Hello, I've been a Mac user for almost two years. I've been trying to find an accessible calendar program for this Mac. I'm quite mixed up on how to use the Ical app. If anyone would like to add me to skype or e-mail me, I'd greatly appreciate it. My skype name is denise9522, and the e-mail address is [email protected] Thanks. On Aug 11, 2011, at 9:37 PM, M. Taylor wrote:
