Hi William,
I'm experiencing exactly the same thing as you with the calendar. It's so
frustrating. And, when I finally get the recurring appointment set up the way
I want, and click the "Done" button, the appointments aren't showing up. It's
as if I hadn't created any appointments. Previous versions of OS X worked much
better with VO in the calendar. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Russell
