Woe no more…iCal is back!

Posted by Jessica on July 22nd 2008  

iCalWhen the 10.5.3 update to OS X borked my iCal installation, I tried quite a few things to get my iCal back in working order.  When you clicked the dock icon, it would just bounce and never actually open the program.  I tried trashing a couple of files according to some directions I found on the Apple discussion boards, but that didn’t work either.  So I’ve just been biding my time with Google Calendar in full-screen while waiting for the 10.5.4 update to come out.

I have been busy the past couple weeks, so I just upgraded to 10.5.4 over the weekend.  I’m happy to report that iCal is now functional!  It opens very quickly and everything is just as it should be, syncing up with my Google Calendar via BusySync.  I’m so happy to have it working again, especially since it’s so nice to see my appointments and deadlines on my 19″ wide screen LCD when I’m working at home!

Moral of the story?  I’ll be backing up my Mac very, very soon (using Amazon S3 and Jungle Disk of course!) just in case any future updates don’t install correctly.
