Why are phone numbers popping up in iCal as an event

Recently, both my wife and I, in each of our Calendar apps on our Mac, have seen an event show up that is just a phone number of someone in our contacts list. Neither of these events was added to the Calendar by us. Anybody know where that could be coming from?

Do you have your iPhoto's Photo Stream preference pane set to import the Photo Stream photos?
If it is then each new set of Photo Stream photos will be imported into their own Event.
If it is then check the sort order in the Events mode to make sure the latest Events are displayed at the top, i.e. View ➙ Sort ➙ By Date ➙ Descending.

  • Re: Why are there numbers not showing up on my verizon online call and texts log?

    I am having the same problem with texts not appearing on my online text log and have also noticed a huge increase in data since my two sons have had their iPhone 5s.  I have the iPhone 4.  Two problems here
    iPhone users DO appear.  In the posted questions and response below, you indicate that if we are all using iPhones then we are not using the Verizon network but using data.  HOW DO I STOP THIS DATA USAGE AND RETURN TO USING THE NETWORK?  I can't afford the data charges that I am getting.. HELP!!  and Thank you.

    If you are all using iPhones, then it's likely the texts are going through iMessages and therefore use data.  Since the texts are not using the Verizon network, but the app, they do not show up in the logs.  The app is not specifically blocking the texted numbers from showing up, but the information comes through Verizon as data usage, not numbers texted.   

        Sparkyjames81,
    Lets figure out just where those texts are going! There are many apps that can be downloaded from the Play Store for Android phones that will allow messages to be sent over the internet, and therefore they are not actually text messages and will not show up in our records. Even Facebook has their own messaging app available that does this.
    If you have an iPhone, they come with a service called iMessage that allows for messages to other Apple devices be sent via the internet, and this will also not show up on our records. These are all ways to bypass our actual texting services, and since these messages are not being sent as texts they do not show up on our records.

  • Why are there numbers not showing up on my verizon online call and texts log?

    << Discussion  moved from All Things Community to Apple for better exposure >>
    Why are there numbers not showing up on my call and texts log when i look this up online at verizon? There is one number that my daughter texts and calls a lot i found from her phone log but not one time does it show when i look this up on the Verizon wireless call log???  We all have iphones is there an application or something that can block certain calls from showing up? It clearly has texts on her phone from this number why would it not be on the call log?

    Thank you for your reply.
    However, wouldn't an iMessage show up different than a text? It looks just like every other text on her phone.  We all have iphones in this house and they always show up as texts on  the call log but this one number seems to be blocked somehow from showing up on the text log. And there are texts from weeks ago and it's from an actual number not computer or any weird/odd code and yet it never comes across on the text log when i look it up. 
    If you are correct and it's coming across as iMessage is there a way for me to block texts coming across this way so they all show up on the text log?

  • Why do phone numbers disappear in Address and IPhone Contacts?

    I've noticed that my wife's phone numbers get cancelled out of the Address Book and IPhone Contacts after a sync. I have only noticed my wife's phone numbers missing. Don't know if others numbers are missing too. Her name and email address and notes stay. Only the phone numbers get deleted.

    Check your address book on your computer to make sure everything is in order first, then go into iTunes and choose the box under the sync options for your iPhone that "Replaces" all the information on your iPhone with that of your PC in the category of the address book. See if that helps.

  • Why are the dates so light in iCal 5.0 (can't read!)

    I can't even read them unless I'm a few inches from monitor! Did lots of calibration too. iCal previous versions were fine. iCal is now pretty much useless, please darken, bold, englarge (anything!) the date numbers in an update ASAP, or allow users to edit this.

    I couldn't agree more. I've search for a solution for this, but couldn't find one. I can't believe there isn't an option to change the colors of the calendar numbers - there is on many second party calendars that you can purchase.

  • Why are my numbers in image size and layers acting chaotic.

    Photoshop CS3ext........When I go to size an image and try to adjust the size, the numbers take off on their own with out me even trying to adjust. Also in layers, all the slider bars, the numbers go crazy, up and down without me doing anything

    What operating system are you using?
    I'd start by resetting the photoshop preferences.

  • Are phone numbers 10 digits or 11? Do I need to record a preceding 1 (when area code is diff than mine)?

    When putting in new contacts, do I need to enter a "1" before the 10 digit phone number, or does iPhone know that a 1 needs to dialed before an area code?

    No. Not in the US. I believe the last systems in the US that still require dialing a 1 are land lines, and I'm not even sure they "require" it any more. Lots of PBXs used in businesses still require them because no one has seen fit to update them.

  • Why are my numbered lists changing formats?

