Why can't I edit some of my iPhone 4 iCal events?

Some of the events in the iPhone 4 version of my iCal calendar do not have an "edit" button or capability. Yet, others do. All events appear and can be edited on my May Air iCal and changes there appear on the iPhone 4 -- but there lack an edit button. I can't even delete these events on the iPhone 4. Can anyone help? (Running Lion and all software is up-to-date. on both the iPhone 4 and Mac Air.

The same thing happened to me. I was able to fix it by turning on the syncs on my phone by going to Settings, choosing Mail, Contacts, Calendars, then Accounts, then switching them to on.)
Hope that helps. Cheers.

  • Why can't I edit SOME pictures on the external hard drive in iPhoto?

    I have moved my iPhoto Library to an external drive. I can see all photos in the thumbnail, but there are several pictures that when I click on them to edit, the screen is black, while others show up. I'm confused.

    If in the middle of that black window is an exclamation point then iPhoto has lost link to the original file. If you're running a "managed" library (copy image file into the library when imported) try the two fixes below in order as needed:
    Fix #1
    Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys depressed and follow the instructions to rebuild the library. Select all options.
    Fix #2
    Rebuild the library using iPhoto Library Manager as follows:
    Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    1 -Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    2 -Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your User/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File->Rebuild Library menu option
    4 - In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    5 - Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be untouched for further attempts at fixing or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

  • Why can't I edit my signature under email settings.

    Why can't I edit my signature under email settings.  I want to unbold the "Sent from my iPhone" and it will only unbold it when it is in italics  I don't want it in italics.

    Hi Sssswm,
    If you'd like to edit the email signature that is appended to email which you send from your iPhone, specifically to change the text style, please see the information below.
    Select text. Tap the insertion point to display the selection options. Or double-tap a word to select it. Drag the grab points to select more or less text. In read-only documents, such as webpages, touch and hold to select a word.
    You can cut, copy, or paste over selected text. With some apps, you can also get bold, italic, or underlined text (tap B/I/U); get the definition of a word; or have iPhone suggest an alternative. Tap to see all the options.
    Edit text - iPhone
    Take care,
    Alex H.

  • Why can't I edit my own thread?

    Why can't I edit a thread that I started (all I want to do is to uncheck the "Mark this thread as a question")? I can edit my replies to the thread but not the first post.

    So I only have fifteen minutes to change it. Did not notice it on my last thread I started.

    Hi Rob,
    I can confirm what Craig has stated, and it was not just spelling mistakes.
    There were some folks going around updating their questions (for example when the requirement was counter-questioned) and others who deleted their question once they had the answer.
    The famous "Why 'x'", was answered with a "Why not 'x'"...
    Cheers,

  • Why can't I edit the Word doc I converted from a PDF?

    Why can't I edit the Word doc I converted from a PDF?
    Help! That is why I bought this software!

    Hi linda007,
    If you can't edit the file once it's converted to Word, it could be that the PDF was created from a scanned page, and then image text wasn't converted to searchable text. ExportPDF should perform Optical Character Recognition by default, but it can be disabled in Reader. Do you know whether OCR was disabled when you converted the page? If it wasn't, make sure that the correct language was selected for OCR. This option appears at the bottom of the ExportPDF panel in Reader, and in the Document Language (for Text Recognition) pop-up menu that appears after you select your file to convert in the ExportPDF online service.
    If everything seems to have been set correctly, and you still can edit the text, please try triple-clicking to select the text in Word. Did that do the trick?
    Best,
    Sara

  • Why can I not open some attached emailed pdf files?

    PLEASE HELP ME! I HAVE TO OPEN THESE FILES MY BUSINESS DEPENDS ON IT! why can I not open some attached pdf files and others are ok?

    PDF files are extremely reliable. You may have a software issue. I have the problem on 2 identical systems with the exact same specs. The problem occurs at the same exact interval. It may be a windows update. We have had to re-install software form the DVD in each instance. This fixes it for awhile and then it recoccurs. Adobe acts as if they have never heard of the problem...imagine that. I'm the only one with th problem.
    This is happens with CS6 volume lic product.
    If you dont own Adobe product it will be even more difficult to find and answer as the reader is used my so many people.
    We know we have the problem again when we double click opn a PDF and nothing happens. SOme have reported that reloading does not fix the problem.
    Wish I could help you. I am looking for answers to this issue right now and phone support is a 30 minute wait.
    Very frustrating.

  • Why can't I edit or delete Address Book "On My Mac" or sync with iCloud?

    Why can't I edit or delete Address Book cards on my Macs, now that I've migrated to iCloud?  I can edit/delete if I go to iCloud, but the changes don't sync with my Macs.  What's happening, and what's a solution?  Just wait for Apple to fix a bug?

    On your mac, if your look at the left panel of the Address Book, you'll find general categories of "iCloud" and possibly "On my mac" - if you have contacts in the latter, then they are only local to your mac, they are not shared with iCloud.  If you don't have an "iCloud" category, then your mac(s) is not set up of iCloud.  Go to system preferences and look in iCloud.  Is the mac signed into iCloud, are contacts turned on for syncing?

  • Why can't I view some videos on Internet sites?

    Why can't I view some videos on Some Internet sites?

    The iPad does not have Flash. Adobe does not make Flash for the iOS.So you either need a specific app, such as the YouTube app to view Flash video on the YouTube site, or you can get one of the very experimental Flash browsers for the iPad from the iTunes App Store.

  • Why can't i edit my project in imovie anymore??  (over 1 hr long) - is this a bug ?

    why can't i edit my project in imovie anymore??  (over 1 hr long) - is this a bug ?

    Hi
    There is a limiting factor that's easy to miss.
    • FREE SPACE on Start-Up (Mac OS) Hard Disk
    When this goes low then iMovie, Mac OS and all applications runs into problems. So to get a safe way to work (for me) I set a minimum that I try to never go lower than. (Sorry for strange sentence)
    I never let my Mac (Macintosh HD) go lower than 25GB free space. If it does - then I move away things to an external hard disk (always Mac OS Extended (hfs) formatted - as nothing else will do for VIDEO)
    Else - in iDVD Time is the limiting factor. (iMovie - I never run into any - my monster Vacation epos is >>6 hours)
    iDVD 08, 09 & 11 has three levels of qualities. (version 7.0.1, 7,0.4 & 7.1.1) and iDVD 6 has the two last ones
    • Professional Quality
    (movies + menus up to 120 min.) - BEST (but not always for short movies e.g. up to 45 minutes in total)
    • Best Performances
    (movies + menus less than 60 min.) - High quality on final DVD (Can be best for short movies)
    • High Quality (in iDVD08 or 09) / Best Quality (in iDVD6)
    (movies + menus up to 120 min.) - slightly lower quality than above
    Menu can take 15 minutes or even more - I use a very simple one with no audio or animation like ”Brushed Metal” in old Themes.
    About double on DL DVDs.
    Yours Bengt W
