Problem setting 2 alerts while saving an event in Calendar?

An incredibly annoying quirk that I have to believe is a software issue-pssst Apple, FIX IT!
Task: Saving a new event in Calendar with both First alert & Second alert. First Alert set (for example) to "30 min before" - Second Alert set to "At time of event."
Problem: Second alert will swap positions with first alert.
My Theory: Every instance where I enter the same time for "Start" time and "End" time for the event (my usual practice) I am forced to swap back the alert times  before selecting "Done."
Why I hate this problem: I have to ALWAYS enter my alert times TWICE. I almost always select the start and end times as the same because I am not concerned about when an event is ending. I only need to be notified when an appointment is coming up.
To clarify, my phone does this only when I select the same time for both "Start" and "End" of an event (again my usual).

Hi Leonard,
Do you mean you added a valid value to the ComboBox which is "-" as the value so that in the UI the ComboBox displays an entry "- -"?
Please note that (if I recall that correctly) the "-" is always there - even, if value + description are set as "".
Best regards,
Frank
PS: Sorry, due to the horizontal scrolling I cleicked on "eMail" instead of "Reply".

  • Problems Setting Alerts on iCal with Yosemite

    I am having problems setting alerts on iCal. Generally, I set for reminders at 1 day ahead, and then 2 hours ahead. When I enter the first alert everything is fine, and then on the second, the alerts switch places so that the one day before alert occurs as the second alert, and the 2 hours before as the first alert. Is there something I am missing?  It is purely frustrating. Using Mac Book Pro, running Yosemite 10.10.1. Thanks!

    First, verify you're using Calendar and not iCal, which was deprecated a long time ago.
    Then, update OS X. 10.10.2 is the current release.
    Using Calendar, I can't duplicate the problem, but perhaps I am misunderstanding your description of it. If you would kindly provide really simple step-by-step instructions, I'll try again and let you know what I observe. It could very well be a bug.

  • Excel 2007 VBA, problem setting Sheet Visibility in BeforeSave event after Office updates during mid Dec 2014

    After update of Office 2007 during mid December 2014, I have a Macro that does not work properly - which it did before the update.
    The Macro is used to make sure that users have Macros enabled when working on the file. The logic basically does the following:
    => In the "OnOpen" event, set all "work sheets" as Visible, and set the "Macro Warning sheet" to non-visible.
    => In the "BeforeSave" event, set the "Macro Warning sheet" as Visible and set all "work sheets" as non-visible.
    After the mid December update of Office 2007, the "OnOpen" part still works fine. The "BeforeSave" part does NOT work properly if the save action is triggered by using the shortcut key "CTRS+s". However, if saving the file
    using the "Save" option in the menues, the "BeforeSave" action works fine.
    Does Microsoft have a fix for this problem? I am not entierly sure exactly which update/KB that caused this.
    To recreate the problem, put the following code into the "thisWorkbook" module, and make sure that one sheet has the codeName "wshForceMacros". Open the file, enable Macros, then save the file using the keys "CTRL+s". The macro
    now hangs on the row "wshForceMacros.Cells(2, 1).Select" since the wshForceMacros sheet has not become properly visible...
    Option Explicit
    'ON OPEN
    Sub Workbook_Open()
    Call ShowSheetsAfterOpen
    End Sub
    'ON SAVE
    Private Sub Workbook_BeforeSave(ByVal SaveAsUI As Boolean, Cancel As Boolean)
    Call HideSheetsBeforeSave
    End Sub
    'ON SAVE
    Sub HideSheetsBeforeSave()
    Dim oSheet As Worksheet
    'Show Macro Lock sheet
    wshForceMacros.Visible = xlSheetVisible
    wshForceMacros.Activate
    wshForceMacros.Cells(2, 1).Select
    'Hide all work sheets
    For Each oSheet In ThisWorkbook.Worksheets
    If oSheet.CodeName <> "wshForceMacros" Then
    If oSheet.Visible = xlSheetVisible Then
    oSheet.Visible = xlSheetVeryHidden
    End If
    End If
    Next oSheet
    End Sub
    Sub ShowSheetsAfterOpen()
    Dim oSheet As Worksheet
    Dim bSaved As Boolean
    'Show all work sheets
    For Each oSheet In ThisWorkbook.Worksheets
    If oSheet.Visible = xlSheetVeryHidden Then
    oSheet.Visible = xlSheetVisible
    End If
    Next oSheet
    'Hide Macro Warning Sheet
    wshForceMacros.Visible = xlSheetHidden
    End Sub

  • Since day light savings, events are not saving in my calendar. Has anyone else had this problem?, Since day light savings, events are not saving in my calendar. Has anyone else had this problem?

    Since day light savings, events are not saving in my calendar. Has anyone else had this problem?, Since day light savings, events are not saving in my calendar. Has anyone else had this problem?

