wiered number on iCal icon

Its not an event or to-do item is it? It looks like iCal isn't open, try opening it and see if you get any alerts.

Don't get rid of it! My guess is that Apple has just selected you to be the beta tester for the new iphone/pda! (It is a Tuesday you know...)

Number on my ical icon

I have the same problem. After messing with all my calenders, the only change is that the number increased from 1 to 2. I don't know how to get rid of it.

I got it too, the number 1 in the upper right corner of my Dock icon. It is also to the right of my calendar under "Calendars" on the left, but none of my subscriptions?:

Number on iCal icon

I often receive meeting notifications via e-mail. It appears as a little iCal icon at the bottom of the e-mail. Clicking on it will automatically put the meeting on your iCal schedule. It will also put a note on iCal at the bottom left side of the calender and put a number on the iCal icon. Clicking on the note (apparently signifying that you are aware of the new calender item) removes both note and the number on your icon.

Little Red Number on ICal

All the posts are years old but maybe a new mac user (like me) will come here and need the answer.

I came here with the question "a little red three is on my calendar icon and I don't know why"

I opened the calendar and on top left I saw a three. I pressed the arrow near it and it listed three events. I clicked ok on each one and the corresponding red three on my ical went away.

Apparently it is a reminder-which I actually like.
