Use iCal's search feature to locate any event in any calendar.

To search for an event

1.

In the text entry field at the bottom of the calendar, type a keyword or phrase. All possible matches to your text entry will appear in the Search Results pane. The list of possible matches is narrowed as you continue to type.

2.

When you finish typing, click the item you want. iCal shows the selected item in the Calendar View pane.

To open the Info drawer for a found item, double-click the item in the Search Results pane. Or double-click the title bar of the found event in the calendar grid of the main View pane.

To change the information for an event, double-click the text in the event item, then type your changes. Or click an event to select it, then click the Show Info button to open the Info drawer. Make changes to the text in the drawer, then press Return.

Search by category

Narrow your search by choosing a specific category. Click the small triangle (shown on the right) next to the magnifying glass in the Search field to open a pop-up menu of options (shown below). Select the category you want to use, then type a keyword in the Search field.

Booda.

The example below shows a search for "Booda" (I can't remember when Booda's vet appointment was scheduled). iCal found the information as a To Do item, indicated by the pushpin in the "Type" column of the Search Results pane. A double click on the search result opens the Info drawer and shows all available information.
