A few ideas:


  1. Open Calendar while holding the shift key
  2. If this doesn't work, please look at: If an app on your Mac stops responding, closes unexpectedly, or won’t open - Apple Support

Not likely to help them, but yes...


Advanced: If you can't Safe Boot with a keyboard


If for some reason you can't use the keyboard method to start in Safe Mode (the keyboard is missing or not working, for example), and you already have remote access to the computer, you can configure the computer to startup in Safe Mode via its command line


  1. Access the command line by either opening Terminal remotely, or by logging into the computer from another via SSH.

  2. Execute the following command in Terminal or on the command line:


   sudo nvram boot-args="-x"


   (If you want to start in Verbose mode as well, use sudo nvram boot-args="-x -v" instead )

    


  3. After using Safe Boot, to return to a normal startup, execute this command in Terminal or the command line:


   sudo nvram boot-args=""

Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at startup), does the problem occur in Safe Mode? Could take 10 minutes.


Safe mode attempts to repair Disks & clears lots of caches & loads safe Drivers, & prevents loading of 3rd party extensions, so if Safe Mode works try again in regular boot.


To find out if it's system wide or user specific, try this...


Open System Preferences>Users & Groups, unlock the lock, click on the little plus icon, make a new admin account, log out & into the new account.


Does it work in the new account?
