ICal events are imported in the wrong calendar

Hello,
I'm using iCloud for business as a temporary solution before moving to a more professional and stable tool.
Still, I'm confronted with annoying problems that are just making my work more difficult.
I'm posting here hoping that somebody would find or has a solution.
I have two iCloud calendars owned by me plus three more shared with me by colleagues.
The two owned by me are: Work and MeetingRoom, with the former being set as the default (both in the Calendar app preferences and in the iCloud Calendar web interface).
I'm trying to accept an invite to a meeting received from a non-iCloud user.
The invite came in the form of an .ics attachment to the email.
When doubleclicking on the attachment, Calendar app opens and an event entry colored in gray is created in the MeetingRoom calendar instead of my default one, which is Work.
What is the purpose of setting a calendar as default when the setting is ignored?
Thanks
Sergio

Thanks. I Think I've figured it out: there was a music file in the same project with an earlier creation date. When I transferred the recent footage to a new event, the new event displayed correctly, as a 2015 event.
This is stretching my old brain, but I think I'm slowly learning that Events are not bins!

  • ICal events are moving around the calender

    I tried to move an event from one date to another tonight, and after that iCal started flashing that event back and forward between the original date to the new one right in front of my eyes, and another event has been replicated and moved to another date.
    I have tried deleting the shifting events, and even deleted calenders that the 2 events are under, but they keep reappearing. I have also tried refreshing the com.apple.ical.plist, and have restarted the machine several times.
    Could this be a virus? I'm too nervous to sync my iphone just in case.
    We have Leopard with all the latest updates (OS X 10.5.8) with iCal 3.0.8

    Worked it out - I was using a custom date format to give me day and date in the menu bar - reverting to one of the standard built in 'British' works - but then I lose my day in the menu bar....

  • ICal events are displayed in the local time zone, not at the time they are supposed to be

    When I enter events in iCal (or in my iPhone calendar), they always display at the time for the zone that I am currently in, even when they occur in a different time zone. For example, if I have a lunch scheduled at 12 pm Monday in Vancouver, I want to see that I have something scheduled at 12 pm on Monday, even if I am in Hong Kong. But even if I have time zone support enabled, the event appears at 4 am Tuesday. This makes it hard to look at the calendar and know what events I have scheduled for what times when I am doing a lot of travel. Is there anyway that I can get the event to show up at 12 pm on Monday no matter where I am in the world?
    Thanks

    This means you're still using Flex 1.5 as your runtime. SAP has introduced Flex 2 RT on SP14 patch 1 onwards. There were a lot of bug fixes and also several new functionality introduced there. I suggest you consider upgrading to the latest SP. Note that you can upgrade VC apart from the portal (only 3 SCAs to deploy) so this means you don't impact the portal itself and continue to have an up-to-date version of VC.
    If you want to solve your problem, I suggest you open a support ticket at SAP and once they see this, they'll let you have those SCAs.

  • I recently removed an outlook account and now all of my calendar events are missing. The majority of them were added from my iphone 4s. How do I retrieve the events? Backing up with iCloud did not help, as I assumed it would.

    Outlook is a mail client for PC's (and Macs). It is not a type of account. Do you mean an "Exchange Account"?
    If so, then re-add it. The calendar events live on the Exchange Server. The only way to get them back is to re-add the account to the phone. The contents of Exchange and IMAP accounts are not part of the 'backup' as they already exist elsewhere.

  • ICal To-Do's and the iPhone Calendar

    Why is it that at this stage of development, Apple has yet to offer a solution to manage and sync iCal to-do's with the iPhone Calendar? Am I missing something? It seems obvious that Apple is giving third party developers the opportunity to write the many wonderful To-Do apps out there, and there are many. The problem is, this doesn't fix the problem of sync-ability. I know that there are ways to sync between these third party apps and things such as their own desktop software (Things), which will then sync to to iCal. There are others that will sync to Google Calendar and/or Google Docs, but this is hardly a simple solution. There are always complications when you start syncing too many things to too many places, as the software doesn't always line up pretty.
    I'm basically just looking for a simple solution to use iCal, my iPhone Calendar and a To-Do function that will sync seamlessly with both. The most natural thing would be for Apple to include To-Do creation in the iPhone Calendar app with full sync capability with iCal. I find it shocking that Apple hasn't written for this.
    There are nice applications out there such as Pocket Informant that integrates a beautiful (and much more powerful calendaring function) with a To-Do function within the same application, but they have no ability to sync with iCal, nor do they have a desktop version of their software.
    If anyone has any ideas on this, or advice on the best way to integrate iCal, To-Do's and the iPhone Calendar, please let me know. In the meantime, I will post feedback to the Apple developers with a seemingly obvious enhancement request.

    With all due respect, I completely disagree with you. Integrating To-Do's and calendar events is a very natural way of organizing things. There is an app called Pocket Informant which does a very nice job in integrating the two. Even Apple thinks they are (and could be related), or else why even include to-do's in iCal to begin with? You see, it is as if they went half way in their effort. They provide something because they think it could be a good idea, but then they put no time or effort into actually making it useful for the end user. The fact that to-do's and notes show up in mail is also pointless. Why do I need mail to see my to-do's on my computer when I could just look in iCal, which is where they were created in the first place.
    Omni focus is a very powerful app. I just think that it is way overkill. What good is an app that helps you get things done, when using it actually impedes getting those things done? It literally takes so much time and effort to work with Omni (if you really want to use it correctly), that you don't have any time left over for the things you need to get done.
    And by the way, don't talk about hourly rates when you use words like "Gentlements", "prolly" (for, I am assuming probably", "proccess" (there is one c) "offence" (it is offense, unless you are from the UK, which I am assuming you are not), to name a few. Anyway, spelling aside, you shouldn't really be judging what people make based on whether someone thinks an app is expensive. The fact is, Omni focus happens to be very expensive. I am not saying that it is not worth it. In fact, I really don't know. I know that it is powerful, but for someone looking for a simple way to manage the important tasks in life, Omni is not for everyone, especially when you are spending upwards of $80 when something like Put Things Off (which I like a lot better) costs around $3.

