ICal: Hot to change "Day starts at" (iPad)

Hey there,
asked a couple of times before, still couldn't find any help where so ever
Do you guys know where I can change the "Day starts at:" preference on the iCal for iPad? It doesn't work setting it up on the mac and then syncing it, unfortunately!!
I'm very looking forward to your responses and thank you very much in advance, highly appreciated!
Best,
Rafael

You can't change the start day of the calendar, the app has no setting to make the change. The only way that you can do this is by changing the region format to a country where the calendar starts on a different day, but that is not a viable solution since it will change your time and other things associated with the country.

ICal on iPad - how do I change the time the day starts?

On the iPad iCal, the day starts at 12am, and there's a scrollbar for scrolling through the 24 hours of the day. I pretty much won't have any events before 8am, so I want to customize my calendar so that the day starts at 8, and I can see a lot more of the day instead of having to scroll alllll the way down to 8am. The way it is right now, if I go into week or day view, it'll start up at 12am and I'll have to scroll down to view most of my events.
Thanks in advance for any answers - apologies by the way if this has been asked and answered before, I'm not quite sure how to search for discussion topics inside a community.

I have been searching as I have the same question - When my ICal comes up each morning on my, I would like the screen view to begin at 8 am. I am thinking that it is not possible to do this from what I have been able to find but just wanted to check it out to be sure I cannot do this! Thanks for any assistance someone can give me!
Although I see the question by Sixthrain and clicked on the Latest Reply, nothing came up.
PS I have a laptop, not an IPad.

Help!!! My iCal has only 28 days for february 2006 , how can I change this

Help!!! My iCal has only 28 days for february 2006 , how can I change this?
Is there a way to fix it?
thanks.

Hi Apnewbie,
I copied the info below from iCal's help pages. I found it by going to the Help>iCal Help menu item in iCal and entering "add event" in the search box.
You might also want to search for "tips" in iCal's help.
1. Click the name of the calendar you want to add an event to.
2. In Day or Week view, drag from the start time to the end time for the event, then type a subject for the event. In Month view, double-click the white area on the day you want the new event to appear, then type a subject.
You can also quickly create a new one hour event by double-clicking in the main calendar view.
3. To make any other changes to your event (for example, how often it repeats or whether it has an alarm), click the Info button in the bottom-right corner of the iCal window to open the Info drawer, and make your choices.
In Day or Week view, you can also open the Info window by double-clicking the bar along the top of the event (where the event's start time appears).
If the selected event will take place in a different time zone (for example, if you will be traveling to another location for a meeting), choose iCal > Preferences and make sure the "Turn on time zone support" checkbox is selected in the Advanced pane. Then choose a time zone for this event from the "time zone" pop-up menu in the Info drawer.
For more information about changing the alarm, time zone, or how often the event occurs, click "Tell me more."
4. To invite someone to the event, click None next to "attendees" and type the email address of each person you want to invite, separated by commas. When you're ready to invite these guests to your event, click the Send button at the bottom of the Info drawer.
If you're inviting someone whose contact information is stored in your Mac OS X Address Book, you can also type just their name in the attendees field. Matching email addresses appears as you type.
For more information about inviting guests to events, click "Tell me more."

ICal Day start @?

I use iCal to sync with both my macbook pro and My iPad... and I love how well it "sync's" data rather than duplicates or messes up my data managed from multiple devices. However I feel a bit "special" being as on my computer iCal is locked to the PM, saying the day starts at Noon to Midnight, and I cannot make anything happen in the AM... Any suggestions?

This for Calendar on my Mac which of course effects my iPhone and iPad.
I don't need to see the hours from 1 am to 6 am
Please help!

Well, assuming all of the above, Notifications, etc., it just might be time for a visit to the Apple tore genius center for a session with the techs. See if it is a fault in the hardware or just an iOS reinstall is the answer.
One more thing you could try, backup so you have a record of content, then restore to factory conditions be an Erase All Contents and Settings. Then restore from the backup you just made. That has helped some with WiFi problems, may be it would work with your problems.
But with that behavior of another app with problems, the geniuses looks like a less stressful thing to do.

Calendar day start/end time not changing...

I don't know whether this is a bug in Calendar or I'm just missing something. I have my 'Day starts at' set to 8AM and 'Day ends at' set to 11PM in the preferences window, but the Calendar simply would not change and it's driving me crazy. I never had this problem with Mountain Lion, but since I updated to this new MacBook Pro with Mavericks it just wouldn't work.

