Error in adding holidays to Project Calendar

When I add a 2 week xmas holiday to the calendar in Project, it shifts my project out 15 years. I did individual days once a year. Here are the lines that seem to make the jump.

Any suggestions on what I'm doing wrong?

Hi,
Which version and Service Pack do you use?
Is the calendar applied to a task, a resource or the project?
Have you checked that the calendar is correctly configured?
Can you reproduce the issue ony any task? Any project?
Would it be possible that by error you splitted the task with your mouse and that the cursor went away to the far right of the Gantt chart so the task was extended to 2029?
Hope this helps,

  • How do I add Holidays to my Calendar Server?

    How do I add Holidays to my Calendar Server?
    <p>
    Adding Holidays to your Calendar Server is done via the Netscape
    Calendar Client by going to the Edit|Holidays pull-down menu.
    This option can only be accessed by those users who have been given
    the admin rights to add holidays.
    If you wanted to give "John Smith" admin rights to add holidays on
    a Calendar Server with a node id of 10000, you would do the
    following:
    o Login as 'root' or 'unison' to your Calendar Server.
    o Change directories to /users/unison/bin.
    o Run the command:
    uniadmrights -e "S=Smith/G=Bob" -hday -n 10000
    Now the user John Smith can add/delete/modify holidays on the
    Calendar Server.

    Include birthday in your contacts using the Contacts app.  Then in Calendar go to the list of calendars (touch the red Calendars at the mid bottom of the screen), scroll down until you find the Birthday calendar, and touch it so that it has a tick mark beside it.  Not only will the birthday show up every year, it will even tell you how old they are!

  • Error when manually adding user to project workspace

    I am currently using Project Server 2010.  I have a requirement for Business Users to have access to the project workspaces in Sharepoint but not be users of the PWA.  Similar to as it is outlined in this Microsoft Documentation (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc197668(v=office.14).aspx) 
    There might be a circumstance where you want to grant people who are not members of the project access to the project workspace site. Anyone assigned to the Web Administrator group can create new users for a project workspace site. In addition to the
    four groups that were mentioned earlier, there are four default SharePoint Server 2010 groups. They are as follows:
    Full Control   Has all personal, site, and list permissions.
    Design   Can edit lists, document libraries, and pages in the Web site.
    Contribute   Can view pages and edit list items and documents.
    Read   Can view pages, list items, and documents.
    I have added the user to the Contributor group but when they try to contribute to the space, ie add documents or an issue/risk, they recieve an error, similar to as is documented in the following article (http://pwmather.wordpress.com/2011/07/11/manually-adding-users-to-project-workspace-project-site-in-projectserver-ps2010-ps2007-epm/) 
    What has been identified in this article makes sense.  I am just wondering why Microsoft documentation states that it can be done.
    Any thoughts?

    Chris,
    The Microsoft article says, users who are not part of the project. It does not say not part of project server. 
    However, as far as I can remember, this scenario could work if the "Synchronization" is turned off between Project Server and Project Sites. I will run a test and confirm, later today.

  • Global Calendar Changes Affecting Project Calendars

    How do you prevent Global Calendar changes from changing the Project Calendars? When Project Calendars are created, they are copied from another calendar, say Global Calendar. Now, when the Global Calendar is updated or changed it changes my Project Calendar. How do you prevent this from occurring?

