Ical limitation with all day events

I fill up my calendar quite a lot with all day events. The space allowed for the events is limited so some events don't show. There should be a stretchable bar to allow visibility or not.
I wonder how to pass on this suggestion to Apple.

Agrr, I couldn't find how to delete this question. As often when i get to ask a question i get the answer. My events don't disappear, they are there and there is a scroll bar that shows when i scroll in the all day event part.

ICal imports Palm all day events as 2 day events - easy to fix?

Hi,
I want to make the switch from Palm desktop 4 to using iCal 3 but I've run into a problem. When I import the vcal exported from Palm, the iCal makes all of the all (one) day events into 2 day events.
Is there anyway to fix this so the all day event displays only on the day it was set for in Palm?
I'm hoping I don't have to do all of these by going back to my oldest events and changing the dates by hand because I have almost 9 years of data in my Palm calendar.
Thanks.

Just to update what I've been trying without success.
I exported the Palm datebook as .csv file. I then edited any entries that began and ended the same day without any times, i.e. the one day all day events, to begin at 12:01am and end at 11:59pm. Then after backing up my Palm user data and prefs, I erased my Palm data and reimported this .csv file into Palm desktop, then I reexported it to a vCal and imported that into iCal.
It made a mess out of things because I discovered some of these all day events also repeated. I'm not sure what to do with repeating events.
I tried going into iCal and manually changing the events but then I end up with many duplicates if they are repeating.
I exported the iCal data and opened it in Text Wrangler. Then I exported the calendar from Sunbird. It seems like the iCal is adding an extra "end date" that isn't in the file when I import it into Sunbird.
Any other suggestions would be appreciated.

No iCal alert on "All day" events in Lion :-(

When creating an "All day event" in iCal in OSX Lion the event is not preset with an alert as it used to be in Snow Leopard. That is frustrating as we now have to this this manually.

How? I doubleclick an empy space in the top area underneath the leather to make an appointment. This then becomes an All day event but when I edit it I see that the alarm is not set. I have to do this manually. Only hour based events will get the default alert set.

Issue with All Day events - post Australian Daylight Savings change.

Hi all,
I have had a weird problem occur since daylight savings has changed for Australia.
I sync my Microsoft Outlook 2003 on my PC and calender on my iPhone. This works great and I have never had a problem until now. Since Sunday, 'all day' events created on Outlook are going into the previous day on the iPhone, and any 'all day' events created on the iPhone are spread across two days on Outlook.
All the timezones and clocks are correct on both devices and any specifc time appointments are correct on both devices. This only applies to All Day Events.
The other strange thing is that it only occurs for days between now and the last weekend in October. Interestingly enough this was the old date of daylight savings changeover before it was brought forward in 2007.
I think what is happening is that the iPhone's timezone doesn't know that it is daylights savings yet, even though the cell network is updating the clocks and making it appear correct.
This is also happening to my colleague.
Not sure how to fix this. Surely this is happening to others.
Any help would be great...

i noticed with a client and outlook, when syncing with m.me i had a similar problem where i made an all day event and vs 1 day it was two.. the problem was tracked down to how outlook makes the event; it made a '24 hr event' not an 'untimed' event.
I unchecked the 'all day even't and it showed the event going from midnight to midnight (which for no good reason it called that the next day which it is not).. I shortened up the duration to a few hours mid-day and then checked the 'all day' check and it made it one day again.
post if it works.

ICal repeating old all day events...?

Hi, thanx for reading...
I had seen duplicate events, but this is so weird!
Some all day events such as birthdays are shown like 10 times the same day at the same hour, just like that...
When trying to delete copies to see if keeping one copy the problem solves, there seems to be more duplicate than graphicaly shown... so i cant delete all the duplicates...
Snow leopard 10.6.5
Any ideas???

Exact same problem here. December 13th of 2010 has an infinite number of all-day birthday events on it. No matter how many I delete, new ones keep appearing.

