Unable to add events to Calendar on iPad

I’m trying to add an event to calenda, but the plus is grayed out. I have a new iPad Pro with the latest iOS. Help is appreciated.

iPad Pro Wi-Fi, iOS 11.2.2

Hi Le-fawne,

This can happen when the internet connection is lost, so you are no longer able to use iCloud.

If you do have a connection, look at Settings, iCloud, does it have your Apple ID showing?

If not, then login.

Tap through iCloud, verify that Calendar is switched on for iCloud.

If not, you could try turning Calendar off, keeping events on the iPad, this should make it a separate item, self contained on the iPad, separate from iCloud, so you can then add an event.

Then later, turn it back on, to get updates from iCloud, if you'd made any changes on your other Apple ID linked devices.

Hope that makes sense.

i am on iPad Pro with latest ISO 11.2.5. I am not able to edit an event on calendar. It is a repeating annually. The event is saved for /to this iPad. I cannot edit the event to save on home/cloud calendar. Then when I try to add a new event on the same day, I get message pop says cannot add event to that event store. This is very odd. I do not have iCloud icon on my settings to edit those settings On iCloud. I have an icon file folder for items saves on cloud files but not other items saved on the iCloud. Least I cannot see or find those photos or ibook items unless in the specific app. I am connected to internet. What is causing my calendar to not work to edit or not add event?
