Why are Happy birthday! events suddenly showing up on my iPad calendar?

My birthday is Tuesday, 10/30 and this morning I noticed that 122 all day events showed up on my iPad calendar for that day. The following information is contained in the details fields:
Event Name: Happy birthday!
Accepted by: Contacts Unknown
Notes: Happy birthday!
I created a new contact to see what information was published and this is the email address that shows up:
[email protected]ual
Checked my calendars on the MacBook, the MacPro and my iPhone - this problem is only happening on my iPad. I cannot delete these events which is very troubling.
Is anyone else having this problem? Before I call Apple I thought I'd check the community!
Thanks,
Angie

Hi guys,
I think I've found a solution. I went to https://www.google.com/calendar/iphoneselect and turned off the contacts birthday calendar from syncing. I then went into settings for my calendars and turned them all off as well as my contacts. I then checked the contacts had been deleted from the device and the calendar was also gone. I then closed both the calendar and contacts apps, and then turned the calendar and contacts back on in the settings app. Duplicates are now gone!
Hope it works for you as we'll. even if you don't show a birthday calendar go ahead and update the I formation at this link and it may still fix the problem. My friend did have the calendar but repeated birthdays were still gone once she updated at this link.

Why are some photo events missing when I synch my iPad with the new iMac?

Very confused user here.
I've just bought the new IMac, When I connected my iPad2 to the iMac and opened iPhoto on the iMac it asked to import photos. This proceeded, but when I checked it became clear that not all the events had been imported, even though iPhoto was saying that all the photos had been imported. There doesn't appear to be any reason why certain events have been missed - no difference in title, or date. How can I make sure all the photos are imported?

If the iPad works like the iPhone you can move photos into the Camera Roll as shown here:
Then from there it should sync to your Mac. That's how I got the screenshot above to my iMac and into this post.
If you have an iCloud account and Photo Stream enabled on both your iMac and iPad new photos to the Camera Roll will automatically be synced with your iMac and imported into iPhoto as long as you have the iPhoto/Photo Stream preferences set this way:
Of course this is assuming the iPad functions similarly to the iPhone in this regard and I should think it would.

Why are the only numbers that show up in my "Recents" on the iPhone 3G the calls that I've missed? I used to have all recent numbers that had called, on my old phone.

Why are the only numbers that show up in my "Recents" on the iPhone 3G the calls that I've missed? I used to have all recent numbers that had called, on my old phone. Is there some way to make it so that all my recent calls (in and out) show up on my phone?

At the top there's a toggle between "All" and "Missed". Click "All"

How do I keep my home calendar events from showing up in my work calendar (outlook)? I have my work e-mail on my phone and need to see the work calendar but I don't want personal appointments showing up on it, like drs. appointments, soccer games etc.

I want to keep my home and work calendars separate but be able to look at both on my phone. I don't want my personal appointments and events to show up on my work calendar, although it's fine if work events show up on my home calendar. When I delete a personal appointment from my work calendar in Outlook, it disappears from my home calendar on my phone. I just want it to disappear from my work calendar!. FYI, I have my work and personal e-mail accounts on my phone.
Thanks for any help/advice you can offer!

When you say "use the same purchasing apple ID for both to share books/music apps"- will this allow him to see what apps I download on his ipod (don't want)? will this allow me to continue to see what apps/games he gets on his ipod, on my phone (do want)? and do I set those changes on both devices?
To do this:
iPhone: Settings > iTunes & App Stores > Automatic Downloads:
     Music: ON
     Apps: ON
     Books: ON
iPod: Settings > iTunes & App Stores > Automatic Downloads:
     now you decide what he gets automatically.
He doesn't use game center, imessage, facetime or anything else (mainly just games, music and picture taking)- so does he really need his own apple id and email address? also- if he wants to start getting text messages, would i still have access to all of them if he has his own apple id? would i have access to them if he stays on my apple id?
Then he doesn't need an Apple ID.
Switch in
Settings > Messages >
     iMessage: OFF
     Send & Receive > Apple ID: > sign out
Settings > FaceTime > FaceTime: OFF

Why can't I set a second alert on my iPad calendar app?

Why can't I set a second alert on my iPad calendar app? I can set two alerts per event on the iPhone version, but the iPad version doesn't show the option that pops up after entering a first alert on the iPhone.

You are talking about the forward, back, mail and trash can icons in the Notes App - correct?
I've gone through restarting it and followed the instructions from the person last week.
Have you restarted the iPad - is that what you mean? Have you quit and then restarted the app? Quit the app, and restart the iPad. It's worth a try.
Double tap the home button and your recent apps will appear at the bottom. Hold down on the Notes app icon until it begins to wiggle. Then tap the minus sign to quit the app. Then tap the screen. Now restart the iPad.
Carolyn explained this above (restart) but here it is again....
Hold down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and slide to shut off. Hold down on the sleep button until the Apple logos appears then let go of the button and the iPad will restart. See if that helps.

Why are my iCal events not the same across views?

