Possible fix for US holiday calendar?

This is for your Mac:

If the listed calendars are not showing Click on the button to the left of the + sign and they will appear.

I used September as an example. Click on the check mark to the left Of US Holidays (in red on mine, yours could be different). The box will be empty and Labor Day will disappear. You are unsubscribed.

I already posted how you can unsubscribe from Apple's. If you ran into a whole bunch of other problems clicking on a box that you have much more serious problems with your system than Apple's US Holidays calendar. You click the box it unchecks it and the holidays disappear from your calendar. It won't affect administration, file management systems or any other software. And as I said if you are unable to unsubscribe by checking on a box you either need to hire someone to show you how to do it or get your Mac checked out at the Apple Store.

Your ideal solution would require changing the standard for subscription calendars. Apple cannot do that. If you go to Windows and subscribe to calendars it will work the exact same way. It is an all or nothing proposition, you get no choice in which ones to select/reject.

On my iPhone, when I open the calendar and then press ‘calendar’ at the bottom, then uncheck US Holidays calendar, it removes all references to any and all events that come with that calendar. It does not affect my personal entries. It sort of “unsubscribed” me from the calendar. That is the only way I know to “fix” not having extra entries on the calendar.

I don’t think Apple is going to change their calendar so your only option is to find one that suits your needs. But, since you say that unsubscribing is not something you want to consider, then you just have to learn to live with the one you have.

I can post a screenshot if you want but all you have to do is click on the box next to it and it unsubscribes.

Only the person who published the calendar can edit it; for US Holidays from Apple that would be Apple. If you create/publish your own calendar you can edit it to your heart's content. You can't edit a calendar I publish and you subscribe to.

Your biased view of what constitutes a "US holiday", and the very premise that Apple needs to "fix" the calendar, are the types of statements that take the dialog right down the rabbit hole that you don't want to enter.

Other than unsubscribing from Apple's US Calendar your only option is to provide feedback:

You also have the option of (1) Entering the holidays you want into the calendar each year (I am assuming you do not way Easter on your calendar, correct?) or (2) there are calendar apps available that will place various holidays you select on your calendar and let you automate this process. These are not subscription calendars, they are apps.

Unsubscribing from that calendar just means unticking the box and it will no longer appear. Can you explain how this will do anything to your admin system? There are literally hundreds of thousands of subscription calendars, find one that has the holidays you prefer and subscribe to it. Problem solved.

I'm sure that Tim Cook is quite aware of the issues with their US Holidays subscription calendar since it started with Easter being left out. He and the senior executives don't come here, lottery or not, you have to use the feedback link. You won't get a response. Lots of workarounds have already been provided. Perhaps if you explain what your admin issue is someone can provide a more complete workaround. I wish Apple would rename that calendar to something like US Events since it has April Fools Day, Daylight Savings and Tax Day (and has for some time for some of these). But it is just a plain subscription calendar conforming to the standards of any subscription calendar. Apple cannot change the standard on their own.

Do you want to know how to unsubscribe on a Mac or on your iDevice? I can provide a screen shot for either. It is really easy.

And all the laws there are don't apply to this discussion. Federal holidays are just that, they apply to Federal government agencies and employees.

There is no response from the Feedback app, it says that when you submit it. As an attorney I would think you would understand that.

While the terms may differ as I have already shown you, with the screen shot that you asked for, if you uncheck the box next to US Holidays it will turn off the sync, will remove ALL events included from that published calendar from your calendar (or your clients or whoever this is for). You won't see all those other holidays that you don't want to see, PROBLEM SOLVED. Leaving it on the computer/phone will not hurt anything and will not affect any administrative tasks, etc. Any software you are using that uses the Apple calendar will just not see those holidays anymore.

You couldn't tell you were a nice guy from reading mosts of your posts here. You sound more like a troll. You can't roll back the OS on any iDevices, it is not supported. Rolling back your macOS will accomplish exactly nothing. It will not change the Apple US Holidays subscription calendar, if you have it turned on it will sync the same events that you currently have.

I you must leave it turned on because of past events than just ignore the other holidays that don't concern you. Is that so hard for you? Probably is.

It's not broken. You can not edit or modify any subscribed calendar.

If you don't like the calendar they provide, unsubscribe from it and subscribe to something else.

I read it. Just because you don't like the answer doesn't alter reality.

You can unsubscribe from it easily. If you would take a few minutes to, oh... maybe read the manual... you would know that.
