Endless "adding a new event" popups. Can't stop them

After making the mistake of adding my Gmail account to my Apple Mail, I now can't open Ical. When I do I get a "adding a new event" popup. If I hit "cancel" I get another popup. If I hit "ok" I get an endless cascade of Adding a new Event popups. I have to force quit to get it to stop and it won't allow me to go to preferences.
Any suggestions?

Hello Only Influencers,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
I would like to recommend that you can remove the account from the System Preferences in Mail, Contacts, and Calendars.
Stop using a web service provider account
Choose Apple Menu > System Preferences, and then click Mail, Contacts & Calendars.
Select the account.
Do one of the following:
To delete all the accounts in applications that use the selected account, click Delete (-).
To stop a specific application from using the account, deselect the application’s checkbox.

  • Outdated all-day calendar event notifications coming up daily on my new Z10 -how can I stop them? HELP!

    When I got my new z10, I used the Blackberry Desktop to transfer things like calendar entries, tasks, and memos from my old BB Bold to the new phone.  The memos transferred fine, although it took me awhile to locate them in the "remember" folder.  Many of the calendar entries transferred correctly I think, although I also use Outlook and have that sync with the Z10 calender so it's hard to tell.  But I have numerous calendar entries from 2010, 2011, 2012 that repeatedly show up as notifications every day, and when I click to edit them, the screen just flashes and goes to the next old entry -I have to go through about 30 of them every day.  At the end, I've had a few that will let me edit them -they seem to be old entries that had recurrences.  The ones that won't go away are "all day" single entries.  The calendar only shows the last 90 days and the future 90 days (which I hate -I'd love to be able to see the last two years like I used to), so I can't edit calendar entries from two years ago directly on the phone.  Any help would be appreciated!!

  • When I launch my iCal it keeps "adding a new event" over and over

    When I launch my iCal it keeps "adding a new event" over and over and over. It never lets me actually get into the iCal aplication? is there a way I can clear and reset mt iCal calender?

    Greetings William,
    1. Go to iCal > Quit iCal
    2. Remove the following to the trash and restart your computer:
    Home > Library > Caches > com.apple.ical
    Home > Library > Calendars
    Home > Library > Preferences > com.apple.ical (There may be more than one of these. Remove them all.)
    --- NOTE: To get to "Home > Library" in Lion: Click anywhere on the desktop and then click on the "Go" menu at the top of the computer screen while holding down the "option" key on the keyboard.  You will see "Library" in the menu.
    --- NOTE: Removing these files may remove any shared (CalDAV) calendars you may have access to. You will have to re-add those calendars to iCal > Preferences > Accounts.
    3. Launch iCal and test.
    Hope that helps.

    The Google Search setting has an option '''Where results open'''. If it is selected, you can try deselecting that. If it doesn't solve the problem, please check if this happens in [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe%20Mode Safe Mode]. Safe mode disables the installed '''Extensions''', and themes ('''Appearance''') in '''Tools''' ('''Alt''' + '''T''') > '''Add-ons'''.

All these settings/options/add-ons can also be individually or collectively disabled/enabled/changed in Firefox normal mode to check if an extension, theme, option or hardware acceleration is causing issues. Disabling/enabling hardware acceleration, and some types of add-ons in normal mode may require a Firefox restart.

    in test/trial movie and [ action script ] (stop) is not working - is my only resolution to call adobe tomorrow?

  • Since I updated to firefox 3.6 I keep gettin multiple popup windows. This did not happen until after the update. The popups appear as regular windows so popup blockers can not stop them.

    Since I updated to firefox 3.6 I keep gettin multiple pop up windows. This did not happen until after the update. The pop ups appear as regular windows so pop up blockers can not stop them. Why has the new update made my laptop more vulnerable. updates are supposed to be improvements!
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == as soon as I updated to ver 3.6

    Im having the same problem, I updated my Iphone 4S to 6.1.3, shortly after that my phone had no audio. It was working fine one minute and then stopped. Was listening to music when sound gave out on me. It wont ring, phone just vibrates even after turning off vibration option. I've tried all the options listed and nothing. My phone has never been jailbroken either. If I connect the earphones is works perfectly. On one of my last calls received, phone's ringtone was heard for about 2 seconds before muting and just vibrating. Ringtone sounded perfect, speakers did not sound damaged. 
    What else could be done? I've read several post regarding this and it seems like Apple has no solution to this yet. Very dissappointed.

  • HT1399 When I import a CD to itunes, it splits the album in to multiple entries. I have changed the info on some but others just will not merge. Is there an easy way to do this and can I stop them from splitting in future? Thanks

    Okay this is what fixed my problem. Some kind of error/glitch occured half-way through importing that third cd that prevented further imports from any other cd. Once I completely removed the half-imported cd album from my library I could further import cd's without any problems.

  • After adding a new account, I can't delete emails from the inbox of this account.

    I just added a sixth account to my Thunderbird installation. There was no problem adding the account and I can send and receive emails without problem. However, I cannot delete emails from the inbox. What should I do to correct this?

    It is a POP account.
    I just backed up the profile.
    I don't know the size of the inbox nor how to see what it is nor change it. However, the inbox for this account is currently empty. (Yes, I know this post is about not being able to delete emails from the inbox, so how can it be empty? In my research I found a post of someone with the same problem who discovered he could move emails from the inbox to another folder and then delete that folder (not the individual mails in the folder, but only the entire folder). That is how I emptied the inbox, but it is a very cumbersome work around that I shouldn't have to do.

  • Lost all event files -- can't locate them anywhere. Please help.

    All of my work has just disappeared. Please help if you can. I'll describe my steps to help you understand what occurred.
    1. I was working in an event folder with a name "New Event 7-17-09." There were numerous videos inserted as cutaways and other elements.
    2. On two occasions I had error messages that a video was not able to copy in. I noticed a half black-half gray icon. I re-generated the videos. The first time I had quit iMovie and relaunched, only to find that all of my source videos were gone from the event pane. I had to re-import them.
    3. Just now it happened again. I was afraid to quit and lose the video again so I took a chance and clicked on another event date and tried to import this video that couldn't be copied. Well, it copied okay. HOWEVER, the event date I was working in, "New Event 7-17-09," has now disappeared completely. And again -- all of the source videos are gone when I click around in the project pane. The videos only now exist in the work folder they were imported from...not from within iMovie. They are not in the Movie folder.
    4. I checked "Show Contents" and there are no project files in there.
    So I am left with a project pane but no event pane with all of these source files. I have lost, in essence, all of my work.
    I didn't delete anything, I didn't move anything. I just clicked once in a different event pane, and then all of what I had was gone.
    Can you please tell me where else I can look?
    Does this program utilize some kind of strange file system or something?
    Any help you can offer is very much appreciated.

    Timemachine is one of the most underestimated (english?) features of 10.5.
    It is as simple as that (a no-click application )
    and it is not just a backup of 'all', you can select down to a single file, what to be recovered..

    I am a fervent Firefox user and using the new Firefox 4.0 with great pleasure. However in this new version every time I open a new tab, it opens with Babylon search. How can I stop this. I want to open it standard with Google search.
    Best regards.

    Go to the "Tools" menu and select "Add-ons". It will open a popup. Click in the "Extensions" tab. Look for the "Babylon Search" extension. Click the "Uninstall" button. Then close and reload Firefox.
