How do I get my Calendar to start the week fr Monday instead of Sunday?

On my Macbook Pro, I am able to set my Calendar to start on Monday which appears farthest left.  However, on my iPhone (and iPad), the Calendar starts on the default Sunday and I don't see any settings to change that.  Can anyone help?

Thanks for the tip, Mactagg.  Yes, it's infuriating. 
My settings are for Singapore and we follow the British system, yet the Calendar still starts from Sunday which makes me wonder why Apple decided that the UK Calendar should start from Monday...
True, although there are plenty of good stuff about Apple, it seems that perhaps some middle manager somewhere has screwed certain features up such as Bluetooth which is horrible but that's for another story and thread...
I will still stick to Singapore settings as it affects my phone number settings.

  • How can I create a new calendar that starts the week on monday?

    Excel can do it, but I really like the template for calendars in numbers. That calendar is for printing it, so i don't need any special functionalities, only the template, with blank cells i can hand-write in.
    Thanks!

    Hi And95es,
    The Calendar template is very clever. Changing it to start on Monday would be a huge task. Here is an idea for a non-automatic calendar. Start with a table for month and year. Hide the table name if you like.
    A1 is a pop-up menu to choose a month. Type the year in B1.  I am trying to come up with a formula to show the day of the week for that month and year in B2. This is because you will have to type a 1 into the correct day in the calendar table to generate dates for the whole month.
    Create an  outline calendar like this:
    A2 contains the number 1
    B2=A2+1 and fill right
    A4=G2+1
    B4=A4+1 and Fill Right.
    Now select Row 4 and copy.
    Paste into every second row below.
    Format the table to make cells big enough to write in. Save as Template because you are about to make a calendar and you will need the template for next month.
    Type a 1 into the cell that is the first of that month. Now clear contents of cells you don't need.
    It would be handy to have a formula to show weekday for the first of the month. Not essential!
    Regards,
    Ian.

  • How can I start the week on Monday?

    I would like to edit the calendar to begin the week on Monday.  How can  do that?

    The first day of the week is controlled via Settings > General > International > Region Format, which also controls phone number and currency formatting - 'UK' is an example that starts on a Monday.

  • Calendar on iPhone; days begin on Monday instead of Sunday

    Hello,
    On my iPhone the days begin on Monday instead of Sunday, might someone know how to change it to begin on Sunday? I already tried doing it on iCal (on computer) but it only works for iCal, on the iPhone it still begins on Monday.
    Anyone run into this problem?
    Thank you,

    This is only since the new 2.0 software came out. I'm assuming this is a bug, and not a feature?
    Whatever it is, it's annoying. I keep thinking I'm looking at the wrong day, since I'm used to the week beginning on Sundays (as it does on every calendar I've ever seen).

  • My new icloud acct on my imac is duplicating entries in calendar from my ipad; how do I get rid of the duplicates and how do I get one calendar to be the main one to start with

    I've just installed Mavericks on my iMac and now my calendar has duplicate and now sometimes tripled events by syncing with my ipad mini regardless of whether the item already existed in the iMac calendar already. How do I remove the duplicates? It was being able to sync calendars and contacts which was one of my reasons for moving from Snow Leopard to Mavericks and now it's a mess.

    Crista70, What is happening is you now have 2 calendars with the entries in them. If you go into View, then Show Calendar List, you will see all your calendars. Uncheck the ones listed as "From My Mac" or uncheck the ones listed as "iCloud" and they will no longer show as duplicates. Personally, I prefer unchecking the "From My Mac" calendars so that my calendars are all synced across the devices.

  • How do I get a calendar to start displaying on the current month, instead of January?

    I'm helping to develop a scheduling application, and we want the current calendar month to display first, with the 'Previous' and
    'Next' buttons for preceeding and succeeding months. So far, we haven't been able to figure it out.

    Krishnamurthy has a workaround please see thread http://forums.oracle.com/forums/message.jsp?id=827915 for details

    Entourage will not sync with iCloud, not now, probably not ever, time to change.

  • How do I get my calendar on my ipad to sync with my calendar on my iphone 4s?

    How do I get my calendar on my ipad to sync with my calendar on my iphone 4s?

    I've done all of these things, and nothing is working. I understand how the cloud is supposed to work, and I understand how to sync via itunes. For some reason, the calendar is the only thing that isn't syncing.
    I have support on the phone now. We've figured out that if I make a calendar entry on icloud from my PC, it follows through on my phone and ipad. Same if I make the entry on my iphone - it follows to icloud on my PC and ipad. But when I make the entry on the ipad, it doesn't follow through to my iphone or icloud on my PC.
    I've had a tech walking me through all of this for about a half hour now. Can't figure it out. He's checking with his senior tech, has me on hold right now. It's looking like I may have to make a trip to my nearest Apple store, 45 minutes away.

