ICal multi day event not showing on screen

Help ! When using iCal, I am stumped as to how to make multi day events show up on the appropriate days .... I enter an event for say 3 days, on my screen I see it in iCal only on day one, it does not show up on day two or three however when I print my calendar, it does print on all the appropriate days. Is there a setting to change so it shows up on my screen on all the days like it does when I print ? Thanks!

Hi there,
So, that's in Week or Month view you are talking about?? ... it only shows on the first day?
Probably stating the obvious, but I'm assuming you are ticking the "All Day" box when you enter the Event?
If you don't, but leave a time, say 10pm, and have a start date of the 18th and an end date of the 20th, say - it'll display only on the 18th (albeit with the 10pm time slot - not as an all day Event), but will print on all three days - ie 18/19/20th

Multi-day events only showing up on first day of event in year view

There are several things about iCal that I find annoying (makes me miss my old Palm PDA sometimes), such as being able to set my own default meeting times, meetings being defaulted to all-day, no way to connect a contact to the event without having to invite them to join (my old Palm did this and it was a very useful tool). Each of these has many discussions already on these topics with a solution (except adding a contact to an event), such as simply typing in the meeting time when you setup the event.
However, I can't find a discussion on the following question, and therefore no solution. Hope someone out there knows the answer:
Why do Multi-day events only show up on the first day of the event in year view, and is there a way to change it?
Thanks in advance!

Greetings,
Perhaps I'm not setting up my events as you are but I see a color for each day of my multi-day event.
My steps:
1. Add a multi-day event to iCal:
2. Switch to Year view and observe the matching date range (26th - 29th):
Suggestions:
Make sure you have all your updates installed (Apple > Software Update).
Toggle the "all day" check box for the events in question and see if that makes the events show up in Year view.
If that doesn't help, please provide a screen shot of the edit window of the event in question so we can see how you have it configured:
Cheers!

Old All-Day events not showing in Calendar List View

Reviewing events in my Calendar on the iPhone and have noticed that All Day Events that are older than one year do not show in the "List" view
For example, I have all my holidays in a calendar called "Vacation". Month and Day view list holidays from earlier than today (09 Sept 2008) properly, however list view shows nothing. Timed events (e.g. day trips) in the same calendar show.
Similarly no Birthdays appear in the past. I can see a case for Birthdays being omitted in the past, but not other events (e.g. wanting to know exactly when you went to that all day wedding last summer)

I have this same exact problem. For me, past events that have a specific time associated with them show up in List view; however, past events that are all day events only show in List view once in a blue moon only. Apple support has been absolutely clueless about this issue. They just tell me it's weird and they have no explanation. It's unbelievably annoying though.

Help - iCal All Day Events Not Syncing on Exchange 2007

When I enter an all day event in iCal it does not sync to my Touch Pro 2 through Exchange 2007. I see the event in OWA and also in Entourage through Sync Services but it simply does not come onto the TP2. All day events entered in Entourage or OWA DO show up in the TP2. Strange but very frustrating because I like to enter my events using Launchbar which works with iCal only.
I don't think I had this problem with 10.5
Greatly Appreciate Help.

I've noticed a similar problem. Previously, "all day" events listed correctly in both iCal (on my Mac) and in the calendar on my iPhone. Now, all day events on the iPhone cover the entire day, set to a time of 12 am to 12 pm.
I'm not sure if this is related to 10.6.4 or my recent update to iOS4 on the phone.

All day events not showing up in iCal

On my iMac I cannot enter an all day event in iCal. All day events entered via my iPhone or Mobile Me also do not show up on the iMac. Just upgraded to Lion, no problem before this!

Hi Linda,
Open iCal and from the View menu check that Show All-Day Events is checked.

Converted Outlook to iCal - All day events messed up

I converted Outlook calendar via O2M and imported it into iCal on iMac. The all-day events are blocking up time from 12:00am to 12:00am rather than appearing in the all-day box at the top of the day. When I click on the event, the "Make All-Day Event" selection is grayed out and I cannot select it. The events are blocking up and crowding my calendar and I can't see anything. I don't want to delete and re-enter all events. Just bought the iMac a week ago. What's the fix?

Found this on another topic and it fixed my problem:
Re: AppleScript to make All-Day Events?
Feb 2, 2006 1:28 AM (in response to Roger Barre)
Hi Roger, This is fairly straighforward in Applescript. You could try something like the script below. Depending on the number of events in the calendar it's possible this could take time. The script should let you know when it's done. Just in case you don't like the result. Backup, just in case. In iCal go to File>Back up Database... and save your calendars. --Copy blue text into Script Editor (Applications > Applescript > Script Editor) , press Run and follow prompts. If you are happy with the results you could save it as an Application.
tell application "iCal"
-- Select calendar
set myCal to first calendar whose title is (item 1 of (choose from list (title of (every calendar) as list) with prompt "Choose calendar"))
-- Loop through events
repeat with myEvt in events of myCal
-- Get start & end times of event
set {startTime, endTime} to {start date of myEvt, end date of myEvt}
-- Check start and end hours & mins
set hoursAndMins to {hours of startTime, minutes of startTime, hours of endTime, minutes of endTime}
-- See if start and end time are midnight, if so set to all day.
if hoursAndMins is equal to {0, 0, 0, 0} then set allday event of myEvt to true
end repeat
display dialog "Done all day events"
end tell Best wishes John

Long "All-Day" Event not showing in 2nd month

All-Day events that begin before the last week in a month do not show up in the next month.
Example: 3/29/2008 to 4/17/2008 (OK)
3/27/2008 to 4/17/2008 (event doesn't show at all in April)

I see the same problem.
Shows properly on the web version if you publish.
I am also seeing iCal crash A LOT when entering all day events that cover long periods repeated every year (never end). Entering data for vegetable planting dates for my area; e.g. peppers - March 25 - April 10 set as all day repeated yearly never ending.
Reported to Apple; hopefully, both will be addressed in a future update....

