 * When attempting to add a new event I receive the error:
 * “Error: New Event “NAMEOFTHEEVENT” could not be added.”
 * I’ve tried deactivating and uninstalling the plugin and readding but didn’t work.
   
   Anything I can do to investigate why this happens?

 * I think this is a problem with the date format.
    See [this thread](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/unknown-error-7?replies=11#post-5131633)

 * THe only error is that it couldn’t be added.
    The date seems right on the screen
   so I’m not sure.

 * is your admin localized – in another language?
    try changing that to default (
   english), the date will then adapt to default notation

 * I’m not sure this is date related. Is there a log I could look at to show this
   or something?
    My wordpress is all in english by default.

 * There is no log available. Also the error messages are really bad yet. I think
   I have to improve them soon to help people with problems like you have it.
