Printing in Month View - Getting rid of times

When I print in month view, I have annoying times next to my events. I don't want any times associated with my events, and they're not all day, so I don't want to have to click that option either. Is there a way that only the evens will print?

Select a calendar. Set on month view. Select i (info) in the lower right corner. On the info screen or section that should appear at the left side of the calendar, select the "color" rectangle. From the pop up menu select "other." On the color selection block that appears, select the multicolored circle that appears at the upper left. Position your pointer in the center of the circle and click. This will turn the color bar to as near white as you can get it. Close the color block and the info screen. At the iCal drop down menu select "preferences." "general." Near the bottom of the General screen unselect "Show time in the month view." Now, with your printer set on black and white, the "all day" events in the month screen will print without the time stamp. They will be slightly grayed out, but will should be legible, especially if you are printing at size medium or large. I have not found a way to completely eliminate the gray-out.

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.

Help: event times not printing in month view

... and yes, I have checked "show time in month view" in preferences, and the event times display on the screen. But on the monthly printout, the times do not appear, only ellipses where the time should be. There should be plenty of space for the information to print, there is white space both at the end of the event line and in the day box. But no times show up at all.
System data: Mac Mini, OS X 10.4.2, iCal 2.0.3 (1055), Brother MFC 7820N printer.
This is really awful... I just switched my wife over to the Mac Mini, and calendaring is a big part of what she needs. And she uses month views a lot. If I can't fix this, she'll probably throw the Mac Mini back in my face and I'll be sleeping on the couch. Yes, she cares that much about times printing in month views.

I don't know whether this a "solution" or a work-around, but I did find a way to resolve this problem. I recently started using iCal by transferring appointments from a BlackBerry using the BlackBerry PocketMac software. Although all of the appointment times appeared on the monthly calendar, most of the appointment times were replaced by ellipses when the monthly calendar was printed. It turns out that the times would print only after re-entering the appointment manually. This had to be done completely from scratch, i.e., not by editing the original appointment, or by cutting and pasting the appointment back into the calendar. This is a complete pain, but seems to work. I'd love to hear a better solution...

I was able to print my month view from ical, but no longer is "month" an option. I can only see list and day. Please advise!

Just curious...about two weeks ago I was able to print my ical calendar in month view. For some reason, "month view" is no longer an option in print mode. The only two options I have are day or list. Not sure how to print in month view now or retreive that back. Please advise : )

Be sure Safari does not have the Block Pop-Up Windows preference set.
Where I work now there are several unencrypted VLANs that require authentication, and Safari promptly pops up a window for me to register every time.

Appointment times not printing in month view

When I print a monthly calendar, most but not all of the appointment times do not print. Instead, the time is replaced by elipses ("..."). Also, end times are not printed. Any suggestions?

Month View:start and END times

Here is feature that i really need In the Month view: The option to have start and end times displayed. Now that their is no info drawer i have open and info drawer to see when the event is supposed to end. I have a lot of events in a day and some are for me and some are for my company and some are for my wife.
I need to see the start and end time quickly. Outlook does it.
Please make iCal do this incredibly useful view option.

Start times are still viewable.
It is a click box in the preferences that says show time in month view.
What i need is the END time as well.

Printing Docs - how to get rid of 3 inch wasted space on right side of page

I tried to print out : Communicating With Objects
http://developer.apple.com/mac/library/documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/CocoaFunda mentals/CommunicatingWithObjects/CommunicateWithObjects.html
After trying several different settings and printed only the first page until I got the print more or less the way I wanted it, however...
I have a standard HP Color Laserjet 2600n, looked at all the printing preferences, and all four margins are set at (.25 inch), yet when the pages print out there are about 2.5 inches of wasted space on the left side. The space is there for the Table of Contents, but there is nothing printed there, the space is blank.
So I clicked on the Table of Contents header, so the TOC became hidden and the window only contained the text and images, then when I tried to print, I found that now there were about 3 inches of white space on each page on the right hand side. This is somewhere around a 40% waste in paper, trees, etc.
One would think that expensive as printing is, there would be a way to save paper by optimizing coverage on each page as much as possible.
Another curious thing is that the size of the text on the screen is easy to read at Safari normal (default) settings, yet when the first page is printed the text is really small.
In order to get the size of the print on the paper to be easily readable, I had to click on the large [a][A] at the top of the Safari window twice (+ 2 sizes). The text on the window was fairly large, but the print became easy to read. There was still an excessive amount of wasted space, which just goes against the grain...
Does anybody have a clue how to get rid of all the wasted space on each page ? There has to a simple way, this is 2010 and we've been doing this for 25+ years now.
I am sure it is something simple that I am overlooking ? I'd be grateful for any help.
Thank You,

What browser are you using? Try downloading a PDF if one is available, or try printing from XCode's Deveoper Documentation window.

