Hi
Supose I've created a weekly reoccuring event.
Now I wand to delet this event from a certain week only
When I try to do it all other events for other weeks are deleted as well
Is there any way to avoid it and delet the event for a specific week alone ?
many thanks
When you go to the day you want to delete the event from, when you press delete, there should be an option to 'delete single event only' or something like that -that should do the trick.

Well ...
when I try to delete it on the daily display still a window pops up saying - all the reoccuring events will be deleted as well

Tough to believe I'm the first to post about this, but I did my share of searching in this Rhodium forum with no luck, so here goes...
I use the Outlook calendar religiously, and have many "all day events" scheduled such as birthdays and anniversaries, etc. My standard reminder for these events takes place 2.5 days in advance, so that Outlook (and my phone) lets me know at noon 3 days prior to the event.
But now, with the Tilt 2 (stock AT&T ROM), not only do I get reminded per the Outlook setting, the phone issues another reminder at the moment the event occurs, meaning my phone lets me know at MIDNIGHT at the start of the day in question. Same happens for normal events too, mind you. For example, I have a meeting at 3pm, 30 minute reminder. The reminder pops up at 2:30pm, and I'll dismiss it, no worries. But at 3pm sharp, the phone lets me know once again that meeting is right now.
So bottom line, is there any way to prevent the secondary "time-of" notifications from being issued? I could use the sleep.

Great question. I have the same problem but no answer for you unfortunately.
I had a probem like that long ago on another WM PDA.
I used a program called PMClean to clean up the notification database.
I do NOT know if that will help and do NOT know if it is even compatable with the newer OSs.

Appreciate the suggestion, but I don't think that'll do it. It's not a case of orphaned reminders in the event db or notification queue, it's by design that the reminders go off at "game time" in addition to their user-defined reminder. Thanks anyway.
Anyone else have an idea? Thanks,

Did you try turning off the reminders sound in Sounds and Notifications?

I don't think the OP wants to turn off ALL reminder notifications. He just wants to silence the midnight reminder for All Day events in Outlook.

This.
The Outlook reminders are behaving normally, displaying at their proscribed lead times for events for which I have defined a reminder. However, and regardless of whether an Outlook reminder is set for an event, the phone reminds you secondarily at the time of said event. It is this second reminder that I wish to eliminate. Unfortunately, the phone's notification management system does not discriminate between the two types. Silencing reminders will silence ALL reminders.
Terrible oversight on the part of the designers.

Thanks, Warlock. They're experiencing the same problem or a variant thereof, the variant being that they were relying on the default reminder lead-time of 18 hours, hence the reminder going off at 6am the morning prior to an all-day event.
The solution proposed in there is very heavy handed, and would require the redefinition of every all-day event in my calendar to an appointment-based event. Not exactly elegent, but I guess some are willing to do this.
Funny, my HTC/Cingular 3125 on WinMo 5 didn't have this problem... but hey, you can't stop progress, right? Even if it's in the wrong direction, evidently.
This is BS.
I've been trying to search for this, but can't find a cause/solution
I'm having a BIG problem with this that is seriously starting to irritate me.
Basically, I'm getting random contacts coming up with reminders (at 12 midnight, of course) as:
"Person's Birthday"
"Person's Anniversary"
I do not use HTC Sense or any MS product to track people's bdays or anniversaries. I have never set this. On top of that, the day is always wrong. It's like the phone is just inadvertently setting a date for a person's bday and anniversary for no apparent reason.
Of course, I can't delete this in Outlook or OWA... I have to go into the phone and edit the contact. I've sampled contacts at random and the only correlation is that people it happens to are those on my home domain. However (and I can't remember for sure), I think there may have been one person that the same thing came up on that did not have an email account on my home domain.
Has anyone seen this? Why is it happening? How can I get it to stop? I don't want to go through each and everyone one of my contacts on my phone. That would take hours...
i've noticed once you go into view a contact and scroll down to the birthday section, it automatically fills in the current date...even if the birthdate is prefilled...it can be very annoying indeed...

