ICal moves events ahead one day

iCal will move random events to the next day.
Example, mothers day to the 12th, Monday.
Is there a fix? We use iCal for appointments and have to back it up with a paper calender just to make sure we don't miss anything.
Needless to say this is very annoying.

When syncing my iPod with iTunes, my appointments
from iCal are all shifted one day ahead on the iPod
(60GB Color).
For example, the correct appointment in iCal is:
Tuesday, at 7pm
On iPod, the appointment shows up as:
Monday, at 7pm
Can someone please tell me what I'm doing wrong?
Pleeeeeease. Thanks in advance.
I have exactly the same problem. Only on recurring entries. I have checked everything to make sure the time, date and timezones are correct.

ICal to Outlook Calendar moves event by one day. Why?

Hi
If I create an event in Outlook Calandar (2011 for Mac, Sp1) it arrives via Syn Services on the correct day in iCal ......... Great!
But
If I create an event in iCal it arrives in Outlook calandar one day out .............. Why?
HELP Please...................
Rgds

Hi,
Have you checked that the two applications are set to the same timezone?
Outlook will have a timezone setting in its Prefernces > Calendars. iCal is either set to the timezone in System Preferences > Date & Time or if you have timezone support set in iCal's > Preferences > Advanced it will be in whatever timezone is shown in the top right of the iCal main window.

ICal move events from one calendar to another with AppleScript

I made an AppleScript to clean up my calendars and thought I would share. My iMac had a calendar called "Home" and my iPhone had a default calendar "Calendar" so I ended up with all of my events spread across two calendars. Decide to clean up and move everything to one calendar.
This script is admittedly not very efficient. The nested repeat loops means it takes a while to run. Feel free to take this as a start point. I have it checking each property for missing value before adding it to avoid errors. I could have added a line to delete the old event after creating the copy, but I was just deleting the whole old calendar after the script ran.
I hope this is helpful to someone. Oh, this was created under Snow Leopard so if you are in Lion you might need to tweak things. I don't know how much the scripting library has changed.

display dialog ("Exists(not copied):" & cntrMatch & " New Copied:" & cntrCopied)

That should not be necessary because I get the value of ID out of another table, where I generate ID with a sequence..
So normally it should just tranfer that row from one table to another. But it doesn't !
Knowing that I cannot create a row in the table wouter_published_posts(I can just move rows from the add_post table to the wouter_published_posts table), It should be inpossible that twice the ID appears. But yet he keeps trowing errors...
help me, please

Ical keeping both events when I move events from one google calendar to another

Hi all!
I use multiple google calendars and sync them with my iPad, iPhone, and MacBook Air. I like to move events from one calendar to another (for color coding purposes), and am coming across a unique issue that I hope someone has a solution to.
When I edit an event by moving the event from one calendar to another the events show up correctly on the iPhone and iPad, but not in my iCal on MacBook Air. (Only when I make the changes on my iPhone and iPad). For example, when I switch an event originally created in my 'appointments' calendar to my 'done' calendar the event shows up appropriately on iPhone and iPad, and even in my Google calendars on the web. But, the iCal on my MacBook Air keeps both events. This only happens when I make the changes from the iPhone or iPad. If I make calendar changes on my computer, then there are no hiccups on any of the devices.
It seems like a syncing issue with iCal, and I can't figure out how to prevent the duplications in my iCal on my computer from showing up. Quite annoying because I have to go in and delete all of the duplicated events on the computer at the end of the day.
I have the Mavericks OS on my MBA and the software on my iPad and iPhone are updated to the latest software.
If you have any suggestions, please let me know! Thanks!

Petrill,
Thank you. I was trying to do that yesterday, but it was grayed out. It seemed to work alright today.
Thanks,
Sheena

Ipad calendar events are one day early

Hello,
I recently switched over to iCloud. And now all-day events are one day early on my iPad only. The dates are fine when I look at iCal on the web, and they're fine on my Mac Pro and my MacBook. I tried resetting the iPad, and it didn't fix it. The time zone is was set to automatic, I tried setting it to manual, but still no change. Any other ideas?
thanks!
Joe

All of my dates are out by one day in ical (and address book). I can change them manually (best advice I could get from Apple), but it keeps happening to me. Any help appreciated, I have 10.8.6; macbook pro, iphone 4s and am frustrated. This seems to be a common problem but I can't find a fix.
In the post above advice is to go to itunes, "info tab", Advanced...but I don't see an "info tab" -
Thanks for any help!

