Hw do I get rid of birthdays on iPad Calendar?

I don't know if this has anthing to do with my Google Gmai, Google+,Facebook, or syncing issues but my iPad calendar is suddenly showing the birthdays of everyone in my contacts 6 or more times on the date of their birthday. HELP!
I don't want any birthdays on this calendar. They'r too distracting and leave no space for new events.
How do I get rid of them?

Open the calendar app the tap the calendar icon on top right hand corner. You will see the options there to hide the birthdays all at once

  • Getting rid of birthday notifications on calendar...

    There have been a bunch of discussions on this but nothing very recent and none of the solutions I've seen are working.  I get these bloody birthday announcements almost every day from my calendar program on my Mac.  First of all, I'd love to know how in the world they even got on my calendar in the first place.  The only thing I can think of is that google is responsible - I synch with my Google Calendar.
    Anyway, I have unticked birthday alerts AND what appears to be a calendar called "birthdays" and these darn things just keep on coming....
    Anyone have a clue?

    The software that allows this printer to function on Windows XP does not have an option to disable this feature. These are maintenance messages for the printer and the software has to show them.
    I do not know of a workaround to this either. I hope this helps.

  • TS1906 How do you get rid of birthday duplicates?

    After setting up iCal and adding birthdays and other events in my contacts.  I now have duplicates of everyones birthdays showing. 
    I have tried several things but can not delete the duplicates.

    You actually have hidden duplicates in your Address Book that you are unaware of; I had the EXACT same problem. I downloaded a program called Bento (http://www.filemaker.com/products/bento/mac.html) and it allowed me to edit my Contact cards. iCal duplicated every single contact I had (and thus doubled the birthdays in my calendar). This allowed me to delete one of the two files (although only one appeared in the Contact app) and my birthdays went back to normal!

  • Unsynking Facebook birthdays from ipad calendar?

    All my Facebook contacts´ birthdays show up in my ipad calendar. ( I have not synked the ipad to Facebook).
    How can I get rid of all this birthday info which is cluttering up my calendar?

    @phil1992
    Open settings and then choose 'Facebook'.
    Then under "Allow These Apps to Use Your Account" turn Calendar off. Birthdays will be gone but so will your events.
    Alternative:
    Just disable both Calender and Contacts
    1: Settings
    2:Notifications
    3:scroll down to Facebook
    4:Turn Badge App Icon switch to 'Off'

  • Getting rid of Birthdays Calendar

    I want to get the Birthdays Calendar off of my iPhone, because it doesn't seem to be behaving properly. For one, it isn't showing up in the color that I chose for it in iCal. It shows up as a three different color, blue in iCal, green in MobileMe cloud and red on my iPhone. If I could control it, I might keep it.
    I deactivated it in iCal, which also removed it on the cloud, but it is still present on my iPhone. Sure, I can uncheck it so that it doesn't show its contents, but why is it still there and how can I get it off the phone completely? This is one area of syncing that I have found difficult.

    Thanks again,
    Yeah, I've been to Apple's feedback page. I've often found it a bit discouraging seeing that they don't respond, and since most suggestions don't seem to get integrated too quickly, if at all. Obviously it doesn't hurt to send feedback via that means anyway, so I most likely will.
    My biggest complaint with Apple's basic apps, such as Contacts and Calendar is that they don't even integrate all that well with their desktop versions - Address Book and iCal. I'm not asking for major improvements here, but can you (Apple) at least make your own apps work the same across your own different platforms (Mac, iPhone and MobileMe)? I don't know if anyone noticed, but Apple just allowed the function of actually changing the calendar of an event after the event was created. Before this latest version of the iPhone OS, you either had to stick with the calendar, or create the event from scratch in order to place it in the right calendar (if you didn't choose right from the beginning). It is stuff like this that seems hard to believe.

