TS1906 Help!  I am losing my Ical events

Can anyone tell me why I am repeatedly losing events I have entered on Ical?  Since I enter events both from my phone and Imac and I can't tell whihc events are getting lost.  I renetered events and backed them up.  However, when I restore the back-up calendar, it loses the event s again immediantly.  Someone please help me!  Emily

I just entered an appoint for this coming thursday at 8 AM on my Mac Mini with OS 10.7.5.  Within 5 minutes without closing iCal the appointment disappeared.  I have noticed this before.
Then I noticed that an appointment for Jan 9th had disappeared.  I opened my iPhone 4 with the most recent OS upgarade and as i watched Cal synch on the iphon the appointment disappeared right before my eyes!
Gonna try the icloud troubleshooting but this is not good!

  • Help....duplications of ical events on iPhone and only syncing from mac to iPhone?

    Hi,
    Has anyone got any suggestions for fixing this problem.....
    My iPhone syncs with my Mac perfectly via iTunes apart from iCal, which is giving me real grief! iCal on my mac is in perfect order and syncs events to my phone but my phone has duplicate and triplicate events and even events in different states of being edited. The iphone doesnt sync events made in it back to the mac either.
    It syncs contacts etc. fine, just not iCal events.
    Is there an easy way of fixing this or even totally reseting iCal on the Mac and iPhone so it clears this up? (obviously, I need to keep my calendar events though)
    I've tried replacing the info on the phone, reseting the phone, changing to iCloud syncing and back again and I even upgraded to the iPhone 5 (which I was going to do anyway )
    I'm using Mac OS X 10.6.8, iCal 4.0.4, iTunes 11.0.2 and I was on an iPhone 4 and now iPhone 5. It's been happening for two months now and it's getting really frustrating!
    Thanks for any help in advance

    This fixed my problem - finally!!

  • Help: I cannot see or edit events in iCal.  What to do?

    Please help. I cannot open the event editor to change or see contents of an event. I am using an Intel MacBook, iCal, and The Missing Sync for Palm with a Palm Centro. The events show fine on my Centro, but I cannot double-click the events on iCal on my MacBook in order to see or edit the attached notes. Maybe an unrelated problem is that times of events in iCal are not the same on my Centro (some are, some are not). I cannot seem to determine what happened to the events as shown on my MacBook. Any ideas?

    I talked to AppleCare support earlier today and they guided me to the solution. Seems like my iCal file had became corrupted for some reason (iCal or Palm Centro or Missing Sync to blame?--who knows). Anyway, the solution was to remove the file "com.apple.iCal.plist" Once that was done, iCal recreated the file after I reopened iCal and all was well. We'll see how long this fix lasts -- I hope forever.

  • Ical Help needed- can not delete a four year ical event

    I accidentally sent an ical event that lasts for four years and now I he cant delete it and it is taking up more and more memory on his phone as it is repeating infinitly every day?? Have tried restore but it still syncs with icloud. is there an easy solution?

    First you have to know which calendar your client saved the event to. Usually by default it saves to the native Calendar app. If that is the case, he should be able to log into iCloud and delete the event (decline the invitation) from there. If your client saved the event to an external calendar that he has synched to his iPhone (Yahoo, Google, etc.) he may be able to delete it or decline it from there, which should in turn remove it from the device.
    The logic here is that only the creator of the event invitation can edit the event details, so that if they do that, all of the recipients of the invitation will get the updated information automatically. I agree it leaves a lot to be desired to stick things on people's calendars that they can't at the very least just simply delete if not edit. I will no longer accept invitations directly on my device in order to avoid this. I will add the event to my calendar manually from now on.

  • Help creating an iCal event workflow

    I'm trying to create a workflow where I run & a window pops up so I can add the details & then it adds the details to iCal.
    I was trying to use the 'New iCal Events' action which when run display a window where you can enter the details, but it won't work properly for me. If I run it from Automator the details I enter are added correctly to iCal, but if I run it from the workflow I saved (as an app) the details I enter don't get transferred to iCal.
    Is this a bug, or am I doing something wrong?

    don't hope too much. automator bugs haven't received high priority in the past. you might want to look for a workaround using apple script.

  • Lion 10.7.2 On both mac book pro and iMac, both with Lion 10.7.2, obtain repeated iCal event notifications from calendar or address book.  Cannot turn these off.  They repeat several times per session and every time computer is used.  How to diagnose this

    Lion 10.7.2 On both mac book pro and iMac, both with Lion 10.7.2, obtain repeated iCal event notifications from calendar or address book.  Cannot turn these off.  They repeat several times per session and every time computer is used.  How to diagnose this?

    First, uninstall "SuperTV" (whatever that is) according to the developer's instructions. It isn't working and it's filling the log with noise.
    If you have more than one user account, these instructions must be carried out as an administrator.
    Launch the Console application.
    Step 1
    Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left.
    Enter "BOOT_TIME" (without the quotes) in the search box. Note the timestamps of those log messages, which refer to the times when the system was booted. Now clear the search box and scroll back in the log to the last boot time when you had the problem. Post the messages logged before the boot, while the system was unresponsive or was failing to shut down. Please include the BOOT_TIME message at the end of the log extract.
    Post the log text, please, not a screenshot. If there are runs of repeated messages, post only one example of each. Don’t post many repetitions of the same message. When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
    PLEASE DO NOT INDISCRIMINATELY DUMP THOUSANDS OF LINES FROM THE LOG INTO A MESSAGE. If you do that, I will not respond.
    Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Edit it out by search-and-replace in a text editor before posting.
    Step 2
    Still in Console, look under System Diagnostic Reports for crash or panic logs, and post the most recent one, if any. In the interest of privacy, I suggest you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if present (it may not be.) Please don’t post shutdownStall, spin, or hang logs — they're very long and not helpful.

