How do I manage Google calendar account to allow access to my iCal account?

In Delegation box I see message: "You can change who can access your account by clicking the Edit button". This is what I am trying to do, but when I click Edit, Page opens on Manage Account Access which remains blank. It won't recognise account in sidebar.
Message comes up: "Cannot enable access to your account ****@gmail was not found" "Search again for the user you want to add by typing their name and selecting one of the resulting choices." Bar below offers "Cancel" or "Search Again" No choice appears in the Manage Account Access page.
I can only access new google CalDAV account in sidebar by highlighting my own account below in same sidebar. It then appears in box: Accounts I can access:
I tick box under Show, Under 'Users' new account appears correctly, but Privilege says "Read only".
I want it to allow "Read & Write". How do I set that up? Can you help? Thanks.

Many thanks for trying to help. I am afraid nothing works. I still don't know what to do: the Google Calendars page is set under the heading "Calendars I can view and modify" as Calendars with shared edit settings. These show two gmail calendars. No iCal. When I follow instructions to Get started with CalDav I get the same problem every time.
On the Delegation page when I click my gmail account in the sidebar the other account appears as "read only". I cannot edit to allow access to other account.
I can see other account's entries on my iCal Calendar. But I can't edit or add to them. Other account has no access, cannot view or edit my iCal Calendars at all on his gmail account.
When I click on the other account in the sidebar I get message mentioned before: "Cannot enable access to your account ****@gmail was not found" "Search again for the user you want to add by typing their name and selecting one of the resulting choices." Bar below offers "Cancel" or "Search Again" which repeats whole procedure without success.
Would be grateful for help.

How do I move google calendar events to iCal?

how do I move google calendar events to iCal?

ab1268,
I'm trying to do this very thing. I have multiple google calendars set up (one for each kid, my husband etc.). I want to move to iCal exclusively. Based on your note above, should I export each individual calendar within ical. Remove each from the iCal account and then reimport then into ical? I suppose the risk is low b/c the data still exists in google.
Please advise - I would hate to misstep. Very new to the apple world (aside from iphone / ipad).
Thanks!

How to syn multiple google calendars

Hi, I share my calendar with my wife's gmail calendar. Now on my Lumia 720 my appointments have synced but I am not sure how to set up the phone so it will also sync my Wife's calendar. Do I need to add her account on to my phone and just tag calendar and unchecked contacts etc?
I used to have a iphone and once set up through m.google.com both my wife's calendar and mine appeared in different colors on the phone.
Any advice on how to achieve this on a lumia 720 would be much appreciated.
Thanks. James
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I had the same problem (had multiple Google accounts, but only one synced with the calendar of my Lumia 620), and found the sollution from here:
http://wonderreader.tumblr.com/post/7360213627/multiple-google-calendars-windows-phone
I didn't had to do the JavaScript part, though, but otherwise I did as adviced. Also, I had difficulties at first as my Safari browser changed m.google.com/sync automatically to www-version. However, the https://m.google.com/sync/settings worked just fine: I could immediately locate my Windows Phone and change the calendar settings to also allow other calendars to sync.

How do I add Google calendar subscriptions to iPad iCal?

I was able to add my Google calendar account to iCal on iPad but my calendar subscriptions (delegated) from other users is not displayed. I know there is a wizard to add a subscribed calendar but I don't know how to fill it out:
Settings> Add Account> Other> Add Subscribed Calendar > Server "myserver.com/cal.ics". Where do I get the information to plug between the quotes?
Thanks.

TS2481 How do I sync google calendar with Ipad 2 thru the cloud. Used to work, but now I've lost it. Maybe a setting?

What setting do I use on my Ipad 2 and Iphone 3GS to enable google calendar to sync thru Icloud between my 2 devices? Thank you!

Hey JonC84
Thanks for the question. You can definitely sync your new iPod touch with the local calendar on your computer (you won't need to setup an account like iCloud). The following article may help you achieve this:
iOS: How to transfer or sync content to your computer
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1296
Contacts, Calendars, Bookmarks, and Notes
You can sync contacts, calendars, bookmarks, and notes with other applications on your computer. This allows you keep all your information in sync across multiple computers and iOS devices. The settings for these items are all in the Info tab for your iOS device in iTunes. With your iOS device connected to the computer, select your iOS device. Then click the Info tab.
Calendars
To sync calendars with your computer, choose "Sync Calendars" or "Sync iCal Calendars."
- When syncing calendars, you can sync all calendars or sync specific calendars.
- You can limit the data that is synced to only events that have occurred in the last 30 days. The option can be changed to any number of days.
For additional information, see this article (while the article refers to iTunes 11, most steps are applicable for you):

How can I sync Google Calendar with my E75?

