Since iOS 6, my calendar app shows many events as gray with a dashed line around them.  dont mind the lines, but i want my color coding back so i can distinguish between multiple calendars.

How can I make my ipad show the designated calendar color for events? Have tried using ms exchange and gmail...they look identical.  It seems to happen to items I add from my computer or android phone, but not events added from ipad.

Somehow my settings and calendars have gown complicated...I have Microsoft Exchange, Google, AND gmail.  What ended up working was switching all of them off, shutting down my ipad, restarting my ipad, and then choosing one of them to switch back on.  Now all the colors are correct.  Thank you, emdak.

  • I create a new calendar on My mac and share with my wife's mac.  She accepts the sharing but the calendar doesn't show up on her Calendar or her iPhone.

    How can I add a new calendar to my Mac and share it with my wife's Mac.  I execute the normal process and she receives the email and accepts sharing but the new calendar doesn't show up on her mac or iPhone.

    Hi,
    I would point out that I did say...
    Of course the Contacts List has to have people listed in it.
    The Error seems to be that you have not even got an My Card.
    The OS when the computer is brand new and you set up the first Admin Account should create at least once Card entry for the Address Book/Contacts which has the Head and Shoulders icon (the My Card)
    The does presume the the first account on the Mac doers have a person's First name and Last name to work with.
    Of course not everyone sets things up this way.
    Anyhow
    To Check the Contacts List open the app.
    Go to the Preferences.
    Go to the Accounts section.
    This should list at least two "accounts
    One is for Syncing with iCloud and the other is for storing the Info on the Mac itself
    In System Preferences > iCloud you can only set up one Apple ID to be the iCloud ID.
    If you do or have changed this you may have extra accounts in the Contacts > Preferences > Accounts

  • Distinguishing between different calendars?

    Is there a way to distinguish between different calendars from iCal on the Touch?

    Nope.
    Hopefully they will update that in the future. (www.apple.com/feedback)

  • I downloaded an album and it shows up on all my devices but on my iPhone 5 there is the cloud icon on most of the songs but when I tap it nothing happens and I can't play the song.

    I downloaded an album and it shows up on all my devices but on my iPhone 5 there is the cloud icon on most of the songs but when I tap it nothing happens and I can't play the song. All the songs play on my iPad and MacBook. It seems like my iPhone will not let me download the rest of the songs, and I have 3.5 GB of remaining space. Help!

    You're welcome.  I've never set up an alias but according to this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2622,
    "The text you provide becomes the email address ([email protected]). An alias must contain between 3 and 20 characters."
    This certainly implies that the alias is not required to be your registered name, and only becomes the prefix for a new @me.com address.  There might be something going on with the servers right now as they are probably very focused on getting ready for the iPhone 5 pre-order release, which is supposed to happen any minute now.  You might have better luck if you waited a while.

    You can try the 'report a problem' link from your purchase history : log into your account on your computer's iTunes via Store > View My Account and you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it ; click on that and you should see a list of your purchases ; find that app and use the 'Report a Problem' link.

  • Calendar app shows white screen

    After IOS 8.1 upgrade, Calendar App (synced with gmail calendar)shows white screen with plus sign and magnify glass in upper right, nothing else!  Chatted with Apple Support.  They had me back up IPhone to computer via ITunes and then Restore IPhone.  After Complete Restore, I reinstalled backup from computer.  Same issue.  Still no Calendar.  Any Help would be appreciated.  It is an iPhone 5C.
    Thanks,
    Rick

    I must have filled 20 bug reports at least is teh last 3-4 days (since I upgraded).
    In my early time with Apple products, I used to find one bug per month.
    Came Apple maps and that became once a day (including with wrong locations)
    Now comes iOS 7 and it is ... once every hour or more.
    I just can't believe it !!

  • IPhone Calendar app shows no calendars after iOS4 upgrade on 3GS

    I upgraded my iPhone 3GS to iOS 4.0 and now I cannot see any calendars in the built-in calendar app. My calendar is synchronized with my company Exchange server over the air and in the past I always had a button "Calendars" in the top-left corner of the calendar app on the phone, which I could use to show the calendar from the exchange server or my local calendar on the phone. That button is now gone and the entire calendar is empty.
    Also, when I try to create an event, it fails with the error "Unable to Save Event - The event has no calendar set.". But again there is no more control on the screen to create an event that would let me specify which calendar it should go on.
    The rest of the synchronization with the Exchange server works fine, i.e. all my contacts and email sync nicely.
    I've also tried to sync with my MobileMe calendar instead, and it has the same problem - I cannot see any calendars on the phone.
    I've tried to reset things by turning calendar sync off for the Exchange account, waiting a while, even rebooting the phone, and turning it back on - but to no avail.
    Is there any way to reset just the calendar app? It almost looks like its internal table that lists all available calendars is bugged...

