Searching for Old Calendar Appointments

I keep my full Calendar with all my old appointments on my iPad. As such, I have appointments going back 4 or more years. I routinely have to look up dates of some of these older appointments, yet I can't find a way to tell the iPad to search/find them. According to any documentation that I can find, it says that SpotLight Search will only search 1 year in the past and 1 year in the future. However, even if I search for a phrase using the search bar in the Calendar, it will not find these old appointments. Does anyone know of a setting that needs to be changed or how this can be done?
Thanks,
Merg

Hi QTsearcher, I had the same problem, and am now running Myst on Windows 98SE along with Riven and Exile. If you have games from the same era as Myst, i.e. the same time or up to a year later, check the folders and files that come up when you get ready to install them, some have QT programs that you can install alone without installing the game. After you install the QT, then install the Myst and it will find the version that it wants... This is what I did, and it worked for me.
Good Luck

I have 3 older ext. hard drives that I've utilized many times. Today while searching for old files, one of the three is no longer recognized by my PowerMac. Any suggestions?

I have 3 older ext. hard drives that I've utilized many times. Today while searching for old files, one of the three is no longer recognized by my PowerMac. The drive is not listed in Disk Utility. Any suggestions?

Is the computer in you equipment line:
Dual Core Intel Xenon
(which is not a PowerMac but a Mac Pro) the one you are asking about, or do you have an older PowerMac?
If a Mac Pro, their forums are here:
Mac Pro
and, as Mac Pros have a totally different architecture from the pre-2005 Macs this forum covers, you may not have the same issues that can affect the older models. If someone didn't notice your equipment line, you could get advice that doesn't apply.
If you really have a pre-2005 PowerMac, read on.
If the stubborn external is USB and does not have its own power brick (i.e., it gets power only from the computer's UBS ports--"bus powered"), it may not be getting enough power. As electric motors age, they can demand more power than when new, and the power available on any USB port is limited.
The typical workabouts to making a computer recognize an aging, bus-powered USB drive are:
Get a powered USB hub (has its own power brick
Get a "Y" USB cable: 1 Meter USB 2.0 A to 5 Pin Mini B Cable - Auxiliary USB "Y" Power Design for external hard drives.
The second gets power from two USB ports on the computer and often that's enough.
Remember that the USB ports on your keyboard seldom provide enough power even for a thumb drive, so be sure to use the USB ports on the back of the computer.

Possible to Search for a Calendar

Somehow I ended up with Calendars named "Untitled", "Untitled 2" and "Untitled 3". I don't know how these showed up and don't know what events could be associated with them. Don't want to just delete these Calendars without knowing what they have in them.
Is it possible to search for all events within a particular Calendar? Or maybe organize/sort events by Calendar?

smilingdog,
Enter the " character in the iCal Search field which is located in the upper right hand corner of the iCal window. When you do that you will be presented with a results pane in the bottom of the iCal window. The results pane will have four columns at the top (Calendar/Date/Type/Title). Click on the "Calendar" column to see the results organized by specific calendars.
Alternately, you can (⌘ + click) on any calendar in the "CALENDARS" source pane to deselect all calendars, then the calendar that you want to display, and enter the " character in the search field. That will display only the entries associated with that particular calendar.
As a side note, the search field has a magnifying glass icon with a small down arrow which can be used to specify what items to search in.

Searching for old emails

Hi
In one of the email account i have "Day to keep Meesages" is set to 90 days, if i have to search for older mails (More than 90 days) how can i do that.
Austin

For an Active Sync email email account, you shoudl be able to search remotely.
If IMAP, POP etc., you will need to probably search from your PC on the webmail host.

Alerts for recurring calendar appointments do not go off

Does anyone else have this issue? I have a bunch of recurring calendar events, set up in Outlook 2010, which the iPhone 4 used to show alerts for. Now (not sure when this started, but w/in last few months) there aren't any alerts even though I can see "1 day before" in the iPhone Calendar app for the recurring event. I even made a slight change to the recurring event in hopes of getting them back on track but no luck. Thanks.

I'm having the exact same issue with my iPhone 4 (iOS 4.3.3, 4.3.4 and 4.3.5). I'm a new user (this is my first iPhone, bought one month ago), so I can't comment on earlier iOS versions. In the one month that I have the phone, I'm absolutely sure that I have never had an alert from a recurring event. I only noticed it a couple of weeks ago. I'm only using all-day events (for anniversaries, etc.), so I'm not sure if the same applies to other types of events.
I have made several tests and I can confirm that no alerts are generated for recurring all-day events. Something is seriously messed up in the Calendar App algorithms. At first I thought it had to do with MS Outlook 2007, whose calendar is synced with the iPhone. But when I create a recurring all-day event directly on the iPhone I get exactly the same behaviour (no alert, no pop-up, no sound, nothing). I can see the event on Calendar on the iPhone, and I can also see the alert settings (the time it should be generated, e.g., "Alert: 2 hours before"). So everything looks OK on the iPhone, but the alerts are never generated. I also did a test with a non-recurring all-day event, and everything worked fine (I got the alert pop-up and sound at the time I specified). This means that it's something specific to recurring events. Finally, I restored the iPhone to factory defaults and tried again by creating a recurring event directly on the untouched, factory-reset iPhone. Same thing, no alerts, no pop-ups, no sound, nothing.
This is clearly a serious bug in the Calendar App and I'm very surprised that Apple has not released an update to fix it. Also, I couldn't find much information on the Internet about this issue. That's why I'm replying to this thread, to let you and others know that you are not alone. I asked a friend of mine who is running iOS 5 Beta 2 and he said that everything works fine, so I guess we'll have to wait for iOS 5 to fix the issue.
I hope this helps someone out there. If anyone running iOS 4.3.3 or later is having the same problem, please reply here. Most of all, I hope that the guys at Apple read this and do something about it.

