How do I remove ghost Calendar events?

My iPod Touch 3rd Generation is synched to a MacMini. Both devices have the latest version of iCal.
Last year (2011), I tracked my work schedule, including commuting time & method. For example, I met my vanpool at 0400 every day. Thus, I had daily events reflecting my work & commuting schedules.
Presently, I continue to track work & commuting events. The MacMini iCal application simply shows the correct schedule events.
However, the iPod Touch shows the current events PLUS the previous events, e.g., vanpool commitments, overlayed (there's a 30 minute starting differential; this is how I've recognized the difficulty).
Why don't the ghost events appear on the MacMini iCal?
How do I eliminate the ghost calendar events from the iTouch?
Thanks!

Hi charleshmoran,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
Yes, the Calendar app on your iPhone can go back in time much earlier than 1949. You might want to create a new calendar called Historical Events to organize these entries. I'm including links below for creating a calendar at the iCloud website:
iCloud: Create a calendar
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2674
iCloud: Create events
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2681?viewlocale=en_US
Calendar at a glance - iPhone
http://help.apple.com/iphone/7/#/iph3d110f84
In the example above, you see the month of June in the top left corner. Tapping on June would take you to the "Year View." Swipe down on your iPhone screen and you can go back to 1949. Tap on a date to create a new entry.
I hope this information helps ....

How can I remove dropdown calendar menu from date/time field.

I set up a javascript calculation based on the input of a date field. As long as the user enters the date manually the script works fine. If user attempts to select date by drop down menu then script will not work. How can I remove the calendar feature from the Date field?

You may have to wire custom script to get you what you need. That would probably work on 'exit' event.
Just you give you better Idea here is some thing I have on a date field. If user types his own date instead of picking from calendar this code checks whether it is valid date or not and returns to the same field either they enter valid date or clear the field.
This is FormCalc script. You may get the idea how this works and make it work for you using the same logic either in FormCalc or JavaScript.

How do I move google calendar events to iCal?

how do I move google calendar events to iCal?

ab1268,
I'm trying to do this very thing. I have multiple google calendars set up (one for each kid, my husband etc.). I want to move to iCal exclusively. Based on your note above, should I export each individual calendar within ical. Remove each from the iCal account and then reimport then into ical? I suppose the risk is low b/c the data still exists in google.
Please advise - I would hate to misstep. Very new to the apple world (aside from iphone / ipad).
Thanks!

How can i import my calendar events from google calendar to ical?

how can i import my calendar events from google calendar to ical?

To set up CalDAV support for Google Calendar in Apple's iCal, follow these steps:
Open Apple iCal, go to Preferences and then the Accounts tab.
Click on the + button to add an account.
In the box that pops up, enter a description for the account and your Google Account username and password.
Under Server Options, add the following URL:
https://www.google.com/calendar/dav/[email protected]/user//www.google.com/calendar/dav/[email protected]/user
Replace '[email protected]' with the email address that you use to log in to Calendar. Make sure to include the '@domain.com' portion (which is @gmail.com for Gmail users) in this section.
DO NOT substitute your username for 'user' at the end of the URL.
Leave the Use Kerberos v5 for authentication option unchecked.
Click Add.
Under the Delegation tab, select the calendars you'd like to add to iCal by checking the boxes next to them. You may need to hit refresh to get the latest list of calendars.
Add your email address to your Address Book card by selecting Add Email. You'll be prompted to add your email address only if your address is not already in your Address Book.
You won't be able to invite or email guests to Google Calendar events within iCal if your address is not in your Address Book.
Your Google Calendar will now appear in iCal's list of calendars, and changes you make to your Google Calendar in iCal will be reflected when you sign in to Google Calendar.
Event information will automatically refresh every five minutes. You can change this interval by opening the iCal > Preferences > Accounts menu and selecting a new refresh interval under the 'Refresh calendars' drop-down. Keep in mind you can also force a refresh by selecting a calendar and pressing the Apple and R keys at the same time.
Calendars that are checked but disabled have already been added to iCal - you can remove them from within iCal.

How do I delete a calendar event in my iphone?

How do I delete a calendar event in my iphone? It allows me to "edit" the event but not to totally delete it. Or at least I can't seem to find a "delete" option anywhere!

Did you create the event somewhere else? A lot of time when u create it on lets say PC or mac, you wont be able to edit it unless its from the same device.
Its also possible its created under a mail account. I would suggest making all your events via icloud, then u should be able to edit it on all platforms regardless on which device made the event.

