Reinstall iCalendar

Hello, is there an option to reinstall iCal (only this app). I'm running Mavericks, 10.9.2.

Are you referring to the Calendar app because the older iCal app is no longer available for download from Apple. If you have a Snow Leopard install disk set, the iCal app can be found on disk 2.

The Calendar app yes, I have Mavericks as Operating System and a bootable CD already.

OK, just wanted to be sure which app you were referring to. You can download the free Apple Calendar application from here.

When I click on the link and opens the macupdate page I clicked download button but nothing to download.

Built in applications cannot be reinstalled independently. As you'll see in this article from Apple, the only way to do it would be to reinstall OS X. You could use a third party calendar app. Here's a list of a few.

Good to know. For some reason, I thought the included apps could be downloaded independently. I think they could at one time - but I might be wrong.

Can I assume then that using something like Pacifist won't work? Assuming of course that the OP saved the installer.

Thank you. Pacifist doesn't work fine for me, for example I search the Calendar app and I'm trying to extract the packages but returns an error.

I wasn't sure whether it would work or not. I haven't tried it since Apple stopped releasing the OS on DVD. I wasn't able to try it. I need to download a new installer.

You're probably right. It looks like you could have downloaded them at some point.

The Pacifist option is something I thought about earlier but how does it work now that OS X is shipped digitally?

It takes some doing. Im not sure if you have to have it on a Thumb Drive or you can straight from the Installer in Applications. Ill play with it later, but I do remember I had to play around to extract something not so long ago.

I keep getting a error with a minute to go when I try and download Mavericks at the moment ?!?!? Hmmm

Be back

Strange Procedure

I was try with Pacifist to install the Calendar App (only) and after that, the App doesn't work properly so I had to reinstall Mavericks again. I don't know if I make something wrong but that's the story.
In our thread now, I've found that strange solution. (When I run the Apps as Apps, NOT FROM THE CALENDAR) and after that run them from Calendar they work fine. But If I run the App from Calendar, without run it first as App, it not works. I'm very confused, if somebody thinks something about it, I would like to know.

Thanks

^^^^ THIS ^^^^ I'm totally confused !!!

I know English isn't your first language, but honestly, this is just in comprehensible. What do you mean run Apps from Calendar and when you run Apps as Apps ?? I truly am lost, so if you could try to explain it better or screenshots if you thing that will help, that would be great.

Hello, I'm trying to say this :
When I lunch the app manually first and then lunch the same app from Calendar everything works perfect.
But if I lunch the app from Calendar without lunch it first manually gives me "a problem with one notification".

We do not understand "launch apps from Calendar." Calendars do not and can not launch apps, so we are lost and confused at what the problem actually is. Screen shots, please.

Calendar can be scheduled at specific time to send message, message with sound, send an Email or open a file. That's what I mean. I set my Calendar to open an app (like Contacts) at specific time.

Yes, you finally explained (in a completely different thread) that what you are actually trying to do is run an AppleScript that launches programs at a specific time, not Calendar (which, as I said before, cannot launch apps. An alarm in Calendar can open a FILE, which will launch the associated app, but not the app directly).

Seems like a lot of work for such a little thing. Have you considered just having the Contacts app launch automatically on login instead? You can actually set the Mac to boot up at a specific time (in energy settings) and on bootup it will launch apps you've set to do so, all without AppleScript. Would that accomplish what you're looking to do?

I spoke with Apple (yesterday and today), they said to me that "I discover a new bug on Mavericks" !!!

Mind explaining the bug to the forum please ??
