No Option to Change Default Calendar

I've been struggling with this and can't find an answer anywhere. On both my iPhone (3GS running iOS 5) and my iPad (first gen running iOS 5), there is no option for me to change the default calendar in Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendar. The only options under the Calendars heading on both devices are New Invitation Alerts, Sync, Time Zone Support, and Default Alert Times. How can I get the Default Calendar option to appear?
Thanks for any help!

For what it's worth, I figured it out.
In addition to my iCloud calendars, I subscribed to CalDAV calendars from my office (from Snow Leopard Server). For some reason, you can't set or change a default calendar unless you turn off the CalDAV calendars. At that point, the option to set a default calendar magically appears. I set the default I wanted, then turned the CalDAV calendars back on, at which time the option disappeared again, but fortunately left my selected calendar as the default.
Hope this helps someone!

Changing default Calendar alarms in Mavericks' Calendar?

Is there any way that I can change the default Calendar alarm to email?
I don't use the "pop-up" on screen alarm, which appears to be the default, because that relies on me being in front of the iMac at the time whereas I can read email alarms on any computer (even at Client's premises) wherever I am, and having to remeber to change every single appointment to "email to" is a positive nuisance.
I seem to recall this was possible a couple of generations ago in iCal on Snow Leopard but the option was inexplicably removed in a no doubt "improving" update!
Surely Apple should provide the option to change the default alarm to personal preference?
Or am I being stupid and overlooking something obvious?
Thanks in advance.

As a long-time Apple user, Apple evangelist and stockholder (I bought the stock when it was $41/share), I'm really annoyed with the numerous issues in the latest version of OSX. In all the years I've used Macs, this is the first time I really feel like their new version is simply not ready for primetime.
And it's not just the inablility to customize alerts in Calendar. The iWork app suite (Numbers, Pages, etc.), also has major issues, e.g., no more initial caps when typing.
Many of these changes are reportedly due to Apple's desire to increase cross-device and iCloud capability between the Mac and various IOS devices. Apple is also touting the fact that the iWork suite is now free and supposedly simpler.
Don't get me wrong. OSX 10.9 Mavericks is extremely stable. And there are many new features which certainly improve my overall computing experience. But a major unintended consequence of these "upgrades" and "improvements" is the sacrifice of basic functionality.

Changing default calendar schema

hi
i know that it is possible to change date system to persian by using this alter command:
alter session set NLS_CALENDAR=PERSIAN
Is it possible to set default oracle calendar to Persian? i cant change the application but i have DBA permissions.
thanks

i add following line to the end of init.ora file in admin/orcl/pfile directory. is it initialization PFILE?
NLS_CALENDAR='Persian'
i tried PERSIAN, too. but neither of them does work successfully. i want to use Persian system in a java application and doesn't consider Oracle Enterprise Manager
Edited by: a.toraby on Mar 8, 2009 12:02 PMThe answer of the question that is that a parameter file is yes.But oracle doesn't read the init file from this location in the startup. It reads from the Database folder which is at oracle home, for example, on my linux box, /u01/app/oracle/product/10.2.0.1/db_1/dbs. The file placed over here would be read by oracle as the startup file. So you need to change the parameter over there.
From 9i onwards, there is one more type of file that you would find under that folder, SPFILE. This file is going to get the preference if its avaialble besides pfile/init file and this is not modifiable. So you need to tell us that if you have this file over there or not? If yes(most likely) than you need to make a pfile from this file and than edit that pfile with your parameter. Make a pfile from spfile using
create pfile from spfileThan edit it and remove the spfile(origianl) form the folder. After that start your db and check that parameter is working or not.

Change default calendar in iCal?

I have two google calendars which sync properly with iCal. However, the wrong calendar is on top (listed alphabetically). When I enter a new event from iCal, the default is to go to the wrong calendar. How can I switch them, or convince iCal to only add events to the second one?

In the left sidebar of iCal ensure the calendar you wan to add events to is selected. Unfortunately, you can't rearrange the Google calendars in iCal.

Ics 5.1 : change default calendar at login

without setting the attribute ceDefaultView in the LDAP user record, how can i change the defaultview show at login from the "overview" to "weekview" ?
(so users who havent set it in their prefs still get this weekview instead of the overview)

In the web interface, under Options/Settings, you can change the initial view. But it ends up setting the LDAP attribute icsExtendedUserPrefs=ceDefaultView=monthview. In an LDAP-based system you would expert this sort of thing to end up in LDAP. Why are you looking for a way to do this that doesn't involve LDAP?