But these are people who I have not gone into their contacts from the phone on. This is simply after synching with Outlook. I don't see any metadata that sticks around (like with the HTC Favorites and such in the "notes" section in Outlook).
Unless it happened a while back (a year ago, if the reminder popped up today) and it got automatically added to my calendar.
This is a known problem with all-day events. It only happens when you sync with MS Outlook 2007. Syncing with earlier versions is okay (i.e. OL 2000 and OL 2003). MS has stated that they aren't gonna fix it. The same thing usually happens with other built-in all-day events (with the notable exception of bonafied national holidays, which are okay).
Days like Mother's day, Father's day, St. Patrick's day, etcetera are fubar. They usually appear one day in advance of the real thing.
As mentioned, bonafied national holidays are okay (i.e. Christmas, New Years day, Thanksgiving day, etc).
Most people use a workaround by making the recurring event one hour long rather than an "all-day" event.

EDIT:
HTC mail widget does not refresh the email list when a new email is received. The email application itself needs to be opened in order to refresh the email list.
I know some of them are either well known or maybe not 100% HTC's fault but I just want to let them know (or remind them) that these problems still exist.
Otherwise they won't fix anything without proper feedback.
I might have forgotten some of the issues so if someone has a problem and my Desire does suffer from it I can add it to my list.
When listening to the FM radio and a text message comes in, the radio is muted to allow the alert sound to play but the radio then remains muted (even if closed down and restarted). Only a soft reset fixes problem.
News widget not updating automatically.
I will try to reproduce the FM radio problem. If it really behaves this way I will add it to the list.
The HTC News widget will be added as well - I can confirm this already.
Thanks for the input so far. I am still compiling the list so feel free to add some more issues.
Is there much point considering we will be getting FroYo in 13 days?

Will we? So far I haven't heard anything official about Froyo on Desire. It can take several months until HTC decides to release it.
Until then I would like to have these issues resolved as they are quite annoying and in some cases just plain stupid.
I know some of them may be irrelevant or not so important for others but for a device of such caliber I expected better and more reliable functionality.
And I would like to let HTC know about it...
Have you read this:

You are posting a duplicated post, and the best you can do is add your problems to the other post since is sticky and have been here for a very long time now!
But if you want to send these "bugs" to HTC i'm with you - be sure to also add the ones that are on the post i referred since there are many more...
What about the pink screen ?:

I would like to know why HTC made so phones with sense can't connect to some bluetooth-devices f.ex. wii motes.
Whay don't HTC Come take a look at the XDA Forums thread.... If they took a look at all the problems that people are posting here, then there would be plenty of updates to come

Hi, there is/are xda threads about that already, which personally I am experiencing too; shut down takes 10-15 mins or even longer. Don't know if any app/s cause this matter or a bug in Desire, but as said this is a common concern.

* some contacts which are connected with one or more facebook accounts and/or gmail contacts change their names randomly (e.g. i set a contact to use FB name and next time i get there it's using email address)
* when I receive an sms from a web gateway, e.g. from vodafone, in the messaging app the phone puts in a thread with a facebook account which has no phone number (a blank one, created by the phone itself and that I can't seem to be able to delete)
* alarm doesn't ring if phone is off
hey man why don't you tell them to make an option to save the images taken by camera as dates instead of image# (number)
i copy my images into folders and everytime i take new images i need to rename them before moving them along or i will have filename conflict because my camera everytime starts from the same numbers...if the name was according to date they would be sorted as i want them and no problem moving them around too.
low res contact pics... a fix would be great
So its really doesn't matter how but I have now every contact on my phone 3 times.
So I want to know if there's a way to delete everyone from my phone at one time and not each on individual.

delete the "Contacts" Cache under Settings - Applications - All, will delete any contact as far as I know. Did it last week accidentially when I wanted to clean the contacts stored on the phone because I am only using Google Contact Sync now.
thank you
I was looking for this thing, I recovered my contacts from a .vcf file and this resulted in lot of duplicates on my contacts.
Thanks buddy!
I am not sure this is a note 2 specific issue but I never saw it on my previous HTC one x.
I have my Facebook calendar syncing with my note 2 and there is an odd event in there that moves to the current day. Is For the biggest party ever and does not have any of my friends listed on it.
I have disabled all the old app apps from the pc interface yet it is still there.
Any ideas folks?

I have the exact same problem. Havent found a solution yet
Sorted it!
DOH!
On my PC, I had 'show declined events' unticked, so the event wasnt showing in the desktop version of the site.
So, I went to Events (on the left hand side), the cog icon next to 'Today', settings and ticked the 'show declined events'. Then the event should show in the desktop cal. Delete from there (cross on the right of the event) and then sync your android!
Happy days
