Weird behaviour of Calendar

allanb · 12-30-2012, 05:39 AM

I have an iPad with iOS 6.0.1.

The Calendar will not allow me to switch the month display to March 2013. As soon as I tap the "March" button, the Calendar closes down and I'm taken back to the home screen. The same thing happens if I tap the right arrow when I'm in February, or the left arrow when I'm in April.

There's no problem with any other month, and there's also no problem with March 2012 or March 2014.

Unfortunately I don't know whether this is a new problem: it's possible that it's the first time I've ever tried to look at March 2013.

I'll be grateful for any suggestions.

All I can tell you is that it works fine here. Same iOS version.

Have you tried rebooting the iPad (that is, turning it off, and then back on again)?

Have you tried accessing the calendar via icloud.com? Maybe there's an event which is causing problems. Try deleting it, or them, if there's more than one.

I have a new IPad mini. As a new user to any iPad I thought it was something I was doing wrong but ended up putting google cal on instead. Exact same thing on the shipped cal - I can't turn pages to March without it closing the cal. Guess this is a design fault.

To my great surprise, March 2013 has now returned to iCal, apparently without any action on my part.

In a way, it's good to know that someone else has had the problem: I was beginning to wonder whether I might be suffering from hallucinations.
