IOS 5.1 Calendar bug - URLs no longer launch Safari

After upgrading my iPhone 4 over the air to IOS 5.1, tapping on URLs within Calendar meeting invitations (within the Notes field) no longer launch into Safari. I now must hold my finger on the URL, select "Copy", open Safari separately, then paste the URL into the address bar.  The "Open" option does nothing as well. 
This bug exists in both the the native Apple Calendar app as well as 3rd party calendar apps, and only started once I upgraded to 5.1.
Yes, I have restarted my device multiple times and the problem presists.
Is this bug seen by others?  Or is it unique to me for some reason?

I have the same problem.

  • IOS 5 calendar bug: Floating Appointments

    This is a bug with iOS 5's calendar that you can reproduce yourself. This bug was not in iOS 4:
    1. Enter an appointment into iCal on your Mac running Mac OS X 10.6.8.
    2. Make the appointment a FLOATING appointment, which means that its time will ALWAYS stay the same, regardless of which time zone you are in.
    3. Sync your calendar using MobileMe.
    4. Now go to your iPhone 4 running iOS 5.0.1.
    5. Sync your calendar using MobileMe.
    6. Make sure your iPhone's calendar settings have Time Zone Support turned ON.
    7. Go into your calendar, and look for your floating appointment.
    8. On the MONTH view, your appointment looks JUST FINE! The times are correct!! However, if you try to EDIT THE EVENT, you will see the gigantic bug crop up: the times are completely & wildly off from your original floating times. If you try to modify the times, then you will only mess up the times on the month view even more. There is no way to get the iPhone's calendar appointments to accurately reflect the floating time on both the month view and when editing the appointment. It is completely off.

    Thanks for the info, I gave it a try but am still having the same problem as I mentioned before.
    I believe your issue is a bit different than mine.  My 3 outlook canlanders are there, two of them are displaying (my wife's calendar and my work), however the primary calendar I use in outlook isn't displaying.  It shows that it is selected, however none of my events are there.  I'm able to add new events in this calendar just fine, but all of my events that were there prior to the upgrade in iOS aren't.
    I've already checked settingings to make sure it syncs all old data also, but it still doesn't display events from my main calendar.
    So the issue isn't that I am missing all Outlook calendars, rather I am missing only one of the 3.

  • After updating to ios 5, my calendar sometimes freezes when entering a new event. I have tried syncing but it doesn't fix the problem. Are there any bug fixes for this? Any ideas would be great thanks, I don't really want to have to reset everything!

    Try to reset the iPod by  pressing the home and sleep button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again. You will not lose data doing a reset, but it can clear some glitches after installing new software or apps.

    1. Try reinstall iLIfe 09 from your install disk
    To re-install iPhoto
    1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
    2. Download it from the App Store to reinstall It's on your Purchases List* there.
    For older versions that have been installed from Disk you'll need these additional steps:
    2a: On 10.5:  Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name.
    2b: On 10.6: Those receipts may be found as follows:  In the Finder use the Go menu and select Go To Folder. In the resulting window type
    /var/db/receipts/
    2c: on 10.7 or later they're at
    /private/var/db/receipts
    A Finder Window will open at that location and you can remove the iPhoto pkg files.
    3. Re-install.
    If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
    If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only.
    *Sometimes iPhoto is not visible on the Purchases List. it may be hidden. See this article for details on how to unhide it.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4928
    One question often asked: Will I lose my Photos if I reinstall?
    iPhoto the application and the iPhoto Library are two different parts of the iPhoto programme. So, reinstalling the app should not affect the Library. BUT you should always have a back up before doing this kind of work. Always.
    If that fails, then you're reinstalling the OS.

  • After updating my 5S to ios 8.1.2 sync calendar to outlook no longer works

    After updating my 5S to ios 8.1.2 sync calendar to outlook no longer works, using iTunes 12.0.1.26.
    It will sync from Outlook to the phone, but not from the phone to Outlook.  This was working last week with the last version of iTunes and ios 8.1.1

    Hello MEOS001,
    If you are not seeing any changes being made over to your iPhone and vice versa to your computer, take a look a the article below. It will walk you through resetting the SyncServices Folder as well the Sync history. It may also be an issue with any plug ins that Outlook may have installed that may be preventing the sync. 
    Troubleshooting Sync Services on Windows with Microsoft Outlook 2003, Outlook 2007, or Outlook 2010

    Take care,

  • Ios 7 calendar bug meeting passing midnight

    I am running a Mac Mini Mountain Lion server with calendar for my wife and I. we both have iPhone with IOS 7
    My wife writes her work hours, since there are night shifts, in her calendar to let me know when she is working.
    After IOS 7 the calendar app is showing her work time all wrong if it passes midnigt.
    Example: She is to go to work on the 27th at 23:00 and get off work at 07:00 the next morning. The problem is that the calendar looks like she is going to work at 07:00 on the 27th and getting off work at 07:00 on the 28th. Conclusion: It respects start-date, end-date, end-time, but ignores start-time and substitutes it with end-time, when the appointment streteches across midnight.
    It does not forget the correct times, because they are still there if I try to edit the appointmen, and other iPhone Calendar apps show the appointments correctly. Mavericks Calendar also shows it correctly.

    Well, with that, the only way I would know to troubleshoot if a reset does not help would be a restore. A restore will reload the OS, and the calendar app is part of the OS. Create a backup of the device, then restore the device as new. Try to enter an event in the calendar as you describe and see if it works. If it does, then try restoring to your backup and see if that changes it. If you have an Apple store close by, you could always make an appointment there and see what they have to say, and even try the event on a display device to see how it acts.
    I cannot say anything about the timezone and regional settings. Like you say, we are on two different groupings. I'm in the US in the Central time zone.
    Good luck in your troubleshooting.

