I guess your problem is that the calendar is indeed popped up, but the cursor is still in the daytime prompt in the minibuffer. As Bernt points out, typing -2 at that point gets you to the right date. The calendar seems to be for inveterate mouser users, not keyboard types: even if I C-x o to the calendar window, the cursor ends up not on today's date but off to the right somewhere and I get an error message: ,---- | Error in post-command-hook (org-read-date-display): (buffer-read-only *Calendar*) `---- Not sure what's going on there: I expected that after I switched windows to the Calendar, my cursor would be on today's date.