    If the change to the Global Calendar is valid, it IS going to impact all local schedules. The Global Calendar is the basic Enterprise assumption. It is what contracts are written around.
    If the projects are using a Global Calendar they are going to forecast the calendar, but a resource's calendar can allow performing a task anytime in the operational plan. That is the nature of high level settings and local or operational variants. Project execution is not nailed to the Global Calendar, Your original schedule forecasted from the Global structure and was accepted. If experience leads you to make change in the Global Calendar, that is reality. You will forecast the added knowledge gained from experience and set in the Global Calendar. If it creates Risk in the existing projects, deal with it locally. You record dynamic adjustments in the Actuals. You forecast local results from to-date actuals and local resource calendars. Management 'is' overcoming Global problems with local resources.
    Leave the Global Calendar alone for operational exceptions. Remove exceptions from the Global Calendar. The Global Calendar is for planning. That Global Calendar is still the basic assumption, despite operational problems in your schedule. If the Global Calendar has a holiday, the projects it is assigned to forecast the holiday. Simplify your Global Calendars to match basic, high-level, factual assumptions.
    Let your Resource Calendars forecast the detail of operations and overcome the Global Calendar. But actualize what happens no matter what any calendar says so calculation is up to date.
    Calendars are strictly for calculation, for forecasting. You can always log progress on Christmas or during Ramadan, just as you logged no progress during the hurricane. But Joe Labor Unit will not forecast performing his task in NYCNY on even a regular Monday if his calendar has him training in Borneo. Cancel Joe's trip and change his calendar. He is available in NYCNY on the date you want now. His forecast changes, the project forecast changes. Primavera is perfectly dynamic. And the project will not forecast work on Christmas or during Ramadan if the Global Calendar says these are exceptions to your usual M-F 8-5 with an hour for lunch. Global Calendars are the sub-structure that we accept in building the initial, accepted Project Schedule and that provide the framework we analyze Risk mitigation around in operations.
    "We're forecasting a late finish now due to the hurricane." "Schedule the workforce to work through the Christmas holidays." (adjust, adjust, adjust) "That brought completion in." The Global Calendar assumes no hurricanes and getting Christmas off. After the hurricane, the PM sets the operational guideline. The Scheduler adjusts the resource calendars to overcome the hurricane period's lost progress. As soon as the As-built has the adjustments, the schedule calculates and forecasts completion on time. The workforce is not scheduled to work Christmas in the Global Calendar. In their Resource calendars, now they are. The schedule forecasts work at Christmas. You mitigated the hurricane risk by overriding the Global Calendar with Resource Assignments. If you make those Resource Calendar Christmas adjustments in September when the hurricane hit, you will forecast project completion on time in the next report from P6. You pull completion back to the left after operational realities pushed it out to the right.
    The original schedule is Art- planning, compromise and commitment. The ongoing fine-tuning and manipulation of As-built detail makes Art a Masterpiece by giving the heartbeat of the project and implementing the vision of its manager. Or not..

  • Adding external photo galleries, calendars, etc. in Catalyst

    Is there a way of adding external photo albums, calendars (ie. yahoo, google) into a website made in Flash Catalyst?

    The short answer is no. If these modules need to be within the design of the Flash Catalyst project, you can add them using Flash Builder to add them in. This method will require some effort and knowledge of ActionScript and the Flex Framework.  If these modules need to next to the Flash Catalyst project, then you could modify the produced HTML file that contains the Flash Catalyst element and insert the modules.
    Either way, you will have a modest amount of development to add these elements to your project.
    Good luck,
    Chris

  • Editing Working Days/Non Working Days in the base Project Calendar PWA

    Hello Experts,
    I am attempting to edit working days/non working days in the base project calendar PWA 13. I receive an error message when I attempt to open the base project schedule.
    I click the "edit" button under "Enterprise Calendars" page.  The error message states:
    "This Project Web App feature requires at least Microsoft Internet Explorer 8.0"  (using Chrome)
    Attempting to Opening PWA in I.E. I receive a different error message stating that I need Project Professional installed on my computer and it cannot find the current project.  
    I have Admin rights, I have project pro, and Im able to access any project or function using PWA and Project Pro. Can you tell me what I am missing (detailed steps--kinda new to PWA)
    Thanks so much.  

    If you allow me to jump in, I'd advice you to first open MS Project Pro and then try again.
    Also check that your MS Project Pro URL account do not finish with /default.aspx.
    Finally ensure that your PWA URL is in the trusted site and eventually add it to the compatibility sites.
    Hope this helps,

  • How to repair projects that get a "TickTime.cpp-290" error after opening a specific project.

