The calendar is putting the wrong home address on events. How do I change that?

Hello dalew626,


Thanks for asking the Apple Support Communities for help with your address. This is usually pulled from your info card on your device. To check the address is correct there, open Contacts and select your name at the top.


Once there, verify your address is correct. If not, you can tap the "Edit" in the top right.


If your address there is already correct, or you add your correct address there but it is still incorrect when you add events in Calendar, it's possible this info is pulling from the default calendar account you have set on your device. This article will help you check which account is set as your default, under the section titled "Set iCloud Contacts, Calendars, or Reminders as your default": Get help using iCloud Contacts, Calendars, or Reminders


You can go to the account and correct your address there, or set iCloud as your default. Prior to changing the default account, please make a backup of your data. You can make a backup in iCloud or iTunes using this article: How to back up your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch


Thanks and have a wonderful day.
