Week view - repeating dates wrong!

Hi there. Strange problem this. When I enter a repeating event (all day) into iCal, say 16th July to 31st July, the block shows up fine in Month view and ends when it should. In Week view however it all goes a bit odd, and the 16-31 July example I gave for instance shows up as finishing on the 25th and won't go any further. I use this 'All Day' feature a lot for holidays and so on and it always worked fine in 10.4.9. Only had this problem since loading 10.6.3.
Any ideas?

Neither suggestion works for me.
It might be related to Week view vs. Month view and the start of the week. http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=11471375

Wrong month displayed in day and week views

I recently noticed that whereas the current month is displayed correctly in Month view, in Day and Week view the date is displayed as in January. This has been the case in both February and now March.
I sync my iCal with my mobileme account and my iphone and these don't have the same problem.
I have removed my com.apple.iCal.plist file and rebooted, to no avail.
Any suggestions what else I can do?

Thank you so much Ferd II
I kick myself. Though too my mind it is not logical to look inside Language & Text for a problem with month names. I forgot that last month I changed the date format to yyyymmdd in order to make it more logical sorting things. I have now reverted to day of week, day of month, month, year, and everything seems fine.

Ical appointment to busy not showing in week view

Hi, When I make an appointment in iCal there is no showing the difference between busy or free in week view. what is wrong?

I had the same problem!
I just subscribed to MobileMe. Added a To Do in Mail & looked for it in iCal.
I could not see it in iCal. Where is it?
Ok i wasted about two hours reading the mail help pages, Apple support discussion threads & googling on this until i realised what is the problem.
The answer is IT DOES NOT APPEAR IN YOUR CALENDAR!
You must UNHIDE the To Do list in iCal which will appear on the right hand side pane of iCal. Sheesh!!!
This is another example of Apple obsfucation in their apps.
The first time i tried to use the much vaunted iPhoto i nearly went mad trying figure out what it was doing & how to manage my precious images. Like a lot of these 'iApps' the interface is overly dumbed down & poorly documented.

Is there any way of dragging and dropping an iCal event showing in week view across to a date in the left sidebar monthly calendar?

Hi, Im not a frequent forum poster, as most of my questions can be found already answered on them!
This is a question Ive had for a long time and it amazes me that no-one else seems to ask it. I check at each OS upgrade but its never there...
Is there any way of dragging and dropping an iCal event showing in week view across to a date in the left sidebar monthly calendar?
I was able to do this years ago in MS Outlook, and utilized it all the time when I needed to push things back, now I have to open the event and select an new date in the drop-down calendar for each & every event I want to move to a new month at the end of the month.
If its definitely not possible, how to you ask apple to consider including it - it doesnt seem like a particularly difficult task.
Thankyou
Andrew.

Andrew,
Is there any way of dragging and dropping an iCal event showing in week view across to a date in the left sidebar monthly calendar?
No, but you can use cut/paste. Cut (⌘X) the event, then click on the week where you want to move the event, and Paste (⌘V).
If you have a suggestion for Apple to change that method use: Apple - Mac OS X - Feedback.

ICal Week view, Date is not aligned with the Time(schedule) of each date

Well, just like it says over there (`` ). I've recently been to China for a business trip, and I suppose the different time zone may have had something to do with the problem. Now I'm back home, changed the time zone back to normal, still the iCal shows in the weekly view that the Date on the above is not aligning with the Time and schedule. Any suggetions would be grateful!!!

Hi,
i omit the scheduling maergin key in material master,
the result of MRP is
BASIC DATES
Finish 15.10.2009
Start 14.10.2009
PRODUCTION DATES
15.02.2010 14:33:25
14.10.2009 07:00:00
scheduling type i planned order is still "backwards"
so in MD04 it is say that the goods is available at 15.10.2009 same with requirement dates.
this seem not right.
it seems that order finish date is not adjusted by lead time scheduling on "today scheduling".
Is there a way so order finish date is adjusted by lead time scheduling on "today scheduling" ????
Best regards,
Freddy Ha

No days or dates in weekly view

Just recently my iCal in weekly view hasn't shown the days of the week and the dates either. I have gone thru everything in the prefs and the menus and cannot find anything to bring them back.

It appears that that is a change in '11

Repeating long all-day events not shown in second portion of week view

When I create a long all-day event spanning from a Wednesday to the following Tuesday, I can see it in both the first and second week views that it spans. For example, I created an event spanning from Jan 9, 2008 (Wed) to Jan 16, 2008 (Tue). It is visible in both week views, i.e. from Jan 6-12, and Jan 13-19.
However, when the event is set to be a repeating one, it disappears from the second week view, Jan 13-19. The event is still visible on the Jan 6-12 week view. When the event has its repetition removed, it is immediately visible in the second Jan 13-19 week. There is some bug in the week view that apparently screws up repeating all-day events that do not begin on the week being viewed.
A fix on this would be greatly appreciated. Anyone else notice this?
Everything is normal on the month view.

I have exactly the same problem. I work a 21 week pattern of days off and on over a 17 day period, ending with a random 28 day block. So every 147 days I repeat that 28 day block named "random".
However, when the random block spans to the following month the entry is viewable up to the last day displayed in the month view but step forward to the next month and the entry cannot be seen.
Example: All day event starting on 16th Apr 2008 until 13 May 2008, custom repeat every 147 days (never end), appears in April month view up to May 4th. Step forward to May, which includes from April 28th and nothing is displayed.
Yet if it is not a repeat event it spans correctly!
I'm relatively new to OS X and can't remember for sure but I thought Tiger handled it correctly?
Can anybody confirm this?

