Is it possible I cannot clear an iCal recurrence once set ?

TIA

That appears to be the case with iCals 1.5.5 and 2.0.5. How strange. :confused:

The only work-rounds I can suggest would be either to replace the event entirely ” which would also change the uid, etc. ” or to modify the recurrence so that the event only occurs once. With the latter option, it would still be a recurring event, but would behave like a non-recurring one. :confused:

tell application "iCal"
	set rec to myEvent's recurrence
	if (rec begins with ":") then set rec to text 2 thru -1 of rec -- Bug in v1.5.5.
	set myEvent's recurrence to rec & ";COUNT=1"
end tell
