ICal Calendar NOT displaying events? I found a simple fix

Hi there,
Many of us are having our iCal events disappear. I have seen this problem a number of times after the mobile me iCal update.
After trying many of the suggestions found in this forum, here is what I accidentally discovered that worked for me....
1) Select the calendar (that is not displaying events) from the list of calendars in the left column of iCal.
2) Double-click (on any day in month view) in the calendar to create a new event.
3) Delete the new event.
After I did this, iCal started churning for a few seconds, then all of the events from that calendar appeared.
Good luck,
Matt

In fact the days at the top are not matching the days of the meetings. (I know when the meeting are - and they show up fine on my iPod)

Calendar will not display events in month view?

A few days ago my calendar stopped displaying events in the Month view (where I originally entered them). I can see them in the List view, although I cannot edit them. They are also not visible in the Day view.
Moreover at the top of the screen where there would normally be a "+" button to add events and a "calendar" button to view different calendars there is nothing. Only a heading that says "All Calendars" - however I can't find anywhere in settings to view different calendars if I want. Any ideas?

Well....
If you find all the .ics files in ~/Library/Calendars/Events
And then copy them out of ~/Library
You can import them back into Calendar .... One .... At ..... A ..... Time ......
Why, Oh Why, did I ever think I wanted to try iCloud?

ICal will not display correct "event" times

Have iMac (21.5-inch, Late 2012), OS X Yosemite (10.10 ) and iCal app suddenly will not display the correct Event times that I have designated in the little pop up box? Any ideas about what I can do to reset iCal or fix this annoying error in the app?
Thanks!

Hi,
Have you tried turning it off in iCal's Preferences and then back on again?
Best wishes

ICal does not display iCloud calendar after moving from MobileMe to iCloud

I moved MobileMe to iCloud. Everything but iCal made the move fine. My iCal app does not show iCloud nor am I able to create that as a new account. My MobileMe calendar is displayed but gets an error message that it cannot log on to my calendar because the password is wrong at MobileMe. Settings shows I am logged in to MobileMe and that it has moved to iCloud.

I'm running 10.7.2 and still my iCal does not show in iCloud. System preferences>iCloud just keeps giving me the same advertising window for iCloud with a button to "Move to iCloud." This takes me to an endlessly same windo of find my phone. Argh. Help!

ICal calendars not syncing with iPhone 4 running iOS 4.0.2

I have an iPhone 4 running iOS 4.0.2
I'm using iCal on my MBP running Mac OS 10.6.4
I have a MobileMe account.
Never had an issue with calendars syncing with the iPhone previously.
I am using MobileMe Calendar Beta. This now displays my calendars in iCal under my MobileMe account name (eg. [email protected]) rather than the 'On My Mac' section that it use to.
I have five separate calendars in iCal on the Mac all named appropriately (eg. Work, Personal etc.) and all that appears on the iPhone is one calendar named 'Calendar' with no events in it??
I've used MobileMe (.Mac) and iPhone syncing for years and have them set up as I always have.
Does anyone have the same issues? Does anyone have any constructive advise?
Thanks
Jeff

ICal server not sending events older than 10 days

Have just discovered an issue with our iCal Server that I hope someone can help me resolve. It seems that sometime in the last few days, or past week. the iCal Server (running on a Snow Leopard Server 10.6.8 setup) has stopped sending out any events older than 10 or so days for 6 of the 7 calendar calDAV accounts that we all subscribe too. All future events on each calendar appear to be visible. The situation is consistent across of all of our Desktop's, MacBook Pro's and iPhone's so it is not localized to any single machine. It is also consistent when I subscribed through a third party calnedar application (BusyCal).
I have gone into the ~/Library/CalendarServer/Documents and although I could not access the folders directly, I did copy the folder and its contents to another hard drive where I was able to view what was inside. It appears that all of the individual event .ics files for each account are in their respective subfolders, but they are not being served out to the subscribers.
Any ideas on how to get these older events to become visible again would be very much appreciated. I am not very well versed on this type of thing and am learning on the fly.

