Setting end time for calendar events

I am using icloud on my pc adding events to my calendar when you set the start time it gives you a drop down menu for end time but it only goes 3 hours out is there a way to set it so you get more than a 3 hour window without manually typing the time in

You have to change your time zone to Arabia Standard Time. It will help you now.

Have problem setting Email alerts for Calendar events. Warning message says I need to set up a card in Contacts with my email. I do but it doesn't recognize it. How do I indicate the email I want alerts sent to?

The system of setting up email alerts for Calendar events worked fine in Snow Leopard but since I upgraded to Mt. Lion Calendar won't let me set email alerts. When I try, I get an error message saying I need to set up a card in Contacts for my email. I have a card set up in Contacts for both of my email addresses but it doesn't recognize them. Perhaps the name I have on the card doesn't match a name that Calendar is looking for. Calendar doesn't seem to have a way in Preferences or elsewhere to indicate the email I want alerts sent to. Any ideas how I can get this system working again? Thanks for your help.

You might want to consider starting a new discussion. Since this one is marked solved, less people are likely to look at it. You can link to this one.
See if another contact is marked as this is my card.

Setting a profile for calendar event

I would love to be able to set a certain profile for a calendar item. Surely with everything a BB can do it do this and I am just missing the setting.
Any help? Thanks,
Randy

I doubt if you can have such a profile setting. But, you can use the car hands-free to use voice-dialling, instead of scrolling up to the contacts to make calls. Also, you can set up the hands-free profile to answer calls automatically (Settings -> Enhancements -> Car kit -> Auto answer = on). This means, once you connect your phone to the car-kit, you will be able to answer calls without pressing any buttons - neither in the phone or in the car-kit.

How to Set A Default Start Time For New Events In Calendar?

How to Set A Default Start Time For New Events In Calendar?

John,
Thanks for that suggestion - could not get it to work. However, I did manage a different approach. I finally determined the sequence of events in terms of how the various events and listeners fire (I think).
Basically, the CalendarActivityListener fires, followed by the listener associated with the Calendar object's Create facet, followed finally by the CalendarEventListener - the final is where the TriggerEvent is available and then finally, control is passed to the popup/dialog in the Create facet. So, my approach of trying to set/get the TriggerDate in the user's HTTP session was doomed to failure because it was being get before it had been set :(
Anyway, I ended up adding a bit of code to the CalendarEvent listener - it grabs the current BindingContext, navigates through the DCBindingContainer to derive an Iterator for the ViewObject which drives the calendar and then grabs the currently active row. I then do a few tests to make sure we're working with a "new" row because I don't want to alter start & end dates associated with an existing calendar entry and then I define the Start and End dates to be the Trigger Date.
Works just fine. Snippet from the listener follows
BindingContext bindingContext = BindingContext.getCurrent();+
*if ( bindingContext != null ) {*+
DCBindingContainer dcBindings = (DCBindingContainer) bindingContext.getCurrentBindingsEntry();+
DCIteratorBinding iterator = dcBindings.findIteratorBinding("EventsView1Iterator");+
Row currentRow = iterator.getCurrentRow();+
if ( currentRow.getAttribute("StartDate") == null)+
currentRow.setAttribute("StartDate", calendarEvent.getTriggerDate());+
if (currentRow.getAttribute("EndDate")==null)+
currentRow.setAttribute("EndDate", calendarEvent.getTriggerDate());+
*}*

How to set a default start and/or end date for New Events based on trigger date.

I'm using the CalendarActivityListener to get current row when clicking on an existing event. As per previous posts this listener gives you access to event detail including Start Date, End Date, etc.
However, what I want to do is to default the start (and end) dates for New Events based on the trigger date.
I've tried the CalendarListener and can grab the Trigger Date from it - however, I can't see a way to pass this directly to the popup/dialog I'm using to create the new event.
At present I'm putting the TriggerDate into the ADFContext session scope e.g. ADFContext.getCurrent().getSessionScope().put("TriggerDate",calendarEvent.getTriggerDate());
Then, I've tried multiple approaches to try and "get" the TriggerDate from session scope to drop it into my new Calendar Event basically, I'm trying to default the InputField(s) associated with the Start Date using the value from the session - I've tried
1. setting the default value for the InputField in the jspx using a binding expression i.e. value="#{sessionScope.TriggerDate}" - this actually sets the value appropriately when the jspx is rendered but, when I go to create I get a NPE and I can't debug. I assumed that it might be a Date type issue - it would appear that CalendarListener provides a date of type java.util.Date and that the StartDate attribute of my VO/EO/table is a DATE and therefore requires oracle.jbo.domain.Date so I tried casting it - to no effect
2. Using a Groovy expression *(StartDate==null?adf.context.sessionScope.TriggerDate:StartDate)* in my calendar's EventVO to default the Start Date to the same result
Any thoughts or ideas?

How do I set the default time for calendar alerts?

