Kontact is a wrapper for all the kde-pim modules, kmail, kaddressbook, 
korganizer and so on.  They all can be run separately, so it's quite possible 
you are only running korganizer.

I meant that in a terminal you should issue the command "killall kontact", but 
if you are using korganizer as a standalone application, instead issues 
"killall korganizer" and see if that does it.

So much depends upon which version of everything is running.  Let's start with 
knowing which version of Fedora and which version of KOrganizer you are 
running.

Then, try starting korganizer from a terminal and see what happens.  You may 
see a huge amount of information scrolling by.  Let it finish, the copy it and 
paste into a text file.  Paste the text file into http://fpaste.org/ and then 
add the link it gives you to this thread.  There's a better chance then of 
seeing what is actually happening.
