Deleted Birthday Calendar on Mac

While getting familiar with my first MacBook ever and looking around the Calendar app, I accidentally deleted the birthday calendar (one of the two grey ones, along with the Siri one), and now I can't see birthdays from my contacts. I also did multiple steps after that, so the command-z function is not an option. Any help? Thanks.

Greetings, Droake.


I see that you've accidentally removed the Birthdays calendar from the Calendar application on your MacBook. I'm happy to help.


Show or hide the Birthdays calendar on Mac -- In the Calendars application, choose Calendar > Preferences > General, then turn on "Show Birthdays calendar" and the others down near the bottom-left.


Take care!
