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:

1In Settings, choose “Mail, Contacts, Calendars,” then tap Add Account.

2Choose Other, then choose either Add CalDAV Account or Add Subscribed Calendar.

3Enter your account information, then tap Next to verify the account.

4Tap 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 /www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/calendars.
