How to make "weekday only" recurring event?

I am new user of the iPad and iPhone and noticed that I could not set recurring event to M-F only like my Blackberry had. Any recommendations from anyone?
Thanks in advance for any direction.

Two options:
First, check what you can do in your desktop calendar application. I can create such events in iCal on my Mac and they sync correctly to the Calendar app on my iPad and on my iPhone.
Second, the brute force approach. When all else fails you can create 5 separate repeating events, one each on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. Not the best option by any means but it does work.

Create one on the first Tuesday, select repeat/monthly and take the option at the bottom.

Do you happen to have Dial Assist on? This is in Settings>Phone. This is what helps the phone identify international numbers when dialing, based on location. See if turning that off/on makes a difference. Unless you are making a number of international calls, I believe this can be left off. See the User Guide http://manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1565/en_US/iphone_user_guide.pdf Page 49 has info regarding Dial Assist.

How do I print only the events of a particular calendar, and not all the days in between listed?

I am working on a MacBook Pro. I have multiple calendars in my calendar. I am able to figure out how to print a list of events for a particular calendar, but the list includes listing all the dates in between as well. For example, I'd like to print a list of presentations I have coming up over the next 5 months. That yields a 9 page document. Although there may be only one presentation on a particular page, it also lists all the calendar dates, even if it doesn't have an event. Does this make sense?
Does anyone know how to deal with this?
Thanks!

If you need to use a JFileChooser to select a folder, not a file, use:
JFileChooser jf = new JFileChooser();
jf.setFileSelectionMode(JFileChooser.DIRECTORIES_ONLY);
Now, your file chooser is a directory chooser....

How do I create a recurring event for the second Monday of every month?

I want to create a recurring event. It's an event that occurs the second and fourth monday of every month. I'd be happy to split this into two events if need be. The Custom repeat setting allows me to make the event occur every two Mondays. But some months have 5 weeks, so I need exactly, the second monday of every month.
(It's a bit annoying that things like this are so hard to do on iCal when MS Outlook does them so easily!!!)

Hi,
You can do this using the custom repeat in iCal. You'll need two events to cover the second and fourth Mondays.
Create the event on the second Monday of the month. In Repeat select Custom... > Frequency: Monthly > On the: second Monday.
Do the same for the Fourth Monday.

How To Expand And Display Recurring Events In Content Search Web Part?

I have a requirement to display all upcoming events. So I used content search webpart to display all the events, however the only problem is that I'm unable to expand recurring events all together. Is there a way to do this?
Vamsi Munagala

Hi Vamsi,
Per my knowledge, where is no OOB method to achieve your requirement.
As a workaround, we can customize a web part to achieve it, querying Recurring Events using CAML Query and display the results in a SPGridView.

HT200131 how to make sure only my laptop can connect to my apple tv?

I don't want to see my flatmate apple tv under "connect"
how to make sure I don't click on his tv accidentally and he won't be able to connect mine?
thank you!

Hey J-Justin,
Great question! You can name your Apple TV to differentiate it from others in the AirPlay list:
Apple TV: Change the name of your Apple TV - Apple Support
http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT200028
Furthermore, you can setup an onscreen code or password to restrict access for AirPlay. The password method sounds like the best option for your setup:
Apple TV (2nd and 3rd generation): Understanding AirPlay settings - Apple Support
http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT202618
Set a password
Go to Settings > AirPlay > Security > Password > [set password]. You can use this setting to require a password for AirPlay-enabled devices to connect using AirPlay on the Apple TV. Use this setting if your device will need permanent access and you only want to enter the password once.
Thanks,
Matt M.

ALV - how to make selectable only some rows on an ALV?

Hi my problem is:
I have an ALV GRID as output of a report.
I have to make selectable only few rows based on the contents of a field (showed in a column in the ALV).
Is it possible?
Best Regards, Vincenzo

I did understand, but as i told you there is nothing like that, neither an option nor an event to capture.
Here is the documentation: http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp2005vp/helpdata/EN/bf/3bd1369f2d280ee10000009b38f889/frameset.htm

Only recurring events sycing up - please help

My contacts sync between PC and Iphone just fine but the calenders are nt sysncing. The recurring events sync (green dots) but all new events/taks (purple dots) are not syncing. Please help : )

Welcome to the Apple Community.
First check that all your settings are correct, that calendar syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
The different colour dots indicate different calendars rather than different types of events.
Make sure the calendars you are using are in your 'iCloud' account and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud account (you can do this by clicking/tapping the calendar button in the top left corner of the application ), non iCloud calendars will not sync.
If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your calendars are in the iCloud account, you might try unchecking calendar syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling calendar syncing settings.

How do I set a recurring event for the last day of the month on iphone 4s calendar?

I want to set a recurring event for the last day of every month - regardless of the date/number of days in the month. I'd prefer not to have to use an app to do this.

Hi,
You can do this using the custom repeat in iCal. You'll need two events to cover the second and fourth Mondays.
Create the event on the second Monday of the month. In Repeat select Custom... > Frequency: Monthly > On the: second Monday.
Do the same for the Fourth Monday.

How do I delete a recurring event that appears on my iPhone's calendar, but not on my computers or iCloud?

I can click on the event in the iPhone's calendar, but the "Edit" option and "Delete" option are unavailable. The event does not appear on any other device or in iCloud. Am I destined to see this recurring event forever and ever? Is it an unkillable zombie that will shamble through the corridors of my electronic life in perpetuity?

Okay. Awesome! I feel like such a dodo that was so freaking simple!
Now I have another simple person question that feels stupid too but oh well apparently my brain doesn't like to work at 5 a.m. when I am in bad pain but...
Okay, so I've deleted them from my phone manually, they are already ALL on my mac, when I plug my phone back into my mac to sync music and any New photos, will the old photos that I deleted that are on the mac, go back on the phone? Der. I feel like I already know the answer, but I'm asking anyways...
Please, thank you, and sorry in advance!

How do I delete a recurring event that was sent from an outside source?

I have a number of recurring events that were added to the calendar from an outside calendar. A calendar that I do not have access to anymore. I wish to delete the entire series. Currently when I open the event I can not edit nor delete it. If I choose cut I am forced to cut each individual occurance of the event. Is there some way to delete the series?

you can try full re-sync of the calendar:
First you need to find out which account the offending calendar belongs to (you can find it in the event details)
then go to settings/main,contacts,etc...
Tap on the proper account
Then disable the calendar linked with this account (confirm deleting it from the iPhone)
Finaly re-enable the calendar and let it sync.
