How to Make a Schedule on a Mac
Mac users can create a schedule using the iCal application included with the Mac OS X operating system. The iCal application features the ability to create separate calendars and determine which ones you view at a given time. You can create a daily, weekly or monthly schedule, with the option of a to do list on a side panel. Your iCal schedule can remain on your computer, or you can print it out.
