One of my calendars will not keep to the color I change it to and then loses its position in the calendar list (at the left of the screen),

My "Main" calender is my primary calendar and is the first at the top of the calendar list. I have been trying to change its color from red to another color, but after several attempts it will revert back to the original red and also drop down from the top to the bottom of the calender list. I have however tested changing the color of two other of my eight calendars and this particular issue is not occurring with them. The color has not involuntarily changed nor its position.

So here's what happens:

I go into the "Get Info" menu of my "Main" calendar and change the color of the box from red to, for example, purple. (I've done this a number of times trying all kinds of colors.) The entries in the calendar, tasks and little box on the left to the "Main" in the list do turn to purple. But a few minutes later, in a blink of the eye, everything will change color back to red and the calendar falls to the bottom of the list without my doing anything.

Also, when the calendar is in the "new" color, ie. purple for those few minutes, I'll check things out by going into the "Get Info" menu of the "Main" calendar and strangely the box that shows the color of the calendar is registering red, even though the calender is still, for the moment, appearing in purple.

Over the years I've changed the colors of my calendars and never had this issue. I think it's really strange this is happening with only one of mine and it's the one with most of my events, appointments and tasks.

Any ideas/suggestions appreciated.

Thanks

Just to add another quirk now as I continue to fiddle with this iCal color change issue. I again changed the color from red to purple in the Main calendar. This time the new color is sticking. The calendar events, appts. and to do's are showing up in purple until I click on any to edit or look at the details, then they turn back to red. I clicked on several and one by one watched the color change.

So now the calendar is appearing in two colors-purple and red.

And. . .the little checkbox next to the calendar name however is showing red.

So am I.