Hi boris,
1. minor problem
2. we have to REFRESH the time value
3. using GET TIME.
(Then it will work correctly)
4.
START-OF-SELECTION.
GET TIME.
GV_ST_TIME = SY-UZEIT.
END-OF-SELECTION.
GET TIME.
GV_EN_TIME = SY-UZEIT.

Change calendar day start time?

Is it possible to change the starting time of the day on my iCloud calendar? I mean, I don't want my iCloud calendar to open up showing 12 midnight at the top, I want it to start at 8A. I am unable to find anything in settings to do it, nor can I find this question asked in Help forums more recently than 2012.
Even when I change it to show 12 hours or 24 hours, it still has 12 Midnight at the top. I don't want that, I don't plan anything at midnight.
I'm using:
iPhone 5S
iOS 8.1.3
iCloud v 4.0.2
Desktop: Windows 7 Ultimate
TIA,
Audrey

I hope I'm not asking for the impossible, I hope there is a way to do this. Please let me know if you know how!
Thanks again.

Why can I not change the alert of 9am on Calendar. My day starts far earlier so I am unable to attend to the alert. I am sure there are many who begin their day by 7am at the latest

Why can the 9am default alert in Calendar not be changed. I start my day far earlier so any alert appears too late to act upon. I am sure there are many many others whose day starts long before 9am. Alerts a day, a week or whatever earlier are not practical if action is to be taken on a specific day

kaeandcolesmon,
If you open the recovery drive (partition) it should only have a single folder (Recovery).
To make sure that your not saving restore points to that drive.
See:
Start, Control Panel, System, System Protection tab. Make sure the D drive partition is set to OFF so that it does not save there.

You can log out of her account by tapping on the id on the right-hand side of Settings > Store and you can then log in with your id - is that what you want to do ?

I work night shift, how do I change what time my day starts?

I work nights so my "day" starts in the late afternoon. It is weird when Siri tells me my day starts early at 5 am when that is more like the end of my "day". How do I change the calendar and Siri so something in the evening is the first thing on my agenda?

Chris CA wrote:
You don't.
The day still starts and ends at midnight, regardless of you personal work hours.
No kidding. How do I stop the notification center/Siri from talking about things late in my personal work hours as if they are first thing I'm going to do? For example, Notification Center says "Your day starts early tomorrow. There are 3 events scheduled, and the first one starts at 3:30 AM." That's the middle of my "afternoon" and I've already done other things since waking up. How do I get my phone to treat it like that?

