Why is it impossible to see an appointment "time" in ical/maverick OS on macbook air?

Why is it impossible to see an appointment "time" in ical/maverick?  How could this be a good thing when looking at appointments at a glance in day view and you come to a screeching stop because the TIME is invisible, while in month view time isn't there at all!!
Thanks,
Vicki

This is actually a run-on sentence, so it's a little difficult to tell what you mean.
Time is visible in the appointments at a glance in day view.  I think you acknowledge this and agree.
Time is also visible in week view.  (You didn't mention week view.)
Time is not visible in month view.  You could see the time for a specific event by clicking on it.
Similarly, time is not visible in year view.
It makes sense that as you lose fidelity, you lose detail.

    What exactly happens? Does it launch at all? Have you tried rebooting?

    I suggest an appointment at an Apple store genius bar for a free evaluation.
    Perhaps an Apple Hardware Test may provide a clue:

  • Why can't I use my mute, volume, up or down buttons on my MacBook air?

    when  I try to use these buttons on the keyboard it flips to another page. I went into sound to see if I could fix this problem but nothing happens? Thanks for any advice.

    Sure, but if I have International League Pass shouldn't there be a way to tap into that? I mean, if I can watch it on my computer, why can't I conveniently watch it on the television sitting right next to it via Apple TV. Seems odd...

  • Never ever ever ever change my appointment times in iCal!

    I have read dozens of posts.  I have played with the settings and my behaviour until I am sick.
    In >30 years of using both paper and electronic diaries, I HAVE NEVER ONCE SET A TIME FOR ANY OTHER TIME ZONE APART FROM THE RELEVANT ONE FOR MY MEETING!!
    I just was late for another meeting having flown in from the UK to Prague.
    I am running MacOS 10.6.8 on a MacBook Pro
    Following recomendations from Apple itself, I turned off the hopelessly muddled and confusing 'Time Zone Support' (which never worked in practice as things that synch or when you add appts in a hurry you never see the dialog to set time zone for the specific event)
    1/ The 'automatic time change' did NOT change my time zone.  (and yes, I WAS on the internet)  I had to do this manually
    2/ In doing this manual change ONCE AGAIN ALL MY MEETINGS WERE CHANGED BY 1 HOUR!!
    Imagine my embarassment when my client shows up 1 hour 'early' literally catching me with my pants down (I was in the toilet) and unprepared. Joked with him that he was quite keen - he takes offense that he was spot on time.
    Put in a new option in Preferences: NEVER CHANGE TIME (or word it as "PRESERVE TIMES AS ENTERED")
    Turn it on by default
    Just fix this. Obviously the programmers behind this 'feature' (a pain in the backside for many years) never had the real world experience of travelling between time zones.
    Just fix this.  I cannot believe that the hundreds of complaints I have read about this asinine feature are groundless.
    Just fix this. You have exacerbated the problem a hundred-fold by encouraging us all to use our iCal as the root to which we synch our iPads, iPhones, and 3rd party calendar systems.
    Just fix this.

  • Why do I have an 8-hour default time in ical 5.0.2?

    I have upgraded to Lion and currently have iCal v 5.0.2. When I start a new event it shows as "All day." When I unclick this the default appointment length is 8 hours. How can I change the default settings to a 1- (or 2-) hour default time rather than all day or 8 hours?

  • I can't see all quick time files with Maverick

    I just installed Maverick OS to my computer and everything seemed OK until I tried to play my files in Quick Time Player 10.3 and also WMV (windows files) and most of them can't work.
    When I use Final Cut Pro X and try to export them I can see them with no problem.
    But the thing is I can't see them usung Finder. Some of them are fine.
    What can I do about this?
    I will appreciate some help

    I updated FlipMac and now my WMV files are fine.
    The files are working fine with no problem.
    The thing is I can't see them in finder right away like prior OS like 10.8 and before.
    I have now VLC and I can see them but this is kinda headache doing all this when I have to check and acompare many at the same time like I did before.... all was very fast. And using VLC it is soo slow.
    I also find out that opening my files with a old Quick Time Player Version, which is  7.6.9  they all work fine, I mean I can see them. But it is also very slow check 1 by one like using VLC.... same process.
    All I want is speed like it was before.
    Question: how can I do that?
    Some body know the solution?

  • Why are my holidays duplicated three or four times in iCal?

    On iCal, my US holidays are duplicated three or four times. I do not use MobileMe. I do have it synced with my iPhone but for some reason, only the US holidays are the ones that are duplicated on iCal on my desktop. Anyone know how to correct this?

    Your welcome, I found out the hard way myself.
    BTW please use the Legend at the right. This could help others in the future.

    We should start by actually identifying your Mac,
    Open Spotlight and type (without the quotes) "System Information" when it opens look for the model identifier (usually second line down) post it here.

  • Cannot see or edit time of events in iCal

    I cannot see or edit times in iCal any longer, only dates. This affects only one user, so I guess that there is a corrupted user-specific resource file somewhere that I could try renaming/deleting. Does anyone have any ideas?
    I believe that this condition was triggered by creating an iCal event from Mail.
    More details and a screenshot at http://forums.macrumors.com/showpost.php?p=8110912&postcount=10
    Thanks for any hints/suggestions.

    Eventually found in System Preferences -> International -> Formats that my region was set to "Custom". I have no idea how this happened - I certainly never set this directly through system preferences.
    I selected "United Kingdom" as my region, and the times showed up in iCal once again.

  • Impossible to see the lyrics on my iPad1. Will it be solved quickly?

    All the lyrics I need are in iTunes.
    I see them perfectly well on my Macintosh in iTunes and on my iPhone!
    Why is it now impossible to see them comfotably as before on the iPad?
    It was much nicer to work with it but it is now impossible.
    Who found a solution please?
    Apple?

    The Music app on iOS 5 on the iPad doesn't currently support lyrics - you can try leaving feedback for Apple and maybe it'll be re-instated in an update : http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html
    In the meantime you could also see if there are any third-party music apps that support lyrics.

  • Ipad Calendar Events Overlap and Almost Impossible to See

    On an iPad when some events overlap in the calendar they are nearly impossible to see.  There is an appointmetn at 9:00 but it shows as very "washed out" since the earlier appointment overlaps.  This shows the same on a newly setup iPad as well as an existing one but with iOS 7.1.1.  I did not blur out the second appointment and it is barely readable.  Anyone know how to fix?

    Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps BEFORE doing the reset.

  • IMac monitor (my parents), the greys are so light and faint, they are almost impossible to see.  especially in icalendar.  i've gone into system preferences and i think i've tried everything there and checked the forums.  no luck. any other suggestions?

    monitor too faint to read.  the greays on my monitor are so faint, they're almost impossible to see.  especially the numbers of the dates in ical. 
    i've gone to system preferences and contrast controls.  but no luck.  any other suggestions?  thank you

    Thank you.  I didn't know about the universal access adjustment.  All the way left is a little better, but still much fainter than on my own imac.  I'm not sure why apple uses grey typeface, but it's so faint on this imac monitor that it was difficult to find the "reply" option on this post.  Are there any other suggestions?  thank you
