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 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!

  • Iweb background stretches when objects are moved around the page

    Hello, I am creating a simple site in iWeb and I cannot get my background image to be consistent through all of my pages. What I mean is the position of the image varies slightly through the pages. In my home page (and all of my other pages)the background is set to "Image Fill" and "Scale to Fill", and the page sizes are all the same at 700px wide by 480px high. I have the nav bar and page heading/title positioned exactly the same on all pages also.
    I notice that when I move around text boxes that are in a page the background stretches or shrinks depending on the position of the box, and am assuming that this has something to do with it, but like I said before, the navigation and header "text boxes" are all positioned the same. Is there any way to turn off this scaling of the background when moving objects around the page? Or does anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this image and make it consistent through all of my pages? Thanks for your help.

    When you set as image as a page background and set it to scale for fill, when you move text downward, extending the length of the page, the image size will change no matter what fill option is used, fit, fill stretch or tile. Using the original size will keep the image exactly the same in all instances but if the page is lengthened beyond the images height you'll get the browser's background to show in the page. But, if you size the image you're using to be taller than any of your pages it will be fixed in all your pages. NOTE: You can use this method only on White and Black blog layouts. However it the blog length gets long it will extend beyond the image height. So set up the image and blog accordingly.
    Try using the image for the browser background and set the page background to none. That will keep the image the same for all layouts. If you have a blog you can change the theme to White or Black, depending on the font color needed, and can use the image for browser background method. The image will need to be large enough to fill the browser's window and will be locked at the left edge. That is if the browser window is widened the image will not be centered but set at the left side of the window.

  • Events are moving to the next day (automatically!!!!)

    A while ago i noticed that my upcoming events were on the wrong day. in fact they were one day too late. i thought i put them on the wrong day and forgot it.
    but recently i had the same problem and now i really suspect iCal of moving my events on the wrong day (=one day later).
    anyone knows this mysterious behaviour?
    here are my specs:
    Tiger 10.4.10
    iCal 2.0.5.
    thanks!

    Seems that contents in the Main Window are overflowing. Try to increase the height of the Main Window. If still you face such issue than try to decrease the upper margin.
    Thanks,

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Moving Around the Timeline

    Hi,
    Just a quick question about moving around the timeline. I'm using the up and down arrow keys to jump between cuts, but for some reason I can jump back beween cuts, but when clips are stepped up it doesn't seem to let me jump forward to the next edit.(I'm on the FCP keyboard config)
    Also, to jump forward the begining, or back to the end I'm supposed to use the home/end key. does anyone know what this is on a MacBook Pro keyboard?
    Thx

    I'm using the up and down arrow keys to jump between cuts, but for some reason I can jump back beween cuts, but when clips are stepped up it doesn't seem to let me jump forward to the next edit.
    I assume you're referring to when you have more than one track with clips on them. In that case, you need to be mindful of which tracks are targeted; that controls which tracks are subject to the Next/Previous Edit commands.
    For example:
    Any track that isn't targeted will be ignored by the Next/Previous Edit commands. Just click the header "button" to enable or disable a track. Track targeting affects many other operations in Premiere Pro--for example, adding edits or applying transitions. Check out this Help document page for some more info: Targeting tracks
    Not sure about the MBP keyboard question, but a Google search for such turned up this: Home and End Keys on the Macbook Pro

  • 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.

  • 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.

    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.

    I need to know how to "compress" the Folder Tree.  The File folders are moving to the right and out of sight in Lightroom 5.

    A couple of suggestions that may help:
    - Make sure you've made the left-hand column as wide as possible by grabbing the divider between the column and the Library grid view.
    - You can hide a parent folder from the display by right-clicking it and selecting Hide This Parent. This will shift all the child folders to the left.

  • When using 'sponge' effect on a fill, how do I get rid of the white 'pixellations' (if that is what they are called around the edges of the fill?

    When using 'sponge' effect on a fill, how do I get rid of the white 'pixellations' (if that is what they are called around the edges of the fill?

    I tried to give you this solution before, but maybe you missed it. This simple procedure will mask out all the various sponge edge-artifacts. Here it is in simple steps:
    1. Make the path shape you want to apply the sponge effect to.
    2. Highlight that path, and select Object > Path > Offset path ... choose +2 points (or whatever works for your drawing scale, to ultimately eliminate the outside line and the artifacts) -- this will make a slightly larger shape, based on the original shape.
    3. Cut the outside path (command or alt-X), select the inside path, and paste the outer path BEHIND the inner path (command or alt-B).
    4. Apply the sponge effect to the OUTER path.
    5. Highlight BOTH paths, and create a MASK (command or alt-7).
    Now you have your original shape, with sponge applied, and the outer 2 points (or whatever your Offset Path was set to), are masked out, masking out the outside line and the sponge artifacts.
    This works with any Document Raster Effect Settings dpi.

  • Scroll FX - Content container are moving outside the browser.

    Hi together!
    I have a question, that makes me mad since a month or so.
    I am curious if anyone has an answer or can at least tell me where I made the mistake...
    I made a small one page site - no Master page. The browser fill is a mosaic with a scroll effect.
    The navigation is made with icons and I used anchors to navigate to the single points.
    All works fine on my PC.
    But when I visit the page on another PC, or Mac, or change Browsers and I use the navigation, or simply scroll down, the pages (content containers) start to move to the left.
    I am sure it has something to do with the anchors, but I am not sure ...
    In older versions I always put the anchos at the right or left side of the page, so they wouldn't disturb me. But a few days ago I saw a tutorial, and this guy placed all the anchors in the center of the page.
    So I did - this time - the same. And it really works fin on MY PC - but nowhere else ...
    Please if anyone can help me this would be great!!
    This is the link to the page.
    http://dus00101.businesscatalyst.com/
    The screenshot below shows how it looks in IE.
    You can clearly see, that the containers for the content are moving to the left side.
    Its always the left side - never the right!
    Thank you in advance for your help.
    Michelle

    The content on the page is 1500 pixels wide. (As you resize the browser window smaller the horizontal scroll bar appears when the browser window is less than 1500 pixels wide. As long as the browser window is narrower than 1500 pixels, there will be a horizontal scroll bar and horizontal scrolling will occur when scrolling to an anchor.
    If all the anchors are at the same x: position, then once the page has been scrolled to one of the anchors all subsequent scrolling will be vertical only (unless the user manually scrolls horizontally to a different position).
    If you visit a parallax site such as http://muse.adobe.com the content is 980px wide.
    You can turn off the ability to scroll horizontally, which will hide the horizontal scrollbar, using a snippet of code pasted into the Page Properties <head> section, but doing so is strongly discouraged since it will interfere with the normal navigation of your site for those visiting your site on small screens.
    <style type="text/css">
    body {

    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.
