On the subject of iCal, it'd be nice if I could set up an email
message reminder for events, but I haven't been able to doso. .
Even though I have an address book card with my own email address in
it,which is required for this feature to work, when I try to do
this, it's still saying that one is required. Any thoughts anyone?

Marcy,
Sounds like you are looking in the rong place. It should say,
"calendar area canvas" and then interact with it Make sure you have
stopped interacting with all of the windows before you press done.

Keith,
Wow! What great directions! I added my first event, and even
figured out how to get an alert. But when I finally pressed done,
I went back to the canvas area, interacted with it, and there were
no events in there. There was just a show to do list, whatever
that is. So, what happened to my event? I'd hate to see it
cancelled before it happens! Thanks again, and I'll wait eagerly
for your response! Marcy

Ical Guide
The first thing you will hear when you open ical is,
calendar area canvas. If you already have information entered into
your calendar, you can interact with this area, VO keys-down arrow
and move right or left with VO keys-left and right arrow keys to
hear your information. In ical menus, VO keys-m or control-F2,
under view, you can choose whether you want your calendar to show
information in, a day, week, or, month view.
Add an Event
To add an event, press command-n and start typing the name of your
event. If you do not want to add any other information, just press
enter and your event will be added to your calendar.
If you want to modify the date, time ECT, press command-e to edit
your event. Now with the VO keys-right or left arrow, move to the
right or left until you hear, "Event Details" and interact, VO keys-
down arrow. Now you can move through the edit fields. If you want
to change the, month, date and time, interact with this field then
you can move to the left or right with Vo and arrow keys. If you
would like to change the month for-instants, while you are on the
month, use VO keys-up, or, down arrow to change the month and stop
interacting when you have finished.
As you are moving through these fields you will find buttons to
select a number of items, pressing down arrow will drop down a
menu. Once you have maid your choice, press space to select your
choice.
Once you have completed your editing, stop interacting with "Event
Details.
Now with the VO keys-right, or, left arrow keys, find the done
button and click it with VO keys-shift-space bar and your edited
event will appear in your calendar.
Moving to the next, or, previous day, week, or, month, depending on
which calendar view you have your calendar set for is done with,
command-right arrow to move forward and command-left arrow to move
back. You may find that you will need to interact with your new
choice.
You will find lots of keyboard commands and lots of information in
the menus.

Hi, everyone!
I've learned so much and the process is continuing. I want to
learn to use the calendar. I would really appreciate any
instructions, advice, and/or pointers from anyone who is in the
know about the ical application.
Thanks in advance! Marcy
