Which calendar app do you use for multiple calendars?

Hello and Happy New Year! 
Here's my situation:  I am iPhone5S, iPad2 & MacBookPro13; DH is Droid& Dell and children are iPad Minis & Dell.  Their PCs run Win7 & 8.
DH & I use Google calendar to organize our schedules.  Now all 3 kids have Minis and I want to allow them to see their appointments and our goings-on for the week on their calendars (we homeschool).
I see that Apple doesn't allow you to assign one event to multiple calendars.  For instance, DH & I need to know that Boy#3 has bball practice on Tues & Thurs nights but so does said child.  So, ideally, I'd love to assign our main calendar that event AND the "Boys Calendar."  Would even be cool for each kid to have his own calendar but I won't split hairs at this point.
Here's the rub: I don't want the kids to have access to our main calendar on Google.  DH & I have finally got it down and coordinated and I don't want them screwing it up or seeing our events.  Some of them are private and just between hubs and me, if you know what I mean.    I'd like my kids to open up their calendar and only have appts on it that pertain to them and their week/month.  And I'd like to be able to see it all - even if it means I see duplicate events on a given day which indicate that the event is on two different calendars.  Sort of like the colors of iCal but with the ability for the kids to just see their colors.
Does anyone use a good app that allows you to pick which calendar to assign an event to, even multiple calendars?  I tried Fantastical but it doesn't let me assign to different calendars. Any.do is a don't for me.
Would love any feedback on what you've used successfully to organize your family.
Thanks so much!  I appreciate your kind and considerate feedback.
Warmly (literally),
Kim in Phx

Right? I know. This just seems utterly ridiculous to me in this day and age. Maybe I'm mistaken but I was under the impression that there has to be an app that does this for people. I mean, how hard can this be? I wonder if I just keep my main calendar and invite my kids to their events. I wonder if that will work?  I really don't want to be creating three different calendars copying and pasting events and trying to juggle 4 different calendars.  How cool would it be to have everybody assigned their own calendar and then the master calendar can decide who to assign the events to?  Like in iCal when you go to assign the calendar, instead of having one option, you could have all the calendars as options. I have two boys to do karate together, one boy who does basketball alone, and one boy who does flag football alone.   I'd love to put karate on the schedule and then just assign it to the two calendars of the boys who are taking tae kwon do now.  Create one event and then you decide which calendars to list it on.
I'll keep looking to see if anything is out there but I'm not sure that it can cross both iOS and PC platforms.
I really appreciate your info and the time you took.
Thank you so much,
Kim

  • Which SATA drivers do you use for nForce3 chipset?

    Windows Generic or the ones that come with the nForce3 drivers?
    When using the nForce drivers, my hard drive operates louder and the light appears to be flickering a lot more (indicating more hdd access) when compared to the Windows XP drivers.
    Which do you use? What should I be using? I remember reading some threads that said nForce SATA drivers suck... but that was months ago.
    Thanks for any info

  • Which CPU Cooler did you use for your CPU?

    Hi guys, just wondering, what CPU Cooler did you use in your mega 865?
    Did you use the Intel or the MSI CPU cooler?
    Which do you think is better?
    I used the MSI CPU Cooler, Which I think is better cause it has a copper base which can transfer heat faster. Also the heatsink must have been designed for the case too.

    ^
    The Mega 865 came with an additional "extra page" on how to install the Intel CPU Heat Sink into the 865, so it could be that msi thought that intel's solution was better? The manual of course had how to install the msi heat sink, so rather than printing the manual again, they provided an extra information sheet.

    I just got my iSight iMac 20" couple days ago and want to upgrade with another 1GB memory, so I am wondering which 1GB memory module do you use or purchased from?
    I have looked up samsung and crucial, and I found newegg.com provides the best price so far.
    So please let me know what memory you have and where you got it. Thank you!
    By the way, will memory become cheaper during thanksgiving?

  • Which synths (hardware) do you use for electronica?

    I own practically all of the soft synths that are currently out there. However, I have yet to find convincing deep fat bass sounds and fear I may not be able to unless I buy some hardware. I've used Spectrasonics, Arturia, NI, GMedia, and the Albino, just so you know. I am looking at the Virus TI, Juno, Harmman, and Clavia. Please comment if you have used the above soft synths to get good analog-type fatness and offer advice on how to get these. Alternatively, please comment if you think that hardware is the only way to get such marvelous sounds.
    Best,
    SX

