    Please take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. Stop when the problem is resolved. Back up all data before making any changes.
      
    Step 1
      
    Delete the calendar account and add it back. If it's an iCloud account, all you have to do is uncheck and recheck the box marked Calendars & Reminders in the iCloud preference pane.

    Step 2
        

    You may be trying to access an invited event that you declined, or one that was rescheduled after you accepted it. The error message should give you a clue as to what it is. If the calendar is on iCloud, you can bring up the Calendar on the website and select

    Show Declined Events

    from the popup menu with the gear icon in the upper right corner of the page. The declined events will appear in gray, and one of them should match what's shown the error message. [Credit for this solution to ASC member Psi.]

    Step 3

    If you get the error when trying to accept an invitation in an email attachment, it's because the organizer didn't properly create the event.

    Step 4

    Follow the instructions in this support article.

    Hello,

     

    Thank you for taking the time to reply and help.

    I have tried deleting and reinstating iCal in iCloud, but it appears to make no difference.

    I looked at the calendar on the website and clicked on ''Show declined events" but there are none that appear.

     

    I don't share my calendar with anyone else, only my iPhone and iPad - and it seems to be working ok on those.

    I cannot get rid of the error message box on my iMac so cannot use the calendar on my computer at all.  This means I cannot complete even the first step in trying to export the calendar.

     

    I had a problem on my old computer with calendar and just gave up using it.  Is there some problem connecting with Blue Yonder (which is what the error message says) and if so how do I deal with it?

     

    Sorry to say I am competent at some tasks on the computer, but there are still big gaps in my computer knowledge, especially when it comes to trouble shooting.....
