ICloud Calendar colours

iCloud Calendar colours has finally fixed !!!!

Eureka!! Discovered a solution for this systemic problem (albeit temporary for some users). Can't take the credit for the fix, though. All kudos goes to Sam Yu.
He wrote;
"Found a workaround for this issue. I don't think it has to do with the fact that the calendar is named "work". Here's what I did:
exported existing "work" calendar
create a new calendar with a new name, "work 2"
imported calendar to the new calendar
change calendar to the desire color
deleted old "work" calendar
named calendar back to "work"
I closed the calendar app and opened it again. The color stayed to my desired setting. Hope this helps!"

  • Shared iCloud calendar colour keeps changing

    I haven't had this problem for a while, but this week my the calendar my wife shares with me in iCloud keeps changing colour.
    I am running iOS 6.1.3 and we have had the shared calendars set up for ages. Now no matter what i do her calander displays as blue, even though it is yellow when i log into iCloud on the web.
    When I change to colour to purple on either my iPad or iPhone the colour changes on the web iCloud calendar but displays as blue in iCal on my mac, and in iCal on both my iPad and iPhone.
    I haven't added any other new calendars or accounts recently, so I have no idea why this is happening (again)
    Anyone else having this problem and/or found a solution?

    I started having this problem in late June. Both the names and colours for some of my shared calendars suddenly changed to the names and colours used by the calendar owners (instead of the names and colours that I have assigned to them). This had worked just fine ever since shared calendars became available until June, 2013. My Mom and my sister are having the same problem.
    I reported the problem to Apple support on July 3, and they ran through some troubleshooting with me. The names and colours are correct on the calendar app in Mountain Lion as well as iCloud.com through Safari on my Mac. However, when the calendar syncs to any iOS device, the namea and colours on SOME of the shared calendars change. This even occurs when setting up a brand new iPad for the first time.
    If I change the name and colour on either my iPhone or iPad, the change seems to sync back to iCloud, but, just a few seconds later, the calendar app on iOS begins syncing again and the names and colours change back.
    I spoke to two levels of support at Apple who were not able to resolve the problem. The second rep said the problem needed to be forwarded to an Apple engineer for investigation. It's now been over a month, and there has still been no response from their engineers. I've contacted Apple twice for an update, and they said the engineers still have not replied.

  • Calendar colours changing themselves

    I've been using iCal on Macbook Air syncing the Calendar over iCloud to both iPad2 and iPhone5 for about a month.
    I have two calendars - one was in Green and the other Orange (these were the default colours from when the devices were first used and I was happy with them so left the colours alone).
    Two days ago the Green calendar started changing itself to Blue and the Orange one started changing itself to Purple.  If I change the colours back to my desired Green and Orange (and I've tried doing it on all three devices) then they just keep changing themselves (on all three devices) to the undesired Blue and Purple.
    Both the MBA and iPhone5 are one month old, and software is up to date on all three.
    I'm aware of another (old) thread concerning colours and subscribed calendars, but these are not subscribed calendars.

    Me too.
    I have iPhone5 (less then 3 months old) running 5 calenders (each with a different colour).
    All are iCloud enabled.
    All are subscribed to by a MacPro (Lion) and an iPhone4.
    1 calender is subscribed to by a iMac (early silver casing runing Lion).
    In the past few days, calendar colours on the iPhone5 & then the others) keep self-changing.  If you change them back, they self-change again.
    All softrware is up to date.
    This definitely was not a problem until a few days ago.
    Help !  Apple sort this out - it is driving us mad.

  • TS3999 When using iCloud Calendar, I am unable to change the color of my work calendar. I have successfully followed the instructions to reset the colors of other calendars as desired. However, this one calendar always defaults to purple.  Help!

    File>New Calendar to create a new calendar (Groups are for grouping calendars and I should ignore them). When you've created the calendar, control-click on it in the sidebar and choose 'Get Info' There you can select a colour. You can have as many calendars as you like. When you create a new event you can select the calendar it belongs to, and hence the colour it has.