    I upgraded my iPod Touch 8GB to iOS 4.0 and I was getting the identical problem to afalk42. I was trying to sync using the Microsoft Exchange option to my Google Apps personal domain account. This was flawless under OS version 3.
    I tried to restore from a previous backup via iTunes but the problem was still evident.
    I performed a factory restore via iTunes and then before restoring from my backup, checked that the unit was still iOS 4.0 (it was), and configured again for Exchange sync.
    This worked perfectly- the 4 calendars from my Google apps account were all visible and sync'd.
    I then initiated a restore from my last backup, leaving the Exchange configuration I just tested that worked configured. The unit restored, then auto-restarted as it was supposed to. When it came back it re-installed all my apps and music from iTunes as part of the post restore sync (took a fair while), but I stopped it syncing the movies I had, for the moment.
    When it all came back, the Exchange settings I had set after the factory restore but before the restore from backup remained intact and still functioned.
    So I am now happy it is all working, but what a pain!
    Hope this helps,
    Daz.

  • Calendar App showing a new blank calendar that I can't delete or rename.

    So suddenly my iPod has two separate calendars in the Calendar app, one identified with a red dot, the other with an orange dot, and I can neither delete nor rename this new second calendar. Both are named 'Calendar,' and I have the option to view either one or 'All.' The new one is blank; there are no events. I can see where having multiple calendars would be useful - for example, family stuff and work stuff could be on separate calendars - but not as much if I can't add, delete or rename these separate calendars.
    I think this second blank calendar appeared today, after I added the Google App to my iPod, and also after I tried syncing my iPod calendar to Outlook (with no success, it seems - Outlook's calendar is blank).
    Sorry if this is a stupid question - I've been looking online, and gone through the manual and all the settings - I can't find the solution.
    Thanks!
    Candace

    Wayne,
    Quit iCal, open Address Book, and click on your card. Then select Address Book>Card>Make this My Card.
    If that does not fix the problem, then delete and recreate your card, and once again make sure to designate it with "Make this My Card.

  • Is there a way to change the color of your calendars in the calendar app when it has been synced with multiple calendars?

    I have just purchased an iPad 2 and I have gotten it setup to sync with my multiple calendars on Google Calendar.  But the colors I have chosen for displaying my calendars in Google Calendar are not being used when the info comes over to the iPad.  The iPad is choosing it's own colors for each calendar.   Is there a way to customize this so I know who's calendar I am looking at by color shown?  Thanks!

    Size is never included in a style for a shape.
    If you want to apply the resizing to all shapes, you can use the small flyout menu after applying the resizing to one shape, and choose Apply to all items of this type.

  • Why does my calendar app show me Adelaide time?

    When you look at an appointment you have entered on you Calendar, whether on desktop or iPad,there are 3 views: 1) what you see when you open the app which might just be one word 2) a slightly more extended  view when you touch or mouse click on it or 3) a detailed view if you click/touch again.
    I have no problems with views (1) or (3), but (2) puzzles me and occasionally has me quite worried: it tells me Adelaide time. For example, for today the square reads "Practice" - that's fine. I know what that means. If I tap/click twice it will tell me correctly Practice, Perth Morris Men, 7:00-9:00pm, Nedlands Girl Guide Hall. Wonderful. However, if I only go the intermediate step and only tap/click once, I get "Practice, Wednesday 5 Mar, 9:30-11:30" plus some letters that I interpret as Australian Central daylight saving time when I stop to think, but that is after my initial panic. NOTE: today's example is not a panic job because it's a regular thing so I know the details anyway, but with other dates I can't be sure - who reads ACDT or whatever? Not only that, but the reminders come at the wrong time.
    Now, my computer & iPad clocks are correctly set for West Australia and the location is set correctly too as far as I can see. Anyway, my iMac has never left my study, so why do both machines think they're somewhere else? And why only with the calendar app?

    I'm not sure what Time Zone Support is. Time Zone is set automatically from the Time Zone page of Date&Time. There is no option for turning it off. It searches out the nearest city - it correctly guessed Perth, seeing I live less than a kilometre from the centre of the city - I don't know what to correct.

  • How can I share multiple calendars in iCal with several different people?

    I need to share multiple calendars created in iCal with all our staff. Do I enter their individual email addresses separated by a semi-colon or a "plus" sign or how. I tried entering all the email addresses with the semi-colon and when I go back to look at sharing, it just shows one email address.

    I am assuming that you are referring to a responsive layout that has divisions that reposition themselves according to the width of the client browser window.
    Rather than go into a teaching mode on this forum, let me point you to a nifty free Dreamweaver extension that will help you to achieve this. Have a look here http://www.dmxzone.com/go/21759/dmxzone-bootstrap?utm_source=Blog&utm_medium=link&utm_cont ent=DMXzone+Bootstrap+Released…
