There is a glitch with the calendar app. Do you have an all day appointment on April 1, 2013? if so, alter it, make it a few hours instead of all day adn March will return.


The calendar app has had issues with April 1 being the start of daylight savings time and the fact that 'all day' can mean anything from 23-25 hours, and this glitch causes March to disappear. Remove 'all day' from the equation, the calendar app is happy again and gives you back the month of March.

I understand the bug, and have updated 01 April 2013 events accordingly, but my iPad calendar app is stuck on the March 2013 month view (having 'scrolled' back from April resulting in a crash where it 'stayed').


Consequently, it won't launch, as seems like it can't get far enough started to synch and remove the all-day events that are fixed on iCloud, but not locally yet.


How can I reset the calendar data complete from outside the app, or force it to rebuild from the server?

Since you can't edit birthdays, a temp work around could be to simply remove them from your calendar until after april 1. Not perfect, but a way to get march back.

For events you can edit, just make them span a few hours, or even 23 hours, just not all day. That's apparently where the bug is, the program trying to figure out exactly when april 1st starts in the mess that is daylight savings time beginning (which means march 31 is 23 hours in some places, 24 in others)


computers are stupid, they get confused


There are rumors of a fix, but it's just that, rumors. The only sure fire way to 'fix' it right now is to tweak things yourself.
