TZ of Day/Week/Month View is US/Pacific - Info Box & System TZ US/Eastern

Just noticed this - don't think its been happening for long - probably a couple of days at the worst.
When I create a New Event, the Time Zone is automatically incorrectly set to US/Pacific. I change it to Eastern (via Info Box) and it displays in the Info Box as Eastern, but the Daily/Weekly/Monthly view seems to remain at US/Pacific. (System prefs set to Eastern TZ).
In addition ALL my events display in Day/Week/Month view as US/Pacific TZ, even tho Info Box TZ (and system TZ) is US/Eastern.
For Example: Info box says event starts at 5PM goes to 9PM, Time Zone is US/Eastern. Calendar Display in Day, Week or Month shows event from 2PM to 6PM.
This has affected every one of my events.
I am running OSX 10.4.9,build 8P135 iCal Version 2.0.5 (1069)
iCal Support for Time Zones turned On.
Date/Time System Preferences appear to be OK
System Time (measured by Menu Clock and verified by save time on a file) is OK - (Am writing this at about 2:40PM EST, Sunday 6/3/2007.

It was US/Pacific -
I just changed it to US/Eastern and everything seems to work correctly now. I never even noticed that setting before - I guess I may have reset it by accident?
I see you're from Bristol, UK. A friend told me a few hours ago that he has to make a business trip there sometime this summer and was thinking about bringing his family (from Boston, USA). We were not too clear on English geography tho - is Bristol a decent family vacation destination?

View Modes - Day-Week-Month

Does anyone know of any way to add a quarterly view mode? (in otehr words being able to see 90 days at a time as an added view option - Day/Week/Month/Quarter)
If not, are there any third party workarounds that can modify and provide a 90 day view mode in iCal?
At the very least is there any EFFECTIVE way to communicate and get this easy enhancement added to the upcoming version of iCal.
It is incredibly inconvenient to have to move calendar items to the following month with the restrictive view of only one month. IN other words, if I wanted to move an appointment from February 24 to say March 20 I am forced to manually open the item and type in new dates.
A great system program known as DateBook Pro 4.0 had such a view option and I absolutely miss it EVERY day!

I am experiencing the same symptoms - Day, Week, Month and the Today button are all grayed out. It particularly seems to happen if I've left iCal running overnight. The only way I've found to fix it is to re-start iCal. When this is happening, the only way to navigate to a different week (or month) is to use the menu "Go to date" function. I think the onset of this problem relates to an Apple software upgrade , but I can't be sure which one.

Highlighting multiple days in Month View?

Hello everyone & Happy Friday All !!!
I'm new to this forum, and VERY new to using ical -
Here's my question:
In my old method of using a calendar to do my schedule on my old PC -
I'd make a spreadsheet in MS Excel that would show me monthly views that I could highlight days,
weeks or entire months..... It's crude in comparison to ical, yet it IS effective for my needs......
I am used to highlighting either a single day or a string of days in my "month" view,
so... for example - let's say that Monday thru Thursday of next week I am going to be "out of the office in London - UK" -
I would simply highlight the four days of next week - and instead of leaving those cells "white"
like every other day in the month - I'd change those four cell's colored "fill" option from white to
bright yellow - (or any other color that signifies a specific action or function - like "green" for vacation days, or "blue" for a sick day or surgery, etc....
This way - that at a glance (literally) - I can tell that I'm "out of the office" on those days next week that are colored other than "white"..... NOTE: the ENTIRE CELL - Not Just the Day Title is colored......
(I wish I could insert a visual example of what I am trying to describe here...)
Is there a way of doing this same kind of function in ical - so that I can have an "at a glance" or
"heads up display" that I can see quickly and know I'm committed on those days next week - or
any week or group of days for that matter?
This would help me tremendously of there is a way of doing this...... Otherwise - I'll be STUCK
in the 90's using my improvised Excel Spreadsheet Calendar.....
Thanks in advance for your help

Welcome to the discussions, azstoneconsulting.
In iCal colours are tied to specific calendars, so make a vacation calendar and a sick calendar (you forecast your sickness? Cool) and an out of office calendar and set the colours to whatever colour suits. Then when you are going to be in London select the out of office calendar and set it to last the four days. It will show as a coloured bar across those days in month view.

Changing the default event time to all-day in Month View?

