Yosemite - strange behavior for all-day events in iCal

I have been using previous versions of MacOS with my corporate exchange server for quite a while with no issues. After the upgrade to Yosemite i have found an odd behavior with inserting all-day events into the exchange calendar. Same results on MacBook Pro and MacBook Air, both worked fine with Mavericks and now have this issue with Yosemite
My previous workflow was to double click in the upper bar in calendar, open an event in the all-day area, type in what I wanted to say, select the exchange calendar from the pull down (I have multiple calendars) and the event was done.
Now when I do this when I switch the event to the exchange calendar I get this error message:
If I select OK the event is then transformed to a 12:00-1:00 meeting and a note is added to the notes that the time zone isn't right
Note: the meeting does go into the calendar in Pacific time (my default) and I can edit the event back to an all-day and remove the junk from notes and it stores away like it should. But this is quite annoying
Any suggestions

I have the very same issue. I solved it once somehow but now it's back. I use Plaxo to sync between Outlook-iCal-iPhone and maybe that somehow has confused the phone. Let me know if you find any solutions. I will do the same.

Default alarm for all-day events

When I set up iCal, I used a default alarm at 11 pm for ALL-DAY events. I don't stay up that late anymore, and now I have to manually reset the alarm to a more sane time every time I enter an all-day event. How do I change the default to earlier? Note: This is not the same default as for regular timed events ... that one I can change in Preferences.

Well, I couldn't figure this one out, so I just moved the calendars back to my main machine, and published them to the web for sharing with my laptop. On my main machine they worked fine.
Can't figure out why it wouldn't work on the server. Maybe it'll change with Leopard's iCal server.

Section for All-Day events

At the top of my Day- or Week-view calendars, in the small space available for All-Day events, there's always a space 1 row long even if there is no event planned. If at least one day has an all-day event, then the entire week has what looks like 2 slots, the event being on one and then room for another, but if you add a second all day event... you get my point.
Is this just the way iCal looks or is my program having a minor issue?
(I always try to search before posting but didn't find anything quite the same..)
Thanks guys.

There wouldn't by chance be some sort of official hack to change this state of affairs?
I use iCal on an iBook, and my screen real estate is limited. If I could get rid of this additional row in the all-day events section, I would have more space to display my other events.
I would even be prepared to go back to iCal 1.5 just to get more screen space - but unfortunately its not supported to run in Mac OS 10.4 (is there any way to hack iCal 1.5 to run on 10.4? You see, I'm seriously annoyed by this little UI change. Have even toyed with the thought of trying Entourage...)
Thanks

Change Reminder Time for All Day Events

I have a simple question but I have not been able to find the answer anywhere including by searching this forum. On my iphone, the reminder for my all-day events pop up at 6:00 AM. I usually try to sleep until a little later and get annoyed every day whe these reminders wake me up. Can anyone tell me how to change the reminder time for all day events?

One thing that might help.
Find the event on the iphone.
Tap on the event, then tap edit.
Here you can edit the Alert for that event.
If it is a repeating event, it can be set to this event only or to all future events.
However, an alert always comes up before the event is supposed to start.
Hope this helps.

No Background Color for ALL DAY EVENTS

Is there a way to prevent the background color from All-Day-Events in iCal? I would prefer to print/view the calendar w/o the background colors.

All day events - synching ical with Symbian S60

I guess this must have come up before.....
I cannot find a way of synching all-day events on iCal with my E90. iSync will not sync iCal all-day events across to the E90, just seems to ignore them. I thought I'd be clever and enter all-days as memos on the E90. Fine when it syncs to iCal - they come across OK as all-days in iCal but, when I sync again, the memos get deleted from the E90. Most strange.

I have the same issue on all day events synced from Exchange. The items look fine in the day or month view.

All day event in iCal

I am trying to add an 'All day event' in iCal (have tried on the MacBook Pro and iPhone4) for the 7/10/11. This keeps saving over 2 days the 6/10 and 7/10, even if I change the date manually, after saving it reverts back to both days. Have done plenty of other all day events with no issues, not sure why this one is not working.... Any ideas?

Yes, Apple any help for this would be great. The only way I've come to work around is to use multiple events. So for a flight out of town would be one event, and the return another. I would create a third event then for the actual time out of town. There must be some way to easily fix this.

No all-day events in iCal

Hello everyone,
I am experiencing some kind of bug in my Mavericks 10.9.2 iCal, where is field for all-day events completely empty. So no birthday or other events.
Of course, the calendar account is checked and online, calendar is checked, birthdays are enabled....
I tryed to disable accounts and enable again, and some other things, but with no success.
Any idea how to fix that ?
Thank you,

OK, forget that. The iCal was some king of stacked. I deselected ical>view> unselect "show all day events" and closed the iCal, then opened that and select it again to make it work.

How do I control the order of all day events in iCal?

How do I control the order of all day events in iCal? Even if I painstakingly try to
re-order the events the way I want them, when they print, they are in a different order.
I have searched other forums and no one seems to have an answer to this. Has
anyone found the solution? Thanks!

