How to move events in iCal

is there a way to drag events from one month to another without editing the event by hand?

I agree with this question, it drives me a bit nuts that I cant drag an event from, say, the week view, and drop it into the little calendars in the left hand column. Every time they bring out a new OS I check for it, and its never there. Its been in Outlook for years... why the heck Apple include it... end of rant.

  • How to annotate events in iCal?

    Hi all,
    I tried to search for this, but I couldn't find anything.  How can I annotate events in iCal?  For example, for a hotel reservation, I'd like to put in the address, the reservation number, etc.  Is there a place to do this? 
    Thank you!

    Whoops!  Aha, I see.  It's in the "note" field, isn't it?

  • How to move events from iMovie 10 to iMovie 9.0.2

    I haven't been having any luck using iMovie 10.  It keeps shutting my Mac down and rebooting it.  I thought adding more RAM would help and added another 8GB, but that hasn't fixed the issue.  I have now re-installed iMovie 9.0.2, but I have a project started in iMovie 10.  After the last reboot, I can find my events, but my project that was nearly finished seems to be gone.  So frustrating.  Can anyone tell me how to move my events from iMovie 10 to iMovie 9.0.2?
    Thank you.

    My OS is Mavericks 10.9.2 if that makes a difference.

    I'm afraid that its not possible to transfer projects form iMovie 10 to iMovie 9.
    Imovie 10 should not be behaving how you describe.  Are you short of disk space?  (You certainly have plenty of RAM.).
    If not I would consider re-installing iMovie 10.
    Another alternative would be to use Final Cut Pro.  You can easily transfer projects from Imovie 10 to FCP 10.1.  I have done this myself.  It is very similar to iMovie 10 but much more powerful and personally I have found it easier to use and more stable than iMovie 10.  Although it is not cheap, you can try it out free for one month.

  • How to delete events on iCal that were created many years ago with a MobileMe account?

    I have never ending recurring events on iCal that I created years and years ago with my MobileMe account.  I don't have access to that email anymore, unfortunately.  Is there any way to get rid of these silly things?

    Navi,
    What Calendars are listed in your sources pane?
    Where are they located?
    Are you using iCloud?
    Backup that specific calendar using Calendar>File>Export>Export..., and save the copy to your Desktop.
    What happens if you attempt to delete that specific calendar?

  • How to create events in iCal

    I know we can create events (like birthdays, anniversary etc.) from address book and sync it with iCal. What i want to know is how do I create an event (b'day, anniversary etc.) for a person who is not in my address book.

    Greetings,
    Create the event (just like you would any event) and set the repeat to every year and add it to the calendar of your choice:
    Hope that helps.

  • How to move Event (not necessarily connected to Projects ) and projects to new external drive

    I am running Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and iMovie11 9.0.4 have a had very stressful time trying to clear down the Movies folder from my internal drive and get it across to a new external hard drive, as my 700gb drive on my 2009 iMac is practically full. I have taken a full back-up and also created a new 1.5 TB partition on the external drive. However I do not know how to get the Events and Projects across, and for iMovie to know that every thing is now on the new drive.
    Initially I copied the 2 folders using finder, which seemingly worked but then I discovered that iMovie did not display the the new events, so I deleted the 2 folders from the external drive and tried manually moving the events in iMovie. This was very slow, with lots of spinning wheels and eventually iMovie crashed. So I moved the new Event copies I did manage to create into trash, but still iMovie was crashing.
    I then, thinking something had become corrupted, I  tried to restore the Events folder and Projects folder from my backup, but that did not work as I got a message saying the there was not enough space to do the copies (why does it need extra space as I assume it would be overwriting the existing folders ?). So in desperation I did some forum searching and ended up deleting the com.apple.iApps.plist. Now iMovie seems to be working fine, and is displaying al the events from my internal drive (I have ejected all other drives), and I am back to square one (hopefully), however for some reason the 'month' folders I had previously created in each Event 'Year' have disappeared and all the, for example 2013 events, are now under the 2013 folder with no Month sub folders( I assume this is something to do with the preferences I had deleted ?)
    I am hoping someone can direct me on the right path for getting the Events (not all of which are used in Projects) and Projects across to the new external drive, so I can free up space on the internal drive (and install Mountain Lion - my end goal).
    I have been  trying to do all this since 0600 this morning, so if anyome can help it would be very much appreciated.
    Jim (now grabbing a much needed beer !)

    Do the external drive show up in iMovie 11?? I just drag and drop in iMovie and don't touch it or change in finder.

  • How to move events on iMovie 10.0.3 to external hard drive?

    I recently just updated from iMovie '11 to the newest version 10.0.3. I still have a lot of old events I'd like to move to an external hard drive but can't seem to figure out how. I'm running low on disk space and need to get this resolved asap.

