Modifying OSX calendar DB #1

Thanks for the article. While exploring the possibilities, I noticed that you mentioned the "Write-Ahead Logging". With "DBbrowser for SQLite.app" I cannot access the 2 files "Calendar Cache-wal" and "Calendar Cache-shm", while reading the Calendar cache is fine. Any cue on this? How safe is to write to the Calendar cache file?

Hi @trevixdesign, in fact I was using a trial of this tool: https://menial.co.uk/base/ - hope it will still work for you.

Base.app cannot read Calendar Cache-shm or Calendar Cache-wal. Just the Calendar Cache file, like DB Browser for SQLite (which I prefer). The Calendar.app is very confusing, in trying to understand how it works.

Sorry to hear that, however I'm by no way a Calendar.app specialist and I'm afraid I won't be able to help.
