ICal synch wants to delete old entries

Recently when I use BB Desktop to synch with my new MacBook, it wants to add 2, modify 482 and delete 1053. The first 2 are not a problem but I do not want to delete old iCal entries.
I've tried adjusting to synch only Future or synch between -999 and +999 days to no avail.
What work around can I use to get back to synching?
Thanks

This helped me for this problem...
On your BlackBerry, go to the Calendar, then press the Menu button, and select Options. Do you have a settings that says "Keep Appointments" set for a specified time.
If yes, you will need to change that to forever.
Once I changed that, I did an overwrite sync of the BlackBerry (I use Missing Sync). Then normal syncing worked fine without deleting old events.

  • DTM deleted old entries in iCal!

    I keep my old entries in iCal as sort of a diary.  A short while ago I started looking for something from a couple of years ago (on my computer), and discovered that everything that was over a year old was gone!.  I was not aware of the archive feature of iCal prior to that time, so just figured I could restore everything from a backup.  No go -- don't know how long the data had been missing.  So, I manually recreated what I could from my computer at work, and archived it for safekeeping.  Last evening I synced my BB Curve again, and now the data from older than 10 years is gone (my data went back to 1993).  I had purposefully done an archive just before syncing for that very reason, so I was able to restore.
    Does anybody know why this is happening?  And what to do to correct it?  I know I can archive each time I want to sync, but that seems a hassle.  Don't really care if the info is on my BB or not, but most assuredly do NOT want it deleted from my iCal.  The data is very important to me.

    in iCal preferences>advanced tab...you can select to delete (or not) events and items....see if any of these are checked.

  • In contacts section for the groups section i want to delete old groups i have on the phone and then add a new group for easy access for work contacts for calling. rather then searching each individual contact when needed. is this possible?

    i currently have about 6 different groups listed on the iphone in my contact list section and i want to delete the old ones and create a new group for work puposes!
    i dont want any apps all i want is something similar to my favourites list but in a group so i can just go into that work group and scroll to the person i need to call and this way seperating my personal and work contacts.
    because i do alot of calls from my car i dont want to have to search my contact lists to find the right person i just want them all in a simple folder.
    is this possible because if i already have groups on my iphone i should be able to delete the old ones and create a new one?

    Deleting groups on the phone and creating new ones is not supported with iOS4, you'll have to do that on your computer and sync again.
    Let's see if they changed that in iOS5 when it is released.

  • Delete old entries

    Hi Experts,
    One of my clients system is perfoming very slow because of lots of entries. Whether i can delete the old entries ? i.e entries of 2000,2001 etc. ?
    Is there is any impact if  i delete these entries?
    What is the T-code for deleting the old entries?
    What is the use of T-code  f.63 ?
    Regards,
    Anish

    Hi,
    You are not supposed to delete transaction data, this is serious violation of financial regulations. However, there is a mechanism of archiving in SAP. You can read more about it here:
    http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_03/helpdata/EN/8d/3e5163462a11d189000000e8323d3a/frameset.htm
    Anyway, low performance does not always mean that you have a lot of data. You should analyse your system in terms of hardware and read some notes about low performance of specific transactions. Sometimes, a professional analysis of system performance is required. You can address this request to your BASIS team.

  • Calendar deletes old entries

    Even though under general calendar options I checked "forever" for Keep Appointments, it has started to delete old ones. What to do?

    Hi and welcome to the forums!
    Please go to options and then to status. Check the file free number
    is it significantly below 15728640 bytes?
    Besides calendar appointments are you losing text, emails, and call logs
    sooner than usual?
    If so you are experiencing memory problems.
    See the attached link for the fix!

  • How can I delete old entries on my calendars

    I use iCal for my business, and I did make one calendar for each person on the company, so I do have 18 calendar with each appointment, about 6 to 8 per day. I been using ical for a 2 years now and I need to delete all the old appointments, at last 6 months older (is getting to heavy for a lamp imac).
    If I can do a buckup and them delete will be much better.

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    All backups made on iCloud overwrite the old one, so you have only the latest backup with your most recent files. If you have a backup of an old device, open Settings > iCloud > Storage and Backup > Manage Storage, select the backup and delete that backup

  • How do I safely delete old entries in Time Machine?

    Hi All,
    I recently did my first ever Time Machine back up prior to upgrading my OSX to 10.8 from 10.6.8.
    A few weeks on, all is working fine with no conflicts.
    Yesterday I upgraded Aperture from 2 to 3.  I know that Time Machine doesn't copy the entire library file on each back-up, just the changes, but with the recent upgrade it has changed a fair bit and used quite a chunk of disk space (200GB).
    Once I've been in to the new Aperture 3 upgrade and am satisfied that its running fine with no conflicts, I'll have no need for the Aperture 2 library back-up, as I no longer use the application.
    My question is:  Can I delete all older Time Machine entries until the first back up after the upgrade to Aperture 3.  Will this still preserve all data on the library?  There's not that many as I back up manually not hourly.  Sorry if that's a basic question, I'm completely new to TM and not sure precisely how it works with upgrades from one Aperture library to another.
    Thanks for your help.
    Richard

    You just described one reason it's a bad idea to use a single volume for Time Machine backups and other content. Time Machine expects to use the entire volume. It will respect the other content and not erase it, but you will eventually be left with zero free space.
    Edit to add: When that occurs, Time Machine will erase older backups to make room for newer ones, but the problem is that once there is no free space remaining on the backup volume you cannot copy anything else to it. This certainly precludes using Time Machine to back up whatever non-Time Machine content exists on that volume. You would have to erase the source content first, after which Time Machine will eventually erase its backup as well.
    You cannot limit the backup size without limiting the volume size. To do that you must partition it. That is not ideal either, since loss of the drive means losing both partitions.

