Re: [apple-iphone] Deleting Contacts with Birthdays

 

I kind of have similar problems in that I have so many of the same birthday on the same day I can't turn off some of them without turning off other calendar entries. 

Cheers,

Hello All,

I've always kept all my birthdays updated in my Contact list.  I love the way it syncs with the Calendar, and alerts me when a birthday is coming up.
Last week I ran into a problem.  One of my friends birthday was off by a day.  I went into Contacts and changed the birthday to the next day, the correct day.  Low and behold I now had two birthdays for that friend showing on my calendar.  The wrong one and the right one.

I couldn't find a way to delete the wrong birthday, so I thought I would delete the contact, make sure the birthday didn't show anymore, and then re-enter the contact.  I deleted the contact and waited…..and waited….two days.  Both birthdays were still there.

So, I called Apple.  Just to test they had me add a TEST contact with just a birthday in the info.  It put the TEST birthday on the calendar.  When I deleted the TEST contact, the birthday remained.

So, Apple wrote up a ticket on it.  Seems they were having a big meeting that day, and many of the co-workers decided to see if they had the same issues with their Calendar.  Guess what - they did!  Someone actually added like 20 contacts to test - and ended up with 20 birthdays on the calendar that they couldn't get rid of.

So, I shared my account with Apple, and they're working on it.  In the meantime, I wondered if anyone else has noticed this issue.  Apple will be calling me tomorrow with an update and I thought I could tell them of any others that were having the issue.

Thanks,
Janet