Problem with all day events on iPad calendar spanning multiple days instead of one

I'm having an issue editing all day events on my iPad calendar. If I reschedule an event to the following day, it now spans the two days instead of just one.
The issue only happens on my iPad. I can reschedule appointments on my iPhone without any problems. Date and time zone are set correctly.

I experience the same when we subscribe on calendars (ICS) from Exchange. Been testing on two iPads 3 (6.0.1). The strange thing is that everything work as normal on my iPhone 4S (6.0.1). The timezone is correct and the all same on all three devices (default setting).
The meeting details (fetched live from Exchange) is also naturally the same. Far as I can see, this applies only the on iPads?

All day events in iCal on 3Gs w/ iOS 4.0.2 show up day early in List view

For some reasons, all day events on my Calendar (iCal synced via MobileMe) are showing up a day earlier on my iPhone, but only when I use List view. They appear fine when I use iCal on my MBP or iMac. This happens with all day events on my calendars and subscribed calendars (e.g., birthdays).
If I tap on an event in the Day or Month view, the correct date is listed. If I tap on it in the List view, the day before is listed as the date.
What in the heck is going wrong here?

I am having the same problem. I have tried different scenarios and it looks like its an issue with syncing from MobileMe. I thought I had it beat when I saw my preferences for in iCal were set to to start at 8AM and end at 6PM. I made it Midnight to Midnight but that did not fix it.
I am perplexed - has to be a bug!

Duplicate All-Day events in Entourage, iCal and iPhone

When I sync my iPhone calendars at work, I am getting duplicate all day events (ie, birthdays, anniversary, etc). I'm using the Entourage sync services to create an iCal.
Is anyone having a similar problem or solution?
Thanks!

I have had a similar problem with all-day events in Entourage.
So far, I have had to manually delete the unwanted all-day events, but once deleted, they have not come back.
My theory is this: I already was syncing Entourage and iCal even before the iPhone. When I added the iPhone, it added a Calendar called "Entourage" to the iCal. It synced Entourage, my home iCal, my work iCal, and the iPhone to the iCal "Entourage" Calendar, leading to multiple junk. I added an application to my Mac which automatically keeps track of library books I have checked out, and puts the due dates on my iCal. When I added this, I got a whole new round of double all-day events.
You can delete them either in Entourage or in the iPhone, but I have gotten more reliable results doing it in Entourage.
A keyboard shortcut is to point at the event with your mouse and then type {Apple Key} {backwards delete} d
Hope this helps.

All Day Events Lengthened

I'm experiencing an issue with all day events. Using my Presidents' Day event as as example. In Entourage and iCal it shows as a single day event. When I sync it with my iPhone, the event ends up being two days long. I've checked time zones in all programs (Entourage, iCal, iTunes) and they are all aligned as they should be.
Has anyone experienced a similar issue? Does anyone have a solution or thoughts?
Thanks.

I'm having the same problem. It gets really confusing for me becuase I'm using the "All Day Event" to show which administrator has coverage for each day. Entourage and iCal display beautifully/correctly but when syncing to the iPhone I have two administrators listed each day when only one should be coverina a 24 hour period.
I can sync directly from my PC at work but then I lose all of my personal calendar items that I have on iCal at home.
Any suggestions? This is a 5 day per week, cycling (not recurring) date issue so it involves hundreds of instances per year. ...very frustrating.

Word Wrap on all-day events?

When I create an all-day event, if the event name is too long to fit on one line, it does not wrap to the next line (like it does with a timed event) and the event is truncated. How can I see all of the event name with all-day events? The problem exists with Month and Week views

This same problem has happened to me as well. However this occurs when I sync iCal with my 5G iPod.
MacBook Pro 15in 2.33 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo

All Day Events Showing as 24 Hour Events (Nokia N95)

Hi,
I'm syncing a Nokia N95 using the Nokia iSync plugin.
My all day events are shown on the phone as 24 hour long events. Is there a way to stop this?
Many thanks
David

I agree with David.
I have "Japanese holidays" on iCal imported from /ical/librar as "all day events".
Also I have many "not-time-specific events", like the name of trade shows I may attend, as all day events on iCal.
I guess that is the way a lot of people use "all day events" on iCal.
So "all day events" on iCal should be synced as "memos" on the phone.
Otherwise, the weekly view looks ugly and any meetings entered on the same day conflict with the name of the holiday or trade show...
I just hope Apple or Nokia fixes this problem soon.

