ICal Reminders - Natural input and lists

Why doesn't the iCal (OS X 10.7) allow natural input for adding new reminders?
Additionally, why doesn't iCal reminders support multiple lists, a feature which was advertised for iOS5 and iCloud? Will this ultimately be a discrepancy between Lion and iOS5/iCloud?

My suggestion is before you upgrade to Mountain Lion, you should at least consider putting your reminders in iCloud. Here's an article on the subject: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2599
And here's a broader iCloud article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4436
From experience, I can tell you that iCloud transitions easily from Lion to Mountain Lion.

ICal reminders for iPod and notebook battery have broken links

iCal reminders for iPod and notebook battery have broken links and are not functioning. I went to http://www.apple.com/batteries/ipods.html and midway down on the right side is a link to install a ical reminder. That link does not work with my laptop.
It sends me this link "webcal://www.apple.com/images/ipod_icalreminder.ics" but I immediately get an email message stating:
Error subscribing to the calendar
No calendar was found on http://www.apple.com/images/ipod_icalreminder.ics. Please check the URL.
Likewise, the same thing happens for my notebook. Is there another URL or does anyone have connections at apple to reinstate this dead link.

Hope this helpful.

Ical reminders list won't sort on iphone

ICal Reminders won't sort on the actual device it was intended for - the Iphone
I just talked to Apple Express service over this problem. I went to the trouble of transferring my to-do list onto icloud Reminders - where each item asked for a priority ranking and where you are then given options for how to sort all the Reminders you entered - so that it can actually be useable as any Calendar/time management system would be. I chose "by priority" of course, but you can also choose alphabetically, etc. It must be said, at least to Apple, apparently, that the point of doing all this is so that the Reminders are available on your actual device - my iphone. The Reminders all synced immediately to the Iphone. However, the Reminders list is an unsorted jumble on my iphone. Even when I tap out a Reminder on my iphone itself and choose a priority, the item remains at the bottom of the list as the last thing I typed in. Apple Express Support "explains" that the priority ranking and the sorting choices are "not supported" on the device you want to use them on - the iphone. They offered me "an article" that explains this in detail. In other words, engaging with the Reminder function and choosing priorities and choosing sort orders is all just a cruel joke wasting your time. I would have been better off just printing off my Reminders list on paper and circling the high priority items in red ink. Oh - but you can't print it out either.
Unbelieveable. Apple's ICal Reminder function actually and actively leads you to engage with completing details and choices that don't even function, or in other words - aren't "supported" on the Apple device they are stated to be designed for. Is there a device on which this function is actually supported? "Not at this time"
The only way to have your to-do list sorted on the iphone is to assign a calendar date for each one of them and then they only appear on that specific date. You would not be able to view your whole list in anything other than the order you happened to enter the items. No calendar/time management system I know of makes you put a date on every item in a task list - some tasks have a due date, but most don't. And every calendar/time management system allows you to sort your list, or view your list in a sorted order. And print it out also.
Apple advertises this Icloud Ical/Reminders system as a time managment tool and fails to tell us that vital functions don't even work on your iphone.

Hello Christiansted,
Welcome to the Discussions Boards.
In addition to shuffle, you probably have repeat enabled. When you tap the screen or cover art while playing a song, the scrubber bar has the Shuffle button at the right end and the Repeat button at the left end.
If the circular arrows are blue, it will repeat the album or playlist.
If the circular arrows have a small number 1 on them, it will only repeat one song
If they are white, Repeat is off.
The User's Guide explains this on page 63:

Hope that helps,

Reminders on iCloud, and iCal on Mac

I'm currently trying to get to grips with iCloud across all my devices, home Macbook (running Mountain Lion) work MacPro (running Lion) and iPhone (iOS6).
My problem is with the duplication of events in iCal. I use Reminders as my to do list and I use the iCloud version as the interface is a lot more usable than the tiny Reminders on iCal. So I create a new Reminder on iCloud, it appears in iCal's Reminders pane, and I'll use this to populate my working week in iCal. Reminders on iCloud pushes to iCal Reminders on the MacPro then I can plan my working weekly schedule, and all this gets pushed to my phone. My only problem is when I drag Reminders from iCal's pane on to the calendar the events keep duplicating. Anyone any idea what I'm doing wrong. I use to work like this in Snow Leopard with no problems

ical on your phone does not go away. What ever events you put in your icloud.com account will sycn with your iphone and vise versa.it woks best when you add other Apple products that way all your calanderevents will stay in sync reguardless the devise you enter them on. hope this answered your question.

