When you go to the sharing properties it'll show you if they've accepted the share and are subscribing. How do I know that that other person has even looked at the calendar even once? (aside from asking them in person)

When you invite someone it sends them an email with instructions

Not clear how well the published calendar works with PC users. iCloud-> ' Push' seems to be fastest.Īs per Q3, above, it seems that you still have to ask the person if they've accepted the invite and looked at a calendar entry. In " Settings-> Mail, Contacts, Calendars-> Fetch New Data" you can setup what to do. Go to the receiving person's iPad Settings-> Notifications -> Calendar to get Badges and Alerts set to 'on' This would be similar to push notifications. If you have a falling out or otherwise part ways with your friend, you can easily 'unpublish' your calendar (or even just stop updating it) from within the iCloud website.įor extra credit, try to see if you can get the receiving device to 'ping' in response to new calendar entries. If you are having trouble still, check that their Settings-> Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> iCloud is set to swap Calendars with the iCloud.It wouldn't hurt to have them try to add a calendar entry in a reciprocal manner to the same Calendar to see if you can see it.Make sure that the 'visibility' of your calendar is toggled 'ON' with a check in the box appearing at the brown top margin on the left by clicking.Open their email, and if necessary, check the Trash or Spam folders to find your invitation.On your friends side, they should perform the following steps: It doesn't mean that anybody has actually looked at the calendar. This icon means the calendar has been made available.

When Apple's 'iCloud' makes the Calendar available for sharing, a Green Icon appears just to the right of the name of the Calendar. Ask your friend to check visibility of new entry on iPad Check that you are able to get 'cc:'d on that outgoing email that 'invites' the other to join in sharing ĩ. The email does not necessarily have to be coupled to an Apple Account/ID.ħ.

Make sure you have Calendar set for sharing in the System Preferences > Mail Contacts & Calendars > iCloud.
