Mountain Lion Fixes Calendar

Body

Hallelujah. The forthcoming version of OS X Mountain Lion restores the dedicated calendars sidebar at the left side of the window, along with the miniature months view that I find so useful.

Mountain Lion Calendar

Apple removed that sidebar with Mac OS X Lion, a decision that I lamented in this blog post. After using Lion for months, I can say that that omission remains my single biggest complaint about 10.7. Thank goodness it’s coming back.

Macworld has more about OS X Mountain Lion’s updates to the contacts and calendar apps.

Our company runs Lion and one Snow Leopard that we didn’t bother to upgrade. Besides the Launchpad and expose features, there doesn’t seem a whole lot of difference and Snow Leopard does have the separate calendar options in iCal.

Unfortunately the interface still looks like a fake mildly distressed leather and paper calendar.
