Times of events not shown in month view

I'm thinking about using iCal instead of the calendar i've been using, but I find that it has what seems to be a serious drawback: In the month view, the times of the events are not listed. How do you deal with this? Does it present a problem?

Hi John,
You should be able to set iCal so you can see the start times in month view. I can't remember exactly what it says in 10.3, but go to the iCal menu then Preferences and it should be in there.
Best wishes

  • All day event not appearing in month view

    If I know there is an all day event on a day and I click into it from month view it is there. But for some reason I cannot see any of them from moth view. There is no colored or gray bar indicating an event. 
    There is one in week view. And if there is a timed event it appears in month view.
    In a separate, and puzzling, event I lost all my events. Putting them back in, but not sure if this happened with 1.4 or new Facebook update. 

    There is an old thread on this issue. Its by design that all day events do not show up in month view and not a bug. Many users (myself included) would like this to change. I suggest using the feedback and feature request page to let them know.

  • ICal events not showing on month view

    Hi everyone,
    I have been facing a strange problem with iCal: some events (random), despite they sync fine with my gcal, will appear only in day or week view, never in month view. This is extremely annoyning as one can miss an appointment or book two meetings at the same time. Anybody got this problem and found/know a solution to this? Thanks a lot
    macbook pro, lion 10.7.2 iCal 5.0.1

    Hi again:
    I just found out a simple solution for this issue. The problem is certainly an iCal bug and hopefully this will be fixed soon.
    So, I just clicked on iCal preferences, set up monday as the starting day of the week and voila! The events are just there!
    However, if you set it back for Sunday, events will be hidden again. Let's wait for this fix.
    Cheers.

  • Do not show dots for 'free' events in the calendar month view

    I wish I could.... not show dots for 'free' events in the calendar month view. For an overview of when I have hard-scheduled events in the calendar it's pretty tedious and slow to go day -by day, and other views... Instead the dot  in the month view... - why does it show even "free" events? Any ideas, tips?
    Thanks!

    Unfortunately there is no option to disable the dots.

  • Current date not highlighted in month view

    I currently am using iCal 3.0.8 on OSX 10.5.8 on Intel. The current date is not highlighted in month view. It was highlighted on 10.4 on my G4.
    Is this a new feature - or, am I missing a setting?

    It's definitely highlighted, but it's just a much paler shade of blue than earlier versions of the operating system, so if you're looking at your screen from the wrong angle, it looks like nothing is highlighted at all. The only solution to this is to do what I did, which is switch to the OUTSTANDING calendar program BusyCal from busymac.com, which is like "iCal Pro". They got everything right about BusyCal that Apple should have gotten right themselves in iCal. The date highlighting is extremely visible. BusyCal syncs with iCal, so your data will instantly appear in BusyCal as soon as you open it for the first time. I've been using BusyCal for about 3 months now, and it is absolutely awesome. I will NEVER go back to iCal ever again. I can't say NEVER loud enough. Apple completely screwed up iCal, whereas the BusyMac guys got everything right about BusyCal.

  • "Search for" results not shown in list view

    Hello,
    I just installed Leopard a few days ago, and so far I'm very happy.
    The ony oddity I noticed today was that "Search for" results (the default searches in the pane on the left side) are not shown in list view.
    What happens is this:
    - I open a finder window in list view.
    - I click e.g. on "Search for" - "All documents".
    - The status bar on the bottom of the finder window says e.g. "1789 objects", but the actual window is empty (although it has a very long scrollbar). If I click somewhere in the empty space, info for an actual file is shown - as if the files were there, just shown in white letters on white background. I can also type in the search field, and the status bar updates accordingly, but again, no files show up.
    Icon and Coverflow views, however, do work.
    - If I switch from Icon to List view, a file list is shown for the fraction of a second, then disappears.
    This is not an end-of-the-world-bug for me, but still pretty annoying.
    Any idea what might be the problem here? I have no exotic software installed that could cause trouble; just QuickSilver and the usual productivity apps.
    Thanks!

