I have duplicate events in my iCalendar.

How did I get this and how can I get it back to one post per event?

Sorry, I am no expert but here is how it works with myiPhone. This started to happen to me when I  enabled iCloud.
Go to your Calendar on your iPhone annd select the Calendars button top right. scrolling down you will see all the various calendars selected. You will also see two sections "From My Mac", this is from when you sync your iPhone and Mac, then further down you will see "iCloud". iCloud is also syncing with your Mac. SO if you have all the calendars selected you have asked to see two events for each event.
On you iPhone select either your  "From My Mac" or your "iCloud" but not both. I only display my "iCloud" events on my iPhone. Also on my Mac I only display my "iCloud" events.
If I create a new event on my Mac or my iPhone, it gets synced immediately with iCloud and then the event is on both my Mac and my iPhone.

    I have the same problem: icalc make a duplicate of all events. This happens in former time too, when apple make a new software update. I solved it by delete every double event.
    Why apple can not get rid of these problem!!! The events are very important for me.
    Dupe deleter don´t find the duplicates!
    Apple have to update icalc with a funktion, that find these duplicates and make it possible to delete them!!!
    Knows anyone a possibility to delete the duplicates comfortably?

  • HT3576 Why do I have duplicate events in my notification center, but not in my iPhone calendar?

    My phone always duplicates almost all of my calendar events in the notification center!!!! It's annoying and I'm tired of apples software problems they're annoying as heck!!!! Apple makes pretty chunks of crap in my opinion.

    Each image in your Aperture library will be in exactly one project, but can be used in as many albums and smart albums as you like, without creating duplicates. The albums just reference the images in the projects - they are just index cards grouping your images in different ways.  You are not seeing duplicate versions in the albums, the versions in the albums are linked to the projects. You will see that, when you ctrl-click an image in the album and use the command "Show in project".
    If you delete an image from a project, it will automatically vanish from all albums.
    The relation between albums and projects is explained in Kirby Krieger's user tip:

  • How do I delete duplicate events in my iCal?

    Using SyncMate to sync my calendar and contacts from my Droid X to my iMac (MAC Office doesn't work since I upgraded to Lion).  Seemed successful.  However, I now have duplicate events in my iCal.  How can I delete the duplicate events?

    Hello Linda,
    Duplicate calendar entries can definitely clutter up iCal.  I found an article that has specifically addresses duplicate birthday entries in iCal.  You can find the steps under section titled "7. Clean up birthdays and use the Birthday Calendar" in the following article:

  • Duplicate events in my calendar

    I have duplicate events in my Calendar on my iPhone 6. These do not show up in my MacBook Air, on my iMac, or in iCloud.com. The duplicates only appear on my iPhone calendars.
    I have gone into iPhone settings and turned off Calendars under the iCloud section, and selected the option to Delete events on my device. That fixes the problem temporarily, and the next day all the duplicates are back again.
    Help!

    Not sure if you have tried this.
    On your iPhone, go to Settings > iCloud turn off Calendars, and choose, delete from my iPhone.  Then turn Calendars on.  This should get rid of the duplicates. 

  • Importing iPhoto Back Up from DVD - Duplicate Event Issue

    i'm trying to transfer the iphoto back ups (created in iPhoto) from DVD to my external hard drive. with the disc in, i create a new iphoto library, name it and import the "iPhoto Library" file from the DVD on to my laptop's hard drive. When i do so, it imports over 3,000 photos, whereas it should only be 2,623. when the import is done, i have duplicate events; it looks as though the events are the original and modified versions.
    i don't want to have to reorganize my photos after importing them back in (there are 11 ). am i missing something?

    doesn't keep the name, but dragging them one by one keeps them separate. guess that's not too bad; at least not as tedious as having to weed through all the photos.
    is there some kind of automator i can use?
    why don't the events transfer over? this particular back up is Jan. 2009 thru Jun. 2009. I bought iLife '09 in April. could it be because half the photos were organized with a previous version of iPhoto?
    Thanks for your help btw. i really appreciate it.

  • Duplicate Events on iCal: How to Delete them.

    I was having a problem deleting multiple events, particularly recurring imported ones. I could spend hours deleting them only to have them come back as soon as I scrolled a month forward or backwards. Sometimes events would appear 4 or 5 times on each date. It drove me insane.
    This is the way to fix the duplication problem. You have to go back to the actual date you originated the event and modify it there. For example if you set up someone's birthday on October 3, 1998 in your calendar-regardless of the format (MAC or PC) you need to modify that date specifically.
    I found that there are two versions of the same event on that specific date (10.3.98). They both appear as timed events versus ALL DAY checked events.
    1. Delete the second (or third, fourth, fifth) one first, you might not be able to delete the top one right away, but you will soon.
    2. Once you delete the second (or third, fourth and fifth) the first one becomes a recurring ALL DAY event.
    3. After deleting the lower non-recurring one(s), then modify the top recurring event in some fashion-I found any minor editing or anything really typically fixes it. If you want to delete both events in 98, then this is the place to do it.
    4. If you don't want to delete the entire event altogether, then simply modify the event as you wish and select DONE.
    The key is finding the actual date of input regardless of the software you used to create the event.

  • How to remove duplicate events in my ical icloud calendars?

    OS X 10.9.1
    I have too much duplicate events in my icloud calendars.
    How can I remove them automatically?
    Is there any App available that works?
    Thanks

    Thats a good tip Reggie.
    For anyone else reading this post, keep in mind that if you see "duplicates" with the MobileMe calendar it may mean you are seeing two separate copies of the same calendar.  Before spending time deleting individual events read this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3505

  • Birthday calendar for only some of my contacts are showing up twice in my iPhone. They are not showing up twice tho on my iMac. No, I do not have duplicate names in my address book either. Any idea how to fix that?

