Ovi Calendar dates off
When I Sync my phone with Ovi, calendar items show one day ahead on the Ovi website. (Ex: An event on 2nd Apr is shown as 1st Apr, and an event on 1st Apr is shown as 30th Apr) It's very annoying. The events show perfectly on the phone. Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?
I have the same timezone and 12hr format both on PC and phone.

I have same problem. I have identified it as following: Create a new "anniversary" entry on calendar on N97. Sync to OVI calendar online. Entry in OVI calendar is created as an "all-day-event" box ticked for the correct day but also wrongly has a "start time" of 01:00 (which is greyed out)!! This makes it roll-over onto the following day. Sync then sometimes seems to shufflye this "Anniversary" forward by one day. Is is all to do with the incorrect creation of the Calendar entry on OVI calendar when the item is first sync'ed. The solution it to either create an "all-day" entry on OVI calendar and THEN sync to phone OR untick and then tick the "all-day" check box which blanks the "at" time box for the event.

Google Calendar Dates Off By One Week
I just upgraded to an iPhone 3G. I synced to 4 Google calendars. Three of them work fine. However, the main calendar shows on the iPhone a week late. For instance, my appointment scheduled on Google for Nov 18 shows on my iPhone as Nov 25.
Any ideas?Woraround: Turn on time zone support in the mail calendar settings and choose your location. Downside is you have to change it if you are traveling. I thin apple should address this as a bug.

Our exchange server crashed and we lost all contact and calendar data. We found an app to get the contacts off of people's phone to import but can't find the same for calendar. How do I get my calendar info off my phone and in to new exchange server?
You'd have to think through this, but it seems like if you are using Outlook, and the items vanished from the Outlook client as well as the server,that you could re-populate Outlook using iTunes.

Recovery of Calendar data lost when Merging with iCloud
I Was wondering if anyone could help.
Basically, I have somehow managed to wipe ALL the entries from my partners iPhone 5c calendar when turning calendars on for iCloud. When prompted I pressed the merge calendars button and then everything disappeared. I turned iCloud calendars off again and the calendar which was called something like "on my iphone" has disappeared.
I downloaded some 3rd party software which scanned the phone and found the calendar entries, but to restore them would cost my £55 for the full version of the software. Is there a way to access this data and restore it without spending this sort of money?
Just to complicate matters, a backup of her phone hasn't been done since the start of june, roughly 7 weeks ago. I'm concerned that if I restore from that backup she'll lose contacts she's added since there along with saves and other updates she's made to apps on her phone, which will put me in even more trouble than I'm in already. I'm guessing the phone hasn't been synced with iTunes since this backup was made, although I have transferred recent purchases.
So, is there a way to recover the calendar data that has disappeared without losing anything else?
Thanks for for your helpHi
No I hadn't created a Calendar Archive before this mishap (I will now), and I thought it would be covered by the Time Machine Backup. I was activating my iCloud drive for the first time and I think that it was doing this that somehow lost the calendar data. Previously the Calendar data was on the Mac hard drive.
I have now managed to get the old calendar back, but I don't quite know how.
The links to calendar backup in your reply led me to tinker more with the Time Machine, and the data on the My Passport drive directly. I could not see the any calendar directly in Finder or Time Machine, but a Finder search on My Passport's latest backup showed various calendar stuff, including .ics files, in [users/myname/library] which were hidden.
I either restored one of these, or imported one via Calendar. I tried both, but neither seemed to work at the time. However, I reopened Calendar a some time later and found that the “lost” calendar had returned.
I couldn't find a way of revealing hidden files in the preferences, and I think that the library containing the Calendar files must be hidden because I could only see them via “search”.
Anyway, all's well that ends well, but I wish that I really knew how I fixed it. Thanks for your help. -
Can I get calendar information off of IPhone without syncing?
I would like to export my calendar info from my IPhone before I sync with google calendars and contacts. I have my contacts synced with google, but am unable to get the calendar info off without losing it during the sync. Is there a way to do this? I want to avoid losing all of my calendar data on my IPhone when I sync with Google Calendar. Can I do this without having to reenter everything manually?
I have also backed up everything in Itunes, can I just pull the info from there with a restore? Nor sure what to do.One thing that might help out.
In order to sync calendar events to a windows computer, you would need outlook 2003 or 2007.
If you tried to get them back by doing a restore from back up, you would over write the google exchange information and be back in the same spot you started.
Hope this helps. -
Hello
I've found bug in OVI calendar (web).
When I change date of events (Edit all event occurrences), or name of events, the date of changed event is not a valid date
Ex.
I have event: EXAMLE, 22-10-2009 (How often will it happen? - WEEKLY). Next, I changing date 21-10-2009 and... The date of events it is finally 23-10-2009.
BTW: In google calendar it is OK.

