Ical bombs when moving recurring event

I have ical 6.0 (OS 10.8.5), and ical now starts the beach ball of death when I click and drag a recurring event.
I have to force quit ical.
Has anyone else had this trouble?
Thanks.
Mac

I wanted to add - I found out that this takes place in all calendars in ical.
However, it does not happen if the event is a regular recurring event (like every week).
As soon as I change it to every 2 days (Custom), or the like, then ical will bomb if I move it.

  • [BUG] iCal reverts Google Calender recurring events when changed.

    When in Apple Calendar and drag a recurring event to a new time and the pop-up asks if I want to do this for this event or all future events and choose only this event it changes, then moments later it reverts back to the original time. These events were originally created on Google Calendar.
    It seems that Google Calendar is taking preference over Apple Calandar and not updating or acknowledging Apple Calandar's comand to change.
    Has anyone seen this happen or have a recommended fix?

  • ICal can't sync recurring events to Exchange 2013

    My iCal on my MacBook keeps crashing when trying to sync recurring events...
    Upon adding the Exchange account all events sync but after a while there pops up a message saying:  "iCal can't save the event *Event Name* to the exchange server"
    I tried to Revert to Server and tried Try again but all of that didn't help. After a ignoring all the popups from all the recurring events my calendar won't synchronize at all anymore..
    We have had no problems about a month ago when all was still running on Exchange 2010 so i think that might have to do something with it.
    I'm currently running the latest version of iCal and also the latest version of OS X Mountain Lion.
    Anyone got any ideas how to solve this problem? Thanks in advance!

    I have same issue to the tee! (Mac Pro 2008 running OS 10.8.5).

  • Out of memory error when moving a event to external HD in FCPX...

       When attempting to move a massive (1.75TB) event to a different hard drive using the "move event" feature, I keep getting an "out of memory" diolouge box that prompts me to close any open programs and causes my computer to completely freeze.
        I have a Macbook Pro with 16GB of RAM.
       How do I fix this? OR is there another way to move the event / project file without using the 'move event' option in final cut pro x?

       I have tried the duplicate function yes and the same problem. When I open up activity monitor, I can literally see the RAM drain until it reaches zero and then my computer crashes. It is so bizarre!
    How much hassel would it be to simply copy/paste the enitre Final Cut Pro Events and Projects folder to my external hard drive? Would I have a hard time reconnecting everything?

  • Google Cal won't let me delete recurring events in iCal on a certain Mac?

    My company uses a Google public calendar for everyone in the company to schedule events and see what's going on. My new Macbook Pro can edit that calendar freely as does my Macbook. However if I'm on my iMac, I get this bizarre error when deleting recurring events. What in the world does this mean?
    "HTTP/1.1 409 Can only store an event with a newer DHSTAMP"
    I looked up the error in Google's Cal Help, which was useless unless you are a physicist or programmer working for them. Made not one bit of sense to me.
    What can I do? It's making me crazy!!!!

  • When I update a recurring event on my iPhone, it does not make changes to the calendar in ical or icloud.  Is anyone else having this issue?

    Updating a recurring event on my iPhone does not update the event in either ical or icloud.  If I add a new event on the iPhone it updates right away.  Is this a known problem?  Should I get rid of the recurring event and just make changes day to day manually?  I like having the recurring event set for my work schedule because it rarely changes, but when it does, I'd like to use my iPhone for the updates instead of carrying around my MAC Book all the time.
    Thank you!

    After connecting to iTunes, I noticed that "Back up to iCloud" was selected (in the middle of the screen on the "Summary" tab, under "Backup"), and "Last backed up to iCloud" reflected the time that I attempted to back up from my phone. Even now, the phone still says "Last Backup: Never," so there is clearly a disconnect. Hopefully Apple will fix this soon.

  • ICal crashes when editing one instance of recurring event

    Maybe it is just my imagination, but this started just as MobileMe was released.
    If I edit or delete one instance of a recurring event, iCal crashes about 90% of the time. I'm not sure why it does work in a very few cases. Usually it will show as "Not responding" in my activity monitor and start using all memory. When I force quit, the log files include the following:
    Command: iCal
    Path: /Applications/iCal.app/Contents/MacOS/iCal
    Version: 3.0.4 (1263)
    Build Version: 3
    Project Name: iCal
    Source Version: 12630000
    Parent: launchd [458]
    Any tips? My iCal is nearly unusable as most of my events are recurring, and editing events is a necessary tool. Let me know if I should post more of the error log.

    Hi,

  • ICal hanging when trying to edit/delete recurring event

    I have a calendar entry in iCal that recurs every week through the end of the year. I know this particular entry is causing issues in iCal so I have tried deleting it and/or editing it, and every time I do, it hangs iCal. Any thoughts/ideas? I do sync to a Palm using MissingSync but this calendar entry does not show up on my Palm so I can't delete it there. Any ideas? I would just like to delete the entry.

    Wow, just found the answer - YzGy posted this link <http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=7449164&#7449164> and I did as instructed and I'm back up and running. For some reason, this recurring event was on my calendar 12,300 times.

  • Why is ical adding multiple alerts to my recurring events?

    I have searched for this issue in the support topics but can only find very old threads with links to apps that do not work.  My recurring events in ical are all of a sudden getting many many alerts added to them.  Every once in while I try deleting the event and creating a new one, or deleting the extra alerts for all future events and YET THEY KEEP COMING BACK.  It's super annoying when I am getting 10 reminders for one event and have to clear each one of them.  PLEASE HELP!

