How do i transfer 2011 Birthdays to this year (2012) in iCal

How do i transfer 2011 Birthdays to this year (2012) in iCal?
It seems I have to do it manually at the moment?

iCal and the Address Book are integrated.
If you want the birthday for each one of your contacts that you want to track birthdays for entered automatically in iCal every year - year after year without having to do anything extra, enter the birthday for each contact you want this for in the Address Book. In iCal preferences, select to show the Birthdays calendar. Done.
If not, keep doing it the way you have been doing it which will require copy and paste each birthday in iCal from last year to this year. Repeat for next year and the year after that. Or go into each Birthday event in iCal one by one and select repeat every year for the event. Have fun with that since your question is based on iCal only and you are not interested in learning anything new that makes this process easy and automatic. A contact's birthday should be entered with the rest of the contact's info in the Address Book, and Apple includes a simple option with one mouse click in iCal to bring the birthday entries for each contact in the Address Book over to iCal automatically each year - year after year. But pay no attention - your question is about iCal only.
Good luck.

  • Is it possible to transfer last year's birthdays to this year without re-entering?

    Is it possible to transfer last year's birthdays to this year without re-entering each one?

    If you enter someone's birthday in Contacts, it will show up in the Calendar as a recurring event.
    If you don't want to do that, you can change the existing event into one that recurs every year on the same date.

  • How do I transfer my library from this mac to a new mac

    How do I transfer my itunes library from this MacBook Pro to a new one?  I am using an iPod Touch...

    the simplest way, assuming all your media files are in the default location, would be to connect the two Macs with a firewire cable, boot the source Mac in Target Disk Mode, and copy the entire iTunes folder (not just the iTunes music folder) from <MacintoshHD>/users/yourname/music on the source to <MacintoshHD>/users/yourname/music on the target (overwriting the iTunes folder in place there).

  • - How to Display Sales Qty & Value for This Year & Last Year in 2 Columns -

    Dear All,
    I'm having trouble in extracting the last year figures based date entered. I'm actually would like to create a query where I'm able to know the "TOP 10 item sold based item category". I've created a query, which show the top10 item sold (total quantity & value) for this year, but not able to display the last year figure (quantity). Please advise & thanks for your help and time.
    SET ROWCOUNT 10
    SELECT T1.ItemCode, T2.ItemName, T3.ItmsGrpNam, SUM(T1.Quantity) as "Total Qty Sold", SUM(T1.TotalSumSy) as "Total Amount"
    FROM ODLN T0  INNER JOIN DLN1 T1 ON T0.DocEntry = T1.DocEntry INNER JOIN OITM T2 ON T1.ItemCode = T2.ItemCode INNER JOIN OITB T3 ON T2.ItmsGrpCod = T3.ItmsGrpCod
    WHERE T0.DocDate >='[%0]' AND  T0.DocDate <='[%1]' AND  T3.ItmsGrpNam ='[%A]' 
    GROUP BY T1.ItemCode, T2.ItemName, T3.ItmsGrpNam
    ORDER by SUM(T1.Quantity) DESC
    I wish to have the output as follow
    Item   Qty (2008)  Qty (2007)    Value(2008)   Value(2007)
    A       300             150               1000                      500
    B       250             300                 800                      650
    C       100             250                 700                      550
    Currently, My results display:
    Item   Qty (2008)  Value(2008) 
    A       300             1000                     
    B       250               800                     
    C       100               700

    Hi,
    if you want more flexible, you could try this modified Istvan's query:
    SELECT top 10 T1.ItemCode, T2.ItemName, T3.ItmsGrpNam,   SUM(T1.Quantity) as "Total Qty Sold",
      SUM(T1.TotalSumSy) as "Total Amount" ,
      (select sum (r.Quantity) from ODLN h
         inner join DLN1 r on h.DocEntry=r.DocEntry  
         where h.DocDate>='[%4]' and h.DocDate<='[%5]'
             and r.ItemCode=T1.ItemCode) '2007 Sold',
      (select sum (r.TotalSumSy) from ODLN h
         inner join DLN1 r on h.DocEntry=r.DocEntry  
         where h.DocDate>='[%6]' and h.DocDate<='[%7]'
             and r.ItemCode=T1.ItemCode) '2007 Amount'
    FROM ODLN T0 INNER JOIN DLN1 T1 ON T0.DocEntry = T1.DocEntry INNER JOIN OITM T2 ON T1.ItemCode = T2.ItemCode INNER JOIN OITB T3 ON T2.ItmsGrpCod = T3.ItmsGrpCod
    WHERE T0.DocDate >='[%0]' AND T0.DocDate <='[%1]' AND T3.ItmsGrpNam between '[%2]'  and '[%3]'
    GROUP BY T1.ItemCode, T2.ItemName, T3.ItmsGrpNam
    ORDER by SUM(T1.Quantity) DESC

  • Some of the entries in my address book show birthdays one day/year earlier in Ical. I cannot change this except by putting in the birthdays a day/year earlier than they are. Why is this happening only for some entiries and not others?

    Some of the birthdays I have entered in Address book appear in my Ical one day and one year earlier than the date I have given. Eg. I have entered a birthday in Address book as 23 March 2011 and it appears in Ical as being on 22 March 2010. Other names have no problems. There are only some that do not appear with the correct date and year. Why is this?  Has anyone found how to correct this strange problem?  I have Time Zones ticked.
    Bronze2011

    I'm having this exact same problem, but it's doing it with a bunch of birthdays. I also did 0001 when I didn't know the birth year, so I went back and did a more current year, but they still aren't showing up where they should be...or at all. It's completely bizarre.

  • How can I transfer dates and locations from excel file to iCal?

    how to input all those addresses into my Garmin as well.
    I can't help you with that one.
    Could have I also input somehow from excel to entourage and then ical??
    I don't think Entourage has the data detectors feature.

  • My Macbook Air which I bought this year (2012) randomly turns off. Is anyone else having this problem?

    Sometimes when I disconnect my MacBook Air from a power source, the screen goes black for a few seconds. It doesn't exactly shut off. If I push a few random buttons or the power button, it turns back on. Is anyone else having this issue? What can I do to correct this issue? It's very annoying!

    Many power related issues can be resolved by resetting SMC.

    Backup the library with this User Tip.
    Deauthorize the old computer if you no longer want to access protected content on it.
    Restore the backup to your new computer using the same tool used to back it up.
    Keep your backup up-to-date in future.

  • How do I transfer data to iCal?

    I am finally making the switch from my PC to Mac. The biggest stumbling block has been how I can transfer the data in my Daytimer program into iCal. Daytimer help file says to select ASCII to format export data. Can I get some guidance on importing data into iCal?

    Thanks!  I talked to Apple about this on the phone.  They helped me figure out to check the sync box for contacts, iCal, and then "merge info."  All of my music and videos will not merge over to the computer unless the data is formatted by Apple.  But at least I can get my contacts and my iCal events transfered over!  Thanks Apple for helping me with this issue.
