Finding all Calendar Events

Hi
I need to find all events in a calendar. Using search for say the Planning Calendar only returns Planning in the event name.
Making only the Planning Calendar visible means I seem to have to trawl back month by month to find them. Not a great solution as I've just brought about 10 years history over from Palm Desktop (aka Claris Organizer.
Can anyone point me to some sort of advanced search ?
Also having found them is there a way mass reallocate them to a different calendar ?
Many thanks
Eric
G5 at last Mac OS X (10.4.6)

Yay. I sussed it.
Open the Search Result window.
Tick the calendar in question with others unticked and all its events display.
Shift click to select multiple events.
Right click (whoops Ctrl Click) and the context menu allows re-allocation to a different calendar. Cool
On to the nextissue

I have downloaded IOS7 on my iPhone and all calendar events have disappeared. The general functions of the calendar have changed and are definitely not 'user friendly'. How can I retrieve my calendar events. Will Apple improve the calendar function

I have downloaded IOS7 on my iPhone and all calendar events have disappeared. The general functions of the calendar have changed and are definitely not 'user friendly'. How can I retrieve my calendar events. Will Apple improve the calendar function or revert to the previous system. Even the typing function on IOS 7 is faulty - very slow to respond to the keyboard. I no longer enjoy using my iPhone. Can anyone assist. Thank you

Very strange! All of my calendar events have reappeared. This has happened one week after downloading iOS 7
The calendar however, is not easy to use.
The typing function on the phone has become even slower. Have to wait for each letter to show on screen.

I lost all calendar events and contacts during iTunes backup

i lost all calendar events and contacts during iTunes backup
I think my wife had an old apple ID on the phone and never backs up her device. She lost all contacts and calendar events. any help?

It would default to whatever account you have set for default. If you were using Exchange, it would sync to that. However, the settings for syncing are set up in iTunes. You would need to check to see what settings were in iTunes for syncing the information. It could be a supported application on the computer, or a cloud service as I said earlier.
On my personal phone, it will default to my iPhone calendar which I sync with Outlook on my computer. I can select the Exchange account if I want, but my default is what I sync with Outlook.

Cannot find my calendar events older than one year. Where are they ad how do I get them back?

I cannot find my old events on iCal. It seems it only goes back one year. How can I find them and recover my information and events going back further than that?

Greetings,
Sorry to hear about the missing data.
If you don't see your events there are 2 possibilities:
1.) There is something wrong with the calendar cache
2.) The events have been deleted
First go to iCal > Preferences > Advanced > Delete events.. -- see if this has been checked as this deletes events after a point in time you specify. Even if this is not checked now, if it was ever checked in the past, that will delete events.
To reset iCal's cache and settings in the hope this will bring the events back:
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.
If the events do not come back then the information you are looking for is truly not in iCal. You will need to restore from a backup (like TimeMachine) from a point in time before the events in question went missing.
If you do not maintain backups of your computer, start now.
Depending on how long ago these events were deleted from iCal you can try using data recovery to bring the files back although as these are past events, you may find that just moving forward from here is simplier than going through the effort but that is of course up to you to decide.
Here are a few examples of data recovery programs:

You can contact a local Apple Authorized Provider to see if they offer data recovery services: http://www.apple.com/buy/locator/service/
There are many nationwide / worldwide data recovery companies out there. Here are a few examples:

All calendar events and notes gone

All of my calendar events and notes have been erased. I don't know why. I really needed them! If anyone has any ideas about recovering them, I'd be very grateful. Thanks!

The only calendar listed is "birthdays," which appeared a while ago after I had downloaded the Facebook app and had all the birthdays of my Facebook friends. I never even wanted that calendar, so I had deselected it and had all my events on a different calendar. The other calendar is gone altogether and even the birthday one is blank. All of my notes are gone, too, and the books in my iBooks library all say cannot find the source. This is all since I installed the latest ios update. :/

Just lost all calendar events

Got out of plam Desktop 6.2.2 and then back in, all Calendar items are gone. Contacts are ok. Where is this data stored?
Any sugestions? Thanks, Brad

You can recover the data from your user folder provided you have only sync'ed once with the PC when you discovered the data missing. When you sync to the PC there are files created for each PIM category in your user folder. For Example; datebook.dat or datebook (Depending on the version of Palm Desktop) and datebook.bak. Using 6.2 the file names are .mdb and mdb.bak. For 6.2, the files are located in the username folder in PalmOSdesktop in my documents.
The files for previous versions are named .dat and .bak. When you sync, the current data is stored in .dat. The next time you sync the data in the .dat file is copied to the .bak file. With Palm Desktop closed, you can rename the .dat to .old. then rename the .bak to .dat. If the data in the .bak file is intact, it will now be in palm desktop when you reopen Palm desktop. I have included a link to show you how to find the userfolder on the PC.

