Q: I can't add or change events in my calendar

Last Week I changed from Yosemite to El Capitan OS and since then, I get a window which says "You can't change events in the Found in Mail calendar" and this message  "Only the calendar administrator and any delegates with permission can make changes to read-only calendars. To make changes to the calendar, contact the calendar administrator.". I am the administrator but I don't know how to change the default to be a normal calendar where I can add or change appointments/events. I subscribe to one extra calendar and that also doesn't allow me to add or change events.

iMac, OS X El Capitan (10.11.4), mid 2011

    I had this same problem, and I hope after several months you have resolved the issue. The reason calendar may be giving the message "You can’t change events in the “Found in Mail” calendar." is because calendar is unchecked in iCloud account under System Preferences > Internet; ensure calendar is checked in iCloud and that should fix the error message.
