Missing 2nd Alert on Calendar Events

Since the update to iOS 7.0.4, I have lost the ability to have a second alert on my calendar events. Is there anyway to get this back?

What are you syncing your calendar with? Not all services support the second alert.

Have problem setting Email alerts for Calendar events. Warning message says I need to set up a card in Contacts with my email. I do but it doesn't recognize it. How do I indicate the email I want alerts sent to?

The system of setting up email alerts for Calendar events worked fine in Snow Leopard but since I upgraded to Mt. Lion Calendar won't let me set email alerts. When I try, I get an error message saying I need to set up a card in Contacts for my email. I have a card set up in Contacts for both of my email addresses but it doesn't recognize them. Perhaps the name I have on the card doesn't match a name that Calendar is looking for. Calendar doesn't seem to have a way in Preferences or elsewhere to indicate the email I want alerts sent to. Any ideas how I can get this system working again? Thanks for your help.

You might want to consider starting a new discussion. Since this one is marked solved, less people are likely to look at it. You can link to this one.
See if another contact is marked as this is my card.

Calendar does not allow 2nd alert option

I'm using an iphone5 with the latest update (6.1.4) on AT&T network, as does my coworker. She can set an alert then a 2nd alert for a calendar event (ie: 1hr before and 1 day before). I can only set one.
I see the Default event alert option in Settings but I used to be able to set 2 alerts in the event. How do I get both alert options back?

Hi KT,
I don't use iCloud or have my calendar synced with anything (that I'm aware of). I browsed the setting but cannot confirm if its syncing anywhere.

Can I set individual alerts (tones) for each calendar events/ reminders

Can I set individual alerts (tones) for each calendar events/ reminders

Thanks On my phone, these are the options under Menu>Settings & Tools>Sound Settings>Alert Sounds: 1. TXT Message 2. Multimedia Message 3. Voicemail 4. Emergency Tone 5. Missed Call . And under Service Alerts: 1. ERI 2. Minute Beep 3. Call Connect 4. Charge Complete 5. Software Update. So nothing there for the calendar. And options from the calendar that I can see are Add (here you can change the tone for one event or recurring event, but not set a default tone for the event alarm), View (gives you the options of viewing an existing event in more detail, adding a new one, and the same choices from the Options list on the first screen where you are viewing the entire month), and Options (1. lets you view weekly/monthly, 2. Go To Today 3. Go To Date 4. Search 5. Erase All 6. Erase All Old 7. Send. So as far as I can see, there's no way to do it. I have been through all the Settings and Tools menus... and the Events menu. But...I have just discovered that if I delete ALL my alarms and change the Ringtone for the first alarm I set, that ringtone becomes the default ringtone. I will try deleting ALL my events and starting fresh with a new tone and see if that works!

Missing Random Calendar Events

We have several instances where random calendar events are not being sync'd to both iPhones or iPads. It does not matter the version is iOS but in this case both devices are running 4.3.1. I've verifieed the Message Class setting is set to IPM.Appointment and the appointment is not a reoccuring event. The OWA version of Exchange correctly displays the calendar event. If I use a Android device, it too, syncs the missing calendar event correctly.
This has occurred on Microsoft Exchange 2007 and 2010.
Please advise.

With Time Machine you can go "back in time" to restore files, versions of files, or your entire system. Make sure your backup drive is connected and mounted (if not, Time Machine will alert you that "Your Time Machine backup disk can't be found."
If prompted, enter an administrator name and password to proceed with the restore.
Restoring specific files or folders
Choose Enter Time Machine from the Time Machine menu and the restore interface appears. You can literally see your windows as they appeared "back in time."
You can use the timeline on the right side of the window to reach a certain point back in time (the timeline shows the times of all backups on your backup drive). If you don’t know exactly when you deleted or changed a file, you can use the back arrow to let Time Machine automatically travel through time to show you when that folder last changed.
Note: Dates in pink indicate the data resides on your Time Machine backup device. Dates in white indicate the data resides on your Mac. In OS X Lion, portable Macs have the feature of local snapshots. See this article for details.
You can also perform a Spotlight search in the Time Machine Finder Window search field to find a file. Simply type the Spotlight search field and use the back arrow to have Time Machine search through your backups to find what you are looking for.
Before you restore a file, you can also use Quick Look to preview a file to make sure its the one you want. Highlight the file and press the Space Bar to bring up a quick look.
To restore, select the file/folder and click the "Restore" button. The file will automatically be copied to the desktop or appropriate folder. If the file you are restoring has another file in the same location with the same name, you will be prompted to choose which file to keep or keep both.

How do I set up an email Alert for a Calendar event?

I can't figure out how to set up an email Alert for a Calendar event at icloud.com or on an iOS device. Am I missing something?

All my calendar events are missing!!! help!

All my calendar events are missing....can anyone help? Iphone 4s

If you are syncing your calendar with a supported program like Outlook using iTunes, just sync them back. If not, all you can do is restore your phone from the backup created the last time you synced your phone. Note: this will revert all your data and settings to those contained in the backup, not just your calendar. Be sure to import any recent photos to your computer before doing so or you will lose them.
If you want to do this, prior to connecting your phone, open iTunes and go to Preferences. On the Devices tab check "Prevent...from syncing automatically." Then connect your phone, when it appears on the left sidebar in iTunes, right-click on its name and select Transfer Purchases (to transfer any recent purchases to your iTune library). Then right-click again and choose Restore from backup.

I recently removed an outlook account and now all of my calendar events are missing. The majority of them were added from my iphone 4s. How do I retrieve the events? Backing up with iCloud did not help, as I assumed it would.

