Using Shared Calendars (Sync iCal Calendars)

Since iRecordMusic schedules are simply calendars in iCal, it is easy to share your schedules with your friends. With iCal, you are able to publish your calendars online (if you have a .Mac account), and subscribe to online calendars. There are some sample calendars online at www.irecordmusic.net, and you can send us your calendars for inclusion.

In order to use other calendars, you could manually copy the events into your iRecordMusic calendar, or you could use the menu option "Sync with iCal calendars...".

Sync with iCal Calendars

Select which calendars you want to merge into your existing iRecordMusic calendar.

This option allows you to merge recording events from other calendars into your iRecordMusic calendar.

You also have the option to delete all current events in the recording calendar. Thus you can replace all the recording events in your iRecordMusic calendar, with the recording events from other calendars.

[Tip]Tip
As iRecordMusic is the active recording calendar, you can create a calendar for each of your favourite shows. Using the sync feature, you can pick and choose which of these shows should be recorded or not.
