ICal day view header date error

I'm having an issue with the date header in the iCal day view. No matter what day I select the calendar displays Saturday, November 27th, 2010 in the header (at the right top corner of the screen). The date near the top of the agenda on the left side of the screen is displaying correctly and changes as I change to different dates. Also the icon in the dock is displaying correctly.
I've tried various basic things such as quitting and restarting iCal. Also I've reviewed the preferences for iCal as well as the system preferences and haven't seen anything that would make a difference.
Any assistance or thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Eyejinx,
Quit Calendar, and go to System Preferences....>Language & Text>...and set/re-set your "Region:" Restart Calendar.
If that is not successful, quit Calendar again, and paste this text ~/Library into the Finder Menu>Go>Go to Folder...window and select "Go." This will open the Users Library Folder.
Next open the Preferences Folder in that Library Folder and move the com.apple.iCal.plist file to the Desktop.
Log out/in or restart and open Calendar.

Reminders in iCal Day View

Reminders, whether created in iCal or the iOS Reminders app disappear in iCal's Day View when the reminder is set in iOS to repeat. They reapear in iCal when the date is advance on day or the view is changed to Week View. They also appear correclty in iCloud's day view.
Does anybody get different results?
Thanks,
Bud

I too miss the alarm icon feature, as it is now cumbersome to verify whether an event has an alarm or not.

ICal day view not in current month

Looking at my calendar in day view right now, the right hand column is clearly headed Thursday, 7 November, 2013, the left hand column is headed Thursday 7 January, 2013. Have checked all of the obvious settings and they seem fine.
Any ideas?

KayakGuideDotCom,
One of the first things to try is "refresh" the com.apple.iCal.plist file. You will find the com.apple.iCal.plist file in your Macintosh HD/Users/yourusername/Library/Preferences Folder. Quit iCAl, drag the .plist file to your Desktop, log out/in or restart and check iCal for normal behavior.

How can I fix left pane text overlap in iCal Day view?

In "Day" view, the items in the left hand (list) pane in iCal are overlapping, obscuring the bottom 1/3 of each line of text. It is as if the table cells are too close together vertically. How do I fix this?

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Safe+Mode
Try to disable hardware acceleration.
*Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"
If disabling hardware acceleration works then check if there is an update available for your graphics display driver.

ICal day view upcoming events list--can it be turned off?

Just upgraded to 10.7 and the changes to iCal (v. 5.0.3) are horrifying. I plan most of my daily work on iCal and really need the Day view of the calendar to fill most of the window and show more details on my calendar items as it did before in 10.6. As it is now, the left half of the screen is now taken over by a list of upcoming events which gives the daily view too little space, so all my calendar items and notes are truncated. Makes it very difficult to work with. Is there a way to turn that upcoming view off? I don't understand why it's there. If I've selected "day" as my view option, it stands to reason that I don't need upcoming events for this week. The rationale behind that being there taking up all that unnecessary space is beyond me.
Barring that, anyone have any suggestions for an iCal replacement? I have a long list of other complaints but this one is a big one. If I can't fix this, I need to move on to something else.

Same question here... over a year later! Mine's about iCal 6, but it's the very same issue.
Cannot stand the scrolling list of events. When I select a day view, I want to concentrate on that day's events-- and not see a long list of other events for other days!
Rick, did you ever find a solutiion? Maybe there's a hidden Terminal command to turn it off. I kept looking for dot within the pane divider to collapse it, but it's not there. Nor is there an option under Preferences!
Long live Snow Leopard and the old iCal!

Where is the small ALARM 'icon' in iCal day view Events??

I am almost certain that with iCal 2 (Tiger) when I set an alarm (and I set a lot of alarms)- in the Day view when I looked at the event I could see a small alarm 'icon' or picture or visual indicator (whatever one would call it) that that event indeed had an alarm set.
But for iCal 3.0.6 with Leopard 10.5.6 (which I installed last week) - the events show no indication of whether there is an alarm set or not.
How to get this nice little feature back?
ALSO: Is there a way to do a search to find just events which have an alarm set (i.e. find all events which have alarms)?
Thanks,

How do I view Migrate Data errors - Access 2003 - Oracle 10g

I'm trying to use the SQL Developer to migrate data from an Access 2003 database to an Oracle 10g database. I followed the instructions found here:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/migration/workbench/files/omwb_getstarted.html
I was able to complete every step except the actual data move. I exported the xml for the Access database, I captured the export and then ran the generation scripts on my target Oracle database (I'm using the same schema for the migration repository and the actual data). It created the tables with only one or two errors which I resolved.
Now, when I select Migration->Migrate Data, I get the dialog that appears to start 4 or 5 threads and attempts to migrate each table. They all error and do not transfer any rows. I can see that there's one error per table, but I can't see the error text. I just know that an error occurred. Is there a log somewhere or is the error displayed somewhere else? How do I know what's gone wrong?
Thanks.

