iPhone iOS 9 Calendar problem

I'm glad it worked for you. Sorry hasn't fixed my problem. Maybe different. I can tap a date sometimes and get a black dot, like I always did on iphone. Other times, I can't get a black dot on the date. It's not a change in functionality. It simply works sometimes and not other times. To get it to work, I must page forward months ahead and then go back to the month that wasn't showing the black dot. Worse, I bought two of SE phone on the same date in September 2016. One has the problem, the other doesn't. That sort of problem doesn't sound like software to me. I have most up to date OS. I smell hardware. Its almost like the memory is running out.

Amazing. All I want is to highlight a date with a black dot so I can change things and it simply doesn't work consistently. Too big a problem to be lightly called a "bug" in something so fundamental as a calendar. I posted here in case there are others like me.

Same problem... went in to apple... they blew it off.. gave me the well looks like you need to restore your phone as new again...

Ok since Im not the only one, its surely a bug

I can click the dates multiple times it sometimes opens a date if i press it a dozen times or so...

It seems it may be a change. If you are in the month view, if you double-tap the date, the individual date will come up. I've read a number of threads about this. If you would like to comment to Apple about it, use the feedback page, http://www.apple.com/feedback and click on the appropriate subject area.

Mine works the same way as it always did on iOS 8; just updated. No difference iPhone 6+

That is interesting. You can be in the month view, then tap on a single day and that day will open up? None of the people I know that have updated, including those that have written in this and other threads are seeing that behavior. It works the way I describe on my iPhone 5s and iPad Mini. Seems that it requires a double-tap to open a Day view from the Month view.

I'm having that same problem on my 5s. Sometimes it works, but most of the time it doesn't. Clearly a bug but it doesn't appear to have been addressed by Apple yet.

Thanks on the tip to double-tap. I was getting frustrated b/c single tap was not working, which is how it worked on IOS8.

I agree that is the way it used to work. It seems now that a double-tap is the way it works. I'm waiting to download a copy of the iOS 9 User Guide in pdf, but that seems to be delayed. I'm searching the online version now to see if it addresses information about this.

EDIT: Just finished that search, and it does not address the actual manner to deal with viewing day from the month view. Hopefully we will get additional information later.

Unfortunately, the double tap doesn't work for me either....

When viewing the calendar in a month view, double-tapping on a particular date will not take you to the day view? What troubleshooting have you tried?

Regarding this calendar issue, I have experienced the same thing, I would have to touch up to a dozen times to find the "spot" where an individual day would open from the month view (also on a 5s). It is very frustrating...

I went in just now to try the double-tap method and now single tapping is opening any day in any month without issue. I don't know what could have changed but hopefully it will be resolved soon.

I'm having the same problem and it looks like a bug.

After some experimentation, I was able to determine that, not only does a double tap work, but a single short, quick tap Works every time. The double tap works because The first of those two taps is a short, quick tap.

You are brilliant! Thank you, that's working for me now!

totally works as you suggested... Cool!

I hate what they have done with Calendar in IOS 9 - but when you look at the month, in order to get to the day just tap "today" and not the date on the month view. Dumb? Right. Also, I just discovered that you can still tap on the day in the month view to get that day to come up - but you have to tap quickly.
