iPhone 2.0 Spelling Error in Calendar

Question

iPhone 2.0 Spelling Error in Calendar

Did anyone notice in Calendar when applying the color coded categories the word Vacation is spelled wrong. Hard to believe a billion dollar company with lots of very smart people let this one get by. They incorrectly spelled it "Vacion".

BTW-I did download the new I Tunes last night as well as iPhone 2.0 for my 1st gen phone and within 20 minutes everything was working great. Sorry to hear all the horror stories but maybe it paid off to wait a few days till the frenzy died down. Just know the restore and firmware sync on the phone did take 15 of the 20 minutes so be patient.

I have no idea what you mean. The only colours on my calendar app are for the individual calendars themselves; one for the iPhone calendar and one for the one I've synced from outlook.

I think Apple had less to do with the spelling of Vacation than you think. Sometimes we call things like this "user error". 😉

I assume user error is referring to what I may have or not have done. So for the record if you have a 1st gen iPhone that's been updated with 2.0, go to calendar on the home screen, hit the + sign to add an event, after enteering what event info you might want, go to calender after re-accurance, click into the listing and color coding dots on a drop down menu. After selections like anniversary, birthday, holiday, see the word vacation. its mis-spelled on my phone, let me know if it's mis-spelled on yours.

That's your misspelling of "vacation" not Apple's. It imports your calendars from your ical. Mine, does not have "vacation" because I did not create a "vacion" calendar. Is that egg on your face?LOL

...no egg but an ample amount of apple sauce. Thanks for your hint, I did see MY error in Outlook and made the change. Humility is a learned virtue. Now I can leave for "vacation' a happy blogger.
