How to Use Calendar Programs on a Mac (6 Steps)

Go to the 'Applications' folder and double-click the iCal icon.
View iCal by the day, week or month using the tabs at the top of the window. You can change the view at any time.
Customize your calendars in the menu on the left side of the window. By default, there are two calendars: 'Home' and 'Work.' Add a new calendar by Control-clicking in the 'Calendars' area and selecting 'New Calendar.' Change the name and color of the calendar by Control-clicking on the new calendar and selecting 'Get Info.'
Schedule an event by clicking on a calendar to select it. Go to the main calendar window and click on the time and date at which you want to schedule the event. Drag downward to adjust the time for the event. You can adjust the time frame of the event using the resize pointer at the top and bottom of the event. You can move the event by dragging it.
Double-click on the event and press 'Edit' to enter information about the event. Type a name for the event in the text box at the top of the window. Enter a location, if desired, by clicking next to 'Location.' Select if the event will repeat. Adjust the alarm setting if you want a reminder for the event. Add notes at the bottom of the window, if desired. Press 'Done' to leave the editing window.
Click on the thumbtack icon in the lower right corner of the window to an item to a running 'To-Do' list. Select the appropriate calendar from the menu on the left side of the window. Control-click in the 'To-Do' area and select 'New To-Do.' Enter a name for the item and click on the icon to the right of the name to set the priority for the item. Set a due date and alarm for the item by Control-clicking it and selecting 'Get Info.'
