eventkit

Hitting a very strange issue here, which seems to me to be an issue with the EventKit API and I just want to check it's nothing I'm doing. Test case 1: Reminders are enabled in Privacy for the app The device has an iCloud account, but it's set to not sync reminders I can create a local reminders list in the 'Reminders' app from Apple ISSUE - Trying to create a new calendar of entity type EKEntityTypeReminder with a source of type EKSourceTypeLocal fails Test case 2: Reminders are enabled in Privacy for the app The device has no iCloud account I can create a local reminders list in the

I have an app that programmatically adds reminders to your iOS device's calendar. Previous to iOS 5, I could add a calendar item with two alarms thusly: EKEventStore* eventStore = [[EKEventStore alloc] init]; EKEvent* event = [EKEvent eventWithEventStore:eventStore]; // set startDate, endDate, title, location, etc. [event addAlarm:[EKAlarm alarmWithRelativeOffset:60.0f * -5.0f]]; // 5 min [event addAlarm:[EKAlarm alarmWithRelativeOffset:60.0f * -15.0f]]; // 15 min [event setCalendar:[eventStore defaultCalendarForNewEvents]]; NSError* error = nil; BOOL success = [eventStore saveEvent:event span

In the EKParticipant Class reference, " Send attendees to an EKEvent object to get an array of EKParticipant objects. " OK, buy how can I send attendees to an EKEvent object?

Unfortunately that attendees property is read-only and the ways that these EKParticipant 's come into existence is omitted from the reference. It has lead me to believe that the only way to create new participants, is by using the

I would like to find the first EKSource of type EKSourceType.Local with a "single"-line expression in Swift. Here is what I currently have: let eventSourceForLocal = eventStore.sources[eventStore.sources.map({ $0.sourceType }) .indexOf(EKSourceType.Local)!] Is there a better way of doing this (such as without mapping and/or with a generic version of find )? There's a version of indexOf that takes a predicate closure - use it to find the index of the first local source (if it exists), and then use that index on eventStore.sources : if let index = eventStore.sources.indexOf({ $0.sourceType ==
