Why can't I create all day events on my phone in calendar anymore?

I used to be able to create all day events in calendar on my iphone 3 but now I can only do this on the computer.

I have that problem too, every since 1.1.3 update this is been a problem , I thought it will be fix with the new update 1.1.4, it still the same, why won't they fix it. what the point of having ringtones, if you can't keep them in the phone. I'm so upset, when is apple going to fix this.

Easier way to create All-Day Events?

Creating an All-Day Event seems a little cumbersome to me and I was wondering if I was missing something. Is there a way to create an All-Day Event from scratch, meaning keyboard command/menu item? The only way I can find is to create a timed event, then mark it an All-Day Event with an extra step. I know you can click inside the Event section of the day in Week view, but if the day you are working on has the most All-Day entries, there is no place to click.
There is a command for New Event. Why not All-Day Event? I am sure I missing something, but I have searched the Help menus and support groups and cannot find a way to do it.
Thanks,
whardy7

Yes, I have. That is quite obvious. But, what do you do when there is already one there? That one takes up the empty space for double-clicking. If a different day has 2 events, you get lucky. In that case, there is empty space because the All-Day Events box grows to accommodate the highest number of All-Day Events for that given week.
Let me ask my question again. Once the All-Day Events box is full (which is dependent on the day with the most events - could be 1 event, 2 events, etc.), how do you add an All-Day Event? It seems there is no way. You have to create a timed event, then convert it. If your timed area is already full of events, that can be really tricky.
I hope that is clearer.

Unable to create all-day events or see old ones

I can create an all-day event but on ical but then it disapears from the desktop but shows up on ipad and iphone through icloud.

I opening a ticket on this as well, but I thought someone here might have a quick insight. It was brought to my attention by a user today, that if you create an all day calendar event in Calendar Express or UWC, it simply fails to appear in the calendar view. Searching for it you can find the event, but it won't show up in your week or day view, and won't affect you availability, even if that option was selected when creating the event.
The user feels this started last week. We did apply a point patch, 125816-12 on 2/17/2009, though that same patch was applied in test and I don't see the problem there. The internal Sun IT systems hit the very same issue last year (bug #6709380 - "All day events not showing for all the users in Sedge Calendar"). Restarting the calendar server (front-end and back-end) fixed the problem in that case.
Unfortunately we were never able to track down the root cause of this intermittent problem (not for a lack of trying mind you) -- the internal systems are now running CS6.3 and have not hit the problem since.
One thing I can suggest however is upgrading the back-end to the same revision as the front-end. With calendar server it is best to keep the back-end and front-end at the same revision.

I can only see 5 "All Day Events" in Day View.....

.... then I need to scroll down. Is there a way to 'expand' the All Day Events area so they are all visiable without scrolling? Thank you!

What IOS are you using?
With IOS7:
Settings > Notification Center > Calendar Dy View: ON
then scroll down to INCLUDE section
      Tap Calendar
          ALERT STYLE: Alert
          Calendar Alert > choose a sound here
          Show in Notification Center: ON
          Include > 5 items
          Show in Lock Screen: ON

All-Day Events Don't Appear in Calendar of Today Theme on Verizon 8330 Curve

I have a new Verizon 8330 Curve synchronized with my Outlook desktop calendar.
Using the BB Today Theme, only those calendar events lasting less than one day -- one hour, 15 minutes, etc. -- appear under the calendar on the home screen. No all-day events appear on the home screen.
The Today theme apparently does not recognize all-day events.
This is not acceptable. I have plenty of all-day events in the calendar that ought to be appearing on the home screen, alongside 15-minute events, when they're coming up next.
The Verizon tech people are totally perplexed by this, saying they've not heard of such an issue. They think there may be a problem with the Curve device, and they're sending me a new one.
However, I've seen a fair amount of discussion online concerning this quirk, so it seems like there's a bona fide synchronization problem between the Blackberry calendar/theme and Outlook as it pertains to all-day events.
Could somebody from Blackberry please weigh in with a definitive solution? I can't be the only guy in America who care about the fact that birthdays, anniversaries, etc. are not appearing on the BB home screen under the Today theme.

I take it then you don't have a memory problem. Just to clarify, your events on the calendar are fine, it's just the display
on the home screen where they disappear?
Have you tried a battery pull to reset all options? Pill the battery from the phone while it is ON, leave it out for about a
minute and replace. Leave the system completly reboot 1-2 minutes and see if the problem continues. This is a common fix on these forums.

Why can't I create a photo ablum from my phone?

