How To: Enter non-time referenced event, eg, a birthday, etc.

I am finally beginning to use the Calendar on the iPhone (longtime Palm user). How do you enter something like a recurring birthday or an event/reminder that is not "time related?"
Many thanks.

I use Google for email, contacts and calendar and sync OTA using Google's free Exchange service. All the birthdays I have on each of my contacts on Google show on my iPhone calendar App. You can also set up recurring events with Googles calendar. Works terrific, and it's free!

  • How to show busy times from events in one caldendar in another calendar

    Hi all,
    I have the following scenario: I am managing two calendars in iCal, one with private events and one with work-related events. The private events are entered manually, the work events are synched with an MS Exchange server. How can I show the times of private events as busy in the work calendar? I want to avoid scheduling conflicts without showing the details of my private events to work contacts.
    Cheers,
    M

    Hi Brian,
    Its possible.
    Follow the procedure:
    Create a HTML page in KM, which will hold 2 links. Give names to these links and href as follows.
    Link1: http://<host>:<port>/irj/portal/iview1
    Link2: http://<host>:<port>/irj/portal/iview2
    Create KM Document iView (ABC) and provide path to document of this page.
    Now create another page in PCD (XYZ), and 2 iviews.
    Assign these 2 iViews on this page, but make them invisible on page.
    In iView properties change the property Quick Link as follows (as given above):
    for iView1: iview1
    for iView2: iview2
    Now open your role, create folder inside, and add KM Document iView (ABC). Open the properties of this iView in role and change the property, Initial state as Open, now it will open the KM document iView (ABC) in detail nav, and for opening page (XYZ) you must assign page to role, but make Invisible in Navigation areas to YES
    i guess this solves your issue.

  • How to enter floating time zone in iPhone?

    It is easy to enter a floating time zone in iCal, but I cannot find a way to enter a new appointment with a floating time zone directly into the iPhone. How is it done? I can find nothing on this in the iPhone Users Guide or on this forum.

    That means that the iPhone calendar is NOT equivalent to iCal. This is a big issue for me since travel is part of my work. My alternative is a Palm device where all appointments are "floating." The problem with Palm is that the other functions are not in the iPhone's league. I feel marooned in a spot where no PDA has it all.

  • Calendar - how to enter more than one event per date and show it in the Month display?

    I would like to enter multiple events (two, anyway) for a single day in the calendar.  I would also like that Month view to display the two events.  So far, all I've been able to do is enter a single event; in fact, only a single line for the single event.  If I enter in Notes, they're not displayed in the Month view.  Thank you.

    I assume that you are tapping the + sign to enter additional events and that is not working so try quitting the app and restart the iPad.
    Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.

  • How to enter non-ASCII symbols in a JTextArea

    A user asked me a question today that I have been unable to answer from a Google search or review of the Java documentation. If an application has a JTextArea and the user operating an American-style keyboard wishes to enter a non-ASCII character (a tilde, an accented e, an umlaut, a copyright symbol, etc.), are there key sequences that will allow him to do so? I was thinking that there might be some kind of alt key combination that would let him enter unicode values. Is anything like that supported?

    Thanks. I'd not heard of this technique.
    Throwback that I am, I'm running under Windows-XP. My results were a bit spotty, I'd be interested in hearing if anyone has different results.
    Microsoft describes two techniques for enterring "special" characters my typing numeric values. The best description I found was at http://www.windowsvistasecret.net/secret.asp?haber=54 Also, there is a page with a nice table of symbol values at http://www.irongeek.com/alt-numpad-ascii-key-combos-and-chart.html (the author recommends using alternate key codes for passwords, but given my mixed success with the technique, that seems a bit risky).
    Anyway, the first method is to turn the num lock on and then enter ALT followed by a three digit decimal code value for the character string (you must enter the values on the number keypad, not the main keypad). This seems to work great in a Java text field. There is an alternate method, where you can specify a hexadecimal unicode value by typing a string in the form U+00A9 and then pressing ALT-X. This requires a special registry setting which may not be the default on you computer. For me, at least, it works in WordPad, but not in the JTextArea.
    Finally, I think that the engineer at Microsoft who decided to name this technique the Alt<+>xxx key sequence had a pretty twisted sense of humor. You can guess what a Google search yields for "ALT XXX".
    Tomorrow, when I have access to a Linux machine, I'll have to revisit this. Thanks again for all your help.

  • How to enter the time from the jdbc application

    Hello,
    I have a problem while entering time from my jdbc application.
    I was entering time with TIMESTAMP but it is also entering the date,i want to enter only the time in to database from my application.

