New iCal issues on iPad

after updating to new iCal, most birthdays show up as duplicates. Genius Bar associate was not able to resolve issue and to wait up

I recommend spending some time on a live chat with mobile me support. There are so many factors that affect the calendars, it gets quite complicated. I had a similar issue, but I can't tell you what one thing fixed it up.
Checking settings on my Mac mini and Air, backing up and deleting contacts on the Mac, turning off and on the birthday calendar checkmark in MobileMe, and deleting contacts from iPhone and iPad restoring from MobileMe, is just naming a few of the things we did.
Regards.

  • Ical issue on Ipad

    When entering events into ical on my iPad, the calendar switches.  How do I merge calendars (gmail and iCloud) on ipad and keep dates to one calendar?

    P.S. One more note: Syncing with iTunes is not a good option for me. I have an old MacBook that does not support ICloud. I have been advised by Apple to *never* sync my iCal with iTunes, becuase when I did that the fist time, I duplicated tons of calendars and hand to hand-delete dozens of events, yowza.

  • Can I create a new calendar in ICal on my iPad?

    Can I create a new calendar in ICal on my IPad?

    Tap and hold a file. When it starts to shake, drag it on top of another file. This will create your folder. By the way, you can't create any nested folders (folders inside of folders).

    Ipad Air dead after installing IOS 8.0.2
    I have just downloaded and installed this version of IOS on my Ipad Air and it is DEAD.
    It won't start up.
    When I connect my Ipad to my MacbookPro, Itunes tells me the following:
    "iTunes has detected an iPad in recovery mode. You must restore this iPad before it can be used with iTunes."
    What now? restore? try to remove 8.0.2?
    what a misery!!

  • Safari ios7 issues on iPad Air - can't open new tabs - + sign closes app

    Safari ios7 issues on iPad Air - can't open new tabs or view other tabs.
    The + sign just closes the app every single time!
    In some cases, the back and forward buttons don't work.
    It's driving me crazy becuase if the webpage I'm on opens and ad or tab that I don't want to look at, I can't close it and go back, I have to retype the web address in and find where I was on the site!

    I, too, tried all the fixes...nothing worked.
    Found another thread on this forum and looks like a lot of us are having same problem.
    Next time it happens, go to SETTINGS/GENERAL/ABOUT and check to see it there is a "low memory" incident report.
    If there is:
    See the discussion thread "iPad Air Low Memory Crashes".
    Seems to be common....this could turn into a HUGH issue.

  • Can you set the type of alert in iCal on the iPad?

    I have an iPad (1st generation) with the latest iOS5. I love the new iOS and especially the way that iCloud makes things more seamless between my devices. I do have an issue with iCal, however. When I set an event in iCal in OSX, I can set the alert to be a message, message with sound, email, etc. By default, if I set an event in iCal on my iPad the alert is a message. I can find no way to change this. If there is a way, please tell me.
    Because of this, I never use iCal on iPad to set alerts because I like to use message with sound. This greatly reduces the functionality of iCal on iPad because, for me, it can only be used as a calendar event viewer. Any help would be appreciated. Note: I have contacted apple feedback about this issue.
    In a related, but less important issue, I find that the settings for the timing of the alert are very limited in iCal on iPad. On iCal in OSX one can set the alert time for either the time of the event, or pretty much any amount of time prior to the event. On the iPad, iCal will only let you set it to the day of the event, 1 or 2 days before, or 1 week before the event. A limitation, but not crippling. However, if anyone knows how to set the timing of the event on iPad's iCal with more specificity I would really like to know.
    Thanks!

    Under Settings, Sounds, you can set an alert sound for calendar events.
    For timed events, you can set the alert for a range of times from 5 minutes before upwards (e.g.15 mins, 30 mins, 1 hour). For all-day events, the range is as you described.
    You can set the alert for each event as you create it (or edit it later)
    You can set default alerts for all-day event,s timed events, and birthdays (i.e. different defaults for each type) in Settings, Mail, Contacts and Calendar, default Alerts.
    Does that help?

  • I want to cut and paste iCal entries on iPad.  Have seen a number of questions raised but no definitive answer - is it possible or not?  (I use Bento but that doesn't sync with ICal now so can use that solution)

    No, the camera connection kit only supports the copying of photos and videos to the Photos app, it doesn't support copying content off the iPad. For your second camera instead of the SD reader part of the kit, does the iPad to camera cable not work with it for direct transfer to the iPad ?
    For Lightroom and Nikon software again no - you can only install apps that are available in the iTunes app store on your computer and the App Store app on the iPad, 'normal' PC and Mac (OS X) software are not compatible with the iPad (iOS). There are some apps that perform fairly basic editing functions that are available in the store, but nothing as sophisticated as, for example, Lightroom.

