Two days missing on iCal

Two days on my iCal have become blank and I am unable to even add new events on those days. When viewed in the week or month view, the entire week and month are blank. Any idea what is going on and how I can fix it?

Greetings Josh,
1. First make an iCal backup: Click on each calendar on the left hand side of iCal one at a time highlighting it's name and then going to File Export > Export and saving the resulting calendar file to a logical location for safekeeping.
2. Remove the following to the trash and restart your computer:
Home > Library > Calendars > Calendar Cache, Cache, Cache 1, 2, 3, etc. (Do not remove Sync Cache or Theme Cache if present)
3. Test iCal
If the issue persists:
1. Remove the following to the trash and restart your computer:
Home > Library > Caches > com.apple.ical
Home > Library > Calendars > Calendar Cache, Cache, Cache 1, 2, 3, etc. (Do not remove Sync Cache or Theme Cache if present)
Home > Library > Preferences > com.apple.ical (There may be more than one of these. Remove them all.)
---NOTE: Removing these files may remove any shared (CalDAV) calendars you may have access to. You will have to re-add those calendars to iCal > Preferences > Accounts.
2. Launch iCal and test.
Hope that helps.

Time of day missing in iCal

I am using iCal 2.1 and the hour times do not show in the left column in week view. Noon is present, but no others. The dates disappeared after I upgraded to 10.4 this summer. Another computer on the home network running the same versions have the times showing.
I set up a new user, went into iCal and the dates show. All my prefs are the same in the "my account" and the "new user".
I am suspecting that there is corrupted prefs file of some sort, but I am reluctant to just delete files without knowing which one.
Any suggestions?

There are three iCal related plist files (at least on my computer) for each user. They are located in ~/Library/Preferences:
com.apple.iCal.plist
com.apple.iCal.helper.plist
com.apple.iCal.AlarmScheduler.plist
To determine if these plist files are causing the problem don't delete them, but simply move them to a convenient location (e.g. Desktop). Quit iCal before you do this. Then reopen iCal and see if the times are back. If yes then you know the plist(s) was the source of your problem. If not then I suppose you can move the plists back.
Hope that works for you.

ICal month view - appointments over two days

Very annoying but when entering a new event in the month view it defaults to an all day event - ok I can cope with that.
But when double clicking the new event to change it to a timed event (still in month view) and tabbing through the dates and time, the duration seems to default to 6+ hours, so after 17:00 defaults to being over two days and it is too easy to miss changing the end date.
Is there a way out of this?

In the month view, it's all down to the number of events you have on that day plus the size of the window/resolution of the screen.
If there's room, iCal will display all of an event's description, but if you shrink the window or add more events, the description will reduce in size- eventually into two columns - to give a chance of seeing all of them. Once there are more events than fit, you'll see an elipsis ( ... } at the top of the day. When this happens, you can only see ALL that day's events by going to week or day views.
You can potentially fit more in on the month view by turning-off the option to show the event time in month view in iCal Preferences.

Go to the App Store and check out the Purchases List. If iPhoto is there then it will be v9.6.1
If it is there, then drag your existing iPhoto app (not the library, just the app) to the trash
Install the App from the App Store.
Sometimes iPhoto is not visible on the Purchases List. it may be hidden. See this article for details on how to unhide it.

One question often asked: Will I lose my Photos if I reinstall?
iPhoto the application and the iPhoto Library are two different parts of the iPhoto programme. So, reinstalling the app should not affect the Library. BUT you should always have a back up before doing this kind of work. Always.

Good news - saved you a 2 hour phone call

TS1424 For the past two days the ITunes store says it is unable to process payments and to try again later - not like Apple to miss on sale opps. Is it my side with the problem?

For the past two days, i keep getting an error message on the i Tunes store that it can't process my payment and to come back later. Not Apple's MO to miss a sales opportunity. Anyone esle getting this message?

This my sound too simple, but I just kept clikning on the arrow next to the selected music and it finally "Kicked" in.

