Multiplying entries, all-day event issues, and freezing

I've been having quite a few issues with iCal since I upgraded to Snow Leopard (but I don't regret it).
1. Several of my all day events have been multiplied, so that they are entered in 3, 4, even 5 times.
2. Many all-day events that were set to last only one day now span two or three.
3. Whenever I try and access December of 2010, iCal stops responding, and causes almost all programs to freeze until I force quit iCal.
Please help!

I've been seeing new problems with iCal since moving to Snow Leopard too. If, when the alarm for a repeating event comes up I tell I call to remind me later, I will get multiple reminders instead. Also, for repeating event sometimes the alarm will not repeat, but instead get changed to only alert for a single day.

Daylight savings all-day events issues in updated iCal for iPad

After purchasing new MBP, Genius Bar told me to update to new iCal. I have noticed that any all-day events taking place on the date that daylight savings begins (3/13/11 i.e.) lasts on iPad's iCal for two days. When I attempt to edit, event still displays for two days. Guessing it is because that day technically lasts for only 23 hours. Genius Bar consultant had no suggestions for a remedy. This error appears for 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014 daylight savings beginning dates. The error doesn't seem to be a problem for the MBP or my iPhone.

I've experienced the same problem. I set up a recurring one day event on the first of each month - come April 1 in 2012 the event is spread over 2 days (the end of daylight savings time in Australia) from April onwards. I can muck around with the event and have it set at one day from April1 onwards in 2012 but there's a recurring event bug related to daylight savings. I wonder if any alarms people have set for that day will again experience the problems from the past?

How do you disable all-day event notifications?

I've already read the various threads about the issues with all-day events disappearing from the Today view and only appearing in the Notifications. However, I am having an issue when trying to disable all-day event notifications. I currently use my all day events from my work calendar (Lotus Notes 8.5) that is synched to my phone. I have disabled the "Notify Me" option within Lotus Notes and changed the default all day event notification on my phone to "None". The problem is that this has not disabled any all day event notification and I still get notified every night at midnight for the event. This didn't happen on iOS 6 or any of the iOS 7 beta versions. Is this something that can be fixed? Thanks!

the Automation quick access should be off by default. I don't think this is what will do it for you, but here is a description of it, Page 320 of the manual
Automation Quick Access
This feature makes Track Automation extremely fast and simple if you only have one hardware MIDI controller available (one fader on your MIDI keyboard, or maybe just the Modulation wheel). You can use this single hardware controller to access (and automate) the currently visible Automation parameter of the selected Track in the Arrange window.
since it is midi messages that you do not want to send from your controller, I think you need to go to song settings an filter out incomming midi messages. File>song settings>midi>imput filter
but really any messages being sent should only effect the channel you are playing. I am assuming you are playing one of logics instruments for live performance.

Displaying more than 1 all-day event per day

I am going through the laborious process of entering data on my new iMac having previously shunned iCal on my MBP. All seems to be progressing well until...
In the first month I edited, 2 all-day events coincided and they displayed perfectly. However a few months later the same 2 all-day events coincided and, despite them being identical to the previous occurrence, only 1 event shows correctly and the second appears as 3 small dots. I have searched high and low for an answer with no luck. I have deleted them and re-entered in case there was an unseen error - same result. I cannot figure out why one day shows correctly and another not ? Any ideas or explanations ? Thanks, in advance.

I have several multiple entries on the same date and they all display in the calendar on the Iphone. This might be because I recorded these entries on the phone and not the computer.

LG Extravert - Verizon Mobile Email - Google Calendar - All Day Events showing on wrong day

I have an LG Extravert. I installed and setup the Verizon Mobile Email application. I added my gmail account. I successfully pulls in my gmail calendar - BUT any of the events that as "All Day" events in google end up displaying on the wrong day on the LG Extravert. If I drill into the event on the phone - it displays start and end times for the event. Why does it do anything with time for an all day event? and if it does (for some reason) still use times - why are the times off? The timezone setup on my phone and google accounts all match.
Please Advise...

I am using the features of the Mobile Email application... I couldn't find a way with the Extravert to integrate directly with the calendar application.
If a create an all day event on the phone... it looks ok in google... but when the phone alerts me of the event... it says the Start Time is 1:00 AM. It seems like the Mobile Email Applications calendaring is not able to correctly handle All Day events.

