Printing a calendar, help!

Hi, I never used this feature before but now I'd like to create a calendar and print it at home. I exported it in pdf but I cannot manage to set it in order to fit an A4 sheet. The problem is it prints in one sheet the photo and in the other the calendar, so it would be 24 sheets for the months plus one for the cover. Any ideas? Thanks

AU:
There is a way you can print a calendar to A4 paper, both sides. First do a Print to PDF with the option Save PDF to iPhoto as seen in this screenshot:
Click to view full size
This will create a 2000 x 1600 pixel jpg file of each page of the calendar. Once in iPhoto you can print a photo page onto A4 borderless paper, turn it over and print the corresponding calendar on the reverse side.
If you want to create a higher resolution jpg for printing you can edit the Send PDF to iPhoto workflow with Automator and change the dpi setting from 200 to 300. This will create a 3000 x 2400 pixel jpg of each page.
The workflow to edit can be found in the HD/System/Library/PDF Services folder. It's called Save PDF to iPhoto.workflow. Make a copy of it, drop it on the Automator icon to open in Automator and make the necessary edits. Name the copy appropriately and put in the same folder with the original workflow.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
Note: There's now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

ICal defaults to print ALL calendars-help!

I just went to print my first calendar from iCal after upgrading to 10.5.6 from Tiger. Instead of iCal defaulting to the calendar I was working in, it defaults to print all calendars at once. I have to uncheck every calendar except the one I want to print. "Help" explains that the default should be the calendar I selected and was working on. Any suggestions?

ltrager58,
Welcome to Apple Discussions.
It appears to me that "Help" is incorrect. The calendar selection for printing is ultimately made in the "Print" window using the "Calendars" pane.
I suggest that you provide iCal Feedback.

I had a similiar problem, with my multiple devices. I open iTunes and when all devices were connected I went to the info section on each device. Under info I checked the sync calandars. Under that I click all calanders. I then did the apply in low right. I then did the sync function and it fixed it for me. You have to do this for each device.
I also checked the device (ipad,Iphone) themselves and change the calander selection to NO Catagory. Hope this helps.

How do I print monthly calendars in iCal 5 with location?

Hello,
Our office uses iCal to manage our schedule. I cannot get a monthly printout from iCal that displays location information i.e. information entered as location on iCal. Previously on our windows machines we had to use Outlook Calendar Assistant for this (which I still can't understand because this seems to be a very trivial problem, at least to me). The printouts are demanded by some older employees that absolutely need paper versions.
Can I export an iCal file to another program to print my calendar the way I need it? Can I do it from iCal directly? Outlook 2011 isn't an option at the moment because it does not sync with Google Calendars yet. Any help is greatly appreciated.

With pleasure!
Great to know it worked for you
Say thanks by clicking the Kudos thumb up in the post.

Printing blank calendars in iCal

How do I print out a range of BLANK calendar months (eg, October to December) that I can then fill in manually?

I'm glad you figured it out because I don't think I would have.
I think your request (ie printing blank calendars) is unique enough as to not be found in any help or tutorials but I think after reviewing some info and playing around w/ iCal you'd discover the answer yourself. You might want to look here for a nice overview: http://www.apple.com/support/ical/ and especially the link: http://www.apple.com/support/mac101/work/10/ as well as iCal's Help menu.

Printing 'checked calendars' in iCal

I have 25+ calendars in iCal and always found the following functionality useful (which is described in iCal 2.0 Help online):
+By default, the calendars that are currently selected in the main iCal window will be printed. Selecting or deselecting calendars here does not affect what's checked in the main calendar view, it only affects what is printed.+
I didn't realize just how useful this feature was until I upgraded to 3.0 and it stopped working this way. Now whenever I go to print a calendar, ALL calendars are checked to be printed as the default and I have to uncheck the ones I don't want one by one (or by group).. even more annoying because the window they give you to do this in the Print dialogue box is tiny not resizable.
Has anyone else experienced this? Any help on how I can get iCal to work properly? I checked iCal help within the application and it says the default is the same as I listed above from 2.0. Your feedback and help is much appreciated!

I'm adding a "me too" too. This is making me crazy. I have about 10 calendars that I have to uncheck to print one calendar every day!

Print iCal calendar and display location

When I print a calendar in month view, I need to see the location and it's not there. Does anyone know how to get location to print on month view printed calendars?
I'm using iCal v3.0.6.
Thanks!
SP

sp_64,
Are you found of the Month View look. Because you can print in list view and add more days. How many days you can print on a page depends on the details and how many events you have. But it will give you your location information. I will continue to look into it but that is what I've found so far.
Hope that helps,
Weston

Can I print small calendars in iCal or from some other program?

I have a calendar in iCal that is used to keep track of my girlfriend's class and work schedule (which is wildly different from day to day). I would love to have this calendar on my iPhone but it must be in a different color like it is in iCal so that I can differentiate her schedule from my own easily. I thought a nice solution might be to simply print a small business card sized week view of her schedule and keep it in my wallet, however I can't seem to get ical to print a week view on anything smaller than an 8x10 sheet of paper.
It would be a great help to me if you could show me how to either sync to my iphone in a different color or print a small portable "cheat sheet" that I can carry with me...
By the way Apple, if you're reading this, how come we can't keep calendars that are separate in iCal separate in iPhone? Unless I am just being a dunce on this one, you should consider making this possible on the iPhone.