Here is another link regarding data loss;
http://kb.hpwebos.com/wps/portal/kb2/common/article/39503_en.html
The best way to backup your data is to use the export feature in Palm Desktop. Make a new folder on the PC desktop named Palm Desktop Backup data. Next, select the category you want to export. You will get a window that asks where you want to save the file, save in the folder created on the desktop. There is a button that allows you to select currently selected record or all, select all. If you don't select all, then only the record highlighted is exported. You will then need to name the file for export, I suggest the name of the category, eg: datebook (With current date). Do this for all critical data in each category. With the data exported to the folder on the PC desktop, you can save this data to a flash drive, external hard drive or a CD-RW. With this method you will have your data in a seperate place than Palm desktop and the device. If you "Lose" data again, you can import the data back into palm desktop.
Make sure that when you make changes in palm desktop or the device to export the data to the folder created for the backup.

HT203521 Note field data deleted for all calendar events

All information at Note Field in calendar events as deleted. All remain information is there.
Is there any issue at iCloud? How can I get back this information?
Regards
Edison

I do have a backup which is the only way I was able to get the events to come back (other than the 2nd time it happened when they magically reappeared on their own after a few minutes). Once I restored from the backup, I then reset the sync data and overwrote the local contents with the contents from MobileMe to make sure everything was current. I considered downgrading but I think I'll tough it out for now and just keep making backups. I noticed that iCal is spitting out a bunch of messages to the system console, so this should help me dig deeper into the problem if it happens again.

IOS 6.0.1 thinks all calendar events are invitations

Ever since installing iOS 6.0.1, it appears that all my Google Calendar events appear as invitations. Is this happening to anyone else? Is there any way for me to fix this?
The only events that don't appear as invitations are the ones in my main calendar; I've got three calendars, one for personal, one for work, and one for other, and only those in personal are fine. The events in the other two calendars appear as invitations in my Calendar app on my iPod Touch.

I am seeing this exact same issue that everyone else is with Google calendar. I have two calendars set up with google that sync with a Microsoft Exchange account set up on iOS. After setting up the exchange account you go to m.google.com/sync from your safari browser, then click on the device you want to set up and tell it which calendars to sync.
This has been working fine for well over a year untilt he other day when iOS 6.0.1 came out which had a fix in it for MS Exchange customers where they were having trouble with inviations. Problem appears to be that whatever they fixed there for true MS Exchange users has now messed up those that are using google and an exchange account to sync other calendars.
What I have found is that everything appears normal if you only have read persmissions for the Google calendar that is syncing with your iOS device via an Exchange account. However if you have modify permissions for that calendar then all events from that calendar show up as invitations. This wouldn't be so bad if I could still edit the event becuase I just simply would not do anything with the invitation in regards to selecting 'maybe', 'accept', 'decline'. But the edit button is gone from the upper left hand corner of my screen so i can not edit the event either. But either way you look at it the event is still showing up as an event instead of as an event.
I can also tell this happened exactly at the time iOS 6.0.1 was released because all appointments entered before the install of 6.0.1 still show up as events with my synced calendars and I can still edit them. Anything that was entered to google calendar after the upgrade shows up as an invite.
Apple please fix this quickly.

Odd error - Automator can't find all ical events

Simple automator script:
Get Specified Items
(which is 1 ical Calendar)
Event Summary
(for today)
View Results
This script Is not able to find the event sceduled for today under given calendar. This problem seems to be intermitten. Normally i set it for event summary for 'This Week'. Most events are found, but some are missing from the results. I don't see any difference between the events found and missing.
I've tried instead of Get Specified Items to Find Ical Items, using the specific event summary, but it misses the same events. I figured it was maybe a spotlight indexing error, but when i search using spotlight the event is retrieved in spotlight results.
I do use .Mac to syncronize my calendars with other macs, could this be the issue? Although i'm not sure why spotlight would still work but automator not.
Anyone else having this problem or know a solution?
Terry

