Moving events from one calendar to another

Is it possible to move events from one calendar to another?
Here is our scenario:
User abc123 has set up a calendar abc123:boardroom for other users to book slots in the board room (he didn't know about resource calendars at the time and so didn't request one be created).
Now abc123 is leaving the company, so his calendars are going to disappear, along with all the bookings for the board room.
So my question is, can these events (and tasks) be moved to another calendar?
I've tried creating a resource calendar and exporting/importing the calendar data, but this appears to leave the organizer of each event set as abc123:boardroom, with the result that the owner of the new resource calendar cannot modify the imported events.
Maybe I'm missing something blindingly obvious here, but there doesn't seem to be any way to actually move events from one calendar to another. Does anyone have any advice as to how I might achieve this?
Many thanks in advance.
Regards,
Mike.

here is one way:
Click on a meeting to get a Compose window. In the upper right Calendar box, click on the dropdown icon and select the calendar you want to move to from the list. Click on OK to save.
Of course, if you have a lot of meetings to move, this will be a pain, but it does work.
Note: before you do this, make sure you are an "owner" of the calendars(s) you want to move meetings to (or otherwise have access), and are subscribed to those calendars.

ICal move events from one calendar to another with AppleScript

I made an AppleScript to clean up my calendars and thought I would share. My iMac had a calendar called "Home" and my iPhone had a default calendar "Calendar" so I ended up with all of my events spread across two calendars. Decide to clean up and move everything to one calendar.
This script is admittedly not very efficient. The nested repeat loops means it takes a while to run. Feel free to take this as a start point. I have it checking each property for missing value before adding it to avoid errors. I could have added a line to delete the old event after creating the copy, but I was just deleting the whole old calendar after the script ran.
I hope this is helpful to someone. Oh, this was created under Snow Leopard so if you are in Lion you might need to tweak things. I don't know how much the scripting library has changed.

That should not be necessary because I get the value of ID out of another table, where I generate ID with a sequence..
So normally it should just tranfer that row from one table to another. But it doesn't !
Knowing that I cannot create a row in the table wouter_published_posts(I can just move rows from the add_post table to the wouter_published_posts table), It should be inpossible that twice the ID appears. But yet he keeps trowing errors...
help me, please

Can you move events from one drive to another easily?

I've just bought an external firewire drive to dedicate to my Sony HD camcorder material.
I've only imported 30 mins or so of stuff onto the Mac's internal drive with iMovie '08, and would like to know if anyone's managed to easily copy 'events' from one drive to another to merge/split content.
Is it just a case of copying event folders from the iMovie Events folder to the external drive, but if so do you have to specify a particular path?
Similarly, can you just move the individual 'Projects' or archive to DVD etc as they will invariably take up lots of space for longer footage? Does the projects file just hold references to the assembled clips, in which case moving events would scupper things as I seem to have several movie files in there already though these may just be things I uploaded to .Mac to test out.
This may all be a bit of trial and error. Hopefully clips are only references unlike the pretty huge but self-contained iMovie 6 HD project packages. This also raises issues about how to easily backup all your 'events'.
AC

Observation:
Just imported 15mins of video from the Sony.
When you click import you are asked which drive to save to.
As well as the Mac's internal drive, all my attached USB drives which are formatted as Mac OS Extended (journaled) appear as targets to save to as well as teh Firewire drive.
I selected the Firewire drive and don't recall an option to create a sub-folder. After import a new top level folder of iMovie Events was created, but no others.
Presumably iMovie Projects/Shared folders only exist on the boot drive.
I'm assuming that this structure will allow you to share movie Events between Macs using external drives.
Again, an assumption but I suspect iMovie scans all available suitable hard drives and checks what content is available in top level iMovie Events folders for non-boot drives as well as this folder in the user's Movies folder.
Rambling observations over for now.

Can you send custom events from one form to another?

I have a compli
cated application, where I about hundred inp
uts organized in several input forms. Some of the forms
require data which has been input in other forms. I have tried to
dispatch custom events from one form to another, but it dispatches the
whole form and I only need one or two items.
Ha anybody else come across such a problem?

One way is to share data in a static singleton

I have no problems copying iMovie Events from one Mac to another, however, how can I copy iMovie Projects from one Mac to another?

