List View Printing Problem

Greetings,
I'm using iCal 2.0.3 on OS X 10.4.3.
I'm having two problems making a "List View" print look correct.
Problem #1: I have a To Do item that was due several days ago. It shows up in the main iCal To Do pane with an attention icon next to it (showing past due). However, when I print and choose "List view", to do items that are past due do not show up. How can I make them show in the printout?
Problem #2: When I print a "List view" for today's date, there are a small handful of to do items that were marked complete over one months ago that show up on the print out. Why? How can I make these go away?
Many thanks for any assistance that can be provided.
Mac OS X (10.4.3)

I have exactly the same problems John has: it seems iCal prints data in an absolutely unpredictable way. I dropped Now Up-to-Date and Entourage, and I wouldn't like to go back to them. This looks like a widespread complaint about Mac OS X and Apple should do something about it ASAP

Viewing/printing problems

I normally use a Google nexus 7 tablet, I cant view or print my bill. So not i am using a windows 8 ultrabook and I can view my bill but cant print it' HELP I don't know what to do I am new to windows 8

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. It sounds like you have a damaged database file in the iPHoto 5 library. Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys depressed and follow the instructions to rebuild the library. Select the first three options.
When you get that library working correctly copy it to the Pictures folder on your MBP (assuming you don't have a library already there that has photos in it) replacing any iPhoto LIbrary in there and open with iPhoto 7. You will be notified that the library will need to be upgraded to the new version. Click OK and let it go.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
Note: There now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

Discoverer Viewer - printing problems..

I have created a report where I want to "hide" the content of some columns. Some of the columns in the report are formated so that they have the font-color as the backgroud-color of the column - and therefore the content of the column does not show.
When printing from Plus or Desktop the report looks fine - it does not show any numbers/text in the columns that have same font-color as the background color.
The report looks fine in Viewer (on screen - even when shown in printer-friendly version), but when printing it - the formating seems to disapear... and the content of the columns are show on paper..
Does anybody know how to keep the color-fomating when printing form Viewer?

Hi
As luck would have it I posted something on hiding columns tonight in another thread. It might help here too, so here goes:
There are two ways that I know of, and there could be more, to hide a particular column in Viewer.
The simplest is to move the column to the far right of the report and then tell Viewer to only display n-1 columns, where n = the number of columns in the report. To do this, follow this workflow:
1. Click the Layout link
2. Use the Move option to move the column(s) you don't want to display to the right of the last item that you do want to display
3. Count the number of columns that you want to display
4. Click the Rows and Columns link
5. In Columns type in the number of columns that you want to display
6. Click the Go button
This second method works for tables and crosstabs that don't use Page Items. Use this workflow:
1. Click the Layout link
2. Click the More link
3. For the column(s) you want to hide, click the Up arrow alongside each one and move it to Page Items
4. Uncheck the box called Show Page Items
5. Click the Go button
I hope this helps

ICal under 10.5 doesn't print the List view with To Do's correctly.

The problem is this: I have a bunch of To Do's in iCal. I usually print them out on paper using the LIST VIEW (print dialog) so that I can take my To Do list with me. Unfortunately, after updating to Leopard 10.5, all the URL's in my To Do's have wierd links to my email and print funny code on paper now. It's like the added feature of To Do's in mail has caused something here. Anyone else experiencing this? By this way, this only happens with old to do's (before the upgrade), not new ones.

John,
This has happened to me as well. Our school uses phpicalendar to publish lesson plans to our web server. I have had this happen to three other teachers as well. In order to get them back to the correct server I have to export their calendars to the desktop, create a new calendar and publish it to the correct location, then import their calendars from the desktop. I haven't been able to re-enter the correct URL in the existing calendars - get an error when publishing.

Printing list view -- only 1 page?

I've just switched from Windows and Outlook to Mac with iCal and Entourage. When I try to print from iCal in list view so I can see all the info relating to events it won't let me print more than can fit on 1 page (I use A4), limiting me to only a few days whatever I have selected in the date range. Have I missed something or is there a way round this problem?

When you are proofing a page, you must remember to check the page range button as it defaults to all after each page is printed. How do you change this default? We have printed many copies when we are thinking that only one page will go. We toggle between idd5 and pagemaker 7. When you print a page in pagemaker 7.0 it keeps printing that page until you select another option. We are reluctant to move up because of lack of compatability with our print devices and the ppd's. Thanks
Perhaps some knows of a script that can do this. Have you tried asking on the InDesign scripting forum?
Have you considered exporting to PDF, extracting the single pages, printing them from Acrobat or Reader? With full Acrobat, you can create a document from all open PDF files, then you can print that collection of pages from Acrobat. Another approach would be to placed the saved single-page PDFs into a new InDesign file and printing that file.
Yes, it's extra steps to create one, but if you have many singles to print, collecting them in a file would let you print as many singles as are in your assembled document in one print command.

Calendar - Trouble printing in list view

I want to print all events and items on each of my calendars (so that ultimately I can combine them into one and know that whatever should be there, is).
I’m in list view, but the print option seems to stick or hang when it gets to ‘Calculating layout…’ The Calendar app remains open. (It hasn’t crashed or frozen.)
How do I fix this? Also, is there a maximum limit as to the date range to insert as an option? (I’ve tried narrow ranges but this hasn’t yet worked, either.)
Thank you!

I have not understood why this problem was occurring, but I have found a solution which is to force the calendar entries to be reset from Mobile Me. I did this:
1 Did a backup in iTunes in case it went horribly wrong.
2 Went into iphone>settings>Mail Contacts Calendars > (Mobile Me Account) > Switched off calendars - told it to delete entries on iphone.
3 Turned off iphone
4 Waited a bit
5 Turned iphone on
6 Repeated 2 and switched on calendars.
7 Waited a bit for Mobile Me to sync
All calendars restored nicely..
Why this problem occurred in the first place is a mystery. Unlike other punters, I didn't have itunes syncing my calendars to iphone, only Mobile Me........... It has the strong smell of a bug as this problem emerged after many months of trouble free syncing only when I updated to iphone 3.

