BusyCal is an award-winning desktop calendar that combines personal productivity features for individuals with powerful calendar sharing capabilities for families and workgroups. Its unique features include a non-modal Info Panel for easier data entry; To Dos that display in the calendar and auto-forward until completed; repeating To Dos; customizable calendar views including a List view and scrolling Month and Week views; adjustable font styles and sizes, live weather feeds, moon phases, graphics, sticky notes and more. And when you first launch BusyCal, all of your iCal data is instantly imported.

  1. Localisation pop up stay blocked and impossible to close it, even if preferences localisation are already enable. (On mac OS 10.15). Any idea to fix ? :/

  2. MALICIOUS ACTIONS: Works, but constantly asks me to enter password to use information in my keychain. Previous version did not do this, and I don’t think its necessary, so I would be very warey of installing any other HCiSO packages. Seems sketchy.

  3. Since this version 2022.1.4 I have problems with syncing with my Google Account. Don´t know if this is related to Busycal or if there is a problem on Googles side.

  4. BusyCal 2023.1.1 does not work unless it can connect to the developer.

    It displays the message “BusyCal is unable to validate your serial number. BusyCal needs to connect once to the internet to validate your serial number. Please disable any network blocking utilities.” when it starts, and then exits when you click OK.

  5. Does anyone have an idea why busycal crashes all the time (all versions later than 2022.4.7)? This one again. If I am away from my Mac for a while I see again the crash message.

  7. Maybe I have found a solution for this crashing problem:

    osxdaily dot com/2021/11/08/fix-app-crashing-apple-silicon-mac/

    The solution to fix the app crashing problem is rather straightforward; install Rosetta in macOS again.

    The simplest way to reinstall Rosetta 2 is by opening the Terminal application, found via Spotlight (Command+Spacebar and typing Terminal), or by going the /Applications/Utilities/ folder, and then issuing the following command string:

    /usr/sbin/softwareupdate –install-rosetta –agree-to-license

  8. Nope, “rosetta” reinstallation didn´t solve the problem. Here is a part of the Crash-report. Does anyone know what this means?

  9. I have also tried this version BusyCal 2023.2.1 with a complete new installation: it crashes after a while. As far it concerns me only BusyCal202247 is working without problems.

  10. Hi @tsnre! I am also struggling with you to get BusyCal to work and have failed. Could you please share again the link to the working version please?