ICal Calendar Colors Changing On Their Own; iCloud Connection

AGGRAVATING PROBLEM:
Many in this forum have written recently about a problem ongoing for people with multiple iCal calendars where iCal calendar colors change "automatically" when you haven't selected those colors, or even "change back" before your eyes to some color your DIDN'T select after you select a new one. If you log into iCloud on the Web and try to change the color of certain calendars, they refuse to change. Try as you might, the color you want for your calendar won't "stick" and it is forced to be the wrong color on all your devices. In some cases, even the names of some of the calendars cannot be changed. On other calendars in your list, the colors and names will change fine.
Related symptoms: Calendars you have deleted "come back."   Or, calendars you did not create yourself show up in your calendars list, such as "Calendar" or "Home" or even "Untitled." Note that the problem seems to be most prevalent with calendars with names "Home," "Work," OR either of these words in the NAME of the calendar. For instance, "Bob's Work" might get snagged (it can't be deleted without coming back or its color is stuck and "comes back").
I spent a long time on the phone with a helpful Apple senior advanced specialist on this problem today. We conducted a very large number of "experiments". Our family has two iPads, 2 iPhones, and 2 iMacs, so it was easy to rule things in or out. I will present some information that may help.
SOME OF WHAT APPEARS TO BE GOING ON:
First, Apple has not resolved this. But the problem appears to be related to iCloud, and NOT to individual devices. After de-linking all of my individual devices from iCloud, I could change any of the colors or names at will on any given device, create new calendars and then change their colors to whatever I wish, delete calendars, change names...no problem. However, after re-linking calendars to iCloud, all the problems mentioned above returned. The chances that my iMacs, iPhones, and iPads are all causing the problem independently is very low. They also have slightly different OS versions on them, so it is not likely an a particular device OS, though that could be indirectly related. Also, the colors "change back" within about the same time (usually a few seconds to up to 30 seconds) that it takes to do a "refresh" (i.e. an update) to the iCloud servers. This when iCloud is turned on, and the absence of it when iCloud is turned off (for calendars), strongly suggests that it is the iCloud server and its interaction with your devices that the fundamental cause of the problem.
Apple has said that they are aware of this problem and their engineers are working on a fix. Historically, this can mean just a few days, or it could be a few months, years, or "whenever." They don't give estimates of when it will be fixed. Exactly WHY this is happening is unclear, but my guess is that it is a modification to the iCloud server code that Apple implemented without testing it thoroughly enough to discover this problem. Apple does not admit to that, of course and I don't know if I am correct.
A WORKAROUND SOLUTION THAT WORKED FOR ME:
Please note this is a workaround and not a full fix. Apple needs to run a patch on their iCloud server code. Until then, I did the following which seems to have worked for me for now. Read the whole list before deciding whether to proceed. I don't guarantee it will work in all situations.
Note...I found I was stuck for now with the color of ONE of my calendars. If you are like me, you want to keep that one and work around it....
Backup first... Make sure that your iCloud copy of your calendar data has the calendar event information you want to save - even if the color is wrong. Log in at www.icloud.com and do a refresh to sync to the Cloud. Check over your calendars online to make sure the event data appears to be there for all of your calendars (even if their color or name is not what you want).
Steps:
1.     Go to every device that you have linked to iCloud separately. Go into Settings, iCloud, and then uncheck the "Calendars" option. This delinks your calendars for that device to iCloud. As you do this on each device, when prompted, select "Keep On My" ..iPAD...iPhone...iMac... etc. This will preserve the calendar information on the device so it won't be deleted. I think this is safer, but you can click on "Delete" if you want, too. Note - if one of your devices is an iMac, with OSX Lion and before, you may be forced (I was) to delete the iCloud calendars from the iMac. So again, make sure they are backed up to the Cloud first (or somewhere else).
3.     With the iCloud Calendars Option on all your devices still turned off, go to the WEB and log into iCloud.com. You need to figure our which calendar iCloud won't let you change the color for. You probably already know. On iCloud.com, click on "Calendars," then click open your calendar list and select "EDIT" at the bottom of the dialog box. One at a time, click on the color dots next to each calendar name and try to change the color (you can put any back after the test if you want). You will probably see a certain one that just goes right back to what you don't want. This is the one for which the color is stuck, but you may be able to change the name of it now that your devices are unlinked from iCloud.
4.     Still in iCloud.com, change the names and colors of any of the other calendars you wish to change. Delete any empty calendars that mysteriously appeared without your wanting them. Take note of all the calendars, names, and colors that are on the final list of calendars.
5.     On EVERY device, BEFORE turning iCloud back on on ANY of them: Change the colors and/or names of calendars, delete calendars, etc. so that the calendar names and colors on the device are exactly the same as what you left in iCloud.com in the last step.
6.   One at a time on each device, go back to Settings and then "iCloud" and check again the box for "Calendars." You will be asked whether you want to "MERGE" your data with iCloud. I selected MERGE to ensure I didn't lose anything. Link each device again into iCloud one at a time.
7. When each device is back, go back to iCloud on the Web, or go into iCAL on one of your devices. Set to view ALL calendars. Look for duplicates of some of your events. I found quite several as an artifact of "merging", but in my case it only took me about 5 minutes to go through quickly and delete the duplicates. It deleted the duplicates on all of the devices at once, so I only needed to delete dups on one device. I did not find that I lost any events as long as I kept one valid copy.
Again, no guarantees...hope this works for others. Good luck.

I'm getting the same thing and it's really bugging me! Keeps changing colour to one I do not want and I have tried everything to get it to stay the colour I have chosen!!

Bug(?) with iCal - Can not change the event time

Hello all,
First of all, let me preface my question by admitting that I'm new to the Mac world, transitioning from MS environment. So please, be a bit patient
Now, on to my problem:
I have created events in iCal and I can not change the time for any event. The time that's always displayed is 15:54! I have checked the time zone setting to on/off to se if it makes a difference, but to no avail. I have also gone into preferences and under the General Tab, the Day starts at and the Day ends at: show three (3) selections; Noon, 15:54, Midnight !!???
I have changed the Show hours at a time, to see if that makes a difference, but it does not.
To add to the above mystery, I have created events with my mobile SonyEricsson K850i, with the correct time(s), date, etc., synchronized with iCal and the time changed to 15:54!!
This is a new MacBook Pro, with the latest patches! For some reason the iCal applet does not allow any changes to the time.
Any suggestions/help will be greatly appreciated.

Hi
I am having the exact same problem you discussed and was wondering whether you ever found a solution.
Cheers,
Anna