Just downloaded iOS 5 and can't get "reminders" to input new reminder

Just downloaded iOS 5 and can't get "reminders" to input new reminders

I was having the same problem. I followed the directions from the link you listed, but the library file in the Previous folder was dated the same as the date of my upgrade. There are no other files in that folder. I tried anyway but it did not work. Any suggestions short of individually adding them?

Is it possible to enter events into a specific iCal calendar, then print a list of those events with the name and date on a single sheet?

Is it possible to enter events into a specific iCal calendar, then print a list of those events with the name and date on a single sheet? I don't need the calendar grid. I just want a list of events on a particular calendar, and their dates. Is that possible?

Not easily. Two possibilities:
1) If all the events have some common feature (eg you have included "XXX" in all the summaries), search for that feature then select and copy the found items at the bottom of the window. You can then paste them into TextEdit or a spreadsheet for printing
2) You could write an Applescript to locate the events and write them into a text file for printing.
The first one will probably give you what you want.

ICal reminders not on iPhone

I have my iPhone sync with iCal through iTunes on my MacBook.
For my very first event, I got a reminder notification on my iPhone, however, ever since then, they don't show up on my iPhone anymore. Whenever I turn my MacBook on though, there is a little pop up reminder for all of the events that have happened that had reminders since I last went on my MacBook. I don't use iCloud or anything, just sync via USB cable. Also, the same thing happens whether I make the event on my iPhone, or if I make it on iCal and then sync my iPhone...
What is going on? Help would be greatly appreciated

You can see them in ICal on the right column but just like a List not as well as in Iphone or I Cal
So question,,,,,,How can I see my reminders in my Mac in the same way I see them in my iPad and iPhone, I is easier to work with reminders in Ipad and Iphone rather to see them like a list on ICal?

ICal reminders bug

I am posting this in case it is of help to anyone or in case anyone knows of a fix. I have discovered what I think is a bug in iCal on Lion which prevents reminders showing on their due date. Steps to re-create are as follows:
1. Create a reminder (not an event) with a due date of today.
2. Go to iCal Preferences / Advanced and select 'Hide reminders that are due after dates visible in the calendar'.
3. In iCal select 'Day' view.
4. Select 'Today' to show today's appointments and reminders.
Notice the reminder you created is not visible.
5. Select tomorrow's date from the date picker or the advance arrow.
Notice the reminder with a due date of today is now visible.
This does not happen if the calendar application is used on iCloud itself so I am deducing that this is a bug in iCal on Lion.
Has any anyone come across this who has a fix?

andylel,
Yes, I've notice exactly the same behavior.
Addionally, if you have an iOS 5 device and an iCloud account, the item in the Reminders app will be listed as an "All Day" task. In that item's list the item will have no time associated with it. It's definitely a bug in iCal. The bug also affects third part apps that sync with iCloud, such as BusyCal and BusyTodo.

I am having much trouble with the new reminders in IOS7 and how it interacts with Outlook Exchange. Many features lost in the new version.

When I downloaded IOS7, I found that the reminders/task app and how it interacts with Outlook Exchange is much more difficult to use. Some of the issues that I am having are...
1. Trying to edit my task on my phone is not possible, if the notes are lengthy. When you click on the text to edit data near the top, it will scroll to the bottom and not allow you to edit the text because you cant see it.
2. Now all of my task are in one long list. I can not move from day to day like we could in previous version IOS6
3. When I do edit a short task reminder and click done, it crashes and completly goes away. It does save the edit though
4. You can only add task at the bottom of each days reminders. This is very inconvient and much more difficult than IOS6
5. There is a major delay or latency when interacting inside of reminders in this version. Much more than IOS6. It is very unstable and quirky.
I have never seen Apple take a step back with a product until now. I am a huge Apple fan and always will be, so I am hoping they make enhancements to fix these issue. It is a big time prodcutivity killer.
Thanks for any and all help you can give.

