Q: How do you add your All-Day calendar events to Notification Center in iOS 7?

Now that iOS 7 has been relseased, my All-Day calendar events do not show up in Notification Center.  I can see my daily events, but things like Birthdays and other All-Day events do not show.  How do I fix this? Or is this something that Apple needs to fix in an update?

iPhone 5, iOS 7

    Same problem here...  I cant get same day appointments to show and the day before, all it says is ' you have one appointment scheduled for tomorrow', but not what it is.....

     

     

    Also, could this have something to do with 'alerts'?  I have noticed some of my mail entrys, be it entered on my Macbook Pro, ipad, or phone seem to have different alert status.  Some will have 'Alert before 9am' enabled and other will have 'none'.

    Hey all, for whats its worth - I was at the Apple Store today and was given this web address for submitting feedback to Apple. The Sales Associate said to submit your problem, questions, etc. and they usually get read and submitted furthur by an Apple team.  He also said the more folks that submit the same issue the more likely it will get attention...  I cant say that its entirley true but its worth a shot.

     

    www.apple.com/feedback         (then go to 'iPhone')

     

     

    I mentioned how calender events weren't showing in my Notifications (mostly 'All Day' events), and how even after software resets, toggeling functions and reinstalling todays iOS 7.0.2 update, nothing worked....  I also spoke with 3 techs at the Apple store and 1 in Austin at Tech Support, all of which couldnt figure it out.

     

    So please take a few minutes and go to the link and submit your issue.

    Thx,

    tbyrd

    Mine show up at the top of the calendar but prior to iOS7 if I had an all-day calendar event it would show up shaded gray for the entire day so that at a quick glance I could see I was out - why with the upgrade to 7 does it only show up at the top?  Is there an option for the entire calendar day to show the all day event?

    I found a work around.  If you enter your all day events in the reminders on iCloud as all day, they show up.  Actually what I did was to export my all day events to a CSV file and then imported them into my Tasks in Outlook.  I use Outlook on my Windows PC.  This is not a fix, just a work around

    There was no calendar in the Notification Center prior to iOS 7. This thread is specifically about how all-day events are displayed there.  If you're having an issue with the Calendar app, you may want to start your own thread. However, there aren't a lot of things you can change about the built in app. You may want to start looking for a different one.

     

    Best of luck.

    Can you please give me instructions on how to export all-day events to reminders on icloud?  I use outlook for Windows too.  Thank you!

    In Outlook, I exported my calendar to a CSV file.  If you have other events that are not All Day events, open the CSV file in Excel, delete those rows and resave the file.   In order to keep things separate, I create a second Reminder list (which is callled Task List on Outlook).  Once the file has all All Day events, import the file into your iCloud tasks. They now appear on the Notification Center after Today's events.

     

    Another option would be to go to your Reminder list and all the all day events, checking the option that it is an All Day event.

     

    I hope this helps.

    This was helpful.  I was able to create another set of reminders with my husbands daily work schedule and they now pop up in Notification Center but I couldn't see where to make them all day events.  Either way, this definitely helped.  Thank you!

    I am glad it helped.  Sorry about not seeing the All Day option.  Looking into it further, this option was only listed on those imported from my calendar.  Strange that it is not available on new reminders.

    Yup same here on IOS 7.0.2 Iphone 4s.  I too rely heavily on-day calendar events for business purposes. Please fix this.

    I also don't really like the way the revamped calendar works.  Previously, you could select a day and you'd get your events listed, now you select a day and you have to painstakingly scroll through 24 hours to get to your event, only "work around" I see is to hit the search button and search for nothing, then you get all your events listed.  Not ideal, but gets you by. 

    I thought apple were about making things simpler not more convoluted and painful?  Didn't any of the 1000's of tester highlight these flaws?  Maybe you need better testers eh?

     

    Don't mean to sound totally negative, lots of cool nice things about IOS7 I like too!

    cheers

    As I stated earlier.  The ALL DAY appeared ONLY when I imported all day data from my calendar into my tasks on Outlook.  Adding a reminder does NOT allow the ALL DAY option.

    I took it a step further and created a "home" calendar in iCloud with just my familys stuff and my husbands work schedule.  Some days it shows on the "All" tab in Notification Center.  It's hit or miss most days, but it gives me hope that someday it will work all the time!
