how to transfer all events from one calendar to another

Hi, everyone.


At my school, we have an iPad system where every student is provided with an iPad mini 2 for educational purposes. Our school accounts are also linked to our time tables so when we log into our emails, it creates a new calendar with all of our lessons in it. Unfortunately, this new calendar is not counted as an iCloud calendar and so it isn't backed up or accessible anywhere else. I was hoping someone would be able to inform me on how I could move all of the events from my timetable calendar to one of my iCloud calendars without having to click on each individual event and change the calendar.


Thanks in advance,

Matty

  1. Create a new empty iCloud calendar from Calendar ➔ New Calendar ➔ iCloud
  2. To copy a calendar, click on it from the menu that appears when you select the calendar button (top left corner of Calendar) to highlight it and choose Calendar ➔ File ➔ Export ➔ Export (export it to your desktop for ease)
  3. Double click the exported file and choose the new empty iCloud calendar to import them into.
  4. Ctrl-click on the original calendar from the menu that appears when you select the calendar button and choose delete.
  5. Repeat for each calendar.
