Ever since "upgrading" to Mavericks 10.9 I cannot change the start time on an event. It's not clickable. Only the end time is. If I click the start time nothing happens. If I click the end time I can adjust it easily. What's up with this? 😕
Mac mini, OS X Mavericks (10.9)
I never noticed that. I select the start time and then type to set the start time.
If you give no time it will set to the default start time.
Delete the entry and include your preferred start time.
One short cut is the + in the upper left; include the date and time and event here.

How exactly are you doing this?
OK but what if I don't want to "Quick Create" and what if I have an existing appiontment that I need to change the START time of? It's insane that I would have to delete and recreate it every time the start time changes. It is not exactly a infrequent situation where you have a meeting and the time gets moved.
Has apple now jumped on the standard big coporation bandwagon of creating products that get worse with every new version?
At least the dialog box sizes itself correctly now. In the previous version if one were adding a lot of addresses or notes one could expand the size of the box a bit but then when one made an entry is shrunk the window again so you had to scroll again to see all the info. Now it sizes itself to fit the data. One still can't see all the data at once but at least when conentrating on addresses they are nicely formatted and so are the notes.
Select the hour (as shown above) or minute of the start time and type in a number. Just because you don't get a pop-up menu doesn't mean you can't change it.
Oh thanks that solves my issue. Never occured to me that you can just type over it. I would expect all the times to have the same interface to edit/change.
Thanks, this solves one problem for me. But in a very annoying way:
I select the hours and start typing "15" (I use 24hr time format).
"1" goes in well, and the value becomes "1".
The next "5" is ignored, and the value becomes "05"!
Only second attempt gets the result right. What a mess!
What's up with this awful new calendar? Cannot change start time!