Calendar/All Day Event NOT SHOWING ANYMORE!!

First of all this is the reason why I bought a BB. When I got the phone in Sept all of my All Day Events would pop up first thing in the morning and not go away until I dismissed them. Now, don't know what has happened my all day events do not pop up anymore! This is really really bad. For unorganized people like myself this option was the sole reason why I bought this phone and I need to have this back!
And also, how frustrating is it that they don't have a customer support number where you can talk to an expert to resolve your problem. Thank god I am slightly computer savy.
Can anyone please help!!!
Thanks

I also lost most of my birthdays that I laboured to set up in my address book contacts. Can anyone please help on these disappearing calendar events?

E71 - Full day events not showing in homescreen...

Hi all
as the title of my post says, full day events are not showing in the homescreen calendar before they start, but they are displayed once they have started...
this is a very weird behavior !

Sorry I posted this in Mavericks. I can't find where to move it, so please close it. Will repost in correct group.

Month view does not show Multi Day events

I know there has been a few post about this subject, but I've found no answer. Is there a fix for this problem? Multi Day events (Not All Day) only show up on the first day in month view (fine in week view). BUT ... if you print the month view the event shows on all the days, weird. I think I am going to be forced to go to a Microsoft product if this can't be resolved. I is too easy to double book appointments if you think that day is clear. Please help.

I've just come across this most dangerous of flaws. I wonder how Apple staff manage multiple-day events without missing anything.
I've submitted the following to iCal Feedback:
http://www.apple.com/feedback/ical.html
Events (not all-day) starting on one day and finishing on another do not show up properly in iCal month view. This is because you only show the start time, which is really confusing when trying to organise diaries.
The iPhone month list view would be a model to sort this out, showing start time on the first day, "Ends" on the last day and "All Day" on intermediary days.
Please sort this out as this is where Outlook really beats Mac.

When I get an ICS from Outlook that is a multi-day event it populates my iCal as a single day and since I am not the owner I cannot edit the ICS.

When I get an ICS from Outlook Express (Office is PC based) that is a multi-day event, it populates my iCal as a single day and since I am not the owner I cannot edit the ICS. I have to delete it and send a "decline notice" to the sender and re-enter it so I can put in multiple day events. Help!

If you are running Tiger, you don't have time machine.
You need to get something like SuperDuper! or Carbon Copy Cloner (sorry, I don't have a handy link for CCC but you can Google it to get their site) to make a clone of your drive on the external and then do incremental backups. The free versions do a lot and you can upgrade to the full-service versions for small change if you need more. The one time I used SuperDuper! for cloning a volume it worked just fine.
(My backup application is the last PPC capable version of Retrospect, which does a credible job, or has over the past ten-twelve years.)

Outlook 2007 and iPhone Calendar All-Day events not displaying correctly

I recently took the 3.1.3 update for my iphone and have since noticed that syncing all-day events from my Outlook 2007 exchange environment to the iphone is not working correctly. The all-day flag on the iphone is not being checked, thus the event shows up all over the calendar instead of just a single item at the top of the calendar. This only happens for multi-day events. Single-day, all day events show fine. Here's the tests I did:
1. Created a single day, all-day event for tomorrow June 18 in Outlook 2007. Made sure that they all-day checkbox was checked in Outlook. Waited for the sync and it shows up fine in iPhone calendar. There is a single line at the top of the "Day" view that lists the event. When you look at the event, the all-day checkbox is checked in iphone calendar.
2. Next I updated the event in Outlook to make it a multi-day, all day event. I changed the end date to be June 19. I made sure to leave the all day checkbox checked in Outlook. Once synced, the all day checkbox on the iphone is now unchecked and as a result the event takes up the whole "Day" view for both days.
Is there a solution for this? Only seen this since I updated to the 3.1.3 firmware. All events show up the right way in Outlook. It is only the iPhone calendar that shows them wrong. Thanks in advance for any help.

Same problem here.
All Day events entered in Outlook 2007 on my work machine that have ALL DAY checked and are only on that ONE Day, seem to come out fine. If however we have an all-day event that goes multiple days, then it enters it on my iphone taking up 00:00-00:00, which is very messy if you have two ALL-day envents on the same day (when tracking different personnel for example).
I have noticed the real annoying item though is that changing it on my iPhone 4 directly, that once I put in the right start and end dates, and choose ALL DAY, about 5 seconds later it actually changes the START DAY! This makes you go back to change the start day, then it changes the end day so you change that, and now finally all sorted.
This NEVER happened on my iPhone3G that I have used with Excahgne for over two years now. Only since I got my iPhone4.
PLEASE Apple, fix this!!!!

Ical crashes when event not all day over several days

ical shows event across several days when "all day" box checked. when "all day" box unchecked, and specified times span several days, event only shows on first day?

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.
