Rant - problems with Mountain Lion, iCloud & Calendar
#8
Thank you very much for your help; this problem has really had me by the neck.
I deleted the accounts via the Calendar Preferences. Now there are no accounts. I went back to the calendar and imported the two ics files again from Dropbox as new calendars. I was able to change their names without any problem. These two calendars are now listed under the heading "On My Mac". I also subscribed to US Holidays using Help>Find Calendar Subscriptions. This seems to have put me back to the same position as with iCal in 10.6.8.

If I were to reenable iCloud>Calendars & Reminders, would you expect I would have the problems also return? So long as my wife and I exchange calendars via Dropbox I fear the Calendar problems (403 errors and inability to change calendar names) would continue. Under 10.6.8 iCal she and I would export our calendars to Dropbox. Each of us would delete the other's old calendar from iCal and import the new version into a newly created calendar. Why you ask - because importing the ics file and adding the events in that file to an existing calendar would yield multiple entries for the same events.

You've helped me get to the point where I have a useful Calendar. Now I will turn on iCloud Calendar & Reminders and see what happens. I would like the calendars to show up on my iPad via iCloud. With the information you've given me I can always go back what amounts to the 10.6.8 status.