Am I missing something? Or is it really not possible to create a photo album without a third party application? I find this annoying because it seems kind of idiotic to me that such an expensive piece of hardware is completely unable to sort photos into simple folders/albums from the phone.

That's the way it is. Tell Apple your feelings:

How can I create a new event without it automatically being an all-day event?

When I create a new event in iCal, it automatically creates an all-day event. (By create, i mean double-clicking in the month view.) Is there any way to change it back to hourly when you create an event, like in Snow Leopard? Although this is easy to get around, it's just annoying as I rarely create all day events.

I was really frustrated by this change in Lion as I prefer to use the month view and I hate the way it defaults to an all day event. So I was very pleased to find this solution in the Mac OS X Hints. Simply type "Dinner at 6 pm" and it enters "Dinner" at 6 pm for one hour. If you want anything other than an hour, put "6 - 8 pm" (or whatever period you want. Brilliant. Just wish Apple figured out a way to tell me that without having to search the communities here for an answer.
Thanks Ferd II.

How can I change the reminder time of an all day event?

How can I make an all day event remind me the evening before. The only reminder options are 9:00 the day of (which is too late) or 9:00 the day before (which gives you a whole day to forget about it). Why can I not select when I want a reminder? I have tried both alert tab in the event itself, and the default alert setting under settings/mail, contacts, calendars/default alert times.

THis is what I do, and it works for me.....I create two entries. Yes, it is extra work, but it works. The first one is the all-day event. I set that to remind me the day before and two days before.
Then the second entry I set a time on the day, and in the Title Box, I put "reminder about "insert date here". Then I set that to remind me according to hour(s) or minutes before.
IF I want a reminder inconsistent with those, I simply set the start date/time for the actual hour I want to be reminded, even if it is say "11:00pm the night before" when it goes off, I just reset it using the roll thing to the next date/time that I want it to go off.
I am a newbie and still have my old-fashioned paper planner, fully filled out, but find the calendar feature of the iPhone so absolutely useful. As well as the notes. Mainly when I am out and about. I used to tote my book around, now I just enter it on my phone, make myself a note, and then enter the info in my book later on. Paperless society, I doubt that'll happen, but technological devices sure fit in your pocket more easily...
BTw- have you noticed that if you put in a birthday of a contact in Contacts, it will show up in your calendar with a little present icon?
(= Have a happy day! =)

Issue: all day events arent shown in year view

Hi,
the normal behavior would indicate an event in bold in the year view. but this only happens on days where normal events (no all day events) have been set up.
i cross checked it with a 2012 client. working as expected. all day events show up in the year view.
excerpt from the manual:
Code:
Changing How All-Day Events Are Displayed
You can change the way that all day events are accepted into your calendar by using the Options menu.
1. Click Tools > Options, double-click Calendar, then click the General tab.
2. In the Accept Options area, click the drop-down menu located beneath Accept All-Day-Events I send to myself as, then choose the option you want.
3. Click OK.
sry, but i dont see how i can change the way how all day events are displayed.
is there still a need to copy the view files to the groupwise server?
thx

The setting you quote is actually to determine how all-day events that you
create for yourself are handled (for any future event you create). By default,
all-day events have a display of "free" (as opposed to "busy" or "tentative" or
"out of office"). If your calendar is "free", then there is no bolded
indication that you have something scheduled in the year view.
If you look at an all day even in your calendar, you will see a box under
recurrence that says either "free/busy/out of office/tentative". In order for
an all day event (or any event really) to bold the calendar number, this value
cannot be "free".
There is no need to copy views to the Post Office any longer. Views are in a
fixed location on the server (/opt/novell/groupwise/agents/data) and the POA
always has access to them.

ICal duplicating All Day events.

I sync my iPhone via USB (not iCloud) with my Mac.
Every now and then if I go through my historical iCal entries, I've noticed that quite a few All Day Events have replicated itself. Some twice whilst others can be replicated up to ten times or more.
This raises the need to indulge in a 'new hobby' of scanning iCal regularly to remove the duplicates manually. In spite of this, iCal persists to replicate some All Day events.
There doesn't appear to be a definite pattern to its replication because it replicates All Day events from more than one Calendar and does so on every other All Day event resulting in what appears to be a randomised replication.
I have no plugins or third party apps which integrate to iCal. For all intents and purposes (to my knowledge) my iCal is stock standard.
Does anyone know what causes this and how to stop it once and for all?
Thanks in advance!!

