Searching Calendars
You can search the titles, invitees, and locations of the events in your calendars.
Calendar searches the calendar you’re currently viewing, or all calendars if you’re
viewing them all.
Search events: In list view, enter text in the search field.
Search results appear automatically as you type. Tap Search to dismiss the keyboard
and see more results.
Subscribing to and Sharing Calendars
You can subscribe to calendars that use the CalDAV or iCalendar (.ics) formats. Many
calendar-based services, including Yahoo!, Google, and the Mac OS X iCal application,
support either format.
Subscribed calendars are read only. You can read events from subscribed calendars on
iPhone, but can’t edit them or create new events. You also can’t accept invitations from
CalDAV accounts.
Subscribe to a CalDAV or .ics calendar:
1
In Settings, choose “Mail, Contacts, Calendars,” then tap Add Account.
2
Choose Other, then choose either Add CalDAV Account or Add Subscribed Calendar.
3
Enter your account information, then tap Next to verify the account.
4
Tap Save.
Apple provides links to a number of free iCal calendars—for national holidays or
sports events, for example—that you may want to subscribe to. The calendars are
automatically added to iCal on your desktop when you download them. You can
then sync them to iPhone as described in “Subscribing to and Sharing Calendars” on
page 93. Go to