    The problem disappeared a few launches later . ..

  • Outlook 2010 appointments made on iPhone 4s not showing on monthly view

    Hello,
    When I sync Outlook 2010 64-bit with the iPhone 4s, I am having a strange issue.  Appointments made on the iPhone show up in Outlook's calender on the daily and weekly view, but not on the monthly view.  Also, the little calender in Outlook usually show Bold dates on days that I have an appointment however with this little quirk, appointments made on the iphone and synced with Outlook do not cause the dates to be bold.  Somehow, appointments created on the iPhone and synced with Outlook 2010 show up on the daily and weekly view and are missing on the monthly view....HELP!! 
    Thanks,
    BurningErn

    I believe there are other issues going on as well. My music on my iphone 4s is still on the iphone and we are talking 20-30 gb's of music.  Itunes however does not recognize that it is on the phone. Other programs are having the same issue so i'm guessing something is up with 6.1
    You may also try transferring purchases from your phone by clicking  on File Menu    Devices   Transfer Purchases.

  • Help: event times not printing in month view

    ... and yes, I have checked "show time in month view" in preferences, and the event times display on the screen. But on the monthly printout, the times do not appear, only ellipses where the time should be. There should be plenty of space for the information to print, there is white space both at the end of the event line and in the day box. But no times show up at all.
    System data: Mac Mini, OS X 10.4.2, iCal 2.0.3 (1055), Brother MFC 7820N printer.
    This is really awful... I just switched my wife over to the Mac Mini, and calendaring is a big part of what she needs. And she uses month views a lot. If I can't fix this, she'll probably throw the Mac Mini back in my face and I'll be sleeping on the couch. Yes, she cares that much about times printing in month views.
    Mac Mini   Mac OS X (10.4.3)  

    I don't know whether this a "solution" or a work-around, but I did find a way to resolve this problem. I recently started using iCal by transferring appointments from a BlackBerry using the BlackBerry PocketMac software. Although all of the appointment times appeared on the monthly calendar, most of the appointment times were replaced by ellipses when the monthly calendar was printed. It turns out that the times would print only after re-entering the appointment manually. This had to be done completely from scratch, i.e., not by editing the original appointment, or by cutting and pasting the appointment back into the calendar. This is a complete pain, but seems to work. I'd love to hear a better solution...

  • Times not shown in weekly view

    My iCal always used to show the times within the weekly blue "event" rectangles, but these seem to have disappeared recently. The events are still in the right place and given in the extended panel.
    How do I get these times back in the main display, please?
    The preferences allow for showing times in monthly view but not in weekly.
    MacOSX 10.4.9, iCal 2.0.5

    Hi John,
    You should be able to set iCal so you can see the start times in month view. I can't remember exactly what it says in 10.3, but go to the iCal menu then Preferences and it should be in there.

  • Repeating long all-day events not shown in second portion of week view

    When I create a long all-day event spanning from a Wednesday to the following Tuesday, I can see it in both the first and second week views that it spans. For example, I created an event spanning from Jan 9, 2008 (Wed) to Jan 16, 2008 (Tue). It is visible in both week views, i.e. from Jan 6-12, and Jan 13-19.
    However, when the event is set to be a repeating one, it disappears from the second week view, Jan 13-19. The event is still visible on the Jan 6-12 week view. When the event has its repetition removed, it is immediately visible in the second Jan 13-19 week. There is some bug in the week view that apparently screws up repeating all-day events that do not begin on the week being viewed.
    A fix on this would be greatly appreciated. Anyone else notice this?
    Everything is normal on the month view.

