Hi, thanks for using Hebcal.

Please note that because there are many holidays that fall on weekends this year, you'll find candle-lighting for 2nd day chag on Saturday night September 30th (for 2nd evening of Sukkot) and Saturday night October 7 (for erev Simchat Torah). In addition, you'll find Havdalah on Sunday night because this is when yontiff ends.

When there isn't a holiday on Sunday (for example, the weekend of Friday October 13 through Sunday October 15), you'll find Havdalah on Saturday night as expected.

To add a bit more detail,

תִּשְׁרֵי (transliterated Tishrei or Tishri) is the 7th month of the Hebrew year, is 30 days long, and corresponds to September or October on the Gregorian calendar.

The holiday that occurs on the 1st day of Tishrei is called Rosh Hashana, the Jewish New Year. Rosh Hashanah is a major holiday.

The first day of Tishrei is not considered Rosh Chodesh. Rosh Chodesh is a minor holiday that occurs at the beginning of every month on the Hebrew calendar. In the case of Tishrei, the major holiday of Rosh Hashana takes precedence.

Later in the month we observe Tzom Gedaliah on the 3rd, Yom Kippur on the 10th, Sukkot (from the 15th-21st), and Shmini Atzeret (on the 22nd) and Simchat Torah (on the 23rd in the Diaspora).

For more info, read The Month of Tishri – Judaism 101.

Thanks for using Hebcal! This is entirely intentional. There is no holiday called "Rosh Chodesh Tishrei." The holiday on the 1st of Tishrei is called Rosh Hashanah.

So sorry to hear that you are having trouble! The iPhone & iPad Jewish holidays download step-by-step instructions have been tested by thousands of Hebcal users and are working correctly.

Perhaps there is a problem with your device? Please consider restarting your device (this sometimes fixes an odd problem like this one). You can also contact Apple support for general help with their Calendar app.

Thanks for the feedback. We are still looking for an accurate and comprehensive source of information for Sephardi Torah/Haftarah readings. Can you recommend a source we could use? 

Thanks for using Hebcal, and thanks for your question.

Rosh Hashana coincides with Shabbat and Sunday quite often, on average every 3-4 years.

Hi, thanks for contacting Hebcal!

Shana Tova!

Hello, thanks for using Hebcal.

We haven't implemented a way to delete a Yahrzeit calendar (this is on our TODO list) but you can remove all of the names from an existing calendar and it will remove the data from our servers.

Shabbat shalom!
