Palm desktop calendar - in month view, event times are in wrong order!

I use Palm Desktop 4.1.4 on my Windows XP machine (I don't own a PDA). I enter my appointments in Week view and they look fine, but when I go to Month view (I want to print this view), the events for a given day show up in the wrong order!
For example, on one day I see:
9a Event
10:30a Event
2p Event
12p Event
and on the next day I see:
9a Event
2p Event
10a Event
I tried changing things in Options and Preferences - no luck. I have messed around with it and can't figure out any weird pattern it might be sorting by (I've tried re-entering appointments to see whether it sorts by the last time they were entered/edited, and looked into whether it was sorting by category, length of event name, first digit of the time, length of time, alphabetically by event name, by whether it repeats/has a location/has a note/has an alarm/was entered by clicking once and typing or by right-clicking). It just seems baffling, and it definitely seems like a bug, since of course you'd want your events sorted by time.
Does anyone know what's going on or have this problem?
Thanks!

I had looked at this in response to another post, and didn't notice the same problem. But then I went back further and noticed it sure enough...it's only occasional.
I haven't done any kind of analysis as you have apparently done, mostly because I don't really use the desktop application except occasionally.
Thought maybe it sorts repeating events differently than single events, but I've seen it both ways, so that doesn't seem to be it.
It doesn't bother me enough, but it certainly seems like it would warrant an email support request to Palm, to see if they have an answer.

  • When first launching Calendar in Month view, events are missing

    On my iPad 1 running iOS 5.0.1, when I launch Calendar in Month view, the entire calendar is blank (no events). I have to either select a different view or create a new event in order for events to show up. This has been the case since upgrading to iOS 5 and also happens on my wife's iPad 2. I have restored both devices multiple times for other issues and the condition remains.

    Figured it out - the event has to be marked as full day event in order to be shown in monthly calendar. Disregard my question.

  • Time on Calendar in Month View

    Can someone tell me how to show the time of appointments when the calendar is in Month View. I know I saw it on the IPAD, but I can't find it now that I want to use it. Talked to Apple Care today, but they said it wasn't possible. I know better - help appreciated.

    It is possible. APPLE store reps at one store told me it was not. Later, I saw the month view with times displayed on a floor model at another APPLE store and asked a rep how to set it up. After some looking and discussion, the employee told my husband and I how it was done. Unfortunately, we did not jot it down and neither of us remembers!! But we both saw it. Someone, somewhere knows..

  • ICal's month view events are spilling out and overlapping making unreadable

    iCal's month view events are spilling out of their day boxes and overlapping the events below them making it impossible to look at the month view and discern one's schedule.
    What's really odd is it only seems really a problem with the current month. January 2009.
    What can I do to remedy this situation?

    Okay, I figured out a simple remedy that was probably always intended by Apple. I had been pasting long text paragraphs from emails into the 'Subject' Header. When I paste the long paragraph of information in the "NOTES" area at the bottom of the dialogue box and just put a brief subject line in the header area this fixes the problem.
    This might seem like common sense, but Palm Desktop did not require this. I figured this out by trying Entourage. Entourage synching with the iPhone however works through iCal and deleted all my color coded Calendars that I had not backed up. In Palm Desktop I had 15 categories each with a color code.
    Now, when I put an address into the "Location" window why can't I tap that on the iPhone Calendar and have the GPS/Googlemap display this location on a map?

  • Items blanked out on my Palm desktop calendar

    I am running Palm.exe 4.1.4 software on Windows 2000.  In the calendar function, I enter about 4 items per day.  Recently, some of the items have "disappeared" from the desktop window.  I can see the item's time allocation on the calendar date, but no text.  The text still appears correctly on my Treo 680.  (I am using the color-coding function for different categories.)  Any advice?

    Sounds like you may have private records set to mask.
    1. Open Palm desktop
    2. Select View
    3. Make sure its set to show private records

  • Printing Calendar shows ellipses for event times

    We generate a .ics file from your database which users can then subscribe to. Recently, we noticed that when trying to print our calendar from iCal, the event times just show up as ... rather than showing the time. This does not happen for any other calendars, just our one that you can subscribe to. We are using proper ical format to generate our calendar, so I have no idea why this would be happening. Has anyone seen this before?
    webcal://www.puc.edu/news/calendar/puc.ics

    Yes. This has to do with one or more all-day recurring events that synced over from Outlook 2003 improperly. It seems to be a bug.
    In order to fix this, you will have to look at the iPhone calendar and start browsing backwards (monthly view is most convenient) until you find the first day that shows no event (that has no dot in it). If you go back far enough, you should find one.
    When you find the first day that shows no event, start browsing forwards until you find the first blank day that shows an event. This will be the first instance of the "bug".
    When you find that day, start looking back to the day(s) before, and you will likely find an all-day recurring event (like a birthday, anniversary, etc.). Open the event, and look at the event dates. If the date is February 5, it should read Feb 5 to Feb 5. On my iPhone, it read Feb 5 to Feb 4. That end date was the day before. I manually fixed it to say Feb 5, and when I came back out of the event edit screen, that fixed the problem.
    You may notice the problem reappear in future months. That is because there are other recurring events with the same problem. Unfortunately, the only way I found to fix this was to find each one with the technique I describe above, and fix them one by one. I was unable to fix them in Outlook (as they looked OK in Outlook), and there is no search feature on the iPhone to look for these.

