Viewing extra hours in day/week view

Hi all,
When I view calendars in day or week view, it shows me the whole day, from midnight to midnight. Which is sort of a pain because I don't generally schedule anything for myself at 1 o'clock in the morning so I have to scroll down to where my day actually begins.
I remember I used to be able to change this in the preferences where you set the "Day Starts At" and "Day Ends At." So I changed that to 8 am and pm respectively. But all iCal did was grey out the time before 8. It didn't make those hours go away.
Is it just me? Is the app buggy or is this the way it's supposed to be? Any thoughts?

Hi,
I don't have a solution to your exact problem, but one option (if you haven't adjusted this already), would be to go into iCal preferences and choose a different setting under:
Show __ hours at a time.
I have mine set at 8, and although I do see some extra hours in the day, I primarily only see my working day. You can reduce this down as low as 6 hours.
Regards,
ML

Time not shown properly in Day/Week view

The time intervals in Day/Week view are replaced by "[Day-of-Week] AM/PM" and time in event info panel is replaced by the date. Does anyone know of a way to fix this so that it shows the time properly?

I have a similar problem, but the solution above does not work for me: in the time, the minutes are displayed as if it was a decimal number. For example, 18:00 is displayed as 18:0, with just one 0.
This is particularly bad if the time is say 18:01 because then it is displayed as 18:1, which clearly leads to confusion, as it could be 18:10.
I have checked the time settings under international, but it makes no difference. Further, the problem is in all the views, i.e. day, week or month.
Any help would be most appreciated.

Convergence U2 scrolls down to 11pm at the bottom of Day/Week view

I just noticed this on some SCSu2 test servers that I was hoping to put into production that is different from u1 and previous. When I am looking at the Calendar in Day or Week view, the events are scrolled up so that 11pm is at the bottom of the browser window. For many reasonable size browser windows, this means the normal workday hours are not all visible in the browser window, you need to scroll up to see them. Worse yet, every time you change the day, the view, add a calendar to the view etc, it jumps back down to 11pm at the bottom.
Did I screw something up, or can someone confirm this? It doesn't seem like this behavior would be desirable and thus be an option I don't think. If it works fine for someone else I can try to install a similar system and narrow down the cause. I see this with 137631-07 and with -08. Might it be possible to get an older copy of Convergence wedged into a U2 install to avoid this if I had to? There is at least one minor fix in -07 that I would like to provide for users. We are using -04 on the working server with U1. Thanks.

bug #6707198 - "Calendar - auto scroll to the current time does not works when switching to Day or Week view"
RFE #6856541 - "calendar server screen should be centered in function of the begin/end work hours defined by users"
I see this with 137631-07 and with -08.Behaviour also exists with -09 and -10 (pre-release).
Might it be possible to get an older copy of Convergence wedged into a U2 install to avoid this if I had to?What do you mean by "wedged"? You could in theory remove the -07 patch on a Solaris system (returning to the base Convergence package install) and apply an older Convergence patch (-04) however I wouldn't recommend it.
There is at least one minor fix in -07 that I would like to provide for users. We are using -04 on the working server with U1. I suggest you log a Support request to get the bug/RFE I mentioned above addressed.

Hours listed in Weekly View

When I open in Weekly View, it starts at 1:00am. I have already gone into preferences and selected for my day to start at 7:00am but it only shades from 7:00am on. I do not want to see 1:00am to 6:00am as I will never have any appts then. How do I make it start showing the times at 7:00am?

Show more hours in calendar week view!?

How do I show more hours in the calendar week view?
In iOS 6 I could see 10 hours, but in iOS 7 I can only see 8 hours. This might nit seem like a big deal, but it's extremely annoying!
And why can I not alter how many hrs I want to see in the preferences...?

You can turn your iPad to portrait mode but that only gets you 4 more hours. Beyond that I don't think there is a way to increase hours shown.

Day/Week view problem with times not showing

When I view the Day or Week option I do not get the times listed. Where the times should be it has "Sat PM" and "Sat AM" (the AM and PM are in the right place but all the times have been replaced with "Sat").
I have trashed all my plist files and started again. Restarted my computer etc. Any idea's how to fix this ?