    I have uploaded the InDesign file so that you can take a closer look at:
    http://www.hsdesign.comuf.com/downloads/
    The file is called "Template_File.indd"
    So, as discussed the main issues are:
    1) The TOC doesn't generate all the listings (only those with the applied paragraph style "Heading 1 - Appendix")
    2) When I try to create a new pargraph style and apply it to existing or new text, it reads the pargraph style in the Paragraph Style menu, but the style doesn't actually apply.
    Hopefully you can figure something out from this. I really appreciate your help.
    Thanks!

  • Why do i have duplicate calendars?

    I noticed this morning that I have duplicate calendars showing duplicate events on all of my devices: iMac 2011, MacBook Pro Retina 2014, iPad Air and iPhone 4S. All with latest system updates. Only the calendar for my school events (which I use most actively) shows as duplicated, others remain normal. I followed the instructions on Apple's troubleshooting page: I checked that all relevant services were shown green on their system status page. Then I went to iCloud.com and checked whether on not the calendars and/or events were shown twice there as well. I saw two calendars for my school events by the same name, one with purple color that I remember choosing, and another with blue color that I think is the default color for new calendars, and that which I had not chosen. But check this: The events on iCloud calendars were NOT duplicated, but randomly shared by these two calendars. Meaning some of my school events were purple, some were blue. I have always used only one calendar for my school, the purple one.
    Let me recap:
    On all my devices: Two school calendars with duplicated events, purple and blue.
    On iCloud: Two calendars, purple and blue, but no overlapping school events! Both purple and blue events with no apparent logic afaict.
    Now the next step on Apple's page was to contact the telephone support. I submitted a contact request, and after a short while an american lady called me and we started trying to sort things out. I tried my best to explain to her my situation, but perhaps because things were quite complicated, and English not being my native language she might not had understood everything. She asked me if I had tried to delete one of the duplicates. No I had not, because even though on my devices the events were shown twice, on iCloud they WEREN'T, and I didn't want to take the risk of losing anything. I think it was at the moment I was explaining this to her when the line dropped, and she never called back.
    Having given up on tech support I decided to try fix this on my on and went back to iCloud. I thought if I change all blue events to purple and then delete the blue calendar, I might not lose any events. So I double-click on a blue event, change the calendar back to the original purple and hit ok. I get an error saying "Couldn't save changes to [event's name]. Your changes to this event couldn't be saved because of a server error. Please try again." I report and hit ok. The event is still blue. I double-click it and try to change the event's calendar again. This time I get an error "Couldn't save changes to [event's name]. Your changes to this event couldn't be saved because it was just deleted by another device." I hit ok, and NOW I see two of the same event, one in blue and one in purple. Well at least the event is now supposedly where it should be. I repeat this annoying procedure to all blue events. Then I try to delete the wicked blue calendar, praying I won't lose anything important. Of course I get an error: "Couldn't save changes to [calendar's name]. Your changes to this calendar couldn't be saved because it was just updated by another device." So I go and try again, it worked for the events. And this time the calendar is gone!
    But wait. The events of the purple calendar are now duplicated. So I only got rid of the calendar clone, but I still have events shown twice.
    I'm getting way too tired to work on this any futher. Why is iCloud acting like this?

    Highlight a song. Press command+r to reveal the song in Finder. Do that for the duplicate. Are they in the same location? You can also check this by getting info on a file and checking its location in the summary info, then check for the other file.
    If you have a file in a folder that itunes doesn't control and then add the file to itunes it will place a cpy in the itunes folder when you add the file, leaving the original. Not sure how you ended up with two in itunes but I'd need to know the details of your preference settings.
    I don't know about the rest. I have never bought music from ITMS.

  • Sync between MacBookPro and iPhone 3G does not sync properly.  Calendars duplicate events but worse is that only contacts from Address book from letter T onwards sync.  Any contacts on iPhone which are not on Mac are lost during sync.

    Solutions?

    No, I never really found an easy solution.  I believe it is an issue with some corruption in the iTunes database on the specific device.  In my case, both my iPad and iPhone now show duplicate stream songs if viewed through iTunes on my Mac, but they show different songs.  A couple years ago I had a similar issue on my iPhone, and Apple support suggested I back up the phone, completely reset it, and then restore it from the backup.  It did work, so I imagine it would probably work for my current issues with the iPhone and iPad.  But resetting and restoring an iPad or iPhone always makes me a little nervous that something will get lost.  When I did reset/restore the iPhone, I do have to say, the restore process was 100% perfect and I did not lose any data at all even though Apple support said I might.  If you try to go that route, I would suggest backing the device up both to a computer through iTunes, and to the iCloud so that you have a double backup.
    None of this really resolves the issue with how the iTunes databases are becoming corrupted on the apple devices though, so it is very likely to happen again until they fix it.  I have been unable to determine if there were any specific actions or conditions which caused the corruption to happen in the first place.
    Might be worth another call to Apple support, or dropping in the local Apple store if you have one near by.

  • How do I eliminate duplicate events in iCal?

    I accidentally imported Mobile Me calender data after I had already set up iCloud syncing. Now I have dupicates of everything in iCal.  ho do I eliminate them?

  • Duplicate Events - Why?

    When I do nothing more than import photos from a source, such as a camera, in almost every case I get a duplicate event with an identical set of photos in each. One event has the name from the date stamp of the camera (e.g. May 8 would name the event '8') and the other identical folder has is named "original.' I don't move, rename, merge, split, copy or otherwise do anything with the events. I don't add change or move between folders (that's a no-no with iphoto)
    What am I doing wrong / could I do better?
    Picasa?

    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.
    Loads of people have tired or compared picasa for mac. You can read about it on google.