How do I set the default time for calendar alerts? I always want to have an alert 15 minutes before my appointments. I don't want to have to manually set it each time I make an appointment (I just moved to iphone from a windows mobile where this was basic stuff so I apologise if this is a noob question).

I have the same issue. I've searched these forums and found lots of people who have asked this same question, but nobody who has received an answer.
About a year ago, I migrated from a Windows PC and a Blackberry (both of which had very simple default alert options) to a MacBook Pro and an iPhone and have yet to find a solution on this forum or from any of my Apple-savvy friends. Very discouraging.

39L4363D - Unable to set padding time for recording start and end time

Hello,
I have a problem with my 39L4363DG tv (Software 7.1.90.34.01.1).
I'm not able the set padding time for recording start and/or end time as described in the [manual|http://www.toshiba-om.net/LCD/PDF/English/L4363-323950-English.pdf] on page 51. Both menu item "start padding time" and "end padding time" are disabled?
Can anyone help me and give me an advice on how to solve it?

Hi
The padding time can be set for programmed recording.
There is also an scheduling priority
If scheduled time slots are next to each other and there is more than one minute between the end time of the first schedule and the start time of the next schedule, programmed recording will be performed correctly.
When +Start Padding Time+ and +End Padding Time+ are set, the start time and end time will be the time plus the additional minutes.
If scheduling times overlap, priority will be given to the programmed recording which starts first.
When the programmed recording that started first ends, recording will switch to the next scheduled programme.
At this time, depending on how far the scheduling times overlap, the beginning section of the next scheduled programme may not be recorded.

Outlook to iPhone sync failure – Sync suddenly stopped working for calendar events but continued for contacts and notes.   Finally Fixed!!! SUPPORT TEAM – PLEASE SEE THIS – Complete explanation of cause and correction steps.

The issue: Outlook to iPhone sync failure – Sync suddenly stopped working for calendar events but continued for contacts and notes.   Finally Fixed!!!
SUPPORT TEAM – PLEASE SEE THIS – Complete explanation of cause and correction steps.
The cause: It is now clear what caused this problem. For years I had several “all-day” events in my Outlook calendar (birthdays, anniversaries, etc.). In May 2012 I decided to make some of them one hour events so I could add alerts to remind me of the event. I did this by dragging them in Outlook to the time I wanted and expanding them to the time slot desired and then adding the alarm.
The symptom: Syncing stopped working for the calendar but continued working for contacts and notes. I didn’t realize sync was failing until months later when I missed two very important phone calls, so when I noticed it the cause was not obvious.
The failed attempts: I’m head of a software firm and my calendar sync is a crucial to my business life so I took this on with a vengeance. From a quick look at events in Outlook and the iPhone I could see that the problem started in May 2012. Events before May were in both Outlook and the iPhone but events after May were only one or the other. Unfortunately I had changed several other things at the same time relating to other events so again the cause was not obvious. MANY calls with AppleCare proved them incompetent so my internal IT guys assisted trying many things. We tried a huge number of calendar changes and several versions of iTunes, iPhone OS and Office as well as both iPhone 4 and 5, all without success.
The fix: After 18 months of frustration, MANY hundreds of $ expense and MANY hours of wasted time I saw a blog that had a calendar sync problem and it indicated all day events were related. I changed the display of the Outlook calendar to the list view, added columns so I could see “all day” event check marks as well as times of events, sorted on the “all day” event column to move them to the top, and for all events that were “all day” events AND had a start and end time, I removed recurrence and then added the annual recurrence back…
After I fixed all events that had BOTH “all day” set and had a start/end time, I tried another sync. It synced for the first time in 18 months!
Problem occurred May 2012 – fixed Nov 2013

Hi, to remove dummy '_ModGrp' entries, rather than crashing the 'Suppr' key on your keyboard, you can use this basic VBA macro (launched for instance from Excel).
It will recursively remove all '_ModGrp...' folders
Sub RemoveFolders_Click()
    Dim oOutlook As Outlook.Application
    Set oOutlook = New Outlook.Application
    Set objNameSpace = oOutlook.GetNamespace("MAPI")
    Call CleanFolders(objNameSpace.Folders)
End Sub
Sub CleanFolders(objFolders As Outlook.Folders)
    For i = objFolders.Count To 1 Step -1
        If Left(objFolders(i).Name, 7) = "_ModGrp" Then
            objFolders.Remove( i )
        Else
            If Not objFolders(i).Folders Is Nothing Then
                Call CleanFolders(objFolders(i).Folders)
            End If
        End If
    Next i
End Sub

Duplicate alarms for calendar events on N9

I noticed I get multiple alarms for calendar events on my N9. For some events, I get four times the same notification. I also sometimes get notifications for deleted events.
I sync my calendar over bluetooth. Since I had some troubles setting up the sync, I deleted the calendar a few times and synced again. So I have the impression that the alarms of the events of the deleted calendars are still stored in some database. I guess this causes the same alarm to be triggered multiple times and alarms for deleted events to be displayed.
Is there a way to re-generate the internal alarms database?
(I did already upgrade to PR1.1, this didn’t fix it.)

