ICal v3 todo Alarms gone (no option to set alam in todo anymore)

Hi.
I've been using iCal for over a year now and all of a sudden, I cannot set an alarm for any To-Do item. Frustrating
My To-Dos, naturally, often have deadlines that alarms are very useful for. Now, if I need an alarm, I have to move my To-Do entry to a callendar day, which makes it hard to find and basicaly negates the purpose of having a To-Do list in the first place.
Was this intentional by Apple, or has something gone wrong that can be fixed?
Thanks for any help/advice.

Hi.
Um... Wow. I can't believe I missed that. Surely I've been doing it that way for months and months and, somehow, suddenly, I couldn't see it for looking. :/ I won't bother trying to claim that "Due Date" was missing and has come back... though... nah. Can't be sigh
Thanks (for reminding me just how much 'm losing it! :P)

    hello, there's a general regression in firefox 27 that won't allow files to download directly into a root drive. please try to create a subfolder (like ''E:\Downloads'') and set this as default location for downloads...

  • I want tabs to open at google.ca as they did before I got rid of the bing bar. Have gone to options and set it there but I still get the thumbnail page. Thx.

    Instead I get the thumbnail page which Id rather not have. I x'ed out all the thumbnails so only the google.ca one is there but it's not a full page, just a thumbnail. I realize I can enlarge it. This is not a huge problem but I would like it solved.

    Just to lay out the recipe all in one place:
    (1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
    (2) In the search box above the list, type or paste '''newtab''' and pause while the list is filtered
    (3) Double-click the '''browser.newtab.url''' preference and enter your preferred page:
    * ''Page thumbnails (default)'' => about:newtab
    * ''Blank tab'' => about:blank
    * ''Built-in Firefox home page'' => about:home
    * ''Any other page'' => full URL to the page
    Press Ctrl+t to open a new tab and verify that it worked. Fixed?
    Note: as per cor-el's suggestion, open the Google page you want and copy the "final" URL from the address bar to paste in when you update this setting. If you use a shortened version, then Google will send Firefox a redirect every time, which is a waste.

  • Where is the option to set a ToDo item to repeat? ...

    I imported some calendar entries from MS Outlook onto my 5800, of which most were set to repeat every month.
    Those items successfully repeat on the device but on creating a new ToDo item using the device's calendar app, there is no option to set repeating occurrence!
    Where is the option to set a ToDo item to repeat?
    Can anyone please help me with this as I do not want to have to keep re-creating items and / or using Outlook to create them then transfer etc.
    'Ta very much.

    Just found an alternative that I thought was possible but wanted to confirm.
    Set yourself up a Nokia account on www.ovi.com and set up an OVI Sync account. Sync the phone to the online account to start with.
    Then, using the online interface to OVI Sync you can create an event that can be repeated weekly among other things. Re-sync the phone and that repeating event will be entered into your calendar.

  • Ical e-mail alarm and sending e-mails to self  will not sync with Gmail

    Hello, my mac mail is not able to fetch a e-mail alarm sent from ical.
    when the alarm goes off it is sent to my Gmail account and I am able
    to view it in my browser but not in my Mail program on my Mac. Has
    anybody else had or have this problem and is there anything to
    rectify? it. I have spoken to Apple support and they seem to think it
    is a Gmail issue. I am not able to fetch emails sent to myself in my
    Mail program on my Mac either, I am only able to view on my browser.
    All other emails are fetched properly. Perplexing!

