Subscription to webcal event in iOS Safari not working but works on OSX

I have exported an event in the .ics format from iCal and linked to the file from an event site i am creating.

When i navigate the link in Chrome on my MacBook it correctly opens iCal and subscribes to the event.

However when i navigate to the same page in iPhone Safari and navigate the link it retrieves an error where it says it cannot subscribe to the calendar.

Am unsure as to why it is working in one and not the other:

http://tfma2012.valtechdigital.co.uk/

The calendar location is as follows:

webcal://tfma2012.valtechdigital.co.uk/calendar/TFMA.ics
Solution

  • Instead of using "webcal://" as the address, simply use "http://"; it worked perfectly for me on both my Mac and iPhone when I tried that.
