IPad 4.3 iCal adds alert automatically

When I add an entry in iCal on my iPad 1st gen 4.3, a 10 minute alert (2 alerts) is added automatically.

you have to make a back-up first. (from itunes) so after the update, you should download the back-up files again from itunes. But I have to say ios 5 has a huge battery life problem in ipads. my battery life droped to %50 after the update.

  • Why iCal is setting an alert automatically?

    I'm using Mountain Lion and iCloud. If I set an event without any alert and then edit that event to other date/time it set an alert automatically. Not sure why. I'm attaching you a snapshot.

    John,
    That number means that you have an event invitation. Use iCal>View>Show Notifications to choose what to do with the notification.

  • Is there an iCal add-in that will accommodate different time zones?

    I am a former Windows/Outlook guy, now living in an all-Apple world (iMac on my desktop; iPhone, iPad and/or MacBook Air when I travel, which I frequently do.)
    Here is my challenge (something that was easy, easy, easy to do in Outlook): 
    I want to be able to create events in iCal that will occur in some other time zone without having to do the mental math. 
    For example, I am sitting at my desk in my home time zone (Eastern Time) and book a flight from Washington to Los Angeles for sometime next month.  What I WANT to do is create an event with a start time of 8:30 am Eastern and an end time of 11:30 am Pacific.  To do that now, I have to mentally say "That's really 8:30 Eastern to 2:30 pm Eastern". Hope I got the conversion right.  If I did, all is good.  The event will show up properly in my iPhone at departure time in DC.  When I fire up my iPhone on landing in LA, the internal clock adjusts, and everything is good. If I make a mental mistake (for example, add hours rather than subtract), I might miss my flight.
    I have another trip already on the books to Dallas.  I get an email from a colleague setting up a meeting while I am there.  Regardless of whether I am sitting at my iMac in DC or looking at my MacBook in a hotel room in LA, what I want to is be able to enter the appointment as "2 o'clock Central Time" and be assured it will show up in the proper time in my calendar, regardless of where (or when) in the world I happen to be the next time I look at iCal.
    Most of the comments on this forum suggest work arounds. "Just work it out in your head". But I am not talking about doing this occasionally with one or two events.  I do it constantly with literally scores of events occuring in multiple time zones. And there is nothing worse than setting an alarm clock for 3 in the morning in Paris so you can get up to catch that 8 pm Eastern board of directors conference call only to discover you missed the call because you screwed up the math when you entered the call in your calendar.
    Like I said. Outlook in Windows does this flawlessly.  But setting up Outlook on my home Mac (in a Windows partition) defeats the purpose of my trying to do it on the software, platform and hardware I prefer to use.
    Which is a long winded explanation to get back to my simple question:  is there an iCal add-in or standalone app that plays well with iCal that will let me designate the time zone for start and end times when I create an iCal entry?

    It sounds like 1Password may do what you're looking for.

  • Does iCal has alert feature like in Mac Calendar?

    Does iCal has alert feature like in Mac Calendar?
    In the Mac Calendar, you can set a alarm for an event to send an e-mail at 15 minutes before event. Is it possible to do same in iPad iCal?

    I know it will pop up an alert message, but is it possible to get it to send out an e-mail message instead? If it is possible, could you tell me how to do it in the iPad? I seem to be only able to make it pop out a message but not able to make it sends out an e-mail. Thanks.

  • Calendar Adding Alerts Automatically - Do Not Want!

    Hello all,
    For some reason, Calendar has been adding alerts automatically and I do not want this to be happening. In my Calendar preferences on my Macbook Pro, I have all alerts set to "none." This only happens on newly created calendars for some reason.
    The problem goes a bit futher, though, and my iPhone 4 (running 6.1) and iPad 2 (running 6.1) are also adding alerts automatically. I scrupulously deleted all the alerts that Calendar created (from my Macbook), updated my devices, only to find that there were still alerts on them. I have all alerts from Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Default Alert Times set to "none" on both devices.
    I do not use iCloud or Google Calendars.
    What on earth is going on and how do I fix it?

    I understand how IMAP works. Thanks.
    The problem is that the iPhone is automatically, without user input, deleting everything from the InBox. This is determined by the log on the server. I traced the IP of the device that is deleting the email back to the iPhone.

  • Revert to prior program after an iCal event alert.

    Is there a setting available for the iPod Touch to automatically revert back to the program being used before an interruption from an iCal event alert?

    I have a Logitech app that turns my iPod Touch into a mouse for my G5. It is very nice. However if I get an alert from iCal and I need to go into iCal to reschedule I have to exit iCal then re-launch the Logitech app. I have not tried ignoring the alert yet. It would be preferable to enter iChat then get back to the Logitech app without having to re-launch it.
    Thanks for your reply.

  • Why doesn't ical add all of my google calendars on the same page?

    why doesnt ical add all of my google calendars on the same page.
    like in gmail, i have different calendars that all show up together on the same page.
    i see that they are there in ical when i click window. but the are not all see together on one page.

    If the box next to each calendar in the list is checked, it should show the contents of the calendars on the page. Unchecking the box hides the calendar.

  • My iPad is downloading my video purchases automatically, but it's only downloading two episodes from Supernatural S10 that I have watched and deleted. I can't stop it from downloading, and I can't download anything else because of it. Help!

