US Holidays (Apple)

Contributed by Anonymous on September 11, 2002 @ 11:30PM

Apple has a released a calendar that contains a set of major US holidays. This should make up for the fact that the initial release of iCal does not include any holidays, a standard part of other calendar software. Definitely recommended.

problems
Posted by Anonymous on February 1, 2003 @ 10:29PM
Does anyone else have problems with this calendar? Everything is great in ical, but syncs wrong to my palm. And repeats wrong- it says thanksgiving is on a friday next year.
And, it has daylight savings twice on one day....

US Holidays - Palm sync problems
Posted by elansford on April 5, 2003 @ 10:42PM
This calendar doesn't sync right on my Palm either (i705), but when I create my own repeating holidays in iCal they sync fine. I don't know what the problem is, but I'm using my own holiday list for now.

Try this calendar!

A lot of people prefer the iCalShare US Holidays calendar because it syncs to Palm properly.

here is your answer

the palm cannot create recurring events based on DAY of week it recurrs. For example, thanksgiving, mother's day, father's day, etc.

here's what I have done:
I use an ical share us holidays calendar for VIEWING on my mac, but do not sync it with my palm. for the palm, I use holidates (available on versiontracker) which puts all holidays from any faith into the palm by YEAR (vs recurring event).

Not Palm's fault

Uhm, that is not correct. PalmOS's calendar definitely does the ability to recur events based on the day of the week (first tuesday of the month, last thursday of November, etc.)

Why Apple's US Calendar doesn't have the recurring events set correctly, I don't know, but Palm isn't the reason for it (or shouldn't be anyway).

WRONG CALENDAR -- STILL
Posted by Anonymous on July 20, 2005 @ 2:59PM
2 months after being noted, the link for this calendar is still incorrect

Indeed, Wrong, but....
Posted by Anonymous on July 31, 2005 @ 2:43PM
It is wrong still, but just go to Apple's website then all is fine. Link is given in the "Source" field.

Please explain what you mean.

What do you mean by "Go to Apple's website then all is fine. Link is given in the 'Source' field"? These directions are not at all clear to a new user. Thanks in advance for your patience.

Get The Correct Calendar
Posted by Anonymous on August 19, 2005 @ 1:22PM
Hi Folks,

The comments are right, as of 8-19-2005, the downloadable calendar is not the right one.

You can get the real one on a Unix type machine with this command.

curl http://homepage.mac.com/ical/.calendars/US32Holidays.ics > US32Holidays.ics

It should all be on one line pasted into a terminal session. You will need curl installed.

Otherwise you could email me and I will send it out to you.

Peace...

Daylight savings time 2007
Posted by Anonymous on September 19, 2006 @ 8:07PM
DST will begin on March 11, 2007, and end on Nov 4, 2007 under the new law. The US Holiday calendar needs to be updated.

Past the DST change and still no correction made to the calendar? Anyone monitoring this board? Otherwise, how do we make corrections?

Hi,
Could someone please change the phrase "Daylight Savings Time" to "Daylight Saving Time" (no "s").

Thank you
