Create multiple alarms per event in iCal
Authored by: osxpounder on Jan 26, '04 01:12:41PM

I seem to recall that iCal used to fire off alarms whether I had started it recently or not -- I could be wrong, since I used it so often anyway.

Lately, I've been wondering what'll happen if iCal tries to play an alarm, especially one that requires playing a sound recording of my own, while I'm capturing video. I wish there was a global way to tell OSX not to interrupt me, temporarily, whether it's iCal, Software Update, or any other program -- just some way to prevent scheduled events or popups of any kind *while certain apps are running*. In my case, that'd be while Final Cut is running, or iMovie, or Compressor or APack [both of these last two have crashed or failed to compress files unless I closed down other apps -- that made the probs go away].