Calendar All Day Events, Calculated Columns, Timezone and DayLight Savings - Issues

Hi
I have a calendar where I am trying to display in one column using a calculated field (TitleWithTimes):
Start time (only display time) - End Time (only display time) : Title i.e. 00:00 - 23:59 : Test Event
So I add an all day event to the calendar for this month (February), it appears correctly:
i.e. 00:00 - 23:59 : Test Event 1
I am based in the UK so my time zone is currently GMT/UTC.
However if I add any all day events to the calendar in April when the time zone switches to GMT+1, the start and end times appear incorrect.
i.e 01:00 - 00:59 : Test Event 2
Field: TitleWithTimes
=TEXT([Start Time],"hh:mm")&" - "&TEXT([End Time],"hh:mm")&" : "&Title
This issue only occurs with ALL Day Events when the events are scheduled for a in the period of the year where the Time Zone becomes GMT + 1. My regional settings everywhere in SharePoint are correct as are all the SharePoint servers.
I have done lots of searching and troubleshooting to try and resolve this issue but it appears nobody has found a reliable fix for this issue with calculated fields, all day events and time zones? Does anyone have any ideas of workarounds?
Thanks

Hi,
I understand that you had issues about the calculated field in calendar.
This is a reproducible issue, when creating an all day event, the calculate column based on the Start Time/End Time is different from the original column value. The date is stored in SQL in GMT time and is displayed in SP in the correct time in lists. So
returning the start time in a calculated column for an all day event returns the start time in GMT time, which is not the current time most likely.
As a workaround, you can regenerate the calculate column to add one day/minus one day based on whether the event is an all day event, or create a workflow to copy the start time column to your created date/time column.
Here is a similar thread for your reference:

OS5-Issue with reminders/alerts of all-day events

Hi there,
in our company we are used to set up anniversaries and birthdays as all-day events with a reminder at 08.00 AM in Lotus Notes which are synchronized together with individual calendar entries to the Blackberries. After upgrading the first Bold 9000's to OS5, the alerts for birthdays and anniversaries don't go off anymore.
The Calendar entries are configured in Lotus Notes as all-day events with a reminder 8 hours after the start time (In the BB-Calendar these are shown as negative values). In the calendar-overview these entries are on the OS5 devices now shown without the bell-icon. If I open one of these events the reminder is configured with a negative value.
Although it is and was never configurable directly via the blackberry-devices (where you can only set the time the alarm goes off in advance, means positive values) , it always worked with all OS 4.x devices.
But it seems that with OS5 it's not possible to remind this way anymore.
Unfortunately, it's no option to put birthdays and anniversaries at for example 8 o'clock in the morning with a reminder at the same time, because the users don't want to have (sometimes multiple) events within their day schedule.
Could someone please verify that this is a OS issue. The used OS is 5.0.0.681, Lotus version is 8.0.
If this issue persists with all 5.x versions we are forced to downgrade back to 4.x.
Thanks in advance

All Day Events ( banner events ) will not show in iCal and Web Cal

I have iCal Server working for the most part. I am having issues with the Web Calendar not showing the all day events that are made in iCal on that group calendar. Non-All Day events show on both the iCal on the client computer and on the Web Calendar. Also events can be added and edited by multiple users.
If I make and all day event on the Web Calendar, it does not show up on the iCal client. If I make an all day event on the iCal client it does not show in the Web Calendar.
I made a banner event on the Webcalendar. One user could see the event in his iCal, I could not. He changed the status to "All Day Event" then the event disappeared from the Web Calendar, and showed up in my iCal.

Same problem here! Apple should really get their act together if they are serious about groupware and their server software; all-day events are a crucial part of a calendaring system!
I wonder if Apple actually use their own software? I can't imagine that they'd let this one go on unsolved for this long

Problems with mobile me ical all day events sync between desktop and iphone

I just noticed all of my all day events show up one day earlier on my iphone than what they are on ical on my desktop (which is correct). This includes both subscribed events and one I have entered. Any ideas on a fix, it is rather annoying at this point.

Hi. Sorry I don't have the answer. Just another person with the same problem. Must be a bug that needs fixing. Thanks for pointing out that the List view works. Although, when I click on the individual diary entries from the list view the event details show up the incorrect date and time. My entries are all 19 hours out. So an entry that should be Monday at 1pm, shows up as Sunday at 6pm. Very annoying.
Anyone else who can help with this problem?

Nokia and iCal: all-day events

Whenever I use iSync to sync iCal and my E65, all-day events are sent to the phone as "meetings" that last from from 12:00am to 11:59pm instead of being synced as "notes". This is very annoying! Does anyone know of a solution? Here are my software versions:
Mac OS X: 10.4.10
iSync: 2.4
iCal: 2.0.5

I researched and researched, and it looks like Mac users are out of luck on this issue. Everything seemed to go wrong when Nokia changed to SyncML to sync their calendar and address book databases. Seems like Nokia & Apple would have resolved this issue by now. From what I've heard, it's been a problem for a long time.
So, I'm giving up for now until someone has an answer. I'm only going to put calendar events on my phone and just use that as my main calendar.
If anyone's interested, there is new software for S60 called "Handy Calendar" by Epocware. It is an amazing replacement for the built-in Nokia calendar app. The one big improvement is that you can make all-day events repeat, unlike on Nokia's calendar. It uses the same database as Nokia's calendar, so you can switch between the 2 with no problems. It also has a nice, clean, good-looking interface. Unfortunately it uses Nokia's SyncML as well, so it doesn't help with iCal.
Oh, well... waiting for a fix...

