Multi-day events only showing up on first day of event in year view

There are several things about iCal that I find annoying (makes me miss my old Palm PDA sometimes), such as being able to set my own default meeting times, meetings being defaulted to all-day, no way to connect a contact to the event without having to invite them to join (my old Palm did this and it was a very useful tool). Each of these has many discussions already on these topics with a solution (except adding a contact to an event), such as simply typing in the meeting time when you setup the event.
However, I can't find a discussion on the following question, and therefore no solution. Hope someone out there knows the answer:
Why do Multi-day events only show up on the first day of the event in year view, and is there a way to change it?
Thanks in advance!

Greetings,
Perhaps I'm not setting up my events as you are but I see a color for each day of my multi-day event.
My steps:
1. Add a multi-day event to iCal:
2. Switch to Year view and observe the matching date range (26th - 29th):
Suggestions:
Make sure you have all your updates installed (Apple > Software Update).
Toggle the "all day" check box for the events in question and see if that makes the events show up in Year view.
If that doesn't help, please provide a screen shot of the edit window of the event in question so we can see how you have it configured:
Cheers!

  • Events over multiple days only show on the first day in 'Month' view

    Hi,
    I've noticed that if I create an event that spans over two days (for example 23 May 2008 at 6 PM to 24 May 2008 at 1 PM) are only displayed on the from date in Month view.
    This is unfortunate because if I look at my calendar in Month view, I think I'm free on the 24th, when in fact I'm busy until 1 PM.
    Is there a way to get the Month view to display an entry for the event on both days (other than creating one event running from 23 May 2008 at 6 PM to 11:59 PM and a second from 24 May 2008 at 1:01 AM to 1 PM)?

    Hi Sam
    I just had the exact same problem the other day. I was asked to make an appointment with someone, I checked my calendar (actually on my iPhone) and I looked available that day so agreed and even entered the event. Turns out I will be working 70 miles away on the event I entered on the day prior. I've had the embarrassment of having to reschedule - makes me look disorganised.
    The month view on iPhone is just the same as iCal - if it's not an 'all day' event it only shows on the first day. This is poor. I recall even outlook and windows mobile calendar manages to display this sensibly. Apple should be fixing this pronto.

  • Please help me. I've just lost my iphone so I related to my backup contacts on icloud to get my contacts back. But my contacts only show at the first time and then they dissappeared, my contacts was empty. How can I see my contacts?

    If they aren't on icloud.com they are no longer in iCloud.  If you don't have another backup, I'm afraid they're gone.

  • Vertical Shape with a phrase only show's in first page!

    Hello!
    I'am designing a purchase order and customer dont have to use a pre-printed paper. I have a need to have a phrase in vertical in left side of all pages!
    I created a shape and put the phrase inside of shape.
    My problem is that the phrase only appears in the first page of my purchase order.
    Someone Have an idea how to solve this issue?
    Thanks in advance.

    Thanks. Hadn't seen the "Troubleshooting a CD-ROM or DVD-ROM Disc That Does Not Appear on the Desktop". I have reset the SMC and PRAM/NVRAM to no avail. One thing that's interesting is that it suggests: "Make sure the appropriate extensions are installed and active in the Extensions Manager. (Apple CD/DVD Driver, Foreign File Access, UDF Volume Access)."
    There is nothing in my Macintosh HD/Library/Extensions folder. Other than that I'm not sure what they mean by Extensions Manager -- perhaps it relates to an earlier OS version, maybe even System 9. Powerbooks are mentioned on that page, but not MacBooks or MacBook Pros.
    In any case, I notice that there is now a support option where you can submit a wider range of issues than before and have Apple call you back to discuss it. They are going to call me back tomorrow. Maybe that'll help get to the bottom of this.

