I cannot delete a long outdated Zoom invite from my iphone calendar. I can decline one monthly meeting invite at a time, and I have no patience for that. The sender is long gone from her employer so her Zoom account is no longer active.
I do not have this problem on the Outlook calendar on my PC. Just Apple's Calendar. Zoom Support was no help.
Any suggestions?
iPhone 15, iOS 26
Two things come to mind.
First is that when you decline a recurring event, Calendar asks if you want to decline this one or all future ones. Is this not happening when you delete the event? (TBH I haven't tried it, but it seems like a logical thing to do).
Second is that recurring events are tied to the first/original date - for example, there may be an event on January 5th 2020 that repeats every month... you will need to find the original event and delete that, which should remove all the recurring events that follow. The recurring events are just shadows/echoes of the original event, which may be why deleting one doesn't clear them all. Go to the source.