I updated to Mavericks today, and when I went to add an event to my Calendar, I discovered that all-day was not the default time. In Mountain Lion, when going to add an event in Month View, it was automatically set to all-day, which is perfect because all of my events are all-day events. Now, it's being set to 9:00 to 10:00, and I have to check the box to make it all-day. I know that this isn't much work, but when I'm adding dozens of events it starts to get a little annoying.
Calendar 7.0, OS X 10.9 (Mavericks).
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

npatelaz,
I don't think that it is possible, even using Terminal. If you want to change your workflow, "all day" events can easily be created in the Day/Week view, but as you stated the Month view poses a problem.
Calendar Help says:
To make:
An event that lasts all day:
In Day or Week view, double-click in the “All-day” section at the top of the calendar.
An existing event last all day:
In Day, Week, or Month view, double-click the event, click the date, then select “All-day.”
A multiday event:
In Week view, drag from the start time to the end time. You can drag across multiple days.In Day or Month view, create an event. Then, enter the start and end dates and times.
An all-day event into a multiday event:
In Week view, drag the all-day event across multiple days.

Disconnected Slicer in PowerView - Hour | Day | Week | Month | Year | Max

I want to create a Power View chart in Power BI with the Minute/Hour/Day/Week/Month/Year filters:
Workbook can be downloaded at:https://www.dropbox.com/s/r00btg5zb8snohz/Disconnected%20Slicer%20Demo.xlsx?dl=0
when MINUTE is selected the chart should display:
Total Number of Msgs vs. X-axis showing the last 60 seconds (from current time) with 5 or 10 seconds interval.
when Hour is selected the chart should display:
Total Number of Msgs vs. X-axis showing the last 60 minutes (from current time) with 5 minutes interval.
ex: 10:00AM 10:05AM 10:10AM ...................................11:00AM
when DAY is selected the chart should display:
Total Number of Msgs vs. X-axis showing last 24 hours (12AM to 11:59PM with 1 hour interval)
when WEEK is selected the chart should display:
Total Number of Msgs vs. X-axis showing the last 7 days from current datetime stamp with 1 day interval.
when MONTH is selected the chart should display:
Total Number of Msgs vs. X-axis showing the 30 days from current datetime stamp with 1 day interval
when YEAR is selected the chart should display:
Total Number of Msgs vs. X-axis showing the last 12 months from current day with 1 month interval
It would be great if the PowerView chart can be made to look something like this:
shown in the below link:
When '5 Day' is selected the values in the Y axis and X axis change automatically.

Hi Manjunath,
Currently looking into a possible solution although some of the limitations within Power View restrict how close we can get to the ideal result. Still exploring some approaches :)

ICalendar: How do I know what day, in month view, I am working on?

The calendar in Mavericks is so frustrating compared to SL. How do I know what day, in month view, I am working on? There is no highlight or box or anything. Am I missing something? Also I suppose its not possible to just see 1 month anymore like it use to be instead of seeing 6 weeks. Thanks. Sure wish Apple would let us keep our Macs the way WE like it with a classic setting everytime they add something that they think is better. Like those awesome grey icons all over the place instead of color.

The day with the red line on top is today

Multiday event should span days in month view

Hi all,
I have an event that spans multiple days (begin is Dec 3 @ 12 AM, end is Dec 6 @ 12 AM), but it only appears in one day on iCal's month view. In week view, the event spans all three days.
How can I ensure that an event that spans days +actually visually+ spans the days in month view?
Thanks,
Matthew

Is there not any other way. I to have events that are not actually whole day events but that are spanning mulitple days.

Changing colors for days in month view

My work schedule fluctuates so that I don't work the same days every week during a month. Is there a way I can change the color of some of the days in month view so that I can quickly see my work days in ical?

Calendar in List view different from Day and Month view

When I look at my Calendar in 'List' view all of the Birthdays and Events are in the wrong date but in 'Day' and 'Month' view they are correct.
Has anybody found a fix for this yet? I have looked at similar discussions but they are all a couple of years old and none seem to have found the solution

It looks like I have found a solution - it is to do with the birthday dates - if you delete the year of any pre-1932 birthdays it solves the problem!

Since switching to Yosemite, I am unable to paste any information into calendar events, instead having to type out all info such as location, notes, etc. This is true both in daily view and weekly/monthly views as well. Help?

Color in days in month view?

