Repeat every other day

Does anyone know how to set up an event to repeat "every other day" in iCal? I need to have an event repeat every second day, but can only see options for "every day" or "every week". Perhaps I'm missing something, or someone can suggest a clever way around this? Thanks & Cheers!

    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:

    iCloud is not compatible with Snow Leopard, that is your problem.
    A quick way out is to purchase Soho Organizer which is compatible, even when running on Snow Leopard, it will correctly handle Contacts and Calendars from iCloud. $100, 2 user license.

  • Create event every other day in iCal

    How do I create an event that occurs every other day ?

    A work around for the repeat patterns that the iPad can't create, make them in your computer's calendar program and then sync them to the iPad. It will honor repeats from other places, even if it can't create the pattern itself.

  • Reminder every Other day?

    My wife just got the 4s last night. She's getting used to Siri but can't figure out how to set reminders for every OTHER day.  Is this possible?

    The repeat options for Reminders is as shown when selecting Repeat:
    None
    Every Day
    Every Week
    Every 2 Weeks
    Every Month
    Every Year
    There is no every other day option.

  • Calendar/Notifications: Every other day.

    Either using the calendar or 'notifications', I need to have the option of repeating an event every-other-day. I see no option for this in the calendar or notifications. Also, my only computer access is through this iphone.
    Does any way exist for setting up an  every-other-day option?
    I'd rather not have to use/buy an app.
    I have the original iphone 5.
    thank you for any help.

    In the iOS Calendar app the "Repeat" options for an event are every day, week, 2 weeks, month, or year -- no every-other-day option.  It might be a little more work to set up, but create 7 separate events, staggered every-other day, each with a repeat of 2 weeks.  That will give you the same result.

  • EA6900 drops 2.4 GHz wifi every other day

    Hey,
    my EA6900 (firmware version 1.1.42.158863) drops the 2.4 GHz network every other day or so. At that point, all connected devices lose the network connection and cannot connect again until I manually reset the router. This is a big pain in the **bleep**.

    How do I fix this?
    I've enabled automatic router firmware updates, but this has not helped over the last weeks.
    Thanks in advance,
    Robert

    There is a bunch of people with this router ( me included) that are having issues with the wireless dropping out. Some more than others as far as the frequency of it. I have a ticket open with them and have been talking to them every few days about it. One thing I discovered the other day that has stopped it from dropping connections on the 2.4 is to set the mode to G only. I have given this info to linksys and they are supposed to get back to me by tomorrow with some more info. I am assuming it is the same problem as yours: everything is working fine then all of a sudden devices start to disconnect randomly. An my laptops it shows as the SSID is available but it wont connect to it. Only way to get back on is to reboot the router. As suggested by linksys the security is set to WPA2 Personal and the bandwidth is set to 20 mHz instead of auto. There was a big thread about this starting to happen when the last update came out that went from 1.1.42.156465 to 1.1.42.158863. If the Auto update was checked it got the update and started to disconnect wireless stuff. Might want to see what hardware version your is, the 1.0 came with the 1.1.42.156465 so if yours has updated to the newer one you could roll back and see if it gets better. there is a go back to last version button on the UI. but if you have the hw ver 1.1 it came with the updated version and we have been told not to go back as it may brick the router. here is the thread: http://community.linksys.com/t5/Wireless-Routers/EA6900-New-Firmware-1-1-42-158863/td-p/770985

  • WRT160NL hangs every other day

    Doing a google search, and searching this forum, apparently every other day hangs are not that unusual for Linksys products.
    In any case, repeated hangs have been a problem since I installed my WRT160NL about 3 weeks ago. I'm trying to decide if I should just return it to the store, or keep futzing with it. 
    I have already reset the router and reconfigured it - made no difrerence. I'm running Firmware Version: 1.00.01 B15, which isn't the latest - an upgrade is the final thing to try. I have tracked the hangs over the last 7 days, and found the unusual pattern of a hang every 2 days, about 36-48 hours apart. This must mean something, but I can't figure out what. 
    MY QUESTION... Apparently the log on this router completely disapears every time its booted - it might help if there was some way to see if there is a common event before the hang. Any suggestions of how to preserve the log?
    Any other suggestions welcome. Chat support really doesn't know that much about this product - so far that has proven a waste of time. 
    thnx,

    Try to reflash the router's firmware and reconfigure it....
    Go to website linksysbycisco.com/downloads.........insert model no of your router in serach tab......select proper version of your router........download the firmware file......save that file on desktop
    Follow these steps to upgrade the firmware on the device : -
    Open an Internet Explorer browser page on a computer hard wired to the router...
    In the address bar type - 192.168.1.1...Leave the Username blank & in Password use admin in lower case...
    Click on the 'Administration' tab- Then click on the 'Firmware Upgrade' sub tab- Here click on 'Browse' and browse the .bin firmware file and click on "Upgrade"...
    Wait for few seconds until it shows that "Upgrade is successful"  After the firmware upgrade, click on "Reboot" and you will be returned back to the same page OR it will say "Page cannot be displayed".
    Now reset your router :
    Press and hold the reset button for 30 seconds...Release the reset button...Unplug the power cable from your router, wait for 30 seconds and re-connect the power cable...Now re-configure your router...