Some power supplies or designed so that if there is a short or overload they shut them selfs off and some will not turn back on. Some have a relay that will click back on and work, some you have to cycle the power switch. Those that won't come back on will have to be replaced. I'm not saying that yours is that type as I have no way of telling. But if you have a friend who will loan you a good power supply you might try it. As someone else said just turning off the power will not darn all the power from some motherboards. To test this turn off your power supply than turn on the computer with the start botton. Mine will flash the lights and fans will start to spin than die. So every time you turn off computer to work on it. After turning off PSU hit the start botton to drian any power left in it before working on it. Also do this after unplugging it just to make sure.

SSIS: How to use one Variable as Input and Output Parameter in an Execute SQL Task

Hello,
i need your help,I'm working on this issue since yesterday and have no idea how to deal with it.
As I already said in the tilte i want to start a stored procedure via a Execute SQL Task which has around 15 prameters. 10 of these should be used as input AND output value.
As an example:
i have three Variable:
var1    int        2
var2    int     100
var3    int     200
the stroed procedure:
   sp_test
     @var1 int
      @var2 int output
      @var3 int output
   AS
   BEGIN
        SET @var2 = @var2 * @var1
        SET @var3 = @var3 + @var1
   END
So in the Execute SQL Task i call the Stored Procedure as follwos:
    Exec sp_test  @var1 = ?, @var2 = ? output, @var3 = ? output
(I use an OLE DB Connection)
The parameter mapping is as follows:
User::Var1        input                   numeric              0                 -1
User::Var2        input/output         numeric              1                 -1
User::Var3        input/output         numeric              2                 -1
Now my problem. If i set  Var2 and Var3 as Input parameter the values are still the same after running the package. If i set them to a output value the are both Null because the procedure doesnt get any values.
I already tried to list them a second time - like
    User::Var2        input                  numeric              1                 -1
    User::Var2        output                 numeric              1                 -1
or i use a new variable
    User::Var2                  input                  numeric              1                 -1
    User::Var2Return        output                 numeric              1                 -1
but i alwas get the error
"Multiple-step OLE DB operation generated errors. Check each OLE DB status value, if available. No work was done."
Has anybody an idea how I can solve this problem?
Thanks a lot.
Kind Regards,
Alice

Hi Alain,
thx for your answer.
I have around 15 procedures called one after the other to calculated and modify my values. Each procedure is responsible for an other but overlapping set of variables. So i thought it would be a good idea to call them one after the other with the needed variables via a execute sql task.
So if i use a result set, how i get my stored procedure to return 10 values? I would have to use a Function instead of a procedure, wouldn't i?
As if i have 15 procedures this would be a lot of work.
But thanks a lot for the idea. I think an other idea would be to create one function which calls all stored procedures and returns all the calculated values as a result set, wouldn't it?.
Kind Regards.
Alice

Audio Line-in input and BT Headset output not working

Hi,
I'm trying to run the Line-in into my MBPro and route the output to my Logitech H800 BT Headphones at the same time (a pass through), but can't get it to work.
I have tried to run the line-in to the Internal Speakers and can not get this to work either.
Steps to taken:
1. Go to the Sound window by selecting the Sound icon from System Preferences.
Next, I route the Line-in by:
2. Selecting the Input button from Sound Effects, Output, Input buttons.
3. Select "Line In" from the Select a device for sound input list.
4. Select "Sound Input" from the Use audio port for drop down list
5. you should see activity on the Input Level.
6. Next, select the Ouput button from Sound Effects, Output, Input buttons.
7. Select "H800 Logitech Headset Stereo (or Internal Speakers) from the Select a device for sound output list.
8. Verify that "Sound Input" from the Use audio port for drop down list is still selected.
9. Also, verify that the Mute checkbox is not selected in either the Input or Output window.
10. NO SOUND :-(
11. If I pull up a radio station in a webbrowser, I can listen to it without issue. So, I think audio out is set correctly.
12. If I install Audacity: 1) It shows the audio input and output to be set as above (Built-in Input/H800 Headset). 2) If I record and then playback, it records the audio going in the Line-In and plays back accross the H800. 3) Also looked for a Monitor function in Audacity but could find one to test simulataneous I/O.
Any idaes welcome ?