Show date in week view

Is there a way to show the day and the date with iCal in week view? It seems quite a huge omission!

Nathan,
I am using OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.2) what version of OS X are you using?
This is what my "Language & Text" preference pane looks like:
It appears you are using Mac OS X Lion. Try Language & Text>Formats>Region:

ICal Date Headings Missing from Day and Week Views

Good morning,
A few days ago, the date headings disappeared from the Day and Week views in iCal. I can see the date heading in Month view, but when I switch back, the dates are missing. All of my events are there, and correct.
I have resolved font duplications and restarted iCal, to no avail.
Thanks for your help.
W

Still no date headings when my calendar is views in the Day and Week views. All of my appointments are there. The days of the month appear in Month view. But when I change to week or day, I don't know what day I'm looking at because there are no dates. Only "2010" appears in the upper left.
Any ideas? I couldn't be the only one this has happened to!
Thanks, Wendy

Imported ical from outlook and the date across the top of the weekly view all show the date i imported..

imported ical from outlook and the date across the top of the weekly view all show the date i imported..

I'm confused, what does iCal have to do with this, it seems as though you went from Outlook to Entourage, is that correct?

To do date changes in week view

Serious problem: when I'm looking at iCal in the Day View, I see the days events and to dos. When I switch to week view, somehow todays to do items don't show. They appear in last weeks view. This is particularly annoying when it's Sunday and I need to switch between weeks just to see what I have to do today. What can I do?

Perhaps try quitting iCal, then deleting iCal preferences in your User Library: ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.iCal.plist

ICal Week view acting strange

Hi. Is is just me or iCal's week view is acting really strange under Snow Leopard? I just upgraded to 10.6.2, and the problem continues, so I decided to post here.
The problem is the following: when iCal is in Week view, showing 7 days per week (as opposed to 5, workdays), I can scroll just a couple of weeks forward or backwards before it goes crazy. Sometimes it shows 6 or 5 days instead of 7 in the top of the window (but a different number of days in the appointments area itself, so that it appointment is shown between two days), sometimes it stops scrolling, sometimes an appointment appears to be in the wrong date (a birthday in 22-oct appears to be in 21-oct in week view, but appears in the right date in month and day views).
The problem only manifests itself when preferences are as following:
- Days per week: 7
- Start week on: Sunday
- Scroll in week view by: weeks
Any other combination makes it work fine (unfortunately this is exactly the way I wanted it to work...)
I have submitted this problem to Apple as a bug report, but got no answer (not a surprise here...). Is anybody else having the same problem? It is making me crazy not to know whether this is specific to me and my machine or a general bug.
Please advise!

i know exactly what you're talking about. I've been having the same exact issues you've listed, plus more. my repeating appointments (my semesters worth of classes) shift an hour back or forwards, but only after certain dates. its a whole bunch of weird stuff and it also only happened after Snow Leopard. i also sync via mobile me to my iphone, and the incorrect times push onto my iphone. anyone heard of this or solutions?

Bug in iCal weekly view

The weekly view in the default Calendar app on my ipad shows events ONE DAY BEHIND the correct date of the event. For example if I create an "all day" event for Friday 23rd July it will appear correctly on the 23rd in ALL VIEWS EXCEPT THE WEEKLY VIEW where it displays on the 22nd? This is happening with all entries. I have tried deleting & recreating the event and have tried re-boots etc., but the problem remains. Can someone help?

You can disable the context highlighting if you find that distracting. In this case it should make noticing that something is wrong more easily though. A link starts with a quote and ends with a quote and everything between the two is considered the link. If the second quote is omitted then it is the choice of the developer on how to deal with it. Either not to interpret the text in between (you may even have forgotten to HTML escape some characters &quote; &lt;) or try to catch up in case you forgot a closing quote. Both can have their disadvantages in case of an error from you.

Week view and task list solutions? Solved: a way to sync notes to Mac.

I've been using a Palm Tungsten T5 for years and routinely rely on the Palm's Calendar week view feature and task list. The week view is indispensable to see where I can fit in appointments. Are there any ways to achieve the same functionalities on the iPhone, whether using built-in iPhone apps or third party apps? The task list would have to include item priorities, due dates, alarms, and ideally repeating events.
I have found a way to sync notes from the iPhone to my Mac using MarkSpace's The Missing Sync for iPhone; notes are synced to the MarkSpace "notebook" application, where you can edit the notes (and copy and paste) and sync them back to the iPhone. This doesn't sync notes with any Apple applications, though.
If I could solve the week view and task list omissions, I could see my way to replace my Palm with an iPhone. (And when ePocrates releases a full suite for the iPhone, I'll be all set.) But in the absence of these, I'll have to keep using a Palm.

I'm in the same boat, unfortunately.
As a life long Palm-User the PIM-functionalities of iCal can only be described as "rudimentary". It is nowhere near DateBk6 for example. And I would be just fine if it would come close to say 50% of it's functionality. Right now it's at about 25%.
- no repeating tasks?
- no tasks+calendar in one view?
- no week view?
- no icons for event/task categories?
Come on Apple, such a great device with the amazing screen resolution, horizontal view etc. and you are not taking opportunity of it and get beat by 10 year old PDA's?

ICal Printing - "Week" View

Running
Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5
2008 MacBook
Trying to print from iCal: File -> Print.
My "Day", "Month", and "List" views all preview and print correctly.
The issue is with my "Week" view. For whatever reason, it doesn't cooperate.
I've included screenshots for more information.
Please advise.
Jay
