Hi all,

I've gone back to using Apple Calendar (also known as iCal) after some time away.

A problem I'm having is when you create a new event, Calendar will remove info you've typed in that it thinks is related to the event date and time. It's extremely annoying, especially when typing in reminders to contact people about upcoming events. Vital parts of the event info just vanish.

Eg:
'Meet Steve to discuss Wednesday's meeting' becomes "Meet Steve to discuss meeting'
What meeting?

'5pm discuss 7pm call' becomes '5pm discuss call'
Which call are we discussing?

'Complete action point 7.20' becomes 'Complete action point'
Which action point needs to be completed?

I need to keep that info in the event header. If I re-type it, it gets removed again. How do I turn off auto-removing detected data?