HT201269 Why isn't my cell phone backing up properly to my laptop? Backed it up three times in two days. I replaced my old cell phone, had to setup as new, then backed up from "last backup" but it didn't work at all. The last backup was available was mo

My cell phone will not back up properly to my laptop. I have tried three times in two days as I knew I was getting my new phone today and wanted to save all my information. The problem is that it backed up very random things like things from my IPod from years ago, and did not back up all the information it should have from my "old" cell phone. Now I am missing almost everything. What happened and can i fix this?

First, make sure you are using the most current version of iTunes 11.1.3 (8). Second, what version of iOS 7 was your old phone running, i.e. 7.0, 7.0.1, 7.0.2? If your back-up was made with a version of iOS that is newer than the version on your new phone, it will not sync. For example, if your back-up was of a phone running iOS 7.0.4, and your new phone was running 7.0.2 out of the box, the back up will not sync to the new phone until it is updated to iOS 7.0.4.

All Day events in Calenday spans two days

I mentioned this earlier, but thought I'd repost it into it's own discussion.
I've noticed that most (all?) of my all day events show up just fine in iCal (for a single day), but after syncing to my iPod - the iPod shows these all day events spanning over to the following day.
I just did a fresh iPod restore the other day so even if that did fix it - it was very very temporary.
And yes - at the time I checked that option to over write the data on the iPod.

No time zone issue here either. Strange. Just one of those things we will never know...
My lame fix?
List the event I want for "all day" at 3:00am. Then later, when I feel like it, go to iCal and change them to All Day. Course, that only works if you never move it in Outlook again (for example, it I move the all day event from Thursday to Friday it will once again, become a two day event in the iPhone).
Maybe someone at Apple could just fix this during a lunch break...I will even pay for the lunch!

All day events sync as two day events on iPhone (using MobileMe)

After starting to use MobileMe to sync calendars and contacts, I've started to have an issue with events that are marked "all day". As far as I can tell, regular timed events seem to sync correctly, but my "all day" events get put on the iPhone as two day events. I thought it might be a DST issue, but when I look at the details of the event it looks as though it's actually changing it to a two day event.
For example, someone's birthday in iCal desktop app will have the details:
all day
from: July 3
to: July 3
But on my iPhone it gets synced as:
all day
from: July 3
to: July 4
What makes this even more weird, is that when I log onto me.com, and look at the iCal web app, my "all day" events are all one day early. For the examply above, the event will appear on July 2.
This has really got me puzzled...anyone have any ideas?
Thanks,
Kenton

Same issue with me almost exactly...but the all-day events on MobileMe and on my laptop iCal are actually on the correct day rather than the day earlier as you describe. Only the iPhone is out of whack compared to MobileMe and iCal.
I tried syncing with iTunes and when that didn't display my all-day events correctly, I sync'd over the air by turning on MobileMe Calendar push. Both ended up with many all-day events spanning 2 consecutive days. However, not all the all-day events were incorrect, but several were. I haven't been able to establish a pattern.
I am using an iPhone 8G 3G, my G4 Powerbook 12" running 10.4.11, and a MobileMe account.
I spent a hour or two on the Apple site speaking with tech support over live internet chat. I was told there were lots and lots of sync issues going on and the tech was unable to solve my issue. He mentioned casually that many of the sync problems were occurring on systems running 10.4.11.
It would be encouraging to learn if this bug that puts all-day events across two consecutive days only on the iPhone (but not on MobileMe or iCal application) is happening to others out there.
Any others out there?

All day events created on iPod touch syncing a day late in iCal

Hi everyone,
When I create an all day event on the iPod touch and then sync to my mac, the newly created event shows up a day late in iCal, but remains correct on the iPod. I've noticed one or two other forums where people are having this problem but it doesn't appear to have been solved yet. Has anyone got any ideas about why this would happen? It's really bugging me as the calendar was one of the main reasons I bought the iPod in the first place, I'm thinking about taking it back if I can't get it to work. It appears to be a new problem as of some time this year (judging by other's experience, I've only had mine a week) so perhaps a dodgy software update?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

should clarify that I deleted duplicate events on the ipod so that should have left one in ical. there is still one listed in ical on the ipod but not on the computer, so deleting duplicate entry deleted it entirely from my ical on computer and mobile me. no icloud yet

Calendar missing from iCal's list.