ahh sry, thats how the line in works on my Mac Pro, I guess the Macbook is different. This is a program I use in conjunction with another called 'soundflower' to route my audio to all the places it needs to go:
http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/11333/linein
If you need to run multiple instances, you can open up terminal and type
open -n /Applications/[PUT PROGRAM NAME HERE].app/
It will open up another instance every time you run that script.

FINALLY INPUTTING and OUTPUTTING Annotations!

Ok, before everyone thinks that this is a very bad solution, I have to tell that I`m no programmer and my knowledge of PostgreSQL, Ruby or any other language is very poor.
With useful help from Jamie Hodge, fbm and Nicholas Stokes (mainly)
I could manage to write a command for inputting and outputting from Final Cut Server Annotations.
So lets go to the fun part:
INPUTTING:
1- Create a Response called "Annotations IN" (or whatever you want):
a - Reponse Action: "Run an external script or command"
b - Run Script > *Commnad Path: /Library/Application Support/Final Cut Server/Final Cut Server.bundle/Contents/Resources/sbin/fcsvr_run
Command Parameters: psql px pxdb -c "COPY pxtcmdvalue FROM '/FCSRV/annotation-in.txt' USING DELIMITERS '|';"
2 - Create a poll Watcher with name: "Watch for Annotations IN"
a - Enable: true
b - Monitor Address: Chooses a Device (create a new one or use a tmp one) and path to where you`ll going to put a txt file with the annotations.
c - Response List: Choose the Response you created "Annotations IN" in my case.
d - Event Type Filter: Created, Modified
e - Poll Watcher > Listing Frequency: 2 (or any number of seconds you feel like it).
Listing multiple: 2
Wildcard include Filter: *.txt (or any custom extensions you want)
3 - Create a txt file and use this as a template:
{ASSET_ENTITYID}|1527|{TCIN}/(30000,1001)|{TCOUT}/(30000,1001)|{Annotation}|{USE RID}|{DATE}
Where:
{ASSET_ENTITYID} = Is the entityid of your asset. You can find what number it is by issuing:
/Library/Application\ Support/Final\ Cut\ Server/Final\ Cut\ Server.bundle/Contents/Resources/sbin/fcsvr_run psql px pxdb -c "SELECT pxmdvalue.entityid, pxmdvalue.value AS asset_name FROM pxmdvalue INNER JOIN pxentity ON pxentity.entityid = pxmdvalue.entityid WHERE pxmdvalue.fieldid='1543' AND pxentity.address LIKE '/asset/%';"
This will output ALL your assets, so if you know the name or want to parse the name you can use:
/Library/Application\ Support/Final\ Cut\ Server/Final\ Cut\ Server.bundle/Contents/Resources/sbin/fcsvr_run psql px pxdb -c "SELECT pxmdvalue.entityid, pxmdvalue.value AS asset_name FROM pxmdvalue INNER JOIN pxentity ON pxentity.entityid = pxmdvalue.entityid WHERE pxmdvalue.fieldid='1543' AND pxmdvalue.value='ASSETNAME' AND pxentity.address LIKE '/asset/%';"
Where in ASSETNAME you`ll have to put your Asset Name without extension.
{TCIN} and {TCOUT} is, of course, the TC`s points. In the form of: HH:MM:SS;FF
{Annotation} is the commentary.
{USERID} (in my case was 1)
{DATE}: This one is tricky. My example is 2009-03-15 19:31:15.839795-03
So is in the form YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS.????? I really don`t know the rest. Could be milliseconds?
Of course one can write a script to translate everything from a txt file like:
ASSETNAME | TCIN | TCOUT | ANNOTATIONS | USER
But as I`ve said I`m no programmer
Ok.. now the time for the OUTPUT:
The command-line is:
/Library/Application\ Support/Final\ Cut\ Server/Final\ Cut\ Server.bundle/Contents/Resources/sbin/fcsvr_run psql px pxdb -c "SELECT pxmdvalue.value AS Asset_NAME, pxtcmdvalue.value, pxtcmdvalue.begintc, pxtcmdvalue.endtc FROM pxmdvalue INNER JOIN pxtcmdvalue ON pxmdvalue.entityid = pxtcmdvalue.entityid WHERE pxmdvalue.value='ASSETNAME';"
Where ASSETNAME is the Asset name without the extension.
Or issuing the following to OUTPUT ANNOTATIONS from ALL assets:
/Library/Application\ Support/Final\ Cut\ Server/Final\ Cut\ Server.bundle/Contents/Resources/sbin/fcsvr_run psql px pxdb -c "select * from pxtcmdvalue;"
Adding "> /PATHTO_WHERE_IN_WANT/ANNOTATIONSOUTPUT.TXT" at the end will put all output into a txt file.
It`s possible (in theory) to:
1- Create a boolean md field in FCSRV called "EXPORT Annotations" (don`t choose lookup)
2- add or create a md group called "Export Annotations" and add the above md field to it (don`t choose lookup)
3- Add "Export Annotations" md field to Asset Filter md group
4- Make a Response for Running external command. Command path: /Library/Application Support/Final Cut Server/Final Cut Server.bundle/Contents/Resources/sbin/fcsvr_run
Command Parameters: psql px pxdb -c 'SELECT pxmdvalue.value AS Asset_NAME, pxtcmdvalue.value, pxtcmdvalue.begintc, pxtcmdvalue.endtc FROM pxmdvalue INNER JOIN pxtcmdvalue ON pxmdvalue.entityid = pxtcmdvalue.entityid WHERE pxmdvalue.value=[FileName];' > ~/Desktop/ann-out.txt
(I`m having problem with this, it doesn`t work).
5- Make a Subscription that if Export Annotations modified = true, trigger if changed and trigger the Response above.
6- Add exporting annotations md group to Media md set.
In theory it`s possible to modify the FinalCutServerIntegrationSample get and input annotations instead of adding another "comment" field to md group list.
Few!
Ok so please help beautify this out!
This will be very useful for a lot of people.... We know that it`s only a matter of time to FCSVR have this function built-in... but this "time" could be years.
So let`s start ourselves!
Thank you very much!!
Regards!

