Getting next calendar event on home screen

I have just bought an iPhone 5, never had one before. On my old htc and before that, on my Nokia n95, I could get the next calendar event on my home screen - how do I do this on my iPhone?

Well how bizaare !
I went into Settings - Personal - Home Screen - Home Screen Theme and switched to "Basic", then to "Contacts" .... and the Home Screen emails appeared again.
I then went back to the Home Screen sub  menu, and a 4th entry had appeared : E-mail Notification ! Before there were only 3 (Shortcuts, Home Screen and Home Screen Theme).
I've now gone back to my original Home Screen Theme  (Shortcuts Bar).
What a strange (and at times frustrating) phone.

    Month view, tap MARCH 2013, calendar closes to home screen.

    Try removing any all-day events from the calendar for the 1st April 2013 e.g. if you are syncing the calendar from somewhere else (e.g. Outlook on a PC or iCal/Calendar on a Mac) then change it to a timed event instead of all-day - it seems that there is a problem with all day events on that date which is when the clocks change due to daylight saving.

  • Help (Task/Calendar Display on home screen)

    I need some guidance on how to display my tasks/calendar on my home screen. If there is a way to perform this task I would greatly appreciate it if someone can help, or if there is an application I can download. I previously had the Pearl and I became reliant on this quick view from my home screen.

  • Calendar missing from Home screen

    How do I retrieve /reinstall the original PB calendar to my home screen? I must have deleted it although I don't remember doing it but it is missing.  

    Hello im-obiwan,
    In order to restore the Calendar application you'll need to reload the BlackBerry® PlayBook OS. I would suggest reaching out to BlackBerry® PlayBook support here for assistance: http://us.blackberry.com/support/playbook-support/contact.jsp
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    AFAIK that's the usual way on all S60 phones (though I could be wrong on that for older phones).
    The home screen shows the meeting for 1 hour. Then it shows either the next meeting or the text "No more entries today". compared to the text "No calendar entries today" if you do not have any meetings for this specific day.
    BTW, you will probably not get any response from Nokia here as this is a user to user forum.
    If you want to contact Nokia, press the "Contact us" button on the top right.

  • How do I get my apps to my home screen when it's in my setting

    My Facebook app is in my setting but it's not on my home screen... When I go to App Store it says it's already down loaded... How do I get it to my home screen??

    Facebook is in the settings whether you have the app or not, so that's not a surprise.
    Search for the app. Swipe down from the middle of the home screen to reveal the Spotlight Search at the top of the screen. Type in Facebook. The app should appear in the search. If it is hidden in a folder, that folder will be shown to the right of the app name in the search.
    if it's not in a folder, just start swiping from screen to screen to look for it. You can move it to the first screen by tapping and holding down on the icon until it wiggles, then move the app to the edge of the screen - about halfway over to the next screen - and the app should jump to that screen. Tap the home button when you are done moving the app.

  • HT201272 I just bought a new iPad. When I tap on Purchase in the App store I see all my previously purchased apps each with a little box that says open. There is no download cloud. How do I get these apps onto my home screen?

    I just bought a new iPad and the apps I had previously purchased are in the app store under Purchased. They appear with a little box that says "Open". There is no download cloud so I can't click on them to download the apps to my home screen. Is there a way to move these apps to my home screen?

    If they have 'open' next to them then that implies that they are already on your iPad - if you tap on the 'open' button does that open the app ? If it does then they are on your iPad. You've checked all your homescreens and tried a soft-reset to see if they show after the iPad has restarted : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • Getting tasks, calendar event from MS Exchange Server

    Hello!
    I have a problem. I need to connect to MS Exchange Server and read different kind of information. I was advised by my manager to look for libraries to do so. He said that there are probably some and if not then you should think how to do it without them. I looked for some and discovered that there are some kind of them but they are for money $$$.
    I need to connect to Exchange Server to read tasks, calendar events and mail. I looked throw the forum and found some topics, but no results. I found a framework which is disributed for free under GNU licence www.omesc.com
    Please, tell me, anybody, is there are any open source free libraried to do that. And if not that can you give me some ideas about how can I connect to Exchange Server and get some information from it.
    I am desperate, I don't know what to do, please anybody help me...

