Increment Birthdays and Anniversaries...?

Is there a way to have iCal show an annual count? i.e., on November 27, 20 09, “Bob's 2 4th birthday,” and then automagically on November 27, 20 10, “Bob's 2 5th birthday,” etc. Same for anniversaries, reunions... any annual event.

If not, please consider this a feature request! TIA —TedE

Hi Ted,

See my post here about Dates to iCal.

Dates to iCal adds incremental numbering to show the age in years for your Address Book anniversaries and birthdays.

Best wishes

Great utility, John!

I've never used Address Book for anything other than auto-filling email addresses... my “database” is simply a text file of free-form names, addresses, phone numbers etc. that I started in 1984 and simply got used to. This might be the final push I need to enter the 21st century! ;->

Best! —TedE
