Select multiple days for recurring event?

Hi,
I have a recurring event (days when I am scheduled to work) at various days throughout each month- not recurring on a regular basis. It's tedious to select each day and then enter "on call" for each day. I'm looking for some way to select multiple days throughout the month and then have that same event entered for all of them. Perhaps with automator or an applescript? Thanks.

Hi Arthur,
It would be quite possible to write a solution to this problem with Applescript. If you're interested in this option go to www.nhoj.co.uk and send me an email.
Best wishes
John Maisey

  • How do I select multiple contacts for an e-mail?

    Using an iMac and wondering how to send an e-mail to multiple people in my contact list without having to open the contact list every time I select a name.  It would be nice if I could just open the contact list and select multiple people for the same e-mail.  Does anyone know how to do this?

    Hi there Kathy, The easiest way is Window (along the menu bar) > Address Pannel, then you can select multipul contacts and then click the "To:" Button in the top left of the window.
    (Tip: You can use comand and click to select multipul at once, then click the "To:" button in the top left)

  • Alerts for recurring events in iCal no longer display on iPhone after iOS5 upgrade

    That pretty much says it.  I have a daily meeting in my iCal, with two alarms set, one for 15 minutes before and one for 5 minutes before.  The alerts no longer display on my phone after the upgrade.  (They appear on my Mac no problem.)  Has anyone else seen this problem?  I have notifications turned on for iCal , set to Alerts.  Tried badges, tried turning notifications off then on, to no avail.  It doesn't display for recurring events that were in my calendar before the upgrade and for those created after the upgrade.  I don't seem to have a problem with regular i.e. non-recurring events.  Doesn't seem to matte also if it is the default calendar or a different calendar either.  (I tried Reminders and that worked fine, but I don't want to have type all of my recurring events in to iCal and then in to Reminders as well....)
    Thanks very much

    I'm having the same problem on my iMac (works on a different phone on my MBP). I restored the iphone and no dice. I'm also constantly getting a beach ball... Hope someone out there knows a workaround.

  • Unable to select multiple images for upload

    I have Windows 7 Pro and FF 9.0
    I have an online store and am always uploading product photos for items I have listed. I recently switched from XP Pro to Windows 7 Pro. I had no issues with XP. However, now that I have Windows 7 Pro I am unable to select multiple images for upload when using FF. I can only select one image at a time.
    The issue is unique to FF. I have tried in several other browsers, and FF is the only one that I am unable to select multiple images from.
    I had FF 8.0.1 and upgraded to 9.0... hoping that would resolve the issue. It did not. I have restarted my computer several times which has also had no effect.

    Hi,
    Welcome to the    Discussions
    I see it is about 6 hours since you posted, so I guess you will get this when you wake. (I'll be sleeping then)
    This would be better asked in the forum for Using Leopard inside the Leopard Category sating which browser and which site it was.
    (it probably made lots of sense to you when you were typing it but it seems a little short in facts or workable info.)

  • Dispatch center - Select multiple tasks for scheduling at the same time

    Hi!
    I need a consultation regarding Dispatch center. Is there a functionality to select multiple tasks for scheduling at the same time for one resource?
    Please, guys, this is urgent.
    Jan

    You can schedule a single task or multiple tasks automatically directly from the
    dispatch center. The scheduling criteria applied come from Advanced Scheduler.
    Make Sure, you have the advanced scheduler. With out Advanced Scheduler and by just using Advice, you can only assign one task at a time.

  • How can I select multiple clips in the event browser?

    I can't seem to figure out how to do something that should be pretty simple. I want to select multiple clips in the event browser that aren't next to each other. Right now it's only letting me select the two clips with every other clip in between. Is there a keyboard function that will allow me to deselect the clips in between while leaving the two on the outside selected? In Apple's finder you can do this with files by holding down shift-command while clicking on the ones you want. Or is there away to rearrange clips in the event browswer?
    I'd like to be able to create a multicam clip, but there is always going to be other media in between the clips I want to combine, so how can I select only the clips I want?
    Thanks!

    Holding the Command key should let you select non-contiguous items, just as in the Finder.

  • AppleScript for recurring events in Outlook calendar

    I'm trying to write an AppleScript that will create a new appointment with properties that are derived from the properties of a specific appointment that is part of a recurring series in an Outlook calendar.
    Outlook 14.2.5
    AppleScript Editor version 2.3
    In the Microsoft Outlook window in the editor, the calendar event help information shows two distinct properties:
    is recurring (boolean, r/o):  Indicates whehter an event is part of a recurring series of events.    (the typo in "whehter" is actually in the help information!)
    is occurrence (boolean, r/o) : Indicates whether an event is an occurrence of a recurring series
    I don't understand the difference between these two.  If I have a series of appointment (say one meeting every day for three days), and I have selected the second appointment in that series, "is occurrence" is false, but "is recurring" is true.  What is the difference?
    My ultimate objective is to extract the start time of the specific appointment that is selected, but when I use the "start time" property of the selection (the second appointment in the series of three appointments), my script is returning the start date/time of the first appointment in the series.
    set selectedEvent to selection
    set startTime to start time of selectedEvent   <-- this is returning the start time of the first appointment in the series - not the start time of the particular occurrence that is selected in the calendar (which is what I actually want)

  • How do I set up multiple alerts for one event?

