How do I link a Contact to a Calendar event?

When I set up a new Event in Calendar, I would like to be able to "link/sync" it to an existing Contact, simply to have info about the contact available without having to type in the Contact info again into the Event.
I do not want to send the Contact an email- in fact I may not even have the Contact's email.
I just want to be able to "link/sync" the Event with a Contact.
This seems to me to be a fairly basic and common thing to do - but I can not figure out how to do it.
Thank you.

I was looking to have it input the physical address information not the contact name & email address.
This way it would input the physical address in the Location field.
When I use my calendar app on my phone it is done this way, so I thought Thunderbird would be capable of the same function.

  • Can/ how do I link two or more "projects" - not events or clips - "projects" together in final cut pro 10?

    Can/ how do I link two or more "projects" - not events or clips - "projects" together in final cut pro 10?

    Thanks Tom -
    I created two "sequences". They are currently listed individually in the "project library". Now I want to take sequence "B" and attatch it in it's entirety to the end of sequence "A" - forming one long sequence.
    I have tried to drag sequence "B" and drop it into "A's" timeline. I have tried to creat a compound clip. I'm either missing something - or - you can create a compound "clip" or a compound "event" - but perhaps you cannot link to "projects" together.
    Does this help descibe my problem?
    Thanks again.

  • How do you add an attendee to a calendar event on the iphone 4

    I want to be able to add calendar events directly on my iphone 4 and add attendees to these events in the similar way I can do this with my
    Blackberry.  How does one do this?

    As for gdgmacguy, don't be so naive, of course Apple read every comment made on here, and my purpose for posting was pretty obvious, I thought I had missed the obvious ability to add attachments to typed out emails - thanks for the link to Apple feedback for the iPhone.
    High ranked members of these forums are occasionally invited to town hall meetings with the wonderful Apple employees that created and manage these forums. As someone who has been able to interact with them directly I can say for certain that there is only a handful of staff. The do not spend all day reading posts and they rely on community policing. Apple does however read every submission to the feedback channel.

  • Attach a contact to a calendar event?

    If I was to add an an event to my calendar (on iPhone) say "Call Bill". Is there a way to attach Bill so it is linked to his entry in my contact list. This way I could just click on him in my calendar event and call?
    Thanks!

    Can it sync contacts and calendars with my Mac or PC?
    Yes, it uses iTunes to sync with your Mac or PC. Apple says iPhone will sync contacts with Address Book and Microsoft Entourage on Mac, and with Outlook and Outlook Express on Windows, as well as a Yahoo! address book. iPhone's calendar may be synced with iCal and Entourage on the Mac, and Outlook on Windows.
    Can I enter calendar items directly on iPhone?
    Yes, and they are synced back to your Mac or PC calendar by iTunes. While all calendars can be viewed on iPhone, newly created items all go into the same calendar on your Mac/PC, much as iSync for mobile phones currently works.

  • How can I import 100s of *.ics individual calendar events & todo's from SL into ML Calendar?

    Hi,
    This question is RE a clean install of ML ... moving from SL (which I did a while back when the HDD with SL died - luckily I had a TM backup).
    I have a number of calendar events (including to-do's) that I need to transfer to the new ML operating system. I didn't get the chance to 'export' my calendar before my SL version died, but I do have a Time Machine backup. When I looked in the ~library/calendar folder, there are hundreds of individual events.
    Is there any way of copy all of these to my new calnedar in ML? What happens to the to-dos ... as the new calendar doesn't have to-do's and is replaced with reminders? How would I normally rebuild my Calendar in this situation?
    Thanks,
    M.

    Use Migration Assistant to transfer the user data from your backup to a new account, then export the calendars and reminders and import them in the existing account. After that you can delete the new account.

  • How can I drag & drop / copy & paste COPY Calendar event on iPad iOS6?

    How can I copy Calendar events on the iPad iOS 6?
    I have read various forums on this subject and have not found an answer on how to perform this basic function.
    To be clear, I am NOT asking how to drag &amp; drop MOVE an event, rather how to duplicate an event.
    In this way, I would not have to create a new event on a different date that is very similar to an existing one.
    If I have missed this in the manual just tell me where it is discussed and I will check it again.
    Thank you!

    Hi,
    I don't think it is possible to do that in iOS 5.
    Best wishes

  • How do I find out when a I calendar event was declined by it invitee?

    How do I find out the date and time a I calendar events invitation was declined?

    i'm not entirely sure about the new tab page - in principle it will use an algorithm which populates the slots based on the frequency & the recency of visits. however i think that sites removed from the history should also disappear from the new tab page (when i tried it it was at least true after i've restarted the browser once) - if this isn't happening for you then it might be some bug...
    in any case firefox won't have the proper features to reliably monitor your kids' browsing behaviour - they always can use private browsing mode where no traces will be left on the pc or manually "clean up" the history.

  • TS3999 How can I customize the repeats in a calendar event?

    How do I customize the repeat mode in Calendar?

    The are limited options when adding an event to the built-in calendar, as shown on the Repeat field when setting up an event.  If you want to create more complex recurrances you'll have to use a different calendar app that supports this, such as Week Calendar (https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/week-calendar-easy-powerful/id381059732?mt=8).

  • ICloud kills my data - again.  How do I fix my contacts and my calendars?

    I stupidly decided to link my devices via iCloud.  And this after I both lost contact data and gained 000s of unknown contacts after downloading OS 5.
    Yesterday , I naively thought it might all have been fixed.  But no!
    After all my contacts disappeared from Outlook, I killed that iCloud link.  They sort of came back.
    But when I use a distribution list on my PC, I get "an unexpected error has occurred".  Hitting properties tells me that the list has been deleted.  Of course, they have not.
    And I now have four calendars!  If I remove one, I lose my calendar entries - except for the birthdays for a stack of people I don't know.
    How can I make my distribution lists work?
    Thank you
    I should have accepted Apple help desk's advice to avoid iCloud.

    Find a computer with iTunes 10.5 and create a backup from the old phone and then restore from backup on the 4s.

  • How can i synchronize different contacts and different calendars with different iOS devices using the same Apple ID and iTune ID?

    I have the following situation. 1 Apple ID. 1 iTune account. I have 2 ipads and 2 iPhones
    1- I would like to have a set of 1 ipad and 1 iphone (mine) sharing the same contacts and calendar entries (synching from outlook)
    2- I would like to have another set of 1 ipad and 1 iphone (my wife's) sharing contacts and calendar entries but obviously these would be a different set of contacts and calendar entries than mine
    How can I set up my four devices to do this?
    Thanks for your help
    Cheers

    Have your wife log in to her user account on the laptop. Launch iTunes, then connect her phone to the computer with the USB cable. Sync. That should put back all apps and media. Since you already upgraded her to iOS 5 she'll have to manually enter all her settings and preferences, and organize her home screens.

  • How do I link a bytton to a mouse event on a canvas?

    Hi,
    I'm trying to write a simple drawing program that allows a user to click a button at the bottom of a frame, and then click the mouse on the canvas and produce a shape. eg: a button called 'square' allows a user to click their mouse on the canvas and produce a square etc.
    The problem is, I know how to create the shape on the canvas with a mouse click, and also how to create the buttons, but I currently can't seem to find out how to link them together so the button tells the mouse what to produce on the canvas.
    I'm a bit lost with Java at the moment and would appreciate any help.
    Many thanks
