If you’ve never installed this fix before then please read the detailed installation instructions found over here. If you’re upgrading from a previous version please read the detailed upgrade notes below.

Upgrading from version 1.1

1. Delete the folder /Applications/iCalFix/ in Finder.

2. Download this Upgrade Script to your computer and extract the contents from the ZIP file. The folder contains a Shell script (install.sh) which sets everything up for you.