    I've had several clients tell me that they can't send from themselves - to themselves on a gmail account. They can see the messages in the gmail webmail interface, but the messages won't download to the mail program.
    I suspect it's part of gmail's spam controls. It's a common spammer technique to send messages with the From: address the same as the To: address.
    Another thought, hasn't gmail touted the user's ability to use the 5 or 7 GB of online storage? Maybe you use it by sending yourself an email and wouldn't want it downloaded back to your mail program?
    Sorry for the lack of perfect information about gmail, I only set up an account so that I could help clients with it, not to use it for myself

  • Syncing iCal calendar todos with Mobile Me todos

    Hi
    I am using 10.5.8.
    Omnifocus will only sync my todos with the iCal calendar on my Mac.
    I use and sync events with Mobile Me.
    Is there anyway I can sync the iCal Calendar todos on my local mac with one of my MobleMe calendars?
    Thanks
    Gus

    This will be no consolation. But I'm having the same problem. For me the issue began when I signed up for the MobileMe iCal beta (at least I think that's the culprit).
    I was no longer able to sync iCal to the MobileMe server after the update (and I kept getting an error message in iCal). I downgraded back to the "regular" MobileMe iCal and got the iCal on my iMac up and running again.
    However, now I don't seem to be able to sync my iPhone with Mobile me. I've turned it off from settings and turned it back on, but it's not working.

    Ibán,
    Apply the Picture Frame effect in Pages V4, then paste into Pages V5.
    It's inconvenient, but then many things are in Pages V5.

  • ICal feature requests  1)reminder pref option for default to DAYS ahead (+)

    Hi, Appleniks,
    My preferred calendar event warning is one day ahead. This isn't available as a default option. Therefore I have to set it custom every single time I add an event. Would appreciate it if I could set this as a default in the prefs.
    Would also appreciate the option to set more than one reminder. (I could swear this used to be available.)
    TIA

    Greetings,
    Not bad ideas.
    Submit feedback to Apple to let them know: http://www.apple.com/feedback/ical.html

    Do Not Disturb and Notifications
    Push notifications appear in Notification Center and alert you to new information, even when the
    associated app isn’t running. Notifications vary by app, but may include text or sound alerts, and
    a numbered badge on the app icon on the Home screen.
    Turn off all notifications: Go to Settings and turn on Do Not Disturb. When it’s turned on and
    iPhone is locked, all notifications and calls are silenced, but alarms will still sound. You can set the
    following options in Settings > Notifications > Do Not Disturb:
    • Automatically turn on Do Not Disturb: Set the starting and ending hours for when you don’t
    want to be disturbed. iPhone turns on Do Not Disturb during these hours each day.
    • Allow some phone calls during Do Not Disturb: When Do Not Disturb is on, calls are silently sent
    to voice mail. To allow some callers to ring through, tap Allow Calls From. You can allow calls
    from your Favorites list or other Contacts groups you define. For information about Favorites,
    see Chapter 25, Contacts, on page 100.
    • Allow persistant callers to ring through: Turn on Repeated Calls. If the same caller (based on
    their Caller ID) calls you twice within three minutes, iPhone will ring.
    Turn an app’s notifications on or off: Go to Settings > Notifications. Tap an item in the list, then
    turn notifications on or off for that item. Apps that have notifications turned off appear in the Not in Notification centre

  • How can I sync my iPad to a computer after syncing it to the iCloud? I have the option of setting it up new, or restoring to a sync from many months ago. I dont want to lose any apps but I would like to back up on computer. No auto sync like other devices

    How can I sync my iPad to a computer after syncing it to the iCloud? I have the option of setting it up new, or restoring to a sync from many months ago. I dont want to lose any apps but I would like to back up on computer. No auto sync like other devices.

    Plug it into your computer. Tell it to sync with "this computer" instead of iCloud. You shouldn't have to remove any apps. Otherwise, you can save the app data by using i-FunBox ( http://www.i-funbox.com/ ) just go to the "devices" tab and select 'user applications' and select all of your apps and tell iFunBox to "copy to pc" you're done! You have them all backed up.

  • Since I upgraded to the new iOS 7 operating system for my iphone, I can no longer adjust the volume on my alarm. No matter what setting the volume of my phone is my alarm is always full blast. Since I hate being startled awake, what can I do?

    Go to your home screen, and then press the volume down or up button. It should say Ringer instead of volume. If it doesn't do that, try going into the clock app and try it there.