    So, I'm currently using MS Exchange to sync my google calendar with my iphone5, and almost everything's working pretty nicely, events would get pushed to my phone right away as I put it on my computer. But the thing is, my phone will only alert me for the earliest alert if I had multiple alerts set up for one event on google calendar. How can I fix it? Any advice would be appreciated!

    I have a similar issue with a slight twist.
    I have 'My Card' setup properly, however, I do have 5 email addresses that I use and these are listed on 'My Card'.  When I select the option to add an email alert on a calendar event, the app is picking up two addresses from the set of 5 and makes me pick one.
    I would like to select one of the other addresses to be the default for sending out the alerts.  Is there a way to do that.  If it is helpful, the app is picking up 2 of the 'Work' email addresses.  I don't know if the home vs work designation would make a difference.
    Note: I am looking for a solution to pick one a specific address from the contact card to send out the alert email.  I am NOT looking to have a discussion as to why I have 5 addresses.
    Thanks

  • Selecting Default Calendar for New Events

    Is there a way to select one of my iCal calendars to be the default when creating new events? I use one of my calendars every day using my iPhone at work for work events, and keep creating new events to the wrong calendar (which is currently set as my default)! It is very frustrating, as once the event is created, I can't change the associated calendar until I get home and can do it from my desktop.
    Thanks!!

    Tod,
    On your iPhone select: Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>Default Calendar>Choose.

  • Syncing ical creates multiple entries for same event

    I'm sure this is common. I cal sync creates multiple enties for the same event. Any way to work around this?
    Also, duplicate calendars are on the Iphone (2 for inbox)  can one be deleted? 

    I think I know what can help. I also support Mac users in a mixed environment, and find that being able to access a Windows machine to test settings for my iCal users is very very helpful. If you do not have one, I could also fix this one by adding the user's account to my one Mac that runs Entourage.
    On a PC: set up one of the problem accounts in Outlook, then go to Tools->Options & click on the Delegates tab. Click on a Delegate name (if they all have the same permission level, you can select all), then click the Permissions button. If the delegate have "Editor" permissions, there will be a little checked box that sends the delegate copies of all those meetings. De-select it.
    Lemme know if you want Entourage instructions or if that does it for you.
    The real question, of course, is why are there so many Exchange functions that iCal can't touch. Grrrr....

  • Multiple Alarms for 1 Event

    Keep getting multiple alarms (usually 3) popping up for each event in ical. I go into the event and edit it down to 1 alarm but that is not fixing problem. I just updated to 10.5.5 and it is still happening. Any suggestions?

    You can only assign directly one location to each event, but each photo in the event may be assigned to an individual location. When you display the event in places you will see all the different locations.

  • Select multiple channels for one task - control and shift keys don't work

    Hi,
    Following advice from several other posts, I'm trying to select multiple physical channels  from the dropdown list so that I can then use the "unflatten channel string" function later on. It looks like if I hold down either shift or cntrl I should be able to select multiple channels from the list, however, this doesn't work for me. I tried going into the "key navigations" property for the task channel control but it doesn't have any associations listed. Has anyone else come across this and found a fix?  I have previously got around this by stating multiple channels with a colon (eg. ai1:3) but this doesn't work for the unflatten function.
    Thanks, 
    Claire.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Thanks for your reply Dennis, I see what you mean, unfortunately that doesn't solve my problem so I'm missing something else. I've attached my VIs. I expected that the output from the unflattenstring block would be an array of either the channel references or the names I had given them, and that therefore the "array size" in the 4th pane would be "9" (equal to the number of channels).  Instead the output is a an "unnamed task#(some number)" when I look at it with a probe. Perhaps I'm misunderstanding how the task naming works?
    THanks, 
    Claire.

  • Selecting multiple address for 1 email

    Selecting multiple email addresses for a single email has become much more tedious. Is there any way to go through the contact list and quickly select the multiple addresses and then have them applied to the email like it was in Mavericks, and Mountain Lion?

    Try going to System Preferences/Notifications and drag Mail to the Not in Notifications Center. Log out/in and then re-add it to Notifications .

  • Select Multiple Folders for Keywording

    I'm trying to select multiple folders in the catalog simultaneously in order to add the same Keywords to all of the photos in all of the selected folders without having to do it folder by folder. But although the folders are shown as selected in Navigator, nothing shows up in the main view, and the Keywords section is grayed out. Is there any way of doing this?

    Hm... Lightroom remembers filter setting individually for each folder and even for group of folders. So, even if you can see pictures in one folder and see pictures in the other folder, it could be that a combination of both has a filter applied.
    Try unchecking
    i Enable Filters
    from the Library menu while you have multiple folders selected.
