I can't get ical events to overlap

I can't get ical events to overlap. I prefer overlap as opposed to side-by-side. Help as to how to get overlap?

Make sure you are filing in the "Repeat" and "End date" fields for the event (on the Edit pane).

  • Can't get iCal and Address Book to sync properly

    I recently upgraded to Office 2008. Since then, I can't get iCal and Address book to sync properly with Entourage 2008 (I did set all three sync criteria in Entourage preferences). None of Entourage's events go into iCal (iCal is blank) and the Address Book has 10 times as many names as Entourage. Everything in Entourage 2008 is correct and everything in iCal and Address Book is essentially wrong.
    Is there some way for me to erase everything in Address Book and iCal and start the sync between them and Entourage from scratch? Ultimately, I am trying to get Entourage to sync with my new Blackberry, which it does through iCal and Address Book using Missing Sync. I can't make this happen until information is flowing properly from Entourage to iCal and Address Book.
    Thank you!

    BEFORE YOU DO ANYTHING - BACK UP ALL YOUR DATA IN ENTOURAGE.
    You can delete everything in iCal by deleting the calendar (Entourage or Personal or temp or whatever Calendar is there). You can delete everything in Address book either by highlighting all the contacts and hitting delete or by deleting the Address Book folder in Address Book.
    The key in getting them to sync properly with Entourage is deleting all the preferences in your Library folder under <your user>. Delete anything with Microsoft Entourage in it. I also deleted iCal preferences and Address Book Preferences.
    I also found it necessary to go to the Office folder and delete the sync services folder.
    Also go to Entourage sync services and turn OFF syncing with iCal and Address Book. Exit Entourage.
    Go to your application folder, isync - reset sync history (button at bottom of screen).
    Then bring up Entourage, sync services, and reactivate syncing with iCal and Address Book.
    Everything should work. I have been struggling with this the last week or two. I've had innumerable exchanges with MS who have said anything with syncing is not their problem it's an apple application. Through these discussion boards I pieced together all of the elements above. But be sure to back up anything you want to keep before you do any of this.
    It should work. It did for me (at least last night and all day today). Good luck.

  • I have ical on two computers. Can't get ical (vers. 4) with OS 10.6 to copy to older desk top with OS 10.4 with ical vers 2. Is there a way to do this?

    I have ical on two computers. Can't get ical (vers. 4) with OS 10.6 to copy to older desk top with OS 10.4 with ical vers 2. Is there a way to do this?

    No. iCal isn't just the program you open to see the calendars, there are other things going on beneath the surface, and it's hooked into the System. 10.4 doesn't have the facilities to run iCal intended for 10.6.

  • How can I get the events from a java program?

    I want to make a monitor to watch a java program.How can I get the events from the GUI of this program some as mouse cliking, keyinput. So I can watch these in my monitor.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    To put a monitor to the events occuring in the GHUI u need to register required components with the appropriate EventListeners.
    Liek if u want to get notified when a mouse is clicked, then u need to add The MouseListener to the component which u want to be monitored.
    Say
    myFrame which is the JFrame object which shuld be monitored for the events.
    Then in ur program u have to add following code
    myFrame.addMouseListener( someObectReference );
    Here the someObjectReference should be an instance to a concrete class ..i.e. U write a class like the following
    public class MyMouseListener implements MouseListener {
    // override the followig methods
    public void mouseClicked(MouseEvent me){ sop("MOUSE CLICKED ON THE FRAME");}
    public void mousePressed(MouseEvent me){}
    public void mouseReleased(MouseEvent me){}
    If u dont want to use another class for listening to the events. Then u can make teh current class monitor the events. To do so ur class should implement the appropriate listener and should override the required methods.
    and u should say myFrame.addMouseListenet( this );
    thats it

  • I can't get iCal to stop importing

    I can't get iCal to shut down

    rjorden,
    Force quit iCal. >Force Quit>iCal.
    Then remove the com.apple.iCal.plist file from your Macintosh HD/Users/yourusername/Library/Preferences Folder. Drag the .plist file to your desktop.. Also go to your HD/Users/yourusernam/Library/Calendars Folder and remove any files with "Cache" as a part of the file name. Log out/in, or restart and check iCal/Calendar for functionality.
    To find the correct Library Folder for Preferences/Calendar, select Finder>Go and depress the Option key.

  • 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.

  • Can I get iCal 2 (particularly Calendar groups feature) on OS X 10.3.9 ?

    I'm sure it's a simple question but I can't find anything to say either way...
    Can I get iCal 2 (particularly Calendar groups feature) on my OS X 10.3.9 iBook or do I have to upgrade?
    Since I was first persuaded to get a mac a couple of years ago I've been going on about having groups for my calenders and how simple it must be, since you can group things heirachically in most other apps. So I'm pleased to see it's in iCal 2 however I get the impression that means I have to find the money and the disk space for an upgrade before I can get groups.
    Am I right or is there some wonderful way I can just upgrade iCal?
    Thanks to anyone who can point me in the right direction.

