Great video! I actually use Apple calendar to bridge the gap between my work calendar, which is kept in outlook and my personal calendar which I keep in Google Calendar. Apple calendar allows me to see them both in the same place so I can have a unified view. I am also attending graduate school so I can add in my calendar from Canvas LMS so that my assignments also show in one place.
This was really good and so useful. I use the Apple calendar and many of the tips you presented and also learned quite a few new ones as well! Thank you for creating this video! I look forward to learning more from your channel!
Hi Paul. Thank yo for these tips. Now, I know I can add locations to my appointments. However, it's give me weird/unrealistic travel duratiobns. I reckon this is caused by my location. However, where does Apple Calendar get my location from? Would appreciate your response.
Works great on a Mac, absolutely sucks on a iPad or iPhone. All you see is a dot for an event until you click on it. It needs to have a view like google calendar.
Great video! Quick question… if I share my Outlook/Exchange with Apple calendar to integrate my work appointments, can my company then view my personal appointments? In other words, are my personal appointments loaded into my Outlook calendar due to the integration? I want to use Apple Calendar, but I don’t want my peers seeing things like meditation times or doctor’s appointments, etc.
I bumped into your vid and I surprised your talk works for improving my English listening & understanding skills! Your speech is definitely easy to understand! I’ll use your vids as my listening training tool and, first and foremost, precious resources of Apple infos!
I can't accomplish getting shared calendars appearing on my iphone calendar. The shared calendar appears on my laptop, but not on my iphone calendar. I have confirmed that both parties' iclouds are enabled, and all other troubleshooting that I can find. Any suggestions?
Can Apple Calendar determine how many hours I worked if I put my work schedule in Apple Calendar? It is much easier for me because I want to figure out how many hours I work each week.
You could possibly calculate your working hours using the Shortcuts app on iOS but not using the calendar alone (unless you want to manually add up all your hours)
month view on Apple calendar is terrible, with no way to prioritise what is see; part of the reason I'm thinking of going old school and getting a paper calendar
I use the Apple calendar only to check my Google calendar. The ongoing issue I have, is Apple calendar keeps adding alerts to my events. I set an alert for "time of event", but I keep getting alerts after the event. I'll get about 3 more alerts, all with weird times like "2 hours, 3 minutes, 8 seconds after start. This has been an issue since I started using the calendar over a year ago. I cannot find an answer for this behavior. Do you have any suggestions? By the way, these alerts cannot be muted.
@@minor-co Good call. I had check Google before, but it was always after I had cleared the alerts. I do see them for last weeks alarms. I'll start looking that direction. Thanks!
Hi is there a way to fully view Apple calendar on Windows. Asking with reference to external Gmail calendars that are added to Apple calendar. My office calendar is added to my Apple calendar and while I can view it on my iPhone/iPad, it is not visible when I view Apple calendar on iCloud on a browser. Any workarounds? Tia.
The option+command+N didn't work for me so I am stuck making new categories as it just let me make new events. Can you help me on how to add new categories?
@@minor-co Is it stupid to say that is no such a thing on the top bar? I wish I could send you the screenshot, but there is nothing like that in the MacBook Air M2 calender. I wish if you could help me with that I am so stuck and I don't want to use any other calender.
This was so helpful... Thank you very much. After watching your video, I am now more productive and able to manage my time more effectively. Now i am able to finish my work on time and give time to my family and friends. Thanks to you and this video brother. Love from India. Keep making such wonderful content, You will reach 100K soon :)) Just subscribed to your channel and will also recommend this channel to my friends, family & colleagues
Many times Mac Calendar invitations don't go to outlook users. Like other Calendar programs, does this Mac Calendar place items in your sent email for the invitations being sent out? I never see them, how does the Calendar send out invites to non Mac OS email addresses? This has not been clear. Thanks
Thank you Paul was explained detail of this App that I always missed out or even forget about my recognition Day 😢. How bad it was. Hope to Learn more from you. Thank you for your video🎉
Paul, I,am trying to set up a Calendar, a schedule for our retirement community. We can have up 10 or more events per day. However I do not see a way to print the Calendar with all theses events showing. This community need hard copies! A typical event is 0930 - Pickle Ball. Also need to send calendar to a non-apple computer for printing. Any suggestions? Thank You. I am David.
why does my event box not stay colored? Its box has the color when created until I click away from it...then only has a color corresponding DOT next to the event.
Paul, how do you make categories for your Gmail account (Pipedrive, Paul, Appointments, etc.)? Category I make goes into Icloud or On My Mac and I can't drag it to Gmail account (calendar).
I don’t think this is possible I’m afraid. In your Calendar settings, you can set the default alert times but I’m not seeing an option to set a default alert to email you about events.
Great Video! Could you share how you have your, for example "Family" category share with your wife? I typically create one-off events with my wife, but I would love to maximize a category like you have to us to both share events. Thank you!
When u get an email invite for a diff time zone-how do u find out if u can attend b4 u set the event? No settings to show multiple times zones on a sidebar? Google Calendar offers 2 time zones but not more.
Normally when you receive an invite it shows up on your calendar but it'll be greyed out as you haven't accepted it yet. This should show in your local timezone. Make sure you have timezone support turned on.
I have attempted to get Google out of my Apple Calendar. Still I get emails from Google! I’ve even screened shared with Apple on my iMac and changed the settings to take them out of my Apple calendar. Have tried various attempts to change different settings
@@minor-co thank you so much for asking because I have tried every conceivable way that I can find in settings and going to Google Chrome and remove them from my calendar. They’re from my settings on my phone and on my computer and on every device that I have. The emails I get are from Google saying what the events are in my calendar and I don’t want them in my calendar. I didn’t set it up for them to be in my calendar this email as you start appearing. I have an apple do you know iPhone 13 and so I even went to the Apple store and they didn’t like what you’re talking about and trying to be so helpful and I’m very grateful, but by de-selecting Google calendar in settings and every place possible I still get emails from Google telling me what is on my calendar for the day. I don’t know how to get them out of my calendar. I’ve tried everything I know. ?????😵💫 I do use Google as my web browser because they’re basically the most prolific browser and I do have a Gmail account as my email. But I have gone and made sure that I don’t have the settings on my devices to allow Google/Gmail to have access to my calendar but yes they do. 🤷♀️ Thank you so very much for asking
@@minor-co so you know when you start to type in an appointment and it will auto fill from something you had previously scheduled? And take that title and all its elements, I.e. times reminders etc etc . I have zillions that start to auto fill and wanted to delete because most the times or other parts are not pertinent to what I’m trying to schedule.
@@minor-co I only get this option for one of my calendars called "to do", but other calendars I dont have this option. Do I need to delete those calendars and create a new one? its so weird
I still find it absurd that you can't select specific dates when setting up an event. As a nurse I typically work either 3 or 4 days a week, but not on any kind of set schedule. I may work MTW one week, MWR the next, and WRF after that. I would love to be able to create a "Work" event and being able to select the specific days for that month. Guess I just have to keep using 3rd party apps for that
Yes, we can do that. Or we can just use a better calendar. I, too find this really crazy that Apple can’t do this in 2023 when my Android phone calendar has had this function for at least 10 years. Also, the android calendar has the ability to easily set my own alert time. The Apple default alerts are insufficient.
As an windows user, i feel like i was brainwashed into it. Apple and macos is amazing. And i will switch to apple. Windows, ms, intel, adobe, etc. all are scam, guys. Dont fall into their trap.
Thank you so much for making this video! I was just looking for what apps to use but then realized apple calendar is enough, now I don't need to download anything