www.urbanowicz.net.plBoth bugs still exist.
When I create an all day event, initially it shows as a full day event for the correct day. When I check back later, the event is shown as full day for two days. Synced to the phone (N8) the events are displayed correctly.
I am also unable to edit e.g. birthdays that started in 1980's. I get a message saying I need to edit the first instance. -
Hi
I've got problems importing a .csv file to the calendar. I have a calendar exported from Outlook with ~200 entries. I can import them with ease, no errors here. However when I look at the imported entries, they all show up on the same day. All 200 of them. And the time on them is the same as the time I tried to import them.
I also tried with some less entries with same results.
Anyone know a solution?Seems like I have to live in US to use it - it was date format that caused this issue.
Fixing it was easy. Change your location information from Windows Control panel to English (US), export your calendar from outlook - and change back your settings. Now import the csv to Ovi calendar. Oh btw, you might have to adjust the times also, it somehow imagined I live in GMT-time zone, so I had to adjust all my appointments by two hours.
Easy to use... -
Bug: Ovi Calendar and pre-1975 events
I was quite puzzled to discover the hard way that OVI Calendar does not support events dated before 1/1/1975. Apparently not all developers learned from the Y2K bug.
Why do I need events in the past, you may ask. Well, to store birthdays/years.I have stored birthdays of my contacts as yearly repeated events in Outlook, starting from the day of birth. That's handy to remember their age. I first synchronised them with my phone (Nokia 5800) and everything went right. When I synchronised them with OVI, all events scheduled before 1975 got moved to December 2010 or January 2011 (day of month was preserved, though).
This is a bug and users should be warned/informed.If I set MD-Soft Birthdays to create memo events rather than anniversary events for my contacts' birthdays, one-time-only memos are created for the current and next year and at least they are not moved to december.
However, another strange behaviour/bug happens when syncing: the synced memo events appear in the online OVI calendar one day earlier, i.e. a memo scheduled in the device's calendar on 25 August (because that's the birthday date) will appear on OVI calendar on the 24 August. The memo is then not further synced with the calendar, i.e. if I delete the 25 Aug memo from the device's calendar, the corresponding (wrong) 24 Aug memo is not deleted from OVI and, vice versa, the 24 Aug memo is not synced back to device's calendar even if it appears in OVI. Further, the wrong 24 Aug memo is then treated as an independent entry and synced back to the device.
That's annoying, because besides not working, now I have to remove all those wrong events! Luckily, Birthdays allows to search and remove all events starting with '[B]' (not only those it created itself), which also takes care of the wrong memos that got synced back. Otherwise, since OVI Calendar does not allow to search for strings shorter than 4 characters [DOH!], I would have needed to delete them manually! -
I am on 11.1.1.5. I am creating two calendar date prompts begin date and end date for an analysis. I want to be able to generate some kind error message or warning if the user tries to enter a date smaller than begin date in end date prompt. How can I do this?
@Amith, no the link would not accurately satisfy the OP's need. What if the user chooses a valid date (i.e., in the allowable date range), but the report produces no records? The customized "No Results" message, would say, "Please choose a valid date value" and would be incorrect.