    All of a sudden I can't print my calendar in 'month' view.  It only does day or list.  Any thoughts?

    Thank you so much... I put this in another thread too, but, through help I learned that it is the errors that's causing this. The problem is that I don't know enough to fix it. It happens in a nested table, (don't know CSS well enough either to use it instead) and I can't figure it out... its a full page table, 50% on each side, and a center cell that should contain a same-size nested table... as in, I want to put all the content in the center.
    The error:  "table" is not allowed within: "tr"

  • Does calendar month view show times

    I'm sure I'm not going crazy but I could have sworn that, until late last night, my iPad 2's calendar when in month view showed event times.  Similar to what you see when you check the "show times in month view" box when in iCal.  I am pretty sure that that function was on my iPad 2 prior to my downloading iTunes 10.3.1 beta because I keep my iPad near the kitchen phone so that we can 'check the calendar.'  Now it is not there.  The folks at MME support didn't have an iPad to check and they suggested that I go to a local Apple store and see if the ones in the store had this function.  I did and they did not.  
    I spoke with a genius at the Apple Store and he couldn't verify whether that was ever a function of iOS on the iPad.  I did tell him that my iPad had been having some strange things happen on the display when I activated the calendar on the iPad.  Events would appear, disappear, then reappear sort of in an wave.  I am not sure as to the timing of this as to whether it was pre iTunes 10.3.1 beta or after I installed it.  
    HELP!  Was I just seeing things?  Or was it there and now gone?
    G-N

    Thanks for the wild and crazy ideas.
    I did remove any events that span midnight and it did not help.
    I looked at the DbFixit program. Since it corrects problems in the Palm and not in Palm Desktop I believe it is not relevant. The reason I belive the palm device is not involved is because of the following test:
    I removed all previous Palm Desktop versions
    I removed all registery entries for both Palm, PalmOne, and the USB (as specified by a chat session with Palm)
    I removed all data directories including \Program Files\PalmOne, \Program Files\Palm, and \Palm
    I removed all instances of data in the Documents directory
    I did a cold boot of the computer
    then...
    I did a fresh install of Palm Desktop
    I typed in a year's worth of data
    I did not sync or otherwise connect a palm to the system
    I selected month view
    The system crashed!
    I believe this takes the Palm device completely out of the loop. This problem occurs when typing data in Palm Desktop from the keyboard.
    I appreciate any ideas, and will follow up on them.
    Thanks again

    Since no Palm was involved, the corruption must have occured in the Palm Desktop program itself.

  • Printing in Month View WITHOUT time showing. Help Me!

    I need to print a monthly calendar WITHOUT the start time for events showing on my printout. I've gone to preferences and de-selected the "show time in month view" box, but although times do not appear on the month view on my computer, they pop up again in print preview and when printed. How do I get rid of the darn things?
    Please help!!!! Thanks, Luana.

    musetta24,
    Sorry to see that no one replied to your post back in October.
    Normally when I notice that someone posted for the first time in Apple Discussions, I open my reply with - "Welcome to Apple Discussions." With my apologies for the lack of responses, please accept a belated welcome and reply to your question.
    Widowwmaker,
    iCal will not print without displaying the times.
    If you are willing to use the Preview application, you could take a screen shot of your preferred iCal window, and print using the Preview print menu.
    ;~)

  • Palm Desktop calendar 6.2.2 won't allow me to go past Dec 2011

    I'm running 6.2.2 with Windows 7.  Noticed a few months ago that it crashes every time I try to look at January 2012 on the desktop software.  I was hoping there would be a fix but I can't seem to find anything.  Anyone else have this problem?  I tried downloading it again just in case there was a corrupted file initially.  Thanks.
    Post relates to: Zire 72

    Try setting up a new username and see if you can access the calendar in Jan. 2012. If you can, you can try and import the calendar data from your username and see if you have the same problem. If you do then the data is corrupted and will need to be checked for errors. To check the calendar, you will need to use dbfixit and run it on your HH.
    There may be database corruption causing the issue. Click on the following link for the program called DbFixiT. This program has a trial version that you can download and install on your Palm OS device. The trial version will scan for database corruption and then report the corruption. You can then find the records causing the problem and fix them yourself or you can purchase the program and have it automatically fix the records.
    http://www.pimlicosoftware.com/dbfixit.htm
    To install the program, set all conduits to "do nothing" except quick install or install if using Palm desktop 6.2.
    After you install the program on the handheld, run the scan and also scan for Blobs in the calendar. There is a manual avail. to download from the website.
    After you clean-up the database on the handheld, set the conduits in hotsync to handheld overwrites desktop and perform a hotsync.

