TS3999 Subscribed calendar shows events in French on my iPhone, but English on my mac. Why?

Hello,
I am using iCloud to sync my "Friends' Birthdays" calendar from Facebook between my mac and iPhone. On the mac with iCal, this works fine. Events show up in their own calendar exactly as they are supposed to. The calendar's location is set to iCloud under the info pane.
The problem occurs when the subscription is shared to my iPhone. The "Friends' Birthdays" calendar syncs in French! So instead of "Steve's Birthday", the event shows up as "Anniversaire de Steve". I tried subscribing to the calendar directly from my iPhone, but the same problem occurred. The iPhone defaults the name of the subscription to "Anniversaires d'amis", and the events are still in French.
This is not a problem with international settings that I am aware of. Here is a breakdown of my language preferences:
Facebook: US English
Mac: English
iPhone: Settings>General>International>Language>English
"">Voice Control>English
"">Region Format>Canada
"">Calendar>Gregorian
Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>Sync>Events 1 Month back
The only thing I can think of is that my wife uses her computer in French, and Facebook has associated our IP with her language preferences or something, but that should change the way iCal displays its events too, right?
Confused!

Your Google calendar is not stored locally on your devices (other than a temporary cached view for use while your device is offline); it's stored on Google's server (just as iCloud calendars are stored on iCloud's servers). Neither can sycn data from the other service's server. If you want to use iCloud to sync your calendars, you have to import it to iCloud's server as shown in the linked video. Or, just continue to use Google instead. (They are similar services.)

I wanted to know if others were having difficulties getting All Day Events appear in the Notification Center in iOS 7. Currently my Calendar in the notification center will show events that are at certain times, but they will not display All Day Events.

Why are my contacts and calendars showing up on my daughter's iphone after I updated? Help!

Why are my contacts and calendar showing up on my daughter's iphone after I updated? Is there anyway to remove them or stop
them from going directly to her phone? Help!!!! Thanks guys

So, am I to conclude from all this that the best thing for one iMac and multiple family devices (2 x iphones, 1 x itouch, 2 x ipods) is to set up itunes account for each family member. We don't use iCloud except for my (primary iphone)
We had similar problems to the above, and since the recent 6.0.1 update we've started getting each others texts, on top of my wife and I's contacts being replicated to our young son's itouch, and a seemingly random redistribution of apps.

My young kids have ipads and since I updated the software, but they have their own icloud account, predictive text within their messages shows all my contacts from my iphone but the contacts are not listed as their contacts, how do I stop this?

My young kids have ipads and since I updated the software, but they have their own icloud account, predictive text within their messages shows all my contacts from my iphone but the contacts are not listed as their contacts, how do I stop this?

I have deleted the iCloud account under my name on their iPads and replaced with their ones. Apple support said yesterday I needed to click the small 'I' by each name as it came up in the TO box and remove it. After doing rid for each contact under each letter of the alphabet it should remove them from latest contacts. Having done this, although I could not remove groups I had sent, I am not convinced they will not return once I have written a few texts, any ideas?

If the iPhone is locked to a US carrier, you cannot use the SIM card of another carrier on it to either activate it or use the iPhone.
If you want to use your iPhone with China unicom, you need to get it unlocked by your US carrier. Contact them to see what their unlocking policy is and if you qualify.

Subscribed Calendar shows only "New Event"s

Hi there:
I've searched and seen a few similar issues, but no resolution.
I have published a Calendar, and sent an email invitation for subscription to it. The URL is similar to:
webcal://ical.me.com/XXXXX/myCalendar.ics
Subscribing to the Calendar isn't an issue, from other user's computer. The Calendar shows up fine, but all of its events have no content other than "New Event".
Ideas?
Thanks in advance for any insight,
Patrick
ps: all events in question are "All Day" events, FWIW.

Hi Patrick - did you ever resolve this issue? I'm encountering the same thing.

