How to set up recurring events in iCal on OS X Mavericks?

I've just downloaded Mavericks and in iCal, recurring setting option is no longer there. This was a very convienent feature. Any help would be awesome!

If you create a new event under Calendar in Mavericks 10.9.1 - Using the month display and double clicking on the day window, an info box pops-up.
So far, so good...
There is no mechanism to "add an alert' -- the only options are "Add Invitees" in one group then Add Notes, Add Attachment... and Add URL.
This is where you lost me...
because, as is plain to see, there is an option to add an Alert, just as there was in my screen shots from 10.9 above.
Another problem -- If you right-click on the event IN the day window, an option to "duplicate" the event pops-up, but that event created appears in that same date and time with no option to provide a new date and time.
Instead of choosing "Duplicate," choose Get Info. This will open an Info window in the upper left...
Click on the date in that Info window...
and when the Date field expands (gray area, below), click on the date again, and you will be able to change the date and time of the event...
You're welcome in advance!

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 to create a recurring event that ends on a certain date

How do you create a recurring event in Ical that ends on a certain date?? I have an event on my calender that happens every week same date and time but will end in a couple of months.

Create an event. Edit it. There is an option in the edit window for "Repeat". Once you set how often the event repeats you get an option for "end", which is where you can specify, well, the end.

Deleting a recurring event in iCal

Situation; iphone 5 recurring event wont delete. looking at same calendar on a synced PC (work) the event is not there at all.
If you are having trouble deleting a recurring event in iCal try this:
on your iphone change the event "alert" or "show as" setting on one of the events in the future. The event that wasn't showing on the PC outlook calendar magically shows up now. delete it from the PC by opening it and choosing the X delete for all occurances (if its asks).
Now open the event in iCal and you should see the Accept Maybe Decline option at the bottom - choose decline. you may have to do this on several dates, but that should delete the event.
Hope this helps.

... or whoever may find this post in need of assistance as I was.
I just had this same problem and successfully deleted ALL event (past and future)instances by :
1. Click on any instance of the event in the calendar
2. Select "Delete" from the iCal toolbar "Edit" menu.
3. The iCal propmt asked me to choose to delete all or just the one instance.
4. Naturally, select to "Delete all occurrences"
I am running OS 10.6.8 iCal 4.0.4

You'll add items one at a time by clicking New Item on the
New menu. Then you'll enter the item's details in a form. One other thing we should mention: It's easy to create recurring items, such as a weekly staff meeting. You do this by selecting the
Make this a repeating event check box and then setting the item's recurrence pattern (for example, for a weekly lunch meeting you would set the pattern to weekly).

The Recurrence Data field is unique to the Event Content Type. I don't see any way to add it to an existing list. You would need to recreate your list using Calendar list as the base if you were to use this approach.

How can i delete an event on ical without notifying

Hello
how can i delete an event on ical without notifying. All I want to do is delete the event and not notify anyone.
Thanks

I was just experiencing this problem on Mountain Lion. The calendar I wanted to delete was on iCloud. So, I logged into iCloud from a web browser, and selected Calendar. On the current incarnation of iCloud Calendar the calendars are listed on the left. I selected the "Edit" link at the top of that list and chose delete. It indicated that the items would be deleted, but there was nothing about notifications. Then, when I went back to iCal on my Mac, I selected the calendar to be deleted, right clicked, and slected refresh...
... gone.
It probably would have disappeared on it's own eventually. I'd be curious to see if theis works for others, so please confirm.
Good luck.

How do you delete all occurrences of a recurring event in iCal without deleting them one by one?

These events have no stopping point, and go on into eternity. How do I get them out of iCal without having to delete each one separately? I want to sync with my new iPhone, but don't want these events in my iPhone calendar. They are in my old iPhone when I synced it a couple of years ago. In the iPhone, you have no way to delete or edit these events.
Thanks for any suggestions.

How do I email an event from iCal on the iPad?

Hi, how do I email an event to someone from the iCal app on the iPad? Does it populate in an email?
Thank you,
Chris

Actually, the Invitations button is for incoming invitations. You send an invitation with the "Invitees" button in the Add Event screen. In any event, I never set up these buttons and I never consciously linked iCal to any email package but I have both of them. For some reason, they're missing from the OP's calendar.
The only thing that I can think of is that I do use MobileMe email (soon to be iCloud email). Note to rbrylawski and Clowndz - do you use MobileMe email?

Can I set a recurring event which falls on a specific day

I would like to set events in my Calendar which fall on specific days of the Week or Month e.g. 2nd Monday of each month; or the last Friday on the month. I would be obliged if anyone can advise on how this can be done.

That feature does not exist in the built in calendar app. What you see in the settings for recurring events is what you get. There are other calendar apps available in the App Store. Check some of them out and you might find one that suits your needs better.
Look at this one.

Alerts for recurring events in iCal no longer display on iPhone after iOS5 upgrade

That pretty much says it. I have a daily meeting in my iCal, with two alarms set, one for 15 minutes before and one for 5 minutes before. The alerts no longer display on my phone after the upgrade. (They appear on my Mac no problem.) Has anyone else seen this problem? I have notifications turned on for iCal , set to Alerts. Tried badges, tried turning notifications off then on, to no avail. It doesn't display for recurring events that were in my calendar before the upgrade and for those created after the upgrade. I don't seem to have a problem with regular i.e. non-recurring events. Doesn't seem to matte also if it is the default calendar or a different calendar either. (I tried Reminders and that worked fine, but I don't want to have type all of my recurring events in to iCal and then in to Reminders as well....)
Thanks very much

I'm having the same problem on my iMac (works on a different phone on my MBP). I restored the iphone and no dice. I'm also constantly getting a beach ball... Hope someone out there knows a workaround.

Set up recurring event in calendar

I want to set up an event which happens every second Thursday of each month. If I select monthly it puts it on the same date each month which is not necessarily the second Thursday. I can do this on calendar on my Mac but can't figure out how to do it on my iPhone 5s with 7.1.2.

Thanks for responding Chris. I was afraid that it couldn't be done. It,s really a shame as I have many such recurring events each month so Calendar is not of much use to me. I will check out your suggestion about synching. I have my recurring events set up on my Mac calendar and that works fine. I currently don't synch my iPhone with iTunes just copy pics with image capture and do manual backups.

Missing recurring events with iCal

Hello All,
I am having problems with synching recurring iCal events to my Nokia 6600 and was wondering whether someone could point me in the right direction. All other events (non recurring) seem to come over just fine but the problem seems to be with anything that has been set to repeat yearly. I am using Tiger OS with all the latest updates.
Appreciate any help in advance.
Cheers,
Vincenzo.

I'm having the same trouble. I noticed it will put a recurring event in but it will only appear for about 2 months. This only happens with events that are marked as whole day. If you put in a time such as 12:00 till 12:01, then it will repeat properly.