  • How can I sync my work outlook calendar to a separate 'work' ICloud calendar?

    Hello everyone,
    I have been trying to work out how to keep my 'work' calendar separate to my 'family' calendar. I have an Outlook calendar at work, and would really like to have it shown in my iCloud as a work calendar, and keep it separate from my family calendar, cause I don't want everyone at work to see what my family plans are at the weekend
    The problem is that if I sync my Outlook calendar at work using iTunes, it will sync it to my main iCloud calendar where all my family entries are, and this will 'publish' all my private calendar entries at work....
    Anyone managed to set this up so that they can be synced separately. This would be really cool.
    Thanks,
    Aaron.

    When you connect your iPad in iTunes, click on your iPad below "DEVICES", then click the tab "Info" and define on that page what you want to do.

  • My Outlook/iCloud calendar invites to others appear to work on my end and sync with my PC and mobile, but when other people "accept" the invite, it will not populate/add in to their calendar. How can i fix this without turning off iCloud?

    My Outlook/iCloud calendar invites to others appear to work on my end and sync with my PC and mobile, but when other people "accept" the invite, it will not populate/add in to their calendar. How can I fix this without turning off iCloud?
    I am at a new office that uses Outlook (not Outlook Exchange) which does not sync with my mobile... I just got iCloud set up on my PC to sync my contacts, calendar, reminders, etc... The sync worked (not without flaws, but the other issues seem solvable... I think), so that i can now see all my appointments on both my phone and on my PC. The problem I am having is that iCloud moved all of my calendar items from Outlook into iCloud calendar and now when I send out meeting/calendar invites the recipients may accept them, but the meeting does not get added to their calendar. This is a huge problem and may mean that i need to turn off iCloud.
    Does anyone know how to fix this?
    Thanks!

    I am replying to my own post here as I seem to have fixed the problem.
    I do have some calendars that are shared. Some of those are shared with users who have time zone support turned on. So i activated time zone support on my iphone, then deleted my icloud subscription. I then signed in to icloud again and voila... problem solved.
    It is a weird one as the other calendar views were always fine and when you opened an event that appeared in the wrong day (on list view), the correct date of the event was shown in the information...
    one more bug in a complicated system I guess

  • Can't see month view in iCloud calendar

    When I click on the month view tab at the bottom of the iCloud calendar screen, nothing happens. For that matter, clicking on the day tab doesn't do anything either.
    As another annoyance, in the week view I see the weeks events that were brought in from my Mac, but going to the next week shows no events. HELP!

    I am having the same problem. It started when the month view was not available. It took me a long time to figure out that when I minimize the month view, it shows up on the dock as a teeny tiny icon. When I click it, nothing happens. When I go to Week View then my calendar shows up. NOW though, my week view has disappeared and now I'm only left with DAY view. The same exact thing happens in Week view. I have no window, nothing to "grab" that I can possibly see to get it back on my screen. BUT it will be a teeny tiny icon when it's minimized.
    The only thing I can think of is that I'm a tech teacher using a projector and my laptop changes resolutions with different software programs. I have had iCal open when the resolution has had to change. The only thing I can think of is that somehow that did something to the window and I can't get it back.

