How do I get Siri to put appointments on iCal and not to Google Calendar?

When I give Siri the command to schedule appointment, the appointment is put on my google calendar and not my iCal. How do I change this?

See if you have selected your "iCal" calendar as your default calendar in settings (Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Default Calendar).

    how do i get siri to send me a reminder in a voice versus calendar
    I know I double click to see the icons at the bottom of all the applications that are open and running, but how do I close them so they do not keep using my battery power? 
    Thanks so much!

    You can't. Siri will launch the reminders app when you instruct her to set a reminder.

    Tap and hold down on one of the icons in the recents tray and all of the icons will wiggle and they will also have a red minus sign in the upper left corner of the icons. Tap the red minus sign to close the apps. Tap the home button again when you are done.
    Almost none of the apps that you will find in the recents tray are actually running and consuming battery power. I only close apps when the iPad starts to act a little funky - simply for troubleshooting purposes. I could have 50 or more apps in the recents tray at any one time. I get about 10 hours of use every day out of a full 100% charge of my new iPad's battery.

    Basically on my site when i go from a small screen to a big screen everything doesn't adjust to the screen size. I don't know what im missing

    Thanks in advance

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, or by a peripheral device. 
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem.  Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Post for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

    When I facetime the ipad (email address) it calls my phone. The accounts are completely separate. How can I get this to only call the ipad and not my phone as well?
    It calls both the ipad and iphone when calling the associated email address for the ipad. However, when I call the iphone it does not call the IPAD.
    Thanks for your help

  • How can i get my macbook pro too stay on and not sleep when lid is closed?

    how can i get my macbook pro too stay on and not sleep when lid is closed?

    If the machine is asleep, lid closed, and you plug in to an external monitor and an external USB keyboard, the machine will wake, anbd reconfigure the screen resolution for the external monitor, Once it has made this configuration change, you can open the lid and it will continue to address only the external monitor.  At least that's how my early MacBook Pro unibody 13" works. It seems to run a bit cooler this way. It gets quite toasty with the lid closed while doing anything demanding and you are more likely to hear the fan come on.  I have not seen any temps that would cause alarm, but I do get a high speed (6000 rpm), noisy fan sometimes with the lid closed, .
    If you operate in the open-lid, external monitor only mode, if you deactivate the monitor for any reason, when it reactivates it will be running both screens, with all the navigation hassles this entails, so I generally set it not to deactivate the screen when in this mode.
    Thus I agree with those who say that some of the cooling air is drawn in around the keyboard, the difference in cooling performance is observable.  If you activate istat pro, get the computer hot running in clamshell mode, and open the lid, you can watch the CPU temp drop by a few degrees C within a couple minutes.  It isn't a huge difference, but enough the lower the fan speeds.

  • How do I get SIRI to spell sarah with the H not sara when I am dictating to her

    ?

    Try this (example: Sean):
    Open the contact with Sean's name
    Tap Edit (at the top)
    Scroll to the bottom and tap Add Field
    Tap Phonetic First Name
    Type Shawn in the box (the exact spelling that Siri is using now)
    Tap Done
    Try getting Siri to spell Sean's name and see if it works now.  Assuming it does, repeat the process for the remaining names.

  • How do i get itunes to download on my external, and not my desktop?

    I've been trying to get iTunes to download in my external hard drive instead of on my desktop; but every time I download iTunes it starts downloading automaticly onto the desktop. I don't have enough memory on my desktop to transfer all my music onto their, so how can I get it to download onto the external instead? If anyone could help me with this problem I would really appreceate it.

    Download and install iTunes normally, launch it with the Shift key held down, and create a new library on the external drive.

  • How do I get siri to put emoji characters in text fields?

    I'm not sure if this is possible, but it would certainły be very handy if it is.

    I know Siri can read emoji characters.  Do a test message and say insert happy face and see what happens.

  • I have songs appearing as movies on my iTunes - how can I get these songs to appear as songs and not movies?

    Please help!
    I have random songs that are appearing in my list of movies.  I have tried deleting them and then redownloading them from the cloud to get them back into songs.  I am successful after redownloading, BUT
    ...once I close out iTunes and then reenter iTunes, the songs are reappearing as movies.
    PLEASE HELP!  This is crazy. 
    Thanks!
    -Zach

    I had exactly the same problem. Check that the tracks still appear in your iTunes folder under Music (they should if you've re-downloaded them from the cloud). Next, look in your Movies folder and the songs might appear as individual folders. Delete those folders, empty your trash and then delete the tracks from the Movies tab in iTunes.
    Hope this helps.

  • HT204053 Me and my daughter are sharing the same Apple ID, how do I get a separate id for face time and not be part of her group chats

    How do I have a separate address but still use the same Apple ID, so I don't have to share FaceTime or be part of her group chats

    Just delete her or your account from a device (iOS: iPhone/iPad/iPod Touch) in 1. "Settings > iCloud" (for Mail, Contacts, Calendars, Backup, etc.) + 2. in "Settings > Messages > Send & Receive" (for sms/iMessage) + 3. in "Settings > FaceTime" (for FaceTime). Then set up a new separate Apple ID/iCloud ID in "Settings > iCloud" and then sign in and use your new account for all three services.
    BTW you could still use and share one ID for iTunes and App Store purchases in "Settings > iTunes & App Stores" so that you won't have to purchase any content more than once.

  • How do I get iTunes to label my Films, Films and not Movies again?

    Having updated my iTunes to the latest version, I now have the label "Movies" again, whereas they were previously labelled "Films" - and I'm sure I did this by selecting 'British English' in Sys Prefs. I've done that, restarted, but I'm still having to watch Movies rather than Films - which is traumatic to say the least!
    Any ideas how to change to Films?
    VMT

    Chris,
    how did you select the language?
    When I open the Language & Text Preferences, and drag "British English" to the top of the list, and close the Preferences again, then restart iTunes, the Movies are called "Films" again.
    Regards,
    Léonie

  • My iPhone is synced to an old computer, how do I get it synced with my new one and not lose all the music?

    I recently had to rebuild my hard drive. When I try to sync my iPhone, the iTunes app won't recognize the phone and gives me the option of erasing the content on the phone and syncing to the library that it currently has. I don't want to lose the content on the phone but I do want to add content from the current library. Any suggestions? Or am I screwed?

    Two options available to you.
    Option 1:  If the computer your previous sync is available then you can do itunes home sharing.  Transfer the files and then sync to the new computer.  Setting up home sharing http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4620
    Option 2:  If the computer you were previously syncing with isn't available AND you purchased the music via itunes you can transfer the purchases.  Transfering purchases http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2554

  • I recently changed my password and firefox 5.0 is not remembering it. how can i get it to remeber the new password and not the old one?

    I had set firefox to remember my old password. at the point of changing to the new password, I was prompted whether to store the new password, which I did, however when I log in, it still remembers the number of characters in the old password.

    Did you check the password in the Password Manager ?
