Q: Work and home locations wrong in calendar?

I am using calendar in Yosemite.

When I enter a location for a calendar event, you can set travel time. It either uses the location of your previous event, or your home or work address in your contact info, based on what time of day it is.

Until today I had no problems. Now it seems however that calendar changes the locations of work and home. It picks locations quite near the destination at random, but per event. So the start-location changes per destination, but remains the same for that destination if it reappears on later dates. In the contacts app, both work and home addresses are filled in correctly.

Anyway, this causes travel times to be way of and therefore notifications can be timed wrong also. And instead of getting the right route when I quickly on my phone I have to change the start address which is a hassle.

 

Anybody else seen this behavior?

    I have the exact same problem. When selecting "Home" as the location for an event on Calendar, it suggests the correct home address (as it listed in my contacts). As soon as I choose this, though, it swaps the address to one near to my home - the same house number, and a similar street name and postcode, but clearly not my home address.

     

    So yes, I'm seeing basically the same behaviour that you are...I just wish I had a way of resolving it!

    It's worse for me. It has started choosing random places around the US that are related to the word "Home". For example, today it chose a company called Home, Inc., for one calendar event, and a town called Home, MI, for another. This is crazy.