E65 and iCal: all-day events

Whenever I use iSync to sync iCal and my E65, all-day events are sent to the phone as "meetings" that last from from 12:00am to 11:59pm instead of being synced as "notes". I've tried everything I can think of, including syncing to Google Calendars online instead. I get the same issue. This is very annoying! Does anyone know of a solution? Or does anyone know of a different calendar program I can use?
Here are my software versions:

Calendar display issues for "All Day Events" coming from Exchange Server

My problem is with the display of All Day events. I'm running a 3gs, Outlook 2007 on winxp, connected to a Exchange 2007 server. When an all day event is put in for multiple days the phone calendar displays it as starting at midnight going to midnight, and sometimes wont display the event on the list view on the phone. I can correct the display by editing it on the phone and making it all day there, but then the category I assigned the event in outlook goes away in outlook. All day single day events work just fine. Any suggestions?

Sort of same issue:
All day events scheduled from Entourage display incorrectly on iPhone/iPad as non-all-day events (which block out entire day/multiple days)
All day events scheduled from iPhone/iPad show up correctly in Entourage as all-day events, but incorrectly with an *extra day* added.

Opening and ordering all-day events in iCal

I only use all-day events. When I hit Command-N, it is completely random (so far as I can tell) whether an all-day or a scheduled event field appears. Is there some way to make the default for Command-N be an all-day event field? Also, how can one order the all-day events? They seem to place themselves randomly in the list and change order from day to day.

I have the very same issue. I solved it once somehow but now it's back. I use Plaxo to sync between Outlook-iCal-iPhone and maybe that somehow has confused the phone. Let me know if you find any solutions. I will do the same.

Issue: all day events arent shown in year view

Hi,
the normal behavior would indicate an event in bold in the year view. but this only happens on days where normal events (no all day events) have been set up.
i cross checked it with a 2012 client. working as expected. all day events show up in the year view.
excerpt from the manual:
Code:
Changing How All-Day Events Are Displayed
You can change the way that all day events are accepted into your calendar by using the Options menu.
1. Click Tools > Options, double-click Calendar, then click the General tab.
2. In the Accept Options area, click the drop-down menu located beneath Accept All-Day-Events I send to myself as, then choose the option you want.
3. Click OK.
sry, but i dont see how i can change the way how all day events are displayed.
is there still a need to copy the view files to the groupwise server?
thx

The setting you quote is actually to determine how all-day events that you
create for yourself are handled (for any future event you create). By default,
all-day events have a display of "free" (as opposed to "busy" or "tentative" or
"out of office"). If your calendar is "free", then there is no bolded
indication that you have something scheduled in the year view.
If you look at an all day even in your calendar, you will see a box under
recurrence that says either "free/busy/out of office/tentative". In order for
an all day event (or any event really) to bold the calendar number, this value
cannot be "free".
There is no need to copy views to the Post Office any longer. Views are in a
fixed location on the server (/opt/novell/groupwise/agents/data) and the POA
always has access to them.

Multiple lines of event title and location failed to show for All Day event in SharePoint 2010 Calendar

I have a calendar with SPD workflow to display multiple lines for Title, Attendees, Location.
1. Created a custom columne "Breaklines" and set to "Multiple lines of text"
2. Set Monthly View to display the "Breaklines"
3. in SPD I created a workflow like this:
4. On the Calendar page, I used a javascript to remove the <br/>
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.10.2.min.js"
type="text/javascript"></script><script
type="text/javascript">
function updateCalendarWeekday()
   $('.ms-acal-title').each(function(){
    var str = $(this).html();
    str = str.replace(/</g,
"<");
    str = str.replace(/>/g,
">");
    $(this).html(str);
_spBodyOnLoadFunctionNames.push('calendarEventLinkIntercept');
// hook into the existing SharePoint calendar load function
function calendarEventLinkIntercept()
   var OldCalendarNotify4a
= SP.UI.ApplicationPages.CalendarNotify.$4a;
   SP.UI.ApplicationPages.CalendarNotify.$4a
= function ()
      OldCalendarNotify4a();
      updateCalendarWeekday();
}</script><style>
.ms-acal-item
                HEIGHT:
60px !important
.ms-acal-summary-itemrow
                HEIGHT:
85px !important
}</style>
Everything works fine, except that when the All Day event is checked, the display screwed like this:
I guess that when the event is All Day Event, the Start Time and End Time is not filled by the user (although they show in the form as 12:00 am -11:59PM), so the top line space is now used to display Title and Location. Since the Top Space for
Start and End Time is a single line, it displays everything on one line. Plus the script does not act on this space.
Does anyone know a fix for this problem?
Thanks for any tips!

Is there a way to modify the javescript so that it also works in the "start-end time" space?
