ICAL periodically drops events

ICAL periodically drops events that I have booked into it.  Anyone experiencing this problem?

I've got the same problem, except I am synced through mobileme. I was working on my iMac (OSX 10.7. 2GHz Intel) and just watched three events disappear at once from iCal. Two of the events were in my 'personal' calendar. I edited these and set them under my 'work' calendar. Then I created a third event under my 'work' calendar. All three disappeared a second later. I have had this issue at least a dozen times in the past month.
The weird thing: the events have disappeared from my iMac and my MacBook Pro, but they are still there in MobileMe online and on my iPhone.
I tried this and it didn't help:
In ical, click on iCal menu
Preferences
Click on the mobileme account
Click "-" on the bottom (confirm yes)
Then click "+" on the bottom
type in your username/password
account type is mobileme
Brutal.
Then I tried this:
System Preferences > Mail, Contacts & Calendars
Click on mobileme account.
Click "-" and confirm.
Click "+" and then "MobileMe"
Enter username and password.
No bones. Then I tried this:
System Preferences > MobileMe > Sync > Advanced > Reset Sync Data
Replace all sync info on this computer with sync info from MobileMe
Nothing.
Here's what does work. In MobileMe online, I changed the calendar in one of the three events back to personal. Then all three events reappeared in iCal.
I hope that this issue will be resolved soon.

  • Why does my ical keep dropping events.

    For a while now my ical has been changing the title of certain events to "new event".  Now it has started dropping events intermittently.  With my leaky memory I am not able to remember everything I put in.  Can anyone help?
    We run two imacs in our house and one ipad.  Our son, who is away at school also syncs via a MacPro and an ipad.  This is all done via Mobile me.
    Thank you in advance.
    Brad

    Brad,
    Try changing System Preferences...>MobileMe>Sync>"Syncronize with MobileMe" to something other than "Automatically." I would recommend trying "Every Hour."

  • ICal has dropped a monthly event for the previous four months....... why did it disappear? and where is it?  It was the same event but a different day each month.

      I installed this same digitizer in my T|X some weeks ago.  Some discussion of my experience may be found in this Usenet posting and subsequent thread.
      The stock digitizer in my T|X had always had some significant alignment issues (for which PowerDigi was able to compensate very nicely) and sensitivity which was uneven, but which usually required a heavier touch than I liked.
      Eventually, it began to develop a “dead spot” near the upper left.  My T|X was under warranty, so I probably ought to have sent it in to Palm to be repaired, but I wasn't willing to be without it for the required amount of time, and I've heard enough reports of other T|X owners getting unsatisfactory results this way.  I'd heard enough good reports about the PDAPARTS.COm digitizer, that I decided that the only acceptable way to repair my T|X would be to install one of those.
      After however many weeks it has been, I am still very pleased with the results.  It continues to work flawlessly; it is much more sensitive, so it doesn't require nearly so heavy a touch, and I very much like the hard feel that it has, compared to the spongier feel of the stock digitizer.
      My wife's T|X still has its stock digitizer, and it has so far not shown any of the same problems that mine did, or for which the T|X has become notorious, but the feel is noticeably inferior.  She's content with it the way it is, but I think that if I were to ever buy another T|X for myself, I wouldn't wait for the stock digitizer to fail.  The PDAPARTS.COM digitizer is simply superior in every imaginable way; and, in my opinion, a T|X with the PDAPARTS.COM digitizer installed is sufficiently superior to one with the stock digitizer (even if it isn't defective) to be very much worth the expense and trouble of installing it.

  • How can I move an event in ical to another calendar without ical resending the event invite to everyone

    I have 2 microsoft exchange calendars that I use for work. One is provided by my company, the other is provided by a customer that I do contract work for. The customer prefers to send invites to my email address provided to me by them. Which means that the invite appears on the exchange calendar provided to me by the customer.
    That's fine, but I would like for the event to appear on my work calendar so that I can get reminders on my iphone (long story short, the customer does not allow me to connect to their exchange server via my iphone due to security reasons).
    So, I go into iCal, open the event and change the calendar for the event. Unfortunately, that causes iCal to resend the invite to everyone involved in the event. This causes alot of confusion, obviously, as now everyone is wanting to know why I sent an invite for an event that is already scheduled.
    How can I move events to another calendar without iCal sending another invite to everyone?

