How can I add a birthday without creating a new contact?

Hiya,
I would like to add birthdays to my calendar for my friends children and my neices and nephews.  However, I don't want to create a new contact for all of them. Can I add an entry into the birthdays calendar only?  When I add an entry in iCal on my MacBook I can edit it to a specific calendar, but I have no option to add to the birthday calendar.  If I really have to create a contact for these entries, can I select which contacts show up in my iPhone? Obviously I don't want a huge contacts list for babies and small children in my phone!
I tried Dates to iCal and it was good for anniversaries, but for other birthdays it wasnt as they appear as the parents name and then the entry (e.g. Jane: 2nd Sophies Birthday) which I find very annoying!
I hope one of you geniuses out there can help me!
Thanks very much.

Also open the calendar app, tap on calendars bottom middle of the screen and make sure under other you have birthdays ticked in the calendars

    Music purchased from the iTunes store is not stored in your personal iCloud account, and an iCloud account is not required to redownload them.  You should be able to redownload them as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519.  If you are unable to, contact iTunes store support for assistance by going to https://expresslane.apple.com ; click ‘iTunes', and then 'iTunes Store', then 'Purchases, Billing & Redemption'.

    You can sync an iPhone to only one computer. If you connect it to a different computer (or you have never connected it to a computer) it will delete all iTunes content on the phone and replace it with the iTunes content on the current computer. As Avis says, you can transfer your purchases to the computer you are about to sync to, but only if that computer is authorized to the same account that the content was downloaded under.

    You cannot get around Activation Lock without the oringinal owner disassociating the iPad from their account.
    See the Activation Lock FAQ for what you and they need to know.

    I have new iphone and all data were restored but my music! How can I add my music from Itunes and new iphone?

    Connect the old phone to your computer, right click on it in iTunes, and choose Transfer Purchases. That should put all of your music in iTunes except any tracks that were not purchased from iTunes. If you have any such you will have to retrieve them from the original source, or see: https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3141.
    Apple also has this tip for copying data from an old phone to a new one.

  • How can I indent a paragraph WITHOUT creating spaces above or beneath?

    I am using Dreamweaver CS3 on a G5 Macintosh running OS
    10.5.5.
    I selected a new HTML document (Dreamweaver opened it as a
    CSS) and pasted text from a MS Word document.
    When I "Indent" ALL of the text everything stays the same
    except that it is ALL indented.
    BUT when I "Indent" only one paragraph then that paragraph is
    not only indented BUT there ALSO appears an extra space before and
    an extra space after that paragraph.
    What this is doing is inserting <blockquote> before and
    after the paragraph.
    How can I "indent" a paragraph without any spaces appearing
    before or after the paragraph?
    Also can this be easily done from the Design page?
    I tried inserting a tag by pressing the "tag" button on the
    keyboard but that did the same thing as using the "indent" function
    (i.e. also inserted spaces before & after the paragraph).
    BTW: I am a novice, so please try to make it as simple as
    possible.

    When you paste from Word, you often get line breaks instead
    of paragraphs.
    I think that's the problem.
    Instead of this -
    <p>this is a paragraph</p>
    <p>this is a paragraph</p>
    <p>this is a paragraph</p>
    <p>this is a paragraph</p>
    you get this -
    <p>this is a paragraph<br />
    this is a paragraph<br />
    this is a paragraph<br />
    this is a paragraph</p>
    In which case the symptoms are completely understandable.

  • Can I join the partnership without creating a new website?

    I have a client who already has a business catalyst website, which I would like to edit in Dreamweaver. Can I join the partnership program somehow without having to go through the process of creating a new website which I don't need?
    Also, I am unclear on how to get the dreamweaver extension.
    thanks!

    Hi,
    For DW extension it depends on what version of CS you are working under.  If CS4 or CS5 you'll need to install the plugin. 
    - http://www.businesscatalyst.com/support/dw
    If using the latest CS6 it's already integrated into DW.  - http://www.businesscatalyst.com/dw/templates_video.html
    As far as editing your client's site you can just have the client add you as a site admin.  This will allow you to edit as required. 
    Kind regards,
    -Sidney

  • How can I add a button that opens a new tab?

    How can I quickly open a new (blank) tab without going to File --> Open New Tab. There has to be a button I can add or a box that isn't checked somewhere. I used to be able to click in the blank space in the row of tabs to open a new tab, but with this latest Firefox update, if I click in the blank space now, it just "restores" my browser window.
    To explain further - I know I can middle-click a link to open it in a new window, but if I'm on one page reading an article, and I want to open a new tab to look up a word or map or whatever, I need a faster way to open a new blank tab.

    You are right - there should be and there is on my windows 7 machine but not on my windows 8.1 machine. Firefox add-ins are identical. So how do I get the new tab button back?

  • How can I add a attachment field to my new form list

    I have the setting checked yes for attachments. Then I click on the edit tab above then attach file, once I attach the file, it disappears and I cant see it after the record is saved. So how would I add a attachment to a record?

    Hi Soupi,
    From your description, my understanding is that you want to show attachments in list view.
    By default, the list view only contain the Title column. If you want to show whether there is an attechment in an item, you can modify the view and show the Attachments column as Clicking List->Modify View, check "Attachments" in Columns section.
    After the above, the result is like:
    In the above image, test1 has an attachment, test1 doesn't have attachments.
    Thanks,
    Wendy

  • Contacts app? no accounts. can't add one. won't save a new contact.

    My Contacts app shows no accounts, I cannot add an account local or cloud, and if I add a contact it is not saved to disk. Anyone have any idea what is going on? and how I might fix it. Other apps in this group (Calendar, Mail, Notes, etc) seem to be working normally.

    I'm having this as well. I have a 15 inch Retina MacBook Pro (late 2013). I added an iCloud account in the preferences panel, and it added it successfully to email and calendar but not contacts, even though it is checked. I've tried to add it from within contacts, signed out of iCloud and signed back in, and restarted the computer with no success.
    I can't sync with iCloud or add a new contact.

  • How can I add check boxes without using the form widget?

    I would like to use check boxes for our facets for our search engine.  You can see an example below.  Is there anyway to do this without using the form widget?
    PJM - Site Updates

    It is not possible to accomplish this with the Muse's Form Widgets. You may need to look for other online solutions and fetch the source code and add to the Muse page using the Insert HTML feature.