I really appreciate posting your solution.
I played with this a bit, and IMHO his is a nasty bug. The times should show per preferences. I find that if I change any of the time preferences, the times disappear completely in iCal.
sigh I set the Region format for Japan, so I guess I'll have to live with a 24-hour clock.

Iphone calendar displaying wrong times in day/week view

I work a lot of night shifts and consequently I input a lot of night shifts to my iphone calendar. They usually work. However, in a couple of weekends time I have some nights which I have input as starting on 30th march 20.45 ending 31st march 08.00, but are showing as starting 30th march 8am ending 20.45!30th march in any of the graphic views. In the event the times and dates are correct
I've tried deleting and reinputting, tinkering with the time zone and more but nothing is working and it's driving me spare!
Suggestions please!

Never use "Timezone support"; Settings/MailContactsCalendars/Calendars.
When the settings are correct in the event, and not corresponding in the display:
Do a "reset": hold the Power Button and the Home Button at the same time, keep holding, when you see the white apple logo appear, let go and let the 5s start.

Not happy with Calendar View - Can we get a weekly view?

There seems to be no in-between for the calendar view. You can look at the monthly view which shows no detail, or you can look at the daily view which gives you only one day. List view skips days where you have no entries. There must be a graphical way to see what you have going on for the week. Anyone have any ideas? Could this be a future plug-in app?

View iCal's day and week view in reverse chronological order

Greetings iCalers,
When I think about day/week calendars, with the Y-axis being times of the day as in iCal's day/week views (e.g. "3:00 AM", and "5:00 PM" are in the leftmost column), I think about times building up to midnight from the bottom—i.e. the day starts at 12:00 AM on the bottom, with 1:00 AM above that, and the day ends with 11:59 PM on the top. I've learned that this intuition is atypical, and all calendaring systems I've come across work in the reverse direction, in line with the majority of people's intuitions.
I'm wondering if there's a way to get iCal to display in the reverse-chronological order. I suspect there isn't, and I've never seen a terminal command or apple script for it, but I'm hoping there is. If anyone know and could post it here, that would be great!
Thanks!
-Scott

It's cool, I figured out a solution: get over it and stop worrying about trivial issues to the point of excessive fussiness.

When I open ical, the calendar looks like an old desk pad vs what is in the manual. How do I change the view (not month, day, week), but the background presentation?

When I open ical, the calendar looks like an old desk pad vs what is shown in the manual or on-line tutorials. How do I change the view (i.e. background) not the month/day/week view but the background template? The default in the manual is good. Software is current - Lion.

ICal print in weekly view doesn't begin from monday but tuesday

Hello,
I faced a problem while trying to print a weekly view of my calendars. Even though I have adjusted the calendar in the setting so that the week starts from monday, every time I try to print a weekly view of my calendars, the weekly view is is alway for the dates Tuesday - Monday, NOT Monday - Sunday. I tried choosing in the printing view that the printing would start from the date 27th of october (monday), but instead, the first date on output was always Tuesday (28th). The same happened when i chose that area printed starts from next week - it starts it again from Tuesday not Monday.
Any help for this?

epee91,
What setting do you have in System Preferences...>Language & Region>First day of week:?

Week view not viewable

My iCal works fine when I select day or month view, but when I select week view the window disapears. It's not hiding off the screen somewhere as expose doesn't bring it in, but I can still view info about events and even print the week view. I just can't see it.
Help please?

Hi Jeremy,
Welcome to Apple Discussions.
Try deleting iCal's preference file.
To do this, quit iCal. In Finder go to Home/Library/Preferences. Move the file here called com.apple.ical.plist to the Trash. Re-start iCal.
If this doesn't solve the problem post back.
Best wishes

Show times in printed week view

Hey everyone!
I am a student at a universty in Belgium, Europe and I always print my weekly schedules with iCal. For I always print my schedule in a 5-days week view, the printed schedule doesn't show any start nor end times. But since my lessons start and end at rather odd times (like 10.25AM or 12.35PM), it's rather hard to deduct these exact times from the printed sheet. So I always print my schedule twice; once in list view for the exact times, and once in week view for a better view on the gaps between my lessons, which is rather unpractical.
Is there any way to show the start and end times in week view when I print it?
Greets and thanks in advance,
Gert Milis.
