I think it asks that because spreadsheets, unlike other documents, require a

Hi Dawn.
The best language to start learning at this point is swift. Objective C is
probably going to be fazed out within the next few years. A good place to
start is https://developer.apple.com/swift/.
Also, all of the sessions from WWDC 2014 are available to the public on

HI,
Flash installers react better when you just use the tab and space keys, no VO

Again, no one can even use Swift right now; you'll need Xcode 6, or at least a

My first thought is a Workflow; add the New Calendar item to it, configure it,
then just envelope the workflow to add your event. Alternatively, as I know you
do some programming, you might want to investigate making an AppleScript for
the job, to do everything at once.
