Do you mean it's saved in a email account (see the picture) or is it saved as a email?

Thanks to biobunny. What app are you using?

I use Pocket Informant HD and, with that calendar app, you can email a backup file to yourself for safe keeping.

Once you've re-installed the app (from the app store - you don't have to purchase them again) you can re-instate the calendar contents by clicking on a link in the email that contained the backup file you emailed to yourself. That automatically updates your calendar with the contents of the file you emailed to yourself.

OK - you're probably not using that app, but let us know which one you're using and maybe we can help - biobunny seems the expert, so I bow to his/her superior knowledge.

Its saved only as an email.
The app is called yearly calendar
I needed a full year showing at the one time.

I'll wait and see if biobunny is familiar with this particular app.

I tried to use year view express if that's what you were suggesting, and found it complicated to make events never mind restoring it from a backup. If they are only saved as emails (as in emailing it to yourself) then you can only use the copy/paste function within the iPad. Or you could use a PC/Mac to put those emails as events using the build in calendar of the email account (I got my calendar events from Google Calender which only requires a Gmail account) and then putting the online calendar onto the standard calendar app or use any other calendar apps that can use online calendars onto their apps.
