Weird "Christian" Calendar needs work

I've just downloaded the Christian calendar app for my new iPad 2.  This is obviously written for lapsed Roman Catholics.  Why?  Because it includes many RC holidays such as the Annunciation, the Assumption, Candlemas, etc.  But it lacks the most necessary dates for PRACTICING Christians like Ash Wednesday, Maundy Thursday & Good Friday. 
Where, oh where, is a good Christian calendar that includes the holidays that the millions of Methodists, Baptists, Presbyterians, Episcopalians, and Evangelicals need for their devotional life?

Thanks Ferd.  I have looked at that calendar.  It's nice because it includes the crucial dates I'm looking for, but it's rather weird in a different way.  All of the entries are doubled.  So Easter says "Easter" twice.  Good Friday is noted twice, etc.  The other peculiarity is that all the days are displayed as two days, instead of one.  I can't understand why a programmer would release a calendar with such obvious flaws.
So I'm still looking for a good Christian calendar.

  • ICal US and Christian calendar subscriptions

    I just noticed that these two Apple iCal subscriptions (US Holiday and Christian calendars) stopped working this week on multiple macs. Could these be related to mobileme ending, since the subscriptions are on mac.com servers?

    I had the same issue with the Christian calendar.  My US calendar is still working though.  You can get the US calendar from Apple at http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/calendars/usholidaycalendar.html.  Click Download and it should open up iCal/Calendars to let you subscribe.
    I can't find a Christian calendar hosted by Apple anymore (at first I thought they removed all religious calendars, but they still have Islamic and Hindu calendars, so I'm not sure).  Google offers one though.  You can subscribe to it if you have Google Calendars, and once you do there's an option to copy an ICS link, which can be used in iCal/Calendars.
    Try creating a new calendar subscription (in iCal/Calendars) and paste https://www.google.com/calendar/ical/en.christian%23holiday%40group.v.calendar.g oogle.com/public/basic.ics
    .  That's the link I copied from them, and I believe it should work even if you don't have Goole Calendars.

  • How old a version of Calendar will work with syncML?

    I need to know if our version of the calendar server will work with Oracle Sync Server or Oracle mobile data, and therefore syncML. How old of a version of calendar will work?
    We are running corporate time 5.4 (don't laugh too hard).
    Thanks
    Roger

    Only from collab suite server relase 9.0.4.2.x and higher.

  • How far ahead does calendar sync work?

    Does anyone know how far ahead the calendar sync works? Or is it limited to a certain number of entries - if so how many?

    Thanks.
    I had a few entries that didn't sync about 6 months ahead but they appear to be OK now. I've only recently started using sync (to Google calendar and contacts) and I've had a few teething problems. However most seem to have righted themselves so it's almost as if sync needs some sort of running-in period before it's fully up to speed! Odd.

  • Calendar Services working, now what?

    OK! so I managed to set up a new OS X server and managed to miraculously get Calendar to work. My experience is from iCal publish/subscribe era, and not exactly clear to me how this new protocol works.
    Server:
    Calendar Service is ON and I created 2 locations in "Location & Resources".
    Network Users: User 1(me), and User 2. Only User 1 has admin priv.
    Client:
    I have successfully added a calendar account. BUT, if I authenticate with User 1, then I can see the 2 locations that I set up on the server, but can't see them if I authenticate as User 2.
    I tried to edit the "Manage access to my account..." in iCal and gave write permissions to User 2, but still User 2 cannot see those calendars.
    I realize that my problems are maybe that I am stuck in the publish/subscribe thinking, but have run out of ideas.
    Questions:
    Is there a setting somewhere on the server to allow users to see those location Calendars? Or a different authentication credentials?
    Is this how it is supposed to work: If I want my assistant to read and write My Calendar, that I should add My Calendar to her client computer by authenticating using my credentials?
    I am convinced I am missing something, because then what is the point of granting access to an account, that others still cannot see?!
    Thank you in advance.
    Patrick

    For server based calendars and contacts there is no sharing across user accounts where you can have one person owning a calendar and you give another account read-only access.
    It is pretty rudimentary actually nothing as sophisticated as available on platforms like Microsoft Exchange.
    What you need to do (well what I did after I found out from my own research the level of functionality and how to set things up) is:
    Create a pseudo account for DAV access (Calendar/Contacts) I set mine up as (where domain is 'example.com' and server is 'server.example.com'):
    Name - "DAV Service Agent"
    account short name = "davagent"
    email = "[email protected]"
    No home folder
    Restrict to Calendar / Contacts / Mail services.
    Create DNS service records:
    Service type = _caldavs._tcp ; Port = 8443 ; Host = server.example.com
    Service type = _carddavs._tcp ; rest of data as above
    At client machines setup Calendar & Contacts to connect to server using pseudo user above.
    It works, I have all Mac & iOS machines setup to have server based shared contacts and calendars.

