Saving new events

After half a year of trouble free using iphoto, new events are not stored when i close iphoto. It may be a coincidence, but this trouble started when i tried to shate the library with other accounts. But the trouble remains after is stopped this.
Can some one help? Thanks

Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

  • New event on Wiki Calendar always saved a day behind

    I just did a fresh installation of Leopard Server & updated to 10.5.6 .
    Group wiki, blog and calendar are displaying as expected. I noticed that whenever I created a new event, the event date will be saved a day behind the selected date in the Event dialog window. For example, if I want to create an event on 3rd Jan 2009, I would have to set it on 4th Jan 2009.
    My time zone is Asia/Kuala Lumpur and time server is time.asia.apple.com .
    Any ideas ?

    Ways around it :
    1. Create an event with a duration (at least 5 min). You can have it begin at 12:00am if you want to.
    2. Create an all day event which MUST begin on or after 08:00am . Anything before this will be marked in the previous day box (even though the date and time values are as the way you have entered). I tried creating an all day event beginning from 07:55am and it was marked in the calendar a day behind. So 08:00am is the magic number.
    Question : Is 08:00am regarded as a new day in iCal server ?

  • Is it possible to save an Event and the informations attached to his medias (favorites, Keywords, Notes) on an external disk where I saved the first version of this Event, without re-copying the all medias on a new Event called fcp1?

    Is it possible to save an Event and the informations attached to his medias (favorites, Keywords, Notes) on an external disk where I saved the first version of this Event, without re-copying the all medias on a new Event called fcp1?

    If they both have the same media, you can just copy the CurrentVersion.fcpevent file.  But then you have two databases with the same UUID, and FCP X will only open one of them.  If you use Carbon Copy Cloner, you can clone just that folder to the external drive, and set it up to only update files that are newer or have changed.

  • Ical not showing new events and older events as well

    Hi There,
    Since (as I recall) last monday, iCal started to work strange. Or, better put in other way: stopped working.
    I have three calendars only (personal, work and "no category), all of them syncing with iCloud. There are two other local calendars too (in "my mac"), but I don't use them and they are unchecked.
    I only use my macbook white and an iphone 3GS, also syncing with iCloud.
    I don't subscribe any external calendar and don't accept any kind of invitation. It is a basic-simple use: I set my appointments (throw the whole year) and want to see / edit them on iphone.
    Finally, I use reminders (on iphone) a lot and share the "personal" calendar with my with (she uses iCloud on her iphone and ipad).
    The problems are basic two (as I could indentify so far):
    1) I can't set new appointments on iCal. Or better: I may set, but cannot see it. For instance, when a double click the Feb 24th to set a appointment, nothing happens, but a "New event" apperars on iCloud, right way. Looks like that iCal is setting the event up, but it just does not show it. Lately, I've discovered that when I go to the week view in iCal, it shows the event, but it just don't appear on month or year views;
    2) There are a bunch of events that appear correctly on iCloud (and iphone) but just don't show up in my iCal.
    I've been trying to find a solution, already followed a couple of step-by-step possible solution (deleted local calendars, took off iClound accoun from iCal, deleted all files on specific folders in my library), but anything work out. It just don't work anymore.
    Scary...
    I have just quit iCal and started using iCloud as my main input way for may events.... Wonder if anyone else is facing something like this and if is there any sollution out there.
    Thanks a lot in advance and sorry for my bad English.

    i have a similar problem. i can't add any new events to my ical. i can do it on ical on icloud but not on the ical on my itouch. i can't edit them either. it tells me the event can not be saved because a calendar has not been chosen. it was working just fine yesterday and now it won't work.
    i'm new to this on line community stuff. i posted my questions but i don't know how i'm supposed to see any answers. i guess it doesn't matter that i even ask you this or reply to you because i don't plan to be able to see any comments to this. oh well. computer stuff is just crap  sometimes. i guess we have to learn to deal with it.
    my paper calendar NEVER gave me any problems. i would just pull out my trusty pen and write down my appointment and wallah! it was done. it wouldn't get erased or deleted or stop working.

