TS4118 How do you get rid of duplicate calendar events on iPad?

I just synced my iPad with my MacBook (which I do all the time) but this time, it resulted  in duplicating all my iPad calendar events (events do not appear as duplicates on my MacBook).  This happened immediately after I enabled iCloud syncing of my calendar.  I have now disabled Icloud syncing and I just synced my iPad with my MacBook again.  The events are still appearing in duplicate on my iPad.

iTunes settings for iPad and iPhone are independent.  If your iPhone doesn't have duplicate entries, check your settings when plugged into iTunes, then use the same settings for your iPad.  But, it really sounds as if you've simply enabled calendar syncing directly from your Mac when it's plugged into iTunes.  This will then update your iPad's calendar with whatever's in your Desktop calendar when you plug it in to iTunes.  Uncheck this setting in iTunes when you next have your iPad plugged in to sync, and the duplicates should disappear, leaving only those events pulled down from MobileMe.  The plug in sync option is for people who don't use MobileMe.

  • How do I get rid of duplicate calendar entries in my notifications?

    I managed to get rid of all my duplicate calendar entries on my calendar.  I unchecked all but the two calendars I use.
    The problem is that when I go to my notifications screen, under "Calendar", it still shows all my entries like three times.  How do I get rid of this?  It takes up all the realestate on my notifications.

    Sounds like your syncing Calendars over the air with iCloud, as well as with a supported Calendar application on your computer. Doing both will duplicate your entries, so do one or the other, not both.

  • How do you get rid of extra calendars??

    I've upgraded to 2.0, now I have several calendars on there that I don't need. They only seem to appear on the iPhone. Only two are valid calendars. How do I get rid of the rest?

    I would try adding them back, then syncing the phone, then removing them from the computer, then syncing again.

  • How do i get rid of duplicate songs on my ipad that are not in itunes

    I have multiple devices and recently joined iCloud and iMatch.  My problem is that on my iPhone 4 and iPad when I connect they show that I have 4800 songs on them.  I only have 1400.  The extra songs are not on itunes and are not on the devices.  If I select the device drop down and the look at music I can see all 4800 and it's multiple duplicates of songs that I own with a Syncing symbol by them.  I can not select them, delete them or anything.  But they are taking up space on my devices according to iTunes.  iDeas?  This is on a PC Win 7

    Hello courtney_rae33,
    It sounds like you have deleted song music from your iTunes library on the computer but after syncing the phone to your computer the songs are still on the phone. From what you describe it seems as if iTunes and the iPhone are set to Manually Manage the content. This article will help you determine of that is the case:
    Managing content manually on iPhone, iPad, and iPod
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1535
    Connect the device to your computer.
    Open iTunes.
    Select your iPhone, iPad, or iPod. If your device isn't visible in the upper right corner of the screen, choose Library.
    Click the Summary tab and select "Manually manage music and videos."
    Click Apply.
    Manually add or remove content on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod
    After following the steps above, you can add individual songs, videos, and playlists from iTunes to your device. To add content to your device:
    Select your device.
    Click "On this Device."
    Then choose "Add to" in the upper right corner.
    While viewing the media in your iTunes library, if you drag a song, video, TV show, or Movie a sidebar will appear on the right. You can drag content onto the device.  You can also create and modify playlists directly on the device.

    All the best,

  • How do I get rid of duplicate songs on my iPad that cannot be deleted?

    I bought an album very recently off iTunes (Lana Del Rey - Paradise Edition), and when I sync the album along with all my other songs from my mac to my iPad, the album has every song duplicated, with the second song of every copy unable to be played and so the iPad automatically skips these songs. When I try to delete them off the iPad by swiping to reveal the delete button, nothing happens. However I can delete the original songs that were copied from which then leaves me with an entire album with every song skipping the next!
    So, my question is, how do i solve this?
    I've tried restoring the iPad, unchecking and checking the album between syncs, but to no avail.

  • How do I get rid of multiple calendar events on my iPhone?

    iPhone calendar is showing multiple instances of the same event for most of my iCal calendars. I am not using iCloud, although I tried to a while ago and the problem began then. The problem stopped but has returned. I have signed out of iCloud, exported all calendars, trashed the contens of User/Library/Calendars and re-imported the calendars. I have done this many times in fact and still have the same result. Some events repeats as many as 15 times on a single day. I am using OS 10.7.5 with iCal 5.0.3. The phone has IOS 5.1.1. Thanks in advance for any help with this.

