Is Your Apple iCloud Shared Calendar not Sending An Invite?

In this post, I’ll show you how I got a broken iCloud Shared Calendar shared after I tried everything that Apple support has to say about it. The fix isn’t logical, and that it worked blew my mind 🤯.
But it DID work, so I’m sharing it for others out there that might be so unlucky to experience the same thing.

A good check was to see if your iCloud’s email address (the one that created the shared calendar) is also present on your Contact card.

A Shared Calendar Is Golden 🥇

I’ve been using a shared iCloud calendar with my wife for a couple of years now. Since we are both working and have a lovely but busy life with 3 kids and all sorts of activities, it just wasn’t logical to maintain that paper calendar on the wall at home any more.
