How to get rid of stuck iCal alarm?

[videoflyer]

I've got an iCal alarm window that can't be gotten rid of - I mean...not by any method I know short of restarting the machine. I can move the window around but when I hover the mouse over it to try to close it or otherwise dismiss it all I get is the spinning beachball cursor. Tried relaunching Finder but that didn't do anything.

It's not getting in the way of anything. I can still work in all of my apps, sync my iphone. It's just an annoyance at this point.

What process would I need to kill to get rid of this window and how would I go about doing that?

videoflyer,

Wow, I've never heard of that one before. Strange.

Question... when you go to the Apple menu > Force Quit...

Is iCal available from that menu? Can you select it and force quit the app, and then restart it to see what happens?

Something funny going on there... we'll get to the bottom of it...

Have this rather regularly... by any chance using isolator to have a clean desktop? It's majorly messing with itunes and ical windows for some unexplainable reason...

try to disable any GUI tweaks including spaces and see whether it improves!
