I was lurking the thread when I saw your post. I gave it a try and it worked perfectly. IP 4 with iOS 5.

Thanks Dave, we are with the same setup. I just want somebody else to certified that works.

Just tried it, it works but unfortunately only for US Holidays, I have changed US to AU and got nothing. I am not sure if there is a different setting for Australia.

Forgot to mention it worked fine for me. after beating my head against the wall, the steering wheel and serious consideration of rinsing my mouth out with buckshot, the clouds parted and I was shown the path from someone much more aligned with the iPhone gods than I.

HELLO, I'm not sure if you still need help, just in case...
The first time I tried entering the calendar link I received the same error. "Unable To Verify Acct".

You probably did what I did, I entered the text string using lower case letters, as soon as I Capitalized the letters that were capitalized in the original post it worked perfectly.