This is driving me insane. I've searched and searched and searched the web for a way to sync my E75 unlocked phone with Google Calendar. 90% of the threads and comments Google digs up simply say, "It doesn't work." Some people seem to have manged to get it to work with some very minor variations on the following directions:
1. On the E75, press the Menu key.
2. Select Email.
3. Remove the Mail for Exchange mailbox (if it currently exists).
4. Select New from the home screen of the Email application.
5. Press Start.
6. Enter a fictitious email addres that you know does not exist.
7. Press OK.
8. Enter a fictitious password for the fictitious email address.
9. Press OK.
10. Select Mail for Exchange.
11. Type in your Gmail username/email address.
12. Press OK.
13. Leave the Domain blank.
14. Press OK.
15. Type: m.google.com
16. Press OK twice.
17. Type in your Gmail password.
18. Press Log in.
19. Go to the home screen of the Email application.
20. Select Settings.
21. Select Personal information management.
22. Select Applications.
23. Select Calendar.
24. Select Calendar sync (this will enable calendar).
25. Go to the home screen of the Email application.
26. Select Settings.
27. Select Mail for Exchange.
28. Select What to sync.
29. Select Sync email (this will disable email).
30. Select Back three times.
31. Press Options.
32. Select Synchronize.
My problem is that my E75 Mail app doesn't have the Mail for Exchange option described in step 10. The rest of the procedure just goes down the tube at that point. After a great deal of research, I'm left with the impression that either something is wrong with my phone or these directions are out of date. Has anyone had recent experience configuring the E75 to work with Google Calendar either through MfE or through another (free) app?

Hi there,
didn't read your complete rant, it's clear you've disappointed by substandard product and/or mismatching expectations, I on the other hand have had a exceptional good experience with my N95. It's reaching old age now, so I can't wait for the N900. However I do see Nokia has a challenge to overcome, well two actually. Yes you're right they're trying too hard to create some Nokia-bounded platforms, instead of facillitating the connectivity between platforms. Recently saw some intresting concepts in the beta apps, but they require a similar nokia app on the other side. Well I'm very sorry Nokia, nowadays I don't even know the number of the person I'll be calling, do you really believe I know (or want you to tell me = $$?) who of my contacts has this app enabled? With some good will and some fantasy I could say it's a part of brandpositioning and solidifing (or some other fancy BS ;-) ). Nokia however also seems to have an issue with postdevelopment integration and streamlining of their apps. Developing apps as more or less seperate entities might seem a sensible develment strategy and it probably is when combined with good (read efficient and thus "cheap") projectmanagement. If a contact has a birthday mentioned in contacts, don't you think I would want to see that in my calendar? If I try to be smart, I give the input myself, but then what happens? When syncing I get 2 birthdays is my outlook calendar ;-( Similar ennoying feat happens with GPS locations, I´m using serach address, use contactlist. Have a guess where I´d like the coordinates to go to when saved....no it´s not a new and seperate entry in favourites which in turn is read by the address book, these things should have seamless integration. User experience and ultimately satisfaction cannot be achieved by solely developing series of new and improved functionalities, cause to us, the consumer it´s not primarily a functionality. It´s actually a person, either in direct communication or otherwise stored for future communication. As a producer of these communication devices Nokia should show they understand this, preferably through their products. Regarding your issue syncing with Google Calendar, I'm assuming you're already using the calendar. Why not download the Google apps app? Or if you only want the calendar, take the standalone calendar app, Basically you'll have a mobilized calendar view with most of the functionalities there. Can't be online indefinetly? Just save the page locally, nothing you can't handle ;-) The solutions with either MfE reconfig or syncing with outllook/windows calendar in the middle are feasible too, however you do need to be carefull when setting direction and/or dominance of the sync relation. Multipoint syncing can become a severe headache if you haven't set it up proparly..... I've also included a google info mail, they send me some time ago. Loads of info&links, I'm sure there's a solution there which will fit your needs
greetz and goodluck

How do you link Google calendar to iCal in Maverick?