  • "�" instead of Emoji icon on iCloud calendar

    Dear Apple Community,
    my first question is: Apple, are you kiding me (us)?! The problem is, after 2 weeks, still there! Just swich that Emoji option "on" again. That's what you have switched "off" the last iCloud Server Problem, isn't it?
    Well, since the "iCloud: Calendar and Reminders - 03/14/2012 17:00 PDT - 03/16/2012 15:30 PDT" (http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/systemstatus/) server problem some Emoji icons aren't anymore supported by an iCloud calender.
    F.ex.: If my girlfriend creates an event at her calender, which is open for me (via her iCloud account - I use my own iCloud/iTunes Account) with an Emoji icons in the title, I see this "�", instead of the Emoji Icons. This happens f.ex. with the "Fork & Knife"-Emoji Icon. The "Heart"-Emoji Icon is shown correctly.
    I also found out that if iCloud pushes the new created event to my iCal (on my Mac) or to the iCal of my girlfriend (on her Mac) the Emoji icons are also replaces by this "�" sign. o.O
    After all, the old events, who was created before that iCloud Server still have their Emoji icons. Only new created events are affected. (After a switch on/off of the iCal in the iCloud on my Mac, all the old events now have also the "�" sign.)
    Note: The events are always shown correctely on the device on which they are created. F.ex. if I create the event (with an Emoji icon) on my iPhone, it's shown correclty on my iPhone, but on my girlfriends' iPhone or Mac and even on my own Mac it has this "�" sign. Really strange.
    P.S.: I already feedbacked it to iCloud Feeback. (http://www.apple.com/feedback/icloud.html)
    If you have the same problem, it would be good to feedback it!

  • How do I access iCloud Calendar & Contact data from a pre-Lion iMac?

    How do I access iCloud Calendar data from my pre-Lion iMac?
    Hardware Overview:
      Model Name:          iMac
      Model Identifier:          iMac4,1
      Processor Name:          Intel Core Duo
    System 10.7 is not available for this iMac. 
    Since MobileMe has died, and my other iMac is running 10.7 Lion, iCloud is now the fact in Apple internet data sharing. 
    I'd like to keep my Address Book (now Contacts in 10.7) and Calendar in sync with my pre-10.7 iMac.  How is this done?
    Many Thanks,
    PBH

    A nice idea, but ≈$100 for far more than I need. It feels like overkill. 
    I was thinking something more like a simple CalDAV connection. 

  • I am trying to share 3 iCloud calendars, but I do not see any options when I click on the Share icon.

    I have several calendars on my iCloud, and I want to share 3 of them with my wife. I am using Safari 6.0 on Mountain Lion (10.8), and when I go to my calendars on iCloud, I see all of the calendars listed in the left column. The three I want to share already have an active Share icon (green), although I do not recall sharing these calendars in the past.
    When I click on the Share icon beside each Calendar, it shows that the calendar is shared with myself. There is NO OPTION in this window for unsharing, or adding my wife to the share, or making them a Public or Private Calendar. The only option is a check box that allows me to decide whether to receive emails alerts when something is changed.
    I currently see all of my iCloud Calendars on my iPhone, iPad, and Mac Powerbook (running Mountain Lion). I share them with no one else. I have three Calendars that I do not want to share, and they have the options described in the Online Support, but the three I want to share with her give me NO OPTIONS.

    I should clarify that I am using a MacBook Pro, not Powerbook (if that's the proper nomenclature).

  • My iCloud calendar on Outlook 7 (64 bit) no longer displays any information but the info is still availble to send by email. so it seems it's n the background on the my PC but doesn't display. Also the information is in the iCloud on-line calendar

    . My iCloud calendar on my Lenovo Tablet PC running Outlook 7 (64 bit) suddenly stopped displaying any appointments. The data is still on my iPhone 4S and online in the iCloud server. Also strangely when I start typing a new appointment it displays the typing until I press ENTER when it disappears - BUT appears on my iPHONE! Seems like an OUTLOOK display problem.

