Toggle all-day & timed events

i must be missing something really simple; once an event is created as either all-day or timed, i can't change it again. i know it didn't used to be like that.
my workaround now is to do it on my iphone, where it can still be changed. then it'll synch back to the desktop ical.
any thoughts?

I just had the same problem & used the same workaround that you did. Then I realized that the recurring event had been created on my iPhone. I tried toggling an event that had been created on my Mac, & that worked just fine.
The iPhone doesn't see to care where an event was created, so I'm guessing it's a bug in the Mac iCal software.

  • Calendar Question: Why do all day untimed events switch to all day timed events???

    I've complained about this on other threads, but so far nobody has answer.  Can somebody please tell me why all day untimed events on the Pre sometimes switch to all day TIMED events (i.e., an event that starts at 12am and ends at 11:59pm)??  My guess is that this is yet another glitch with Google calendar sync, but I would like somebody to weigh in if they know how to fix it.  Thanks. 
    PS--I'm also still waiting for someone from Palm to address the daylight saving time glitch too, if anybody is out there.  Thx.
    Post relates to: Pre p100eww (Sprint)

    This is happening to me as well.  So far, I've noticed it only with repeating events, and not with all of them.  I started noticing the problem in late October, at the same time that I noticed some all-day repeating events being moved forward a day (see separate thread).  As of today (the 12th), I see a repeating yearly all-day event on the 14th that is changed to a 12:00-11:59 event; and a similar problem with an all-day event on the 20th that is supposed to repeat until the 22nd.  In that case, the event is showing only on the 20th and 21st, with the 22nd not showing the event.  In this same time period, there are many all-day events repeating yearly that are NOT showing any problems.
    At the moment all events seem to be showing up correctly in Google Calendar, which my Pre is syncing to. - Dan

  • All day calendar events not being displayed in the notification centre for iphone 5 post ios 7 upgrade. Please help. Is it a bug?

    All day calendar events not being displayed in the notification centre for iphone 5 post ios 7 upgrade. Please help. Is it a bug?
    With iOS 6, the all day events showed up in the notification centre but it lacks in the upgrade iOS 7.

    Same problem here. Some people pointed out that all-day events do show up in their notification center, but that seems only to be the case for birthdays (and only as text like the weather). I've tried it myself on my iPhone and iPad and it did work for birthdays but not for any other all-day events. I already sent this to Apple as a product feedback as well, as should everyone of you. The more people mention it, the faster Apple's going to fix this issue. In its current state, notification center is not a very helpful feature in my opinion. There's absolutely no point in not showing all-day events in the 'today' calendar overview.
    Here's a link to the product feedback page: http://www.apple.com/feedback/
    I posted my message in the iPhone section since I couldn't find a page specifically dedicated to iOS 7.
    I really love the look & feel of iOS 7 but it's kinda sad to see notification center not tapping its full potential.
    Cheers!

  • ICal does not search all-day "detached events"

    I've encountered a very specific, repeatable search problem:
    (1) create an all-day repeating event (e.g., repeat daily for five days);
    (2) add some text to the Notes field, and apply to All occurrences;
    (3) search Event and To-do Items for some text in that Note, and all 5 instances of the all-day event are properly found;
    (4) open a single instance of the all-day event, and replace the Note with different text;
    (5) save the change for "Only this event" (this creates what used to be called a "detached event" in iCal 2.0);
    (6) search for the new note text -- iCal doesn't find it.
    This is NOT a Spotlight problem. I can search for the same text in Spotlight, and it returns the correct iCal events. Bento also has no trouble finding those events with the note text.
    This problem is a real nuisance for me, because one of the ways I use iCal is to have a Calendar called "Notes" with a repeating all-day event called "Daily Notes", which I use as a poor-man's journal. Unfortunately, those notes cannot be searched within iCal.
    Can anyone else confirm this behavior?

    Jamaicangal,
    Do you have any duplicate fonts? If so, try resolving duplicates.

  • Why are all-day calendar events not appearing in the Notification Center?

    I've noticed that all-day Calendar events do not appear in the Notfication Center in iOS. This is a glaring omission and I'm not sure if it's related to a bug or is intentional but it should be fixed right away. Why in the world would you leave out an all-day event from the Notification Center? What if I had a wedding anniversary or some other important event to remember?

    IOS / is no out for a couple of weeks and Apple seems to be reluctant to fix this problem. As a business device it becomes rediculous to be not able to see my calender entries anymore in the notification center. Is Apple now leaving the business arena and focusing on toys ?

  • All Day Recurring Events 1 Day early

    Hi. Need some help here.
    All my All Day & Recurring Events are one day early when I do sync.
    Any one has any solution to it?

    jumping in to say i'm having the same problem on my ipad after updating to ios 5, and not only in list view. all recurring all-day events show up as one day early. it's correct on my computer, on my iphone and on mobileme, but wrong on the ipad.

  • All Day/Recurring Events showing a day early

    Hello,
    We recently deployed about 200 iphones and have been noticing that some people are experiencing an issue where only their all day or recurring all day events are showing on day early on their phone, while showing correctly in outlook.
    I've done searches on the forums, but have not seen anything that was recent or applied to our situation. We do not allow users to sync to iTunes, and we have checked that time zones are matching.
    If anyone has experienced and resolved this, it would be appreciated

  • All-day iCal events made on iPhone sync to Mac as one day late.

