I don't have a data plan. I have WP10. When I press the search button on the lower right Cortana kicks and I ask a question: 'search for peter in calendar'. Cortana replys that it can't connect to the Internet. So how do I search my phone's calendar without using Cortana? Thanks.
 
Doubt she that clever. It's just a robot. It's programmed to use internet for obvious reasons.
 
You can't. Turning off Cortana may help but it may break functionality entirely. Cortana needs network connectivity to do just about everything unfortunately. You may be able to search in the Calendar app.
 
Really!? The primary reason I am using WP is because of OneNote. I have lots of notes sync'ed to my Windows PC. There is no specific search icon within OneNote and the Calendar in WP. Since I don't use Cortana for security reasons, are you saying that there is no way data in WP can be searched without Cortana and net connectivity? Thanks.
 
I don't think she can search the calendar and other on-phone stuff oddly enough.
