How to fix iCal (and other applications in Mac)?
如何修復 iCal 的問題(和其他 Mac 的程式問題)?
I have a strange problem in my iCal these day. It don't how to save my alarm preference. Supposed it will give you a list of alarm setting that you have set before.
Actually this is a general technique to deal with most Mac OS X problem.
Open the finder, go to your Home Folder. There should be a shortcut with your name in the PLACES category on Finder left hand side. Then go into Library > Preference. Here is the place storing preference setting of most of the applications in your Mac. Find out the preference file by its filename, e.g. I am looking for iCal related file this time. You may simply use the Spotlight search function in your Finder upper right corner. When you get the file(s), simply delete them. Restart your application, and it should be fixed. :)
With this method, your application preference is deleted. It is a good practice that you backup the file(s) before you delete it (them). You may just simply move it to somewhere and see can the problem be fixed. You can restore it if you have any problem to set up your application again.
這幾天 iCal 出了點問題,無論怎樣也不能存起我的響鬧設定。本來 iCal 會將以為用過的響鬧設定記下來。
解決方法很簡單,也應該是絕大部份 Mac 應用程式的普通解決方法。
打開 Finder,先開啟你的 Home Folder,在 Finder 左方 PLACES 分類下應該有一個以你為名的捷徑。再找出 Library > Preference。這裏存放了你 Mac 中大部份程式的設定檔。按檔案名稱找出你想要的設定檔,例如我今次要找出 iCal,你亦可以使用 Finder 右上方的 Spotlight 搜尋功能。找到後,把設定檔移除,重新啟動你的程式,問題就應該能解決。
這個方法會將你程式的所有設定一併移除。建議你先將設定檔備份,你可以先將設定檔移至其他地方,看看能否解決問題。假若你忘記了怎樣設定你的程式,你還可以將整個設定還原。