Outlook is a mail client for PC's (and Macs). It is not a type of account. Do you mean an "Exchange Account"?
If so, then re-add it. The calendar events live on the Exchange Server. The only way to get them back is to re-add the account to the phone. The contents of Exchange and IMAP accounts are not part of the 'backup' as they already exist elsewhere.

Why am I getting double popup alerts for Google Calendar events on iPhone?

This is happening on both mine and my wife's iPhones (mine is a 4 and hers is a 3GS) which are both on the latest iOS (6.0.1). This is what I've figured out:
On iPhones: Default is to set no alerts/reminder for calendar events
On Google Calendar: Default is to set a popup alert 1 hour before event & email 1 hour before event
When I create a new event on my iPhone: It saves with no alerts set, then after uploading to google calendar it shows as having two alerts 1 hour before the event. If I go into Google Calendar, it shows that 1 popup and 1 email are each set for 1 hour before the event.
When I create a new event on in Google Calendar: It saves with 1 popup and 1 email are each set for 1 hour before the event per the default settings. If I go to my iPhone, it shows that I have 2 alerts, both for 1 hour before the event.
So it seems that the iPhone is seeing both the popup and email alerts and creating two popup alerts on my phone!
Is there anyway to fix this? I've tried setting up the calendar on my iPhone through Gmail account, Exchange account and CalDav account and it's all the same.

I figured it out. It has to do with which calendars you want displayed. Duplications come from multiple calender selections.

After iOS5 upgrade, iPod touch 2nd gen won't let me edit calendar events

I have an iPod touch 2nd gen with the old processor, so I'm stuck using iOS 4.2.1 on the touch.
Meanwhile, I have a MacBook and new iPad running Lion/iOS 5.
Before I upgraded to iOS 5, I could edit calendar events from either my macbook or from my Touch. Now, I can't edit calendar events on the Touch, and when I add new ones from the Touch, the options are restricted (e.g., I can't designate which calendar the item belongs to).
Please help! This functionality is very important to me because I take the Touch to work, but not my other mac devices, so I need to be able to edit on the go.
Thanks,
Carl

How do I get my missing calendar events back after MobileMe deleted them from my iphone after syncing?

I signed up for MobileMe about a month ago. I noticed today that all of my calendar events from the last 18 months are missing on my iphone. I checked on MobileMe online and they are there. 'Sync' to me means 'make the two entries identical on the PC and the iPhone' not 'Move it to the online MobileMe and delete it from the phone'.
Is there anyway to get them back on my phone? If I had know this was going to happen I never would have signed up for MobileMe.
Thanks,
Ken
One really ticked off customer!!!!!

I have tried restoring my Iphone from my old back up on I tunes. It just restored my Iphone back to the state it was in yesterday, with the same apps with no contacts or pictures....

IOS 7 Calendar alerting for past events

Has anyone else experienced this ...
At 9:30 this morning (03-Oct) I got an alert for an event from last week (26-Sep).
Then at 10:00 I got an alert for another event from last week (26-Sep).
Upon examining the events, I saw the alerts set as:
9:30 event – alert 1 = one week before
10:00 event – alert 1 = 1 day before, alert 2 = 1 week before
After upgrading to iOS7 I set the default calendar alert to "1 week before" – that might explain why the second event's alert 2 is set earlier than alert 1.
But it doesn't explain the "you were supposed to be doing this last week" alert popping up.
Any thoughts (other than some date arithmetic gone awry)?

iPilot1 - after I upgraded to iOS 7.0.3 I got an even bigger surprise - the default alert time for any new event I created was "7 days after". I kid you not. At the top of the list of options, before "None".
However I just went back to the Calendar settings to check the default alert time, and nothing was ticked.
I chose "1 week before", and Hey Presto, new events default to "1 week before".
Of course, I won't know this has worked for sure until I get an alert.

Missing Calendar Events

Missing calendar events when viewing on Treo 755p (Sprint). My computer email/calendar will show 5 meetings, but Treo will only show 2. Email and Calendar have been sync'd. Help?
Post relates to: Treo 755p (Sprint)

I am having the same problem. The calendar in Outlook will show the event/appt and some of them sync across. If it doesn't show on the phone, I can move it in outlook and it will then show up on the phone, but another appt/event will be missing. Almost like it has a maximum number of events or something.

Deleted calendar event alert

Hi all,
I deleted a calendar event from my iPhone 4S after the event but it keeps popping up on my phone as an alert every single day. I might have set it to recurring which I dont remember but even if I did I deleted the event itself. I sync my phone with my laptop everyday but I dont understand how I get an alert on my phone when I already deleted it.
The worse part is I cant find this event anywhere on my phone but it pops up before lunch time every single day and its so annoying now. Can someone please help me out here on what I should do to get rid of this recurring event that I already deleted. Please help me! I appreciate all your support.
Thanks! Go Apple!
Kash

If you are syncing your calendar to a supported application such as Outlook you should try replacing your iPhone calendar with your Outlook calendar using iTunes. To do this, connect your phone to your computer, go to the Info tab of your iTunes sync settings and under Advanced>Replace information on this iPhone, check Calendars then Apply to sync your phone.

The URL field for iPhone Calendar Events is missing?

iCal on my Mac and my MobileMe Calendar both include a URL field for Events. I don't see the URL field on my iPhone Calendar events??? Am I missing something. I can't automatically have that link sync from iCal or MobileMe? I don't want to always have to manually move the URL into the Notes field.
This is a very annoying - Apple can figure out fancy Multi-tasking and App Folders for iPhone OS 4 but couldn't figure out how to add a simple URL field for Calendar Events??

And your question is?