  • ICal events duplicated, missing in iPhoto calendar

    It's that time of year again, when I make my annual calendar. Only this year it isn't going smoothly.
    When I go to the calendar settings and choose which iCal events I want, I'm getting all sorts of strange behavior.
    Items from two calendars for the same day won't both appear on the calendar. I want to add a July 4 birthday, but I can get either Independence Day or the birthday, not both.
    As I added calendars, sometimes events already listed became duplicated or triplicated (not with US Holidays, but other calendars).
    Is anyone else having this problem and more importantly, does any one have a solution.
    Calendar ordering time is fast upon us. One of the things that makes an iPhoto calendar worth the extra bucks is that it has all the dates I want on it. Help!

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Those are bugs that need to be reported to Apple via http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphoto.html.

  • Cannot add new iCal events on my iPhone 3G.

    My iPhone 3G has stopped saving new iCal events. I can still set up new events in iCal on my laptop, and they'll sync over to my iPhone, but new events won't save when entered into iCal on my iPhone. Any idea what's wrong and how to fix this?
    BTW, I just got rid of a MobileMe account. I never ended up using MobileMe, so it doesn't seem like that should be the issue here, but I noticed that some other folks have had iCal sync issues with MobileMe, so I thought I'd add that info.

    In other words, it's hacked.
    Sorry, you can't get help here.
    Say for an instance, that it wasn't hacked. Would you suggest to just wipe and restore it?

  • Some iCal events disappear when in week view

    Hello all,
    I recently had a double agenda booking. Today I found out why:
    In week view some iCal events disappear... When i switch to month view, they reappear.
    So, depending on the view i have open time slots. Not very reliable.
    Anyone know what i can do to return to solid bookings again?
    Best regards
    Fred

    Same problem here. I just imported everything from my old MacBook to my new one using Time Machine. My events appear in the Month view but not in the Week or Day views. So I went back to my old MacBook, created an iCal backup file, and emailed it to myself. Opened it on the new machine, restored from the backup file, and . . . same thing!
    Very strange!! I need my daily events to be visible. Any help out there?

  • How do you get a new line in a description of an iCal event?

    I need to be able to create multiple lines in a description of an iCal event.  In the past, I used control return to get a new line.  In Mountain Lion, this does not show up as a new line, once the event has been saved.  It merges all of the text onto one line and creates new lines as the space dictates.  How can I force new lines in the event description between the words that I have chosen?

    I'm interested too.
    Please help, I had own method to management  iCal's event – new line, of 10.7 worked great – now is a little terrible for me :/

  • In mail "create new ical event" has stopped appearing in ical

    Please help! I love clicking on data in email to bring up the "Create New iCal Event" box, and using it to put new events into my ical calendar. But recently when I "Create New iCal Event" from an email, and click "add to iCal" the window closes but the event doesn't show up in iCal. I can still add events by clicking on a calendar date in iCal and typing them in, but the link between Mail and iCal seems to be broken. How can I fix it?
    Could this be related to how Firefox recently broke? Foxfire will not save bookmarks any more, either, I click on "Bookmarks," then "Bookmark this page". The window closes but the bookmark does not save. Also, the forward/backward browser arrows no longer work on Foxfire.

    Could you be more specific? What happens (or fails to happen?)

  • Found iCal events in Time Machine.  Now Lion only allowing me to import one event at a time.

    Upgrade my macbook pro over the weekend to Snow Leopard and then Lion.   I lost all my the majority of my iCal events.   Went to Apple store and they said that was rare and not sure how to restore my last back up from Time Machine on an external drive.   I've been spending hours trying to go through a bunch of threads on different MAC formums.  
    So I finally found my iCal events in Time Machine.   When I try to import these events, I am only allowed to highlight/import one event at a time.   This will take me forever to import years of missing data.   I basically have been using my iCal to journal for my 3 small daughters - first tooth, hair cut, etc.   So I am desperate to get these events back so I can get them printed and SAFE.
    Does anyone have any suggestions on how to import my ics files?   The Apple Store Genius had me tryng to import the corestorage.ics files.   2 or 3 of those files showed they were trying to be imported for over 4 hours.   I finally Forced Quit iCal.   I've tried this several times and same result. 
    The corestorage files were under user/library/application support/ical/sources
    I now located the calendar events user/library/calendars/ then a bunch of coded files leading to the events.  These events appear to be the ones I am looking for as I can read some of the files.   I have several years I want to import back into my working iCal.  
    Please help if you know how!!!
    Thank you,
    Very Upset Mama of 3 little girls

    Thomas - You are awesome - THANK YOU!  
    I did exactly what you said (CAN"T believe an Apple Genius did not know this) and I think all of my events got restored.  
    However, it duplicated all of the calendars - I have 6 (one for each family member plus an extra called home that we all have to do).   Not sure if I did something wrong, but do you have any ideas?  
    Also, the time setting must be wrong b/c I have events from 2008 showing up in 2012 - same day and time as the old sessoin - just out dated.    Do I need to manually change all of this?   Should I delete the Calendars folder again and try again?  
    Also, I read some where about deleting a iCal cache file.   Do I need to do this?
    I TRULY appreciate you taking the time to help people in this forum.   I have spent hours the past two days trying to figure this out.   Plus, now I need to figure out about upgrading my Office for Mac b/c I didn't realize I lost Office 2004 when upgrading to Lion.   
    Thank you for your time and support!