    Hi,
    You can use directly a jndi ldap context if the Ldap connector of your Exchange server is up...
    It worked perfectly for me as anonymous...
    One other way, if you have an active directory, you can connect to it as Ldap with ldap authentication ( mandatory for directory browsing... )
    I hope it helps

  • Calendar Views on Home Screen

    Hi,
    I have more than one e-mail account that I send and receive meeting requests from.  I noticed that my appointments sent and received from other e-mail accounts does not show up on my home screen.  I can only see appointments sent and received from one e-mail address.  Do you know how I can see all appointments on the home screen without having to go to my calendar application?  Thanks.

    Generally you are only going to sync on calendar with your device. Tell me, how does your mail sync, is it all done via webmail/pop3 etc: or do you have one on a BES ( corporate work account) and we can try to work with you.
    If someone helped you give them kudos. Research all info!

  • Can't get past calendar events to sync with Outlook

    I can't seem to get past caldendar events on my iphone to sync back to outlook.  The basic issue is that when I purcahsed the iphone 4 a few months ago, it only synced back 6 months and deleted all previous calendar events.  However, I want to get all the past calendar info from my previous iphone onto the new one.  I have tried taking the old iphone and syncing through itunes and it only adds the newer outlook calendar events to the iphone, but doesn't transfer the phone calendar events back to the computer (outlook).  Any suggestions?

  • When using the app store i get kicked back to the home screen?

    I will be browsing through the app store on my iPad and all of a sudden the screen goes black for second and then I'm back at the iPad home screen? It happens pretty frequently and only seems to happen when using the app store. I don't understand why I keep gettig kicked back to home screen and any solution would be appreciated.

    Im sorry I will try to be more clear.. and I appreciate all of ur input. Wi-fi works fine.. everything opens and functions fine on the I pad. The problem is I will click on app store or the I tunes store...it opens fine and I am able to look at and download apps  etc... but after being in the appstore or I tunes store for a couple of minutes I get kicked out to the I pads home screen. Its like pushing the home button but I didn't. It only seems to do this when im in the app store or I tunes store. I have been using the chrome browser and other downloaded apps such as ebay just fine with out this problem occurring. Not sure about safari as I dont use it and use chrome instead. Um I don't think the home button its self is faulty because it works fine and as stated before this only happens when I am in the appstore or I tunes . I've only had this I pad 1 64gb wi-fi for a few days .. I got it off of ebay it was stuck in restore mode getting error code 1611.  I was able to successfully Restore it with I tunes and it running ios 5.1. Seams to work great besides the problem being mentioned.

  • Calendar Settings On Home Screen

    So is there such a way to not display the date on the home screen? I would like the time just not the date but I can't seem to find such a thing or is this theme controlled.?
    Don't forget to check your cinch!

    Hello and Welcome to Apple Discussions. 
    Not very loud but easily enough to attract your attention from a pocket or on the desk. It has roused me after sleeping off a night shift but I wouldn't rely on it for that!

  • Why don't I get reminders/calendar events when Smart Cover closed on ipad3?

    I don't quite know why. But when my Smart Cover is on my ipad 3, reminders and calendar events don't make any noise till I open the cover,then I have about 20 items all at once making noise. Is there a way the ipad can make noise when the cover is closed to remind me of events etc?

    Hi,
    Based on my research, “\Device\Harddisks” means Disk 2 in Disk Management.
    However, it seems that he numbers after DR are just unique random numbers. "DR" is being incremented as you insert new drives (e.g. USB). In these scenario,
    it is hard to find the \Device\Harddisk2\DR72.
    Did you mean that you have 40TB for disk 2? If yes, it would take a long time to do the scan. However, this may be the unique way to make sure the “\Device\Harddisk2\DR72” can
    be scanned.
    Best regards,
    Susie

  • Get an Website Icon on Home Screen

    A while ago I could create a website icon to appear on my HomeScreen, like an App. I've since upgraded my iPhones to iOS4. Is there a way to have Website icons to appear on the HomeScreen

    When at a site and you say Add to Home screen via the button to add bookmark or add to home screen option, AND IF the site coded the page with the code needed to point to an icon for the iPhone (not favicon like browsers use) then it will use the icon.