  • Aminated gifs only showing the last frame on the 2nd time of viewing

    I have 2 animated gifs and on pressing a button i am changing between the 2 on te first click the animated gif runs sucessfully and clicking the button again the 2nd animated gif runs sucessfully. However when i go to run the first animated gif again it only shows the last frame and this continues no matter how many times you press the button. Is there any way of getting it to start from the first frame. By the way just in case it makes a difference both the animated gifs run once they do not continously keep going and that is how i want them to be.

    public void mousePressed(MouseEvent e){
         if(corner.contains(e.getX(),e.getY())){
         if(reversed){
              setImageFile(gui.getFrontImage());
                   gui.setComponents(true);
                   reversed = false;
         else{
              setImageFile(gui.getBackImage());
                   gui.setComponents(false);
                   reversed = true;
         repaint();
    public void setImageFile(java.lang.String imageFile) {
         fieldImageFile = imageFile;
    /* Get and download the image for the new postcard background */
    backgroundImage = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getImage( fieldImageFile );
         MediaTracker mt = new MediaTracker( this );
         mt.addImage( backgroundImage, 0 );
         try{     
              mt.waitForID( 0 );          
         catch( InterruptedException ie )
         repaint();
         mt.removeImage(backgroundImage, 0);
    public void paint(Graphics g)
    {     if( backgroundImage != null )
         g.drawImage( backgroundImage, 0, 0, this );
    so basically i press an srea area on the screen and every time i do it alternates between these 2 animated gifs gui.getBackImage() just returns te string of the animated gif file. I've checked to make sure that a new instance of the media tracker is being created each time and it is so i'm not really sure where the problem is!!

  • Multi-Cam Tool only showing angles on pause...

    Hello,
    I know this has been discussed before, and I had posted on this too, however, I am still having problems, and had to finish my project 'manually', and could not use the multi-cam function, and am wondering if there is ANYTHING else I can do to rectify this. This is what I have done on my own:
    Trashed my Preferences, however, I noticed that only 'Final Cut Pro 5.0 Prefs' and 'Final Cut Pro Prof Cache' loaded in again when I re-launched Final Cut. 'Final Cut Obj Cache' and 'com.apple.FCP.plist' did not get included. Does this matter? They are still in my Trash, as I have not emptied it.
    I Collapsed/Uncollapsed my clips, rendered them since I was prompted to do so, set both the Viewer and the Canvas to 'Open', yet they both still play at the same time, in 'full' format. If I don't render, I can't play because of stuttering, then stopping.
    RT Menu is set to 'Unlimited RT'; 'Scrub High Quality'; 'Dyamic'; 'Dynamic'; 'Multiclip Playback' and 'Full Quality'.
    I read about putting in a 'null' effect, so as not to render, but then it stutters, then stops playing completely. Also, if I take the rendering out of Rendering Manager and continue w/out rendering, it's the same thing - not able to play until it's rendered.
    If there's anyone who can help with this, I have seriously tried every avenue I can think of, and I haven't been able to get anywhere with this - sorry this so long, but needed to say what I've done, thanks in advance!
    iMac G5   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    I tend to give my clients a rough cut with no filters applied. If they're happy with the cut, then we go through and add any necessary color correction, etc.
    If you don't think your client could handle seeing a rough cut with no filters, the give it to them with the filters. Once they decide on some changes, throw out your render files, make your changes, and render again. Or, like you said, it shows the angles on pause. Pause it on the shot the client doesn't like and pick a different one.
    As far as transitions, well of course it would only be able to show the selected angle. How would you suggest FCP creates a dissolve from one clip to four clips?

  • Date Controls in repeating table of Infopath 2013 only showing Calendar in first row date controls

    I am using SharePoint 2013 and InfoPath 2013.
    and using form library which uploaded at server.
    I am using repeating table over section . and place Date Controls.
    At the run time it is showing first row with START and END
    date controls.
    when I click INSERT Item it is showing second row with
    Date Controls.
    It is opening and showing calendar only on first row.
    But when I click Date Control button at second row it is not showing or opening calendar.
    Yesterday it was working. but today is not working at site.
    Although it is working on InfoPath 2013 Preview.

    Hi John,
    Based on your description, my understanding is that the Date Control cannot work correctly in the InfoPath form.
    I recommend to re-publish the form to SharePoint and then compare the results.
    Please go to the Library setting page of the library where the form is published > click Advanced Settings > click Edit Template in the Document Template > now the form will be opened in InfoPath Designer and then click Quick Publish button in the
    top of the menu tab.
    Best regards.
    Thanks

  • I have not upgraded to ff 4 but when I now search for an image online it will only show me the first two pages

    Then there are seven pages of empty grey squares ( where the images should be ) and scrolling down to the bottom there is a button which has `show more results` written on it, this happens every time I do an image search. I have done the same search using `internet explorer` and there is no problem finding thousands of pages of images.

