Searching Calendars
You can search the titles, invitees, and locations of the events in your calendars.
Calendar searches the calendar or calendars you’re currently viewing.
Search for events: Enter text in the search field.
Search results appear as you type. Tap a result to view the event. Tap the calendar to
close the list of search 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 iCal on the Mac, support both
formats.
Subscribed calendars are read-only. You can read events from subscribed calendars
on iPad, but you 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 Mac when you download them.
You can also subscribe to an iCal (or other .ics) calendar published on the web,
by tapping a calendar link you receive in an email message on iPad.