What can be printed in Month view?

Is there any way to print notes in the month view? I want to add notes about a count-down to a specific date. I realize I can make the count-down number the title of an event, which would print, but a note would seem more simple.

Yes you have the 3rd column with nothing in there. I dont think we can able to confgiure something on it.
Hope document type, number and description is good enough information at that point.

How can I stop iCal from printing an appointment time posted in week view but printed in month view?

While I keep my calendar in weekly format, I also want to print a single-page monthly calendar. But repeating the time of day in the monthly format takes up space. Is there a solution?

I wish that I was replying with a solution. Alas, I am not. I am writing to commiserate. This issue is driving me and my husband (to whom all of the useless email notifications are being sent) completely bonkers.
Help! Anyone?
Anyone?

Before printing, how do i get rid of type in corners of page?

Type is >> date - title - http etc.. = time 1 in each corner

That looks like the headers. Check the print options.

Can't get rid of time machine desktop icon

Some how I've managed to get a time machine icon on my desktop even though I don't have time machine configured to run. The icon is a blue hard drive with the time machine symbol on it and has the label Drew1 under it. If I control click on it it brings up the option list for the desktop. If I "command I" clcik on the icon it shows the information for the desktop. I can't eject it and I can't drag it to the trash bin. How did this icon get on the desktop since I didn't enable time machine and how do I clear this icon from the desktop?

Very odd, indeed. I don't know where to suggest you go from here other than the extreme of reinstalling OS X.
Reinstall OS X without erasing the drive
Do the following:
1. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
2. Reinstall Snow Leopard
If the drive is OK then quit DU and return to the installer. Proceed with reinstalling OS X. Note that the Snow Leopard installer will not erase your drive or disturb your files. After installing a fresh copy of OS X the installer will move your Home folder, third-party applications, support items, and network preferences into the newly installed system.
Download and install the Combo Updater for the version you prefer from support.apple.com/downloads/.

Month View - Print Events Without Time

Is there a way to print events in month view without the time? Alternately, is there a way to print all the words in an all-day event in month view? Sometimes I type a paragraph for an event, and as long as it's a timed event, iCal displays all the words. But if it's an all-day event, iCal only shows the first few words, because it wants to keep it on one line. Printing the time in month view gets in the way sometimes.
This may be an option that doesn't exist yet, so Apple - help me out please!
Thanks!

Printing Times in Month View

When I print a calendar in month view, some of the event times print, but some of them only print as an elipsis "..." This seems to happen arbitrarily, without any correlation to the length of the event description. So, some short descriptions have an elipsis for the time (even though there is plenty of room to print the time) and some long descriptions have the time. Does anyone know how to print a monthly view calendar so that the time prints for every event?
iMac Mac OS X (10.4.9)

I'm troubleshooting the same problem for one of my clients. Not certain if this helps or not, but the elipsis "..." only seem to appear in events that are set to the "floating" time zone.
Still working on a solution (or work around)...

Print month view without time of day

I am using iCal to manage project due dates in our office. I am able to turn off the hours/minutes when in screen mode, but each time I print the month view of the calendar the times print too. Is it possible to NOT print the time?
Thank you.

Time in month view printing

I do not want "time in month" view to print. I have unchecked the box in preferences, and it does not show on the screen in month view but still prints. Any suggestions to turn off when printing? Old iCal versions did not print "time in Month". Unwanted Example: "7:30 Class 7:30-9:40" Wanted Example: "Class 7:30-9:40"
Thanks in advance

I have the same problem. I want to print the month view like it was in my older version of Ical and it won't do it. I want to print what I see.
