Calendar Problems

[Larry]

I recently starting using my calendar again, and am faced with seeing the birthdays of business contacts, which are completely unhelpful. This is something I really hate about Apple.
It says that the only way is to open the contacts menu and delete them one by one.
Is there a way to do this in automator? Or an app add on. Or how do I do this?
I realise that this occurred a long time ago when I synched my contacts with linkedin, this gave me all their birthdays, which I do not want to know.

I never knew a company had a "birthday"!

Have you tried control-click->Delete on the group.

If 'control Delete' leaves a bunch of individual contacts, I would think just deleting any/all dates in a contact would suffice.

Not sure why you want to blame Apple for the way a "social" app creates a list of calendar entries. It's just another invasion of our apps, data and habits by commercial entities. Guarantees you get a "reminder" of every LinkedIn contact... for ever!

Personally, deleting the entire group sounds like a perfect solution. I think it is rare for a company to not have a web site these days. Create a bookmark in URLMPro. If I want to contact any of them I'll simply visit their website/contact page.
