Missing recurring events with iCal

Hello All,
I am having problems with synching recurring iCal events to my Nokia 6600 and was wondering whether someone could point me in the right direction. All other events (non recurring) seem to come over just fine but the problem seems to be with anything that has been set to repeat yearly. I am using Tiger OS with all the latest updates.
Appreciate any help in advance.
Cheers,
Vincenzo.

I'm having the same trouble. I noticed it will put a recurring event in but it will only appear for about 2 months. This only happens with events that are marked as whole day. If you put in a time such as 12:00 till 12:01, then it will repeat properly.

Recurring events with scripts don't work

Hi guys,
I have these recurring events in which I set those scripts as the alarm. The first time the event occurs the script launches as anticipated but after any recurrent event will not trigger the script at all.
Is this a known problem with iCal? I have read there were some problems with recurring events in ical...
Also would there be a way to monitor the activity behind the scene to see where it fails? And perhaps a way check if my script is the problem although it always works the first time the event occurs...
Thanks
Gabriel

Deleting a recurring event in iCal

Situation; iphone 5 recurring event wont delete. looking at same calendar on a synced PC (work) the event is not there at all.
If you are having trouble deleting a recurring event in iCal try this:
on your iphone change the event "alert" or "show as" setting on one of the events in the future. The event that wasn't showing on the PC outlook calendar magically shows up now. delete it from the PC by opening it and choosing the X delete for all occurances (if its asks).
Now open the event in iCal and you should see the Accept Maybe Decline option at the bottom - choose decline. you may have to do this on several dates, but that should delete the event.
Hope this helps.

pedfogog,
... or whoever may find this post in need of assistance as I was.
I just had this same problem and successfully deleted ALL event (past and future)instances by :
1. Click on any instance of the event in the calendar
2. Select "Delete" from the iCal toolbar "Edit" menu.
3. The iCal propmt asked me to choose to delete all or just the one instance.
4. Naturally, select to "Delete all occurrences"
I am running OS 10.6.8 iCal 4.0.4

Why don't' some recurring events in iCal synch via iCloud with my iPad2

This may be a question better asked on the iCloud community, but I already have something similar there.
Not all of my recurring events sych via the iCloud with my Mac and IOS devices. For example, my anniversary appears on my Mac and my iPhone, but not on my iPad2.
I notice that when I click on "Calendars" when the iCal app is open in my iPhone I get 2 lists of calendars - one that is labled "On my iphone" and the other that is labled "iCloud". The same two lists appear in the iCal app on my Mac. But on my iPad2 the only list that appears is "iCloud".
Can anyone help with this issue?

Here's somthing Apple suggested to me for some problems I was having that was related to the basic features of the iPhone. Connect the iPhone to your Mac, launch iTunes and.....
1 - backup your iPhone to your computer
2 - restore the iPhone to factory settings.
3 - restore the backup.

HT2513 Problem Creating Recurring Events in iCal.

Hello.
I'm having some issues creating a recurring event in one of my iCoud Calendars on iCal.
If I create a new event then go in and change the recurrance, time, and name it stays in my iCal for a few seconds then defaults back to a basic appointment with no name, time, or recurence. I then need to go back into the event and reprogram everything. It will then save the changes.
Its a little annoying as I need to reprogram the even and save it twice.
Has anyone had this problems, and could offer assistance?
Thank You!

The same thing happened to me! I'm in another discussion thread about this and it seems many people have the same problem and it all started about a week ago

Alerts for recurring events in iCal no longer display on iPhone after iOS5 upgrade

That pretty much says it. I have a daily meeting in my iCal, with two alarms set, one for 15 minutes before and one for 5 minutes before. The alerts no longer display on my phone after the upgrade. (They appear on my Mac no problem.) Has anyone else seen this problem? I have notifications turned on for iCal , set to Alerts. Tried badges, tried turning notifications off then on, to no avail. It doesn't display for recurring events that were in my calendar before the upgrade and for those created after the upgrade. I don't seem to have a problem with regular i.e. non-recurring events. Doesn't seem to matte also if it is the default calendar or a different calendar either. (I tried Reminders and that worked fine, but I don't want to have type all of my recurring events in to iCal and then in to Reminders as well....)
Thanks very much

I'm having the same problem on my iMac (works on a different phone on my MBP). I restored the iphone and no dice. I'm also constantly getting a beach ball... Hope someone out there knows a workaround.