    This is a guide to repair projects that get a "TickTime.cpp-290" error after opening a specific project.
    Prerequisites:
    Project repair tool (download link below)
    WinRAR or any file archiver
    Damaged project file
    As an example, let's say the name of my damaged project is 'test.prproj'
    Steps:
    1. Download the project repair tool here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/3fyja0ws7l5gkbt/pp-repair-0.1.35.zip?dl=0
    2. Rename your project file extension from 'test.prproj' to 'test.zip' (a warning appears saying the file might become unusable. Do not be concerned about the warning. Click OK and move to the next step.)
    3. Extract the contents of 'test.zip' to a location on your computer. (Right click on the file and select ‘Extract files’ > Choose a location > Click OK).
    4. Go to the extracted location. Note the file 'test' has no extension.
    5. Rename the file, 'test.prproj'.
    6. Launch the project repair tool, and then select the file 'test.prproj' (the one that we renamed in the last step).
    7. Deselect all the check-boxes in the project repair tool.
    8. Click the Repair button.
    9. After a few seconds you see a message saying 'Success'.
    10. Open the repaired file in Premiere Pro and then reset the workspace. Choose Window > Workspace > Reset Current Workspace.
    11. Click the Save button to reduce the project size.
    12. Your project is now repaired.
    NOTE: If a file containing letters such as ã, å, ê, í, ú don’t repair, rename the file to something that doesn't contain these letters.

    Hi Rameez,
    first of all thanks a bunch for the tool - it saved our neck this morning on a tight deadline.
    One minor note: I did get a message that the (already uncompressed + renamed) file is not uncompressed until I ran the tool as Administrator so you might want to add that to the FAQ entry...
    Other than that I'm very much interested in what triggers this bug so we can potentially prevent it.
    Background:
    Specs: Windows 8.1, German locale (ie comma is decimal symbol), Premiere Pro CC 2014.2 installed in English
    My colleague who ran into the TickTime.cpp-290 error remembers having created a new workspace while working on the project. That seems to have triggered the issue as we haven't had any trouble on other projects yet. It also got saved into the project file:
    <MZ.Project.WorkspaceName>Bearbeitung</MZ.Project.WorkspaceName>
    Any autosaves after he added the workspace were corrupted as well while the ones dating back to earlier still open fine.
    I'd like to mention that Premiere did import previous (German language) workspaces - dating back until CS5. Not sure if that comes into play.
    On the other hand, the debug log looks like there only is an issue with the decimal symbol:
    10:08:06: Input: C:/temp/trouble/uncompressed/final.prproj
    10:08:06: Path: C:/temp/trouble/uncompressed Basename: final Extension:prproj
    10:08:06: 19852-> from: <PlaybackSpeed>0,069148936170212769</PlaybackSpeed>
    10:08:06: 19852-> to:   <PlaybackSpeed>0.069148936170212769</PlaybackSpeed>
    10:08:06: 23970-> from: <PlaybackSpeed>0,0062741915889604422</PlaybackSpeed>
    10:08:06: 23970-> to:   <PlaybackSpeed>0.0062741915889604422</PlaybackSpeed>
    I really need to make sure that this is no general problem with German locales as we have multiple users on this kind of config and can't afford projects breaking.
    Or do we "just" need to watch out to get rid of the old workspaces? I'm a little puzzled to be honest.
    Maybe it helps to mention that we are on CC Enterprise
    Best regards,
    Mike

  • VS 2010 error: 'Error while trying to run project: Not implemented'

    I added a new Oracle database project using Oracle Tools for Visual Studio 2010. Once the Oracle database project is added to my Solution, my Visual Studio is no longer able to start the debugger and at times not able to run Test Cases. It error with 'Error while trying to run project: Not implemented'. If I unload the project, VS starts working fine.
    Any idea on how to resolve this issue?

