Ever since I upgraded to the new OS X Yosemite, I have not been able to click on the date to see the calendar. I used to be able to just click on the date and have a snapshot of the month or year when setting up appointments in email. Now I have to actually load the whole calendar. Is there a way I can go back to that system without downloading a third party app? It was so much easier and faster.
Got a tip for us?

Calendar in Menu Bar of OS X Yosemite

The menu bar. At the very top of the screen where your wifi and battery status icons are.
I don't recall ever having a calendar option for the stock date/time menu bar item, at least in Mavericks (was traveling just before Yosemite, so, was adjusting timezones via menu bar date/time item, never saw/got anything relating to calendars).
So, guessing you have/had some app installed that did such a thing. Either no longer works or no longer there.
For example, Fantastical, though no time, puts the calendar in the menu bar. But costs $$. There was a free app, Day-O, but the developer dropped support for it because he does not like Yosemite's look and is still using Mavericks.
ADD: what I do, I have Calendar as part of my Login Items, and have it set to "Hide", so, have the launch/load hit at login, "instant" access from the dock from then on.
