Hi Rick, I wish I could remember exactly how to do it, but I don’t However, I’ve set up an iCal event to run monthly and in the event you can tell it to run an Automator program, so it only starts up once a month and Automator close again by itself (iCal doesn’t, though).

I ran it thru Automator as directed, but I’m confused. Does Automator have to be kept running? What will prompt the reminders to pop up? I don’t know what to do next. Thanks.

What a nice little iCal tweak. Setting reminders with alarms are great, as there is no greater faux pass than forgetting somebody’s birthday, especially when it is a feisty family member or even worse, client.

Now I wonder if you can set different alarms with different levels of “seriousness” to indicate how urgently you should be attending to the alarm? All the same sounding beeps soon gets lost in the clutter too, and heaven forbid you forget the wife’s birthday, or your anniversary

this application helps me a lot to be updated my regular day to day. It hard to maintain the task list in dairy.

Thanks a lot for sharing this information.

What a useful extension.

I am always really bad about dates and to be honest, I am not very likely to check my calendar unless I have an alarm set or know I added some stuff to it in the last week or two. So, having JUST birthdays in my calendar is pretty useless to me.
