Yahoo Calendar gets over-the-air iPhone syncing

Filed under: , , ,

If you're willing to give Yahoo Calendar 2.0 Beta a try, you can now sync your Yahoo Calendar with the Calendar app on your iPhone. It doesn't require a separate app download or anything like that, just a quick and painless setup procedure. This is actual over-the-air syncing, with no need for plugging in and syncing with iCal on your desktop, and it helps Yahoo catch up to Google Calendar as a viable alternative for iPhone users.

Just go to "Mail, Contacts, Calendars" in your iPhone's settings, Go to "add account," "other," and then pick "CalDav account." Enter "yahoo" as the server, and put in your Yahoo username and password. Save and quit, and the next time you open your iPhone Calendar app, you should be prompted to pick which Yahoo calendar layer you want to use. Be aware that doing this upgrades you to Yahoo Calendar 2.0 Beta, and you can't downgrade again afterward.