Help! I've been editing my iCal in Month view and everything looks great... but then I look at the day view (or week, whatever) and it's not the same. For example, in Month view for July 2 - I have one event scheduled from 8:30-noon. Then I look at the day view... and there are 8 different events! Most of them duplicates of different things that I had at one time or another deleted or changed. Why didn't the "clean up" work that I did in the month view carry over to day or week view? In fact the opposite, there are more things in day or week views than I ever created.
Recently upgraded to Lion from Snow Leopard. Recently changed from mobileme to iCloud. I only have iCal set to my iCloud account (no "on my mac" iCal calendar data). So the problem I see when editing on my MacBookPro is also seen when logged into iCloud directly via Safari and on my iPhone, iPad, etc. At first I thought this was an iCloud syncing error because I only noticed the difference on my phone (list view)... but when I went back to my MacBookPro I realized the problem exists there too... so doesn't seem to be a syncing error, but rather a "view" error... then the "problem" is mirrored everywhere.
I've tried "refresh" and "refresh all" from the Calendar drop down menu. This does nothing to help the problem... not that I really expected it would.
Thanks for any help you can provide. I'm going crazy!
Mac OS X 10.7.4; iCal 5.0.3

Fixed my own problem. Ultamately a user error but tied to the many threads about the month view defaulting events to "all day" vs. hourly increment. I knew that was the case, so when editing events from month view I made sure to add/change the time, but negected to look at "To" date. If my event was for an hour, simply adding the hour pushed the day to span across dates so the event was really 25 hours. Looked OK in the month view (just showed as a dot) but the day and week were all filled and casued the event to appear twice on the second day in list view (iPhone). In the case of repeat events, sometimes "To" date ended up as the end date for the repeat cycle... which really messed every thing up... I believe causing what looked like duplicates, etc.

Why are my desktop fonts not showing up as an option to use in Muse anymore?

Why are my desktop fonts are not showing up as an option to use in Muse anymore? I know that my desktop fonts are not web safe and will export as an image... But I would still like to have them as an option. Why did this start with the latest release? I cannot find anything in the preferences or menus to make them show up as an option. I am running OSX 10.9.4 and Muse 2014.0.1.30 CL785017. Please help!!!

Hello,
Could you please try the following:-
Reboot in safe mode by pressing the SHIFT key (it takes a while) so the OS clears the font cache.
Reboot then in normal mode and the fonts should show properly.
Regards,
Neha

Why are my desktop files not showing on the desktop

Why are the files in my desktop folder not showing on my desktop?

An add-on can put its icon on the bar automatically if it likes, but some add-ons do one of the following:
* Add an item to the Tools menu
* Add an item to the right-click menu (depending on the context)
* Put a button in the button palette so you can add it to a toolbar if you like (''to call up the button palette, use'' View > Toolbars > Customize ''or right-click a blank area after the address box on the Navigation Toolbar and choose Customize from the pop-up menu'')
Also, you might want to double-check that the add-on is enabled.
Tools > Add-ons > Extensions
If you have the orange Firefox button, it's Firefox > Add-ons > Extensions
Does that help? (If you have problems with a particular extension, you could mention which one it is for more specific comments.)

Why are my enhanced podcasts not showing urls?

I'm not sure where my problem lies, if it is with my software (user error) or with my host or what, but the podcasts I produce are inconsistent when being played back. When I make them in garageband, I use shortened urls, and the preview looks normal. When I download them to my phone (both directly and through iTunes on my mac) sometimes the urls show up and sometimes they don't. It isn't an issue with the particular podcasts, as I can download them multiple times with different results, and my friends have the same problems.
If anyone could point me in the right direction, I'd appreciate it. I export from garageband as .m4a, I host on podbean. I'm further confused by the fact that when the urls don't show on my iPhone/iPad, the pictures associated with them do.
Thanks in advance.

Why are all my contacts suddenly 2 hours earlier than they were entered. I just noticed this today April 24

Why are all my entries on Icloud 2 hours earlier than they were previously entered. I just noticed this today April 23? They do not match what is on my Ipad or on my imac. Looks like the clocks are not syncronised someplace.

Your post is fascinating because your post header says "today April 24" while your post body says "today April 23" So maybe that is related...
Anyway, make sure all your iCloud devices have Settings > General > Date & Time > Set Automatically = "On".
Also, in iCloud.com, open Calendar, go to Preferences (upper right) > Advanced > and check "Enable Time Zone Support".

How do I get my iPhone calendar events to show up on my Google calendar?

I have an iPhone 4s. When I add a calendar event on my Google calendar it shows up fine on my iPhone calendar. I can delete that event on my iPhone calendar and it deletes it on my Google calendar so I know there's a "link." BUT, when I add an item on my iPhone calendar it doesn't show up on my Google calendar. I've tried waiting 15 minutes (the refresh time for Fetch) , and refreshing the calendar page but no luck.
Help?

That response would work save one detail: This is my work phone so I get meetings and such added via corporate email, etc. Those go by default to my iPhone calendar so I was hoping there was a way to just sync everything that ends up on my iPhone calendar to my Google calendar.
Thanks for the reply.