    Thanks Malcolm.I'm afraid this issue started for me after updating to iOS6!

  • How stop iCal from switching all my events to the date beforeI assigned them? It saves but then when I open the program again all my events have been messed up.

    iCal on my macbookpro moves events to the day before I originally saved them..especially birthdays. I will create an event for the 2nd of September, for example, and then when I restart my computer and open iCal the same event is saved for the 1st even though I created it for the 2nd. I continue to correct the moved events but iCal continues to move them. I do not use an iphone or ipad with my macbookpro. My computer is operating on mountain lion. Please help!

    This happens if the file is no longer where iTunes expects to find it. Possible causes are that you or some third party tool has moved, renamed or deleted the file, or that the drive it lives on has had a change of drive letter. It is also possible that iTunes has changed from expecting the files to be in the pre-iTunes 9 layout to post-iTunes 9 layout,or vice-versa, and so is looking in slightly the wrong place.
    Select a track with an exclamation mark, use Ctrl-I to get info, then cancel when asked to try to locate the track. Look on the summary tab for the location that iTunes thinks the file should be. Now take a look around your hard drive(s). Hopefully you can locate the track in question. If a section of your library has simply been moved, or a drive letter has changed, it should be possible to reverse the actions.
    Alternatively, as long as you can find a location holding the missing files, then you should be able to use my FindTracks script to reconnect them to iTunes.

  • ICal recurring events function broken

    Hi folks,
    I use my Mac for business, so having iCal broken is a serious problem. I hope someone can help.
    The problem has crept up on me, so I can't pinpoint when I started to have issues. It seems to be progressive in some way.
    I've tried to delete the program and also the support files I find in Library, and reinstall, but the new install managed to find the old info, somehow.
    I'm on OS 10.6.8. I've got reasons to stick with it and don't want to upgrade right now. I'm running iCal 4.0.4. I've done a Software Update. I also sync an iPod running iOS 5.1.1 (also up to date for the device).
    My problem is that I have been having items drop out of iCal, randomly so I have a hard time seeing any pattern to the problem. The items have seemed mostly to do with recurring events, so let's assume that's been consistent. In trying to understand the problem, I've deleted iCal and its Library files. I'm currently having some kind of problem where the System Disk is being rejected (won't mount), so I can't reload iCal that way, though I believe I did do that some time back trying to fix the problem. So I have re-installed iCal via thumb drive off a second IMac running OS10.6.8. It "works" seemingly fine, but now the recurring events function is completely broken. I've tried to set up several recurring events to test it, recurring daily; neither one has made it past the first instance (nothing can be made to "recur").
    Any insights at all? Thanks very much,
    Eric

    I think the problem lies in icalx.com. It doesn't seem the server there gets a lot of real administrative attention. I'm not complaining at all! He's nice enough to offer this free to almost 100,000 calendars. But--it does make the recurring events problem a bit annoying.
    I switched over to sharing my calendars via chandlerproject.org. You can share your calendars via webdav just like icalx and you can play around with some of the CalDAV features for free. (I'm not sure how long it will be free--it seems like an awfully nice service for no money!)

  • ICal + Exchange 2007 - recurring events issues

    Hi all
    Not sure if this has been brought up before, couldn't find anything on the boards.
    Anyway, our client has 20 macbook pros all running OS 10.6.2. They also have an Exchange 2007 server (previously they had a 2003 exchange server and were using entourage).
    The problem they appear to be having is when creating a recurring event they invite selected users but the invites either don't get through or upon accepting the invite it doesn't show up in the other user's calendar. I've heard there are some issues with iCal and recurring events - is this true or does anyone know a way to fix this?
    Thanks in advance.

  • Why don't' some recurring events in iCal synch via iCloud with my iPad2

    This may be a question better asked on the iCloud community, but I already have something similar there.
    Not all of my recurring events sych via the iCloud with my Mac and IOS devices. For example, my anniversary appears on my Mac and my iPhone, but not on my iPad2.
    I notice that when I click on "Calendars" when the iCal app is open in my iPhone I get 2 lists of calendars - one that is labled "On my iphone" and the other that is labled "iCloud". The same two lists appear in the iCal app on my Mac. But on my iPad2 the only list that appears is "iCloud".
    Can anyone help with this issue?

    Here's somthing Apple suggested to me for some problems I was having that was related to the basic features of the iPhone. Connect the iPhone to your Mac, launch iTunes and.....
    1 - backup your iPhone to your computer
    2 - restore the iPhone to factory settings.
    3 - restore the backup.

  • ICal + Exchange 2007 Recurring events issue

    When creating a recurring event in OUTLOOK (on Windows) the following happens in my iCal.
    1. The first instance is placed at the right time and day.
    2. The first recurrence happens at the right time on the FOLLOWING day.
    3. Remaining recurrences happen as per the repeat cycle (weekly etc) based upon the first recurrence.
    I.E. adding a repeating event on TUES@0900 result in the following events in iCal (TUES@900, WED@900, repeating event every folloiwng WED@0900).
    In every other application i use to view the calendar it works fine (Outlook, Entourage, Web-based) just in iCal the event is out.
    Anyone seen this. I have not been able to find reference to this one.
