iCal on Mountain Lion.
I only use iCal in Month view, and I only have 2 or three events per day. For the last 2 years I've been using iCal, each day's pigeonhole on the month-by-month view will show something like this:
10am Client visit
2-3pm Meet Surveyor
5pm Pick up kids
I'm happy with that, & it lets me check my availability and schedule across a whole month in one go.
In Mountain Lion, iCal now uses Data Detectors (or something like that) to identify event times in the event title. It then *REMOVES* the time info and slots the event into the day-at-a-time or week-at-a-time view. So iCal grabs my carefully typed in event titles and munges them to look like this:
Client visit
Meet Surveyor
Pick up kids
WTF???? I typed in these event times, leave them there!!! *&£$ iCal! I have to retype in the time info in the event title every time it does this. I've looked on the internet and in other threads & I can't work out how to disable this behaviour.
To test this yourself, in month view, double click on a day to create a new event, type in '9am visit doc' or whatever, and see the '9am' vanish.
What's the one thing an scheduling manager shouldn't do? Remove scheduling information you typed in!
Can anyone help?
