Q: Calendar invitations do not go to my default calendar

I have my default calendar set as a Google calendar.

 

Yet when I receive calendar invitations to that Google account, Calendar shows it as two entries - one in the Google Calendar and the other in one of my iCloud calendars.

 

How do I get Calendar to behave?

 

TQ.

    Hello there, azsharom.

     

    It sounds like you are seeing Calendar duplicate events on your Google calendar. The following Knowledge Base article offers up some good initial steps to review for troubleshooting:

     

    Get help with duplicate iCloud calendars

     

    Remove duplicate calendars from your computer

    Follow the steps for your operating system.

    Mac

    Windows PC

     

    Mac

    To hide a calendar stored on your Mac, follow these steps: 

    1. Open Calendar. If you don't see a list of your calendars, click the Calendars button in the upper-left corner.
    2. Go to the section named On My Mac. 
    3. Compare the events in On My Mac to the events on your iCloud calendars. 
    4. If your calendars in iCloud show all of your events and the calendars on your Mac show only duplicates, hide the calendars on your Mac. To hide a calendar, uncheck its box in the section called On My Mac.  

    If you choose to delete calendars on your Mac, delete only those in the On My Mac section. Don't delete calendars on your Mac in any other section, like iCloud, Subscriptions, Other, or other calendar services.

    To delete calendars on your Mac, follow these steps: 

    1. Make a copy of your iCloud calendar data.
    2. In the On My Mac section, click the calendar you'd like to delete. 
    3. Choose Edit > Delete.