Quicktime inst error searching for old drive

Please help,
I am using win xp, trying to re-install itunes/qt 10, after replacing bad hard-drive. My old hard drive had 4 partitions on it d,e,f and g. I originally installed itunes/qt on drive g. My new drive only has one partition drive d. I have removed all apple installations including bonjour using windows installion cleanup utility, etc. I have cleaned up the registry. I tried to install qt as a stand alone and itunes/qt setup. For some reason both installations stall because "drive g is an invalid location" and does not complete. Is there a way to trick the installation to choose a valid location? or a work around?

Excellent news, xo.
In QuickTime install contexts, messages mentioning the \lib\ directories can be associated with trouble with your Java runtime on the PC. (There's a QTJava.zip file that the QuickTime installers and existing .msi databases can look for in your Java program files, and that \lib\ folder is in the Java program files.) So it might be worth also checking to see if your Java runtime is currently up to date. (Updating the Java on the PC often gets people past \lib\ errors.)

LV search for old dll names while launching application

Hi,
I have changed some dll that I use in a LabVIEW Programm. To follow the changes to make in my Vi's step by step, I changed the name of the dlls one after the other, so that I get broken arrays. Then I adapted my Vi's to those new dlls and linked the new dll names to the vi's. Then, I changed the dll names again in order to reuse the initial dll names. And loaded them again while loading my vi's. All goes well so far.
After a while, I used the Aplication Builder to make an exe and an install version. All goes well. After the Application installation (which also worked well),
when I launch the Application, the programm always asks me for those other dll names (and not the initial ones which I reused at last).
Thanks a lot for any Help.
By the way, I use LV6.0.2 with Windows 2000.

It is entirely possible that you missed one DLL call. Check again. You can try doing a text search in your hierarchy for the names of the DLLs.
Another thing to check is your ini file (created for all executables - usually called labview.ini or "application name".ini and is located on the root directory, or your target directorty. If you have removed all references to the DLLs, try deleting it from this file, if its there.

Wifi sync searching for old wireless network

I believe a wireless sync on my iPod Touch was started on a hotel's network sometime last year and it must have gotten interupted and is now apparently only willing to resume the wireless sync (or commence a new wireless sync) if and when it finds that hotel's wireless network again. I have tried disabling wireless sync, restarting itunes and device and re-enabling wireless sync but no luck. Anyone have this issue and figure out a solution? One thing I have thought of is renaming my wireless network but ... I would prefer not to because that will just confuse all my other devices.

I finally realized that I incorrectly identified the issue. It apparenlty was looking for the computer and unable to find it.... I had to turn Internet sharing on to make it work. So, if I am tethered to my macbook, it works fine but if I am just on the same wifi network, it's a no go.

Icloud on my pc not offering a " search " for in calendar? Is it eluding me or am i chasing unicorns.

Is it eluding me or are they not offering it on icloud ?

What is the exact error message?

I can't seem to access new mail on my I pad . I can only see strings of messages that are related to each other. I also have lost the ability to search for messages that are no longer on display on my I pad.

I cannot seem to access properly any more the new e mail messages on my I pad. I can only see strings of messages that relate to each other.
Also I cannot search for old messages that have now disappeared . The search bar has disappeared.
Tom

Try a reset: hold down the home button along with the power button until you see the Apple, then let go.

Spotlight search for email

If I do a spotlight search (IOS7.02) on a phrase I get a hit on an email but I cannot find this email in any of my accounts - inboxes, sent or trash. Any ideas?

I have the same issue. Just received a new MacBook Air with our Corporate image on it. I recovered my old data onto it and setup Outlook 2011 and Mail but Spotlight doesn't search in either one anymore. On my old MacBook with Mountain Lion on it, it worked just fine. I've tried the suggestions of deleting the index files using the Terminal app and I tried the adding and deleting the HD in Privacy settings in Spotlight Preferences and rebooting, but still nothing.
Help please. Driving me crazy not being able to search for old emails.
Thanks in advance for any help.

Lumia 720 - cannot enter a heading for a calendar ...

After the latest updates I can no longer add a header for my calendar appointments, the field simply does not get activated. I can enter the location and all additional information but the heading. Makes updating my appointmens quite impossible, as you can imagine. Any ideas, anyone?

802.11a is at 5GHz, however, your specific phone model neither supports 802.11a nor 802.11n in 5GHz. Only 802.11n in 2.4GHz, 802.11g in 2.4GHz, and 802.11b in 2.4GHz is supported.

I need to able to search for calendar entries that are over one year old.

I am an old Palm OS user and have used the calendar on it to track my clients visits/service for the last 15 years. By searching the customers name on the palm, it would bring up every entry I had keyed in for them, so I could immediately know how old their equipment was, what service had been done, etc. I also used the calendar to track my daily and weekly sales. I was disappointed to find that the ipad does not search for any entries older than one year. Is there something that can fix this or is there an app that could be used in the way the palm was? Thanks

Well, that would depend on what calendar you are using.
If you are simply relying on the calendar on the device, well, that's not very smart. Restoring from backup should put everything back.
If the calendar is synced with another service, like Google, iCloud, Exchange, do the entires still exist there?
If the calendar is synced with Outlook or iCal on your computer, do the entries still exist there?

Searching for event on calendar?

i just switched from the palm and on the palm - i could do a search and it would let me search for a meeting on the blackberry- if i had a meeting with susan- i could search susan and it would give me a list of all future and past appointments i had with her.
can i do the same thing on my blackberry? it would make life alot easier.

If you select the search icon it will let you select where you want to search, messages, calendar, address book, memopad, or tasks.