"Fixed"???
I can tell you where they OUGHT to be, but if the problem is that they have been moved, you need to ask your friend.
iCal keeps its data in ~/Library/Application Support/iCal, with a sub-folder in the Sources folder for each calendar. The sub-folders do not have user-friendly names! The calendar contents are in files called corestorage.ics, and if you look in the corresponding info.plist file you can see the calendar name.
You could try looking for corestorage.ics files in case they got moved to the wrong place. Alternatively, quit iCal, delete the several com.apple.iCal*.plist files in ~/Library/Preferences, drag folder ~/Library/Application Support/iCal to the desktop and restart iCal. Sometimes this reclaims the data from Sync Services.

Lost all calendar events since 2012 and most before then!

I updated my wife's iPhone to her own iTunes/Apple ID - now any calendar events since 2012 have been deleted and even some of those left i.e. from 2012 and before have been deleted as well.
Whenever I was offered the option to delete/merge/keep items they were kept and not deleted.
I have looked everywhere I can think off, including using iPhone recovery software - and there isn't any sign of deleted calendar events! If they had been deleted as I changed the Apple ID - I would have thought they would all have been deleted! As you can appreciate it, I am now firmly in the dog house! - where have they gone and can I recover them?

Thanks - initially the calendar seemed to be totally empty. I then did as you suggest and discovered the events prior to 2013. It is almost as if there was an incomplete synch and then it synched again and took the incomplete version as the correct version - loosing all 2013 events and some of the events prior to 2013!

All Calendar Events Disappeared?

This morning when I went to add a calendar event, I noticed that- even though all my calendars were turned on- all my calendar events were gone. Everything was fine yesterday, and I haven't updated my phone or anything since last week so I'm not sure what could have happened! When I go into Settings->Mail, Contacts and Calendars, the calendar I've downloaded is still there, except it doesn't show up in the calendar app.
Did I accidentally do something to change my calendars showing up? I synced my phone to my computer and it backed it up so I guess I can't restore it. But I have some really important calendar events saved, such as my work schedule.
If anyone has any suggestions, it's appreciated!

I have this same question. My calender entires were on my phone last week and they have just disappeared apart from the old reoccuring ones which are very few. However they are showing on my I cloud. How can I get them back from the cloud to my phone?

How to delete all calendar events in my iphone.

I need to delete all the events in my iphone which I have added manually in the calendar. Should I delete one by one in the calendar or do we have an option to delete all. I haven't synched my calendar with any external softwares including iCloud.

Turn ON Calendar in iCloud settings and choose merge. Wait few seconds and turn in back OFF. Choose delete from my iPhone. Now go to www.icloud.com from a desktop browser, sign in with your Apple ID and go to Calendars to delete all entries (if you want) more easily.

Display all calendar events for the day in notification centre

Hi there apple community,
I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction. I can only see a couple events in notification centre. I was hoping there is a way to show all the events for the day in notification centre.
Thank you for any help you can give me!

I want my events and birthdays there... please help me...

I lost all calendar events with mountain lion -- help!

I upgraded to Mountain Lion, and all looked fine until I opened Calendar -- no events!

Jim,
I presume all of the calendars have a ✓ mark in the appropriate box?
Try removing the com.apple.iCal.plist file from your Macintosh HD/Users/yourusername/Library/Preferences Folder. To find that Library folder, use Finder>Go Menu>Depress the "Option" key>Library. Drag the .plist file to your desktop, and log out/in or restart.
Then go to your Macintosh HD/Users/yourusername/Library/Calendars Folder and remove any files with "Cache" as a part of the file name. Use the same method as listed above to get to the correct Library Folder. Log out/in, or restart and check iCal for functionality.

Lost all Calendar events =(

Hi everybody,
I was adding an event to my Calendar app when it "crashed" and went to my home screen. I opened the app again and all of my events were gone like it was set to factory defaults. I had a ton of stuff in there. My questions are:
1) Do you know why it did this?
2) Is there any way to recover my events?
3) How do I keep it from happening in the future?
My iPhone is version 2.2. I sync it with iTunes, but I don't have it set up to sync with a program like Outlook. I haven't had any other problems with this iPhone except for today. The only thing I did different was charge it using a 3rd party Belkin USB cord last night. Could that have caused it?
Thanks for the help!

one thing that might help.
Try to restore the iphone from back up.
