looked into it. On startup (korganizer&) I see the following:

  korganizer(4880)/kdepimlibs (kpimidentities) KPIMIdentities::IdentityManager::readConfig: IdentityManager: There was no default identity. Marking first one as default. 
  korganizer(4880)/kdepimlibs (kpimidentities) KPIMIdentities::IdentityManager::readConfig: IdentityManager: There was no default identity. Marking first one as default. 
  korganizer(4880)/kdecore (trader) KServiceTypeTrader::defaultOffers: KServiceTypeTrader: serviceType  "KOrganizer/Part"  not found 

Settings/Configure Korganizer/Calendars shows several available
calendars with a green dot ready, those come from 
~/.kde/share/apps/kalarm/{calendar.ics,displaying.ics,expired.ics,template.ics}

The dates contained in those are not displayed but are displayed and work
in kalarm.

When creating an event neither of this calendars is available and
no event can be created, in console I see the messages
  korganizer(4880)/kdepimlibs (kpimidentities) KPIMIdentities::IdentityManager::readConfig: IdentityManager: There was no default identity. Marking first one as default. 
  korganizer(4880) IncidenceEditorNG::ConflictResolver::findAllFreeSlots: free slot calculation: invalid range. range(  0 ) / mSlotResolutionSeconds( 900 ) =  0 

After I create a new calendar backed by a local file new events can
be created in this new calendar. Also using a google account works.

So while I have good workarounds the original problem is unsolved
- I had events shared between kalarm and korganizer. 
Is the ''"KOrganizer/Part"  not found'' message related to this?