    Greetings,
    I have not heard of that issue although some people have reported events showing an hour earlier / later (though I haven't seen that personally).
    Questions:
    What version of the Mac OS are you running (Apple > About this Mac)?
    Can you make an event and then it just disappears?
    Are you using iCloud / MobileMe / Google / Yahoo / Some other server based calendar?
    Try these in order:
    Go to Apple Menu > System Preferences > Language & Text > Formats > Region. Region should be set to the country of your choice. Do not have it set to "Custom" as this can have unexpected results in the iCal window.
    Go to Apple Menu > System Preferences > Date & Time and make sure the Date and Time are correct and that the correct Time Zone is selected.
    If that doesn't resolve the issue:
    1. First make an iCal backup:  Click on each calendar on the left hand side of iCal one at a time highlighting it's name and then going to File Export > Export and saving the resulting calendar file to a logical location for safekeeping.
    2. Go to iCal > Quit iCal
    3. Remove the following to the trash and restart your computer:
    Home > Library > Caches > com.apple.ical
    Home > Library > Calendars > Calendar Cache, Cache, Cache 1, 2, 3, etc. (Do not remove Sync Cache or Theme Cache if present)
    --- NOTE: To get to "Home > Library" in Lion: Click anywhere on the desktop and then click on the "Go" menu at the top of the computer screen while holding down the "option" key on the keyboard.  You will see "Library" in the menu.
    4. Launch iCal and test.
    If the issue persists:
    1. Go to iCal > Quit iCal
    2. Remove the following to the trash and restart your computer:
    Home > Library > Caches > com.apple.ical
    Home > Library > Calendars > Calendar Cache, Cache, Cache 1, 2, 3, etc. (Do not remove Sync Cache or Theme Cache if present)
    Home > Library > Preferences > com.apple.ical (There may be more than one of these. Remove them all.)
    --- NOTE: Removing these files may remove any shared (CalDAV) calendars you may have access to. You will have to re-add those calendars to iCal > Preferences > Accounts.
    3. Launch iCal and test.
    Hope that helps.

  • Error while saving for Objective setting

    Hi,
    While saving the Objective setting templates i am getting the error as "Table HRPAD605 is not part of the Customizing object PDST T "
    <u>Error documentation is as follows</u>
    <b>Diagnosis</b>
    Entries in table HRPAD605 cannot be edited in connection with customizing object PDST      T as table HRPAD605 does not belong to customizing object PDST      T, according to the object definition.
    <b>System Response</b>
    The function terminates.
    <b>Procedure</b>
    Check whether the entered objects and keys are correct.Then check in the Implementation Guide whether the object was created correctly.
    Correct the object definition or the entry for the Transport Organizer interface.
    Thanks

    Hello,
    Most likely the is an inconsistency with the transport objects PDST and PDWS. Please run RHSOBJCH to correct this inconsistency.
    Afterwards you should be able to transport the templates via the catalog or via RHMOVE30. Please make sure that the category ID in the target system is the same otherwise you won't be able to locate the template.
    The report RHSOBJCH corrects the missing HR entries in the OBJS table.
    This step you need to perform only once. For OSA you need to overtake
    *5020 up to *5026, also PAD605,606 and 607 references.
    When you have done this (as said, only need to do it once) you can transport the categories and templates via the phap_catalog_pa transaction (righ-mouse click on the to be transported object).
    Hope this helps,
    Regards and Groetjes,

  • Problem while saving an object under a dev class

    hi all,
            Here is a problem while saving an object under a development class.... I created a Z program (ZSORDER)  through SE38 and while i was saving that Z program under a development class called SALES it shows an error message like  <b>" customer object program ZSORDER can't be assigned to the package SALES"</b>..... can any one can explain what is the problem....

    hi,
    you should have created your package starting with the letters "Y" or "Z".
    you have created it with the letter "s". SALES.
    's' is reserved to be used by SAP.
    so create the package  with the letters 'y' or 'z' like 'ysales' and you wont be getting that problem.
    try it.

  • Can you set alerts specific for different calendars so when you create an event, the alert for the event is already set?

    On google calendar if you had a calendar for work and one for school, you can set alerts for earch so when you add a class or work related event, the event is set with alerts for that calendar. Can you do that with iCal?

    Hi Steven,
    This is one of the reasons why I wrote Dates to iCal.
    As well as automatically syncing birthday dates from Address Book, Dates to iCal can sync anniversary and custom dates. It can set up to five alarms for each date in iCal and can also set different alarms for birthdays and anniversaries.

  • Problem While saving the Invoice

    Dear Experts,
                      I am facing the Problem while Saving the Invoice, In invoice, We assigne the Output as RD00 and Medium as 6 (EDI).
    When we are saving the Invoice, it getting as ' Updated Terminated'. When i found where the Error is coming in SM13, it showing in as Function Module "RV_MESSAGE_UPDATE' & Error Details is 'EAN11 not found for Material'.
                     But in Invoice whatever we enter the Material number, we maintain the EAN11 code. This EAN11 code is seen in MARM & VBRP Table. Unable to find the what the exact error is.
                   please help me to sort this issue, Its business complicated.
    Thanks in Advance,
    Srini

    Hi Asik,
              Thanks for your valuable Message.... I run as you suggested, but the dispatch time i kept as 1 or 2. because the program RSNAST00 is picking the values only for 1 or 2. so i run manually,, as of now the issue is, in the invoice number, for one material number, the Billed quantity is zero, so the UOM is getting as initial. From those vaues we are picking the EAN11 from maram table.
    So, i modify that and run the EDI manually. As of now its working...
              Thanks for your reply,,,