Annoying bug: Recurring events ends one day to soon

Hi!
My calendar is stored in an Microsoft Exchange account on Office365. In order to make it available to my wife, I publish it using the iCalendar format (ICS). However, with iCalendar all recurring events ends one day short. An event recurring three times only occurs twice and so on.
When I sync my iPad och iPhone with both the Exchange account and the ICS, it shows up correctly for the Exchange calendar but wrong for the ICS. It is the same calendar, it just ends up in different ways on my iOS device. As the difference is clearly visible, I can't consider this to be nothing but a bug.
Anyone with a workaround?
Best regards,
Jonas

Hi,
I have the same phone, isync 3.1. I do not manage to sync anything.
Can you help?
Thank you,

Calendar Dates move ahead one day.

We have an exec that is having issues when he schedules meetings. They create the meeting in outlook and send out to all the other exec's, when the exec's get them (iphone/ipad users) the dates are always ahead by one day. Should mention that the exec's assistant is a delagate on his calendar and sometimes makes the appointment for him. We are running Exchange 2010 and Outlook 2007/2010. All the Iphone/Ipads should be update to the new 5.0.1 update. I have tried checking timezone settings, resending invites, removing and restoring exchange profile, sending invite from both 2007/2010 outlook clients, and am about to try enabling calendar repair assistant on the exec exchange mailbox. Anything anyone can think of would really help.

I am in the UK and suspected this was due to time zone issues (why do US companies assume they're alone on this planet?). However, I am running the latest version of iTunes and iPhone software. If an appointment is 'All day', Outlook shows it correctly, but iPhone sometimes syncs to the previous day (but not always).
Seems pretty basic, but all time date settings on both PC and iPhone are correct.

"Fix" for Calendar Events displaying one day early

I posted a question about this a couple of weeks ago, but can't find my original post. No way to search by user name, so I gave up looking for it after 10 or so pages. Because there are several others who have posted about the same problem, I decided to start a new discussion describing the fix that worked for me, with help from Apple Tech Support.
Background of my problem: New iPhone 4S, set up as "new phone" -- calendar events synced via MobileMe without any problems. Or so I thought. Discovered a few days later that any "All Day" event was shown on the day prior to the actual event -- US Holidays and Birthdays in particular. Events with specific start/end times were displaying on the correct day.
Checked these forums and was unable to find a solution, so I made an appointment for the following week with Tech Support to have someone call me. Fred first had me try resetting the phone. Didn't fix it.
Note: Somewhere in our troubleshooting, he had me turn off the Birthday and US Holiday calendars on both the phone and iCal on my computer, then turn them back on and do a sync. This did not correct the event dates. If I remember correctly (I wasn't taking notes), this was before changing any settings in iTunes and didn't fix the problem. However... it *might* have played a part in the final fix, so if the following steps don't fix it for you, try adding in the off/on for the calendars before changing the iTunes sync settings.
What finally worked :
Changing a setting in iTunes to overwrite the Calendar on my iPhone and doing a Sync (bypassing MobileMe entirely). Here's how to do it.
In iTunes, go to the "Info" tab and scroll down to the Advanced section. There are 5 checkboxes there and selecting one or more will overwrite the corresponding items on the iPhone during the next sync only. He had me check Calendar, then perform a Sync.
That worked! For US Holidays, but most of the birthdays were still one day off, except ones I'd entered manually in iCal. All of the misplaced birthdays are published by dates I've entered for contacts in Address Book on my Mac.
I went back to iTunes and checked Birthdays in the Advanced area and performed another sync. That overwrote the Birthday calendar on the phone and now all of my Birthdays and US Holidays are showing on the correct days.
Would have been quicker if I had checked Birthdays at the same time as US Holidays, so when you follow the steps, check both Birthdays and Holidays to save yourself some time.
Hope this helps all of you who are having the same problem I was.

Can you move events from one drive to another easily?

I've just bought an external firewire drive to dedicate to my Sony HD camcorder material.
I've only imported 30 mins or so of stuff onto the Mac's internal drive with iMovie '08, and would like to know if anyone's managed to easily copy 'events' from one drive to another to merge/split content.
Is it just a case of copying event folders from the iMovie Events folder to the external drive, but if so do you have to specify a particular path?
Similarly, can you just move the individual 'Projects' or archive to DVD etc as they will invariably take up lots of space for longer footage? Does the projects file just hold references to the assembled clips, in which case moving events would scupper things as I seem to have several movie files in there already though these may just be things I uploaded to .Mac to test out.
This may all be a bit of trial and error. Hopefully clips are only references unlike the pretty huge but self-contained iMovie 6 HD project packages. This also raises issues about how to easily backup all your 'events'.
AC

Observation:
Just imported 15mins of video from the Sony.
When you click import you are asked which drive to save to.
As well as the Mac's internal drive, all my attached USB drives which are formatted as Mac OS Extended (journaled) appear as targets to save to as well as teh Firewire drive.
I selected the Firewire drive and don't recall an option to create a sub-folder. After import a new top level folder of iMovie Events was created, but no others.
Presumably iMovie Projects/Shared folders only exist on the boot drive.
I'm assuming that this structure will allow you to share movie Events between Macs using external drives.
Again, an assumption but I suspect iMovie scans all available suitable hard drives and checks what content is available in top level iMovie Events folders for non-boot drives as well as this folder in the user's Movies folder.
Rambling observations over for now.
AC

What if you move events from one external drive to another?

