Year view in iCal

Hello, Is there any possibility to have a whole YEAR VIEW in iCal. I need this function and I'have to copy all my entries twice in a spreedsheet that's so boring what is the benefit to have our data in a computer if we cannot display it the way we need? Apple people, please!

Anybody listening?

Year View for iCal?!

Hi,
I work a lot with projects of a few weeks length and I would really like to be able to see these in a year view in iCal. Does anybody now an addon or tool which can do that for me?
So far I just printed the year, several month per page, and saved it as pdf - which is not ideal!
I am grateful for any hint!

Okay, I found out, that holding alt and clicking the arrows in iCal avoids the animation. But that is not what I'm looking for. I'm looking for a way to use the normal keyboard shortcut cmd + arrow keys for navigation, but without that time-consuming animation.
but currently it looks like there is no solution for this problem.
shame on you apple, for not giving me the option to disable the animation.
shame on you apple, for not providing cmd + alt + arrow keys for an alternative (navigate without animation).

How can I print just the year view in iCal?

Just trying to print the year view.

If you choose the "list" option in View on the print dialog box and uncheck everything at the bottom except "To do items" you may be able to get what you're looking for. It appears that the list includes all todos including those without due dates, so you might have to do something to assign due dates to all your todos and in iCal preferences restrict the visibility of todos outside of a certain date range. Unfortunately, you can't save any of this work into a standard report (at least not that I know of) - the print dialog in iCal starts from scratch every time you invoke it. Hope that helps at least some.

YEAR VIEW IN iCAL PLEASE!!!

I can't believe this, I finally get round to organizing myself and ical doesn't do a year view.
I have hunted online for some way to make this happen and have ended up making a pdf of a printout to be able to see it.
This can only be a temp solution, as my diary changes a lot and printing/pdf is not very elegant or efficient or even that easy to read quickly.
In my online search I have found posts requesting this as far back as 2003, and 6 years is to long to wait for something that surely must be such a simple solution.
I'm also stunned by the lack of plugin/widget/app solutions from 3rd party developers, I would definitely pay a a buck or 2 for something to let me do this well within ical,
And If I want it you can be sure there are at least another 100,000 who would also pay, maybe we could get the guy who wrote the ifart app for iphone to write it for us, about 2000 people a day were buying that at 99 cents a pop in the run up to christmas.
Apple should embarrassed by this.
If anyone knows the solution please post it.

YEAR VIEW with Lens (Zoom EFFECT)

Hi All,
does anyone know how to get a year view on iCal. It would be so nice to see the whole year on one page.
moreover would it be great to zoom with a lens (like in aperture) in a event.
Sincerly
Robert

there is unfortunately no year view available in ical at the moment.
may i suggest you send your suggestions to apple: http://www.apple.com/feedback/ical.html

Why can't I print out a year view calendar?

I was thrilled to find we now have a Year-View in iCal with OSX Lion, but now I find I cannot print it out. Every year, I like to print a few year-view calendars to keep in different places. Right now, I do not have any calendar program that will let me do that. What is so wrong with letting us print a year view calendar?

As a work around:
When displaying the year view, switch to full screen view and type Command(⌘)-Shift-3 to take a screen shot.
That will store a picture of the screen on your Desktop. Print the picture.

Yearly View and/or Viewing all To Do's

Are there widgets that will let me see a yearly view in iCal?
Also, is there a way to see if I have To Do items associated with an individual calendar before I delete it? I have calendars I would like to delete (such as Subscriptions > Birthdays, or "Me"@me.com > Mail To Do.
Thanks,
Jon

Sounds like this:
Update Server
Try:
- Powering off and then back on your router.
- iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
- Change the DNS to either Google's or Open DNS servers
Public DNS — Google Developers
OpenDNS IP Addresses
- For one user uninstalling/reinstalling iTunes resolved the problem
- Try on another computer/network
- Wait if it is an Apple problem

Year-at-a-glance View in iCal

Once again, I am filling out next year's year-at-a-glance wall calendar and wish I had this view in iCal. With today's screens, a year-at-a-glance view shouldn't be difficult to implement and would be very useful. My favorite layout has 12 rows (one for each month, January at the top) and blocks for each day running from left to right with weekends shaded. When is Apple going to improve iCal? or at least enable others to make such improvements?

ICal: only one colour in year view

Hi, my issue is that my different calendars (Red- college, green-work, blue-holidays), all appear as yellow when viewing iCal as year view. When viewing the calendar as weekly and monthly I can see which calendar is which, but in year view I can't. This means that I see a huge block of yellow and can't differentiate days I'm in class from days I'm on placement, or days I have exams from days I am on holidays.
Please help!!

