Everytime I add an event to my calendar, it emails me the alert 30 min before. How do I get the alert but not have it emailed as I do not want my email blowing up all the time? Thanks!

Hello 11werwad,


Thank you for posting in the Apple Support Communities. I found an article with steps on editing the alerts for existing events:


iCal 5.x: Set an alert for an event

http://support.apple.com/kb/PH4704


This article says iCal 5, but should work for most versions of iCal and Calendar. You may also be able to change the default setting for alerts for all new events created in your iCal preferences. Depending on which version you have, you can set these preferences in iCal>Preferences>Advanced or Calendars>Preferences>Alerts. I hope this helps!



Best,

Sheila M.
