= Calendars =Each Amahi server The HDA has a calendar Calendar server ([http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WebDAV WebDAV]) enabled by default in itAmahi 6 (Ubuntu 12. It is meant to share calendars among the people with access the server04.x).
To publish or subscribe to a calendarThis capability is currently broken in Amahi 7 ([https://bugs.amahi.org/issues/1339 Amahi bug 1339]) and greater. For Amahi 7 (Fedora 19) and future Amahi releases, you will need two thingsto install the Amahi [https://www.amahi.org/apps/calendar Calendar] application.
# The publishing location Using client software you can publish and also subscribe to published calendars on your HDA. To publish or URLsubscribe to a calendar in this server, <nowiki>httpyou need://calendar/</nowiki>, followed by the calendar name of your choice, such as Home, John, Kids, etc.
# A client calendar program
# The publishing location or URL
# The calendar name of your choice, typically Home, John, etc.
IMPORTANT: Only one calendar publisher is supported per calendar today.
In addition, you can also install a "client" application to browse calendars in your HDA, like [http://www.amahi.org/apps/icalendar iCalendar] Calendars can be created with widely available clients such as:* [http://www.apple.com/macosx/features/ical/ Apple iCal] for Mac OS X.* [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mozilla_Sunbird Sunbird] ([[Mozilla_Sunbird|Tutorial]])* [http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/projects/calendar/ Thunderbird - Lightning Calendar]* [http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/outlook/ MS Outlook]* [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Calendar Windows Calendar] for Windows Vista.* [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chandler_%28software%29 Chandler]* ... and many others.  Technically, the HDA has a WebDAV server, commonly used for sharing online calendars and other files. <u>IMPORTANT:</u> Only one calendar publisher is supported per calendar. '''NEWNOTE:''' [[OutlookSync|Outlook synchronization support!]]Some clients may require that the name have the ical extension, e.g. Home.ics; you may need to experiment.
== Publishing URL ==
The publishing URL for the calendar is
 
<u>Fedora</u><br />
<nowiki>http://ical/<CalendarName></nowiki>.
The publishing URL for the <u>Ubuntu</u><br /><nowiki>http://calendar is/<CalendarName></nowiki>.  If that fails to work, try: <u>Fedora</u><br /><nowiki> http://calendarical.yourdomain.com/<CalendarName></nowiki>.  <u>Ubuntu</u><br /><nowiki>http://calendar.yourdomain.com/</nowiki>.
The <nowiki><CalendarName></nowiki> part maybe Home, or Home.ics (try this last one first).
Some clients, notably Sunbird, require that the name of the calendar have the ical extension (which is '''.ics'''), e.g. Home.ics. You may need to experiment with this until it works. If you calendar client asks for a username and password, use your normal login details. Please add your experiences in this page.
Names with spaces are supported.
 
== Accessing the Calendar ==
We have one application called [http://www.amahi.org/apps/icalendar iCalendar] that needs to be installed if you want to browse calendars in your hda via a web interface. Please note that this app is a '''read only''' client. It cannot create calendar entries.
 
The url for accessing the calendar is:
 
<nowiki>http://icalendar</nowiki>
 
The url for setting the calendar preferences page is:
 
<nowiki>http://icalendar/preferences.php</nowiki>
== Calendar Clients ==