Fufidus, I have the same gripe and I know what you're talking about.
I have about four different calendars (Work, Family, national holidays and a shared calendar 'Leave schedule'). Each has its own colour, and I would expect that when I look at my various events (some stretched out over weeks and months) I should be able to see that colour representing the respective category in the year view. This would make sense and allow me to differentiate between the different categories over the year planner view and therefore have a good overview for the year. This is important for me as I need to plan my schedule between work and family at least 6 months in advance and likewise with my colleague.
What actually happens instead, is that all those different calendar categories all show as one colour, being yellow highlights, which doesn't help at all. It's confusing, especially if I'm trying to collaborate with my colleague or show the year view to my wife. We cannot distinguish any of the events on the year view unless you click on that day. The four categories just merge as one colour on the year view. Spots where two events overlap become red.
A picture is a thousand words so here is a snapshot. Tell me if this would make any sense to you....
If you switch back to month view, then the category colours appear as they should.
I hope the iCal developers could take note of this issue if they have not already done so and perhaps improve on this in the next update. I would be most grateful. I don't really fancy having a third party app as I'd like to keep things simple and keep to one OS X app that can sync between devices.

In the year view, why is iCal coloring the boxes?

In the year view, why is iCal coloring the boxes and what does each color mean and how do we change it? It makes no sense or has any rhymn or reason according to what is in my calendar.

By default it is colored by the number of entries for each day. From white for no entries through yellow to orange and then red for the most entries.
Hope this helps.

Ical year view

hi !
i was wondering if someone has come up with a way of getting ical to show entire years. maybe a little help programm from the depths of the mac community ?
thanks !
pia

Anyone got any latest news update of this?
It makes absolutely no sense to me and makes year view poinless. I can't see multiple events.
I can't believe how awfully regressive iCal is to be honest. It's not the mainstay of what I do but every time I use it I end up saying, "why the **** won't it let me do that?" or "why have they done THAT?"
It's out of character with all the other Mac software that has always been useful and completely intuitive. ICal has been an orphan child for years and this Lion update has just papered over the cracks for me.
How about allowing scrolling from one month to the next? How about running the months of the year into each other, especially in year view? We don't make a big distinction between 30th June and 1st July in real life so why treat then as a separate page and block them out? It's so frustrating it makes me angry.
I suppose it's like the arguments I used to have with PC users years ago. Yes it does everything, but it's not much fun doing it and fun has always been the Mac way.
Come on Apple, look into this. It's not 3D modelling. It's a bloody calendar!

ICal year view colors

Is there a way to change the color of the calendar events when you are viewing the calendar in the Year View?
My wife and I both share each other's calendars. Her color is blue and mine is orange in the daily/weekly/monthly views it shows up with the corresponding colors. Yet, when I click on the year view I get this:
I can understand the days where we both have events listed being a different color, but it should at least display blue for the days that have events for her calendar and orange for mine but that's not the case. Any way to fix this? Or can someone explain to me why it shows these colors instead?

Bug? My events on the iPad iCal app aren't shown in the year view if they are more than two years in the future.

My events on the iPad iCal app aren't shown in the year view if they are more than two years in the future even though I can see them on the month, week and day view. Any suggestions on how to fix it? I've tried it all. I called the apple support and they checked on their iPads. They all did the same and they couldn't help me. They suggested trying this way. I'd like to be able to plan a few years ahead and the year view would make thing so easy!
Is this a bug?

Go to the Home screen and double click the Home button. That will reveal the row of recently used apps at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold on the app in question until it wiggles and displays a minus sign. Tap the minus sign to actually quit the app. Then tap anywhere on the screen above that bottom row to return the screen to normal. Then restart the app and see if it works normally.
Then reboot your iPad. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the iPad restart. See if that fixes your problem.

ICal yearly view?

Is it possible to get iCal to show a yearly view of events like a year planner?
This would be super useful if it is not currently possible (Apple feature request!).

No. If you want to ask Apple, use OS X Feedback.

ICal for iPad not showing events more than 2 years in future in Year view

As the subject describes, I can create an appointment more than 2 years into the future. On my Mac and iPhone I can see the event using any view. It is also visible in all views on my iPad, except for the year view. A feature?

Go to the Home screen and double click the Home button. That will reveal the row of recently used apps at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold on the app in question until it wiggles and displays a minus sign. Tap the minus sign to actually quit the app. Then tap anywhere on the screen above that bottom row to return the screen to normal. Then restart the app and see if it works normally.