    Conceptal problem
    I doubt any database supports a data type that only takes a time. The most common data type always takes a date component and time component.
    That means it will ALWAYS have a date component.
    The solution is for you to write code that ignores the date part. That can involve something like using a fixed date for all entries, stripping to seconds, using SimpleDateFormat to display/parse etc.
    Or don't use a database data type that is time specific. Instead just use a integer and stored seconds from midnight. Or some variation of that.

  • Several Referenced Events. Why? And how to fix it?

    How do I fix this mess?
    And how do I avoid it?

    Don't see the reason why they link as referenced though. There are no files from those referenced events in the project. BUT when one event is renamed or moved the referenced file goes missing (for FCPX) - even when the file is not in that event?
    So I am just trying to understand why the "program is lying". It refers to events, as 1 clip used. But none are?
    Don't get me wrong, if everything is okay - it okay. But when files go missing because FCPX cannot find the referenced event - I got to wonder why..

  • How to enter time into iCal?

    iCal is supposed to have some type of natural language support.  However, I can't get it to consistently enter a time.  Most of the time it has the all day option checked.
    I've tried these formats:
    some kind of meeting @ 8a
    some kind of meeting @8a
    some kind of meeting at 8a
    However, randomly it will use the time and the all day option is not checked.  Does any one know how to make this work consistently?

    'AM' or 'PM' that's right for the start time. The app appears to make the ending time 1 hour later which would make sense. Of course, once the event is created, it can be edited. Not entering a start time will make the 'All Day' checkbox be checked since the app doesn't know it's not an all day event.
    EDITED: Also ran a test entering a new event like this: Meeting at 8am until 3pm. The entry in iCal was: Event name of Meeting     Time of 8:00am-3:00pm

  • HT200196 iCal reminders are clogging up my computers, iPads and iPhone.  When I view the Calendar list in iCal, it seems it has added a new calendar every time an event is added.  I have a calendar list that has grown to over 100.  How do I remedy this?

    My laptop, iPad, and iPhone are being clogged by repeated iCal alerts.  Every time an event is added, it seems another Calendar is also added.  When I view the Calendar list in iCal, there are over 100...and the number is growing.  They can not be deleted with a simple "Select all" or "Delete All" and, when deleted individually, the list quickly grows to huge numbers again rapidly.  How do I keep this from happening and eliminate the excessive number of calendars?

  • How to enter a new Date and Time each day in a Numbers Spreadsheet...

    Hi... I have finally decided to move away from Excel and really give Numbers a shot... I have an application where each day I first enter the current date and time into a particular cell of a new row and then I enter some data in cells adjacent (in the same row) as that entered date-time. Then the next day I want to again enter the (new) current date and time and add more data next to that new date-time and so forth day after day... You can't use something as simple as =NOW() because then everyday, ALL of the date-times would change to the current time... Nope, now what I want... I just want to be able to EASILY and QUICKLY enter the current date-time value in one call and then have that specific value stay there forever... In Excel, this is accomplished with the keyboard shortcuts of
    <cntl> followed by a semicolon (;) for the date
    then enter a single space (for separation of date versus time) followed last by
    <command> followed again by a semicolon...
    So all together that is,
    <cntl><;><sp><command><;>
    and that puts something like
    4/10/2010 9:49:00 AM
    in a single cell...
    That's what I now want to be able to do in Numbers...
    How do I do that??? Do I use the menubar item "Insert Date and Time" and if so, how exactly do I get the current time to show up in the chosen cell??? With formatting??? Is there a keyboard shortcut method like the one I mentioned that works for Excel?? I've perused the manual and though I found lots on date-time, I didn't see how to do specifically what I want to do... I likely just missed it as surely it must be easy to do...
    Any feedback would be much appreciated... thanks... bob...

    This may be the problem.
    The script is an old one which deciphered only the letter+digit cell references.
    Here is a new version which works with every kind of cell reference.
    --[SCRIPT insertDateTime]
    Enregistrer le script en tant que Script : insertDateTime.scpt
    déplacer l'application créée dans le dossier

    Il vous faudra peut-être créer le dossier Numbers et peut-être même le dossier Applications.
    Placez le curseur dans la cellule qui doit recevoir la date_heure
    menu Scripts > Numbers > insertDateTime
    La cellule pointée reçoit la date_heure.
    L'aide du Finder explique:
    L'Utilitaire AppleScript permet d'activer le Menu des scripts :
    Ouvrez l'Utilitaire AppleScript situé dans le dossier Applications/AppleScript.
    Cochez la case "Afficher le menu des scripts dans la barre de menus".
    +++++++
    Save the script as a Script : insertDateTime.scpt
    Move the newly created application into the folder:
    <startup Volume>:Users:<yourAccount>:Library:Scripts:Applications:Numbers:
    Maybe you would have to create the folder Numbers and even the folder Applications by yourself.
    Put the cursor in the cell which must receive the date_time.
    menu Scripts > Numbers > insertDateTime
    The pointed cell receives the current date_time.
    The Finder's Help explains:
    To make the Script menu appear:
    Open the AppleScript utility located in Applications/AppleScript.
    Select the "Show Script Menu in menu bar" checkbox.

