Only reasons I can think of is that maybe
1) there are 2 widgets – a calendar and a list. Did you perhaps use list for one and calendar for the other? The list doesn’ have month dropdowns be default, but one can force a different list type.
2) one themes css is hiding some fields – maybe the text is same colour as background? View source to see if the html is there. or “inspect element” using web debug tools.
2) maybe something is interfering ?
The plugin itself doesn’t tailor itself to any themes.
The widget is the only one. This is the code that is generated:
<div id="content-sidebar" class="content-sidebar widget-area" role="complementary">
<aside id="amr_icalendar_widget-7" class="widget widget_calendar">
<h1 class="widget-title"></h1>
<div id="events_wrap">
<div class="calendar_navigation">
<form action="http://www.mydomain.com/2014/05/mypage/?listtype=4" method="POST">
<select name="start"> … </select>
<input type="submit" value="»»" title="Go to date"></input>
</form>
<a class="prevmonth" title="Go to April 2014" href="/?start=20140401&months=1" rel="prev"> … </a>
<a class="nextmonth" title="Go to Juni 2014" href="/?start=20140601&months=1" rel="next"> … </a>

</div>
</aside>
The widget is configured as

Somehow, the widget takes the decision for a grouping by month even as it is not requested. Adding the option grouping=year does not have any influence.

Hi mailnov
There are 2 widgets – the plugin provides for 2 – see widgets on left hand side of http://test.icalevents.com/event-widgets/
It appears what you have done is drag in the small calendar widget and then tried to force it to be the list widget by adding list type 4.
Go back to your widgets menu and drag in the “upcoming events list” not the “upcoming events calendar”. See this screenshot

You do not need to specify a list type unless you want to override the middle ‘list’ part of the widget.
Perfect. This was my issue. Thanks for the clarification!
