Re: mCalendar
 

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

But I have never had that error.

Re: mCalendar
 

i've installed mcalendar but when i try to start it, nothing starts. can anyone help me?

Re: mCalendar
 

try running mcalendar from a command prompt (terminal)

~ $ mcalendar


and see what output it gives.

Re: mCalendar
 

thank you.

Re: mCalendar
 

hmm, so I deleted the database, and it still got stuck at 60%, but running it from command line shoes its not actually stuck now. Its getting all of the events for calendars im subscribed too (but starting in december, 2009 onwards)

is this a new thing? that it downloads calendar's you're subscribed too?

edit: I just got rid of one of the calendars and it is workings fine now (and not downloading any of the other calendars either..)

btw, it was a 'remember the milk' calendar, which I never used, but just tried out for a while. So it's not a big deal that I had to remove it, but apparently it doenst play well with the syncing

Re: mCalendar
 

jwsnerd, what version of python2.5 do you have installed (you may need to be in red pill mode to find out). The function thats in the error is a normal one that should be included when importing the "gtk" library. The library must have imported, because the logic of the app checks that first and exits with an error if it fails. So for some reason, your tablet doesn't have access to that function.

pomonkey, that issue will be resolved when Khertan enables selecting which calendars to sync with, which I think he has said he is working on. Untill then, you just have to sync all of the calendars. You could create a secondary account, and share just the calendars you want to sync with that account, and then just sync that account instead of your main account with all of the other events.

Re: mCalendar
 

go to xterm then type: rm -rf m.PIM this will clear all DB hope i am right , it has been discussed in the thread, enjoy

Re: mCalendar
 

Anything new?

Re: mCalendar
 

Ack!
I just synced mCalendar with my GCal...Same Old 404 errors as before with no problems....

BUT now the HomeScreen App is either stuck on "refreshing" or is just a small gray/black oval.

mCalendar 0.4.6

homecalendar 0.2.6-1 (uninstalled and reinstalled - no change):confused:

Re: mCalendar
 

I've seen that problem!! (and meant to post something here about it)

I had, earlier, mentioned a problem with mCalendar where events with an ampersand (&) would not show up in the calendar. Khertan fixed that problem. I re-edited my event to replace 'and' with '&', and everything was fine... until the day before the event, when my homecalendar display looked like your screen captures, above -- I think the homecalendar app also needs to be modified to allow certain special characters in the event name/description. Once I changed my '&' back to 'and' in the event I had, it instantly started showing up as expected in homecalendar.

So, there's your troubleshooting hint, and a bug report/reminder for Khertan, all in one short post. :)

Re: mCalendar
 

@briand

Cool, Thanks! :) I had missed the "&" discussion as I had not used one in my GCal until recently... :o


Now for the next question:

Khertan, any word on why items in the homecalendar are out of order?

All day events 00:00 last , Repeating events First (Company store AM & PM)


TIA Snoshrk

Re: mCalendar
 

Any plans for a grid-type month view?? Please...?

Re: mCalendar
 

read some pages back, phutterman.

its planned iirc, but not until some other stuff have been taken care of first...

Re: mCalendar
 

i see. That's good to hear. Thanks! Sorry I didn't read back more thoroughly.

Re: mCalendar
 

yes the grid thing for both week and monthly views is going to be great!

Re: mCalendar
 

Is there a guide somewhere about how to sync the calendar with google? I've been trying to get my google calendar data to mCalendar, but it stays empty. I've entered my username & pass and synced. It says that it is synchronising, but nothing changes. Do I need to somehow select which calendars to sync, or what?

I guess there isn't an easier way to import ical files?

Re: mCalendar
 

Hi Snoshrk, what's the name of mac style dock taskbar in your picture? Looks nice.

-DX

Re: mCalendar

Re: mCalendar
 

@dxitt

tso --> Nailed it in one :D

The Bottom Bar IS Personal Launcher by fiferboy.

fiferboy's excellent apps

Re: mCalendar
 

You shouldn't need to do anything. If the progress bar goes through 10%, 20% etc. all the way through finish, then your events ought to show up. Right now, mcalendar is set up to download all the events that you have created or edited since Jan 1, 2008, from all of the calendars that you have setup for your account (including calendars shared with you). If your events were made prior to Jan 1, you can change the "Last Sync" Date in the settings to make it scan further back.

