!

    Yes, all of my recurring events that do sync were created years ago in Outlook and I had no problem syncing them to my Blackberry Bold way back when. Initially when I got my iphone 4, everything synced both ways and then this year I got an iPad and intitally everything synced with it via iTunes/outlook with no problem. I've only noticed this problem within the last month or so and it drove me crazy. I reset both my ios devices but I refuse to uninstall and reinstall Outlook or iTunes. I've seen tons of posts on here that say it afffects the cloud, exchange servers and itunes so it's not just us. I've sent feedback to Apple and received no response. Others have too. Apple is aware of it and doesn't have a clue what to do about it. It now affects other events for me so I'm thinking maybe it has to do with default reminders and other things between Outlook and the ios devices. Maybe and update to iTunes or ios6 will change that, who knows. I still love my iPhone and would't go back to Blackberry; it's just way to slow for me.

  • Deleting a recurring event in iCal

    Situation; iphone 5 recurring event wont delete.  looking at same calendar on a synced PC (work) the event is not there at all. 
    If you are having trouble deleting a recurring event in iCal try this:
    on your iphone change the event "alert" or "show as" setting on one of the events in the future.  The event that wasn't showing on the PC outlook calendar magically shows up now.  delete it from the PC by opening it and choosing the X delete for all occurances (if its asks).
    Now open the event in iCal and you should see the Accept Maybe Decline option at the bottom - choose decline.  you may have to do this on several dates, but that should delete the event.
    Hope this helps.

    pedfogog,
    ... or whoever may find this post in need of assistance as I was.
    I just had this same problem and successfully deleted ALL event (past and future)instances by :
    1. Click on any instance of the event in the calendar
    2. Select "Delete" from the iCal toolbar "Edit" menu.
    3. The iCal propmt asked me to choose to delete all or just the one instance.
    4. Naturally, select to "Delete all occurrences"
    I am running OS 10.6.8   iCal 4.0.4