I used BT sync with Windows 7 (64 bit), because I was not able to do USB sync (as N9 is not supported by any Nokia PC sync soft). After that I had a real mess: Each event was multiplied to occur multiple times during a day, thoughout each week, throughour each year, e.g. for example meeting scheduled for 10am on October 20, 2011, occurred a number of times on the same day, and each previous week until 2005 (when my calendar starts). An event that was scheduled back in 2005 occurred each week throughout 2011. The same thing happened to my Outlook. So you can imagine a mess that I got with my calendar after syncing with N9. Thanks that I had intact calendar on my Ipad and was able to restore my Outlook. I had to to manually correct calendar on N9 (because any further attempts to sync with Outlook) resulted in the same mess. When I say manually I mean that I deleted all entries (takes time) and re-entered only ones that I really needed (such as birthdays, other anniversaries and meetings from October 2011 forward). After that I did not risk syncing N9 with Outlook anymore in expectation of a decent sync software from Nokia (which I doubt will come, since even their latest soft Nokia Suite is not supporting N9 (although there some users were able to successfully sync with PC Suite, and some installed previous version of Ovi Suite, upgraded it to Nokia Suite and it works now for them -- but not for my very special N9). Having fianlly lost confidence in Noikia I decided to become a happy user of iPhone (with all or at least most soft needed being put in place by Apple or 3rd parties).

How can I stop notifications for calendar events in a shared calendar?

I have a shared iCal calendar in iCloud. I share it with my wife, so she can see my work schedule. It is a bit annoying though that her iPhone keeps doing all my reminders and notifications for calendar events. I want her to able to see and edit my calendar but she'd like very much not to have her phone buzzing all the time.

Andrei1,
     So are you saying that if I, rather than assigning a uint to the column and row number for each tile, just assigned a string to each one in the form "#_#" then I could actually just assign the "adjacent" array directly to it instead of using a generic object to hold those values? In this case, my click event would simply check the indexes, one at a time, of all tiles currently stored in my "selectArr" array against the column/row string in the currently selected tile. Am I correct so far? If I am then let's say that "selectArr" is currently holding five tile coordinates (the user has clicked on five adjacent tiles thus far) and a sixth one is being evaluated now:
Current "selectArr" values:
       1_0
       1_1, 2_1, 3_1
              2_2
New tile clicked:
       1_0
       1_1, 2_1, 3_1
              2_2
              2_3
Coordinate search:
       1_-1
0_0, 1_0, 2_0, 3_0
0_1, 1_1, 2_1, 3_1, 4_1
       1_2, 2_2, 3_2
              2_3
     Essentially what is happening here is that the new tile is checking all four coordinates/indexes belonging to each of the five tiles stored in the "selectArr" array as it tries to find a match for one of its own (which it does for the tile at coordinate 2_2). Thus the new tile at coordinate 2_3 would be marked as valid and added to the "selectArr" array as we wait for the next tile to be clicked and validated. Is this correct?

Alarm for Calendar Events

For calendar events, is there any way to hear the alarm beep through the headphones?
I find it incredibly frustrating that I am unable to hear any event alarms when I'm listening to my music.
I have a 1st Gen iPod Nano.
I hope I'm just missing some very obvious setting...!
Thanks in advance.
Powerbook G4 17 1.33GHz Mac OS X (10.3.9)

Unfortunately, the only options available are "beep", "silent", and "off".
"beep" uses the internal speaker, "silent" just displays a message on the screen, and "off" does neither.
I was hoping that someone would know of a "hack" that might give me what I'm looking for. After all, the menu click noise can be made to go through the headphones, so it's not as if the software cannot handle overlaying two pieces of audio.
Maybe it'll be part of a future software update.....

Can I set a time for music in iTunes to stop

I use an iPad to play my music to an Airplay speaker. I sometimes use the playlist on my iPad and if I want to increase my listening pleasure I would use Remote to play from my entire libray on the iMac.
I've looked but can't seem to find any way of setting a timer for playback. I listen to music at night and rather than have it play the entire night. Dose anyone know of a a utility/app for atimer setting in iTunes?
I believe Apple sould consider this feature for a future addition to iTunes.
Thanks,

It is not yet a built-in feature, but there are quite a few sleep timers around.
For example:
http://en.softonic.com/s/sleep-timer:mac
I have not tried them, however

I like to watch tvcatchup or sky go or I player on my iPad while falling asleep, the problem is that the iPad then stays on all night. I would like to find an app that allows me to set a timer for the iPad to switch itself off automatically.

Does such an app exist? Can anyone help me? Thanks

You can try the Sleep Timer.
