So work has provided me with a brand new iPad, and the calendar is formatted in a way I despise, but I can’t find any way to change settings. Can anyone advise? I’m neither technically incompetent, nor am I unfamiliar with Macs, but if there is a way to change the settings, it is either really well hidden, or staring me in the face and I just can’t see it.

Simply put, the week begins on Monday, and I flipping HATE when calendars do that!

I should add that it’s an iPad 2 running OS 5.1.1.

But the week does begin on Monday?

I thought this was something important like 12/31/2012

Looks like if you change the regional setting to US you can have sunday as the start day

Been using iPhone and then iPad calendar for years now and never noticed that!

is this a trick? the week does start on a monday. so you are annoyed that the week starts on a monday? 🙂
what day should it start with? 😕

The astronomical week starts on Sunday.

And that was the day that calendars used to mark the beginning of the week until the mid-1990s. I’m too old to accept the change.

The astronomical week starts on Sunday.

Do you work as an astronomer ?

The astronomical week starts on Sunday.

are you a starlet?

It’s annoying when 2 day events at the weekend have to wraparound. Week starting on Monday is the only sensible way.

My working week is Tuesday to Saturday. Just saying.

Other calendar apps are available – “Calendars” shows trhe week starting with the current day, for instance. Plus it syncs with Google calendars properly.

Recite the alphabet for me:
A
B
C
D
E
F
etc… Yes?

Recite the colurs of the rainbow for me:
Red
Orange
Yellow
Green
Blue
Indigo
Violet…… Yes?

Recite the months of the year for me:
January
February
March
April
May
June
etc……. Yes?

Now recite the days of the week……

What day did you just start with, eh?
No point trying to lie!!!! 🙂

I like to call Monday ‘oneday’, and Tuesday ‘twoday’. Wednesday will now be known as ‘Poddyday’…

DrP

Gee, thanks! 🙂

You guys will just never understand.
