Saving data to to devices calendar - jquery-mobile

I am using query mobile, and phonegap to create an app. Within the app I am building a basic list which holds dates and associated information. I want the user to be able to click the list item and for the data to be saved to their own calendar.
I have searched online, and can't seem to find anything relating. Can anyone help push me in the right direction?
Thanks in advance...

Phonegap does not expose an API to access the device calendar.But I think you can create a phone gap plugin for this purpose.I am not sure about the feasibility of this.May be this link will give you more information.

Try this Android Calendar access plugin for PhoneGap : https://github.com/phonegap/phonegap-plugins/tree/master/iPhone/CalendarPlugin

iOS app trouble storing user's documents/photos anywhere other than the phone

I'm trying to find a way of letting a user store their photos/documents online for my app. They can upload these to the app after registering an email and they remain on the phone even when the user logs out and then in again. However if the user deletes the app, downloads it again (the developers are using TestFlight at the moment), and logs in, any photo or document that the user saved before deleting has vanished.
I've been told that the data hasn't been stored on the Kinvey SDK service that we have been using as it takes a while to upload the data and then was told the app would be better suited on Kinvey REST API as the SDK version doesn't support background mode which supposedly would help store the data quicker (but this still wouldn't be 100% sure the photos/documents would be stored)
I'm not a developer/coder so I'm afraid I don't know much technically but my app needs to be able to have access across devices for the user's photos and documents, if these are 'lost' it would be catastrophic.
Please could someone help me if there a way of doing this?
Thank you.
Well If you want to save pictures or data that do not get deleted here are few options.
Save them iPhone,iPad gallery if not the use REST API
"Kinvey" can be used for that.
The alternative of "Kinvey", Kindly look into this.

Generate song suggestions (auto-complete)

I'm developing an app and I want a user to be able to start typing a song name/artist/whatever and then have a list/drop-down show suggestions on the fly depending on what the user typed (preferably as the user is typing).
I was thinking I would need to use some sort of API which queried the iTunes database for songs available for purchase (or any other large database with song information), but I'm open to using any other source.
Does anybody know of an API I can look into or a framework I can use. I don't need a solution in code or anything, I'm simply asking for a nod in the right direction.
Let me know if you need anymore information. Thanks.
Apple exposes a search API for the iTunes Store. That should help you. https://www.apple.com/itunes/affiliates/resources/documentation/itunes-store-web-service-search-api.html
Here's a writeup by Apple describing the API: https://www.apple.com/itunes/affiliates/resources/blog/introduction---search-api.html
From there, you just have to hit the endpoint with the appropriate parameters and then display the results. The endpoint is:

Accessing device contact list using Corona Sdk?

I am working on a project which fetches the contact list and the user will be able to send an email. Any help or advice will be greatly appreciated. I know it can be done in phone-gap.
Thanks in advance.
Getting the contact list is not possible with Corona.
