Stuck in add event

Can't get out of add event in calender

Try a hard reset. To do this, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.

Calendar stuck on add event screen.

I was trying to add an event in my calendar and now the calendar is stuck on the add event screen. Went to I-Tunes and restored my phone, but calendar still remains on the add event screen. How do I fix this?

Thank you for your response. No, that is not the same screen. I know which screen you are talking about. The screen I am having trouble with does not respond to anything I do. It is just a calendar showing me two or three dates with blank event squares. I try to tap the dates, but nothing happens. I have tapped on the few squares to no avail. When I go back to my home screen and select Calendar again I continue to get the same screen. I was very frustrated and waited for my grandson to check it out and of course it went right to the screen to add events. Since then, I have had it happen again many times, but if I just give up for 30 minutes or so, it seems to reset itself. I do not like this 7.0.4 format! This has not been my only problem. I would welcome any other suggestions.

How do I add events to my calendar on iPad mini

The + sign on my calendar is greyed out so I can't add an event. I've tried asking Siri to add an event but when I get to the end and press confirm he says he can't do this but can't tell me why. Has anyone else had this problem and how did you resolve it? I have the iPad mini

Hi TinyTemper,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If you're not able to add events to Calendar, try these troubleshooting steps first:
If you're using iOS 7, quit and restart the Calendar app:
Press the Home button twice to see preview screens of the apps you have open.
Find the Calendar preview screen and swipe it up and out of preview to quit the application.
Tap the Home button to return to your Home screen.
Wait a minute before reopening the Calendar app.
Restart your iOS device: Hold down the Sleep/Wake button until the red slider appears, then drag the slider. After the device turns off, turn it back on by pressing the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.

Can't double click and add event in month view. HELP!

For some strange reason, I can't double click to addevent on Ical Monthly view all of a sudden. Whenever I double click, nothing happens. Same thing happens on the year view.
I can only add event now using the stupid + signs, or go into daily or weekly view. HELP!

I have this problem too. Just started today all of a sudden. When I am in iCal on my Macbook, I double click - like I have been doing since ical was invented - and nothing happens, other than a quick "updating" message. I tried clicking the "+" button but all it gives me is "quick event" to add but nothing ever shows up in my iCal calendar on my mac. When I log into to iCal in the Cloud - lo and behold! - I see dozens and dozens of "new event" entries all over my calendar! What is going on and how can this be corrected? At this point my computer's ICal program is basically now useless since I am prevented from adding anything to it.

My ical will not let me add events it saying my calender was created by mail. How can I change this. We use mobile me and synch

Does anyone know how I can add events to my desktop ical when the message I receive says that the calender was created by Mail
I do not know how this happened. I managed to synch and change this some months ago but I do not know how!

Hi Cara,
Welcome to Discussions.
With iCal closed, try deleting it's preference file (User/Library/Preferences/com.apple.iCal.plist).
If this does not work try repairing permissions. Open Disk Utility (Applications/Utilities/Disk Utility) and select your boot volume on the left and click Repair Permissions.
If neither of these work post back.

I updated my iphone to OS 5.0.1 and i can not add events to my iphone calendar- does anyone know how to fix this issue?

I updated today to the 5.0.1 and now when I try to sync to ITunes, it doesn't recognize my phone and an error message comes up saying that "This iPhone cannot be used because the Apple Mobile Device service is not started.' What does this mean? Never mind - I found an article in the Support about this very thing! Thanks!

Reset your phone, hold the home and off button down until the apple symbol comes up. If that doesnt fix it then you need to restore your phone in itunes, Connect to itunes, right click on your phones name to the left, then click restore from backup. That providing you have backed up your phone recently.

After syncing and updating my iphone my iCalendar on my computer lost most of my information. Including wiping out an entire calendar group. When trying to readd the calendar group it won't let me add events to my calendar under that category.