I also have this issue, where the events in iCal change when viewing in print preview or printing. I even notice they will switch if I try to print again??!!! I am using different calendars to show different colours. and they are setup on iCloud not on my mac.
it is becomign frustrating when I print 2 months worth and ssome events are correct in order and alas some will change when I print again!
Can anyone help please?
thanks

All-day events in iCal become 2-day events on iPhone

Since I updated to 1.1.2, all my all-day events in iCal become 2-day events on the iPhone. Has anyone else had this problem? I can reset the end time on the iPhone, but I have lots of recurring monthly events and it would take forever to do this manually.

I have the very same issue. I solved it once somehow but now it's back. I use Plaxo to sync between Outlook-iCal-iPhone and maybe that somehow has confused the phone. Let me know if you find any solutions. I will do the same.

Can't add all-day events in iCal w/Lion

After Lion 10.7.1 upgrade, I can add an all-day event in iCal on my MacBook but not on my MacBook Air. On the Air an event added with no time just does not appear. On the Air an event added with a time appears, but editing the event and checking the "all-day" box causes the event to disappear.

>>Who'd have thought this was optional?
Again... S. Jobs apparently thinks its optional.
Devolution...like many things in Lion.

Wrap text for all-day events

I've seen this question floating around, unanswered, since 2005...
How can I get iCal to show the full text of an all-day event in Month View? There's lots of blank white space, but it seems that iCal never wraps the text of all-day events, and just cuts off the text that doesn't fit on one line.
Am I missing something? Is there any way to get Apple to implement something so basic?

I have the same question, but need to add one odd observation about my own experience...
When I enter new events, sometimes the text wraps to two lines and sometimes the text is cut off after one line. It appears to be about 50-50. I can find no explanation for this behavior anywhere nor any way to control it. Very strange.

Why is ical creating unwanted alerts for all-day events?

If anyone can point to what might be going wrong here I'd be grateful. This is becoming a daily irritant. I have a number of all-day events listed for most week days in my diary which help me to know what is happening that day with childcare for my son. I don't need alerts to be reminded of these - they are just notes I put to myself in adavnce that let me know how my day is configured. Now, I sync my ical from my home imac to my work imac, my macbook, my iphone and my ipad. On none of these devices do I have default alerts set. I never set any alerts for any of these 'events'. But then, at 9am the day before each one I get an alert. In fact, I get a 9am alert for any all-day event, regardless of whether I set an alert for then, or at all. As I say, I've checked all devices and the default alert a=on all is set to 'none'. Does anyone know why this is happening and how I stop it?

Thanks Malcolm.I'm afraid this issue started for me after updating to iOS6!

Multiple lines of event title and location failed to show for All Day event in SharePoint 2010 Calendar

I have a calendar with SPD workflow to display multiple lines for Title, Attendees, Location.
1. Created a custom columne "Breaklines" and set to "Multiple lines of text"
2. Set Monthly View to display the "Breaklines"
3. in SPD I created a workflow like this:
4. On the Calendar page, I used a javascript to remove the <br/>
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.10.2.min.js"
type="text/javascript"></script><script
type="text/javascript">
function updateCalendarWeekday()
   $('.ms-acal-title').each(function(){
    var str = $(this).html();
    str = str.replace(/</g,
"<");
    str = str.replace(/>/g,
">");
    $(this).html(str);
_spBodyOnLoadFunctionNames.push('calendarEventLinkIntercept');
// hook into the existing SharePoint calendar load function
function calendarEventLinkIntercept()
   var OldCalendarNotify4a
= SP.UI.ApplicationPages.CalendarNotify.$4a;
   SP.UI.ApplicationPages.CalendarNotify.$4a
= function ()
      OldCalendarNotify4a();
      updateCalendarWeekday();
}</script><style>
.ms-acal-item
                HEIGHT:
60px !important
.ms-acal-summary-itemrow
                HEIGHT:
85px !important
}</style>
Everything works fine, except that when the All Day event is checked, the display screwed like this:
I guess that when the event is All Day Event, the Start Time and End Time is not filled by the user (although they show in the form as 12:00 am -11:59PM), so the top line space is now used to display Title and Location. Since the Top Space for
Start and End Time is a single line, it displays everything on one line. Plus the script does not act on this space.
Does anyone know a fix for this problem?
Thanks for any tips!

Is there a way to modify the javescript so that it also works in the "start-end time" space?

No Email Alarm for All-Day Events

Hello, Everyone,
I've got a desktop and a laptop, and I've been syncing the iCal calendars on each for some time. However, this has resulted in one annoying thing - whenever an event comes up in iCal that I'd set an email alarm for, I would receive multiple alarms, one from each machine.
I thought I'd solve this problem by moving the calendars to my server (a headless Mini running 10.4.6 Server), and thus only get one email alarm. However, since I moved it, I'm getting no alarms.
I've run some tests, and confirmed that if I set up a test event at a specific time, I will get an email alarm for it. However, if the event is set up to be an all-day event, no alarm.
I've restarted the server, I've made sure the iCalScheduler is running...these calendars have worked for years, and now I'm perplexed. Any thoughts?
Cheers,
Martin

Well, I couldn't figure this one out, so I just moved the calendars back to my main machine, and published them to the web for sharing with my laptop. On my main machine they worked fine.
Can't figure out why it wouldn't work on the server. Maybe it'll change with Leopard's iCal server.