  • The calendar week view on my iphone 4s starts on a Sunday.  I am synching with outlook on my computer which starts the week view on a Monday which I prefer.  How do I change my iphone calendar view to start the week on a Monday?

    The calendar week view on my iphone 4s starts on a Sunday.  I am synching with outlook on my computer (pc)  which starts the week view on a Monday which I prefer.  How do I change my iphone calendar view to start the week on a Monday?  I am in Australia.
    I have just noticed the other discussion points - mine is set to Australia. 
    Dear Apple - as the day that the week starts on can depend on country and religion - how about making it an option that the user can change????

    I believe the week view on the iPhone is handled by the Region settings in the phone. I am not aware of any other manner to change it, as you can with Outlook.

  • ¿How do I set the calendar to start week on Monday and not Sunday in my iphone?

    ¿How do I set the calendar to start week on Monday and not Sunday in my iphone?

    The jewish calendar does not have names for the days of the week. The week ends with the holy Sabbath (Saturday) and therefore the Sunday is the first days after Sabbath (Yom Rishon), the Monday the second day after Sabbath (Yom Sheini), etc.
    The Christians believe that Christ was raised on the first days of the week (Mathew 28:1, et al) AFTER the Sabbath was over. So their holy day is the Sunday and the working week starts on a Monday.
    The business days in the western world are numbered starting with the Monday as day number 1 (Timetables of Airlines, Calendars, even Microsoft Windows...).
    Unfortunately in the United States religious freedom extends to a level which is not understood easily by the rest of the world. Since the MAC OS X allows to change the first day from a Sunday to a Monday, one might wonder why Apple decided to give the iPhone a jewish touch.
    It could be supposed that this is the way of the least resistance. Only few complain about this issue, but if it were the other way around a lot of people would complain...
    PS: I agree with the others here: It is very, very annoying and more than once I entered an appointment into the wrong day...;-)

  • How do I get my calendar and contacts data to sync to computer?

    After instal of Maverick, iPhone data syncs to iCloud, but not to computer.  How do I get my calendar and contacts data to sync to computer?

    Sounds like your Mac is not logged into the same iCloud account that your phone is.  When Mavericks is installed it prompts you for an AppleID during setup. 
    Unfortunately and confusingly it then uses that AppleID to help you set up the Apple Store, iCloud, and Messages even though many users do not use the same AppleID for all of those services.  This is particularly true of familys that share one AppleID for the "Store" but use separate AppleID's for each users iCloud data.
    Therefore, put your iPhone next to your Mac and go to "Settings" > "iCloud".  Make sure that the iCloud account listed on your iPhone is the same as the one listed when you go to "System Preferences" > "iCloud" on your Mac.  If they match (or not) then click "sign out" on your Mac to disconnect the account.  Then, on the Mac (still in the iCloud preference pane), log (back) into the same iCloud account being used on your iPhone and enable the same set of services that are enabled on your iPhone (particularly calendar and contacts).
    Then, open the Contacts application on the mac and iCal on the Mac and walk away for a few minutes to allow the data to sync.  You may then want to create a test calendar event and change a contact to see if they sync up.
    One additional thought is to make sure that your iPhone is set to "Push" for iCloud. That will assure that it's syncing immediately while you are testing this.
    Hope this helps.

  • How do i get my calendar, which is on my ipad, onto my iphone? I lost my calendar after the upgrade today.

    How do I get my calendar, which is on my ipad, onto my iphone?  I lost my iphone calendar after the upgrade this morning.

    I have iCloud set on my iphone, ipad and mac. But, for some reason, my mac has no calendar and now neither does my iphone.  Fortunately my ipad has my calendar - but I must get that back on my iphone.  I haven't synced by ipad to anything manually - but I assume icloud should have everything.  When I added an appt on my iphone calendar - it immediately duplicated on my ipad.

  • The last update turned on iCloud. How do I get my calendar to sync with outlook now?

    The last update turned on iCloud. How do I get my calendar to sync with outlook now?

    iCloud wasn't on, I accepted iTunes offer to upgrade to 6.1.1.
    Next time I went to sync through iTunes, iCloud was on.
    Your advice appears to have solved my problem...for now.
    Thank you.
    Historically, the upgrade to 6.0 lost all of my contacts.
    A manual restore brought them back.
    Tech support said "Oh, that happens sometimes, you have to back up before upgrades", fortunately I do.
    Again, thank you for the help.