I have downloaded IOS7 on my iPhone and all calendar events have disappeared. The general functions of the calendar have changed and are definitely not 'user friendly'. How can I retrieve my calendar events. Will Apple improve the calendar function

I have downloaded IOS7 on my iPhone and all calendar events have disappeared. The general functions of the calendar have changed and are definitely not 'user friendly'. How can I retrieve my calendar events. Will Apple improve the calendar function or revert to the previous system. Even the typing function on IOS 7 is faulty - very slow to respond to the keyboard. I no longer enjoy using my iPhone. Can anyone assist. Thank you

Very strange! All of my calendar events have reappeared. This has happened one week after downloading iOS 7
The calendar however, is not easy to use.
The typing function on the phone has become even slower. Have to wait for each letter to show on screen.

How do I set up calendar events that will be for another time zone? My events shift once I travel

How do I set up calendar events that will be for another time zone? My events shift once I travel. The same is true when I am traveling and in another time zone, how do I best set up my events so they are in the correct time slot upon my return?

Basically, if your client does not have a Mac then don't use iWeb to create the site. iWeb is Mac only and if a client wishes to make alterations, then they need the domain file.
If your client needs to update on a weekly basis, then why not consider using one of the online website creation packages where you can log in from any Mac or PC. This would be simpler and there are lots out there - Microsoft Office Live or Google or something like http://www.wix.com where you can create a site and use a domain name with it.
Look at the alternatives before using iWeb.

How do I remove duplicate calendars from my iPod Touch?

I just synced iCal with my iPod after removing mobile me and now I have duplicate calendars on my iPod Touch. How can I remove these calendars? My iPod has one set of calendars that is called "On my iPod Touch" and another set (exactly the same) called "untitled account". I'd like to remove the untitled account and I would like to know if there's something I should change to avoid the duplication in the future. Thanks.

If the calendar still exists in iCal, delete it there and then sync your iPod. That should eliminate the extra calendar(s).
If that doesn't do it, make sure iCal is setup the way you want it and then do the following:
1. With your iPod recognized by iTunes, click on the Info tab in iTunes.
2. Scroll to the bottom of the page
3. Check the box on the application that you want to overwrite data on the iPod
4. Sync your iPod
That box will not stay checked so you don't need to worry about accidently doing it again.

HT4528 How do I recover my calendar events? How about downloading audio books?

Since the latest iOS 7 upgrade, I HATE my iPhone! I was able to recover my contacts. I was not able to recover my calendar events.
How do I recover my calendar events?
I have an appointment tomorrow & can't remember necessary info!
How about downloading audio books?
I am not able to download an audio book, which I have done for a very long time w/o issues. Have any suggestions?

When I synced, & recovered the contacts, the calendar recovered events (as current) that I had deleted last winter.
I check out audiobooks from the local library & download them using OneClickDigital Media Manager. It goes thorugh iTunes to get the book onto my phone. It shows up pale in iTunes (All other items are in bold print.) & the book does not show up on my phone at all.

How do you remove duplicate note events 1 or to ticks apart ?

How do you remove duplicate note events 1 or to ticks apart ?
my keyboard was putting out doubled note events durring a session.
But the note events are between 1 and 3 cliks apart.
in other words 1 might be at 1 3 151 and the other duplicate at 1 3 153
So remove duplicate events does not work.
I dont want to have to quatize all events either.
thanks

Logic X

The only other option I can think of that may help you is the select highest/lowest notes.
This will select the top or bottom notes for any notes that are overlapping.
the key command is :
**** up ( highest ) or shift down ( lowest )
It may work on some blocks of notes, but it's a bit hit and miss.
Other than that it's a manual editing job I'm afraid

How do I delete a calendar event (repeating daily forever) that I accepted on my iPhone from a mobileMe iCal invite?

Hi,
I'd like to know how to delete a calendar event from my iPhone4 (iOS 5.1) calendar. The event was sent to me from a mobileMe synced iPhone4 (iOS 5.1) calendar and for some reason it was set to daily repeat forever.
The event has been deleted from the originators calendar now, but the result has not been propagated to my calendar, despite an update being sent out. When I attempt to accept it just hangs and doesn't update in my calendar.
More annoyingly, the event doesn't have an edit button in my calendar, so I cannot delete it (and all other occurences) myself.
Any ideas on how to remove it?
Thanks,
Rich

A workaround. Not perfect but it gets rid of it.
Do the below link's steps and then deselect that calendar from view.

How can I forward a calendar event that I did not create?

I can't see a way to forward a calendar event, when I am not the event creator. How is this done on an iPhone or iPad?

There is an app that allows this - called Forward My Meeting. It allows you to forward any meeting in your calendar from the iPhone or iPad.
I may receive some form of compensation, financial or otherwise, from my recommendation or link.