Un -subscribed calendars showing in up in some lists but not in ical

Hi
Sorry i have an odd problem that i can't seem to solve.
I'm using 10.6.4 and mobile me to sync data across multiple devices i have recently bought an ipad and on turning mobile me syncing on, some old subscribed calendars have "popped up" on the ipad (which i thought was impossible !)
e.g. UK holidays was once subscribed in ical on my mac but had been deleted - this is now showing with current events and is listed twice in the calendar drop down on the ipad calendar app
in trying to resolve this i have noticed that the once subscribed calendars do show in itunes on the info tab twice (ITUNES > MY DEVICE > INFO > CALENDARS) so they must be held some where on my mac but
1) how can i get rid of them from my mac?
2) how can i get rid of them off my ipad?
i have tried resting mobile me data on mobile me
deleting All calendars and restoring to a previous back up
none have got rid of these calendars
any suggestions would be great!

Isolating this problem will likely require obtaining the account usernames and a possibly a request to share your content with someone at Adobe. Rather than asking you to provide that on the forum, I would recommend that you forward your description to [email protected] Someone will contact you directly to obtain the necessary details for the investigation.
Thanks,
Michelle

Subscribed calendars "Show Calendar On MobileMe" not available

Anyone know why the "Show Calendar On MobileMe" option is available on some webcal://ical.me.com based subscribed calendars but not others?
For example, in my iCal, two subscribed calendars originating from the same MobileMe user (URL webcal://ical.me.com/{username}/{calendarName}.ics) allow the "Show Calendar On MobileMe" option. Yet another subscribed calendar originating from another MobileMe user (URL webcal://ical.me.com/{anotherUsername}/{anotherCalendarName}.ics), does not offer the "Show Calendar On MobileMe" option.
Am running MacOS 10.5.8 (iCal 3.0.8). I, too, have a MobileMe account, btw.
Thanks for any help!

I seem to be having the same problem with repeated appointments:
I have an appointment with a start date of Tue 2nd Sept and an end date of Wed 3rd (created on iphone).
On mobileme.com it appears on Thursday 4th as well.
The appointment appears correctly in iCal (synced through mobileme, not iTunes).
Looks like a bug to me.

Icloud calendar showing events 1 hour early

I'm accessing my Calendar in icloud using Chrome (Version 35.0.1916.153 m) from my work PC. I've noticed that sometimes the events I've entered manually have mysteriously changed time so that they appear one hour earlier than I originally entered them as. If I double click the event to open it to edit it, the correct time is shown but as soon as I close it again it is listed incorrectly.
Any ideas?
Many thanks

I wish is was that simple. Unfortunately not all of the events in my Calendar are shifted. I'm starting to wonder if it is just events I created on my iphone that I'm viewing from my pc and vice-versa

IPhoto on Mac not showing photostream. My photos from iPhone were not on my Mac, I tried to import using cable. Now the photos show in iCloud only. It seems frozen. On trying to close iPhoto down got message that photos being imported. 6 hours ago

I have IMac on Yosemeite, 500GB. IPhone 5 on 8.2. My photos, from iPhone, had not appeared via photo stream on my Mac. I had been away from a while But expected the photos to appear on the Mac. There were 1000 in Photostream and 1200 in Camera Roll. I used a cable to import the Camera Roll, it stopped importing after 1000 photos. The photos, though, are in iCloud and I don't know how to access them to put them to Events. There are 3 recent Photostream events showing up in IPhoto withOut any photos. I tried to import to Library but was directed to Finder and no access to iPhoto. I tried to shut down iPhoto but got a message telling me photos were being imported. That's 6 hours ago and I'm still getting the same message. I don't know what to do. I'm not an expert, just a user.

HHi, thank you for the reply. I have checked my iPad and iPhone and neither has iCloud Photo Library (Beta) enabled. Turned off in both. Photostream is turned on.
i tried to sort it out by dragging all the photos to Events on the Mac and then deleting them from iCloud - (left hand side of iPhoto under the section 'Shared'). the photos now show up in Events. I did force quit but the issue remains. The message reads ' photos are bing imported to the library. Please wait for import to complete.'
i can't empty iPhoto trash either. The message read "Delete error. Please wait for import to complete.'
WHen I was moving the photos to the Events I always had a message about duplicates - to the effect that the photos already existed, did I want to import them? I clicked on Yes, import all duplicates. But when it showed the images - duplicates side by side - one showed the photo and the other was blank.
I really don't know what to do! And I don't know how to handle my iOS devices. Is it to do with the large number of photos? Any help, advice appreciated.