I too receive unexplained error counts using the Migrate Data menu selection and unexplained failures using the Generate Data Move Scripts menu selection. Permissions granted by role or direct grants should not be a problem, but a Migrate Data error appears in the Migration Log panel at the bottom of the SQL Developer window, "Failed to disable constraints: ORA-00942 ... ". No further details available on what constraints or why the error. No other errors were detected while following the instructions found in the Oracle SQL Developer Migration Workbench Getting Started guide. SQL Developer never migrates the data from the existing Access 2000 mdb file to the newly created schema objects in Oracle 10g using either method. The following roles and privileges have been granted to both the repository owner and the target schema owner:
GRANT RESOURCE TO MIGRATE_USER WITH ADMIN OPTION;
GRANT CONNECT TO MIGRATE_USER WITH ADMIN OPTION;
ALTER USER MIGRATE_USER DEFAULT ROLE ALL;
-- 25 System Privileges for MIGRATE_USER
GRANT CREATE ROLE TO MIGRATE_USER;
GRANT ALTER TABLESPACE TO MIGRATE_USER;
GRANT ALTER ANY SEQUENCE TO MIGRATE_USER;
GRANT INSERT ANY TABLE TO MIGRATE_USER;
GRANT SELECT ANY TABLE TO MIGRATE_USER;
GRANT CREATE ANY TABLE TO MIGRATE_USER;
GRANT UNLIMITED TABLESPACE TO MIGRATE_USER WITH ADMIN OPTION;
GRANT DROP TABLESPACE TO MIGRATE_USER;
GRANT CREATE ANY TRIGGER TO MIGRATE_USER;
GRANT ALTER ANY ROLE TO MIGRATE_USER;
GRANT CREATE VIEW TO MIGRATE_USER WITH ADMIN OPTION;
GRANT DROP USER TO MIGRATE_USER;
GRANT CREATE TABLESPACE TO MIGRATE_USER;
GRANT GRANT ANY ROLE TO MIGRATE_USER;
GRANT CREATE ANY SEQUENCE TO MIGRATE_USER;
GRANT ALTER ANY TABLE TO MIGRATE_USER;
GRANT DROP ANY TRIGGER TO MIGRATE_USER;
GRANT DROP ANY ROLE TO MIGRATE_USER;
GRANT DROP ANY SEQUENCE TO MIGRATE_USER;
GRANT UPDATE ANY TABLE TO MIGRATE_USER;
GRANT ALTER ANY TRIGGER TO MIGRATE_USER;
GRANT COMMENT ANY TABLE TO MIGRATE_USER;
GRANT DROP ANY TABLE TO MIGRATE_USER;
GRANT CREATE PUBLIC SYNONYM TO MIGRATE_USER WITH ADMIN OPTION;
GRANT CREATE USER TO MIGRATE_USER WITH ADMIN OPTION;
-- 1 Tablespace Quota for MIGRATE_USER
ALTER USER MIGRATE_USER QUOTA UNLIMITED ON USERS;
Operating system for both Access 2000 and Oracle 10g is Windows XP PRO SP2.
Oracle SQL Developer is version 1.1.2.25 build MAIN-25.79 on Windows XP PRO SP2. All three are on the same PC.
Since only the last step failed, I created a User DSN with the ODBC administrator. Then, linked the newly created Oracle table to Access via ODBC using the DSN created. Next, I created an append query with the source being the Access table and the target being the Oracle table. I moved the data by pressing the red exclamation mark.

Ical - trouble viewing custom dates

Ical - how can I view selected custom days eg last Tuesday and weds and this Monday and Tuesday (without reverting to month view)?

Alicia,
http://ical.mac.com/cordelephotography/cal name
I assume "cal name" refers to your calendar name
I'm not having any problem seeing mine. It is hard to help you if you don't remember their names. If you are on your Mac you can find the URL by control-clicking on a published calendar.

ICalendar shuts down when going from year or month view to day view for dates starting May 2014. I'm running all the latest software versions

I realized the above mentioned problem already months ago, but assumed Apple is onto it and will fix it once the time comes closes. I have researched on the net to see if I can find posts with similar problems, but there don't seem to be any.

Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps BEFORE doing the reset.

