This happens because the Calendar application hasn't been updated to
use a CSRF token in its forms and XWiki expects that by default. You
have two choices:

1) If you have a bit of a dev skill (or if you convince someone to do
it for you), add the CSRF token to the HTML forms like this:

<input name="form_token" value="$!services.csrf.token" type="hidden" />

2) Disable the http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-site_request_forgery
protection from xwiki.properties file.

Hope this helps,
Marius