Change default Calendar sharing level

Hi.
I'm trying to find a way of how to change the default sharing level of new users calenders. I have looked at the sharing policies but it seems to me that those are only for sharing outside the organization, at least I can't find a way of how to get these
working inside the organization.
Can anyone tell me if there is a way for me to set the default sharing level of all newly created users calenders automatically?
Best
Thomas

Hi,
By default, when we create a new user inside organization, Exchange will apply the default sharing policy to this new user automatically. We can check the default sharing policy by the following steps.
Logon EAC, navigate to organization > sharing.
Under Individual Sharing, select the default sharing a policy, and then click
Edit.
In sharing policy, check the box of Make this policy my default sharing policy.
You can use the same way to edit the default sharing policy.
Modify, disable, or remove a sharing policy

Change Outlook Calendar background color but its reverts back to old on restart

Dear Support,
I am trying to change Outlook Calendar background color but its reverts back to old on restart

Hi,
Let's take Outlook 2013 for example, go to FILE tab ->
Options -> Calendar -> Display options
-> Select the Default calendar color and the checkbox for
Use this color on all calendar ->
OK.
In case the Navigation Pane is corrupted, we may try starting Outlook with the switch "/resetnavpane":
Press Win + R and type “outlook.exe /resetnavpane” in the blank box, then press Enter.
I hope this helps.

How can you change which calendar you accept an invite into?

I have two calendars I use regularly. One is a Work calendar which has my work schedule that gets shared with multiple people. The other calendar is a Personal calendar which is only seen by me. Lately (or possibly always), when I receive a calendar invite from another iCloud user, (1.) I am not able to change the calendar which I accept it into and (2.) after I accept it to my Work calendar I am unable to go back to that event and switch it to a different calendar.
The only thing I was able to think up to try and resolve the issue was to set the Default calendar in the Mail, Contacts, Calendars settings to my personal calendar, but that didn't work either.
Any thoughts on what may be causing this or how to fix it?

I like how you said "A similar prompt should also appear when accepting an invite or event" because it doesn't appear which is exactly why I posted this question.
I know how to change normal events from one calendar to another but when I accept an event from someone else it gives me no options to change the calendar.

Changing a calendar of a webDAV event generates a 502 error

To reproduce:
1. Select an event in iCal that is served from a WebDAV Server.
2. Using the optional click, change the calendar of the Event to another calendar on the same server.
Result: iCal returns a "The server responded with“502” to operation CalDAVMoveEntityQueueableOperation.”
Expected: The event to be changed to the newly selected calendar.
Note: This functions correctly with local calendars
Note: For an in-depth exploration, refer to http://itechieguy.com/page1/files/iCal_error_saving_edited_event_redux.html.

Hi Chris,
Welcome to Apple Discussions.
I often do the same thing (ie create an event in the wrong calendar). Are you aware that the assigned calendar appears in the info pane. You could simply select the correct calendar there, even reassign events.
I understand the desire to do this with Quickeys, though I suspect very few people here use Quickeys. So if you don't get an answer here I'd suggest you consider the Quickeys forum: http://forum.cesoft.com/

'Default Calendar' still broken?

It looks like the ever-changing Default Calendar setting is still broken with iPhone OS 3.0.
Can anyone else confirm this?
Thanks

Hi Looter,
Are you syncing calendars between Entourage and iCal?
If you are using Entourage make sure it is updated to the latest version available.
Also, make sure you Mac has the latest software updates available; just click the Apple icon in the top menu bar and then click Software Update.
How are the calendars synced to the iPhone? Are they pushed from MobileMe or synced from iCal?
If the calendars are being pushed from MobileMe, try Resetting the Sync Data as shown here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1497
If the calendars are being synced from iCal using iTunes, try the tips in this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2481

I know this email is confusing and really hard to understand...perhaps now you will know how i've been feeling--lost and confused with all the mis-information, with a hit and miss phone, and out of time with all the 1 1/2 hr to 2 hrs EACH wasted on this issue.
On top of all this, I can't even find out how to file a complaint with anyone higher up than Customer Service.
I hate to tell you this, but you didn't write an email. You wrote a discussion post on the Verizon Wireless Community forum which is a public peer to peer forum. Unfortunately since you didn't mark your post as a question, the VZW reps that roam this community won't ever see your post. Before you re-post it, don't. Duplicate posts get removed from the community.
I see there were several missteps both by the reps and yourself in your post. First you should have insisted on returning the phone within the 14 day return policy period. Second which Samsung Galaxy mini model did you purchase? The S3 mini or the S4 mini? Did you do any research prior to deciding on this device. The reps at that time deflected the easiest course of action, by trying to get you to replace the phone under insurance instead of returning the phone. The Early Edge payment option requires the current phone on the line using the early Edge must be returned to Verizon Wireless. Did you once considered going to a third party site like Swappa to purchase a gently used device for your daughter?

