Maddening pop-out New Event window

I searched for this topic, but couldn't seem to find it.
Maybe I'm the only one who finds the pop-out window that emerges whenever you create a new event very annoying...
Is there a way to turn this function off? It pops out from the right side, or--if you move the calendar to the right side of the screen to hide this pop-out--to the left.
It drives me nuts, because it hides the window of another program that I refer to while in iCal.
Anyone have a solution for this? Many thanks!

Thanks for the tips; I didn't know you could detach the little bugger.
However, clicking the i-button doesn't seem to be a semi-permanent solution; when I create a new event, the same window pops back up. At least now I can close it, though, instead of shoving it aside.
I wish there were simply a way to turn off the info window...

  • Hi, where is the new event window in ical??

    Hi, what I'm trying to do is to repeat an event every week for the rest of the year in ical, so I read one post which had a picture of the new event window pop up. Where is that new event window??? It doesn't pop up for me.
    Here's what I do:
    1. I click on File, then New Event.
    2. A highlighted portion where I can write in text shows up, but then I don't know where the option to make the reminder a repeated reminder comes up.
    I have Mac OS X Version 10.5.8, I believe.
    Or...how do I jiust repeat an event without going to this?? I'd just like to repeant an event.
    Any help??
    Thanks in advance,
    Bonnie

    All right, never mind, I found it myself!!! You gotta double-click (press twice on mouse area) on the highlighted portion of the text that shows up on a date.
    Thanks for reading this!!!

  • In new event window how do I change the auto settings?

    As an example of this question, each new event window always has "all day event" checked, how do I change this to be automatically unchecked?

    catknox,
    Are you using Lion iCal? If so, iCal now uses data detectors for event creation. The "Month" view automatically creates an all day event unless you enter a specific time.
    Here are some event creation rules from the iCal Help Center:
    Click Add at the top of the iCal window or press Command (⌘)-N.Events are added automatically to your default calendar.
    If you want to choose a different calendar for the event, hold down the Add button (+), and then choose a calendar.
    To change your default calendar, choose iCal > Preferences, click General, and then select a calendar from the Default Calendar pop-up menu.
    Enter a name, date, and time duration for the event, and then press Return.For example, you can enter “Super Bowl Party Feb 6,” “Movie with Rebecca on Friday at 7pm,” “Soccer Game on Saturday from 11am-1pm,” or “Breakfast with Jon,” and then press Return.
    If you don’t enter a time duration for the event, iCal sets the event’s duration to 1 hour.
    If you don’t enter any time information for the event, iCal makes the event an all-day event.
    If you enter “breakfast” or “morning,” iCal sets the event to start at 9 a.m.
    If you enter “lunch “ or “noon,” iCal sets the event to start at 12 p.m.
    If you enter “dinner” or “night,” iCal sets the event to start at 8 p.m.
    To set any other event options (for example, to set your event to repeat, add an alert, or invite others to the event), make your changes in the event’s editor, and then click Done.

  • How to create a New Event Window Pop up

    The program I want to develop has many layers.  I want to have a menu page, after clicking on one of the buttons, I would like to see data display on the new event pop-up.  I have checked the example : New Event Handler.vi however, it does not work when I put my own subvi into the Event Structure.  Can you tell me what is the property of the subvi that I need to set in order to have it as a pop-up window? 
    Thanks. 
    Ellynn

    Go to the File Menu - VI Properties.  Select Window Appearance in the Category box.  Then click on the Custom radio button and then click the Customize button.  Click on the Show front panel when called checkbox and the Close afterwards if originally closed checkbox.  Click OK.  Now when you call your subvi, it will be displayed and will close when the vi is done.

  • New event window open when ical opens

    Everytime Ical opens a New Event menu box appears eventhough I have no new event to mark in my calendar. How do I make go away?

  • Everytime I use Firefox, the IE pops out the same window.

    For example, I was on St. Olaf College website using Firefox, then there was another window popped up, had everything exactly the same as the other one, but it was an Internet Exploror window. The problem is I can't close any of the IE windows that popped up.

    What is your primary browser? The site may have prompted for the primary browser to be opened. Make Firefox the primary browser. Also, try disabling all addons and try again.