    Welcome to Apple Discussions.
    You cannot upgrade to iCal 2 without installing Mac OS X 10.4 at minimum, as critical Mac OS X 10.4 frameworks which it requires, and Address Book 4, which it is designed to exchange data with, are not present in earlier releases of the operating system.

  • Can I get iCal to respond to Google Calendar invitations?

    Ever since MobileMe forced everyone to switch to the new CalDAV calendars, iCal.app stopped responding to iCalendar (ICS) invitations that I receive via email from Google Calendar users. Here's what's happening:
    I receive a Google Calendar email, open it in Mail.app, and double-click on the ICS email file attachment.
    Mail passes the ICS to iCal.app, which automatically creates a new calendar entry. However, the only choice I have for the new even under the "NOTIFICATIONS" side pane in iCal is an "OK" button. (Prior to the MobileMe Calendar update, I could accept or decline a meeting from the Notifications pane.)
    I can open the meeting in iCal to reveal "Maybe", "Decline", and "Accept" buttons, but—for example—choosing the Accept button doesn't send an iCalendar email response back to the meeting organizer. The fact that I just accepted the event is also not reflected in iCal. Furthermore, iCal doesn't let me edit or add a new alarm to the event.
    Thanks in advance for any suggestions for how to restore the old behavior!
    P.S. Here are links to two other calendaring issues that cropped up since the MobileMe change:
    How do I set the meeting organizer email address for the new CalDAV calendar?
    Can I get Google to recognize my iCal invitations?

    I have the same problem and it is not limited to Google Calendar invitations. Very frustrating! I can't find a solution anywhere other than replying to the invite message manually ... very poor workaround.

  • ICal + Google Calendar: I can't see iCal events on Google Calendar...

    Hi all
    Two partners and myself have started a small business, and we need to be aware of each other's schedules in order to run it successfully, so we have decided to give Google Calendars a bash.
    I've added my Google account to iCal so now when I add an event to Google Calendars it shows up in iCal, but not vice versa: in other words, if all my iCal events don't show up in Google Calendars.
    I've researched the issues, follow all the steps, etc. but I still can't seem to fix this... Am I doing something wrong?
    Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

    My understanding is that iCal will not send data to gCal. The forums suggest that the only way to do this at present is to hook up an iPhone to gCal, which does allow a two-way exchange. gCal then sends to iCal. To me, that means that you cannot make entries on your Mac iCal and have them replicated in gCal. So your Mac calendar is effectively 'read-only', and all entries have to be made on an iPhone or on gCal. I'm not sure, but I suspealso that the only way to get your Mac updated is via gCal; possibly synching phone to Mac via iTunes will result in duplicate entries.
    As I understand gCal, you have to be online to access it, which is no good if you are on the road (or visiting your mother!). I'm not sure how MobileMe comes into this either; I'm still experimenting and either I get no calendars or multiple duplicate entries!

  • How  can i get the event of selected PageItem in ActionScript

    Marcel,
    Please consult the "Tables" chapter in the UIX Developer's Guide. You can search for a method titled "doSelectionEvent" that will indicate how to deal with table selections.

  • I can't get iCal to push entries and sync between my MacBook Pro, my iPad 2 and iPhone.

    I have iCal on my Macbook Pro, V4.04 and I can't get entries to sync with my iPad or iPhone. I have all the calendars checked. I have gone to system preferences and Me and manually synced and I doesn't sync.

    Subscribe to your calendar in iCal (if you have not done so)
    iCal>Preferences>Accounts> click the plus sign and add your MM account, your calendar will appear in iCal, the one you have is probably a local calendar (does it appear under 'On My Mac'?)

  • Outlook Users Can't Accept iCal event invites

    Microsoft Outlook users can't accept my event invites from iCal.
    I already searched through all the possible prefs and settings... at least I think I have.
    Can anyone help?
    THX!
    A.Che

    To clarify this issue - (as I am having a similar issue)...
    From iCal I can easily accept and respond to meeting requests sent to me from a person using Outlook 2003
    The problem is the other way round - My meeting requests from iCal do not seem to be accepted by Outlook. I am generating an email that has a *.ics file extension and it is being sent via mail, but when the recipient (using Outlook 2003) receives the email, it is formatted as plain text and does not have a file attachment.
    When that person forwards the message back to me, it DOES have the attachment still attached (which I can open on my own PC).
    What is the trick to sending an iCal meeting request to an Outlook user so that they can add it to their calendar (and respond to the request)?? Apparently they receive a plain text email with an attachment that is named "Untitled Attachment" which is then empty (~200 bytes)
    Here is a picture of what I am talking about (that they receive in Outlook):
