Multiple entries from Birthday Calendar

So, I have this really weird issue with the Brithday's calendar.
When I have the Birthday calendar turned on (using the birthday's found in AddressBook) iCal shows each birthday as three different entries. Not on different days, and not for different times, just three separate 'all-day' events on the particular birthday. This is not for just one or two contacts, but for ALL contacts that have a birthday.
Any guesses as to why this is happening or how I can fix it?

Hi,
I wrote an application called iCal Dupe Deleter to fix this sort of problem. See www.nhoj.co.uk/icaldupedeleter
The application is free to use, but I ask for donations if you find it useful.
Best wishes

Calendar app contains multiple entries for birthday calendar and Apple US Holiday's calendar.

After the most recent update, my calendar app began showing duplicate entries for all of my calendars (google, birthday and US Holidays). I deleted all of the google calendars from my phone and then added each calendar back to the phone one at a time. After doing this, there were no more duplicate entries for the google calendars. However, I have been unable to fix the duplicate entries for the Apple birthday calendar or the Apple US Holidays subscribed calendar. I tried restoring the iPhone, but that didn't work. I then tried to delete the birth date from various phone contacts, but even though I had removed the contact's birthday, the duplicate birthday entries on the calendar remained. I tried changing the contacts' birth date (i.e. altering the month or year), but that didn't update on the calendar either. I'm using an iPhone 5, ios 7.1.1. I do not sync any calendars with iCloud and when I show the birthdays calendar in iCloud, there are not any duplicate entries. Any suggestions?

Literally, no. You will not find a single identical application for all. Apps that are written for the iPhone and iPad have optimizations specific to those platforms, while computer programs will be at least slightly different as they will have optimized features specific to them.
You could look throught the APp store for something you like for the iOS devices, then check the developer's site to see if they also make something equivalent or near so for desktop and laptop computers.
The best you can find is separate applications (albeit maybe from one developer and designed to work as companion apps) that share data seemlessly somehow, but none will be without glitches at times - just the nature of anything that tries to syncronize multiple devices frequently over the internet.
I use Week Calendar on my iPhone and iPad, Calendar in OS X, and Outlook at work. I do not use iCloud to sync calendars, but use separate Google Calendars for personal, and work calendars, linked through my google accounts to those programs on all my devices. Its worked pretty well for the past 3 or 4 years for me. However, I do use google sync for the Outlook calendar, and you cannot get that any longer (google killed it off, but keeps it working for legacy users).
That's just my setup, but no single app or program exists that I could use for all that (or even just for the Apple machine's alone).

Multiple entries from iCal calendar being displayed, why?

My Trainingpeaks account is synced with calendar using iCal. Recently multiple entries fro the same vent are being displayed. How do I stop this?

Probably because of iCloud since I assume you started it up on both Macbook and a mobile device.

Multiple entries in my calendar

Hello:
I have some how gotten multiple entries into my calendar. Thanksgiving day has 6 entries, Mother's day about 5 - that kind of thing. I did NOT import these dates multiple times. Events I have created, either recurring or single, have also some how duplicated themselves.
I do not share a calendar with any one, it's just my stuff. The calendar is so messed up, what I'd like to do is some how select everything going forward and delete it all and start again. Deleting everything one at a time will drive me postal.
Thanks!

Cannot sync anymore new entries from my Calendar in Outlook03 to my IPhone.

I cannot sync new entries from my Calendar in Outlook 2003 to my Iphone3g. It syncs my calendar up to a certain date. All new entries since a week aren't sync. The bizarre thing all changes made to my contacts & notes do sync properly. I have reinstalled ITUNES, restored my computer to January 27, Restored my IPhoneG3. Checked and rechecked the info on ITUNE. Checked Outlook03, followed the steps Apple gives to sync.
Anyone got an idea?
Thanks Daniel

TS3274 All entries from my Calendar have disappeared from before 8 August 2013. I cannot restore them. Help!

All entries from my Calendar from before 8 August have disappeared. Very frustrating as this is a record for the year. How can I restore them? I tried to re-enter for 3 August and when I clicked Done, nothing appeared.

Hi
i am trying to delete multiple entries from table while keeping some data.

Plant                            Item
US101                         777

I want to keep the rows where the item is 777 and 888 for plant US101 and keep delete the rest data
I wrote the following code
Delete source_package where Plant = 'US101' and Item NE '777' or '888'.
but all the rows get deleted.
I tried deleting single row and it worked.
Delete source_package where Plant = 'US101' and Item NE '777' .
How can I delete multiple rows.

Contacts producing multiple entries as does calendar . How to stop and fix please.

Contacts producing multiple entries as does Calender. How to stop and fix pls?

ok easiest way it to restore to factory setting and start from there. When you go to do your first sync you don’t “sync contacts or calendar”. When you add mobile me onto your Ipad select all the services that you want to enable and then mobile me will keep everything in sync.
If you need futher steps let me know

How can I remove remaining entries from grub menu?

