My ical is annoying !!! .... can someone please help

my ical is acting so weird..
when i click a date to add an event.,, instead of popping up a normal box.... the box became in black... so i can't really see the details in the box.
also.. sometimes... even i click to the date.... it doesn't allow me to add an event.
it also happened before that the ical icon in the dock... its color change weirdly..
moreover.... probably this is a dump question.. but it really bothers me a lot.
i dunno why there is an "extra" ical shortcut (ical icon) in document file.
the icon bothers me, so i want to delete it... however, if i delete the extra shortcut (icon) , i will delete the whole program.....
HELP ME.... !!!!!!!!

anyleung,
One of the first things to try is to "refresh" the com.apple.iCal.plist file. You will find the com.apple.iCal.plist file in your Macintosh HD/Users/yourusername/Library/Preferences Folder. Drag the file to your Desktop, log out/in or restart and check iCal for normal behavior.

What information are your provided in the Info window when you click on the file and use the (⌘ + I) keyboard shortcut?
Is there a little arrow on the bottom left of the icon?

  • My Iphone 5 has gone blank, I can not see anything. Restore with itunes has not worked either. Can someone please help?

    Hi I recently upgraed to iOS 6.1 on my Iphone 5. After the upgrade, it was all good. Over the weekend I went Austria for Ski. While taking the photos, I simply locked the phone and kept it my pocket as I had to go. After sometime when I opened my phone, I could hardly see anything. I tried to unlock with pin and tried restarting with great difficulty. But nothing worked. Coming back home today, I have tried restore the software and still no luck. I have tried restore almost 5 to 6 times, but the screen is still blank. I dont know if what state it is in and I can not do anything to fix it. I am very annoyed with the support service as they can not be reached on Sunday evening.
    I could manage to book a call tomorrow but I have lot of work over next few days at work. Can someone please help how to fix this issue now? Any suggestions will be much apperciated.
    Thanks,

  • Attempting to install iTunes Version 10.5 and getting Invalid Signature. Can someone please help???

    I am attempting to install iTunes Version 10.5. I am getting the following messages...
    "Files shared by these updates" has an invalid signature. It will not be installed.
    "iTunes" has an invalid signature. It will not be installed.
    "Safari 5" has an invalid signature. It will not be installed.
    I somehow got around this annoying "invalid signature" problem before by installing the iTunes update through the Apple site.
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    When I tried that, now I get...
    "The installer encountered errors before iTunes could be configured. Errors occurred during installation. Your system has not been modified. Please run the installer again, or click Finish to Exit"
    All this to get the latest iPhone software. And every blessed time I go to Sync my iPhone, I run into iTunes issue on my Dell PC here. I guess PC and Mac just cannot play well together.
    Can someone PLEASE help me out here???
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Hi. I also had this problem when trying to connect a new iPhone 4S & it needed iTunes 10.5. Went to the Apple website as update section of iTunes was not getting any luck - went to downloads section of Apple website & downloaded the whole iTunes 10.5 program as though I did not have it in the first place (& also downloaded the programs for Quicktime 7.7.1 & Safari 4.0.3) ie not just the upgrades. I created a restore point in my Windows XP in case it all went pear shaped & then went ahead & installed all 3 programs. Opened iTunes at the end & all my music, apps, movies were all still there & now the new iPhone 4S works perfectly with the iTunes. Hope this helps.

  • I miss and erased all my music off my ipad and now its freaking out. I can't get it to re-sync. Can someone please help me. I want my music back.

    Okay, doing my best to ignore the EXTREMELY annoying font you chose to use.
    Is there a reason why you did not create a backup of your media and other important files before switching from Vista?
    It is the users responsibility to back up their media, it is NOT Apple's responsibility.
    When you purchase CD's or DVD's, if you lose them, you repurchase them.  Same deal with digital media.
    If you have a backup of your media, simply copy the files from the backup to your computer.
    If you still have access to your old computer, simply copy the files from it to your new computer.

  • I tried updating my iPod 5th gen to iOS 8 but it only shows me a picture of the iTunes logo and a charger at the bottom, I'm not sure what this means or what I need to do. Can someone please help me?

    After restoring to factory settings/new iPod you will then have to restore from backup
    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes       
    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:                         
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

  • My MacBook Pro iTunes movie purchase is not showing in iTunes store movie purchases nor does it show on my iPad or Apple TV.  Can someone please help me with a solution?  Thanks.

