Re: mCalendar
 
Khertan --

I just discovered, as I was adding an event to mCalendar on my tablet, a small bug...

If the description text contains an ampersand (&), then the displayed item (after being saved/applied) shows as blank. I had added my friends' wedding date as "Kent & Sharon's Wedding", and it was blank. I replaced the '&' with 'and', and the item then displayed as usual/expected.

I suspect that some special characters may need to be 'escaped'... but I haven't done any extensive testing to see if others besides the ampersand are affected.

Edit: I just tried to file this bug in the bug tracker, but cannot seem to get to it at this time. I don't know if that's an issue with my internet connection (from work), or whether there's a problem with the bug tracker itself...

I have perhaps a dum question but. Does mCalender alarm when the time comes for an event?

I've been receiving alarms, but I don't want to. Anyway to turn alarms off totally?

You mean my google calendar? Or mcal? Where's the global setting to turn all alarms off on mcal?

You have to delete /home/user/.mPIM directory.

(This is with latest version 0.4.0) Any idea what's wrong? Thanks!

I just got the same error in 0.4.0. What I did was delete a sync'ed event from my desktop in my browser, then went to my tablet and changed the start and end dates and times for the same event and then tried to sync again. That's when I got the error. Now no matter what I do, I get this large message box containing what appears to be the contents of a 404 error page from google.

It seems like mcalendar is assuming that the sync'ed event still exists on the google calendar account and is just trying to update it (with the new dates/times)? I'm not 100% certain though.

bobloadmire, the easiest way is to move to europe.. Sweden perhaps! :) Nobody here use the am/pm thing.