  • Invitees option not available in new events with Exchange activesync cal

    I have an Iphone running OS 3.1 and a Google apps calendar that supports Exchange Active Sync.
    I have setup a calendar account as Exchange Active Sync on my iphone and put in the google mobile sync server address (m.google.com).
    When I create a new event on the iphone I do not see the option for invitees to invite others to my meeting.
    I know this works because other people in my office have this same setup and can sync and send meetings via our corporate google calendar app.
    Any suggestions?

    Hi there!
        It sounds like you're having a more complicated problem than I was, but just in case anyone out there is in the same boat, here's the solution (which I wasn't able to find in any forums thus far) to a simple problem I was having.
    If you're using a single email account with iOS 7 on a device like an iPad 2, you've hit the cancel button on an email and selected "Save Drafts," but later realized that you're unable to find the draft folder anywhere, then the fix is actually pretty simple. All you have to do is open your email account,  hit the "Mailboxes" tab in the top left corner, tap the "Edit" button (to the right of the "Mailboxes" header), select "Add Mailbox" from the first section, and then just tap "Drafts" and "Done."
        Afterwards, just go to your Mailboxes tab and you should see the draft folder listed, in which will be whatever drafts you've saved so far.
    Hope that's helpful! :)

  • 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".

  • Transfer new events from iPod?

    I have iCal at home and work. I don't want a .mac account and it seems like I should be able to sync my calenders with my iPod, i just can't figure out how to do it.
    When I open the Calendars folder on my iPod in Finder and open one of the iSync calendar files there, it switches to iCal and the message "This calendar contains new events. Please select a destination calendar." But there aren't any new events and when I select a destination calendar, it duplicates the events already listed (because they are already on iCal and on my iPod).
    It seems like there should be a way to import only new events so they are not duplicated over and over. Any one know of one?

    The calendars that you see in the folder marked "Calendar" on your iPod all have names that start with ISync. They are files of your individual calendars, and you will only see them on your iPod. You won't see these files in your computer. You'll see them in your Finder window because it shows you what is in your iPod's hard drive, if you've checked "enable disk use" in your iPod's preferences in iTunes. Think of them as copies of what you have done so far in each of your individual calendars. I still think of calendar as meaning everything on my calendar, but iCal sees calendar as meaning each subject or category of the whole database. The database is everything, all of the categories you have in iCal. The ISync file for a specific calendar/category is everything you have in each individual category up to the point that you sync your iPod with your computer.
    If someone wanted to copy just their "Work" calendar/category to a computer at work, they could import the ISync-Work.ics file from their iPod's "Calendars" folder to their computer at the office. That sounds like what you have described. It wouldn't add or update just one event, though, as you've discovered. It will import everything that's in that category. This is good if you don't want your personal calendars from your home computer or your iPod copied to your work computer. However, if someone did need all of their calendars, everything in their other computer's iCal from home copied to the work computer, then using iCal to make a back up is the better choice. I make a back up of my iCal to my computer regularly just in case I need it for any reason. If I want to have everything the same on my work computer, I can use my iPod's hard drive like a flash drive or portable drive. I can then go to iCal on the other computer, and choose "Revert to Database Backup". Technically, that means to go back to a previously saved version of everything you had in iCal. You could revert to iCal as you had it last year, last month, or yesterday. But you can also "revert" to the backup you made this morning or five minutes ago. It's puts in everything that was backed up to that point. Even if I am only updating one event, this takes very little time to do it this way. At this time, I don't know that there are any other options, other than the way you've been doing it and the way I've described. It's important to note, also, that If you've deleted events from one computer, the other computer is going to be exactly the same as the first, if you go this route.
    It also sounds like it is time for iCal to get some kind of update to better meet people's current needs. We'll just have to wait for Apple or someone else to create an update or write a program that gives iCal more flexibility!

  • Calendar events gone and cannot input new events

    I just uploaded the newest update for my Iphone 4, and now all of my previously entered calendar events are missing. Also I can not input any new events into my calendar. Help! I had important appointments saved there and now there gone!!!

    Try a reset: hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until you see the apple, then let go. (No data loss)

  • ICal un-publishes every time I write a new event

    Every time I write a new event in iCal it un-publishes it, even if I check the box for "publish events automatically." What is wrong? What do I have to do so I don't have to keep publishing it every time?

    Greetings,
    1. First make an iCal backup:  Click on each calendar on the left hand side of iCal 1 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. 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.
    Once the computer is back up and running open iCal and test.
    Hope that helps.

