iCal Icon    Changing or deleting an event
 

You can change the time, day, alarm, or any other settings for any events you've created, or you can delete an event.

You cannot change the events on a calendar you've subscribed to (subscribed calendars have a curved arrow beside them in the Calendars list), and you can only change the calendar, status, and alarms for events you've been invited to.

•

To change the time or day of an event, drag the event to the new time or day in the main calendar view.

•

To change an event's duration, drag the event's top or bottom edge. (You can resize events only in Day or Week view.) If the event is an all-day event, drag its left or right side.

•

To change the name of an event, double-click the title of the event and type a new name.

•

To edit other characteristics of an event (for example, the alarm, status, or guests), select the event, click the Info button in the bottom-right corner of the window, and make your changes in the Info drawer. When you're in Day or Week view you can also open the Info drawer by double-clicking the bar along the top of the event (where the event's time appears).

•

To delete an event, select the event and press the Delete key on your keyboard.

If you're changing an event to which you've invited other people, you need to send an updated event to the attendees by clicking the Send button at the bottom of the event's Info drawer. For more information, click "Tell me more."

You can also use keyboard shortcuts to edit events. For more editing tips or information about editing alarms or how often events occur, click "Tell me more."
