Why does my ical show duplicate events?

Why does my ical keep creating duplicate events on multiple devices!!!!!  I have turned off icloud but it keeps getting worse!  I'm up to 5 entries for all birthdays.

Have you seen this ?

  • Why does my ical not keep events in my upcoming days?

  • Why does my ical keep dropping events.

    For a while now my ical has been changing the title of certain events to "new event".  Now it has started dropping events intermittently.  With my leaky memory I am not able to remember everything I put in.  Can anyone help?
    We run two imacs in our house and one ipad.  Our son, who is away at school also syncs via a MacPro and an ipad.  This is all done via Mobile me.
    Thank you in advance.

    Brad,
    Try changing System Preferences...>MobileMe>Sync>"Syncronize with MobileMe" to something other than "Automatically." I would recommend trying "Every Hour."

  • Why does my ical on my ipod touch not sync with my ical on my desktop if I put in an event on the ipod calendar?

    Why does my ical on my ipod touch not sync with my ical on my desktop imac ical?
    It will if I put it in on my desktop though.
    Please help,

    Probably because you did not tell the iPod to sync the calendar in iTunes.

    Mike,
    That means you have been invited to an event, or a shared calendar.

  • TS3999 why does the calendar delete past events?

    why does the calendar delete past events?

    Hello 123Giblet,
    The iPhone has a setting for how long a past event will appear in your calendar.  I found steps to help you change this setting in the iPhone User Guide:
    Calendar settings
    There are several settings in Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars that affect Calendar and your calendar accounts. These include:
    •Syncing of past events (future events are always synced)
    •Alert tone played for new meeting invitations
    •Calendar time zone support, to show dates and times using a different time zone
    When you tap on Sync, you will be given several options for how long you want past events to stay on your iPhone, and there is also an option to select All Events so that they remain on your calendar.  You can find this information on page 69 of the iPhone User Guide

    Thank you for posting in the Apple Support Communities.
    Best,

  • Put movies in itunes on one computer why does it not show up when i access itunes from other computers or ipad2?

    put movies in itunes on one computer why does it not show up when i access itunes from other computers or ipad2?

    i just purchased a file that had videos in it. i put them in the itunes library on my pc where i first downloaded them. i was able to transfer them to my other pc, a laptop, through my home network. i am now trying to get them on my mac pro desktop and my ipad2. my mac pro can see the other computers on my home network but i cannot get it to connect to them. i know the operating systems are different but was hoping i could transfer pictures and files from pc to mac this way. haven't been able to get it to work yet. the videos i am trying to get my mac to see came in a folder with both mac and pc versions. i thought if i got the videos i purchased into itunes that i would then be able to get them to my mac pro and my ipad2. i am new to mac/apple and have always been pc-centric so trying to marry it all has been difficult. i speak pc pretty well but am just learning apple. am i trying to do things that are not possible? i sure could use a knowledgable friendly soul to walk me through my issues of having pc and mac on the same network. i have been able to get all computers and ipad to print on my network. thanks.

    Why does Apple TV show me that is takes 19 hours to play a movie

    The time it takes to load is dependent on your network
    What is your current connection, use speedtest.net
    Make sure DNS is set to auto
    if on wifi try Ethernet

  • Why does my iPad show no sim when turning on cellular data?

    Why does my iPad show no sim when turning on cellular data?

    Check the right and left sides of your iPad for a small hole the size of a paper clip (remove your smart cover if you have one).  If you see this, then you have the wifi + cellular model.  If you do, use a paper clip to remove the sim tray (or the sim removal tool that came with your iPad if you have it) as shown in the image below. 
    If the tray has a sim card in it, push the sim tray back in to re-seat it in the side of the iPad, then turn it on to see if the error message re-appears.  If it re-appears, take it to a Verizon store and have them give you a new sim card.
    If you have a sim tray but it is empty, you'll need to go to a Verizon store to get a sim card for it.

  • Why does my library show no content even though ATV2 can see my library?

    Why does my library show no content even though ATV2 can see my library?

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

  • Why does the keyboard show up when i read a book in Kindle?

    why does the keyboard show up when i read a book in Kindle?
    it blocks about 1/4 of the page. but when i turn the ipad to horizontal it goes away.

    Try these basic things and see if the keyboard goes away for good.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
