Subscribing to Calendars

You can subscribe to calendars that use the iCalendar (.ics) format. Many calendar-based services support calendar subscriptions, including Yahoo!, Google, and the Mac OS X iCal application.

Subscribed calendars are read-only. You can read events from subscribed calendars on iPhone, but you can’t edit them or create new events.

Subscribe to a calendar:

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

2Choose Other, then choose Add Subscribed Calendar.

3Enter the server information, then tap Next to verify the subscription.

4Tap Save.

You can also subscribe to an iCal (or other .ics) calendar published on the web by tapping a link to the calendar you receive in an email or text message on iPhone.

Importing Calendar Files from Mail

You can add events to a calendar by importing a calendar file from an email message. You can import any standard .ics calendar file.

Import events from a calendar file: In Mail, open the message and tap the calendar file. When the list of events appears, tap Add All, choose the calendar you want to add the events to, and tap Done.

Alerts

Set calendar alerts: In Settings, choose Sounds, then turn Calendar Alerts on. If Calendar Alerts is off when an event is about to occur, iPhone displays a message but makes no sound.

Important: If the Ring/Silent switch is off, calendar alerts won’t sound.

Sound alerts for invitations: In Settings, choose “Mail, Contacts, Calendar.” Under Calendars, tap New Invitation Alert to turn it on.
