Reminder tasks on Mac want repeat set to 3 months

You can't set it for three months.
Here are the options:
You can, however, create custom intervals (such as repeat 3 months) for an event using the Calenders application.

How to set the current month as the default value of an input control?

Hello,
I want to set the current month or current year as the default value of an input control. Something like try to get the month from the currentdate() formula and assign it to the input control.
Is this possible?
Thanks & Regards

I don't think so. I tried to find a property or something in that Input Control but there is nothing to set it that way.

You should be able to sync your 3GS to your computer and make a backup. Then connect your iPhone 4S and restore from a backup. This should effectively move all your data to your new device. Report back if you have any problems.
If you are wanting to move our data from a Windows machine to your Mac, just let us know.

You will sync your iPhone to the iMac by using a connecting communication cable supplied with the iPhone.
Connect the iPhone and communication cable to the iMac that you want to use.

It is possible to have multiple libraries in a single account and use each one for a different iPod without affecting the other. To create or access a second (or more) library, hold down the Option key when launching iTunes 7. In the resulting dialogue you will get the option to create a new library or navigate to the other Library.
Note: You can only have one Library open at a time and iTunes will default to the last library opened if you don't use the keyboard command to choose one. This can prove tricky when using multiple iPods, if you don't use the keyboard command you can risk syncing to the wrong library but if you are only going to update your Dad's iPod periodically this shouldn't be an issue:

"Remind me" not working when "Repeat" is set for reminders

Hi,
My reminders used to work fine. I have a number of reminders that are set to repeat daily, or weekly, or monthly etc and they use to come up as alarms. For past few days I'm noticing they arent coming up anymore.
I just did a test.
I created a reminder with repeat set to never. And another with repeat set to daily. For both I set the "Remind me" to say 5 mins later.
5 mins later, only the first reminder alarm came up.
I would really appreciate any help pls.
Thanks!

Hi,
Thanks for your response.
So here is what I did:
1. Closed all apps: Double tapped home button. This swiping up and off isnt available in my iphone 4S v5.1.1. So I pressed the app icons right on the bottom until delete sign appear on top. Then I deleted all of them.
2. Reset my device: Held down the home button along with wake button until Power Off slider appeared. I powered off my device.
After restart i again set 2 reminders, one with repeat daily and the other without any repeat.
After 5 mins, alert came ONLY for the one without repeat.
So it dint work

Can't set date when creating a reminder on a Mac

When I try to set up a new reminder on my Mac, I type the description, then click the info icon to set the reminder date. I tick the 'remind me on a date' box, but I am unable to pick a date. The date picking calendar appears for a splt second, but it vanishes before I have a chance to select a date. The new item then appears under the current date and I have to go back in to set the reminder date. What's wrong? I have no such problem with the iOS version, where I can set the date while creating the new reminder, as you would expect.
Brian S.

New item also vanishes
This doesn't happen to me, so I am able to type the date in.
Probably a long shot.
Do a backup.
Quit the application.
Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J. When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder. Select Library. Then go to Preferences/
com.apple.reminders.plist. Move the .plist to your Desktop.
Restart the computer, open the application and test. If it works okay, delete the plist from the desktop.
If the application is the same, return the .plist to where you got it from, overwriting the newer one.
Thanks to leonie for some information contained in this.

I set up my iPad mini without a computer and now, when trying to connect it to my mac it asks if I want to set up as new iPad

I set up my iPad mini without a computer and have been using it for months. Now, when trying to connect it to my mac it asks if I want to set up as new iPad or restore from back up (Which I don't have).
Is there a way I can connect to my computer and itunes without losing everything I've done on it for the past months?

Go ahead and set it up as new. It's just new as far as iTunes is concerned. Shouldn't result in the loss of anything.

Make sure that you are logged in at the iTunes Store.

Is there a way that iTunes can act as a Radio Alarm Clock? I have found the radio station I enjoy listening to in the iTunes Radio List. Is there anyway iTunes (and my Mac) can be set to come-on and start playing that Radio Station from Sleep mode at spec

Any App or plug-in that does that?
Many thanks

Turning your Mac into a clock radio.
1. In iTunes create a playlist that contains just the radio station you want to wake up to.
2. Export the playlist (as .m3u works well). Get Info on your playlist file and look at the Open With entry to make sure it points to iTunes, VLC or some other app that will stream your station.
3. In iCal create an event entry at the time you want to wake up.
4. Right (or Control) click on your wakeup event and select Get Info.
5. For "alarm" select Open File.
6. Now under Open File there will be a place to add the file to open. It will probably be some default entry (like iCal). Click on it will allow you to select "other." Then use the file dialog to select your playlist file.
Your Mac will wake you up at the appointed time. You don't need to keep iCal running. If you want to put you Mac to sleep for the night then there is one more thing you need to do. Open System Preferences to Energy Saver and click on the Schedule button. Check Start up or wake and set the wake up time to slightly before your iCal alarm time.

I want to set up the Time Machine and I would love to use the Time Capsule but since I already have a wireless router I need suggestions on what other external disks Apple could recommend to use with the Time Machine and how to configure that disk

I want to set up the Time Machine and I would love to use the Time
Capsule but since I already have a wireless router I need suggestions on
what other
external disks Apple could recommend to use with the Time Machine and
how to configure that disk.
A complication that I need to resolve is the fact that I am using Vmware
Fusion to be able to use Windows on my Mac. Now it seems that Time
Machine is not backing up my files
on that virtual Windows without additional configuration and my question
is whether you can advise me here or whether this is only a matter for
the Fusion virtual machine.

If you want to use Time Capsule you can.. you simply bridge it and plug it into the existing router.. wireless can be either turned off or used to reinforce the existing wireless.. eg use 5ghz in the TC which is much faster than your 2.4ghz.
You can also use a NAS.. many brands available but the top brands are synology, qnap and netgear readynas series. These will all do Time Machine backups although how well always depends on Apple sticking to a standard. There are cheaper ones.. I bought a single disk zyxel which was rebadged and sold through my local supermarket. It actually works very well for TM at least on Snow Leopard. Major changes were made in Lion and again ML so do not instantly think it will work on later versions. I haven't tried it yet with those versions.
Any external drive can be plugged into the mac. Use the one with the fastest connection or cheapest price according to your budget. USB2 drives are cheap and plentiful. But no where near as fast as USB3 or FW800. So just pick whichever suits the ports on your Mac. Interesting Apple finally moved to USB3 on their latest computers.
TM should exclude the VM partition file.. it is useless backing it up from Mac OS side.. and will slow TM as it needs to backup that partition everyday for no purpose.. TM cannot see the files inside it to backup just the changes.
You need to backup windows from windows. Use MSbackup to external drive.. if you have pro or ultimate versions you can backup to network drive. But MSbackup is a dog.. at least until the latest version it cannot restore the partition without first loading windows. There are about a zillion backup software versions for windows.. look up reviews and buy one which works for you. I use a free one Macrium Reflect which does full disk backups and is easy to restore.. to do incremental backups though you have to pay for it.
