Re: iPhone calendar question

2012-08-02 Thread Paul Hopewell
Hi Sarah, 
The month calendar view does indeed work as you describe. However my problem is 
not what events are happening on 10 August but rather I have a dentist 
appointment sometime in mid August but cannot remember when. For this purpose 
the list view is ideal if it would start at a sensible date like today. 

I could use the search facility but entering dentist via the virtual keyboard 
is a bit tricky. 

I suppose I could request my iMac to automatically delete all events older than 
say 7 days (on Lion it was set to delete all events older than 30 days). 
However I cannot find this automatic delete option on Mountain Lion. Does 
anyone know where it is? It used to be under the advanced tab on Lion. 

Best regards

 Hello, 
 I am running the latest version of IOS on my iPHone 3GS. I use the list view

 I use iCloud to sync with my iMac calendar on Mountain Lion. I have my iMac 
 calendar options set to delete appointments older than 30 days. 
 
 My question is how can I display the Calendar list view starting at today's 
 date? This occasionaly happens automatically when I open the calendar app on 
 my iPhone but usually the calendar list view starts 30 days ago which makes 
 it tricky to view events for today and the following few days. 
 
 I see that there is a button at the bottom of the calendar display titled 
 today which I hoped would rest the list vview to start at today;today's 
 date. Alas that button does not usually do anything. 
 
 Any thoughts? I would rather not have my iMac automatically delete events 
 older than 30 days but that is the only way to get my iPhone calendar list 
 view tolerable. 
 
 Many thanks.

Hi Paul
This may help with your origimal question. have you tried using the list tab 
which just lists all your events down the centre of the screen? So you can 
swipe  right to hear each one read out, or just Drag a finger  down the screen 
and you will hear the word you're looking for.
Hope this helps.

iPhone calendar

2012-07-26 Thread Glenn
Hi All,
I am having problems entering a calendar event.  Every time I get so far 
into an entry, it closes the calendar, usually when I try to set it as an 
all day event.
Is there a way to set a calendar event by speaking to the phone?
Normally, I dislike talking to my phone for such things, but this is very 
frustrating.
I have an iPhone 4.
Thanks for any help.

2012-07-26 Thread Paula Hobley
Hi Glenn

How are you?  Have you by any chance a Mac with Mountain Lion on it?  One
way to get around this would be to enter the calendar event into the
Calendar in Mountain Lion by pressing Command with N and adding it as a
quick event, then it will automatically go to your phone.

Take care

Paula
