How do I add one event to multiple, but not repeating, dates

I routinely need to add single events to 10 to 20 dates at once. These dates rarely line up in a repeating sequence. For instance I may need to schedule "appointment with John at 1pm" on M,Tu this week; W,Thu,Fri next week; M,Thu the following week. And "appointment with Jane at 10am" on M this week; Tu next week; Thu the following week.
I know I can copy and paste identical text in one at a time on each date but this is tedious.
Is there an app or trick I can use to do this efficiently? Previously I used an old version of Calendar Creator in which I could create an event and then push a toggle switch on all the days across a month in which the event would reoccur.
Thanks! I'm new to Mac and iCal.

Hello,
Welcome to Apple Discussions.
1. Make the first event in iCal when and how you want it.
2. If you are not in month view, switch to it.
3. Highlight the event in the calendar view and press Cmd-C (copy).
4. Click on the blank area on a day you want to copy to.
5. Press Cmd-V (paste).
6. Repeat steps 4-5 for all needed dates.
Best wishes

    Welcome to the forum.
    However, this is the Photoshop>General Discussions forum, and does not cover either Elements program, Premiere Elements, or Photoshop Elements, or their Elements Organizer.
    If you can please let us know exactly which of the Elements program you are using (either Premiere Elements, or Photoshop Elements, through the Elements Organizer), a MOD can Move your post to the appropriate forum, where you will get quick answers.

  • During import, how to auto split one project into multiple albums based on date?

    I believe I've done enough aperture reserach to get all my terminology right, so here goes...
    I've created a file structure within the aperture inspector the the tune of: 
    Year [folder], Type of event (Occasion, special occasion, holiday, vacation) [folder], Project (Wedding), Album (i.e. Day 1, Day 2 or Pre wedding week, event, honeymoon).
    I also have entire months with 7 or 8 pictures each day, that are of the same type/project (random dog pictures) but are distinctly different days (albums - day in park, in bed at night, watching movie). 
    My question is, can I import one project with multiple albums already created based on the date they're taken.  As I can see it, all I can do is split individual projects automatically by date.  But what if one project is over one month, but has multiple distinct days that would be ideal for albums?  One more example.  We did a trip to San Fran.  One day was touring the city, one day was a concert, another day was touring the city.  All one project, but 3 different albums (in my mind).  I had to import as one project, then separately go in and make albums.  I would like that done automatically.
    My suspicion is that I can not natively do this within aperture, and that I would need something called an "applescript."  I haven't done any reserach into that area, so if that's the case and you know where I can find a script that would do this, I'd appreciate the help. 
    Sorry for the wordiness, just wanted to be clear.  Thanks for any and all help!

  • How do I add album artwork to iTunes, but NOT to the ID3 tag, manually?

    I imported a lot of mp3s into iTunes. After some messing about with ID3 tags, I got iTunes to download most of the Artwork for my albums.
    I've found a lot of the other covers using Slothradio, and I started to copy the images into iTunes. However, I noticed that it was actually adding the images into the ID3tags.
    When I checked the music for which iTunes downloaded the covers, it DIDN'T put the artwork into the tags.
    So, how do I add the covers to iTunes like it does itself, without putting them in the ID3 tags?
    Any help appreciated.

  • How do I add one contact to multiple distribution lists?

    I have employees that work on more than one project and therefore need to be on multiple distribution lists. Outlook groups is able to accomplish this but I can not get it to work on my MAC using Mail and Contacts.
    For Example, John needs to be on the following lists:
    Entire Team
    Project A
    Project B
    Problem I am facing is that when I drag and drop the John from main contacts it will only allow him to be in one group and removes him from the one he was previously added to. How do I get around this?
    Thank you!

  • Calendar help: how do I get One event to show up on two calendars

    Calendar help: how do I get One event to show up on two calendars? For example I want to enter vacation only once but I wanted to show up on the calendar that I share with my husband and the calendar I have with my assistant.

    The signature should show up with each account. Usually the complaint is not having an option for multiple signatures or not being able to have a different signature for each account.

  • How do i take one layer with multiple selections...

    how do i take one layer with multiple selections and make those selections their own layer?

    Yes sir. It w was really hard to explain. It is discontiguous segments that are separated by transparent areas. And I want those non transparent areas to be on their own layer. I have a photo shop file that has a bunch of buttons on them and they are on a transparent background. It is one layer. I want to select all the buttons and put them on their own layers. I can do this manually by selecting a button and cmd Just to a new layer, but when I have 200 buttons it is a daunting task.

    Make sure that the iPad is using the same Apple ID as your iPhone. If the phone number still doesn't appear, log out of iMessage on both devices, log back in on the iPhone, wait until it activates, then log into iMessage on the iPad with the same Apple ID.

  • How can i add one month to a date variable ?

    Unlike the week which always 7 days, month may change from 28 to
    31, so how can i add one month to a date variable ? Thanks in
    advance.

    Adding 365 won't always work because of leap years.
    You could use the following SQL statement:
    SELECT
         TO_DATE(
              TO_CHAR(TO_DATE(SYSDATE), 'DD-MON-') ||
                (TO_CHAR(TO_DATE(SYSDATE), 'YYYY') + 1)) NEXT_YEAR
    FROM
         dual
    NEXT_YEAR
    08-JAN-03Or you could create your own function. You would use this
    exactly like add_months:
    CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION add_years
         (v_date DATE, num_years NUMBER)
    RETURN DATE AS
         v_year DATE;
    BEGIN
         v_year := TO_DATE(
                   TO_CHAR(TO_DATE(SYSDATE), 'DD-MON-') ||
                         (TO_CHAR(TO_DATE(SYSDATE), 'YYYY')
                                             + num_years));
         RETURN v_year;
    END;     
    SELECT
         add_years(SYSDATE, 1) new_year
    FROM
         dual
    NEW_YEAR 
    08-JAN-03
    SELECT
         add_years(SYSDATE, -1) new_year
    FROM
         dual
    NEW_YEAR 
    08-JAN-01

  • How can I add an event to my calendar that occurs every third day...I have an ipad.

    How can I add an event to my calendar that occurs every third day?

    Do you happen to have a Mac?  If so, and if you use iCloud to sync your calendars, you can do that on your Mac and your iPad will understand.  But you cannot create such a repitition (or something like the third Tuesday of each month) on your iPad.
    In Calendar on your Mac, you would create the event, choose "Custom ..." as the repitition frequency, then choose "Days" and choose every 3 days.