    If you change anything in a repeating calendar entry it will give you the option of disconnecting it from the series. So may any random change, choose to not change the series.

  • How to use the drop event of the tree control in LabVIEW 8.20?

    Hi,
                I am using the two tree controls in my application to provide a option for the user to drag and drop item from one tree to the other.  I have to validate the user selection. I tried to capture the user drop event  using the event structure. The problem I am facing is, I am not able to drop the item even though i have wired a constant true to the filter(Accepted?) in the event case. I have enable the property(Allow droping) in the right menu of the tree control also.
              While configuring an event case for (drop, drag entered and some thing like this) only I am getting the problem otherwise it is working fine.  
    What do i need to do to caprture the drop event ?
    Is there any way to avoid the item duplication while droping a new item in the tree control ?
    or how can i do this?
    Thanks,
    Pandiarajan R

    Hi Pandiarajan,
    I hope you are doing well today! There is a lengthy discussion on the Tree Control Drag & Drop feature at this forums post including contributions from the developer of the Drag & Drop feature:
    Tree Control Drag & Drop in LabVIEW 8
    By avoiding item duplication, do you mean that you don't want the same item to be in the old tree control or do you not want more than one item in the new tree control?

  • Ical cannot create event in month view

    iCal cannot create event in month view. Is this a bug?
    I've tried double clicking in a day as I always did but nothing.

    Ko be,
    Application UI issues are in many cases, caused by a corrupt plist file.
    Quit iCal, and try removing the com.apple.iCal.plist file from your Macintosh HD/Users/yourusername/Library/Preferences Folder. Since that Library is now hidden, you have to use the Finder>Go Menu>Depress the "Option" key>Library. Drag the .plist file to your desktop, and log out/in or restart and check iCal for functionality.

  • The order of my ical 'all day' events changes when i go into print mode?

    The order of my ical 'all day' events changes when i go into print mode. What can i do to keep the order of events i so painstakingly created?

  • Some Ical all-day events automatically move to Jan 1 2000 (01/01/2000)

    I keep getting ical reminders for events bearing the date of Jan 01 2000. I checked such date in iCal and I noticed that I had over 30 events set for that date. Some are marked as "detached events" from recurring events set in 2006. What is going on??

    I have the exact same problem. I have entered birthdays for people I know starting with the year of their birth and never ending, an all-day event. They now don't show in 2007, but there is a detached event on January 1, 2000. When I delete that event and all subsequent versions of it, the initial event now ends in 2006 or 2007, and I have to set the repeat to end Never again. I fixed all the ones from February that showed up. Now I notice that a huge amount of the other birthdays (all day events) that I have entered are doing it now, and we are talking well over 40 of them. I don't understand why it keeps creating these detached events. I also publish my calendars, if that makes any difference.

  • Why does my ical not keep events in my upcoming days?

  • Periodic dropping of sound using minidisplay port to hdmi

    anyone else get a periodic drop in sound transferred to an external display through a minidisplay port to hdmi converter? if so, is there i a fix to this? there does not seem to be a repeatable time for it to drop, just seems like i loose about 5 seconds of audio at periodic times.

    Hi, last time when i use the mini displayport to hdmi adapter, i even don't know how to make it.. It cost me 3 hours. HDMI Port combines Audio/Video Port, really good. However, it often goes wrong. So, i had to use a *[USB to HDMI Adapter|http://www.espow.com/wholesale-usb-multi-display-adapter-for-computer-a dd-on-a-second-monitor.html]* to display 1080P. And of course, usb can't keep up with Mini DisplayPort, at least at transmission speed. Sound can only come out of the mini jack audio output. Although it's more advanced, HDMI is the main stream. So, *[usb to dvi hdmi adapter|http://www.espow.com/wholesale-usb-multi-display-adapter-for-computer-a dd-on-a-second-monitor.html]* is still important for us, though it will be replaced..

  • Why iCal cancel of event edits issue is still not fixed after over 2 years?