    Had this problem a little while now, can't remember what started it, but it hasn't always been like this. I remember first being aware of it near the end of last year because I wondered if the problem might correct itself once 2011 began.
    If I create an all-day event on the iPhone calendar, it will sync to the mac's iCal as being one day later. If I enter an event on my phone that's all day, Saturday the 5th of March, it will show up on my computer as Sunday the 6th.
    Events which are not "all-day" are completely unaffected.
    Both devices are set to the same time zone, with the iPhone having timezone support on and the mac having timezone support off. I've toyed with trying different combinations of these settings but nothing changes. I have to manually drag the mac iCal events one day earlier once they're synced. This fixes it, because it doesn't appear to then bump the iPhone copy of the event any earlier.
    But that's a massive pain and I've lost faith in iCal as a timekeeping device. Anything glaringly obvious that I've missed?

    I have this problem too. I have an iPhone 4, and this wasn't a problem when I bought the phone back in December. I think it came a month or so later and I suspect with a standard upgrade of something like itunes, or iphone software... but I can't pinpoint it to any specific update as it took me a while to notice it. For me, it does this with my work calendar which is run through Microsoft Outlook. But it's the exact same thing - and it means my calendar isn't reliable anymore.
    I've made sure the time-zone settings are correct, I've updated all software, and gone through all possible settings for both my i-phone and Outlook. Nothing fixes the problem, even our tech guy at work didn't know what to do. I know it's not just my phone as the exact same thing has happened with my boss's iPhone which is an iPhone 3G, and it frustrates him to no end.
    I'm really hoping someone at apple can tell us what's going on, especially since it never used to do this and there doesn't seem to be any way to fix it. If someone thinks they know what itunes update this was due to, let me know - I'll see if I can go back to that older version.

  • Outdated all-day calendar event notifications coming up daily on my new Z10 -how can I stop them? HELP!

    When I got my new z10, I used the Blackberry Desktop to transfer things like calendar entries, tasks, and memos from my old BB Bold to the new phone.  The memos transferred fine, although it took me awhile to locate them in the "remember" folder.  Many of the calendar entries transferred correctly I think, although I also use Outlook and have that sync with the Z10 calender so it's hard to tell.  But I have numerous calendar entries from 2010, 2011, 2012 that repeatedly show up as notifications every day, and when I click to edit them, the screen just flashes and goes to the next old entry -I have to go through about 30 of them every day.  At the end, I've had a few that will let me edit them -they seem to be old entries that had recurrences.  The ones that won't go away are "all day" single entries.  The calendar only shows the last 90 days and the future 90 days (which I hate -I'd love to be able to see the last two years like I used to), so I can't edit calendar entries from two years ago directly on the phone.  Any help would be appreciated!!

  • ICal all-day event problem

    iCal on my iPad worked fine for a while. Now, many of my all day events (but not all of them) are showing up a day early on my iPad on week view. Everything is fine on all other devices (iPhone, MacBook) and all is fine on iPad on day, month and list view. All timed events are in the right place. But all day events in week view are a disaster and turning off the iPad isn't helping. Any advice?

    Did you travel out of your home time zone and first notice the problem then? I spent an hour and a half on the phone with Apple Care while I was in the Central zone (I live in Eastern) and nothing the supervisor suggested worked (deleting the account, resetting, turning ipad off, etc). They'd bumped me up to a supervisor because the regular guy had no idea. Supervisor said no one on the internal tech board had seen that particular problem. The final assumption was it was a software glitch on my ipad--the advice was a complete restore which was going to have to wait until I returned home because he said it would take too long over the Verizon mi-fi I was using while traveling. Anyway--I got home to Eastern time, immediately pulled out the ipad to do the restore and all the all-day events were in the right place and have remained in the right place since then. My best guess is that it's a time zone issue but it doesn't make much sense. All my timed events stayed right where they were supposed to be the whole time (time zone support turned off).

  • All-Day-Events Not affecting Availability

    Hi All,
    We have iCal server setup on 10.5.4 and I've come across a bug in the iCal client (3.05).
    If someone has created an event and checked it as All-Day, that event will not affect that users availability if someone else tries to add them as an attendee.
    I have checked the option on for each calendar (Get Info) that "Events Affect Availability". Other events do affect availability, just not events flagged as "All Day".
    Any ideas? Or is it still a bug in 10.5.5 (also happened in 10.5.4)?
    Thanks in advance!

    In the iCalendar data format used to represent the event information, there is a TRANSP property that can indicate whether a specific event contributes to freebusy or not. By default iCal makes timed events appear as busy, and all-day events appear as free (transparent). There is no way in iCal itself to change that. The only workaround when using iCal is to create a timed event that blocks out 24 hours.

  • How do I get all day events to show back up in my notification center after iOS8 update?

    I have a iPhone 5, with iOS 8, 16GB
    OK, none of my calender events are showing up in my notification center, and I have all type's of events on my calender, I have tried going in to my settings < then notifications < then calender < now, on this screen it shows that I am allowing notifications, so I went to upcoming events < and everything on this screen is on, I don't know what to do. How do I fix this? Can someone please help me?

    Unfortunately, iOS 7 and iOS 8 do not show All-day-events in the Notification Centre.
    Try to do a search within the forums or just google it and you will see that this is how ios7 and 8 have been designed from the start, and a major issue in my opinion.

  • ICal repeating old all day events...?

    Hi, thanx for reading...
    I had seen duplicate events, but this is so weird!
    Some all day events such as birthdays are shown like 10 times the same day at the same hour, just like that...
    When trying to delete copies to see if keeping one copy the problem solves, there seems to be more duplicate than graphicaly shown... so i cant delete all the duplicates...
