I have a question? I keep my own calendar and my husband his on our separate iPhones. I never really thought about sharing them, and a good reason is he often forgets appointments which I remember and could put in for him if that were possible! I have not used any web calendar, just Outlook and the iPhone and since Outlook is on our home computers, we don't have an exchange server.
Would it be possible to do what I am suggesting? I hear all calendars but, have never attempted to set up more than one. Are we confused yet? I'd like to be able to access his calendar from my phone.

I, too, use Siri to set up an event, though I sometimes need to edit in order to add info to the appointment. Have you worked with multiple calendars? VO won't read the calendar a particular event belongs to, unless you open the event. Nor will it give you a status update when you enable/disable a calendar's visibility. You can make the update, but VO won't tell you whether you're turned the calendar on or off. I really enjoyed your iOS book, by the way. -shelly On Aug 16, 2013, at 10:31 AM, Woody Anna Dresner <[email protected]> wrote: Hi Shelly, I use siri to make appointments when I can because it's faster. I have a calendar that I share with my family, and it works well. I had some trouble setting it up in the first place. I was using the Mac, but I think it would be easier on the phone. But I've found looking at dates and setting appointments to be accessible.

I've finally come face to face with the conundrum of Calendar app. Realizing that it has some um, accessibility challenges, I want to do the following: --point out instances in which VoiceOver just plain won't work properly --list workarounds for VoiceOver inadequacies --suggest alternatives to the Calendar app; both iOS apps, and accessible Web calendar interfaces --make good recommendations about how to manage calendaring, especially if you're using multiple calendars, or need to interact with shared calendars from an employer, or other group. I have worked through the archives here, and have learned a lot. Now I'm looking for any feedback, or especially effective ways you have found to manage your calendar. No need to address all of the questions I've posed above, just tell me what works for you. Feel free to respond on the list, or to me directly.