I'm having this same issue and I'm really ticked off.
When I upgraded today, I received a message saying that because I had so many events in the past that it would take longer to upgrade everything. It said that all my current and future events had been updated, but the past events would be available in 1 hour. Well, it's been a lot of 1 hours since then and nothing. All my events have been deleted from my MacPro, MacBook Pros, and iPhone. I'm holding out hope for them to reappear in the morning.
I know this isn't part of this thread, but I thought I'd throw it out anyway. Why are my subscribed calendars NOT visible online. Apple made an announcement in the past celebrating the ability to view subscribed calendars online when they once could not. Now with a new ADVANCEMENT, we've regressed and I cannot view subscribed calendars online. I hate to break it to Apple, but I use these subscribed calendars in my scheduling and planning, too. I still need to see them online just as I do on my computer and phone. So with all the updating and wonderful features, the lack of this one makes MobileMe online calendars useless to me and others.
One step forward, two steps back.

Calendars not displaying correctly.

My shared calendar is not displaying at least one user's information, it may be two users but that user has not created an event to show up on my calendar.
This user is clearly in the group and I have added the groups calendar to display. I have not had a chance to look at the user's calendar settings to investigate but I'm pretty sure they are default like all of the other users.
Does anyone have any idea of what's going on?

You need to verify that the calendar permissions are correct for you to see appointments and that the appointments aren't marked private.

ICal does not display all items in month view

Hi,
in month view, iCal displays ... to show that some items are not displayed. However, this happens many times when there is ample space to display the item, and even happens when there is only one item!
Does anybody know how to force iCal to show as many as possible items?
Thanks...

Hey, thank you.
But how do I change the font and its size?
I tried....
Thanks,
Janos

How do you select the ical calendar which an event is added to?

Since switching from iPhone 3GS to iPhone 4, I cannot choose which ical calendar to add an event to. It used to be an option when you created a new event, but now it creates all events in a new calendar, called 'calendar', which I neither want, nor seem to be able to delete. There appears to be no way to select the calendar or edit which calendar the event appears in. This is important to me as my 'work' calendar is shared with multiple colleagues.
Can anybody help?
Al.

Perfect, thank you!

Publishing iCal Calendars not updating...

So I've been publishing my ical calendars to my own server using an ftp based php script(as opposed to the usual web dav/.mac publish). I publish them to a phpicalendar page...something I can access from any webbrowser, and something I can embed within other pages. See here if you're interested: http://phpicalendar.net/
But my question is with regards to how iCal usually publishes calendars... If I "refresh" my calendars, it should not only refresh my subscribed calendars, but also republish my calendars...shouldn't it?

So I've moved on from this focus, as Google Calendar and iCal have opened up their software further.

Contacts and calendars not displaying

I've copied over my contacts and calendar items [from Outlook 2003] to my iPod and they are not displaying at all [blank] when I browse to them in my device - are there any additional steps I need?
Thx for the help!

Hello fellow ipodders,
I have an ipod photo 30Gb for about 3 months now.
Running first with Itunes 5.01 and now Itunes 6.0.
When I tried to sync between Ipod and Outlook 2003 SP1 at
the end there is nothing displayed in the IPOD. No contacts or calendar items. The sync seems to go fine, even granting for access to Outlook 2003 is asked and I permit that for 10 mins. But at the end nothing in my ipod.
Is this problem somehow resolved now. It has been posted for that long time now.
BTW: I feel that Apple is only a sales company. Selling pretty expensive portable mediaplayers. But the word support isn't in their dictionary....
Brgds,
Bas.

App that syncs ical calendar (not just the task)

Omnifocus and Things does not. That is such as drawback. I need to see everything that I am doing in the day. Please help!!!!!!

I second this request!

ICal Order of Displaying Events

Does anyone know how iCal determines what order it displays (and prints) events?
I have two recurring events (amongst others on the same days) that start at the same time, and end at different times. They repeat every week day.
However, iCal insists on displaying these events in a random way.
On Monday, Tuesday and Thursday for example, Event 1 will be to the left, and Event 2 to the right.
And Wednesday and Friday Event 2 to the left and Event 1 to the right.
Anyone know why it doesn't just display the events consistently? Or how I can force it to?
It may seem minor, but when you've got a structured timetable it looks rubbish with the events differing from day to day.
It's driving me mad!
Thanks,
roryyy

Any solutions on this. I'm trying to create a schedule and even when I have the events in the correct order in the display, any changes to any day will randomly effect other days, and it prints in a completely different order then it is displayed. Help us Apple!
