[QUOTE="jnm3, post: 1422736, member: 242043"] Sly, Thanks for guidance on locating the proper ~/Library/... I, like you, had no ApplicationSupport folder named iCal, but did delete the other recommended files/folders. BUT, when I launched iCal in step 6, my calendars (5 in all) were still present and Home and Work cals were not present. So, since my 5 had been exported, I deleted them all and added cals: Work and Home. I created and appointment with an alert... but no alert popped up when it should have. Then I created an appointment on my iPhone and set an alert, and no alert happened. Am frustrated and think I would like to Uninstall and Re-Install iCal. Is that easy to do? Can it be done through the Mac App Store? (That would be nice...) Or from my Lion CD? Background A week or so a go, in an attempt to improve performance, I ran a utility (SpeedUp My MAC?) that may have removed needed files for iCal. (??) I would like to simply uninstall and reinstall iCal... then Import my 5 Calendars and trust that the iCal Helper issue is resolved in the process. You can probably tell, I'm a PC guy with fairly limited Mac/Unix *systems experience*. I can do the easy stuff but need a little guidance on how to proceed if it gets a too technical... I really appreciate the Forum guidance so far. Thanks, John in Denver [/QUOTE]
