How can I have my script run certain days / months

I have just created a python script that automatically renews my pass. Is it possible to make the script run like a app or a background program to check if it is a certain day of a month and to run it?

That's just scheduled task.
In your task call python.exe, pass your script as an argument and that's it.

Python Script won't run as a scheduled task on Windows 2008 R2

I have multiple recurring tasks scheduled to run several times per day to keep some different data stores in sync with one another. The settings for the 'Actions' tab are as follows:
Action: Start a Program
Program/script: C:\<path to script>.py
Add arguments:
Start in: C:\<directory of script>
I can run the python files just fine if I use the command line and navigate to the file location and use python or even just using python without navigating.
For some reason, the scripts just won't run with a scheduled task. I've checked all over and tried various things like making sure the user profile is set correctly and has all of the necessary privileges, which holds true. These scripts have been working for several weeks now with no problems, so something has changed that we aren't able to identify at this time.
Any suggestions?

Have you tried using:
Action: Start a Program
Program/script: C:\<path to python.exe>\python.exe
Add arguments: C:\\<path to script>\\script.py

Need pythonic way to schedule one time jobs with arguments

The premise is that I have a script which checks a resource every morning, and retrieves times and URI of events, which will vary from day to day. I want to pass the time and URI location to a scheduler, so that a script designed to capture the event gets called at the event time, passing the location as a variable to the capture script.
At first glance crontab seems like the easiest way to do it, but every job is unique and will only run once, so it creates a lot of maintenance.

I don't have a suggestion for Python specifically, but given that you mentioned crontab as something you were considering, the "one-off" version of a crontab would be at.

How to run a Python script online every N minutes?

To work a bit on my Python, I decided to try to code a simple script for my private use which monitors sites with offers and sends you an email whenever a new offer which you are interested in pops out. I guess I could handle the coding part (extracting the newest one from HTML and such) but I've never really run online any script which requires being fired every N minutes or so. What kind of hosting/server do I need to make my script run independently of my computer and refresh every, say, 5 minutes sending me an email when there's an update?

If you have shell access, you an use crontab to schedule a recurring job.
Otherwise you can use a service like SetCronJob or EasyCron or similar to invoke a script regularly.
Some hosters also provide similar functionalities in their administration interface...

Automate Python Script

I'm running a python script manually that fetches data in JSON format.How do I automate this script to run automatically on an hourly basis?
I'm working on Windows7.Can I use tools like Task scheduler?If I can use it,what do I need to put in the batch file?

Can I use tools like Task scheduler?
Yes. Any tool that can run arbitrary programs can run your Python script. Pick the one you like best.
If I can use it,what do I need to put in the batch file?
What batch file? Task Scheduler takes anything that can be run, with arguments—a C program, a .NET program, even a document with a default app associated with it. So, there's no reason you need a batch file. Use C:\Python33\python.exe (or whatever the appropriate path is) as your executable, and your script's path (and its arguments, if any) as the arguments. Just as you do when running the script from the command line.
See Using the Task Scheduler in MSDN for some simple examples, and Task Scheduler Schema Elements or Task Scheduler Scripting Objects for reference (depending on whether you want to create the schedule in XML, or via the scripting interface).
You want to create an ExecAction with Path set to "C:\Python33\python.exe" and Arguments set to "C:\MyStuff\myscript.py", and a RepetitionPattern with Interval set to "PT1H". You should be able to figure out the rest from there.
As sr2222 points out in the comments, often you end up scheduling tasks frequently, and needing to programmatically control their scheduling. If you need this, you can control Task Scheduler's scripting interface from Python, or build something on top of Task Scheduler, or use a different tool that's a bit easier to get at from Python and has more helpful examples online, etc.—but when you get to that point, take a step back and look at whether you're over-using OS task scheduling. (If you start adding delays or tweaking times to make sure the daily foo1.py job never runs until 5 minutes after the most recent hourly foo0.py has finished its job, you're over-using OS task scheduling—but it's not always that obvious.)

May I suggest WinAutomation or AutoMate. These two do the exact same thing, except the UI is a little different. I prefer WinAutomation, because the scripts are a little easier to build.

Yes, you can use the Task Scheduler to run the script on an hourly bases.
To execute a python script via a Batch File, use the following code:
start path_to_python_exe path_to_python_file
Example:
start C:\Users\harshgoyal\AppData\Local\Continuum\Anaconda3\python.exe %UserProfile%\Documents\test_script.py
If python is set as Window’s Environment Window then you can reduce the syntax to:
start python %UserProfile%\Documents\test_script.py
What I generally do is run the batch file once via Task Scheduler and within the python script I call a thread/timer every hour.
class threading.Timer(interval, function, args=None, kwargs=None)
