Old birthdays not showing

Is this a bug or a setting that I am missing?
The problem happens on OS 4 and prior.
All my contacts with birthdays prior to the year 1932 do not show up on the calander.
In addition the recurring events in Microsoft Outlook prior to 1932 do not show up either.
How do I get the old brithdays to show up on my calander?

have you seen this other recent entry on the birthday bug?

Birthdays not showing up in iPhone

I have birthdays entered in Address Book on my G4, and showing in iCal as a subscription (option to show birthdays is checked).
When I sync my iPhone the Birthdays calendar shows up on my iPhone but none if its contents.
How do I get this fixed?
Thanks!

Thanks but I'm not using MobileMe. This morning I noticed that at least some birthdays are there. It may only be one that isn't showing up. I have to investigate more.

New contact's birthday not showing up in calendar. iOS 7.1.1 related?

Not sure if this is iOS 7.1.1 related but if I add a new contact with birthday entry (or a new birthday to an existing contact), the new birthday will not show up in the calendar on iPhone and iPad. It will correctly show on my Mac and in ICloud calendar. It makes no difference if I add birthday on iOS device, iCloud or Mac.
The contac information shows up correctly on all devices, but not birthdays in iOS calendar.
Anyone alse who has the same problem or could try to replicate it?

This is what worked for me.
Open the Calendar app and select Calendars and untick Birthdays.
Close the Calendar app and unload from memory i.e. press the home button twice and swipe up the Calendar app.
Re-open the Calendar app and select Calendars and reselect Birthdays.
All the birthdays now appeared....at least for me.

Old icloud notes show as blank

Upgraded my Early 2013 MBP retina 15" to Yosemite 10.10 (14A389).
All my iCloud Notes show as blank (see image), new ones show up fine. On my phone, those old notes have the content.
I tried unchecking the notes box in prefs > icloud, i tried restarting the mac, etc. to no avail.
New notes sync just fine and show content just fine.
Pic of issue:

I had exactly the same problem. I unchecked my google, exchange and iCloud notes setting in iCloud and Internet Accounts, then zapped the files in /Users/myusername/Library/Containers/com.apple.Notes/Data/Library/Notes, then re checked the iCloud Notes setting and it fixed the problem.
BUT be aware, I first thought it had not as I had recovered some more of them, but some were still blank, but then I checked 5 minutes later and they had recovered. Basically, the activity monitor showed 1MB received and then stopped, then 5 minutes later it read 2MB and all were recovered.
What I would suggest is that you do this and do not let the mac sleep or anything while it is recovering this.
I hope this helps.

Birthdays not showing in Ical

Am a recent convert to Mac. Brilliant decision! Am trying to display birthdays in ical using address book. I've ticked the display in preferences. In ical the read only birthday calendar shows in the left hand panel, but the actual birthdays don't appear anywhere. Anyonw know what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks

Try quitting iCal and reopen it. Then see if they appear.
Also, turn off all your other calendars except birthday, and click on the birthday category, then click the SHOW SEARCH RESULTS button on the lower right frame. See if the list that pops up contain any birthdays from your address book.
Hope that helps.

Japanese Birthdays not showing in iCal

Hi all -
I have moved all of my contacts into Address Book, and the birthdays helpfully show up in iCal. That is except for my Japanese friends whose names I have entered into Address Book with Japanese characters. Is there anything I can do about this? Thanks.

Try quitting iCal and reopen it. Then see if they appear.

Old orders not showing in "My orders" section

Hi, I hope someone can give me a hand on this problem.
I bought a copy of Photoshop in July 2011 from the adobe shop, I downloaded it and have been using it. Over the weekend my computer was stolen so I need to reinstall Photoshop onto my new machine. I can see all the details in the "My products" section but when I go to the "My orders" section Photoshop is not showing at all.
What am I missing? Is this version no longer supported or am I doing something wrong?
Any help would be really appreciated, I've got customers fighting with me about deadlines and I really need some help.
Thanks

Old emails not showing in mountain lion mail

I installed mountain lion and now, some of my emails received before the installation do
not show text. They only show the header and in the text area the circle and "loading", but
the text never appears. How can I fix that?

You could try deleteing and re adding your mail account. But make sure your account type is "IMAP" before doing so. If it is a "POP" account, you will loose all of your messages so it is important you make sure the account type is IMAP before deleting and re adding.

Old connections not showing on Discoverer Connections page after a REFRESH

Hello all,
I am having a weird issue with Discoverer connections after a recent refresh of our DEV AS environment from TST.
Before I proceed further, let me give you some details on our environments.
We have recently upgraded our version 9.0.4.1 AS DEV and TST environments to version 10.1.2.3. We also patched our Portal to version 10.1.4.2. Our Infrastructure, Middle Tier, and Metadata Repository Oracle Homes are on one host (AIX 5.3), and our Portal Repository (Customer) database is located on another host (AIX 5.3). Our Repository databases are version 9.2.0.8.
That said, this is my first refresh attempt at version 10.1.2.3. I was able to complete the refresh (after troubleshooting some issues) fine and was able to bring our DEV Portal up and things looked fine. But when I get to the Discoverer Viewer connections page, I don't see any connections listed there.
During the refresh I did an "ssomig -export" and "ssomig -import" successfully and the logs showed no errors. When I look in the ORASSO.WWSSO_PSEX_USER_INFO$ table, I can see the Connections data. But somehow from the Discoverer connections page nothing is visible. If I create a new connection, everything seems to be normal with the way Discoverer works. But I am not able to figure out how to make the old connections show up on the Connections page.
I have tried doing an "ssomig -import" a couple of times with no luck. Can anyone help me out? I am not sure what is going on.
Thanks.

