iPhone Calendar Search not working iOS 17.0.2

Updated my 15pro to 17.0.2 and I can no longer search in the calendar app. No matter what I search for, it comes up with “no results”


My calendar has successfully transferred all appointments, but nothing will come up in a search

I managed to fix from this answer. Might help for you also


“I was just on the phone with Apple support about this same issue and here is the fix that they gave me that worked: Settings>Mail>Account (select the correct account)>Calendar


then toggle OFF calendar. It asks if you want to delete the account and you accept. After about a minute, toggle it back on, and the calendar entries will start repopulating, and the search function will start working. Depending on how many calendar entries you have, it will take a while to update, but I have thousands and it updated in less than one hour. Search function works again.”

I was having the exact same issue with a new iPhone 15 Pro Max running iOS 17.0.2. This is what worked for me:


Settings>Calendar>Accounts (select the account with the calendar you are having issues searching. I chose iCloud)>iCloud>under Apps Using iCloud select Show All>Select iCloud Calendar>Toggle off Use on This iPhone>Select Delete from my iPhone>Wait 1 minute then toggle back on. Calendars will come back from your iCloud. Give it some time and search will begin working again.

I have tried this. Step by step. What is ‘some time’? I’ve already waited an hour. Nothing for the last 2 yrs is coming up and I still haven’t figured out how to log out of my calendar and back in. It’s frustrating as I don’t have these appts written anywhere else and as one might assume they are pretty important and not just checkups. :( I’m too old for this nonsense. It hasn’t worked for days. Thx for reaching out, you’re very nice.

I appreciate everyone’s help. Nothing has worked. About 6 appts showed up in a search yet there are at least 2 per month there. It’s been 7 hrs since I followed the instructions exactly. Does Apple still have a Genius Bar or any in person assistance… this a real inconvenience because it’s how I schedule my medical appointments and track certain medical events?