    Finally Ive found a solution !!!!.
    Open your browser, click images and search for any image, when the images appear (probably only two pages of them) scroll right to the bottom of the page and click `Switch to basic version`. Problem solved!!!!!!.

  • IPhoto only shows one photo (first one) when making Photo Book?

    I clicked the + to add the album, I chose the "Book" option, but it only lets me use the first photo in the album.  The other 60  photos aren't in the view bar above.  How do I get all of the photos to appear so that I can arrange the photo book, or do Autoflow?
    Also, what am I missing that I used to be able to see thumbnails and I can only see that in Full Screen now?
    thanks-

    Try selectihng all of the photos in the album instead of just clicking on the album and dragging them onto the book icon.  That will add the photos to the book.  You can do the same with any photos in the library: just drag a photo onto the book icon to add the photo to the book.

  • Crash when adding new multi-word event to month view

    Recently updated(?) to Leopard from 10.4.11. Now, adding a new event to iCal when in month view often causes a crash. Sequence is:
    0) click in desired date box to start new event
    1) type first word of event, type space, start typing second word
    2) input freezes after a few chars and acts as if I had exited the input box
    3) reclick on the input to edit/complete it
    4) * crash *

    This is also driving me nuts... Actually, I have not even figured out how to even enter a new appointment in month view. It used to be double-click, enter name, hit <tab> and fill out he rest in the panel, but this routine does not work any more.

  • When I open TB, under "Accounts", it only shows the option "Create a new account". Option: "View settings for this account" is NOT shown.

    When I open TB, I no longer see any information about the TB account I've used for years. Instead, the main menu shows only "Accounts" -- "Create a new account - Email, Chat, Newsgroups, Feeds". Option: "View settings for this account" is NOT shown.
    Also the main menu does NOT show "Email - Read messages, Write a New Message" or "Advanced features", etc..
    The actual emails pertaining to the TB account I've used for years are still present under the "Users --> xxxxyyyy --> AppData --> Roaming --> Thunderbird' folder.

    Something covering the lens?
    First thing to try is to reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider should one appear until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.

  • ICal multi day event not showing on screen

    Help ! When using iCal, I am stumped as to how to make multi day events show up on the appropriate days .... I enter an event for say 3 days, on my screen I see it in iCal only on day one, it does not show up on day two or three however when I print my calendar, it does print on all the appropriate days. Is there a setting to change so it shows up on my screen on all the days like it does when I print ? Thanks!

    Hi there,
    So, that's in Week or Month view you are talking about?? ... it only shows on the first day?
    Probably stating the obvious, but I'm assuming you are ticking the "All Day" box when you enter the Event?
    If you don't, but leave a time, say 10pm, and have a start date of the 18th and an end date of the 20th, say - it'll display only on the 18th (albeit with the 10pm time slot - not as an all day Event), but will print on all three days - ie 18/19/20th

  • Why multi day events are shown only on the first day in calendar (in month view)

    Why multi day events are shown only on the first day in calendar (in month view)?

    Figured it out - the event has to be marked as full day event in order to be shown in monthly calendar. Disregard my question.

  • Month view does not show Multi Day events

    I know there has been a few post about this subject, but I've found no answer. Is there a fix for this problem? Multi Day events (Not All Day) only show up on the first day in month view (fine in week view). BUT ... if you print the month view the event shows on all the days, weird. I think I am going to be forced to go to a Microsoft product if this can't be resolved. I is too easy to double book appointments if you think that day is clear. Please help.

    I've just come across this most dangerous of flaws. I wonder how Apple staff manage multiple-day events without missing anything.
    I've submitted the following to iCal Feedback:
    http://www.apple.com/feedback/ical.html
    Events (not all-day) starting on one day and finishing on another do not show up properly in iCal month view. This is because you only show the start time, which is really confusing when trying to organise diaries.
    The iPhone month list view would be a model to sort this out, showing start time on the first day, "Ends" on the last day and "All Day" on intermediary days.
    Please sort this out as this is where Outlook really beats Mac.
