iPhoto calendar. Is there any way to get rid of ('s birthday)?

When I make calendar I get the birthdays from my address book, which is great. But it says Sara´s birthday and I am from Iceland and don't won't ('s birthday) after the names. It takes a lot of time to delete this. Is there any way to get rid of this?

Separate from this issue, had you tried to restore iPhotos in your Mac?


Was the iPhoto application still in the Applications folder? Some users

who upgraded to another OS X found Photos for Mac had replaced the

default action where iPhotos used to be primary; it and its library remain,

but are not selected by the later OS X.


This is a separate problem and has been addressed in several discussions.


So hopefully the person who replied last time, will address your current issue

that may not directly relate to the loss of iPhoto, due to OS X upgrade.


Good luck...!

Your iPhoto issue should be addressed in another discussion of your own making;

though several answers exist, some may not appear to work out for you if details

of your Mac configuration and ownership history vary from the ideal state...


an idea from a prior time (things change) was posted by the guy at this other site

that may not fully apply now at this time; but was current many months ago and

only under circumstances like he suggested: (may not work or apply to you)

Be sure to have a complete backup of your computer contents, and if you have a

time machine, be sure it has a recent backup with the iPhoto item, before proceeding.


If you are the original owner of the computer and it shipped with iPhoto or you bought

a version from the App Store, you may be able to 'Trash' iPhoto from your Applications

folder and then go to the App Store to (see if) your iPhoto appears in previously bought

purchases; if so, it May be possible to download a more recent version. It would be big.


However this does vary depending on the previous version of iPhoto (if you had Mavericks

and then upgraded to Yosemite, the older 9.5 version iPhoto is what you had. It is not a

compatible version in Yosemite, so you'd need iPhoto 9.6.1. Be sure to study this topic

and try to read and understand the similar discussions in these ASC boards.


Try the suggestions offered by Old Toad to see if you can resolve this other issue, first. 😐

(your iPhoto library will not be affected by newer Photos, it has its own library, btw.)