    This is just a personal opinion but...
    Having made electronic music since about 1976, during which time I've owned about every analog synth ever made--ARPs, Moogs, Rolands, Oberheims, Wasps, modular/mono/poly, and a slew of digital synths and samplers, I'd say there was NOT ONE that just magically produced the warm fat bass sound you're talking about. Sorry to disappoint! I think most of today's softsynths sound just as good if not better 'out of the box', and they're a lot more manageable than the beasts we had to deal with in those days.
    Whatever the source, the key to making any merely 'good' sound into a world-beating winner is (a) composition (b) context (c) EQ and dynamics.
    (a) You need a great musical arrangement to make the bass sound shine. A sexy bassline will compliment any sound, but it has to work in tandem with the overall musical composition.
    (b) The context is vital. If the part is competing with other frequencies, tonalities, harmonies, rhythms, chords or even lyrics, it won't sound good.
    (c) Finding the right EQ curve to make efficient use of the sound is not always easy. Many people think it's just about maximum low end. Not so! How many awful sounding club (or car) audio systems have you heard where the low end was massive. Many great basslines are actually very light in low end. Sometimes it's best for the bass to exist in its own deep dimension, underpinning the rest; other times it should hang tight just below the other instruments. Try exaggerating the character in the sound; then try downplaying it. Dynamics are often overlooked too. If there's no space for your bass to operate in, it'll never sound good. Close your eyes and listen to the 'shape' of the music--then tweak your ADSR, and also think about the overall compression/limiting of your mix.
    I believe a great bass sound has to have singularity. Effects like doubling, chorus, harmonizing, multiple VCOs, phasers/flangers/reverbs, distortion, are fine for higher register parts but they all tend to muddy up a low bass sound, and are often used a crutch when the other issues above don't get addressed. Synth makers are guilty of this, and many factory presets tend to pour on the FX instead of providing solid fundamentals. That's why I loved the Nord 3--without relying on any FX, the purity of the sounds was so great. On the other hand, the Virus TI has such incredible resonance it excites your ears into a frenzy. There's no magic formula--just good taste, experimentation, and imagination.

  • Crop, can you use for multiple images?

    If you are doing copy work, is there a way to save a crop and use it on multiple images as you might drag an adjusment layer to other images? thanks.

    kevin4545 wrote:
    this is best done in ACR?
    That's what I was going to suggest, actually. If you're working with a file format ACR can take (raw, DNG, JPEG, TIFF), ACR will definitely be the fastest way. You can select them all in ACR, apply a crop, and they all get it.
    Or you can crop one image in ACR, exit ACR and select the image in Bridge, and choose Edit > Develop Settings > Copy Camera Raw Settings. Then select any other images you want to crop the same way, choose Edit > Develop Settings > Paste Camera Raw Settings, and select only Crop as the setting to paste.
    Either way, you'll be done in 30 seconds, much faster than it would take in Photoshop.

  • Which tool do you use for load testing?

    Which tool do you use for load testing for J2EE application?

    hi,
    i use jmeter for without issues..
    first make sure that the system from where you are doing load testing is in the same lan(without firewall) to that of server. Here you are testing the capacity of server and not the network bandwith.
    So assuming very good network connection what is the servers performance level...
    If u have to decide which tool is decent enough to load testing,
    i would suggest go for jmeter. its reliable and i have used it without problems.
    Here is my quick tutorial for jemeter which i made for my teams reference.
    REFERENCE
         For Getting Started refer to any tutorial for Jmeter
         You can refer to introduction on

  • Which bag do you use for 14 inch wide screen?

    Which bag do you use for 14 inch wide screen?
    I got confused when searching for possible candidates. Almost all wide screen bags are designed for 15.4 inch. Few 14 inch bags are fit only for the normal 4:3 screen.
    Any advice from you are welcomed!
    Many thanks!

    Hello,
    Other brands you might want to look at are Brenthaven, Case Logic, Eagle Creek, EastPak, EZM, Jan Sport, Kensington, Swiss Army, Targus and Trager.  There is also an earlier message thread here in the forum discussing carrying options, and a quick search of the Internet found some messages here, here and here that you might find of interest.
    There really are lots of different solutions when it comes to carrying your ThinkPad, so it might be best to visit a few computer, electronics, office supply and sporting goods stores to find something you like and meets your needs (and budget).  If you do not have your ThinkPad to yet, consider either bringing  a tape measure or a piece of cardboard cut to the dimensions to "test" with bags.

  • Which Bag do you use for your Camera? What about the GadgetBag 300EG?

    Which Bag do you use for your Camera? What about the GadgetBag 300EG?

    I agree - it's all about preference.  I use the ThinkTank Retrospective 7.  I *love* ThinkTank's attention to detail...  everything from having a rain cover included with the bag, to having ingenius use of velcro (sp?) patches to enable you to "silence" the bag so it doesn't make the big "SCRATCH" sound when opening the bag during a quiet event, etc.
    My best advice would be to do your research (which you're clearly doing) and have a clear understanding of the return policy wherever you buy it, and then don't be afraid to return it if you get it and feel it doesn't meet your needs.  A restocking fee is a small price to pay to not be stuck with a bag that doesn't work for you.  And if for any reason you get it and can't return it, there's always eBay.

