[DM-MUG] Is there any way to totally delete everything ref iCall off my computer?

[Victoria L. Herring]

I thought I'd update - I think I'll have to wipe and start fresh on 
the MacPro - my calendar on my MacBookPro is fine, thank goodness.

I figured this out yesterday = I unhooked the MP from ethernet 
access, turned off syncing, unmounted the other 3 drives plus the 
TimeMachine drive - basically totally secured the MP alone to work 
with.

Deleted all Calendars in AppSupport and the plists.  Restarted.  Back 
came the Zombie Calendar [an iCal from 2006-07 era apparently] - as I 
explained to another list =


What happened was that there was one entry which I deleted = and it
automatically reappeared. Several times. Then I disabled syncing,
emptied all the calendars in iCal on the MacPro and deleted all
preferences [and trashed them]...opened iCal and poof, the old Zombie
Calendars came back.

I then unpublished them [several had the little publishing icon] and
deleted them and they came back on their own, unbidden. I discovered
an old Library in my Shared folder and deleted and emptied
trash...unnetworked the computer entirely, deleted all Calendars and
prefs, trashed everything and restated -- Zombie Calendars came back
[I did not start or open iCal = I went to the Library and found all
the 'old' calendars back in there and the prefs back in there.

Disconnected TimeMachine drive, all other internal drives and deleted
Calendars and plists - and the Calendars came back! Truly a Zombie.

There is absolutely no way to get rid of the Zombie Calendar short of
creating a new user [I have a Test user who doesn't have this
Calendar because it doesn't have any entries anyway! and when I tried 
to import a good iCalArchive I had to it, it would not restore from 
that archive] or I guess
reinstalling OSX and maybe not using Migration Assistant, which will
be a MAJOR pain.....