    You need to set 0 margin and padding on the body tag. Copy
    the following
    into the head of your document just before the closing head
    tag (/head>)
    Preferably it should go into an external stylesheet, but by
    the sounds of
    things you are not using this as yet.
    <style type="text/css">
    <!--
    body {
    padding: 0;
    margin: 0;
    background-color: White; /*change to suit whatever your
    background image is
    -->
    </style>

    Once you have added the above to your page, you need to save
    the page as a
    Template. You will be asked to create an editable region
    (which is the area
    that will be changed on each child page created from this
    template).
    The DW help files do offer some information on how to create
    Template
    pages - that may be the first stop for you :-)

  • How can I see birthdays in iCloud calendar on PC

    Hello
    I recently have been converting over to iCloud for my contacts and calendar and using Outlook on PC.
    I understand the online version of iCloud calendar can include a 'birthdays' calendar which sources the data from iCloud contacts.
    However when viewed on a PC there is no such calendar that I can see. Is there any way that I can get a birthdays calendar on PC without having to create one manually. Ultimately I would like to enter a birthday on my iPhone and have it appear on a calendar in outlook. Is this possible with outlook client?
    Thanks

    The data isn't actually stored in iTunes.  iTunes is like a card catalog that allows you to access information from the various places that it's stored on the computer.  SMS and contact info will be viewable in whatever program you sync contact information.  The backup actually keeps the files, but doesn't make them viewable, I'm pretty sure.  You can only see the info you've actually synced.

  • How can I share my iCloud calendar to a Google calendar account? Or publicly for that matter

    I've tried a lot of things?
    It's just irrational of apple to think everbody has their calendar format... And that way you need to setup two acconts in iCal (one via Google one via iCloud) and share *that* one. I have to make this work for a person who is not going to learn another interface and account.
    thanks in advance

    Publish your iCloud calendar to your Google account using BusyCal.

  • How do I set up multiple iCloud calendars in Outlook?

    I am trying to run to two iCloud accounts in Outlook. One is my own, private, the other is a shared account for my family. The shared family account is mainly used for calendaring (shared family calendar). I have set up my private account using iCloud Control Panel. Since this can only handle one account I need to find a way to set up the family account in Outlook. I have set up an IMAP account in Outlook for the family iCloud account, but this only gives me the mail.
    How do I get the iCloud calendar for the family account into Outlook? (Without using iCloud Control Panel since that would remove my private iCloud account, includig calendar)
    Using Windows 8 and Outlook 2013

    Interesting - I was sure I'd seen a note somewhere that it was only Mail, but this article:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts4020
    does say
    Your secondary iCloud accounts can be set up and viewed in Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars on your iOS device, or Apple () menu > System Preferences > Mail, Contacts, Calendars on OS X Lion. You may choose to do this if you have a second iCloud account and need to access its Mail, Contacts, or Calendar data. 
    Note: While you can configure multiple iCloud Mail accounts in iOS, Push mail will only work for the primary iCloud account in iOS. Secondary account(s) will check for mail based on the settings in Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Fetch New Data.
    It's not something I can test - I suppose the second account's data gets added to the lists in iCal and Address Book?

  • My icloud calendar and my wife's are not syncing

    Hoping someone can help with this issue.
    My wife and I both got my iphones on the day the 6's were released.  With iOS8 installed, we decided to use the new feature of the family iCloud with my existing account being the primary account and her's being attached to the Family account.  We created her a new account and "invited" her to the family account.  All seemed to go good.  Her calendar appeared to sync fine with all of our events that we had already entered.
    Last week our son got his basketball schedule of practices and games from now through January 2015, and after entering them for over an hour, we checked to make sure she got the new info on her phone.  She didn't.  NOTE:  I use the Sunrise app for calendar, which syncs with the Apple iOS calendar (which it did correctly - new info is there).  So I checked my iCloud.com account through the PC interface, and all new info was there.  Then I checked her iCloud.com account, and the new info is not there.  I think that if it was on her iCloud calendar it would come to her phone, so probably not a phone issue.  I have used different color codes for the different calendars, and none of the Family info (colors) are on her calendar.
    Hoping someone out there may have had a similar issue and can tell me what to do.  Other than go back to a single iCloud account as we had together for years.  I like this new Family iCloud design better - if it will work
    Thanks!

    I found out what to do.  All I had to do is Invite her from the Calendar I want to share from the iCloud control panel.  Then she had to accept it and sign in to her iCloud account.  Awesome!