Input and output varaiables are not shown

Hi,
I am using BICS connectivity to connect to a BeX query from Xcelsius. I am able to logon to SAP use datamanager conn and also able to select a query. But after that the query input and output variables are not shown. Instead all those fields are greyed out. I am not sure whether am missing any configuration. Please let me know if anyone have workaround for this issue.
Thanks,

That is interesting. The first (AES) is producing a 128-bit key, the second (aes) is producing a 256-bit key.
Producing a 256-bit key should not be possibe without the JCE/JCA Unlimted strength policy files installed, I have those files, installed, do you?
If someone who doesn;t have ththe policy files installed tried it, what do they get?
I would suspect that the case-sensitive nature of the underlying JVM is causing it to choose a different Crypto Provider when you use aes than when you use AES. The JVM that ColdFusion ships with (and the standard JVM) have severa crypto providers to choose from, plus ColdFusion Enterprise and Developer addition also include the BSafe Crypto-J provider), I think there are 10-11 total.
I would log a bug for this.
FYI, you can control this by using the optional keylength argument in generateSecretKey()
These two statements will produde keys with the same length.
#arrayLen(binarydecode(generateSecretKey("AES", 128),"base64") )#
#arrayLen(binarydecode(generateSecretKey("aes", 128),"base64") )#