Problem when sync repeat events with ical

Hi all,
I've a strange problem that happen when I sync repeated events on my mac versus iphone...
With iCal I can see correctly an events repeated for example for two days... (using the option repeat every day with an end date). After syncing, on imac it will be correct but on iphone (3.1.2) the same event are repeated with one more day added, three instead of two:(
Any idea about that?
Kind regards,
Stefano

Hi guys, any idea?

Outlook 2010 subscribed internet calendar recurring event problem -- missing recurring events

Hi --
In Office Outlook 2010, I'm subscribed to my wife's google calendar via subscribed internet calendars. A few weeks ago, I noticed that recurring events weren't appearing. I deleted the subscription, and resubscribed, with no luck. (All
her other appointments and events were there, but not the recurring ones - including new scheduled events she had just added.)
At the same time, I did the same thing in Office Outlook 2013, (on another computer), and all the recurring events were there.
So the problem isn't with the feed, but somewhere in MS Office Outlook 2010.
Does anyone have any idea how to fix this?
Thanks.

Hi,
Please make sure the latest patches and service packs are installed for your Outlook 2010. Since the issue doesn’t happen in Outlook 2013 on another computer, the Internet Calendar URL should be OK for opening.
Please refer to the following article to create a new Outlook profile and restart Outlook in Safe mode to have a try:

If the issue doesn’t happen in safe mode, the issue may be caused by any third-party add-ins, please disable then enable the add-ins in Outlook One by One to confirm the issue cause.

Google Cal won't let me delete recurring events in iCal on a certain Mac?

My company uses a Google public calendar for everyone in the company to schedule events and see what's going on. My new Macbook Pro can edit that calendar freely as does my Macbook. However if I'm on my iMac, I get this bizarre error when deleting recurring events. What in the world does this mean?
"HTTP/1.1 409 Can only store an event with a newer DHSTAMP"
I looked up the error in Google's Cal Help, which was useless unless you are a physicist or programmer working for them. Made not one bit of sense to me.
What can I do? It's making me crazy!!!!

How do I edit recurring event in iCal

Pre-Lion, a pop up screen asked whether to edit all events or only the selected occurence. How do I edit all of the recurring events in Lion?

Double click the recurring event and edit it - you should get this:

How to set up recurring events in iCal on OS X Mavericks?

I've just downloaded Mavericks and in iCal, recurring setting option is no longer there. This was a very convienent feature. Any help would be awesome!

If you create a new event under Calendar in Mavericks 10.9.1 - Using the month display and double clicking on the day window, an info box pops-up.
So far, so good...
There is no mechanism to "add an alert' -- the only options are "Add Invitees" in one group then Add Notes, Add Attachment... and Add URL.
This is where you lost me...
because, as is plain to see, there is an option to add an Alert, just as there was in my screen shots from 10.9 above.
Another problem -- If you right-click on the event IN the day window, an option to "duplicate" the event pops-up, but that event created appears in that same date and time with no option to provide a new date and time.
Instead of choosing "Duplicate," choose Get Info. This will open an Info window in the upper left...
Click on the date in that Info window...
and when the Date field expands (gray area, below), click on the date again, and you will be able to change the date and time of the event...
You're welcome in advance!

How do you delete all occurrences of a recurring event in iCal without deleting them one by one?

These events have no stopping point, and go on into eternity. How do I get them out of iCal without having to delete each one separately? I want to sync with my new iPhone, but don't want these events in my iPhone calendar. They are in my old iPhone when I synced it a couple of years ago. In the iPhone, you have no way to delete or edit these events.
Thanks for any suggestions.

Invitee option is missing from events in iCal

Hi,
I'm having a hard time figuring out a solution to my issue and would appreciate any help someone could offer.
I use iCal on OS 10.7.5 on my mac. And, I use the Calendar app on OS 8.1.3 on my iPhone.
I recently moved from using Apple to sync my calendars to using Google instead.
The calendars sync to each device perfectly.
BUT, while on my iPhone I have the option to invite people to events, I do not have that option on my desktop.
On my desktop, if I add an event to a calendar On My Mac, the option shows up. But if I add an event to a calendar under Shared (one of the Google Calendar calendars), the Add invitees link is missing.
Any idea how to get it back?
Thanks,
Steve