How can I do this?@user12301184, what you need to do is this:
1) Create a small report that returns rows if the dates selected in the dashboard prompts are in the valid range, and does not return rows if the dates chosen are outside the range.
2) In the dashboard, move a Section to the workspace and put your main report there. Click on Section>Properties>Guided Navigation and have OBIEE point to the small report created in step 1 with the radio button "Display when report returns rows" checked off.
3) Move another Section to the workspace and put a Text object in the Section. Click Section>Properties>Guided Navigation and point to the same report, but this time choose "Dispay if the report returns no rows."
4) Now in the Text object, put your customized message, "Please choose a valid date range."
5) Finally, in the report itself, you can customize your "No Results" view to say, "There are no records to display for the date range selected."
To summarize, according to the OP's criteria, there are two reasons why the report wouldn't show rows: one, specifically because of the invalid date range; and two -- not explicitly stated, but true nonetheless -- when the report itself produces no rows even though the date range is valid.
My solution takes into account both scenarios. It doesn't give a potential wrong error message like so many applications do when the scenarios are not thought out completely. -
My calendar date is not automatically changing, what's the proper setting?
My calendar date is not automatically changing, what's the proper setting?
If the population of the ObservableList (independent of any UI considerations takes a long time, then you probably want to do the populations off the JavaFX application thread (e.g. via a javafx.concurrent.Task)).
If you do populate the list in a Task, standard threading cautions apply in terms of not updating items in the scene graph off the JavaFX application thread and ensuring that the system is absent of race conditions, etc.
Look over the documentation of http://docs.oracle.com/javafx/2.0/api/javafx/scene/control/Cell.html and that may help you.
The JavaFX controls such as ListView have been carefully designed to exhibit high performance even when backed by extremely large lists (through the concept of virtualization explained in the Cell documentation). For example, if the backing list is updated but the portion of the list being updated is not within the currently displayed list contents, (I would hope) the update would be very efficient. -
No question. Just a comment with code example.
Yesterday I was having issues comparing two Calendar dates. They looked equal in my println statement, but they failed the test. The solution evaded my cafeine intensified brain for hours. Then it hit me. Print out the time in milliseconds and see if the numbers were the same. Nope. Why?
The problem was that in the real world, you get dates from all over the place, not just cooked up for a text book example. (Don't you just hate those text book examples in their unrealistic world?) Anyway, I was getting a date from an HTML form and a data from a database and comparing the two once I had converted them both to a Calendar object. This seemed a reasonable choice.
Well, the java.sql.Date that the Oracle driver returned which was converted to a java.util.Date was fine. I ran this into a Calendar with the call calS.setTime(dbDate). The form date was split into fields and put into a difference Calendar obj with the call calF.set(fYear, fMonth, fDay, 0, 0, 0). This too seemed reasonable. Then a call to calS.equls(calF) resulted in a false even though the actual dates were in fact the same.
The problem was with the time. The java.sql.Date (calS) had a time of 00:00:00 which was fine. The calendar from the form also had 00:00:00 for a time since I initialized it with zeros. Hummmmm. Now what? As mentioned before, I decided to print out the actuall time in milliseconds and that gave me my answer. The two calendars were off by only milliseconds, but that's why. You see, the equals method of Calendar compares two dates/time in milliseconds. You can see this in the source for yourself. It's not difficult to read at all. Download and open the api source file, src.zip, and locate Calendar.java in the java.util directory.
The fix was to add calF.set(Calendar.MILLISECOND, 0) and calS.set(Calendar.MILLISECOND, 0) to zero out the milliseconds in each Calendar object. That did the trick. Here's example code of the problem (test1) and the solution (test2). I tried to simulate as close to real world as possible. If you have a better solution or I've made some error, please let me know. I'm always looking for better ways.
Main.java
import java.util.Calendar;
import java.util.Date;

public class Main {
private int fYear = 2003;
private int fMonth = 3; // march
private int fDay = 14;

SimpleDateFormat df = new SimpleDateFormat();
// get the date from the form
Calendar calF = Calendar.getInstance();
calF.set(fYear, fMonth-1, fDay, 0, 0, 0); // month starts at 0 - so march would be 2
System.out.println("From form date: [" + df.format(calF.getTime()) + "] [" + calF.getTimeInMillis() + "]");
// simulate other activity in the app
try {
Thread.sleep(5000);
catch (Exception ex) {
ex.printStackTrace();
// get the Date from the shared object which comes from a database (java.sql.Date)
// the return is java.util.Date
// convert to a Calendar
SharedObject so = new SharedObject();
Date myDate = so.getTheDate();
Calendar calS = Calendar.getInstance();
calS.setTime(myDate);
System.out.println("Shared Object date: [" + df.format(calS.getTime()) + "] [" + calS.getTimeInMillis() + "]");
// compare the two calendars for equality
if (calS.equals(calF)) {
System.out.println("The same");
else {
System.out.println("NOT the same");
public void test2() {
SimpleDateFormat df = new SimpleDateFormat();
// get the date from the form
Calendar calF = Calendar.getInstance();
calF.set(fYear, fMonth-1, fDay, 0, 0, 0);
calF.set(Calendar.MILLISECOND, 0); // the magic bean
System.out.println("From form date: [" + df.format(calF.getTime()) + "] [" + calF.getTimeInMillis() + "]");
// simulate other activity in the app
try {
Thread.sleep(5000);
catch (Exception ex) {
ex.printStackTrace();