Create Calendar showing events

When I create a calendar using Photoshop 4 I want to have all of my events show on it. I have entered all of my events in the calendar view in the organizer but they don't show up on the finished calendar. When I create a calendar I cant figure out how to get my events listed on the finished calendar.
Thanks
Tim

>When I create a calendar I cant figure out how to get my events listed on the finished calendar.
If you mean the Calendar Creation that you print (and I think you do), I don't believe that those events will print. They are visible in the Date View of the Organizer - but the Calendar creation does not print them.
You are far from the first person to discover this after you have entered your events. There is a Features Request subforum/folder here at
http://www.adobeforums.com/cgi-bin/webx/.ef32bec/
so you can enter a request for a future version of Elements to print these events in Calendar creations.
I don't work for Adobe, so I can't give you any reason why. However, I do agree it is reasonable for you to expect that these events that you have entered would print.

Calendar show event on incorrect day - timezone miscalculation

I have an event that occurs on Thursday from 7am to 8am in Sydney, Australia. I am in Central time in the US, so it occurs on Wednesday from 2pm to 3pm. The event shows up in my calendar on Thursday. The event was created in Outlook I assume, and shows up correctly in my Outlook, but not Mac Calendar. Any ideas on how to get this to show up on Wednesday?
Thanks!

Time Zone support is turned on and linked to my current time zone correctly. Also, the event is now showing up on both Wednesday and Thursday. I am not sure what caused it to do that, but the problem originally started that way, then moved to just Thursday, and now it is back to both days.

ITunes shows 2,700 photos on my iPhone, but there's only 161 on the phone.

My iPhone's disc space is suddenly full. iTunes shows I have 7gb of photos (2,700)on my iPhone when I connect it, but my phone really only has 161.
I recently updated to iOS 4.0.1 on iPhone 3GS and iTunes 9.2.0.61 on Windows Vista. I was previously using iOS 3.1.3 and iTunes 9.0.xxx (not sure of which 9.0 version) and I had been using an App called Goodreader. I would transfer my files via USB with an .exe file called GoodreaderUSB to my iPhone. Now I can't since iTunes has been cracking down on that, and Goodreader uses iTunes to USB transfer with their new version and iTunes 9.2.xxx. I have a feeling my old USB transfers are all still in my phone, just unaccessible but iTunes is showing them as photos as far as disc space goes. This could be completely unrelated to Goodreader, but I have a strong suspicion it's the problem.
I've attempted multiple backups and syncs and I'm only syncing 84 photos (part of the 161 on my phone).
I also just realized it's showing 5.8gb of apps, when I did the math quick and only have 2gb of apps.
My iPhone also shows that I have used this much disc space when I run the app "System Activity Monitor."
Anyone know how to resolve this problem?

GoodReaderUSB originally worked by transferring files to a special location on a user’s iPhone, which iPhone’s GoodReader app was able to access. However, accessing this location was a violation of Apple’s iPhone SDK Agreement, because the app had to access files outside its own private storage space, which is forbidden by Apple.
Because of this, your only choice to fix this. at this point, may be to restore your phone as a "new" device in itunes and NOT from backup. Follow this by syncing your content back to your phone. Unfortunately, ALL saved data on your phone will be lost.

Why do certain media options show on PCs for the ImagePROGRAF 8300s, but not on our MACs?

Our shop had recently acquired a new imagePROGRAF 8300s large format printer. We've had a pretty good exprience using it, but realize a few things.
1. When installing the discs provided to us, by Canon, we noticed that when printing to "Scrim Vinyl Banner" material or "Gloss Photographic Paper 190 gsm" there is no option to choose these types of media on our MACs, having used the same discs for our PCs, but these media options show on PCs.
2. When checking for color profiles, there doesn't seem to be a color profile for scrim vinyl banner material on neither PC or MAC, even though it is offered as a media type.
I feel like I've installed almost everything I knew possible through the Canon support downloads. Not sure what else to do. Any recommendations?