    I have exactly the same problem. I work a 21 week pattern of days off and on over a 17 day period, ending with a random 28 day block. So every 147 days I repeat that 28 day block named "random".
    However, when the random block spans to the following month the entry is viewable up to the last day displayed in the month view but step forward to the next month and the entry cannot be seen.
    Example: All day event starting on 16th Apr 2008 until 13 May 2008, custom repeat every 147 days (never end), appears in April month view up to May 4th. Step forward to May, which includes from April 28th and nothing is displayed.
    Yet if it is not a repeat event it spans correctly!
    I'm relatively new to OS X and can't remember for sure but I thought Tiger handled it correctly?
    Can anybody confirm this?

  • Why are times not displayed in Monthly view of iCalendar?

    After the last update, the times for events in the monthly view in Calendar are no longer displayed? I have checked preferences and cannot find how to get this back. It did before and I used it for my office for appointments and I need the times displayed. Does anyone have a suggestion?

    Try making the window a little bigger.  I think it truncates time for space.  I see time on mine.

  • Why are my iCal events not the same across views?

    Help!  I've been editing my iCal in Month view and everything looks great... but then I look at the day view (or week, whatever) and it's not the same.  For example, in Month view for July 2 - I have one event scheduled from 8:30-noon.  Then I look at the day view... and there are 8 different events!  Most of them duplicates of different things that I had at one time or another deleted or changed.  Why didn't the "clean up" work that I did in the month view carry over to day or week view?  In fact the opposite, there are more things in day or week views than I ever created.
    Recently upgraded to Lion from Snow Leopard.  Recently changed from mobileme to iCloud.  I only have iCal set to my iCloud account (no "on my mac" iCal calendar data). So the problem I see when editing on my MacBookPro is also seen when logged into iCloud directly via Safari and on my iPhone, iPad, etc.  At first I thought this was an iCloud syncing error because I only noticed the difference on my phone (list view)... but when I went back to my MacBookPro I realized the problem exists there too... so doesn't seem to be a syncing error, but rather a "view" error... then the "problem" is mirrored everywhere.
    I've tried "refresh" and "refresh all" from the Calendar drop down menu.  This does nothing to help the problem... not that I really expected it would.
    Thanks for any help you can provide.  I'm going crazy!
    Mac OS X 10.7.4; iCal 5.0.3

    Fixed my own problem.  Ultamately a user error but tied to the many threads about the month view defaulting events to "all day" vs. hourly increment.  I knew that was the case, so when editing events from month view I made sure to add/change the time, but negected to look at "To" date.  If my event was for an hour, simply adding the hour pushed the day to span across dates so the event was really 25 hours.  Looked OK in the month view (just showed as a dot) but the day and week were all filled and casued the event to appear twice on the second day in list view (iPhone).  In the case of repeat events, sometimes "To" date ended up as the end date for the repeat cycle... which really messed every thing up... I believe causing what looked like duplicates, etc.

  • Can't event to iCal in Month view

    When in month view I can't add a new event.   I can do so in week view.

    Rocky,
    Try the "Find and resolve duplicate fonts" link in Mac 101: Font Book.  Also try changing the "Refresh Calendars:" interval in iCal>Preferences...>Accounts.
    If that is not helping, download and install OS X Lion Update 10.7.3 (Client Combo).
    USN...that was the best graphic I could find.

  • Why events look foggy in monthly view ?

    I'm new to iCal. Like it very much, excellent piece of software.
    I'm using it in Monthly view only.
    On thing bothers me, it's the foggy look of the events. Clicking on event makes the background color bright. Otherwise it's foggy. All my events are 'all day' events highlighted in different colors(diff. calendars)
    Is there a way to keep it clear ? or that's how it is ?
    Thanks!

    Thanks,
    System Pref. will change the look of the fonts for the whole system.
    It's only in the iCal. It's not the font, but the look.
    It's like a translucent filter on top of the calendar. So when I single click the event, then the 'filter" turns off over this event and the background color turns real and bright.
    The other events on that day remain foggy.
    For example, if the color supposed to be Red, then in normal view it looks light red. Clicking on it, then it turns the real red.
    Maybe this is supposed to be like that ?
    I don't know, because for me it's first time