    My iPad is downloading my video purchases automatically, but it's only downloading two episodes from Supernatural S10 that I have watched and deleted. I can't stop it from downloading, and I can't download anything else because of it. I don't know what to do. There is some sort of glitch happening and it's really affecting my iPad. I've tried letting it download but before it completes, it says it is unable to complete process and asks me to try again. I am on a limited interest data plan and can't afford these downloads to continue. What can I do?

    Have you tried deleting the App within the Settings menu (rather than from the Home Screen)?
    Settings>General>Usage>
    From the Apps list, find the App (press "Show all Apps" if the app is not in the immediately shown list), tap on the app you wish to delete, then tap "Delete App"

  • Whenever I turn my MacBook pro on, all the other stuff is loaded (MS word/excel/powerpoint), Spotify, iCal, etc are automatically loaded, so in order for me to go to my desired website, I have to close (x) out all applications loaded. Please advise.

    If you are using Lion:
    Dealing With The Resume Feature of Lion
    Managing Mac OS X Lion's application resume feature.
    If you shutdown your computer you should get a dialog asking if you want applications to resume on the next startup. Simply uncheck the box to prevent that from occurring. Open General preferences and uncheck the option to Restore windows when quitting and re-opening apps. You can also install a third-party utility to control resume features on individual applications: RestoreMeNot or Application State Cleaner.
    It is possible to completely stop the Resume feature although I'm unconvinced that it is that annoying. Nevertheless see the following:
    If you have not yet done so you must first make your /Home/Library/ folder visible. Open the Terminal application in the Utilities folder. At the prompt paste the following command line:
    chflags nohidden ~/Library
    Press RETURN. Quit the Terminal application.
    In the Finder navigate to the /Home/Library/Saved Application State/ folder. Delete the contents of the folder. Back up to the /Home/Library/ folder. Select the Saved Application State folder. Press COMMAND-I to open the Get Info window. In the Sharing and Permissions panel at the bottom click on the lock icon and authenticate. Set each of the listed entries to Read Only. Close the Get Info window.
    Quit all open programs except the Finder (this is very important.) Next, navigate to the /Home/Library/Preferences/ByHost/ folder. Look for a .plist file with "com.apple.loginwindow." in the file name followed by some numbers in hexadecimal. Select the file. Press COMMAND-I to open the Get Info window and in the Sharing and Permissions panel click on the lock icon and authenticate. Set each of the listed entries to Read Only. Close the Get Info window. If you also find a file with the same filename but with a last extension of ".lockfile," then you should delete it.
    The above should eliminate the Resume feature system-wide. Note that any future system updates or upgrades will likely undo these changes. You will then need to repeat this procedure assuming there are no major changes in OS X related to it.

  • How to confirm the alerts automatically in the internet mail?

    Hi,gurus:
         I wanna know how  I confirm the alerts automatically in the internet mail.Now we have to navigate to the alert inbox to confirm the alert,but can I do it in the internet mail? I have confirued the parameter in ALRTCATDEF->CONFIGURE->SETTING->INBOUND PROCESSING,but it didn't work.
    Thanks in advance.

    hi,
    I checked the library,and it says:
    Confirming Alerts by Internet Mail
    When an alert is sent by Internet mail, the Internet address of the alert user entered in alert configuration is entered as the Reply To address of the mail. An alert ID is inserted into the text of the mail. When the recipient answers the mail from the alert system, the alert is confirmed automatically. Inbound processing sends a status mail to the sender stating either that the alert has been confirmed successfully, or that an error has occurred. The alert ID must be included in the body of the reply mail.
    My question is: How to reply the mail?Where do I write the the alert ID?any ideas?

  • How do I add transitions automatic in iMovie 10.0.3

    Hi,
    I updated imovie a couple of days ago and I can't find the feature in iMovie that adds transitions automatic. All guides on internet says that you have to press "file- project theme" and change it from there. When I click the file button in top of the screen the option "project theme" is not there. There has to be a way to add transitions automatic. Right now I'm working on a slideshow with hundereds of pictures and adding transistions manually is not an option

    if this is the first time to happen in this version of the app. then it may just be a flaw with that version, if you have already un-installed and re-installed the app then it will just be a waiting game at this point until youtube hears and it and fixes it

    Hello BDAqua, thanx for the suggestions. Before I saw this reply I tried to first quit the finder and then to relaunch the Finder but that resulted was a blank gray screen.
    In the end I ended up having to power down the iMac.
    Fortunately the RAID array that was "active" seems to be fine and also has a firewire 800 connection so I can use it_ just not with thunderbolt until this issue is solved.
    I'm going to check in the Applications>Utilities>system log to see if any clues are evident_ thank you for the suggestion.
    PS: Nothing of note was obvious as a root cause in the Activity Monitor though.
    hmmm....I was told that the Helios and seritek card were compatable and that the Helios didn't require any drivers..it will be a drag if there isn't an easy fix for this since this new PCIe card from seritek is the first to offer port multiplier compatibility for eSATA to thunderbolt...since they are both new I'm hoping that an OS upgrade will be the fix (presently7.2)...we shall see.
