How to I get iCal to open on login (not just startup but also open a new window)

I have added iCal to the startup on login in user preferences but it only starts the program, what I am trying to achieve is it startup and open a new window for me to review my daily calendar as soon as I login to my computer.

Thank you, "the-edmeister" -- You render a great service, one that lifts my spirits.
Your answer also taught me to be a little more persistent, as I had started looking at Preferences, and just didn't notice the icons (including Applications) at the top of that window that would have led me to my answer.

  • How can I get Firefox 12 to honor "Do not preserve zone information in file attachments" in Windows 7 x64 Group Policy?

    Every time I download a file, any file, .jpeg, .png, .exe, anything, Firefox ignores the group policy setting and I have to "unblock" every single download.
    This also applies to pictures I right-click on and "save image as," not just download with the download manager.

    I fixed it. I remember the same issue happening in Firefox 3 and comment #3 at https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=499448 gives a workaround. I had to have all 3 values set the way comment #3 explained to get Firefox to not save zone.identifier information.
    Maybe open a new bug report?

  • How do I get iCal to display my event notes when working on my MacBook?

    I just got an iPad 3G (which I love) and am bothering to use iCal for the first time. So far, it seems to be going well. The only disappointment is that when I view iCal on my iPad, I can see the notes attached to each calendar event. However, when I view the same calendar on my MacBook, I can only see the list of events. To view the notes, you have to double click every event, which seems really counter-intuitive and a complete waste of time (why enter a note if you can't see it)? Is there a way way to get my notes to display in iCal on my MacBook? What am I missing? Thanks for your help!!

    The iPad has the same calendar views as the MobileMe (paid) calendar. The great looking calendar is not available on any other apple machine to my knowledge.
    I purposely updated my MobileMe to get that calendar, not realizing that doing that update took away the ability to publish/share my calendars with family members or friends who weren't MobileMe users. So I got a pretty calendar and lost all the sharing functions I needed. Major dislike.

  • How do I completely uninstall apps from my phone not just delete but do when you reinstall the game it start from the beginning?

    I got a game on my phone that I have completed but I want to start from the beginning again so how do I uninstall it to do that?

    Call AppleCare & ask to talk to "Account Security". They will fix while you're on the phone.

    It used to work and now it doesn't.
    I am not on MobileMe or the Cloud.

    Hi Arezzo
    I'm asuming you are using iTunes then to sync? this can be done over WiFi or the USB cable.
    Review your setting for the calendar sync once iTunes is open and your iPhone is connected. Make sure your Calendars are selected to sync that you need. By default all calendars will.
    So the option i have for you is to reset the sync service and this will reset those settings in iTunes. Meaning that you will have to switch them on again in iTunes to sync. But this mostly clears unresolved sync issues.
    Please do yourself a favour and hit backup in iTunes before doing any testing. iTunes will then keep a local backup of your iPhone in case of any data loss.
    {added}
    open Terminal from your Utilities folder and paste this command in to reset. OS X 10.6 - 10.8
    /System/Library/Frameworks/SyncServices.framework/Versions/A/Resources/resetsync .pl full [press Enter]
    if it prompts for a password, just type your password and hit [Enter] again.
    Open iTunes then set your syncs up and it should then carry on again.

  • How do you get ical to show on your home screen?

    How do you get ical to show on your home screen? I deleted it from my homescreen (somehow) and i want to get it back.

    Just open the International preferences panel, go to Times, Customize, and click on the leftmost number (hours). A small triangle lights up, and a pop-up list of various formats opens. Just select the one you like (1-24 or 01-24). Make sure to set the Date & Time preferences to 24-hour clock first.

  • How can I get iCal not to show the same birthday dates from my iCloud

    How can I get iCal not to show the same birthday dates from my iCloud?

    You don't need them stored locally for a backup. You can manually export your contacts as archive for backup. Also, if you are backing up with Time Machine, you already have a backup. If your hard drive crashed, you would have to rely on your backup or iCloud anyway.
    So, if you're comfortable with that, sign out of iCloud. Choose to delete contacts from the computer. When you sign back into iCloud, you should only have iCloud contacts listed in AB. When you open iCal, you should only have one listing for birthdays.
    The other alternative is to disable the Birthday c.alendar and create one manually.

  • How do I get ical to stop popping up every time someone accepts an invitation

    How do I get ical to stop popping up every time someone accepts an invitation?
    Every time I get an someone accepts and ical invitation, the iCal app pops up over everything on my screen. I cannot find a way to turn off this behavior and it's amazingly disruptive.
    I do still want to be notified about up-coming meetings, and I still want invitations emailed to me to populate in my calendar, and I still want ical to capture if people have responded to my events…I just don’t want my calendar to take over my screen every time they do. 
    There does not seem to be anything in preferences that addresses this.
    HELP!

    This infuriates me too - I am really keen to find an answer to this! The notifications that appear 'Growl-like' in the top right corner are fine, it's the fact that iCal takes over the entire desktop and prevents me from working that really annoys me! Please, how do I turn that off?

  • How do I get iCal onto my dock?

    How do I get iCal onto my dock?  I currently have to log into Mobile Me each time I want to check my calendar.  I used to be able to click on the iCal icon on my dock.  However, when I updated iCal a couple months ago, it did not update/sync with the iCal on my dock. I've tried draggin the iCal icon from the applications menu onto my dock, but that did not give me my calendar from Mobile Me.

    Try to see if you can update the iCal on the dock (click software update). Also, is it possible to sync calendars? If so, then I would also suggest that. If all else fails, try restarting your computer.
    Hope tis helped!:)

    Ho do I convert my Elements 5 Catalog to Elements 13 which I just purchased.  I followed one of the tutorials and converted my Elements 5 Catalog to a "pse.13db" file.  How do I get Elements 13 to recognize that converted file?  When I open Elements 13 Catalog Manager and browse to the correct location, it doesn't show the file.  Help!  Thanks

    Bumps a écrit:
    Yes - I can run both versions on my PC.  But I really would like to have all of my pictures in the same catalog.
    You can't merge catalogs (even PSE13 ones) in any PSE version (only LR can do that). So, converting catalogs is not the solution to your problem.
    Since you have PSE5 working on your computer and your images also, the solution is to 'write metadata to files in PSE5) and to re-import the images in the PSE13 catalog. That won't duplicate your image files and you'll lose albums/collections, stacks and version sets, but you'll recover tags, captions and ratings.
    To be able to re-import the files indexed in PSE5, you may have to move them to a new master folder.
    I am not sure what your problem with the conversion may be. It's quite possible that the resulting catalog.pse13db is ok and that the issue lies in the ability to open it in the PSE13 organizer.
    As stated by dj_page, double clicking on that file should open the organizer with the new catalog. You could test that by creating a dummy catalog in PSE13 and importing a small batch of photos. Locate the path of the catalog with the menu Help/system info. Copy the catalog.pse13db in another folder and the 'double click' way to open the organizer with that moved catalog database.
    For other users that may be interested in using PSE5 (issued in 2006) on newer OS, here is a useful link:

  • Error 404 - how do I get rid of this message on my Google page when I open Safari?

    How do I get rid of error 404 on my Google page when I open Safari?

    Safari - Reset Safari - choose all options and reset Safari.
    If that does not work then check to see what Safari extensions you have installed, one or more may be creating a problem.
    Another possible fix is restarting in Safe Mode which clears some caches, one or more may have become corrupt. To restart in Safe Mode simply hold down the Option key when you hear the startup tone until a progress bar appears. Then test Safari and then restart normally.