ICal Daily view bug

Hi, I'm having a strange bug in iCal, I hope you can help me.
In the day view, the date and texts on the left side are too big and cropped.
Increasing and decreasing size only affects the right side panel.
I deleted the app via terminal, reinstalled it with the Lion DVD I burnt, and made a combo update. The bug is still here.
Deleted the preferences. No success.
Here is what I see : http://dl.dropbox.com/u/4894405/WEBPOSTS/iCal_bug.png
Thanks for your help.
Cedric

Greetings,
Its likely you have a settings issue in your user account rather than this being a bug within the iCal application itself.
To be sure you can create a new user account on your computer and test: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.7/en/mtusr001.html
Go to Apple Menu > System Preferences > Language & Text > Formats > Region. Region should be set to the country of your choice. Do not have it set to "Custom" as this can have unexpected results in the iCal window.
If that does not resolve the issue:
1. First make an iCal backup: Click on each calendar on the left hand side of iCal one at a time highlighting it's name and then going to File Export > Export and saving the resulting calendar file to a logical location for safekeeping.
2. Go to iCal > Quit iCal
3. Remove the following to the trash and restart your computer:
Home > Library > Caches > com.apple.ical
Home > Library > Calendars > Calendar Cache, Cache, Cache 1, 2, 3, etc. (Do not remove Sync Cache or Theme Cache if present)
--- NOTE: To get to "Home > Library" in Lion:
4. Launch iCal and test.
If the issue persists:
1. Go to iCal > Quit iCal
2. Remove the following to the trash and restart your computer:
Home > Library > Caches > com.apple.ical
Home > Library > Calendars > Calendar Cache, Cache, Cache 1, 2, 3, etc. (Do not remove Sync Cache or Theme Cache if present)
Home > Library > Preferences > com.apple.ical (There may be more than one of these. Remove them all.)
--- NOTE: Removing these files may remove any shared (CalDAV) calendars you may have access to. You will have to re-add those calendars to iCal > Preferences > Accounts.
3. Launch iCal and test.
Hope that helps!

No scrolling of Events in Day View

In the latest version of Snow Leopard (10.6 as of this writing), iCal day view does not allow scrolling of events. If the amount of events in a day goes beyond the bottom of the screen, there is no way to scroll to see the rest of them. The user must cut some of the top ones and paste them into a different day in order to see the bottom ones. Scrolling of events in day view is needed to solve this problem.
Anyone have any tricks for avoiding cut-and-paste to see iCal events when they go below the screen?

can you change the height to 100% and see whether you have the same issue

Ical does not work in Day View

When I was working in ICal I have input an event in a date but I can only see it or change it when in Week View.
When I put in Day View it suddenly freezes and nothing appears. What can it be? it's curious that it freezes in October 15th. Anybody saw it before?

Hello Troyantonik,
Since the issues with your camera seem to persist, we would recommend having the camera evaluated at the Canon Service Center. You can set up service through our web site, located here.

ICal events that are visible in Week/Month views but not day view!

I manage our iCal services for 10 users via iCal server. Everyone has their own calendar and then delegates read/write access as appropriate. In what seems to be a very random and not very reproducible problem we have a few events that are visible from week view and month view, but the event doesn't show up in day view. This is a huge problem when scheduling if we don't see other events in day view and it's a real pain to have to switch views to double check.
Anyone else have this problem?
Anyone know the specifics that cause it, so I can prevent it?
Any fix for said issue?
Thanks!

If they are in photos view then they are in an event unless you have a corrupted library
How are you"merging" the photos?
most common issue is either bad sort (view menu ==> sort events) or bad camera dates
select one and show event to see the event

ICal month view - appointments over two days

Very annoying but when entering a new event in the month view it defaults to an all day event - ok I can cope with that.
But when double clicking the new event to change it to a timed event (still in month view) and tabbing through the dates and time, the duration seems to default to 6+ hours, so after 17:00 defaults to being over two days and it is too easy to miss changing the end date.
Is there a way out of this?

In the month view, it's all down to the number of events you have on that day plus the size of the window/resolution of the screen.
If there's room, iCal will display all of an event's description, but if you shrink the window or add more events, the description will reduce in size- eventually into two columns - to give a chance of seeing all of them. Once there are more events than fit, you'll see an elipsis ( ... } at the top of the day. When this happens, you can only see ALL that day's events by going to week or day views.
You can potentially fit more in on the month view by turning-off the option to show the event time in month view in iCal Preferences.

Hi,
I am using Windows 8.1
I have an External Hard Disk i have partitioned it to 4 parts.
One drive is now inaccessible due to sudden power failure while listening Music from that drive few days ago.
Now it shows "Data error (Cyclic redundancy check)".
I tried all the procedures provided here like
chkdsk /f, diskpart, rescan etc
but no result :( (i mean all processes failed. They could not detect the drive).
Please help me to get those data, pictures and project files.
thank you
