ICal does not assert defined alerts

Ever since installing Leopard, iCal does not announce any of the alerts I have defined. It seems to have lost its voice. Even Alex seems to be napping on the job and I had previously had such high regard for him.

Ditto,
I have this issue as well. Can anyone suggest a possible solution ("Badge app icon" is ticked in the notification system preferences).
Many thanks

Update.....Just read somewhere that the badge only appears when you receive an invite to an event. It won't show for just normal calendar events that fire at the alert time.

  • Just converted from MobileMe to iCloud. But now my iCal does not sync with either my iPhone or iCloud.  What have I missed?

    Just converted from MobileMe to iCloud.  But now my iCal does not sync to my iPhone or iCloud.  What did I do wrong?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Is calendar syncing enabled on both the computer and the phone.
    Are your calendars in your iCloud group and not in a on my mac group.
    only calendars in the iCloud group will sync.

  • Somehow my calender was erased. How do I restore it? I have time machine. Fortunately it was synched with Outlook, so I still have it there. But Ical does not recognize the Outlook file. Is there a way to restore from Outlook? resi

    Somehow my calendar in iCal was deleted. It was not archived. I have Time Machine. How do I restore? Fortunately it was synched to Outlook, so it is not lost. I would like to out it back in iCal but iCal does not recognize the Outlook file.

    Thank you. It's all back to normal (took around 7 hours on the late 2009 iMac). Time Machine's become better now compared to the last time I used it to migrate everything automatically (Snow Leopard days). With Maverick's Time Machine, it's almost like a cloning (except for the password) tool now. But it's always great to name the account and maybe the hardisk the same names so can just replace a newly installed OS.
    God bless. Thanks again.

  • ICal does NOT store my selected Calendars.

    iCal does NOT store my selected Calendars.  I must re-check them after launching iCal or Calendar is blank. How do I fix this?

    Which calendars is it not storing ? Are they local or iCloud ? From calendar preferences have you got at least a default calendar selected ?
    If it is not updating your iCloud calendars it is probably because they are still at the default Push setting.
    From the menu bar select iCal > Preferences and then select Accounts. Make sure they are being refreshed at an interval that suits you.

  • Ical does not let me change event time

    I use OS 10.5.2. My ical does not let me change the minutes. It always defaults to :40(ie 10.40, 8:40, etc.) and it does not let me change the day. It always defaults to day 30(ie 1/30/08, 4/30/06, etc.)
    any help?
    Thanks,

    maguas,
    Welcome to Apple Discussions.
    I am not familiar with the MacBook Pro keyboard or the modifier keys, but try using the Up/Down arrow keys on your keyboard to make the day/time changes.
    Let us know if that works.

  • With 10.7.2 update iCal does not allow you to set "Reminders" by draging events from "All Day Events" into "Reminders" is there another way to do this instead of having to type out the entire reminder with date, time, and type?

    With 10.7.2 update iCal does not allow you to set "Reminders" by draging events from "All Day Events" into "Reminders" is there another way to do this instead of having to type out the entire reminder with date, time, and type?
    With Lion 10.7.1. you where able to drag events from "All Day Events" into the "Reminders" bar to create upcoming reminders.

    Exactly the same question I was about to post!
    Great being able to sync reminders (well overdue) however if I have to re-type a calener envent into reminders it's a waste of time!! 
    Come on Apple!!
    Just need an option for the calender event to add to reminder or the old drag to add to reminder functionality back, Please???

  • ICal does not update status when someone accepts my invitation

    If I send a meeting request out from iCal, and someone accepts, their status in iCal does not change, i.e. in the event, the icon against their name remains as a grey question mark and does not change to a green tick. This is annoying because of course the whole point is to see who is or is not coming to your meeting!
    Why is this please, and is there a fix?
    (I have found references to this issue on here but they are from several years back. Just wondering if there has been a fix since then that I'm missing. Thanks.)

    As if by magic it is now working. I went away from the mac for a couple of hours, came back and it started to work. This is scary as I would expect this kind of action on a Mickysoft machine but not a Mac. Ho Hum - at least the problem has been sorted even if I don't know how.

  • After install snow leopard, ical does not show the events of some calendars

    After I install snow leopard, ical does not show all the events, or simple does not show the events of some calendars that I created.
    Can somebody solve this problem? Is there some update for ical?

    Try the following:
    1 - Go to your user account home folder, and open the library folder within it.
    Look for the folder named "Calendars" and inside you might find a bunch of different folders with weird names. If they are there that means your calendars might not be lost.
    2 - Look for the file "Calendar Cache". That file might be corrupted. Trash it. You may want to save a copy of it elsewhere. Once trashed, re-open ical. This should force it to rebuild its library based on those folders with weird names you saw. Your calendars should be back. Good luck

  • Lion 10.7.1. Searching on iCal does not work

    I have Lion 10.7.1. Searching on iCal does not work. Also, I tried searching form the  spotlight search , it does not retrieve calendar entries. Note: my calendar files are on an encrypted disk image (but I enable the disk image , I can see the calendar).
    Any advice ?

    I have been searching for an answer to this problem for about 6 months.  I took it to 2 genius'! Neither could find the problem and suggested I completely wipe my hard drive and reinstall all the software.  There ahs to be another way!

  • 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 does not allow me to edit "minutes" in the appointments. when i make an appointment it defaults it to xxhrs 08mins (example 16:08) how can i make an appointment for 16:00 or 15:30 hrs ...etc.

    Hi,
    You can change this in System Preferences, Language & Text.
    Go to System Preferences > Language & Text > Formats tab and change where it says Custom to your location. Then re-open iCal.
    Let us know how it goes.

  • First time using ical.  Adding an invitee and ical does not accept address

    First time using ical.  adding invitee and ical does not accept address

    CHRIS A123,
    Welcome to Apple Discussions.
    1. Quit iCal, and open System Preferences...>Language & Text>Formats>Region:>reset/choose the appropriate region...also check what you have set in Dates/Times
    2. If that is unsuccessful, I also recommend using the Mac OS X v10.6.2 Update (Combo).

  • My iCal does not sync with my iphone . help.  it worked fine in mobleme

    My iCal does not sync between my iMac and iPhone consistantly.  It worked fine with mobleme.   Any solutions?

    Make sure that your Mac is subscribed to iCloud and is logged on to the calendar, there is no 'sync' in iCloud, whatever MM did is irrelevant.

  • After Installing Lion, Ical does not work.  I cannot print, I cannot add an event, etc.  How do I reinstall?

    Since installing Lion OS, iCal does not work.  I cannot add an event, print calendar, etc.  How do i reinstall?

    You can use Lion Recovery
    Before you do that, go to ~/Library/Preferences
    Move the com.apple.iCal.plist file from the Preferences folder to the Trash.
    Restart your Mac.
    See if you can print or add an event now.

  • My ical calender does not send email alerts anymore, now what?

    The alerts are configured correctly, if I look at the alert it says that an email will be send (for ex. 09.00 the day before). However when the moment comes, the email does not. Can anyone help me with this one. This is the case since the upgrade to Mavericks.

    Hi Patrick, I have the same problem as does everybdy else I guess - it just wont work!
    I have set My Card in address book, tested it 100 times and whatever you do it ill not send an email alert? Everything I see on forums blah blahs about setting my card in address book and hey presto but none of it helps.
    Someone MUST know if it will ever work or if it is another issues that apple will never resolve, instead they will just ruin a perfectly nice looking operating system by updating it and making my phone icons and notes / bookshelf etc look like it was bought from Toys R Us instead of an Apple store!
    Did you find a solution to iCal not sending email alerts? DAVID.