Old iMessages not showing on iPhone 6 after upgrade from iP5

Hey guys,
I've picked up my iP6 today and I can't see any of the old iMessages I've had. They are still showing on my MBP but not on the new iPhone (MBP is still running Mavericks as I don't want to upgrade before I submit the project for work next week... just a precaution ). Any ideas?

I haven't done a recent backup - any chance I can get them synced via iCloud? I've assumed this would happen since it's being constantly synced with everything else I've got running on iOS

Old purchases not showing up in player?

I just recently downloaded iTunes again, because I have like 50 dollars worth of purchases that I wanted to get back. I signed into the old account, and only two of those purchases downloaded to the iTunes player. The rest show up in the purchase history, but I can't get them into the player to put them onto my music player. How do I get my iTunes Store purchases into iTunes? HELP!

What do you mean? The music is wherever you put it.
Noting will just show up. Once you buy them, it is your responsibility to keep up with them. You purchase ONE download. You should back up and keep up with the song after that. Just like a cd you buy at Walmart, if you lose it, it is gone. Walmart does not give you a new one.
If you have not saved the file somewhere then it is gone.
From the terms of service of itunes:
" PRODUCTS CAN ONLY BE DOWNLOADED ONCE; AFTER BEING DOWNLOADED, THEY CANNOT BE REPLACED IF LOST FOR ANY REASON. YOU SHALL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR BACKING UP YOUR OWN SYSTEM,"

Google Contacts' birthdays not showing up in Apple Contacts or Calendars

As a primarily Gmail-using guy, all of my calendars and contact information is stored with Google. All my Google Contacts are exactly the way I like them, with various information such as nicknames, birthdays, important dates (my anniversary), etc. I just bought an iPad Air 2 and proceeded to sync my Google information as described here: https://support.google.com/mail/answer/2753077?hl=en
All my contacts were successfully added. However, for all of my contacts that did not have a Google+ account, their birthdays, which I entered manually into my Google Contacts, were not synced. None of my contacts on my iPad have their birthdays, either in their contact card or the calendar, even though I explicitly have their birthdays in my Google Contacts on Gmail.
Is this a known issue? Is there a step I'm missing, and will I be forced to manually enter all these birthdays?

I think I found the culprit: birthdays in my Google Contacts that did not have a birth year did not sync, while those with years synced properly.
This is an issue, as admittedly, I do not know the birth years for many of my contacts (acquaintances and whatnot). It appears iOS forces you to have a year in order to add a birthday? Is this the case, or am I mistaken?

Birthdays not showing up for birthdays after 1980

I have came across a little app called 'Dates to iCal', which basically does what Apple seems incapable of - allowing you to set alerts for birthdays.
Problem is, (whether I use either the Apple way or the 'Dates to iCal) if I try and sync my phone, it only copies over the birthdays of people born after 1980! Would this be a problem with my phone (Nokia 7370), or is it an iCal thing?
Note I've tried deleting all events from years prior to 2007, doesn't help, the phone still seems concerned with when they were actually born for some reason.
Thanks for any help.

This is not an issue with iSync at all, or with your Mac OS X configuration: it is a Symbian issue. It does not affect all Nokia handsets - rather, it affects only those from Nokia—and others—which use the Symbian OS.
The root of the issue lies with someone at Symbian who realized that a significant amount of space could be saved when storing agenda entries on devices like mobile handsets if an an alternative to the traditional TTime API was available.
TTime stores values representing dates and times as the number of microseconds since midnight, January 1st, 0 AD on the Gregorian calendar. The alternative TUint16 API imposes a highly restricted date range: only values from January 1, 1980 through December 31, 2100 are stored, where each value is calculated in a similar manner from the start of the range. Great for one-time events within the range, but lousy for birthdays and similar recurring events, many instances of which clearly fall outside of it.
So, along come those responsible for writing Symbian code for mobile handsets and many of them latch onto TUint16, or use library routines or programming samples created by others who did. Now, recurring or non-recurring events, outside of the January 1, 1980 through December 31, 2100 window cannot be handled properly by many [probably most] Symbian OS-based mobile handsets and smartphones. That's why you see this across a range of handsets from several manufacturers, but not all handsets from any one manufacturer are adversely affected. And, it's why you see some birthdays displayed but not others, because those displayed have a root record date for the recurring entries—or, in this case, a birth date—on or after January 1, 1980. Those not displayed have a first occurrence of the birthday prior to January 1, 1980.
Because this issue involves the mobile OS and calendaring applications themselves, there is no workaround available to users hoping to display the disallowed dates. Only a rewrite of the calendar code for an affected mobile handset, or shifting to a non-Symbian OS device, would correct the problem.

Got a new phone and everything good but old messages not showing on the new phone can anyone help please thanks Teresa

How do i get my old text messages to my new phone.

If your old text messages were on a previous iPhone, which used the same telephone number and cellular carrier as the new one, and the previous iPhone was backed up in iCloud or iTunes, then you could restore your new iPhone using the old iPhone's backup.
If not, then you cannot get the old text messages.
UPDATE - I believe the old and new need the same Apple ID as well.

Please help me get rid of old videos not showing in the app.

My iPad does not delete all the data when a video is deleted if it didn't download fully. How can I clear the data? Those are all videos bought through iTunes.

A lack of free hard drive space on your hard drive could cause the delays. Highlight you boot drive and do command i to see the capacity, available and used space on your drive. "Available" needs to be no less that about 15 percent of "capacity."