    Why iCal "cancel of event edits" issue is still not fixed after over 2 years?
    I have been in the software engineering industry for over 14 years, but I have never seen a large corporation being so slow at addressing major issues like these.
    What would it take for Apple to start working on this issue?

    Yup. This is fully ridiculous that you can't cancel your updates once you start. I love the tool but this is on pretty significant issue.
    Sometimes I accidentally move a mtg or make some edit while viewing and you can't back you!!
    If you feel the same way, you should post a note here:

  • ADF Drag and drop event inside the single af:treetable

    Hi Experts,
    I have a af:treeTable in my ADF web project and i would like to implement the drag and drop event to the same tree table for supporting my sample test project use case. Currently i am facing some issue to get the source tree node and the destination tree node of the drop and drop event inside my drop listener method. How can i get those object since i need to perform some business operation inside the listener. Please note that i am not using ADF BC4j in my project. The service layer is implemented as EJB and it's being called from the backing bean.
    Looking forward some guide lines to resolve this issue from you experts.
    Thank you.

    It's not a perfect solution, but a work in progress that i'm currently using in my backing bean:
    private RichTree navTree;
    private void exitContainers() {
    boolean success = false;
    while (!success) {
    try {
    navTree.exitContainer();
    } catch (Exception e) {
    success = true;
    private void clearDisclosedRowKeys() {
    if (navTree != null && navTree.getDisclosedRowKeys() != null) {
    RowKeySet rks = navTree.getDisclosedRowKeys();
    Iterator rksIter = rks.iterator();
    while (rksIter.hasNext()) {
    exitContainers();
    List<Integer> rowkey = (List<Integer>) rksIter.next();
    List<Integer> newRowkey = new ArrayList<Integer>();
    for (Integer row : rowkey) {
    if (navTree.isRowAvailable(row)) {
    navTree.setRowIndex(row);
    navTree.enterContainer();
    newRowkey.add(row);
    } else {
    // Row is no longer available
    break;
    if (newRowkey.size() == 0) {
    rks.remove(rowkey);
    } else {
    rowkey.clear();
    rowkey.addAll(newRowkey);
    Whenever you make a 'delete' or 'move' in the tree, call clearDisclosedRowKeys(), it will remove anything that's no longer valid, so your tree won't collapse, and you won't get the error anymore.
    I took out my logging and debug statements, but essentially this just gets all the rows, checks to see if they're valid, and if so creates a new RowKeySet with the valid rows in it.
    Of course make sure you have the setNavTree and getNavTree accessor's created and that they're bound in your JSFF, otherwise navTree will always be null.
    I haven't yet found a way to 'nicely' find out if you're at the top level container, so i'm relying on an Exception to occur to give me that information, if anyone knows a better solution please feel free to share it.

  • Listening to Drag and Drop event from the extension panel

    How is it possible to detect a drop event from a Layer to a text field in a panel developer using the SDK?
    Drag and drop operation between panel elements are not the issues, but drag and drop from Photoshop and the panel might be an issue.
    Is it possible to implement them?
    If yes, could I be redirected to the documentation topic or can someone post some code snippet ?
    Thanks

    What model of camcorder is your video from and what resolution is it?
    What operating system are you using? Have you ensured that you have the latest version of Quicktime, per the program's requirements?
    Do not convert your video. The program will best with video directly from a camcorder, and converting it may will turn it into a format that it may be LESS likely to work well with.

  • Why does ical rearrange my events when i print?!   10.9

    why does ical rearrange my events when i print?!
    I'm on a macbook pro running the latest version of 10.9
    Everything is organized the way I like it, but once I go to print, it rearranges the order of my events!
    How do I fix this?
    Thanks!

    I had the same problem a few weeks ago and called apple support.  The solution is as follows:
    Most apple users have multiple devices using icloud such as an iPdad, iPhone, and other computers.  In my case, I had two computers, two iPads, and one iPhone.   After speaking to apple support, I realized that one of my ipad's setting were set to delete events older then 2 weeks.   In short, if you are expeirienceing problems with ical deleteing events, you better check all your devices.  If just one of them is set wrong in your preferences, you will lose past events.   Even check computers you gave to your cildren or other members of the family.  You will probably find out that the settings on one of these machines is causing your problems.