I presently have all my iMovie events on one external drive, and I have some projects on my local iMac drive that use clips from the events on the external drive.
What happens to the projects if I use iMovie to move the events from the current external drive to another external drive? If I open one of the projects, will it ask me where to find the event clips, or will I break all my projects?

In theory, if you do it within iMovie, it should work. However, I would recommend that you test a single event first before moving everything.

How do I move Events from one user to the other?

I have two users on my PowerBook G4 and in preparation of moving all to a new MacBook Pro I want to move the pictures of one user to the other user. I've tried copying them and was successful but the Events did not copy, rather all 530 photos copied as one Event. How do I copy the photos and maintain the Events?

iPhoto Library Manager is recommended on here many times every day. I can't recall anyone mentioning a significnt issue with it.

Ical changes event time and day

whenever I add a new event to ical, I enter all the details and click done. It initially posts it where it is supposed to be, and then it switches to whatever the current date is and changes it to "all day." When I click to edit it a second time, it usually works. Why do I have to enter all the info twice to get it to stick?

Dennis, it's not you. iCal has handled time zone changes like this for some time now. As far as I can tell, Apple considers this a feature, not a bug. You see, iCal is trying to be helpful, so if you're normally in the US/Eastern time zone, and schedule something for noon, if you travel to the US/Pacific time zone, it will show the same event at 9:00 am. Technically, the same time is maintained, but unfortunately, 90% of users don't want this adjustment made for them because we don't think about time that way.
The above describes how iCal works with Time Zone Support OFF. Yes, even with Time Zone Support OFF, it auto-adjusts times when you change time zones.
When Time Zone Support is ON, it basically works the same way, except that instead of all your events being associated with one time zone (e.g. US/Eastern), you can assign different a time zone to each individual event (e.g. US/Pacific or US/Mountain). When Time Zone Support is OFF, iCal still assigns time zones to each event, but it's hidden from the user.

Organizing multiple all day events in one day

I'm trying to figure out if I can use iCal to act as my doggy daycare biz calendar.
I tried adding each dog's appointment as an all day event, creating multiple all day events per day, however I can't figure out if there is a way to organize the order of these events. They seem to appear in the order I add them in and I can't change that. Especially when I make some of the entries repeat on a daily basis the order just gets more and more messed up. I've tried doing this with only 5 clients as a test and things are looking horrid so far. I would need to be able to enter about 20 clients, and under multiple calendars.
Would be nice to be able to have this on my computer and on my iphone by using the iCal as opposed to maintaining my current pen and paper system. Any suggestions?

You can't change the order of the event, they do go in based on the order they are entered.

When adding event in iCal, the event becomes full-day by default. How to change?

Also, when de-clicking full-day the events becomes timed 10am-6pm. When changing start time, the end time follows with this 6 hr gap. Not the worst problem to deal with in this world, but...still. Any way of changing this little detail? I.e. to be able to double click the desired day, getting an event that starts with the current time and a 1 hr gap (as with the old version of iCal, that is).
Cheers

Daylight savings moved all my event ahead one hour

When Daylight savings kicked in all of my iCal events were bumped ahead 1 hour, is there a fix for this?

I'm not sure why your appointments would have changed
Because the time for appointments are relative to GMT. DST changed relative to GMT which never changes. You can force the times to always remain the same by turning on Time Zone Override.
You have to remember that when put events into a calendar that the time is relative to GMT and your location. Put an event that is a 5:00P EDT and fly to California the time if the event will change to 2:00P PDT. The event is still occurring at the time you specified as it is still 5:00P on the east coast. If you have an event scheduled in California and you enter the event into your calendar while you are in New York you need to put the time for the event as when the event will occur in New York. Then when you arrive in California the time of the event will adjust.
You can skip all this by turning on Time Zone Override and selecting the time zone you always want to use.
It sort of makes sense once you get used to it. I fly to Europe a lot from the east coast. When I enter my flight information the times are relative to the time in New York when the event will occur in Europe. I have to make some mental calculations to add six hours to the event time. My calendar now shows the true duration of the event, especially when flying.