Hi,
Is there any way to color in specific days in month view in iCal. Like, for example, instead of appearing in their default white, I would like Monday's and Wednesday's to appear in Green. Is there a way to do this?
Thanks

Lisa,
Here are some of the iCal event creation rules which may help you:
Enter a name, date, and time duration for the event, and then press Return.
For example, you can enter “Super Bowl Party Feb 6,” “Movie with Rebecca on Friday at 7pm,” “Soccer Game on Saturday from 11am-1pm,” or “Breakfast with Jon,” and then press Return.
If you don’t enter a time duration for the event, iCal sets the event’s duration to 1 hour.
If you don’t enter any time information for the event, iCal makes the event an all-day event.
If you enter “breakfast” or “morning,” iCal sets the event to start at 9 a.m.
If you enter “lunch “ or “noon,” iCal sets the event to start at 12 p.m.
If you enter “dinner” or “night,” iCal sets the event to start at 8 p.m.

I need to show all these four columns in a horizantal table. I am using crystal reports2008. Please help me. ur help would be appreciated.
Anil.

Hi,
create 4 formulas for day, week, Month and year
for ex, in Day formula
IF Date Field = CurrentDate then 1 else 0... similarly for other ranges. Create a Group based on employee, and insert a SUM summary field of these formulas in Group header.
Hope this will help you.

How to scroll within a day in month view?

Busycal can scroll within a day in month view (eg. too many events in a day that requires you to open the day view to see all the events). Can this be done in iCal?

I found some javascript code that solves this problem. Credit
for the code has to go to the person who wrote the excellent
article at the following link:
http://www.switchonthecode.com/tutorials/javascript-tutorial-the-scroll-wheel
If you read this article the code below should make sense.
From this article i used the hookEvent and cancelEvent
functions. In my particular case I embed the SWF object inside a
JSP page using some javascript code. After the SWF is loaded i
added the following line of code:
hookEvent('my_swf_id', 'mousewheel', handleMouseWheel);
where handleMouseWheel is defined as follows:
function handleMouseWheel(e)
if (document.getElementById("my_swf_id"))
document.getElementById("my_swf_id").focus();
return cancelEvent(e); // This is the key to the solution...
When the mouse is over the datagrid in the SWF i can use the
mouse wheel to scroll its contents without the main browser window
scrolling at the same time.
Thanks to all who took time to post their ideas, it was
appreciated.

Calender:Obtaining days/weeks/months between a start & end Calendar range

I have a startDate and endDate of Calendar type. From this start and end calendar values I want to obtain all the days/weeks/months.
Eg
Calendar beginDate; // is 14-Oct-2006
Calendar endDate; // is 20-Mar-2007
If I am looking at the months between the two calendar values, I want to be able to know that
[1] there are 6 months
[2] The months are Oct 2006, Nov 2006... Mar 2007 (across years i.e. 2006 and 2007 as well)
I want to be able to have a generic solution to do this at the days and weeks level as well.
Really appreciate all help.
Thanks,

I was able to come up with a solution, if any better is known, please suggest:
Summary of what I did:
[1] First formated the end and start Calendar dates using SimpleDateFormat, and brought it to the 'MMM yyyy' structure, so that I have a common base to compare on
[2] depending on condition, I increment the month and copy the result into an ArrayList that I need for use later.
Snippet of the code is here:
SimpleDateFormat monthYear    = new SimpleDateFormat("MMM yyyy");
ArrayList<String> MonthInDateRange = new ArrayList<String>();
Calendar calTempDate, calStartDate, calEndDate, calCurrentDate;
String StartDateFormat, EndDateFormat;
TempDateFormat = StartDateFormat;
StartDateFormat = monthYear.format(calStartDate.getTime());
EndDateFormat = monthYear.format(calEndDate.getTime());
MonthInDateRange.add(StartFormat); // Starting Month
calCurrentDate = calStartDate;
while ( !(TempDAteFormat.equalsIgnoreCase(EndDateFormat)) ) {
            calCurrentDate.add(calCurrentDate.MONTH, +1);
            TempFormat = monthYear.format(calCurrentDate.getTime());
            MonthInDateRange.add(TempFormat);
Would like to know whether any of you have used a function in Calendar that can help me acheive the same thing, but in a more efficient manner. As I am looking for something generic that I can use at different levels daily,weekly, monthly (currently what I solved above), etc.
Thanks,