  • All my iCal events are duplicated after migrating to iCloud

    I upgraded my Mac to 10.7.2 at first and migrate my iCal to iCloud.
    And then I upgraded my iPhone to iOS 5.
    After that I found all my iCal events are duplicated.
    Does anyone know how to fix this? Thanks~~
    I don't have MobileMe.

    When you sign back in to iCloud on the Mac the iCloud calendars should be there if they are also on the web-page iCloud calendar. Did you
    Restarting the iCloud merges On My Mac with iCloud calendars (deleting On My Mac calendars in the process). This is why it is so vital to have .ics backups.
    I think you must be missing a step somewhere. Here's what to do:
    - Create .ics backups on iCal using Export
    - Open iCal>Preferences>Accounts>iCloud and delete the iCloud account
    - Open System Preferences>iCloud uncheck Calendars and Sign Out
    - Import into iCal your .ics calendars, they will be listed as On My Mac on the iCal Calendars list
    - Sign back into iCloud, check Calendars, Agree to Merge despite the warning that calendars will be removed from the Mac
    - Check the web based iCloud calendar and see if the calendars are there.
    - Check iCal under Calendars and be sure that the iCloud calendars are checked in the list (or they will not display).
    If this doesn't work you should make an appointment with an Apple Genius.

    Since day light savings, events are not saving in my calendar. Has anyone else had this problem?, Since day light savings, events are not saving in my calendar. Has anyone else had this problem?

    Greetings,
    I have not heard of that issue although some people have reported events showing an hour earlier / later (though I haven't seen that personally).
    Questions:
    What version of the Mac OS are you running (Apple > About this Mac)?
    Can you make an event and then it just disappears?
    Are you using iCloud / MobileMe / Google / Yahoo / Some other server based calendar?
    Try these in order:
    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.
    Go to Apple Menu > System Preferences > Date & Time and make sure the Date and Time are correct and that the correct Time Zone is selected.
    If that doesn't 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: Click anywhere on the desktop and then click on the "Go" menu at the top of the computer screen while holding down the "option" key on the keyboard.  You will see "Library" in the menu.
    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.

  • ICal events are missing Day and Month in date

    Hello, Sorry if this has been addressed elsewhere - this is such a weird fault I was not sure how to search for it.
    My iCal events are missing the Day and Month in their start and end dates - it just shows a 4 digit year which can only be edited as a 4 digit number. All my events are in their correct places but I am unable to create new multiday events.
    This applies to old and new events alike. I tried trashing my iCal prefs file but it made no difference.
    Anyone any ideas? I am using iCal 3.0.8 on Leopard 10.5.8.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Michael,
    I'm glad iTunes is working now!  If you want to locate iTunes plug-ins on your computer, you can find them in the following locations (you may not have the iTunes Plug-ins folder if you do not have plug-ins):
    Mac:
    /Users/username/Library/iTunes/iTunes Plug-ins/
    /Library/iTunes/iTunes Plug-ins/
    One thing I also wanted to mention is that the "Users/username/Library" is hidden in Lion and Mountain Lion.  You can access it using these steps:
    OS X Mountain Lion: What is the Library folder?
    The Library folder contains files used by OS X and your apps, including your personal fonts and preferences. The Library folder is hidden. If you need to open it, make sure you are in the Finder, hold down the Option key, and then choose Go > Library.
    You can find the full article here:

    i deleted my events in iPhoto Help?  The "events" are not in the trash.  I did download stellar phoenix recovery but not sure what to do

    i deleted my events in iPhoto Help?
    You deleted them in iPhoto on your Mac?
    If you do not have a backup of your iPhoto library, run the recovery program you downloaded, then reimport the folder with recovered photos into iPhoto.
    You will probably have to weed out plenty of seemingly duplicates (thumbnails, previews, and original files), since the program will not be able to reconstruct your events, only find image files.

  • My ical events are still in their folder as files, but ical the program is showing a totally empty calendar

    I did some cache cleaning and permissions repair etc using a program called Onyx.  The next time I opened ical, there is not a single event showing.  (i have at least 30 events per month for the last few years).  I was worried that the files we gone, but when I go into Library>Calendars all the calendar folders are there and the events I created only a few days ago are there as files as well. 
    What I can't understand is why ical is not finding and reading these files.  I used Disk Utility to repair permissions already, and have restarted the computer a few times, but the events have not re-appeared.
    Anyone have any ideas? I really need my ical working again! Thanks so much!!

  • IPad calendar events are showing as the previous day

    On my iPad calendar, events (daily ones rather than specific time ones) are showing as the previous day e.g. Bank holidays are showing that they are a Sunday rather than the Monday. The dates are synced from Outlook which is correct as is my iPhone calendar (synced from the same source). Pretty confused why this is happening and a touch annoyed. Have tried looking at settings but nothing strikes me as being incorrect e.g. I'm on British GMT.

    If you use iCloud check the settings on the icloud website on the right top corner. Sometimes the settings are wrong and the hole sync fails.