I have no problems copying iMovie Events from one Mac to another, however, how can I copy iMovie Projects from one Mac to another? Any help will be appreciated. Thank you.

This should give you some good insight, I'd probably store them on an External HD on the old machine and then just drag and drop to the new machine.

IMovie 10 - how do I move an event from one library to another?

Greetings,
I have updated all of my projects and events from iMovie 9 to iMovie 10.0.1. They now all sit in different libraries on different external HDDs.
How do I move an event from one library to another library in iMovie 10? How do I copy an event from one library to another library in iMovie 10?
Thanks,

Simply drag and drop from one library to another. See: http://help.apple.com/imovie/mac/10.0/#mov3fa25bae7

Moving images from one library to another; or how to have 2 libraries open at the same time in Aperture 2

This may be something easy but for some reason I am having a hard time figuring this out. Basically this is the situation: I have a library on my MBP hd that I import pictures to when I am not hooked up to my external hd for the time being. The main library is of course on the external 2tb drive. How do I have 2 libraries open so that I can essentially drag and drop the pictures from one library to another? It would basically be like moving files from one project to another. Thanks for any help!

Always keep a backup of your original images, before you delete them. I make a backup right form the card, before I even import them to Aperture.
How are your images stored right now? Are the referenced or managed? On your big volume I'd consolidate the newly imported images, to be sure they are really inside the Aperture library before I delete any images outside the library.
but they have the little yellow triangle caution symbol on them and I can see them but not really edit them
That is a very typical problem, when you imported your images as referenced images then somehow delete or move the original master image files, that are stored outside the Aperture library.
Do you still have the original masters of the images with the yellow triangle that you cannot edit? In Aperture 3 you can point Aperture to the location of the master image file "File >Locate referenced image" - probably Aperture 2 has a similar command to let you reconnect your masters, if you still have them. Look into the manual.

Transfer items from one calendar to another (on iMac)

I have a question: how can you transfer all the items from one calendar into another calendar? I thought I had come up with an ingenious solution, but it didn't work (see below).
Years ago, I set up a calendar for my wife and I to use as a "family" calendar. After uploading iOS8, I decided to try transfer all the calendar items from our "family" calendar to the newly created Family calendar. I used the Export command to export all the items in the "family" calendar, and then the Import command to bring them into the Family calendar. BAD IDEA. I got a dialog box telling me the items could not be imported because they were already on the iCloud calendar. This dialog box had to be dismissed by choosing either "Ignore", "Try Again", or "Revert to Server". This dialog box popped up FOR EVERY CALENDAR ITEM. At first I thought I was in an endless loop. I finally put a stapler on my keyboard to hold down the Return key to dismiss the dialog boxes. Even then, it took several minutes to clear the dialog boxes. Apparently, I learned how NOT to transfer items from one calendar to another.

Okay. I have answered my question. The key is to actually read and follow Apple's instructions (i.e. delete the original calendar AFTER exporting it, but BEFORE importing it into the new calendar.)

Moving Image from one Review to Another?

I attempted to upload an image (open in Photoshop) to a specific review. However, I could not see the desired review in the Photoshop CS Review panel. Out of frustration - after attempting to "find" the desired review for several minutes - I uploaded the image to another review and then went online, using Safari, to Acrobat.com.
There is no visible means of moving an image from one review to another. There is a way of dragging one review (with all sub-images) to another location. But I can't see a way of moving a sub-image from one review to another review.
IF there is some "magic" that someone knows I would sure appreciate some education.

This works quite well for a single image review. I've moved them from one workspace to another. The issue is when a review has multiple images and you want to take only one of them from that review and move it to another review in another workspace; I can't seem to get that to work at all.
When I open a review and navigate to the desired image, then click in the lower left corner and select a new workspace to move the image to, it moves the entire review - not the single image - to the new workspace.
I guess I could delete the "part" from the workspace it currently exists in and then create it as a stand alone review, but then I won't be able to imbed it into another review as I want to do.
The source frustration here is that I can't get CS Review in CSPS5 to navigate to the desired workspace/review. I get "ALL REVIEWS" displayed but not the workspaces... Any ideas on how to display workspaces instead of reviews?

