Searching calendars
In List view, you can search the titles, invitees, locations, and notes fields of the events in your
calendars. Calendar searches the events for the calendars you’re currently viewing.
Search for events: Tap List, then enter text in the search field.
Calendar events can also be included in searches from the Home screen. See “Searching” on
page 32.
Subscribing to calendars
You can subscribe to calendars that use the iCalendar (.ics) format. Many calendar-based services
support calendar subscriptions, including iCloud, Yahoo!, Google, and the iCal application in OS X.
Subscribed calendars are read-only. You can read events from subscribed calendars on iPad, but
you can’t edit them or create new events.
Subscribe to a calendar: Go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars, then tap Add Account. Tap
Other, then tap Add Subscribed Calendar.
You can also subscribe to an iCal (or other .ics) calendar published on the web by tapping a link to
the calendar.
Importing calendar events 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.
Syncing calendars
You can sync Calendar in these ways:
 In iTunes: Use the device settings panes to sync with iCal or Microsoft Entourage on a Mac, or
with Microsoft Outlook 2003, 2007, or 2010 on a PC, when you connect iPad to your computer.
 In Settings: Turn on Calendars in your iCloud, Microsoft Exchange, Google, or Yahoo! accounts
to sync your calendar information over the Internet, or to set up a CalDAV account if your
company or organization supports it. See “Setting up mail and other accounts” on page 18.
