Adding Events to Other Calendars

One of the great features in Yahoo! Calendar is that you can have calendar layers and shared calendars. Calendar layers provide a way to organize your events into meaningful and manageable groups, and shared calendars let you and your friends keep up to date with each other. A shared calendar can be view only or editable so that you and your friends can edit the same calendar. You share your calendars and subscribe to calendars shared by others. Learn more

You can have calendar layers and shared calendars.

It’s easy to add events to a calendar layer or an editable, shared calendar.

 

Here’s How

  1. Make sure your calendars are visible by clicking the calendars and search icon (Show calendars and search).

    Click the calendars and search icon.

  2. Be sure the calendar is visible by checking its box on the left of the page.

    Check the calendar to make it visible.

  3. While adding the event in either the mini editor (remind me how) or the full editor (remind me how), select the calendar from the Calendar pull-down list.

    Select a calendar in the mini editor.Select a calendar in the full editor.

    Tip: If you don’t see a calendar listed, you’ve either not made it visible as described in Step 1 or it’s a view-only calendar (calendars you subscribe to). You can’t add events to view-only calendars.

  4. Click the Save button to save the event in your selected calendar.

 

What’s Next

Adding and editing events in a shared calendar guarantees that you’re in sync with your friend’s plans.