// the return is java.util.Date
// convert to a Calendar
SharedObject so = new SharedObject();
Date myDate = so.getTheDate();
Calendar calS = Calendar.getInstance();
calS.setTime(myDate); // just to be safe
calF.set(Calendar.MILLISECOND, 0);
System.out.println("Shared Object date: [" + df.format(calS.getTime()) + "] [" + calS.getTimeInMillis() + "]");
// compare the two calendars for equality
if (calS.equals(calF)) {
System.out.println("The same");
else {
System.out.println("NOT the same");
SharedObject.java
public class SharedObject {
public java.util.Date getTheDate() {
java.util.Date d = null;
try {
java.sql.Date s = java.sql.Date.valueOf("2003-3-14"); // this march is converted internally
d = (java.util.Date)s;
catch (Exception ex) {
ex.printStackTrace();
return d;
} The output
From form date: [3/14/03 12:00 AM] [1047621600296]
Shared Object date: [3/14/03 12:00 AM] [1047621600000]
NOT the same
From form date: [3/14/03 12:00 AM] [1047621600000]
Shared Object date: [3/14/03 12:00 AM] [1047621600000]
The sameSo your post boils down to the fact that Calendar's set(year, month, day, hour, minute, second) method doesn't change the milliseconds fraction?
Given that there is this method, I guess it would be nice if there was a method that simultaneously set all fields, but the API does state:
Previous values of other fields are retained. If this is not desired, call clear() first. -
Calendar data disappeared, not resynching with Gmail calendar - help!
All my calendar data just disappeared. I tried resynching with Google Calendar but the only entry to reappear was one I made a few minutes ago. Resynching does not work. The data is still visible in my Google Calendar on my desktop PC. How can I restore it to my iPhone?
Kevin,
Open "Settings" on the iPhone>Mail, Contacts, Calendars, Bookmarks>Accounts>your MobileMe account and turn off the Calendar, when prompted delete data, wait two minutes turn Calendar back on, and when asked merge the data. Wait patiently, and hopefully you will be able to regain sync functions. If you are able, I recommend using a Wi-Fi connection to make the change
AFAIK, the merge function will incorporate calendars on your iPhone and MobileMe.
If you are not confident with that answer, be sure to try MobileMe Support and select the appropriate country/language, choose "Syncing with MobileMe," select "Troubleshooting MobileMe Sync issues," and then select "Chat Now."

I lost my calendar data with Yosemite 10.10.2
MacBook Air (late 2010) with installed OWC 480 gig SSD hard drive. Updated to Yosemite 10.10.2
Only my calendar data lost. My husband's data is fine both for office and home. My new data is now in a file called 'Calendar' which I did not create. Old file was AMWhome. I changed the name from 'home' a year or so ago in order to differentiate from my husband's home file.
Restoring data to the newly named 'Calendar' brings back the AMWhome name and data for about 3 seconds and then it is gone! I found these files in the trash.
I have my data on another machine (MacBook Pro) which I took off-line and copied the data file. I tried to restore the data from the file from the MacBook Pro with the same result, the AMWhome appears and the data appears for about 3 seconds and is gone.
So, now what can I do?
I cannot empty the trash on my MacBook Air and cannot go online with my MacBook Pro.
Help!
Thank you,
Adele Ward1. Are you positive you looked at the correct backup IPD file. If it was backed up during the upgrade, it would be named something like "loader backup**todays date**.ipd"
They are normally saved to the My Documents folder.
2. Do you sync to Outlook or any application on your PC?

Iphone 4 Calendar date not showing the write date
I just upgraded to the ios 5.1.1 from 4.2.1. I have a Iphone 4. After the upgrade, my iphone's Calendar date is not showing the right date. in order for the right date to show, I either have to re-start my iphone or I have to go into settings/general/date&time and turn off the set automatically off than on in order for it to show the right date. I didn't have this problem before the upgrade. I hope someone can help?
I had a similar problem and then found that my calendar was not set for the right date and year. Check that first.