    We upgraded from RH7 to RH9. Now all the numbered lists in drop-downs are messed up. For example, the look fine in the WYSIWYG view:
    But when generated, this is the result:
    The CSS reads as follows:
    LI.P-DropDownTextSteps {
    font-size: 8pt;
    font-family: Arial, sans-serif;
    list-style-type: lower-alpha;
    color: #af2305;
    In some cases, even the sans-serif font changes to a serif font and the size of the numbers changes. I have tried everything I can think of. I have spent countless hours and am really baffled.

    It has to be something so obvious, but I'm missing it.
    My OL tag is as follows:
    ol {
    font-family: Arial, sans-serif;
    font-size: 8 pt;
    font-style: normal;
    The result is below. For reference, the text is 8 pt.
    Below is how the CSS defines these numbers. There is another style where the list-style-type: lower-alpha does not work.
    ol {
    font-family: Arial, sans-serif;
    font-size: 8 pt;
    font-style: normal;
    P.NumberList {
    font-family: Arial, sans-serif;
    margin-top: 0pt;
    margin-bottom: 10pt;
    line-height: 11pt;
    font-size: 8pt;
    margin-right: 0.5in;
    margin-left: 0.5in;
    LI.P-NumberList {
    font-family: Arial, sans-serif;
    line-height: 11pt;
    font-size: 8pt;
    list-style-type: decimal;

  • HT2513 why are the holidays not on my iCal?  Is there a way to add holidays without doing it manually?

    Is there a way to add holidays to iCal without doing it manually?

    bandmomma,
    Click on this link: https://p13-calendars.icloud.com/holiday/US_en.ics and it will download a file named US_en.ics to your downloads folder.
    Double-click on the file and you will be offered the opportunity to add a calendar to iCal. Just be sure to create a "New Calendar." Don't import into an existing calendar.

  • Why are step numbers larger than text font?

    I just upgraded from RH7 to RH9, I find that when I generate Webhelp, the autonumbers in steps are larger than the font used in the text. This only shows up in the generated output, not the source. Bulleted lists, on the other hand, look fine. Bullet size is commensurate with text font size.

    Thanks again, William.  I think that is a good suggestion. However, for some reason, the problem seems to have corrected itself. Several webhelp generations produced the anomoly, so it wasn't just a quirk of one compile. In fact, I think I saw this when using the trial version a month or so ago. Anyway, the only thing I did that might have affected this change is that I changed style sheets to the default for on compile and then switched back to my custom style sheet. Now I am generating ordered lists with the correct font size.
    If the problem appears again, the first thing I'll do is try your latest suggestion.
    thanks again.

  • Why are some US Holidays duplicating in iCal?

    Some holidays are okay but some are duplicated on my iPod Touch 5th Gen Calendar. There's only one Christmas on 2/25/2014, and only one New Year's Day on 1/1/2015, BUT there are 2 MLK days on January 19th. There's only one Groundhog Day on February 2nd (Thank goodness!), and one Lincoln's Birthday (2/12), BUT there are 2 Washington's Birthdays (2/16/2015), 2 Daylight Saving Time Begins (3/8/2015) .... one St. Patrick's Day ... Easter twice on 4/5/2015... and so on....
    I've sync'd to my iMac and the US Holidays appear only once each on my desktop.

    My Calendar options are "From My Mac" and "Other", because I disabled iCloud. If I turn off US Holidays in "Other" but leave US Holidays in "From My Mac" on, all the holidays disappear. If I turn off US Holidays in "from My Mac" and leave US Holidays on in "Other", the holidays remain, and the problem of duplicates is resolved. This is, in a word, weird - but thank you.

  • Why won't Lenovo refund my money? Why are they ignoring me?

    I ordered recovery media on the 30th of July and I never received them. I am pretty sure they wrote the address wrong. They took long amounts of time to reply to my messages about not recieving the media and I ended up installing Windows 7 myself and then all the necessary software and drivers. I made it clear to them in 2 messages that they were far too late and that I didn't want the recovery media anymore and I wanted a refund instead, but they ignored both messages completely and sent me a message saying that they were going to ship it free of charge. I don't want it. I made this very clear.
    Also, I can't believe the nerve of them saying 'free'. No, I paid €37, and I didn't get what I want and will not get what I want, because I paid for it to be shipped in 3-5 days like the website says, not nearly a month later. Getting it nearly a month later is a completely different service that I never paid for. I have therefore not gotten and cannot get what I paid for so I want a refund. Why are they ignoring my messages? I sent yet another message yesterday and got no reply. That is 3 messages they have ignored now.

  • Why are the Cell Phone numbers that show up on my statement not the numbers I am Texting to?

    This has to do with texting only.  Lately I have noticed that a lot of the cell phone numbers we are texting to and from do not show up on the statement.  What shows up is a series of random numbers.  Why is this happening??? 

    Re Text messaging.  I have noticed that a lot of the phone numbers are not phone numbers but just a random set of numbers.  0000265060, 0032665115, 0000032665, 0032665114.  These are people my son is texting to and receiving texts from.  Does this mean the person has a blocked phone number???
