How can I see past events in iCal 5.0?

I use iCal to schedule jobs for customers and it does not let me see any events in the past when I use the search.  Is there a setting or something?  I can scroll back and see them but I can't search for them.
Lion 10.7
iCal 5.0

This may be a bug for all that I know but I am too cynical to believe that.
From everything that I have read, it appears as though Apple did remove the feature. What the reasons could be for that are beyond me. And I did find the paragraph that states that feature exists in the iPad. I copied this from the iPad User Guide for iOS 5. The free book that I downloaded in iBooks.
"Display a song’s lyrics
Display the album cover by tapping the thumbnail at the top of the screen. Lyrics appear if you’ve added them to the song using the song’s Info window in iTunes."
However, who knows with Apple anymore. Case in point - Apple changed the wording on their website about multitouch gestures being one of the new features of iOS 5, a day or two after the update came out. They decided to release the feature to work on the iPad 2 only - even though the website promoted the feature as being one of the new features for the "iPad" for months leading up to the release - leading all users to believe that it would work on the iPad 1 as well. I don't know if you read any of those threads but the screaming is finally starting to die down on that one.
My point is that even thought the guide says that the song lyrics works, I have not read of anyone that can confirm that it does. Maybe someone else will confirm that the feature is in the iOS, but I don't believe that it is. So for the time being - for me anyway - it is not a bug - but another "why did they do that" decision by Apple.

    How can I see past months calendar events

    In both iTunes, "Do not sync events older than xx days" is unchecked. 
    In other news, do you have any idea why all All-day events -- both one-time and repeating -- (e.g., holidays, anniversaries) disappeared when I migrated everything from an old MacBook with OSX 10.6 and iCal to a new MacBook Air with OSX 10.8 and Calendar?  This is on the computer synced to the iPhone with only two months of past events.  (To be clear, that MacBook Calendar has all past events on it going back about 10 years.  Just the All-day events were lost.)

  • How can i delete an event on ical without notifying

    Hello
    how can i delete an event on ical without notifying. All I want to do is delete the event and not notify anyone.
    Thanks

    I was just experiencing this problem on Mountain Lion. The calendar I wanted to delete was on iCloud. So, I logged into iCloud from a web browser, and selected Calendar. On the current incarnation of iCloud Calendar the calendars are listed on the left. I selected the "Edit" link at the top of that list and chose delete. It indicated that the items would be deleted, but there was nothing about notifications. Then, when I went back to iCal on my Mac, I selected the calendar to be deleted, right clicked, and slected refresh...
    ... gone.
    It probably would have disappeared on it's own eventually. I'd be curious to see if theis works for others, so please confirm.
    Good luck.

  • Calendar- can't see past events

    I just purcahsed the Galaxy S3 a few weeks ago and I can not see my past events on my calendar for the past 2 months. I have a google account and I don't know what to do?

        Hello KylieBear,
    Thank you for reaching out about this issue. Having access to your calendar on a daily basis is critical in staying organize and efficient. As a fellow calendar user, I can certainly understand how this feature is super important to you! May I ask have you tried the suggestion that maya0630 provided? It would be best to confirm that the calendar is set to Google so you can manage it online from a computer. If you can be so kind as to update me on the status of this issue then that would be great.
    Thank you…

  • How can I see Calendar event END times at a glance?

    How can I display my Calendar event titles exactly as I type them? I do not want Calendar to remove duration from the titles of my events. Otherwise I can't see event END times at a glance in month view; only start times. How can I "trick" Calendar to just show my titles as I type them - as I always could before I upgraded. I used to be able to enter "Seminar 9am-5:45" and it would appear that way regardless of how or what I chose to enter (or not enter) for duration.
    I am running OSX 10.9.3.

    It's a bit weird, but if you type in the time info TWICE into the event title then Calendar uses/deletes one of them to populate the event details and leaves the other.

  • How can I move an event in ical to another calendar without ical resending the event invite to everyone

    I have 2 microsoft exchange calendars that I use for work. One is provided by my company, the other is provided by a customer that I do contract work for. The customer prefers to send invites to my email address provided to me by them. Which means that the invite appears on the exchange calendar provided to me by the customer.
    That's fine, but I would like for the event to appear on my work calendar so that I can get reminders on my iphone (long story short, the customer does not allow me to connect to their exchange server via my iphone due to security reasons).
    So, I go into iCal, open the event and change the calendar for the event. Unfortunately, that causes iCal to resend the invite to everyone involved in the event. This causes alot of confusion, obviously, as now everyone is wanting to know why I sent an invite for an event that is already scheduled.
    How can I move events to another calendar without iCal sending another invite to everyone?

    If you change anything in a repeating calendar entry it will give you the option of disconnecting it from the series. So may any random change, choose to not change the series.

  • Can't see my events in iCal

    Hi all,
    maybe someone can help me with the following scenario.
    I synchronize my Sony Ericsson cellphone via iSync to iCal. Afer installing new software on my cellphone, all data got lost (of course). As I wanted to synchronize my data to the cellphone again, I realised, that only birthday events are displayed in my iCal. I can't find my events, even I do a search. The weird thing ist, that iSync can synchronize my events, although the events are not in iCal??? Can anybody explain this to me? Where are my events?
    Is it possible, that there is a relation to migration to leopard? Well, this happened shortly afert leopard was released, but maybe I didn't realise it, because I use iCal only for backup my cellphone data. And I can see events from 2007, for example.
    The other thing is, that events sometimes get lost. But one step after another ...
    Hope you understand my problem.
    Thanks in advance!

    Hi Bernard,
    thanks for your answer. I've tried it once again, because I had to set up my cellphone once again. At this time, the cellphone calendar and ical were empty. I did a synchronisation via isync. My events are in my cellphone calendar now!!!?
    Before I did the synchronisation, I added a few events to my ical. These were not synchrinized!!! These events are in ical now, but not in my cellphone. It's weird.
    Is there a possibility of a second ical-library or such?

  • My secretary uses Windows on a PC; how can she see and modify my iCal calendars?

    My secretary uses Windows on a PC; she looks at everyone else's diaries in Outlook, which I don't like or use. How can we arrange for her to see and modify my iCal calendars which are synced through iCloud? My last secretary simply signed on as me, but I don't really want to share all my emails and all my calendars with the new one!
    I have set up 'sharing' with her work account in my iCal account, but am not sure a) how to activate it from her end, and b) whether it will work.
    Thanks in advance

    Insert the USB flash drive in your computer and open it so it looks like a window.
    Over in your iTunes library, highlight the tracks you want to copy.
    Drag the tracks from iTunes to the open flash drive window.  This puts copies on the drive, and does not affect the iTunes library.
    (If you normally run iTunes in full screen mode, make it smaller so that you can do the drag.)

  • How can I see more than 6 all day events in the week view without scrolling?

    How can I see more than 6 all day events in the week view without scrolling?  I need to see all of my all day events at once.  I use this for scheduling and comparing of # invoices.  Going back and forth to scroll is cumbersome.  I just want to be able to expand the top section so I can see everything at once.

    Any ideas, anyone?

    After importing clips to Final Cut, they do not show up in the events library. Events from 2014 show up, but not 2015.They show up in the timeline of my project, though. How can I see them in the events browser?

    TThose aren't bins. Those are just groupings based on when the content was created or any other selected parameter. Use the action popup in the toolbar tho change the setting.