Try opening isync from your applications folder.
When isync opens, open the isync preferences.
In the isync preferences, click the button to reset sync history.
Once the sync history is reset, quit isync and try syncing the iphone again.
If this does not work, go into the entourage preferences and stop entourage from syncing with ical.
Export all events from ical and clear out any calendars.
Now create a new event in ical and try syncing just that event to the iphone.
If that event syncs ok, go back into the entourage preferences and enable syncing with ical again.
Now try syncing with the iphone.
Hope this helps.

Outlook all day events bug

Some of my all-day events (like birthdays) synced over but would not show up on list view if there were other all-day events on the same day. When I edited the entry, I noticed the schedule was, on a Feb 12 for example, from Feb 12 to Feb 11 (yes, backwards). I changed the 11 to 12, made sure the all-day switch was on, and voila! My all-day even co-existed nicely with other all-day events.
It only did that in 3-4 of 15 all-day events. Just in case anyone runs into this.

Ditto - another one for the pile. Using Exchange Server 2007 and iPhone 4.1.
Additionally, if I create an all-day appointment on the iPhone that spans two days (typically Sat & Sun) and invite another party, when the invitation is accepted the appointment gets screwed up on the iPhone, depending on which view you're looking at. Here's the use case:
1) Create all-day event starting 27 Nov ending 28 Nov, invite somebody.
2) Invite is accepted, look at appointment on iPhone.
Month view: 27 Nov event shows as 00:00, 28 Nov is "all-day". Nothing on 29 Nov.
Day view: 27 & 28 Nov blocked out fully
List view: Event only shows as 00:00 on 27 Nov, nothing on 28 or 29.
Lastly, when you open the appointment and look at the detail, you see that it now runs from 00:00 on 27 Nov to 00:00 on 29 Nov. For a two day all-day event you created on the same device minutes earlier.
Come on Apple! I switched to the iPhone from Windows Mobile because of your slick UI and great choice of apps, and even forgave you the lack of task and category support. But if you can't even get my appointments right I'll think twice before placing my order for that MacBook Pro I've been ******* after.

LG Extravert - Verizon Mobile Email - Google Calendar - All Day Events showing on wrong day

I have an LG Extravert. I installed and setup the Verizon Mobile Email application. I added my gmail account. I successfully pulls in my gmail calendar - BUT any of the events that as "All Day" events in google end up displaying on the wrong day on the LG Extravert. If I drill into the event on the phone - it displays start and end times for the event. Why does it do anything with time for an all day event? and if it does (for some reason) still use times - why are the times off? The timezone setup on my phone and google accounts all match.
Please Advise...

I am using the features of the Mobile Email application... I couldn't find a way with the Extravert to integrate directly with the calendar application.
If a create an all day event on the phone... it looks ok in google... but when the phone alerts me of the event... it says the Start Time is 1:00 AM. It seems like the Mobile Email Applications calendaring is not able to correctly handle All Day events.

Ordering Repeating All-Day Events on the calendar

Is it possible to order a list of all-day events that are repeating on multiple days of a calendar?

If you have iCloud calendars set up on your iPhone, you should have several iCloud calendars. I have Calendar, Work, Home. When you create an all day even put it in one of the calendars. For instance, i would put it in the Calendar calendar. You can select the calendar when entering the event by tapping Calendar label. You can then hide the all day events by tapping the Calendars button located top left on screen (portrait mode), then tap the name of the calendar you used to uncheck. When click done, your all day events will be hidden. Note you will have to rehide the calendar after adding a new all day event.

All day events sync with Outlook

I have no issues with sync my iPhone with Outlook throught iTunes. Only one.
When I create all day event on my iPhone Calendar and then syncing it with Outlook 2003 my event has shifted time zone at Outlook (with "clock" marks). It looks like I changed my time-zone at PC.
But another events (not all day) have appropriate time (iPhone=Outlook).
Anybody helps or has ideas?

I had the same thing, I believe it is a bug with the old version of iTunes, update that and try again. I don't know if you use Mobileme to sync your calenders, but this also need updating to new version if you do.

All-day events sometimes don't sync from iPod to Mac using Exchange Server

I have an iPod touch (1st or 2nd generation, not sure) which syncs with my MacBook via ActiveExchange and the company's exchange server.
I have been noticing that sometimes when I create all-day events on the iPod they don't show up in my Entourage-calendar. Even if I change their dates on the iPod or change them from all-day to a specific time. Nothing.
I already switched off time zone support or what's it called although all time zones are on the same city.
Any thoughts are highly appreciated. (And no, to be honest I don't think that it's a exchange-server-problem.)