  • Centro will not sync with Palm desktop - Calendar and/or Contacts

    I have used a Palm device for many years. Acquired a new Centro. Upon installation of Palm Desktop (on Windows XP) that came with Centro, all contacts, calendar, to do, memos, etc transferred to the Centro during installation.

    Post relates to: Centro (Sprint)

    I have a Centro/Verizon Wireless using Versamail with accounts established for personal POP and Exchange e-mail synchronization.  The latter account is for work.  Previously I owned a Treo 650p using Versamail. 
    When I first installed Palm OS Desktop and synched to my Centro device, it was on a Windows XP home computer, and no Versamail accounts were defined.  First I downloaded and installed the Versamail version which allowed Exchange synchronization.  I exported the Treo650p contacts list to a disk file, and imported it onto the Windows XP home computer into the Palm OS Desktop installed with the Centro-supplied CD.  This synched the imported contacts list to the Centro fine.  After I defined all the POP and Exchange accounts, synchronization with the office Exchange contacts list worked fine, and still does.  Synchronization with the windows XP home computer for contacts seems to still be ok, too regardless of the MS Exchange Versamail account commingling with my personal POP accounts.  Maybe the install sequence is overriding the previous posts' notation that MS Exchange mail definition will override synch with Palm OS Desktop?
    The problem now is I have a different/second home computer that's Vista os.  I installed the Palm OS Desktop and synch with the Treo.  The contacts list is not synching to this second home computer, maybe because I didn't follow the exact same sequence as for the Windows XP pc?  I can still synch my Centro with my Windows XP pc and that includes contacts.
    Is there a way on this second pc to override the MS Exchange contacts override for synchronization without having to go through the exact same install sequence as occurred on the Windows XP machine?

  • Google calendar event times are shown as -1h

    Summary:
    When I create a new event in the built in WP8 calendar app to a Google calendar the time of the event is being displayed as one hour earlier.
    Steps to reproduce:
    Create a new event in calendar. Choose one of the Google calendars configured (I have two configured in my phone). Set time as 2013/07/17 16:00. Save the event.
    Expected behavior:
    The event time in the agenda view is shown as 2013/07/17 16:00.
    Observed behavior:
    The event time in the agenda view is shown as 2013/07/17 16:00 for a few seconds. It then automatically changes to 2013/07/17 15:00.
    Other notes:
    I have two Google calendars configured. I can observe the same misbehavior on both.
    I also have a Microsoft (@hotmail.com) calendar configured. This works as expected.
    When I log into my Google calendar using a web browser, the time is shown as expected.
    When I use a third party calendar (Chronos) and sync my Google account directly, the time is shown as expected.
    When I use a third party calendar (Chronos) and use it simply as an interface to the built in WP calendar the time is off again showing 2013/07/17 15:00.
    The timezone on my WP is set to (UTC) London.
    I started noticing this perhaps a week ago. It was working as expected before.
    Phone model is Nokia Lumia 925
    Phone OS version is 8.0.10327.77
    Notes 1-6 suggests to me that the internal calendaring module in WP8 fails to recognize DST (daylight saving time) in timezone (UTC) London or misinterprets relevant information fields on Google calendar objects.
    Note 7 suggests to me that this is related to an update to my WP8 phone or a change in Google calendar API.
    Any help is much appreciated, this is driving me rather nuts.
    Thanks,
    Kaarel

    Further investigation reveals this only happens when the event is created from within WP native calendar app and disappears when I make an edit to the event in any other calendar client including Google web. So a more appropriate description of the problem would be:
    "Native calendar app keeps subtracting 1h off a Google calendar event on EVERY edit"
    Create an event at 2013/07/17 15:00 in WP native calendar app. Result: Event shows as 2013/07/17 15:00 in the calendar app for a few seconds, then updates itself to 2013/07/17 14:00.
    Edit the event title and save in WP native calendar app. Event time moves by -1h again to 2013/07/17 13:00.
    Edit the event title in Google web calendar.
    Subsequent edits in WP native calendar do not mess up the time any longer. If I fix the time to what I originally intended (2013/07/17 15:00) in WP native calendar app, it stays there and shows correctly in all previously mentioned calendar viewers.
    I just learned that Lumia 925 was released with GDR2 update pre-installed. This update is only now being made generally available. If the issue is secific to the CalDAV implementation in GDR2 rather than specific to my phone only, this would make a lot of angry people. I hope I'm wrong on this though as it's an extremely frustrating problem.