Calendar All Day Events, Calculated Columns, Timezone and DayLight Savings - Issues

Hi
I have a calendar where I am trying to display in one column using a calculated field (TitleWithTimes):
Start time (only display time) - End Time (only display time) : Title i.e. 00:00 - 23:59 : Test Event
So I add an all day event to the calendar for this month (February), it appears correctly:
i.e. 00:00 - 23:59 : Test Event 1
I am based in the UK so my time zone is currently GMT/UTC.
However if I add any all day events to the calendar in April when the time zone switches to GMT+1, the start and end times appear incorrect.
i.e 01:00 - 00:59 : Test Event 2
Field: TitleWithTimes
=TEXT([Start Time],"hh:mm")&" - "&TEXT([End Time],"hh:mm")&" : "&Title
This issue only occurs with ALL Day Events when the events are scheduled for a in the period of the year where the Time Zone becomes GMT + 1. My regional settings everywhere in SharePoint are correct as are all the SharePoint servers.
I have done lots of searching and troubleshooting to try and resolve this issue but it appears nobody has found a reliable fix for this issue with calculated fields, all day events and time zones? Does anyone have any ideas of workarounds?
Thanks

Hi,
I understand that you had issues about the calculated field in calendar.
This is a reproducible issue, when creating an all day event, the calculate column based on the Start Time/End Time is different from the original column value. The date is stored in SQL in GMT time and is displayed in SP in the correct time in lists. So
returning the start time in a calculated column for an all day event returns the start time in GMT time, which is not the current time most likely.
As a workaround, you can regenerate the calculate column to add one day/minus one day based on whether the event is an all day event, or create a workflow to copy the start time column to your created date/time column.
Here is a similar thread for your reference:

How do you disable all-day event notifications?

I've already read the various threads about the issues with all-day events disappearing from the Today view and only appearing in the Notifications. However, I am having an issue when trying to disable all-day event notifications. I currently use my all day events from my work calendar (Lotus Notes 8.5) that is synched to my phone. I have disabled the "Notify Me" option within Lotus Notes and changed the default all day event notification on my phone to "None". The problem is that this has not disabled any all day event notification and I still get notified every night at midnight for the event. This didn't happen on iOS 6 or any of the iOS 7 beta versions. Is this something that can be fixed? Thanks!

the Automation quick access should be off by default. I don't think this is what will do it for you, but here is a description of it, Page 320 of the manual
Automation Quick Access
This feature makes Track Automation extremely fast and simple if you only have one hardware MIDI controller available (one fader on your MIDI keyboard, or maybe just the Modulation wheel). You can use this single hardware controller to access (and automate) the currently visible Automation parameter of the selected Track in the Arrange window.
since it is midi messages that you do not want to send from your controller, I think you need to go to song settings an filter out incomming midi messages. File>song settings>midi>imput filter
but really any messages being sent should only effect the channel you are playing. I am assuming you are playing one of logics instruments for live performance.

All day events - synching ical with Symbian S60

I guess this must have come up before.....
I cannot find a way of synching all-day events on iCal with my E90. iSync will not sync iCal all-day events across to the E90, just seems to ignore them. I thought I'd be clever and enter all-days as memos on the E90. Fine when it syncs to iCal - they come across OK as all-days in iCal but, when I sync again, the memos get deleted from the E90. Most strange.

I have the same issue on all day events synced from Exchange. The items look fine in the day or month view.