  • HT1660 i have two independent itunes libraries on my computer right now. how do i consolidate them into one library? how do i get rid of duplicate files?

    i have two independent itunes libraries on my computer right now. how do i consolidate them into one library? how do i get rid of duplicate files?

    Hello rmunsey,
    Thank you for the question.  It sounds like you have two separate iTunes Libraries but would like to add the music from one to the other to have one consolidated library.
    If you know where the files are for each library, I recommend opening one iTunes Library in iTunes and importing the files from the other library using the following steps:
    Open iTunes
    From the File menu, choose one of the following choices:
    MacAdd to Library
    Windows
    Add File to Library
    Add Folder to Library
    Navigate to and select the file or folder that you want to add
    Adding music and other content to iTunes
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1473
    Next, you can search for duplicates:
    Choose View > Show Duplicate Items to show duplicate items (matches are based on the song name and artist). If you have multiple versions of the same song (for example, live and studio versions, or versions from different albums) you can hold the Alt or Option key (for Mac OS X) or the Shift key (for Windows) and choose View > Show Exact Duplicate Items. This will show only duplicate songs having the same name, artist, and album.

    This should help you identify the duplicates all at one time so that you can delete the extra versions of songs.

  • I just got an iPad 2 and have not yet synced to my computer. I don't want to have all the duplicate songs in my iTunes. How do I get rid of duplicates?

    I just got an iPad 2 and have not yet synced to my computer. I don't want to have all the duplicate songs in my iTunes. How do I get rid of duplicates?

    You don't say whether you are on PC or Mac. For Mac there are these two programs which might help (I havn't tried either) :
    http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/ipod_itunes/songsergeant.html
    http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/ipod_itunes/idupe.html
    There are probably similar programs for PCs, but I don't know what they are. On a PC you can hold the shift key and do File > Display Exact Duplicates (without the shift they may not be exact matches) - if one of each duplicate pair has the same date added then you can sort by that and then delete those with (or without) that date.

  • How can I get rid of duplicate birthdays in icloud Calendar, especially when there are no Contacts in the iCloud? Case ID: 365381395

    How can I get rid of duplicate birthdays in icloud Calendar, especially when there are no Contacts in the iCloud? Case ID: 365381395

    Found the answer myself while helping to set up iPhone.  It is simple when you know how.  Before signing out of iCloud to sign in again and restore the link to Photo Stream I had opted to copy iCloud contacts to the Mac.  When I signed in again this created two iCloud views which can be seen in Contacts Preferences.  I just disabled one of them.  Not brave enough to attempt removal but I gues this would work too.

  • HT4007 How can I get rid of duplicates in a project with out deleting them one by one?

    How can I get rid of duplicates in a project without deleting them one by one?

    What kind of duplicates? Did you import the same image file several times? Aperture does not have any built-in tools to detect duplicates. You will have to do delete the one by one. You could arrange the images by date, so that duplicates are shown side by side in the Browser. Or use a tool like Duplicate Annihilator (the program is not free). I have never tested it but some do recommend it.

  • How do you get rid of yellow triangular with ! in middle that appear against some of my bookmarks on my bookmark toolbar?

    I have yellow triangles next to some of my icons in my bookmarks and bookmark toolbar. They have an exclamation mafrk in them. It probably happens when there is difficulty connecting to them. But they hang around. How do you get rid of them even when the bookmark works fine? I have FF 4.0 on a Snow Leopard Mac.

    This issue can be caused by a plugin or an extension that is not compatible with Firefox 3.6 and isn't working properly anymore.
    A toolbar like the "ZoneAlarm Spy Blocker Plugin Stub for 32-bit Windows" and other toolbars like "Ask.com" or "My Web Search" can cause this issue.

  • How do you get rid of 'empty' pre-roll time in logic pro 9?

    how do you get rid of the pre-roll time in logic pro 9?  
    My project's start time is 8-bars before any material, or tempos, or anything...  
    Can't move the start time back to ")" (zero)    STUCK!!  at -8
    The song now has 20 seconds of dead air time in a pre-roll.
    None of these worked or revealed anything...
    -tried making a new copy of song
    -looked into every track's file information looking for a spurious entry
    -tried deleting the time/space

    Hi
    Check for any Track Automation nodes in the "preroll'.

    Edit
    You should note that generally negative (or zero) project start numbers should be avoided at all cost: there are many peculiar behaviour problems associated with them.