  • If I enter the time of day as I am entering a new event, iCal automatically enters the time into the daily calendar and deletes the time of day from my entry

    Hi,
    This feature is new in Lion. I get what Apple is doing but I don't view the calendar in day mode. I use iCal exclusively in Month mode. Therefore, if I add an entry like "10:00am doctor's appt.," iCal will (correctly) assume the obvious, and enter the event as "doctor's appt." at the 10:00 am slot in the daily view. The trouble is, I don't look at the daily view, and I have missed a few appointments because I didn't realize what was going on.
    My best work-around right now is to use a semi-colon for the time. That way, iCal won't automatically assume I'm talking about a time of day. For example, I now write "10;00am doctor's appt." This way, iCal puts in on the monthly calendar exactly the way I wrote it, like it was doing in Snow Leopard.
    Is there a more elegant solution than using semi-colons for the time to counteract iCal's insistence on entering the time automatically into the daily view?

    Perhaps users in the iCal forum know of a solution?

  • How to Enter multiple inputs at a time in Form or Table

    Hi,
    I have one doubt in Webdynpro with java. How to enter multiple inputs at a time?
    For Exam My requirement is we will take employee details node under node empid, name, sal  etc some attributes is here
    Client asking like this enter multiple inputs at a time that data will saved in ECC System.
    1.     By using form how can enter enter multiple inputs at a time I donu2019t this so I will take table(here I will select input fileds). If any possible in form also tell me how I can enter multiple inputs at a time.
    In table suppose 6 rows available So He will enter
                             empid, name, sal  ,firstname, last Name
                             empid, name, sal  ,firstname, last Name
                             empid, name, sal  ,firstname, last Name 
    Like 6 time Click Submit. That data will save in ECC.
    So I was taken table. But in that Table only first row will be editable. I want all 6 will editable that time he will put data in rows then click on submit.
    How to editable these remaining rows? if u have any documents pls send me.
    Regards
    Vijay Kalluri

    Dear Vijay,
    To enter multiple inputs in a table and to make the other rows editable you have to provide that node with initial values.
    by initial values I mean you have to make that much space in your table node.
    For example the name of Node is  yourNode & you have empid, name, sal ,firstname, last Name
    attributes in that node, and you have to make 6 rows editable.
    Then, simply write this code in you wdDoinit() method of your view controller.
    IPrivateYourView.IYourNodeElement e ;
    for(int i = 0 ; i < 6 ; i++ )
    e = wdContext.nodeYourNode().createYourNodeElement();
    e.setAttributeValue("empid" , "") ;
    e.setAttributeValue("name" , "") ;
    e.setAttributeValue("sal" ,  "") ;
    e.setAttributeValue("firstname" , "") ;
    e.setAttributeValue("lastname" , "") ;
      wdContext.nodeOverTimeEnty().addElement(e) ;
    Change YourView with your view name & YourNode with your node name.
    If you have any problem in doing this you can revert back.
    Hope it helps!!
    Warm Regards

  • How to enter a Absence on a Non- working day?

    Hi All,
    In our company we dont have exact work schedule rules. So we have the need to be able to enter a Absence on a Non- working day for Salaried employees. when i try to enter an absencen on-working day, the number of hours are zeroed out.
    What configuration settings I need to do So that the system will take a Absence on a non working day.
    Thanks in Advance!!!

    Hello,
    I am having the same problem currently.
    When an absence that is less than one day is entered on a non-working day with a given start time and end time (we are using CATS for entering the times) along with some attendance records, there are collisions as the system tries to create the infotype 2001 record as a full day record, and the start time and end time is not taken into account, so we are not able to transfer these hours correctly to SAP HR.
    I checked all the settings regarding the day types, but could not find the trick..
    The days we are trying to create the absences and attendances for are not public holidays, just ordinary weekends with no working hours, so I don't think Holiday Class is relevant here at all.. 
    If anyone has a solution, please update the thread..
    Best regards,