    What year, screen size, CPU speed and amount of RAM installed?
    Why not upgrade to Snow Leopard, if you can?
    NO. There is no way to downgrade your iPhone OS back to iOS6. Apple makes downgrades of their mobile OS not possible.
    If you can, the only thing you can do is upgrade your Mac's OS X operating system.
    Sorry,

  • IOS 7 - iCloud calendar push not working

    Ever since upgrading to iOS 7, our iCloud calendars are no longer automatically pushing onto our iPhones (iPhone 4S and iPhone 5S).
    If we make a change to our iCloud calendars on the iCloud.com website or on our OS X calendar, the calendar changes won't automatically appear on our iPhones unless we MANUALLY LAUNCH the Calendar App. Once we launch the Calendar App, the iCloud calendars update perfectly within a few seconds. But we are FORCED to manually launch the calendar app first, in order to get the calendars to update.
    The "Push" setting is already turned on in our "Mail, Contacts, Calendars" Settings, so that's not the problem.
    Push will work okay for about 20 minutes after we manually launch the calendar app on our iPhones, but after that, it's as if the calendar app "goes to sleep" and needs to be manually woken up.
    Any ideas on how to fix this?

    It has been like this even since iOS 6 (mabye earlier also).
    This also happens on OS X (Mountain Lion).
    What makes it work again is simply to go to Settings -> iCloud and unselect calendar.
    Wait 20 secounds then select calendar again.
    Same procedure on OS X.
    This makes the system reconnect to the calendar server.
    For me it usually stops to work again after 1-2 days. Really annoying.
    I think this is a problem on the iCloud-calenders-server side since it's both on iOS and OS X.

  • Since iOS 8.1.1 I can no longer use my mail app.

    Since iOS 8.1.1 I can no longer use my mail app on my iPad Mini. The mail app opens and updates, however the screen does not respond to anything. Am rather stuck as to what to do. This is the Mail App that comes with the iPad Mini.
    I have tried to turn the iPad On/Off all to no avail. I don't really want to reset my iPad as this will cause more trouble than it is worth and will ultimately update the iPad to iOS 8.1.1 anyway. Do any of you have any suggestions that don't involve resetting the iPad ?
    Thanks All

    Before you delete your mail accounts, try giving your iPad a reset and force closing the mail app. It may clear up the glitch before you remove and add your info again
    Reset
    Hold down the sleep and home keys for about 20 seconds. When you see the silver apple, let go and let it reboot. No data will be lost.
    Force close an app
    Double tap the home button. When you see the app previews on the screen scroll sideways if needed to get the preview in question on the screen. Flick that preview up and off the screen to close the app. Single tap the home button or home screen preview to exit the mode.
    If those don't fix it then try to remove and put your info back in.

    Thank you wjsten for your soon reply. Unfortunately on these days I'm in a country that Apple don't have any retail store here and for sake of time I prefer to fix it myself to DHL it to the nearest country to use its warranty. Do you have any idea how can I fix it? Do you think it's a software issue?

  • After installing iOS 7.1.1, I can no longer send links from Safari using my Yahoo account

    I frequently send links from Safari, and as my Yahoo is my default email, it obviously sends from Yahoo. However, since installing iOS 7.1.1, those messages end up in my outbox, and I get a message saying "a copy of the message has been placed in your outbox. Sending the message content to the server failed." I am able to change my sending email to Gmail or my company domain, though, and the message will go through without issue. But changing the sending account to a different Yahoo account generates the same failure message.
    Is this a Yahoo problem (which wouldn't surprise me)? Or is it an iOS 7.1.1 bug (which also wouldn't surprise me)? Anyone else having the problem?
    For the record, I have rebooted the iPad Air 128GB. I have tried this on multiple wifi connections (AT&T Uverse at the office, Time Warner cable at home, blazing fast local fiber company at the gym). The only thing I have not done is remove & reinstall the Yahoo accounts. I thought I'd pick the collective brains of the community first.
    Thanks!!

    Addendum
    Sending straight from the mail client in any/all of the Yahoo accounts works just fine. The bug just seems to happen when sending links from Safari.

  • Publish calendar to mobileme no longer works

    I've been publishing a calendar in iCal to mobileme for several years. After upgrading to Snow Leopard, I noticed that the publishing was not working (the icon next to the calendar in iCal indicated an error). So I unpublished and republished. I was told it was successful and give me that window with a button to view the published calendar. When I do that, Safari goes to the site but prints a message, telling me "We're sorry but we cannot find the iCal you've requested. It's possible that it has been deleted or renamed."
    I cut and paste the address into Safari - the URL that I was provided after a successful publish, and again got the same error. I've unpublished several times and republished, always successfully - so I was informed when the calendar was sent. But I always get the same error reported.
    I've gone to my mobileme via browser to check my iDisk and other features - they all work. My iCal is even correct when viewed. It's just the published calendar that can't be accessed.
    Anyone know what's going on or have a suggestion.
    Thanks.
    Well, I tried another search and have found a thread where users indicate the same problem. This seems to be a mobileme problem that I guess I'll have to wait until it is fixed.

    Yep, same problem. Won't show up via browser and the embedded calendar won't display in iWeb. I've changed the calendar name, exported and imported (removing unsafe alarms), shortened the calendar name as to exclude any numerical or punctuation including spaces and nada. Next step is to friggin create a new calendar from scratch and re-enter all the dates/info...but I'd still like to know what the heck is going on.
    Anybody have any other success besides creating a new calendar?
    PS - Confirmed that establishing a new calendar clears up the problem. The fun of data entry for all those appointments...
