Question

How can I create a calendar of a specific type? All calendars created with + calendarWithEventStore: are created with type Local:

EKEventStore *store = [[EKEventStore alloc] init];
EKCalendar *cal = [EKCalendar calendarWithEventStore:store];

Answer 1

You can enumerate over the available types and pull the one you want.

EKCalendar* cal = [EKCalendar calendarWithEventStore: self.eventStore];

EKSource* sourceForType = nil;

for (EKSource* src in self.eventStore.sources)
{
    if (src.sourceType == calType)
    {
        sourceForType = src;
    }
}

cal.source = sourceForType;