Moving Stack from one folder to another?

Is there a way to keep a stack together while moving it from one folder to another. When I grab the stack and drop it to a folder, I view the folder and the images are no longer in a stack. It would save me a lot of time if they would stay stacked. Am I missing something?
Thank you.

Well your code is unreadable because you didn't post it properly, but I'd guess you've fallen into the old multiple-delete trap in a new way. It's like this:
To start with you have messages numbered 0, 1, and 2, let's say. So you write a loop that lets i run from 0 to 2 and delete message number i in the loop. What really happens? The first time through the loop you delete message number 0, after which you are left with messages numbered 0 and 1. The second time through the loop you delete message number 1, after which you are left with message 0 only. The third time through the loop you delete message 2, which isn't there and you get that message.
That's just a guess, I didn't have the patience to read that ugly unformatted code. There are two ways to do the multiple delete properly, if that's actually your problem: (1) run the loop upwards from 0 and always delete message 0; (2) run the loop downwards from N-1 to 0 and delete message i.

Moving Itunes From one computer to another

HI,
Can anyone offer advice for moving Itunes from one laptop to another? The original laptop that has my itunes on it, has broke, it froze and will not operate. Rather that lose all my purchased music and playlists i would like to swap it to another laptop. Can anyone advise if this will be possible and how to do it? Both laptops have windows XP installed
thanks
Arlene

Hi
I am having a similar problem- when I record from Itunes to a cd it only works in "Data cd" format in the advanced tab. That's okay, but when I re-insert the cd and try to import it, it doesn't show anything- it plays in Itunes okay. There aren't any little boxes to check for selecting any songs and if I try to use the import function, it shows as blank.(file type shows as .txt) I am using Itunes 6- would Itunes 7 help this?
thanks- I have a lot of music to transfer and this is a problem.

I came up with an alternative solution.
Instead of actually trying to move the JInternalFrame from one JDesktopPane to another, I added a single, maximized JInternalFrame to the left side. When one of the right side frames is to be docked, I merely copy its ContentPane to the single JInternalFrame on the left, set the original to be non-visible, and adjust the properties of the JSplitPane to make the "docked" frame appear.
When the "close" button on the docked frame is pressed, I simply undo this procedure to "undock" the frame and redisplay it on the right-hand side (with its content intact from the docked frame, but in its original position).

Fire event from one class to another.

I have a Login JFrame class that allows users to enter username and password. I then have another JFrame class which will monitor when someone logs in. I am trying to get the username and password to appear on the monitor login frame text area when the user presses enter on the login frame.
I can get it ot work by passing the Monitor class into the Login classes constructor but I want to be able to open the classes separately.When I try to open separatley at present I get java.lang.NullPointerException
     at project.LoginGUI.actionPerformed(LoginGUI.java:70) which is referring to the following code:
if(listen.equals("OK")){
     GymMonitor.username.setText(username.getText());
Both classes are in the same package. What I want to know is how to fire an event from one class to another? when the class you are firing to is constructed separately.
I hope this question is not too verbose.
Thanks

Generally for something like this you would use a listener.
Your login window is its own entity--it has a user interface, and it gets some information which someone else could ask it for. It could even generate its own events, such as when the user presses "OK". You would first define an interface for anyone who wants to know when someone logs in:
public interface ILoginListener extends java.util.EventListener
public void login(LoginEvent event);
}You would then define the LoginEvent class to contain information like what the user entered for username and password. You could give your login dialog a couple of methods:
private Vector myListeners = new Vector();
public void addLoginListener(ILoginListener listener) {
    myListeners.add(listener);
public void removeLoginListener(ILoginListener listener) {
    myListeners.remove(listener);
protected void fireLogin(LoginEvent event) {
    for (Iterator it = myListeners.iterator(); it.hasNext(); ) {
      ILoginListener listener = (ILoginListener)it.next();
      listener.login(event);
}You'd have your login dialog call fireLogin every time the user logged in.
Then, you could implement ILoginListener in your monitor window:
public void login(LoginEvent event) {
    // now do something with the event you just got.
}All the code I put in here is really generic stuff. You'll write this kind of stuff hundreds of times probably during your career. I haven't tested it though.
Hope this helps. :)