Grub2 menu entries are created by a set of scripts in /etc/grub.d
Your first 2 entries are standard for arch and are generated by the 10_archlinux script. The 10_archlinux script is distributed by arch. It exists because the standard 10_linux script does not always create reliable menu entries for arch.
Your other linux entries are generated by the 10_linux script which is distributed by grub upstream.
Your windows entry is generated by the os-prober script. That can just be left alone.
To sort out the redundant linux entries you could try disabling either of the linux scripts and regenerating the menu.
Alternatively, you could disable both linux scripts and define your menu entries manually in the 40_custom script. The syntax for custom menu entries is similar to that of grub legacy. See the grub wiki article for info.
Hope this helps!

I can't view someone elses calendar entry from my calendar in WebUI.

When using one of the standard profiles there is a Calendar entry on the Nav Bar. If I choose this and then choose the 'Open Colleague's Calendar ' option a search screen is provided to find the other person. I can find them and then clilck on the result to view their calendar, however, after doing this a message saying ' The calendar of employee Mr. XXXXXXX cannot be displayed'.
Does anyone know why this might be. The problem appears using all the profiles, and I have checked SU53 and there seems to be no errors that I can detect. However, the error appeared while in the WebUI and I ran SU53 in the GUI sessions. So I'm not 100% sure I'm getting the correct results.

Hello Jason, did you resolved this ? I am having the same problem, if you did, please share your solution, I´ll appreciate it.

HR Processes and Forms, Delimit multiple entries from IT0014

Hello,
I am trying to delimit multiple records in infotype 0014 with the backend service SAP_PA. I am only able to delimit the first record of this infotype while the rest of the records remain unchanged. If anyone has any info on how to delimit all records I would greatly appreciate the advice.
Here is how I have my config set up:
Field Name - Operation - Infotype - Subtype - Screen Structure - Field - Record - Data Element
I0014_PERNR - Delete - 0014 - * - HCMT_BSP_PA_US_R0014 - PERNR - * - PERNR_D
Thanks in advance,
Jim

Using "*" for the subtype on an infotype of Time Constraint 3 is a known problem. I wrote about it in my "gotcha" blog about HCM P&F with the specific code it even fails on. There is a recent patch out to fix/address this, but the number escapes me (just search on notes for PA-AS and you will see lots!)
Past that, a LOT of the operations that SAP_PA handles poorly or not at all (ie. time constraints other than 1 and 2) and/or when significant "pre-business logic" is needed (good ol' IT0041 comes to mind!), I now have learned to handle in "follow-up" custom workflow tasks that will trigger a custom function module I write to handle all those "odd" operations myself. It works VERY nicely like that and uses the same kind of coding/methodology as SAP's code. Currently, our team is working on getting it to work through an Advanced Generic Service. When that happnes, it will be sweet! That means, we can pretty much do ALL the work needed in our AGS....not in a custom workflow task or some convaluted jumble of genercis services prior to a SAP_PA call, or none of that anymore.

Is it possible to select multiple dates from a calendar?

Hi All,
I am looking for a way of somehow selecting more than one date in the Apex calendar. What I am after is something like in Outlook you can select 5 days for one action.
Is something like that (or simmilar) is possible with Apex?
Regards,
Pawel.

Boy, this is something we're struggling with too. So we'd like to hear others' ideas on this also.
thank you,

How do I remove a person's age from birthday calendar

With the update to Lion, iCal seems to compute a person's age from the date entered the Address Book. I want to remove this and just show the person's name in iCal.

I tried deleting the year in Address Book, and it would ALWAYS come back. As if iCloud insisted on correcting me.
SO, I tried making the change via the Address Book WEB interface at iCloud.com -- and it worked. Still, it's annoying -- and a bit worrysome -- that edits I'm making on my computer or iPhone aren't being integrated into the Cloud. Isn't that the whole point??

Multiple entries in Calendar

Is anyone else having this problem?
My contacts are fine, but I noticed multiple entries in my Calendar on my Touch iPod. In the past, I've seen multiple entries with iCal (I think it came from being synced with my blackberry and/or .mac - but it seems to be working fine for the past month or so), but iCal looks fine.
It's really bizarre, because it almost looks like the further you go back in time, the more duplications for an event (reoccurring) are found. If you try and Delete an occurrence on the iPod, it only allows you to delete from that point forward - but ones from the previous year/month are still there. The starting date for an occurence on the iPod is always on the day you are checking, so it's not like it's set to the first time you entered it or something so you can't go back to the first instance.
ALSO.
I noticed that some all day events span over to the following day on the iPod, but are fine in iCal.

You know - now that you mentioned it - I did see a WHOLE lotta dos - but didn't think anything of it.
I've since restored the thing and elected to not sync the calendar.
One thing that did get fixed - was mix-matched album artwork... podcasts, music, even videos were all getting their album artwork messed up - 1.1.2 seems to have fixed that... mind you... I've had to do a factory restore so many times because of this bloody calendar thing; perhaps I should give it more time before I declare that part is ok.

Remove Calendar Entries from iPod

I've unchecked the Syncronize with Microsoft Outlook option within iTunes, but the calendar entries are still on my iPod. How do I get rid of them?

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
With your iPod connected to your computer and updating with iTunes open My Computer, open the drive representing the iPod and delete the entries from the Calendar folder.