Just downloaded Maverick (great) to my late 2008 aluminium laptop but cannot link Google Calendar with iCal. In iCal tried deleting old account and re-entering but still iCal does not sync, although it still does on iPad and iPhone. Any ideas?

Hi there,
I have tested this out on my backup disk and there is a slight modification to the method. Will highlight this with quotation.
================================================================================ ==
It appears that once upgraded to Mavericks, the calendar folders are no longer compatible with the latest version of iCal. Hence why it crashes.
To remediate,
Close the iCal App
Duplicate the folder (For Backup reason) /Users/YOURPROFILE/Library/Calendar
Delete all content with in /Users/YOURPROFILE/Library/Calendar
Go to:-
System Prefences | Internet Account | iCloud
Uncheck Calendars, Recheck Calendars
Select the iCloud profile
Press "-" to delete the whole iCloud profile.
Recreate the iCloud profile by select "+" then iCloud
Enter your iCloud Username and Password
It will asked you if you wish to merge the database. (You may have to do this more then once)
For every other google calendar
Uncheck Calendars (if already checked), Recheck Calendars
Hopefully this will recreate all the calender folders within /Users/YOURPROFILE/Library/Calendar and start re-syncing.
Once you are satified that all your calender are syncing, delete the /Users/YOURPROFILE/Library/Calendar copy
Good Luck.

How to sync my google calendar with iCloud ?

To sync my work calendar (that uses outlook) with my iPhone, Is sync my work calendar with my Gmail Calendar so I get my gmail alendar on my iPhone.
But on my iPhone the gmail calendar is not the account that is linked to my iCloud account.
So how can copy all my calendar items into my iCloud calendar, so it get synchronised on my MAc ?
Thanks

Yes but if set iCloud as my default calendar it wont resolve my problem. Because If I add an item into my Gmail calendar, it will successfully get synch into my iPhone but as it is the gmail cal it won't be ssnch with my mac
(If I add directly an item into my iphone, it will get synch with my mac)
So to be clear, is there a way to copy on the fly items inserted from GCal to Icloud cal ?
add item in my work calendar -> get synch to GCal -> get synch on my iphone GCal -> copy that to iCoud Cal -> get synch through ICloud into my Mac

How do I get google calendar on iphone4s?

What

The google calendar is part of your email set up. If you have already added the Gmail account: Settings app > Mail > [your gmail account] > Turn Calendar ON
I you haven't added the gmail mail account, you will need to do that first. If you do not wish to receive email on this account, turn email off.

How do i get my calendar to sync from my phone to ical

how do i get my calendar to sync from my phone to ical

Hi
I have just got an iphone and I cannot get it to sync with my macbook
How did you do it in the end?

How do you manage space on iPad Air 16GB using one apple ID account?

I have an iphone 5 and the new iPad Air 16GB wi-fi only that I will be using icloud to sync back and fourth to one another. First I was wondering when I go into settings, then icloud on my iphone 5, I see Mail, Contacts, Calendars, Reminders, Safari, Notes, Passbook, Keychain, Photos, Documents and data, and find my iphone on the list. So the way I understand the whole syncing deal is you turn on whichever ones of those you want to be able to view on the iphone 5 and then you go to your ipad air and do the same thing turn on and off whatever you want to be able to view on their, and thats when your using the same apple id between both devices. My next question is that the only area that you can turn off or on what you want to be able to view on the devices? Is the the settings, icloud, is that the only place in setting you turn off and on what will sync and not sync?? So in other words the apps and games you really cant manually manage. For example if I have 5 games on my iphone 5 and only want 3 of those games to sync over to my ipad air and the other 2 not to sync over, is that possible? To me the only way to accomplish that would be to create a new apple ID account, but that would eliminate the option of being able to sync calendars, notes, reminders, etc and be able to view them on both devices which would kind of suck and defeat the purpose right? Please let me know if I am on the right page with all this and if their are any other things that I should know about in the settings menu to fully utilize the managing and syncing only this or that between the ipad air and iphone 5 using the same apple ID/icloud account information.

Thanks
Are you sure that if I use my windows log in rather than my husbands, then open itunes it won't delete all his hundreds of songs and overwrite with mine?
I want to maintain my own apple ID login and he wants his but without losing his songs.....
how do i transfer the content of my itunes including apps and songs to the new computer. There doesn't seem to be an easy explanation on here. Do I just plug my iPhone in and it will all transfer?

How do I manage Google calendar account to allow access to my iCal account?