Service Packages are changing users default calendars

I'm currently testing Communications Suite 5 cal server 6.2 schema 2. I have everything up and running but I'm running into an issue with with assigning service packages to users though.
I created all the users from the command line and I used -k legacy option for the calendar. At this point everything is working fine the user calendars I imported from Cal server 6.0 schema 1 all show up and work like they should. Once I assign a service package to a user account it changes their default calendar to the hosted format. Now my users have two calendars their default (hosted format) which is blank and their imported (legacy format) that has all the calendar entries.
I've changed /opt/SUNWcomm/data/WEB-INF/classes/sun/comm/cli/server/servlet/ resource.properties from switch-caltype=hosted to switch-caltype=legacy and restarted the web container but no luck.
Thanks for any help
Josh

It sounds like you missed this step during your move to calendar server 6.2/schema 2:
http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/819-2656/6n4ua512a?a=view
"Configuring Calendar Server for Hosted Domain Support"
I've changed /opt/SUNWcomm/data/WEB-INF/classes/sun/comm/cli/server/servlet/ resource.properties from switch-caltype=hosted to switch-caltype=legacy and restarted the web container but no luck.These settings control how UWC log's into calendar server, i.e. as uid (legacy) or [email protected] (hosted) - it sounds that your problem is related to how calendar server stores to data instead.

Default Calendar Option being ignored in iOS7

I seem to be having an issue with the Calendar, after upgrading to iOS7. (7.0.2)
I have multiple calendars synced to my Exchange email account.
In previous versions (iOS6 for example), I have been able to change the default Calendar that all new appointments go into.
This is still an option within iOS7, however it does not seem to work.
i.e. I have chnaged the default calendar to be Test1 (which is a sub calendar of Calendar) within my Exchange setup, but all new appointment requests seem to be going to the original Calendar Calender, even though within the settings i have changed the default setting.
Is anyone else having this issue as well, or is this a bug?

Ah, finally found a solution! I cannot explain why this suddenly got changed other than to assume it must have had something to do with a recent Windows Update or me trying to install Remote Desktop Services and Network Policy and Access Services.
I roughly followed the directions from
KB954357 or this
older post on the Hyper-V forum.
FIX:
1) Run gpedit.msc on the Hyper-V host that exhibits the problem.
2) Enable the policy setting Local Computer Policy > Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > System > Credentials Delegation > Allow Delegating Default Credentials with NTLM-only Server Authentication. Click the Show... button
next to "Add Servers to the list", and add the value "Microsoft Virtual Console Service/*" without the double quotes. Click OK. Click OK again to exit the dialog box.
3) Run a command prompt and execute gpupdate /force to refresh the group policy.
4) Now try to log into a machine in Hyper-V manager with default credentials enabled, and note that you are not prompted.
Again, I don't know why I had to do this, but it's working fine now.

TS3999 how can I change the DEFAULT calendar on my iCloud? I set it to Yahoo by mistake..

When I set up my iCloud calendar system, I did not know what "default" calendar to set and it set it to "Yahoo"
automatically. I would like to change that. Does anybdy know how?

Thank you. What I found in settings was that I could go to Yahoo (not iCloud) and "uncheck" the "calendar" option for that account. This allowed me to default to the calendar I wished to use, instead.
Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

How to change the options shown by default in project task list

----> All tasks Calendar Completed ... <-------
These three options show by default followed by ellipse.
I want to display not just three but maybe many options by default here like for example I want gantt option also to be shown.
User should see it straight away and not have to click ellipse to locate it.
Is it possible to modify what options are shown by default here.
Thanks.

Since you are using SharePoint 2013 I would recommend you to consider the following approach. In SharePoint 2013 was introduced a so called Client Rendering Mode (CSR) which is intended for rendering of List Views and Forms using HTML and JavaScript and
which is a default rendering mode.
About View selector menu
As part of CSR ClientPivotControl control (clienttemplates.js) is intended for rendering View selector menu, SurfacedPivotCount property defines the amount of view menu options rendered horizontally (default value is 3)
How to display custom amount of view options for List View using CSR
The following template demonstrates how to override SurfacedPivotCount property in order to display 4 view menu options:
function renderHeaderTemplateForDocuments(renderCtx, fRenderHeaderColumnNames){
var viewData = eval(renderCtx.ListSchema.ViewSelectorPivotMenuOptions);
ClientPivotControl.prototype.SurfacedPivotCount = 4;
return RenderHeaderTemplate(renderCtx, fRenderHeaderColumnNames); //render default Header template
SPClientTemplates.TemplateManager.RegisterTemplateOverrides({
Templates: {
Header: renderHeaderTemplateForDocuments
How to apply the changes:
There are at least two options how to apply the changes:
Using JSLink property of XLV web part
Place JavaScript template on page via Script Editor/Content Editor web parts
Here is how to apply the changes using the second option:
Switch the page (NewForm.aspx) into edit mode
Add Script Editor webpart right below the list view web part.
Put the specified code by wrapping it using script tag code into the Script Editor, for example: <script type="text/javascript">{Template JS code goes here}</script>
Save the page