Printing list view in ical

I use mail and ical for everything now. Everything is fine except When I want to print the "list view" which shows my “to dos”. It displays the URL the “do to” is attached to in mail. I use notes often in mail and enter to dos in the notes so they will have URL links. The link only becomes a nuisance when I want to print, otherwise it’s very useful.
Why would the long URL paths display when in print view???!!!!! It doesn’t make any sense.
Is there anything I can do?
Thank you

ecernek,
There is no event list option on iCal like the one on the iPhone.
That number means that you have an event invitation. Use iCal>View>Show Notifications to choose what to do with the notification.

In Ical, can you print a list view calendar without notes?

After selecting Calendar>File>Print...> I am presented with a Print selection pane which offers among other choices, a "List" selection:

How to print list view of Finder window

I want to print a list of the contents of a disk or a folder, just as I see it in the Finder's list view. How is this done in Tiger? In some older versions of the OS there was a menu command for this operation, something called Print Directory, I think.

There may be more user-friendly ways of doing this, but here's one way:
Open Terminal (in the Utilities folder).
Use "cd" to change directory to the folder you want to print
eg cd /Users/myuser/Documents
Use "ls" to list the contents to a file
ls -al > filelist.txt
You can then open the filelist.txt file from Finder in TextEdit and print it.

Printing List view/CRM4Mac

For those of you wanting to print list views with only dates that have events, CRM4Mac allows you to do this for events (no To Do's, yet.)
CRM4Mac (Contact Relations Management for Mac) might be worth folks taking a look at: http://www.crm4mac.com/index.html
It integrates Mail, Address Book and Ical (excluding tasks) but for US$50. I hope a more complete solution is on the way (ie Chronos).

Does anyone know if syncing via .Mac will also cause the URLs to show up? None of my to dos have been entered via Mail and yet all but the one I just entered have the offending URLs. Most of the contents of iCal is there via a "Restore iCal..." done as part of a migration to Leopard. I have entered several since then, all via iCal. And, all but the one that I entered just moments ago have the URLs when printed as a list. In terms of .Mac syncing, I only sync iCal and Address book, and the sync is between two Macs running 10.5.1.

Printing List View - URL Mailitem Showing Up!

Hi,
When I try to Print from iCal using List View, lots of URL code shows up under my To Do Items. Is this normal? For example:
Buy Black Trainers
URL: mailitem:12BBAE63-0EFD-43AA-8AEF-A50E33029129?type=todo&action=showparent
Why on Earth would anyone want that URL address code printed? I'm sure that information is useful to the Mac, but it doesn't make a lot of sense to a regular human being. There seems to be no way of turning it off, other than unticking To Do Items completely.

Printing iCal weekly list view

Experimenting with a trial version of Missing Sync to sync my Palm with iCal. Is it possible to delete the notes that appear under each event when I print the weekly list view? I print out 8 days and I want to keep it to one page. Eliminating the notes would help. Or is it possible to add the time frame to each event in the week view so you can more easily see the begin and end time for each event?
Is the Missing Sync program worth it or should I just use the sync program that came with iCal?

+1 to it's return.
Seems strange that it's been removed when, with the increased convergence of OS X and iOS, it's a view that available in the Calendar app in iOS.
Like others here, this was the most useful view for me and I'm disappointed it's not there, hope it comes back with the Yosemite .1 release.
Unfortunately it hasn't .

Problems with scroll bars in list view

Hello,
I am using Xcelsius 2008 (Build Number 12,2,166). I am still having trouble with scroll bars on my list view control. Other list views in my dashboard seem to be ok. It seems that this list view is not ignoring the blank cells in my excel file. I have gone through many things to correct this problem. I have added a new list view, I have copied other list views that work correctly but still no success. It seems that the "Ignore Blank Cells" property is not working correctly. Does anyone have a solution for this?
Much Thx!

Hi Yusufel,
Please check the data whether the cells are really blank or having any space which could not be seen, etc.
With best wishes
BaaRaa.

How do you PRINT a Finder window list view?

Hello all.
I think a long time ago in OS9, we can open a new (Finder) Window, switch to 'List' view and print the window, so that we can see all the nested folders, etc.
Can we/How do we do this in OS X? Can't seem to find a Print command...
Thanks and cheers

Press the Shift, Command, and 4 keys, followed by the spacebar, click in the window, open the png on the desktop, and print that.

Order of all day events • printing list view without empty days

I have only just started to use iCal in a work context. I need to programme over 500 events in several different locations (probably up to 10 locations on one day). I have divided these locations into five regions, and have made a calendar for each region.
Times are not important - just the dates, so I have been entering these events as all day events. What I would like to be able to do is ensure that in the month view (and particularly the print out) that the events I put in are always ordered in the same order that I have set up the calendars in the sidebar (I would also like more than 4 events displayed per day in the month view, but that's another matter!). I have been looking on these discussion boards and elsewhere on the internet and this appears to be a feature that many users would like implemented.
I would also then like to be able to print out separate list views for each region (calendar), but missing out the empty days. This also seems to be a feature that is wished for by many users, and has been requested for some time.
Any news on whether such changes will be made? Come on Apple, I mostly love your hardware and software, but there are quite a few of these little functionality issues scattered around the place.

In short, no - there is nothing you can do to determine the the display order of a series of all-day events in iCal. While the appear to generally be listed either in the order in which they were created or in the order in which your calendars appear in the left sidebar, even this is not always the case.