  • Configuring Mail and Calendar not working.

    Hello,
    I have just setup Mac OS X Server with my own domain (server.mydomain.com). I am having trouble getting the mail and calendar to work on my computer that is hosted on google apps. It will not connect at all. My email address is [email protected]  Could there be something wrong with the DNS settings of my server that is causing it conflict to connect? I am hoping someone out there can help me! At the moment I can not find anything anywhere to sort this out.

    For Mail.
    Do a backup.
    Take notes of all account information or take screen shots. You may need to set the accounts up again. Quit Mail.
    Copy the line below.
    ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.mail
    Select Go/Go To Folder from the Finder menu bar. Paste the line into the window. You won’t see it.
    Move the folder com.apple.mail to your desktop. You must move the entire folder, not just the contents.
    Relaunch Mail and test. If the problem is solved, recreate any required Mail settings and import any emails you want to save from the folder on the desktop. If the problem remains, return the folder to where you got it replacing the one that is there. 
    Information learned from Linc Davis.
    If you prefer to make your user library permanently visible, use the Terminal command found below.
    Show User Library Directory in Mac OS X 10.7 Lion & 10.8 Mountain Lion
    You might want to bookmark the command. I had to use it again after I installed 10.8.5. I have also been informed that if you drag the user library to Finder it will remain visible.

  • Calendar to work with Foxfire

    Hi! 10% of my users are on Macs and use Foxfire.
    While I can code rings around DHTML, alas, most of it doesn't
    work with Foxfire. What I need is a nice popup or popon calendar
    (actually, calendars) that can be used by IE and Foxfire users
    alike.
    I found a large popup calendar which works with both, but
    unfortunately, there are a large group of users who like BIG
    browser windows that fill up monitors. The popup often gets hidden
    behind the main window. Well! I won't go on about my troubles.
    I'd actually be happy with a small display calendar that can
    go forwards and backwards without any interactivity as long as it
    functions on both browsers. (oy!)
    Any thoughts or suggestions?

    OK - I tried CFcalendar. Unfortunately, it puts a heavy load
    time on my page. It takes so long to come up (even with a dedicated
    DSL line), that it makes the purpose of the page confusing.
    Anyway, I am evaluating this:
    http://www.meanfreepath.com/javascript_calendar/livedemo.html
    I lust after the one that says DatePicker. Put your cursor in
    that field -- it will blow you away.
    Unfortunately, the download version doesn't have the function
    that drives the button to the right of the field. I've asked the
    authors to help me out (although you never know whether they'll do
    that ... they seem to have a very active site, however). I'm also
    having some people with Macs visit the page to see if it works on
    their varieties of browsers. This is the most awsome calendar out
    there (and I've seen some awsome calendars).

  • Christian Calendars and Widgets

    As a Lutheran pastor with a familiarity to the Church's Calendar, Protestant and Roman, whoever did the Christian calendars for iCal had to be from some other tradition beside the Christian Church. I have found mistake after mistake. It needs redone. Today is just another example... The Week of Prayer for Christian Unity is the third week in January and not in October in any tradition I am aware of. It would be helpful to have an accurate calendar, but it is extremely unhelpful to have one that incorrect and beneath the standards I've come to expect in my time with Apple.
    Thanks

  • Subscribed Google Calendar not working

    I have set up my google calendar via CalDav and that's working great. But I also need to subscribe to my boyfriends google calendar, just to view what is there. So I have updated to 3.0 and I go into Settings -> Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Add Account -> Other -> Add Subscribed Calender
    I put in the address that google gives me to the .ics file for his private calendar. The it says "subscribed calendar account verification failed".
    Anyone else have this problem? And have you been able to fix it?

    I have not been able to get the google subscribed calendars to work either. I was able to connect my main google calendar via CalDAV, but you can't add additional CalDAV accounts. Subcriptions are not working at all. I get this error message every time: "subscribed calendar account verification failed"
    The method you describe here may work, but you won't actually get any updates because you have basically subscribed to a copy of the calendar, not the actual calendar that the original creator presumably keeps upto date.