  • Flag and new event

    Can multiple photos be flagged from different events and saved to a new event at the same time keeping the flagged photos in their original events?

    No
    a specific photo can only exist in one event
    If you duplicated the photos in the source event then flagged the new one (actually either one) you could do taht - you would, of course double the storage used for those photos winch there are now two of each - and any edits, =delete, etc would only operate on the one you did it to leaving the other copy alone (maybe what you intend?)

  • When I sync my iPod to my MacBook through iTunes new events do not show up and old events are not deleted. I am using Snow Leopard  and not iSync.

    I am using Snow Leopard on a MacBook. I have an iPod touch 3G. I do not use iSync it Mobile Me. When I sync my iPod through iTunes new events on my iPod do not show up on my Mac and old events do not delete. I have read help instructions that include deleting the data on the iPod. The iPod has the correct data and the Mac does not so I have not followed those instructions. I need help as the only reason I bought the Mac was to be able to sync, back up, view and print my calendar. Currently it is useless. If only Apple could have learned from the elegance of the Palm software.

  • How do I change: when I double click on a day to add a new event it defaults to All Day and Busy

    iCal 5.0.2 (1571) Is there any way to change this? I can't do it in preferences.
    This is a real pain. To make an event for a specific time I have to double click again, uncheck "All Day" and then put in the time for the start of the event. Even then, if I put in the start time, the end time remains at 6:30 PM, so I have to change that too.
    If I really do want an All Day event, why does it sometimes default to Busy, rather than always to Free?
    The old iCal was far superior in this regard; double click once on a day and the add an event dialogue box appears, defaulting to a time close to when you were making the event, and, if my memory serves correct observing the preference I set with respect to default length of the event.
    I'm aware that Command N gets me a new Quick Event, its a bit better in that if the event i enter opens the big "add an event dialogue box", it has defaulted to an hour long event. But, if I click on a day, and then hit Command N, the new event is put in Today, and not the day I had selected. It also defaults to All Day, unless I put in a time for the event in the Quick Event box.  Why would I do that when I know I want to enter info into a number of fields, and doing so is easiest from the big dialogue box. If i don't enter a time in Quick Event, or enter a day, I still have to double click the event that was created by Quick Event to open the big dialogue box, and start fresh entering everything.  So, I find Quick Event's implimentation cumbersome, overall ending up with more keystrokes and clicks to enter the details I normally enter, than the old iCal.
    So, if someone knows how to change the double click behaviour back to the old way, or how to get Quick Event to open the dialogue box on the day i have already selected, any help will be appreciated.
    Also, is there some way to get this feedback to Apple? Support SiteMap doesn't show a link for feedback.
    Thanks
    Ian

    I have sort of the exact same problem. Extremely far away from user friendly
    I have an second issue as well: When I hook off all-day it comes up with an 8 hour event!
    And then if I put in a late start hour it pushes end time to next day due to the 8 hour event suggestion.
    All in all this gives a lot of changes just to enter an event.
    Command N
    I learnt from your input to use this fuction. At least that comes up with a one hour event as default.

  • Unable to add new event in iCal

    OK, this may be a total newbie question, as this is only my 2nd day with a Mac, but I can't add an event in iCal.
    My calendar is a Google Calendar, and I have successfully set this up in iCal (I can see all my events). However, I can't find a way to add an event! The File > New Event is greyed out, and the keyboard shortcut doesn't work either.
    I'm guessing it's got something to do with how I've set things up, but I have no idea where to go from here.

    Solved! Needed to check "Show All Day Events" in the View menu!

  • Unable to add new event in iCal, Lion 10.7.1

    Hi,
    On Lion 10.7.1, I can't seem to add new events to iCal.
    I have tried the following:
    1. 2-finger click on a day in the month-view. This pops out the menu and I can click on 'New Event', but after that, nothing happens.
    2. Clicking on the '+' button at the top. This pops out the 'Create Quick Event' window. After typing in a new event and hitting return, nothing happens.
    I can create a new event in the 'Day' and 'Week' view though.
    iCal was working fine for me last week, but it seems to be broken since yesterday. I'm not sure if it stopped working after the 10.7.1 update.
    Thanks for any guidance or assistance!
