iCal on iPad 2 crashes when selecting March 2013

Same problem here.

Solved by moving a full day apointment from April 1st to April 2nd...

My iPad 3 has had the same problems, but copying advice from above, I moved an appointment from April 1st to April 2nd, and March opens with no problem now. What I did notice that in the UK our daylight saving starts on March 31st, and I am guessing that is the problem, which is just the norm for apple and daylight saving times!

Same here but I found the problem. I have a weeknumbers calender, and when I deselect that one iCal works fine, so it seems not a problem in iCal but in this one www.markthisdate.com/calendar/Week_Numbers__international__10487.ics

As noted elsewhere on this forum (there are multiple threads on this) it's to do with All Day events on Monday 1st April. Nothing to do with alternative calendars. Simply change any all day event on Monday 1st April to a timed event and it will work.

Problem probably exacerbated because Monday 1st April is Easter Monday and therefore plenty of people adding to iCal as an all day event.

Something to do with Sunday 31st March having less hours with British Summertime (or Daylight savings time if your not from these shores).

A quirk which should be an issue but is.

Not an option when syncing to an external calender. New OS, same ****.

This is the same for me, IOS6 does not fix the problem. Apple please fix.

Change your calendar view to year, select April then change view to WEEK VIEW... You will then be able to go through March and April without it crashing..... ;-)

this solution is one of a this kind: If the frontdoor of your car is broken, step into the back, crowl forward sit behind the wheel and voila, you can drive...

Indeed which is no solution at all, Apple need to do better than this, much better; their calendars also copy forward all day events repeated for one or two days for 6 or 7 days.

This is not good for a coy of Apples apparent standing in the world of IT.

By the way you need to completly unsubscrbe from UK public holidays to make the temporary fix mentioned above work, it probably does have more to do with UK daylight saving time than anything else, one would have thought that the code requiring to be re-written is not that great.

This is amazing. My iPad crashed trying to make appointment for March 2013 in month view. I powered off the iPad thinking that something had gone awfully wrong. It still crashes. I search google .... and to my surprise find a huge amount of hits. And that the bug has been present since back in April? And that it has not been fixed in spite of completely new iCal versions and iOS upgrade being released? Wow.

Sigh .... will try to reach support somehow .....

I get same Issue.

is iCloud make this issue.

Try Disable iCloud calender on you iPad and then go to March 2013 on you calender and then it not crash. after that go back and enable iCloud calender again.

And then it work for me :-)

Have had this problem myself for several months and trawling through the posts came a mention of "Awesome Calendar" in the Apple Store.

Try it, it really is awesome.

Shame on you Apple for not fixing Ical!

Well I have only just discovered this problem - But I deleted the one "All day" entry on 1st April and problem has disappeared! I tried 0005 to 2355 and it still crashed. Next up was 0100 to 2300 and that worked!!!

Recently got an iPad 3, my first Apple product. Awaiting an iPhone 5, especially keen to be able to sync wirelessly between the two so I can get rid of my Blackberry. Therefore disappointed to have had the same experience with the calendar crashing in March 2013.

Worryingly, proof that Apple pay less attention to these issues than we would expect is that I have already been onto the feedback site to leave enhancement suggestions for various features/products and when prompted to register which iPad, iOS version etc. I was using, the pop up menus only went as far as iPad 2 and iOS 4 !!!

As previous commentators have requested, come on Apple, get onto it please !