  • Mobileme calendar not working with iphone 3.1.3

    I recently updated ical on my mac to 4.0.4 on my Mac running 10.6.7.  My iphone running 3.1.3 can no longer receive the mobile me calendar updates.  All the mail works fine.  I am not sure if the contacts are being kept up either.  I also have an iphone 4 running 4.3.3 and all the mobile me pieces work there.  I have recovered a backup and that didn't fix it.  Deleted the account and rebuilt it.  The only way I can get the calendar to work is to sync it on itunes but that is not satisfactory for adding calendar entries from my phone over to my mobile me cloud.  So...Has 3.1.3 been left in the dust? and I have to retire my old reliable phone?  Say it aint so.  Thanks  Terry

    It looks like that Apple eliminated with this upgrade one of the key functions of the iPhone: Mobility for Mailing.
    Hi Zolee, I have the original 2G iphone running 3.0 and I also have MobileMe and I also have 2 POP accounts as you do, however, I have not had any problems with my POP accounts at all.
    Wishing you a speedy "fix"!! Good Luck!

  • Why do we need Work Table in ODI???

    Hello All,
    Please help me on this..
    Why do we need Work table in ODI???
    Why ODI is creating c$_0table_name (work table)?
    Thanks
    Ravikiran

    Hi,
    this is the standard "Load Data" from LKM SQL to SQL
    +<%for (int i=odiRef.getDataSetMin(); i <= odiRef.getDataSetMax(); i++){%>+
    +<%=odiRef.getDataSet(i, "Operator")%>+
    select     <%=odiRef.getPop("DISTINCT_ROWS")%>
    +     <%=odiRef.getColList(i, "", "[EXPRESSION]\t[ALIAS_SEP] [CX_COL_NAME]", ",\n\t", "", "")%>+
    from     <%=odiRef.getFrom(i)%>
    where     (1=1)
    +*<%=odiRef.getFilter(i)%>*+
    +*<%=odiRef.getJrnFilter(i)%>*+
    +<%=odiRef.getJoin(i)%>+
    +<%=odiRef.getGrpBy(i)%>+
    +<%=odiRef.getHaving(i)%>+
    +<%}%>+
    as you can see in C$_ you could have some filtered data. If you have got a source table containing invoicing (10kk rows) you could filter last_update column and obtain 1k rows for example and copy only this tiny subset.

    while notes, reminders and calendar are working fine, keynote (beta) and pages (beta) are not responding, they are sticking. What should I do?  I would appreciate help.  Thank you.

    Unfortunately, most of my advice is in the "hindsight is 20-20" category.
    First off, I would never have purchased the peripheral accessories until the 14 day return period had expired. Second, you learned the hard way what the "14 days" really means.
    Too bad you didn't do any homework, reading this and other forums and tech sites. Even word of mouth from others. That, more than anything could have steered you towards different phone choices from the get-go and I will leave that there with no further comment other than to say most of the issues you described have been discussed in this forum, ad nauseam.
    Once you got into the refurbished phone exchanges, that is where things really went haywire. What someone tells you over the phone is a sketchy proposition, and when it comes down to it, it's your word against theirs.
    I think Verizon tried to make it right, though. Remember, they don't make the phones. Don't throw the baby out with the bathwater.
    You stated yourself you were a satisfied Verizon customer before this. Had the first two phones performed as they should, you would still be a satisfied Verizon customer.
    Doubt any of that will make you any happier, but after you went through the effort of writing such a long post, I thought I'd try.

  • Mail and Calendar need to close/reopen in order to connect

    Recently, my MacBook Air has been taking some time to connect to the Internet (via my Airport) upon waking from standby mode.  It connects to the Airport router immediately and all indicators suggest that I'm connected to the Internet, but I can't get to Google, etc. for about 45 seconds. Though this is not a major problem, it does take considerably longer than usual to connect to the Internet.  Further, it seems as though Mail and Calendar need to be shut down and reopened for both applications to connect to the web, Cloud, etc., even after Safari kicks in and I can surf the web.
    My MacBook Air is up to date with all software, etc. and I'm on 10.8.3.  My other devices (iPhone, iPad) seem to connect fine after "waking" them standby.

    Hello Michal,
    I've had my share of problems keeping ARD clients visible. Only thing I can think to suggest off the top of my head, is that you have one of the systems set to a different IP (as it looks like they are set alike), this may be confusing ARD.