  • How to Pop-up new Window and load PDF at same time

    Hi
    In my servlet application, when I receive request, I have to load PDF form and at same time I have to pop up new browser window with html content ( help data).
    I thought of writing <script>window.open(....)</script> to outputstream before writing FDFdocument , but it fails.
    I am using FDF tool kit to load PDF forms, once I set content type to "application/vnd.fdf" , I can't write any javascript to response.
    Any help /ideas to do this is appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Prakash

    Hi Prakash,
    Here is the way to solve this issue:
    Make use of HTML frame, one frame (maybe with 0 height and width) pop up with a new HTML browser using javascript. Set the content type and display the pdf in another frame.
    Note that one page can only set content type once, so if u have set it to application/vnd.fdf, you cannot write HTML content into same response stream.

  • Bug Report: New conversation window stills the sys...

    Bug Report: Skype Desktop: New conversation window stills the system/keyboard focus.
    When the UI is in multi-window mode and a conversation window pops up (due for example to a newly received chat message), that window steals the system/keyboard focus, even though it appears in a minimized state in the Windows taskbar. And this should not happen by default, because it is impractical (especially for screen reader users). And it didn't happen in Skype 6.21 and earlier. But since the new UI was introduced officially in Skype 7.0, it started happening constantly.
    Steps to reproduce it:
    1. From "View" menu, activate the "Split Window View", if it is not already enabled.
    2. From Tools -> Options -> IM & SMS -> IM settings, enable "Open a new window when I receive a new message in Split Window View", if it is not already enabled.
    3. From Tools -> Options -> Advanced, activate "Enable accessible mode", if it is not already enabled.
    4. Activate the "Save" button, to save the changes.
    5. Close all windows, related to Skype. You may keep only the main window opened.
    6. Move the system focus to another application.
    7. Tell someone to send you a chat message. When the message arrives and the conversation window pops up minimized in the Windows Taskbar, everything seams to be as it should. A few seconds after that however, the system/keyboard focus gets moved to that new conversation window, even though it is neither restored/maximized (it is minimized), nor it is visible on the screen (except as a button in the taskbar).
    Actual results:
    When a new conversation window pops up in the Windows taskbar, it stills the system/keyboard focus to itself from the currently focused application.
    Expected results:
    Skype's popping up new conversation windows should not still the system/keyboard focus to themselfs from the currently focused application.
    Test environment:
    - Operating system: Windows 8.1 Pro N, 64-bit, in Bulgarian with all locale settings set to "Bulgarian".
    - Skype version: 7.0.0.102 for Desktop.

    This is a known problem, but Skype have not given us an estimated time for a fix.
    Traditionally, Skype updates have been roughly monthly, so we are due a new version sometime soon. Many of us here are hoping that is has a bunch of fixes for the UI, the focus problem being one of them.

  • Tab click unexpectedly pops out to new window

    When I click on a tab, every so often (maybe 2-3 times a session), it will unexpectedly pop out to a new window. This occurrence is not like the purposeful downward click to immediately open a new window with the tab, but it is very delayed. In fact when this happens, my mouse pointer instantly jumps to the bottom right of the screen and if I don't move the mouse, the window doesn't open. But, after I move my mouse for a second or two, the tab pops out to the new window. Seems really strange, and can't find an answer anywhere.

  • No Drop down Calendar Window when entering a date for a new event.

    Hi
    Hope someone can help with this annoying problem.
    In ICal when entering the date for a New Event a little window would pop up showing the month that you were creating the event in, you could then click on the date you required in the calender and it would then update the 'From' date field in your event. You could then do the same for the 'To' date field this was all very neat and fast, you could create event verys easily.
    However since upgrading to Snow Leopard this has stopped working and I can't see why.
    Does somone have answer ?
    Currently this works OK when using ICAL in MobileMe.

  • Opening New Browser window for click event on an image

    hi all,
    I want someone to help me out solving the problem of opening
    a new browser window on the mouse click event of an image or a
    button etc.... The new window would contain the datagrid details
    from the main window, but in an expanded form. If at all there is a
    solution, I even want to know whether there is anyway for sizing
    the poped up window,because I dont want the new poped up window to
    cover the entire screen.
    For getting better idea of my problem, the best example I
    could give is the popup window that appears when we click on the
    preview button while posting the message to the forum.
    Someone please do help me out in this regard.
    Thanks,
    amar.

    I'd definitely try to use a Flex popup... but the
    flash.net.navigateToURL method is a simple way to open a popup
    window in a new browser. You can pass any data needed by the new
    page using the URLRequest and/or URLVariables. The URL you navigate
    to could, of course, be another Flex application if necessary. I
    use this only when I need to open a popup window on another site,
    or an HTML formatter report or something similar.
    Concerning yourself with the size of the popup window may be
    a bad design choice also. I, for example, have my browser
    configured to open all popups in a new tab regardless of sizing
    constraints imposed by the designer. If it is absolutely necessary
    for you to have control over the size of your popup window, you
    should follow the advice given by others and use a Flex
    popup.