  • Get rid of Demo version ipad

    Hi
    I bought an ipad 2 (16GB) which was originally a demo model.
    But being a demo model, iOS has some limitation like there isis no passcode option in the settings not possible to create folders, delete/hide apps. Reverting to factory setting takes me back to same demo build!
    Is there any way to get the same features as with standard iOS?
    Thanx
    Ben

    You can't install a standard iOS on a demo model.
    You should not have bought or been sold a demo model.

  • Want to get rid of photo on iPad but have no garbage to dump it, came from my laptop, now I want to know how to desync my photo, which computer to I use, which itune do I use?

    Want to download the itune so I may desync my photos.
    Last year I synced the photos from my laptop to my iPad, now I want them GONE. Which itune do I use? There are too many for me to know the right one.
    I read that I go to the right of my screen then I click on library, then click on photo. Guess what, I have nothing of that sort on my screen.
    Please help.

  • Why do I get duplicate events on my ipad calendar

    I am using the icloud sync function to coordinate my calendar in outlook and on my ipad and iphone.  It works fine in outlook but I get repeated events every time i sync my ipad or phone.  I have only got the cloud calendar selected on all three devices.  It also does not carry events across to outlook that I create on the ipad. Thanks.

    There are lots of features that Apple doesn't include in iOS devices but that they leave available as things third party developers can add on. None of the included apps are really much more than basic. The fact that this feature is not available without installing additional software doesn't seem to have stopped many business people from using the phone. So, it's apparently not completely unnaccetable.
    You can submit Feedback to Apple here:
    http://www.apple.com/feedback
    Best of luck.

  • Duplicate birthdays in iPad calendar from contacts

    I have noticed that all the birthdays that are syncing from my contacts into my calendar are rapidly duplicating - over the last few days each entry has increased so currently each birthday is listed 192 times!
    I've tried switching the birthdays calendar off, quitting the calendar and restarting my iPad but they are still there.
    Anyone have any ideas of how to fix this?
    It's like they're breeding out of control :)
    Thanks.

    Did you receive a response on this?  I am having the same problem on my iPad 3.  I turned off the Birthdays and when I turn it back on, there are HUNDREDS of the same entry.

  • How do I get rid of duplicate calendar entries in my notifications?

    I managed to get rid of all my duplicate calendar entries on my calendar.  I unchecked all but the two calendars I use.
    The problem is that when I go to my notifications screen, under "Calendar", it still shows all my entries like three times.  How do I get rid of this?  It takes up all the realestate on my notifications.

    Sounds like your syncing Calendars over the air with iCloud, as well as with a supported Calendar application on your computer. Doing both will duplicate your entries, so do one or the other, not both.

  • How to get rid of bookmark bar in landscape mode?

    To illustrate.

  • When opening the Calendar app, I am greeted with a box that says "This calendar can not be refreshed."  After clicking on "OK" another box pops up saying "The server responded with an error."  How can I get rid of these?

    When opening the Calendar app, I am greeted with a box that says "This calendar can not be refreshed," and after clicking ok there is another box saying "The server responded with an error."  How do I get rid of this.  The calendar functions all right, but just have to close both of those boxes after doing any action in the calendar app.

    Please take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried, until the problem is resolved. Back up all databefore making any changes.
    Step 1
    From the Calendar menu bar, select
    Calendar ▹ Preferences ▹ Accounts
    Choose the affected account from the list on the left and uncheck the box marked
    Enable this account
    Then check the box again. Test.
    Step 2
    Make a note of the account settings, then delete the account and add it back with the same settings.
    Step 3
    If you can't add the account, the settings may be invalid. Verify them. How you do that depends on what kind of account it is. If it's a Google calendar and you've activated 2-step verification, you need to generate an application-specific password in your Google account and enter it in place of your old password.
    Step 4
    Quit Calendar. Triple-click the line below on this page to select it:  
    ~/Library/Calendars/Calendar Cache  
    Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
    Services ▹ Reveal
    from the contextual menu.* A Finder window should open with a file named "Calendar Cache" selected.
    Move the selected file to the Trash. There may be one or two other files in the same folder with names that begin in "Calendar Cache". If so, delete those files too.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C). In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