    Why does my itunes crash after start up with an "APPCRASH" error every time i open it?! I have been trying to fix this for weeks but all i can do it re-install it every other day which does nothing! I am desperate to get access to my itunes to get music on my phone and all of this just makes me want me to sell my iphone since there is no other way to add music to my phone. If things go get sorted soon you can say goodbye to my support.

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
    The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) release as a workaround for installation or performance issues, or compatibility with QuickTime or third party software.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there are also links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed.

    I think I solved the wifi connection problem, just by switching off completely the router! sounds trivial, but in this case it worked!!!
    the funny behaviour of the trackpad/cursor still persists. any suggestion???

  • Every other day, my mac won't start up

    every other day, my mac won't start up. my keyboard would light up and i hear the system start but nothing is appearing in the screen. i would have to press the start button until the screen actually shows up.. why does it do that?

    Have you just tried repairing with Disk Utility?
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions - Lion/Mountain Lion
    Boot to the Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. 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 then click on the Repair Permissions button. When the process is completed, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.

  • Computer on and off every other day

    is it bad? i really don't know. i've been doing this logic 7 hour sessions every other day by myself for 2 years... almost flawlessley. A true gift to have this time!!!It's unbelievable how much you guys have helped me here. I've been rec./ digitally for 10 years now...am I screwing up by powering down (everything)Monitors, Preamps, external drives..mixers. I always do this.

    At the rate of which Electrical component are made today, there shouldn't be arm in leaving stuff on,
    where as its made from a reputable manufacture, and as a signature or seal of approval.
    Power-ing down stuff will result in less consumption of Electricity, and will maintain a better system in-terms of abuse when left unattended.
    E.g. if there is a power failure back and forth, which may blow your system, if its not plug into a power-serge, that will protect it from these element of surprise.
    Another e.g. if your using a projector, and its left on, when not in use, then the life-span of the bulb, will be shorten because the life on these bulbs is for a certain amount of hours.
    So in this case leaving it off will result in a better life-span,
    also plasma screen is like that as well, other than that, it should be fine.
    If you're not bordered about paying the excess on electric rates,
    even though have it on and off, then on again could result in you paying more, than if it was to be left on in the first place.
    Stuff such as monitor is always left on even if the computer is off, in most set-up.
    Power amps/Mic/pre nice to leave of when not in use they eat that energy, believe.

  • Unless I repair my hard drive every other day I am unable to delete songs from iTunes or email messages from Postbox. I've only had an iMac for a few weeks, is this normal?

    Unless I repair my hard drive every other day I am unable to delete songs from iTunes or email messages from Postbox. I've only had an iMac for a few weeks, is this normal?

    Back up all data.
    This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership and access-control lists to the default. If you've set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it, but you do need to follow the instructions below.
    Step 1
    If you have more than one user, and the one in question is not an administrator, then go to Step 2.
    Triple-click anywhere in the following line on this page to select it:
    { sudo chflags -R nouchg,nouappnd ~ $TMPDIR..; sudo chown -R $UID:staff ~ $_; sudo chmod -R u+rwX ~ $_; chmod -R -N ~ $_; } 2>&-
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Paste into the Terminal window by pressing command-V. I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, you may have to press the return key after pasting.
    You'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
    The command may take a few minutes to run, or perhaps longer if you have literally millions of files in your home folder. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign ($) to appear, then quit Terminal.
    Step 2 (optional)
    Take this step only if you have trouble with Step 1, if it frightens you, or if it doesn't solve the problem.
    Start up in Recovery mode. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
    Utilities ▹ Terminal
    from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open.
    In the Terminal window, type this:
    res
    Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
    resetpassword
    Press return. A Reset Password dialog will open. You’re not going to reset a password.
    In the dialog, select the startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if it's not already selected.
    Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if it's not already selected.
    Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
    Select
     ▹ Restart
    from the menu bar.

    Ever since I received my Macbook Pro in July 2011 I've had issues with my wireless connection at home.  After software updates, Apple support suggested I reboot my router which works.  But now I have to do it every other day.  ????  AT&T my DSL carrier suggests I get a new router.  Apparently the one I have is really old and doesn't support my Macbook Pro.  Does this sound right?

    If your using WEP encryption yes, Apple has discontinued that becaues it's worthless. WEP (and WPA) is cracked so encryption makes no sense.
    Get a new Wireless N router, set it up with WPA2 (AES) Personal and two different 20+ randon letter/numbersymbol character passwords
    One for Admin access only of the router, keep this on paper off all comptuers in a safe someplace.
    One for entering into devices, computers etc for Internet Access Only.
    You need the long and random password to defeat brute force attacks by GPU software that the hackers have now.
    Also if you give out the password to another, they can't hack the network with the guest access password.
    Computers remember the internet password, so anyone with access to your machines or network will have the password.
    Since you have another Admin only password, they can't hack in. got it?
    You don't need "Invisible" or "MAC Address filtering" that's a waste of time as hackers can sniff a network and causes issues getting on the network.
    Good luck.