Noticed today that our Work calendar is missing from iCal's list. Checked partner's iMac, iPad, 2 iPhones, MobileMe. Missing from all of them. Turned off syncing with MobileMe on both iMacs & all other devices. Quit iCal/Calendar on everything.
In Finder window selected ~/Library. Entered Time Machine. Selected ~/Library/Calendars. Selected a timeline a few days back. Clicked Restore. Said 'Keep both', & removed original from Library folder.
Opened iCal. When it first loaded the calendars, Work was there, but it quickly disappeared and what's more, events added in other calendars since the timeline date chosen were there too. So there's something else (to do with Sync Services?) I need to turn off or delete....?
I'll be very grateful for enlightenment here.
OS is 10.6.8

These are evidently MobileMe calendars, to which the Apple Tech Note linked to above does not apply; and turning off syncing in System Preferences>MobileMe>Sync has no effect on iCal syncing which no longer uses that method.
This is why your calendar is disappearing: MobileMe sees it as deleted, so every time you add it back in from Time Machine (whereupon it has an earlier modification date than the deletion) MobileMe brings it up to date by deleting it, and also updates the other calendars.
There is a method for dealing with this issue, though it's a trifle complicated and you need to work through the steps carefully and exactly. The process is detailed here:

New Macbook Pro transfer files from older Macbook Pro through WiFi--- BIG MISTAKE!! Two days of transferring!!

I just bought the new MacPro 2012, why does the transfer of my files from my old MacbookPro to the new MacbookPro taking so long? It is taking over 2 days over the WIFi!! It is ridiculous! Why did Apple give up firewire? Maybe this is a complaint. There should have been a warning on the possible length of time that it takes to transfer files. Most of us have photos, video and applications to transfer. There needs to be another way to transfer files. Am I missing something?? What if I needed to USE my laptop for work? it has been out of commission for 2 days, because of the transfer. Should I interrupt it? What should I do?

You waited two days?
I would have stopped after two hours.
I can do a full drive clone in under 2 hours, migrate manually in about a half a hour using a external drive.
Should I interrupt it? What should I do?
Yes, and there is obviously something wrong with one or the other machines.
I would hold the command r keys down and boot the new Mac into Recovery
Then use Disk Utility to erase the Macintosh HD partition
(use one step from the right if it's a hard drive and wait, it's better for it**),
Then reinstall 10.7 from Apple's servers (you need ID and password)
Install 10.7 compatible programs from fresh original sources (older PPC based ones from 10.5 and 10.6 won't run)
http://roaringapps.com/apps:table
You can learn how to reinstall your free iLife here as well as learn about Lion Recovery HD (partition on the boot drive)
https://support.apple.com/kb/HT4718
Then create other user accounts (if necessary) and then transfer files manually into the same named account's when logged into them.
You get a cleaner machine, because you find out what user files are corrupted on the original drive as those won't transfer as the drive will get stuck on them when you try copying/writing them in some cases.
This is know as a "fresh install" method, because basically only vetted files are returned to a new machine. Everything else is fresh and clean.
I do this method with all new machines and haven't have a lick of trouble ever. Hard drives can be slightly problematic.
**Sometimes what happens is a hard drive can't write data, this is where the secure erase method come in if it's a hard drive, as it maps off bad sectors ahead of time before laying of data when the secure erase is checked to make sure it occured.

Synching Calendar shows all day events over two days

Hello, been playing around with this for the last hour.
I run entourage and sync calendar events via itunes no problems, but today i noticed that some events for example birthdays were running across two days, checked them in calendar and they are fine, also check the events in ical and they are all set as one day.
When i synch the phone, i get an event running across two days????
tried various options, removing from one an sycnhing back and to, removed evertyhing from iphone and chose in itunes to Replace information on this iphone yet events are two days. Edit them on the phone and resynch and they appear again as two days.
Any suggestions?
Thanks for any advice offered?

I did, and said that there are others. I did not however specify a specific thread.
Is there some reason why you cannot search for answers using the search facility ?
Its not difficult - just like using Google. there are a few threads i have seen in the last week or so, but I'm too lazy to point them out for you.

Has anyone found and answer to this?

Any Ideas why my two day old ipad touch screen periodically doesn't respond to touch?

Any Ideas why my two day old ipad touch screen periodically doesn't respond to touch?

See what you missed here:
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
