iCal week view window disappeared

[heyupchuck]

Hi

The week view window in iCal has disappeared. Month view and day view is available but not week view. Very strange. Help I use it all the time.

Is it not in the View menu either? Have you got any theme changers installed? Can you get to it with COMMAND-2?

Thanks for the reply. I am new to this forum!
Yes Week View appears in the View drop down menu but does not do anything. Day view is ok and month view.
I don't know what Command 2 means!!

COMMAND is the key with the Apple on it. Pressing COMMAND-2 in iCal should take you to the week view...

the com.apple.iCal.plist needs rebuilding

the same thing happened to me yesterday, but in the month view (ironically my first choice of view). somehow the com.apple.iCal.plist has become corrupted and needs to be rebuilt. the file is in your preferences folder, and needs to be removed, causeing iCal to rebuild the file next time it launches.

first quit iCal, remove the file, then restart iCal.

you dont have to delete the file to start with if your not sure, just move it out of the directory (say the desktop) and then when you see the program working just fine with the new plist, delete the old one.

the preferences folder is in your home folder's library.