      First of all, I live in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. Sometimes, I use a VPN to search on the web here. I purchased Toy Story 3 on my MacBook Pro 2011 OS/X - Lion through iTunes.  I initially had trouble downloading it which may be due to being on and off the VPN but after a while it finally downloaded and shows up in my iTunes library on my MacBook. 
      Under my Apple ID account (which is the only Apple ID account I have), I look under purchase history and it shows that I paid for Toy Story which is where I got my Order # from.  But if you go to the iTunes Store then to the Quick Links then click on Purchased, under all my Movies, it does NOT show Toy Story 3 as one of my movies.
      Now when I go to my iPad (3rd gen.), Toy Story 3 does not show up under purchased movies (all or not on my iPad).  It does not show up on my Apple TV as well.  If I want to have Toy Story 3 on my iPad or Apple TV, then it says I have to purchase it again.
      I have searched for help via Apple support communities but so far none of their solutions have worked for me.  I have tried logging off iTunes & App Store on iPad and also shutting down the iPad.  I also made sure that under iTunes Preferences>Store that iTunes in the Clouds purchases is checked. Can someone please help me with this?  Your consideration is greatly appreciated.  Thanks.

    Thanks King_Penguin for taking time to read and reply. 
    I just purchased this movie on Thursday, May 15, so just a few days ago.  I have never had any trouble whatsoever since I have been in Vietnam.  I have downloaded several movies and even music and they have all synced to my respected Apple products except for this purchase. 
    Sorry, I don't quite understand what you mean by studios and different versions.  Could you please explain? 
    I checked my purchased list in my purchase history under my account and there are no hidden items.

    I guess I will wrap this up. I have abandoned iPhoto and viewing my Photo Streams using it and moved to Adobe products (Bridge + PS). So that's that.

    Hi bodegakc,
    If you have the serial number then please use the below mentioned link to download the product you are looking for .
    CS5.5
    Also before installing Please go to Applications-->Utilities--> Adobe installers and if there is any uninstaller for CS5.5 , you can remove it and do a fresh install.
    You can also use creative cloud cleaner tool before installing.
    Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6
    Thanks

  • I keep getting an error can someone please help

    i am trying to develop a web application using tomcat. i have a servlet that will not compile because of two things. firstly, it says that package beans does not exist and secondle it gives an error becuase im using a user bean here to set some attributes but it keeps saying it cannot resolve symbol User. can someone please help me sort this out. thanks

    You need to package the bean classes in the proper package (in your case beans), and then place them in WEB-INF/classes/<package dirs>.
    Then you need to import the classes in the JSP.
    Cheers!

  • HT201412 can someone please help me out of nowhere my iphone went fuzzy then completely turned off i have tried charging it and it still wont work and itunes wont pick it up and it wont start up nothing please help me

    You may not get a response as you are shouting at everyone.
    All caps indicates shouting, is considered rude, and is difficult to read.
    Many will not read such posts.
    Try turning off you caps lock and asking again.

  • My iphone 4 won't connect to my mac. It says that I need to install the lastest version of itune (11.1) but when I try to update itunes it says that I have the current version 10.6.3. Can someone please help!

    Hi,
    My iphone 4 won't connect to my mac book, it says that I need to install to latest version of itunes 11.1. When I go to itunes and try to update, it says that I have the latest version (10.6.3). Can someone please help me!
    thanks

    You are probably running OS 10.4 or 10.5 on a PPC Mac.  No version of  iTunes higher than 10.6.3 is available for these older Macs.  I have the same problem, and while I can still use the PPC to sync my iPod, it can't be used to sync an iPhone 4 or higher.  The only solution, as I discovered after upgrading to the iPhone 4, is to buy a newer Mac.  I was able to get a 2006 MacBook running Lion for under $300, and that has been a lifesaver.

  • Please help me! I imported my pics to iphoto but I can't open them now. I can't see them on full Screen/edit them like before. All I get is a exclamation mark when I double click on them. I don't have copies, can someone please help me?

    I imported all my pics to Iphoto and I can't open/edit them now. When I double click on them, I only get an exclamation mark. Please help me I don't have copies. I tried burning them to a cd but it didn't work. Can someone please help me?

    The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
    What version of iPhoto? Assuming 09 or later...
    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .
