Apple iPod Touch - Alerts

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
iPod touch, but you can’t edit them or create new events.
Subscribe to a calendar:
1 In Settings, choose “Mail, Contacts, Calendars,” then tap Add Account.
2 Choose Other, then choose Add Subscribed Calendar.
3 Enter the server information, then tap Next to verify the subscription.
4 Tap 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 message on iPod touch.
Alerts
Set calendar alerts: In Settings, choose General > Sounds, then turn Calendar Alerts
on. If Calendar Alerts is o when an event is about to occur, iPod touch displays a
message but makes no sound.
Sound alerts for invitations: In Settings, choose “Mail, Contacts, Calendar.” Under
Calendars, tap New Invitation Alert to turn it on.