    I ran into this problem as well, working in a VS2010 solution which included an ASP.NET web project and the v11.2.0.2.1 ODT version of the Oracle project.
    Turns out that I was able to solve the problem by removing the Oracle project from the solution, and then adding it back in. From a SLN file point of view, it seems that as long as the Oracle SQL project is located after the Web Application Project that everything works fine.
    Note that the SLN file is not organized by alphabetical project name, so changing the name of the SQL project doesn't help; its organized by order of project addition to the solution, so removing and re-adding is the way to go.

    Hi Claudia,
    If you allow me to jump in, where exactly are you seeing work on the exceptions? Are you consulting any kind of report? Are you checking directly using the task usage view in MS Project Pro?
    It might be that the project plan hasn't been published so the report is not up to date.
    Hope this helps,

  • I haven't added events but am getting "This calendar is unreadable. No events have been added to your iCal calendar"

    I recently started getting the message "This calendar is unreadable. No events have been added to your iCal calendar".  However, I typically add my events by typing them myself either on my MacBook Pro or my iPhone. I don't import from outside sources. I don't know if it's related or just coincidental that around the same time, events that I add to my MacBook Pro are not syncing to my iPhone, but the events added by iPhone seem to appear on my MacBook Pro and my MiniMac.  Is there a way to find the event that is being referenced in this error message??

    iPhone:
    Plug in your iPhone
    Go to iTunes > Your iPhone > Info and ensure that calendars is not checked off to sync -- if you are using MobileMe to sync, this option should not be checked
    On both Macs:
    1.) Go to Apple > System Preferences > MobileMe > Sync and remove the check Mark for calendars.  With the new MobileMe calendar system there is no need to have this checked.  Close the MobileMe window once this is complete.
    2.) Open iCal and then go to iCal > Preferences > Accounts and remove the MobileMe account from here with the minus sign.
    3.) Go to iCal > Quit iCal
    4.) Remove the following to the trash and restart your computer:
    Home > Library > Caches > com.apple.ical
    Home > Library > Calendars > Calendar Cache, Cache, Cache 1, 2, 3, etc. (Do not remove Sync Cache or Theme Cache if present)
    Home > Library > Preferences > com.apple.ical (There may be more than one of these. Remove them all.)
    5.) Open iCal and go to iCal > Preferences > Accounts
    -- If the MobileMe Account is already here remove it again and then re-add it being very careful to use the correct name and password (for your 10.5 system follow these steps for re-adding: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4330)
    -- If the MobileMe account is not already here, add it in.
    iCal will download your calendars from the MobileMe server.  Watch and see if you get the error message.  If it completes the download (little spinning gear stops spinning next to the MobileMe calendar) go ahead and add a new uniquely named event to one of your MobileMe calendars on both computers and see if it syncs between.
    Let us know what happens.

  • "iCal can't read this calendar file. No events have been added to your iCal calendar."

    How do I deal with this error message-"iCal can’t read this calendar file. No events have been added to your iCal calendar." ? .ics vs .vcs?
    Thanks

    Greetings,
    What version of the Mac OS and what version of iCal are you running?
    Are you using MobileMe calendars (or any other server based calendars like Google) in your iCal?
    While you answer those questions you can try the following troubleshooting:
    1. First make an iCal backup:  Click on each calendar on the left hand side of iCal 1 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.
    2. Remove the following to the trash and restart your computer:
    Home > Library > Caches > com.apple.ical
    Home > Library > Calendars > Calendar Cache, Cache, Cache 1, 2, 3, etc. (Do not remove Sync Cache or Theme Cache if present)
    Home > Library > Preferences > com.apple.ical (There may be more than one of these. Remove them all.)
    ---NOTE: Removing these files may remove any shared (CalDAV) calendars you may have access to. You will have to re-add those calendars to iCal > Preferences > Accounts.
    Once the computer is back up and running open iCal and test.
    Hope that helps.