  • Cannot add new iCal events on my iPhone 3G.

    My iPhone 3G has stopped saving new iCal events. I can still set up new events in iCal on my laptop, and they'll sync over to my iPhone, but new events won't save when entered into iCal on my iPhone. Any idea what's wrong and how to fix this?
    BTW, I just got rid of a MobileMe account. I never ended up using MobileMe, so it doesn't seem like that should be the issue here, but I noticed that some other folks have had iCal sync issues with MobileMe, so I thought I'd add that info.

    In other words, it's hacked.
    Sorry, you can't get help here.
    Say for an instance, that it wasn't hacked. Would you suggest to just wipe and restore it?

  • How do I set an event to repeat every 4 weeks on iCal on my ipad 2?

    How do I schedule an event to repeat every 4 weeks in iCal on my iPad 2?

  • HT1296 After downloading iTunes 11, my calendar on my iMac (OS X 10.6.8) does not sync with iCal on my iPad 2.  Why is this?

    After downloading iTunes 11, my calendar on my iMac (OS X 10.6.8) does not sync with iCal on my iPad 2.  Why is this?

    Ok, here's what seems to have worked....but will need to monitor to see if this stays "stable".
    1)  As suggested by King_Penguin in another Discussion thread  [apple support > iPad > Using iPad > Discussions]  (https://discussions.apple.com/message/15911962#15911962), I turned off iPhoto startup on the iPhone.  Then ejected iPhone from USB.
    2)  Reconnected iPhone via USB.  iTunes did not start up.  Started up iTunes manually.  Went to Summary page for iPhone, unchecked the "open iTunes" option, selected APPLY button.  Let iTunes run its application process.
    3)  Then checked the "open iTunes" option.  Selected APPLY button.  Got a dialog box asking if I wanted "iTunes Helper" to be installed; selected YES.  Let iTunes run its application process. Ejected iPhone.  Closed out iTunes.  Reconnected iPhone via USB.  AND iTunes STARTED UP AUTOMATICALLY (yay!).  Let iTunes do some backup and sync'ing.  Ejected iPhone.  Closed out iTunes.
    4)  Connected iPad via USB (on computer).  AND iTunes STARTED UP AUTOMATICALLY (yay!).
    I don't know for sure that the iPhoto "automatic launch" was causing the interference, but it seems like the "uncheck/check" the "open iTunes" option seemed to re-set the problem that I encountered.  I don't want to say for sure that this issue is fixed, but it appears to be under control for the moment.
    Thanks to everyone for your thoughts and assistance.  Maybe this info will help someone else out now that it's in the forums/discussions.

  • Some images do not display in browser, iPad Air 2.  When I load a page with several jpgs (one 1920x720, then 8-10 800x800px), only the first few are shown.  Behaviour is similar for Safari and Chrome. Website issue or iPad?

    I have just bought an iPad, partly to check that my websites work OK on mobile devices.   When I load a page with several jpgs (e.g. one 1920x720, then 8-10 800x800px), only the first few are shown.  If I remove the large one, that sometimes fixes the problem. Behaviour is similar for Safari and Chrome. Is this a website issue or iPad?

    Sorry, I didn't make myself clear.  I'm using a new Wordpress theme that is meant to be responsive.  The large image is for a header, than you scroll down to see the rest, one by one.  Some one the pages work OK on my iPad, typically the old ones where the maximum image size was 500 x 500.  It's the new pages and those I've updated that are causing the problem.  On the iPad the large image loads, then a couple of the small ones become visible as I scroll down, but then darkness (rather like my knowledge level).
    Being new to IOS and iPads, I'm trying to work out whether I should be looking here, or amongst the Wordpress stuff for a solution.
    Here's the website with its new theme: http://www.new-zealand-pictures.com/

  • How do I address SSL security issue on iPad 1

    This new security issue discovered recently had my wife and I getting busy updating our phones, great now I have a possible bigger issue. How do I address this SSL issue on my iPad 1 running iOS 5.1.1 . So far apple does not seem to be releasing anything for us iPad 1 folks.
    • Does this mean Apple does not care?
    • Are they trying to leverage us into newer iPads?
    • Is there a iOS 5.1.2 in the works?
    • Or does it mean our iPad 1's are not affected by this breach.
    Wish I had the coin to just go out and buy a new iPad but my disabled income does not have room for that, the one I have now was given to me by a very good friend and business owner before I was diagnosed. I use my iPad for virtually everything needing computing power. I really need to figure this out as I do Alot of shopping online.

    Since Apple does not discuss their customers or potential security breaches, I would assume that you are not affected.  My assumption is based solely on the fact that if there were an issue with your device and security, either an update would be made available or an announcement would come from Apple advising you to migrate to a newer device.