Re: mCalendar
 

Thanks for the info. How do you orientate person-launch bar horizontally?

Re: mCalendar
 

either drag it into shape by tap&hold on the lower right corner, or turn of resizeable layout and select rows in the drop down box.

Re: mCalendar
 

Hi everybody ...

It s a bit long but i want to inform you that i m still working on the next release of mCalendar ... :)

I m rewriting it from scratch :

Re: mCalendar
 

Can someone help me out?
i messed up and delete my LAST UPDATE information for mcalendar.

here is my error message:
time data did not match format: data=08/10/08 12:00 fmt=%Y-%m-%d %H:%M

Re: mCalendar
 

make the date "2008-10-29 09:30" (no quotes) for today at 9:30AM.

Re: mCalendar
 

Youre doing great progress as always! Looking forward to test the new version. Any thoughts on when you think you will have some kind of release? ;)

Re: mCalendar
 

Hi, there!
I've got a strange MCalendar GCal-sync problem that appeared after Daylight Savings Time: in MCalendar events that are non-repeating show up as an hour later than they should, and repeating events show up at the correct time. (GCal events all remain at the right time in Gcal.) Time zone is set the same way for both GCal and Maemo. If I untick "Daylight Savings Time Zone" in Maemo Date / Time setup, then my non-repeating events are at the correct time, and repeating events are an hour early. Strange behavior! Any ideas how I can fix this?
Best,
Jon

Re: mCalendar
 

I notice this happens to my mcalendar too! Must be a bug. Hope the author will take care of it soon.

Re: mCalendar
 

Hello,

Of course i'm taking care of it, and will be solved with the next version 0.5. Which is a complete rewrite, with better google sync management.

Re: mCalendar
 

Hey,
I've been trying to get mCal to work for a while and i still get the "incorrect usernam or password" error

Im running 0.4.6 btw

Tnx

BTW i have tried the deletion of the mPIM folder and it did not help

Re: mCalendar
 

Do you enter the "@gmail.com" as it not required ? Do you use a google account or a google hosted domain account ?

Re: mCalendar
 

Everything works now thank you

Re: mCalendar
 

Here is a test for a new UI of mCalendar, what do you think of it ? personnaly i don't find it really great.

Do you prefer the toolbar on the right or in bottom ? Color of this toolbar really need to be change.

(ps : week view is still in list, and new view will be done in few time).

Re: mCalendar
 

dont look to bad, imo :)

Re: mCalendar
 

I prefer toolbar on the bottom, fwiw.

Re: mCalendar
 

In fact me too ...

But i think that if i do thing in the right way it could be a prefs.

Re: mCalendar
 

On the side, definitely. Here's my reasoning. Why shrink the shorter side (height), causing fewer appointments visible, and causing a scrollbar on the side anyway? Most maemo apps (including MicroB) for some reason settle for a 1.5"x2" working area. :confused:

Nice monthly calendar view.

One other thought... Can you simplify appointment entries? For example, most of the time I enter all day, one-liner events. I don't need to see start/end time or detailed notes for things like "Bob & Lola's Anniversary" or "Johan on vacation". These things could possibly be hidden in a tab.

Re: mCalendar
 

It will be good to give the choice to the user by putting it in the prefs, i prefare on the buttom because on the left is the open apps if it on the rigth not enough room for displaying calender nice work congrats

Re: mCalendar
 

i think microb does it for ease of address input...

but yes, for pure button bars, i would say that a vertical one makes as much sense as a horizontal one...

oh, and on start time, maybe put in some defaults. if its the first of the day, start it at start of work day, and have a default length (half hour maybe?). the next added will then automatically resume from where the last one ends and so on...

Re: mCalendar
 

Great work dude. Other than the above mentioned time sync problem, everything works great... I'm actually starting to dig on the UI layout in .95 the more I use it. Considering the amount of space you have to work with, the pop up month view is just dandy.

Perhaps a date marker like a diagonal line or shading, to show what days have scheduled events, is all that is needed.

Edit: This morning I wanted to delete an item and I did so on Gcal via the web, it did not delete it on Mcal during sync.