    I am using ERwin® Data Modeler r7.1 (7.1.1.1207). It supports most new features of Oracle 10g such as hash, list, composite hash, setting LOB storage properties etc.
    We just upgraded from version 4 recently. In the old version, I had to manually modify the generated scripts.
    ERWin r7 supports all Oracle 10g (Release 2) new features we need for our projects. It offers far more functionality and options than the old version. It supports all partition types in Oracle 10g: Range, Hash, List, Composite-Hash and Composite-LIST and offers more storage settings.
    Another nice new feature of ERWin r7 is that it offers purge option in the DROP TABLE statement. In Oracle 10g, the recycle bin contains all the dropped database objects until you permanently drop them with the PURGE option. Otherwise, you will see many funny looking objects like this: 'BIN$0+ktoVChEmXgNAAADiUEHQ==$0'.
    With the purge option, you don't need to purge the recycle bin after the forward engineering.

  • Calendar app in iPhone use relatively huge amount of cellular data

    I'm using a 500MB plan, so my cellular data is very limited. Each month I will check which app on my iPhone used most of the cellular usage, and the built-in Calendar always used the highest amount of cellular data.
    I already set the Calendar to sync to "Events 2 Weeks Back" only, and I installed Sunrise calendar and only use it to create new task, edit task, etc. So far Sunrise calendar is the only calendar app that directly access my iCloud calendar. So I can make a comparsion between the two.
    I reset the cellular statistics a week ago. Today, the usage of Calendar and Sunrise are as follows:
    Calendar: 23.9 MB
    Sunrise: 581 KB
    They are displaying the same amount of information, the only difference I think is Calendar use Push to keep updating itself, so it consumes this relatively huge amount of data. (>90MB each month!)
    I tried disable the cellular usage of Calendar in the past, but then I cannot see the most up-to-date information in the Notification Center. So at last I have to re-enable it again.
    Does anyone have similar problem? Is there any solution? Thank you!!!

    Hi Robert,
    Thank you for the comments but I somehow think we are miscommunicating.
    1) I have no problem backing up the phone locally (or to icloud if I wanted to)
    2) I have no problem turning on or off cellular data usage for any app on the phone
    3) I have no problem seeing what apps are enabled or how much cellular data they use
    My problem is the following
    APPLE's Notes app used 2.7 GIGABYTES of cellular data (before I disabled cellular data for this app) despite the fact I wasn't even using the app. I didn't change any setting for Notes, I didn't do anything with it except create one note on October 15. It would seem to me that this excessive usage is a bug or oversight in Apple's design of the app.
    The purpose of this post is to warn others of the potential issue and to see if this issue has been observed by anyone else and if there are any actual fixes. Disabling cellular data for the app is a work-around ... but will the problem begin again if cellular data is re-enabled?
    Your suggestion of erasing all content and settings and then restoring the phone from the backup sounds extreme but would it solve the specific problem of excessive cellular data usage and if so .. why?

  • How do you use the Multiple Item Information dialog box ???

    How do you use the Multiple Item Information dialog box ???
    Where are the instructions on how the information in the Multiple Item Information dialog box equates to ...
    1. The way iTunes sorts tracks and albums
    2. The reason to select a leading check box
    3. Why there are Option selections (Yes /No) and leading check boxes.
    4. Why some changes remain in the track info, but do not "take effect" in iTunes (Part of a compilation is an example)
    Looked in Help, Support, went to the local Genius bar for an hour, even arrainged a call from apple support ...
    Thanks

    As Christopher says, it's a compilation. Different tracks are by different artists.
    Setting the *Album Artist* field to *Various Artists* and setting *Part of a compilation* to Yes should be all that is required. Depending on your *Group compilations when browsing* setting ( I recommend On ) either should suffice but I suggest doing both.
    Based on your commentary, I selected all the "O Brother" tracks, and checked the boxes for everything line that was blank in the Info and the Sort panes. Only exceptions were the album name and the disc number 1 of 1 and the artwork. I blanked and checked anything else.
    That's not what I meant. When you select multiple tracks, only those values which +are already common+ to all tracks are displayed. Typically these will include Artist, though not with compilation albums, Album Artist, Album, No. of Tracks, Genre plus various sort fields. A blank value may indicate that different tracks have different values or it may be that the value is blank for all tracks. For the drop down values on the Options tab the value shown may not reflect the information in every tag. If values you expect to be common, such as Album Artist or the Album title are not displayed you can simply type these in and click OK. This will often be enough to group the album.
    If you place a checkmark against the blank boxes and apply changes then you will clear those fields so you should only do this if that is the effect you want. Putting a checkmark next to an empty (representing different values) *Track No.* box, for example, will just clear the all the track numbers which is very rarely useful.
    Adding then removing extra text is for a specific problem where despite all common values being identical across the tracks of the album iTunes seems to "remember" that it should see two albums. A typical example would be when an album originally listed as *Album CD1* & *Album CD2* is given disc numbers X of Y and then has the Album name changed to Album. I've seen iTunes merge all but one track into the new album, but insist on listing one remaining track separately, despite both albums having the same title. In this case I've found overtyping the album title again has no effect whereas changing it to AlbumX and then back to Album does what I was trying to achieve in the first place.
    Don't forget that even properly organsied albums may still break up if you don't chose an album-friendly view. Sorting on the track name or track number columns can be useful in some circumstances but in general I revert to Album by Artist when browsing through my library.