Ok it is a long one but it is possible to resize it without any external programs.
Only one calendar is synced to iPhone (ie one colour)
To print your calendar small:
Choose File/Print
Select everything you want on the calendar, don't worry about sizes yet and click Continue
In the print window, choose Paper Handling and select Scale to fit paper size
Choose the size you would like (business card?)
You can either print or Save to PDF

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"
<body>
<table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
<tr>
    <td width="50%" valign="bottom"></td>
    <td width="980" align="center" valign="bottom"/><table width="980" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
      <tr>
        <td width="980"> </td>
      </tr>
      <tr>
        <td width="980" align="right" valign="bottom"> </td>

How can I Print the calendar from iPad with WiFi-Printer?

It's possible to print the calendar from iPad (1) to a WiFi-printer?

I also wish I could print my calendar from my ipad, it's crucial for my business yet they forgot to put a print option????? How hard would it be?? A screen shot doesn't help, on my wifi printer it reduces the image by one third? They say computers make like easier, but do they? We spend so much time just trying to get stuff to work, we can never really do what we need to, without having to talk to seven hundred people to find a hard to work solution.

How can I print my calendar without the color codes?

I need to print my 2005 and 2006 calendars (one month to a page) and then to highlight some of the line items for certain dates. I don't know how to get rid of the darn "color coding" so I just get a simple calendar with no group colors. I appreciate your help! Thank you!

Roger,
Thank you so much for the reply but that only removes the times from the screen. Even when they are not visible on the screen, they are still there when I print the calendar. Do you know how to get them to not print?
Thanks!

Printing/Preview Calendar Month View shows no appointment

On some clients when the user clicks on Calendar and then choose print calendar both preview and the print(obviously) show no calendar events. There are calendar events on those days and other users with some of the same calendars can print.
We've updates the client to 2012 SP2, Firefox is the latest and we tried changing IE to be the default browser in case that was involved. We also changed their default printer to be the same as a working client and rebooted the workstation. No effect - although changing the default printer ended up showing a gray screen instead of at least just a blank calendar. We also checked all options to see that they were the same as a working client.
I am at a loss. Does anyone have any other ideas as to what to try to get this fixed. They really need the option to print their calendars on a regular basis. Thank you.

Hi Laura,
I see TID 7011876 that talks about "Unable to print shared or subscribed calendars" and how it prints just a blank page with date range. Our problem is similar - even the print preview comes up grey. We seem to have fixed it on one workstation with a client repair install from another Windows profile but it's a fluke because it hasn't fixed anyone else.
Anything that you can do to help us get this through to Novell is so greatly appreciated. This is a major problem for us. I have full departments that have migrated from using Google calendars to GroupWise. As an organization we are trying to all use the same calendaring system. Some of my departments have a real need to print and cannot do so. This is keeping them from communicating with staff. That TID I mention is from SP1 and listed Reported to Engineering in March.
I know in Enterprise Calendar it would seem that printing to paper would be a low priority but my Administrators have shown me very good reasons to do so. Hopefully, Novell can look at this as more of a priority to fix. We are on SP2 at this point. Thanks again. 8^D

I can't print my calendar, and I can't install the new Iphoto??

I can't print my calendar, I need to update my Iphoto. But I can't install the new Mac OS, I have the version 10.6.8 and my macbook is too old to deal my the latest one. What can I do to print my calendar If I can't install the new version of Iphoto?
Please help me!
Steve

My calendar is done in IPhoto, it's a project you can get done in Iphoto and It's printed by apple and ship to your door. Useful, but not anymore because that's the message I received one I send when I buy the calendar.
"We apologize for the inconvenience, but the ability to order books, cards, calendars and prints is no longer supported in iPhoto 7. Please upgrade to a newer version of iPhoto to order these products."

Printing weekly calendar from Sunday want to print from Monday

Since upgrade with Yosemite can only print weekly calendar from Sunday. Wish to do from Monday. Can anyone assist please.
Greg

Hey there Grelin,
The printed calendars start on the same day that you have your calendar set to start on. You can change that in Calendars Preferences:
Change the days and times displayed - Calendar Help
Choose Calendar > Preferences, then click General.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the very best,

Printing icloud calendar

Is it possible to print the icloud calendar from icloud.com or from an ipad or iphone? I need to print my calendar and can't find a print option anywhere.

If you are running 10.5.8 you can subscribe to the iCloud calendar. First you need to bring up your iCloud calendar and edit the calendar. The blue connection symbol. Copy the URL from the dialog box. Go to you iCal app and subscribe. Paste the URL from iCloud and subscribe. You should then see the iCloud calendar under subscriptions. Warning. If you make changes to the iCloud calendar and then refresh your iCal (10.5.8) calendar some changes will not work. If you deleted something from your iCloud calendar it may not delete in the subscription calendar or if you change something it will add another entry. The only thing that has worked for me is to delete the subscription and resubscribe with the updated iCloud changes.
Anyway at lease you can print your iCloud calendar from iCal. Hope this helps.