After syncing and updating my iphone my iCalendar on my computer lost most of my information. Including wiping out an entire calendar group. When trying to readd the calendar group it won't let me add events to my calendar under that category. A message pops up that says: "You can't add events or to do items to a calendar group. Select an individual calendar in the calendar list, then create your events or to do items." Any help here would be greatly appreciated! I would like to either retrieve the old information or find a way to add the category back in to start over. Thanks in advance!

hi i had the same problem today when i updated my itunes to latest version. however, i have just found my songs in the 'itunes media' folder. this was accessed through 'my music' then keep clicking through until you find itunes media and all my library songs were in there and i then just added these files to my library and all were restored however, i have lost all my playlists but at least my 700 songs are back. very dissapointed with apple that they have let this happen with their latest update, the previous version was miles better than this one . hope you find them. stevo

How to use the calendar to add events and reminders?

Since updating to the most current software, I am unable to add events or reminders to my iphone calendar. Does anyone know how to use it now? I really miss my calendar!
Thanks in advance

randers4, you saved my life!! At least my social calendar life, including all my appointments and important dates. After the last update, my + sign went away, but turning it on in the iCloud settings did the trick. Thanks for your help!!

Why does Calendar take up so much space and why can't I add events or sync?

Since I updated to ios7, my calendar hasn't worked at all. It used to sync with my Google calendar. Now I can't see any events in my calendar. The + sign to add an event is always greyed out so I can't add events. And something I've just noticed is that Calendar takes up 473 MB of space on my phone, making it one of the biggest users of space. (This might be related. If I search for an event in my calendar, it shows a long long long list of events that all say "New Event" that are scheduled to last all day. I can't delete these. It says they are assigned to "Untitled Calendar."
I've tried all sorts of combinations of turning on and off syncing calendars with Google and with iCloud. I can't detect any change. (My Mavericks calendar works just fine and syncs with Google.)

Hello chinchillababiz,
After reviewing your post, I have located an article that can help with iOS storage. It contains helpful advice and information that may assist you in managing your data:
See how much storage you've used on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch
If your device is near its capacity or you get an alert that your storage is full, you can remove some of your less used content to make room for more.
View storage usage on your iOS device
Tap Settings > General > Usage > Manage Storage to see the amount of space each app and its content takes on your device.
Tap an app for more detailed information about its usage.
Depending on the app, you might be able to delete some of the app's content, or delete the app and all of its content.
View storage usage for your iOS device in iTunes
When you connect your device and select it in iTunes, you'll see your usage by content type:
Audio: Songs, audio podcasts, audiobooks, voice memos, and ringtones
Video: Movies, music videos, and TV shows
Photos: Camera Roll contents, Photo Stream, and Photo Library
Apps: Installed apps
Books: iBooks books and PDF files
Documents & Data: App content such as contacts, calendars, messages, emails, and their attachments, Safari Offline Reading List, and files that you've created in your apps
Other: Settings, Siri voices, and other system data
Hover your mouse over the content type for more information about usage.
iTunes displays how much space the selected songs, videos, audiobooks, and apps use in the status bar on the bottom of the screen. You can also see this information by selecting an item and then choosing File > Get Info. The size is available in the Summary tab.
You can transfer or sync content to your computer from your device. If you want to remove certain types of content from your device, learn how to manually manage content using iTunes.

TS1702 My calendar app (Tuesday 1 Calendar) does not allow me to add events. There is no Calendars or + at the top of the app.

My calendar app (Tuesday 1 Calendar) does not allow me to add events. There is not a (Calendars or +) at the top of the application. Previous iPhones I have had had this feature. Please advise

Go to Settings>iCloud, turn Calendars to On.

How can I make the "add event" dialog in Lightning use 12-hour times?

The Add Event dialog in Lightning (on an iMac running OS 10.10.2 Yosemite) is displaying 24-hour times in the dropdown boxes. I need these to be in 12-hour format.
Also, the default calendar needs to be changed. Where are these preferences located?

I don't know what the acceptable setting values are, but you could experiment with
''calendar.date.format''
in the config editor. '''[http://kb.mozillazine.org/Menu_differences_in_Windows,_Linux,_and_Mac Tools|Options]'''|Advanced|General→Config editor
Mine is set to 1 and it's faithfully copying the date/time format I use elsewhere, but that may just be coincidence. But I suspect it is simply the toggle between long and short date formats as offered in the Options GUI for the calendar.
Bear in mind that all those AM/PM indicators will eat up precious screen real estate.
Settings for the Calendar are under Tools|Options (on Windows); that'll be Edit|Preferences or Thunderbird |Preferences.