    Hello there, ssegy10.
    The following link to the online iMovie Help menu provides the information on how to accomplish what you're asking:
    Work with multiple libraries
    http://help.apple.com/imovie/mac/10.0/#mov3fa25bae7

    Connect a storage device that contains the target library to your Mac, or copy the target library to your Mac.
    Choose File > Open Library, and choose an option from the submenu.You can choose from recently opened libraries, locate an existing library on your Mac, or create a new library.The selected library is opened in the Libraries list, with the first event selected and its contents displayed in the browser.
    In the Libraries list, select the event that contains the item you want to move or copy.
    In the browser, select the item you want to move or copy.Tip:  To select multiple clips or projects in the same library, hold down the Command key as you click the items you want to select, or drag a selection rectangle around the items.
    Do one of the following:
    To move items between events or libraries: Drag the clip or project to another event or library.
    To copy items between events or libraries: Option-drag the clip or project to another event or library by first starting to drag and then holding down the Option key as you drag.

  • How do merge events in iCal?

    This is probably not possible, but I have by some circumstance two calendars for my classes. For instance, I have Classes and then I have Class Schedule. The Classes calendar gives me the agenda for my classes but they're all-day events (for instance Chemistry). The Schedule calendar would then tell me that I have "Block 3" (Chem class) from 2-3. Is it possible to make the Chem calendar replace every event that is named Block 3 in the Schedule Calendar, and so on?
    Thanks

  • How to delete events in iCal on Mac, but not from iPhone

    Hi everyone,
    I have a reminder set to my phone for something everyday which is great because it's the first thing I look at in the morning. But I don't want this event plastered all over my iCal on my computer as it's unnecessary to see it there. But of course, since I sync my iPhone with this computer, it always ends up there too.
    Is there a way to sync only certain events, but not all of them? Sometimes I want to do the opposite, where I need to see a reminder on my computer for work, but don't need it popping up on my phone.
    Thanks for any help you can give!

  • How can I move an event in ical to another calendar without ical resending the event invite to everyone

    I have 2 microsoft exchange calendars that I use for work. One is provided by my company, the other is provided by a customer that I do contract work for. The customer prefers to send invites to my email address provided to me by them. Which means that the invite appears on the exchange calendar provided to me by the customer.
    That's fine, but I would like for the event to appear on my work calendar so that I can get reminders on my iphone (long story short, the customer does not allow me to connect to their exchange server via my iphone due to security reasons).
    So, I go into iCal, open the event and change the calendar for the event. Unfortunately, that causes iCal to resend the invite to everyone involved in the event. This causes alot of confusion, obviously, as now everyone is wanting to know why I sent an invite for an event that is already scheduled.
    How can I move events to another calendar without iCal sending another invite to everyone?

    If you change anything in a repeating calendar entry it will give you the option of disconnecting it from the series. So may any random change, choose to not change the series.

  • 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!

  • Ical keeping both events when I move events from one google calendar to another

    Hi all!
    I use multiple google calendars and sync them with my iPad, iPhone, and MacBook Air. I like to move events from one calendar to another (for color coding purposes), and am coming across a unique issue that I hope someone has a solution to.
    When I edit an event by moving the event from one calendar to another the events show up correctly on the iPhone and iPad, but not in my iCal on MacBook Air. (Only when I make the changes on my iPhone and iPad). For example, when I switch an event originally created in my 'appointments' calendar to my 'done' calendar the event shows up appropriately on iPhone and iPad, and even in my Google calendars on the web. But, the iCal on my MacBook Air keeps both events. This only happens when I make the changes from the iPhone or iPad. If I make calendar changes on my computer, then there are no hiccups on any of the devices.
    It seems like a syncing issue with iCal, and I can't figure out how to prevent the duplications in my iCal on my computer from showing up. Quite annoying because I have to go in and delete all of the duplicated events on the computer at the end of the day.
    I have the Mavericks OS on my MBA and the software on my iPad and iPhone are updated to the latest software.
    If you have any suggestions, please let me know! Thanks!

    Petrill,
    Thank you. I was trying to do that yesterday, but it was grayed out. It seemed to work alright today.
    Thanks,

  • How to do i set or change colors for different events in iCal

    When i create a new event in iCal i want to assign it a specific color just like i do in Outlook under the heading of "Categorize". how do i do that in iCal and cna i do multiple colors like i do in Outlook?

    OK... got it... I use Microsoft Exchange set up by a 3rd party so i guess that is what the e-mail one is. I still use Outlook but eventually want to simplify. Right now i go back and forth between Outlook and iCal because Outlook still seems better to me. But hoping to have an open mind and find out how to use iCal more effectively. But i wonder if the local calenders are synced with the e-mail account. Is there anyway to move and/or combine the local calendars with my e-mail one so i have it all under "one roof" which means i can access all of it on my iphone, ipad, and computer and not have them appear as if thy are seperate?
    Thanks.

  • How do I select multiple events in iCal 8.0?

    In OSX Mavericks, I used to be able to select multiple events in iCal in the event list view. I could select the initial event in the span of events to be selected. Then hold Shift while selecting the final even in the span of events. As a result, all of the events in that span would be selected.
    in OSX Yosemite, this is no longer possible. There appears to be no list view, and holding the Shift button does not allow me to select a span of events.
    What is the best way to select a span of events, say as much as 30 events?
    Thank you.