  • New message window keeps popping up

    The new message window keeps popping up without prompting, usually twice in a row. I notice
    this particularly when I first open the Mail program. The funny thing is that you can't actually type in any text in the new message window. Any ideas???

    It seemed to work itself out after several days.

    Hello b.krushel,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities
    Any number of things could cause this issue, so I would recommend this article named iCloud: Troubleshooting iCloud Calendar found here http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3999.
    These sections in particular:
    General Troubleshooting
    Make sure there are no current issues listed on the System Status that affect iCloud Calendar. The System Status is located on the iCloud Support webpage.
    Make sure you have fully enabled iCloud Calendar for the client you are using (for more setup and troubleshooting information on iOS, OS X, Windows and iCloud.com, see the additional details below).
    Check to see if the issue you are seeing is covered in iCloud Help. To search iCloud Help, visit help.apple.com/icloud.
    Check your settings and preferences as something may not be set up correctly. For example, having incorrect date and time settings can cause issues which are easily resolved by entering the appropriate settings.
    Troubleshooting Calendar on OS X Mountain Lion (iCal on OS X Lion)Note: For instructions on setting up iCloud Calendar with Calendar or iCal on your Mac, see iCloud Setup.If you are having trouble with Calendar or iCal on a Mac and you are using iCloud Calendar, try each of these steps, testing after each to see if the issue is resolved:
    Make sure you are using OS X Lion v10.7.2 or later. Click here for help verifying the version of OS X you are using.
    Make sure your computer is online. Attempt to view www.apple.com and iCloud.com. If you can't connect to the Internet, your iCloud calendars and events will not update in iCal. Click here for more information about troubleshooting your Internet connection.
    Verify that your iCloud member name is entered into the iCloud Preference pane in System Preferences. See iCloud Setup for more information about setting up iCloud on a Mac.
    Make sure you enter and update calendar information in the iCloud section of Calendar or iCal. Only calendars and events in the iCloud section of the Calendar or iCal Calendar list will be pushed to iCloud. Both Calendar and iCal for the Mac support the display of and interaction with multiple accounts and datastores, for example, iCloud, On My Mac, Exchange, Google, and so on. This makes it easy to create or modify events or calendars in a section of  Calendar or iCal that may not be updating iCloud. Learn more about moving local calendars to iCloud.
    In some cases, you may find that you have data duplicated in both the local On My Mac and the iCloud sections of Calendar or iCal. Learn more about resolving this issue.
    You can make the iCloud calendar your default calendar for all new events. In Calendar on OS X Mountain Lion, choose Calendar > Preferences > General, or in OS X Lion, choose iCal > Preferences > Generaland under the Default Calendar heading, select one of the Calendars under the iCloud heading. Close the Preferences window to save this change.
    If recent changes simply don't appear, try forcing Calendar or iCal to refresh by selecting Refresh All from theCalendar menu.
    Make sure your account was successfully created in Calendar on your Mac (or iCal). After upgrading to iCloud Calendar, you may need to quit and reopen Calendar (or iCal). To confirm your account is configured correctly in iCal:
    Open Calendar (or iCal).
    Open Calendar (or iCal) Preferences.
    Click Accounts. You should see an account with your iCloud member name entered.
    Turn iCloud Calendars off and back on
    Quit Calendar (or iCal).
    Choose Apple () menu > System Preferences > iCloud.
    Remove the checkmark in the checkbox next to Calendars.
    Close System Preferences and wait about a minute.
    Open System Preferences and choose iCloud.
    Replace the checkmark next to Calendars.
    Close System Preferences.
    Open Calendar (or iCal) and test to see if the issue has been resolved.
    Restart your computer. This may sound simple, but it does reinitialize your network and application settings and can frequently resolve issues.
    Take care,
    Sterling

  • How to create an Interactive pop out window in inDesign CS 5?

    Happy New Year everyone.
    How do I create an interactive pop-out window in inDesign CS5? I want to have a filled content frame which has image, text and a border. when the user clicks on that frame, a pop-out window frame appears slightly over the previous frame in with a drop shadow fx. Then when the user clicks the pop-out window, it closes and the original content frame appears. Attached is a screenshot for reference.

    For what end product? HTML? SWF? PDF? Offset print? (I don't think so, but I might as well ask.)