  • New iPod mini, but I don't want to delete old songs

    So I got a new iPod because my battery had worn out and I used my warrenty. However, I heard rumors that if I register my new iPod that I will lose all of my music in iTunes. When I click on iPod Updater, it shows two buttons, "Update" and "Restore". However, "Update" is faded out and does not give me the option to click on it. I am afraid that if I click "Restore" I will lose all of my music in iTunes. Please help.

    I'M NOT SURE, but I think if you wanted (just in case) if you wanted your music to be saved to your 'My Documents' folder, on you can. Pull up iTunes (that you used for your old ipod). Go to Advanced on your tool bar. Then go to 'Consolidate Library'. I THINK that might do it. Again, I'm not sure that's what did it for me.

  • HT3529 New 7.0 version update changes the way text messages are presented.  In the new version, I cannot figure out how to delete individual texts.  I can delete entire strings of messages, but I want to delete old texts, but keep the recent texts

    The new version of the software for my iPhone 4 changed the way text messages are managed. 
    I can no longer delete individual texts from a text "conversation."  I also have not figured out how to forward texts, which I was able to do in the prior version.
    Anyone know a way to edit out individual messages without losing the entire string?
    Anyone know if there is a way to forward messages?

    When you have the conversation open, if you tap & hold on a message bubble, you should get a new menu pop-up.  It should have 2 options "Copy" and "More..."  If you select the "More..." option it will then let you select one or more message bubbles and delete the selected ones by hitting the trach can icon in the lower left corner.  As for forwarding, you probably just select the "Copy" option, then paste the contents into a new message...

  • How do I delete a prior month(s) or entire year(s) in iCal on my iMac (using version 4.0.4 (1395.7)?  Want to delete all months in 2009

    I checked what was previous asked in deleting months from iCal; however, that question pertained to removing events from a month and not necessarily deleting the entire month.  I have three years of calendars (January - December x three) in my iCal and want to delete all months for 2009 and 2010; however, I can't seem to find a way to delete.  I checked preferences/advanced under iCal but no mention of deleting previous months/years.

    Greetings Judith,
    Before making any attempts at deleting calendar data, backup what you have just in case:
    Click on each calendar on the left hand side of iCal one at a time highlighting it's name and then going to File Export > Export and saving the resulting calendar file to a logical location for safekeeping.
    iCal has an automated function located in iCal > Preferences > Advanced > Delete events "X" days after they have passed.  By typing in a value for days you can tell iCal to delete all events before that time frame.
    Example:
    Today is 4-16-2012.
    If I wanted to delete all events prior to 1 year ago (4-16-2011) I would type in "365" for the number of days.
    Once you type in the number of days you want kept in iCal, close the preferences and then quit iCal.
    Re-open iCal and check to see if the events are gone.  If not you may want to leave it open for several minutes and then quit again.
    Once the events are removed go back to  iCal > Preferences > Advanced > Delete events "X" days after they have passed and make sure the check mark is removed to prevent future deletion.
    Hope that helps.

  • Solman 7.1; delete old database from SMSY

    We have done upgrade to solman 7.1 . So we use SMSY with datasource LMDB now.
    In former times the database host of some SAP-systems  were changed.
    So we have some old obsolete entries like database <SID>_0001 in SMSY (sent by SLD BEFORE the solman upgrade.
    If we try to delete old entry in SMSY-> databases by right mouse click , system opens the LMDB maintenance, because maintenance should normally done in LMDB.  There is no database <SID>_0001 in LMDB and the SLDs  - only the correct  System <SID> with database <SID> with correct server data.
    How can we properly delete the obsolete entries in SMSY ?
    In the LM Db Setup Guide I only found some troubleshooting for sync problems between LMDB and SLD, but not how to delete manually in SMSY in SM 7.1. Any ideas ?

    I have solved the problem.
    The obsolete database was only in SMSY and NOT in SLD + LMDB - so no deletion possible in SMSY and LMDB (as suggested by community)
    The obsolete database <SID>_0001 was not used by any SAP system in SMSY.
    I used the workaround of creating a dummy database system with the obsolete name in LMDB for later deletion  and sync to SMSY.
    steps:
    I create a new technical system  in LMDB: select type " Database system" instead of default "ABAP ....."
    Identification of technical system:
    databasename: <SID>_0001
    databasehost:  you can use the correct server if you like
    databasetype: DB2, oracle, etc...
    Next screen (identification technical system):
    extended systemname: SID>_0001 (change it to the value you want to delete in SMSY.  My solman suggested <SID>00001)
    Save
    Optional: In next screen you can adapt the description of the system, which will be displayed in SMSY very quickly!
    Then delete system from LMDB => deletion of database will be synchonized into SMSY.
    Work done.

  • How to delete duplicate entries in match code

    I want to delete duplicate entries in match code.

    If you go down the search exit route, using function module F4_IF_SHLP_EXAMPLE or function module F4_IF_SHLP_EXIT as a template you want it where callcontrol-step = 'DISP'.  You would sort the table: SORT RECORD_TAB BY STRING and then delete adjacent duplicates. If this does not wok because of the fields you have in your search help, you will need to select the data into another internal table and match the relevant entries from your internal table  with the relevant position in field STRING of RECORD_TAB.  The positions in STRING will be as per the order of the parameters  you have defined in the search help.
    Hope this helps.
