Adding an Email to Existing Calendar Event

hello everyone,

I'm trying to add an email as an attachment to an existing calendar event. Is there a way to do this without creating an event from scratch?

Thank you!

Greetings alon36,


You can learn how to add attachments to a Calendar event on Mac here:


Add notes, a URL, or files to events in Calendar on Mac - Apple Support


"Add notes, a URL, or files to events in Calendar on Mac

You can add notes to events you create—a list of agenda items, for example. If you add a phone number to the notes, people can call it using their iPhone or Mac (if it’s set up to make phone calls). You can also add a URL to the event, and you can attach files, such as a form for an appointment or a document to discuss at a meeting.

  1. In the Calendar app  on your Mac, double-click or force click an event.
  2. Click Add Notes, URL, or Attachments.
  3. Do any of the following:
    • Add notes: Click Add Notes, then enter your note.
    • Add a URL: Click URL, then enter a web address or other URL.
    • Attach a file to an event: Click Attachments, then select a file to attach. You can also drag a file to the event info window.
    • Preview an attached file: Select the file, then press the Space bar.
    • Remove an attached file: Select the file, then press the Delete key."


Take care.

You can add an email address to the Notes field in an existing event - or a new event as you create it.


The email address in the Notes field is a hyperlink; when you open the event and click on the email address it will start an email to that address.


If you want to add an email itself to a calendar event, first print it to your Mac's desktop as a pdf, then you can drag it to the Attachments field or click on the Attachments field label to select the file wherever you have saved it.
