Can someone suggest how to use the Calendar module with OP? I've seen a number of screencasts and they all revolve around creating a content type of "event", but OP already reserves that machine name. How do I create events and then display them on the Calendar?

Just create a new content
Just create a new content type called calender or something else, doesn't really matter what :)
The clone the calendar standard view and name it something else. Keep the original calendar disabled.
Set the content type to view as what you called the content type.
Here's my implementation of calendar within op :) http://www.altior.nl/op_calendar.png

Create a content type called (for example) "calendaritem".
Clone the calendar view
Name it to what you want (let's say ithacal)
In the view set the filters to:
Node: Published -> Yes
Node: Type -> calendaritem
Under "Fields" set the following:
Node: Title
Content: Data - Startdate
You then get the calendar I have :0

I keep running into the problem of events listed on the calendar based on the date the node was created, rather than when the event itself starts.
My cloned calendar has this argument: Date: Date (node) Node: Updated date
As for "Fields" I could not find Content: Data - Startdate. I used Content: Event Date - From date
When I change the "Arguments" to Date: Date (node) Content: Date (field_date) - From date
I get this error:
The date argument date fields must be added to this query. You can exclude them if you do not want them displayed in the calendar.
for this, do the
for this, do the following:
In your view go to "Arguments". And select add
For Arguments, choose "Date", "Date:Node" and then "Ok"
After that, choose "Provide default argument", "Current Date" and for "Date fields", choose "Node updated date".
That should be your setting
