Hi,


Is this on your phone, or in iCal on your computer? I'd back up my calendars before doing the following in iCal:


  • Search for all events in iCal by putting a quote (i.e. " ) in the search box (top right in iCal's main window).
  • You will then get a list of all events in your visible calendars.
  • Sort this list by start date and scroll down to the first date you are interested in.
  • Click the event, so it is highlighted.
  • Scroll down to the last event you want removed and Shift-Click it.
  • You should have all the events you want deleted highlighted.
  • Press Delete.


Best wishes

Thank you John, for one of the few helpful answers!


This and similar issues about old Calendar entries are all over "the boards", most without any solution. But I found it on Apple's Support area. Use this link and read all about it: iCloud: Advanced Calendar and iCal troubleshooting - Apple Support


The short answer is download the trial of BusyCal (if you are a Mac user). If you like it, buy it. I did.
