How do i sync ical with my other computer

I need to sync iCal on my two mac computers and am not sure how to do it.

iCloud will probably solve this issue once it gets released. Meanwhile, you can sync one of them with Google Calender first, then sync Google Calender with the others. I'm quite sure this will work.

  • How do i sync ical with google calendar, in that direction

    i have google cal and ical syncset up but it was set up by google telling what to enter into ical. this made my other calendars, all the google calendars i have other than the main one, into "delegates" on ical.
    whats the reason or process for this? cant they just been normal calendars on ical?
    the reason i ask is that i have a menu pull down app which seems to only read "normal" calendars and not delegated calendars...
    can i sync ical to google cal but enter details into ical to sync with google rather than the other way round?

    So if I make calendar entry in my iphone it syncs to my mac ical but not icloud.
    If everything is set to use iCloud then it's impossible for data to get from the iPhone to the mac but not iCloud, since all the data actually resides on iCloud and is read from there by devices. It rather sounds as if you have some syncing going on iTunes. If you look at the calendar listing on your Mac and Phone they must be listed under iCloud, not 'On My Mac/iPhone' - is that the case?

  • HT201253 How do I sync iPhone with a new computer without losing data?

    I've got a new laptop and have transferred my iTunes library from my old desktop to my new computer.  I want to sync my iPhone with the new iTunes library, but I get the scary message that my phone is synced to my old computer, and all my data will be erased and replaced from the new library.  What exactly will be erased?  Is it just the music and other media files, or will I have to reinstall all my apps and other data as well?  As a precaution, I've backed up my phone to iCloud.  I'd hate to have to completely restore my phone, but if necessary I will.  The instructions for this on the Apple Support site are not clear.  Thanks in advance for any help/reassurance!
    iPhone 4, running iOS 7.1.2
    Computer is an Acer running Windows 8.1
    Thanks!

    You won't lose any of your iPhone settings when syncing your iPhone with a new computer. When doing so, iTunes on the new computer will create a backup of your iPhone where your iPhone settings are stored.
    In addition to an iTunes backup, did you also create a backup of photos that were stored on your old Mac along with contact information, calendar events, and bookmarks?
    Before syncing your iPhone, you need to transfer your iTunes library from your old Mac to your new. Then authorize your new Mac with iTunes with your iTunes account. Did you de-authorize your old Mac with iTunes? You can have up to 5 computers authorized with the same iTunes account.
    Also before syncing, enter one contact in the Address Book, and one calendar events in iCal on your new Mac. Make these up if needed, which can be deleted later after the first sync. This will provide a merge prompt when syncing this data, which you want to select - especially if you don't have a backup of contact information and calendar events from your old Mac.
    If you use iPhoto for transferring photos from your computer to your iPhone, you need to transfer your iPhoto library from your old Mac to your new or any photos that were transferred from your old Mac to your iPhone will be lost when transferring photos to your iPhone from your new Mac.

  • How do I sync iCal with two iPhones?

    Simply put, I want to share my schedule with another person via iCal through iCloud. Can I just add an account to iCal and then it just works, or what more do I have to do? I want to be able to sync two different iphones on two different macs to the same calendar. PLEASE HELP. a Yes or No would suffice, and if YES please tell me how to do it! Thanks!

    You don't.  I asked Steve Balmer (CEO of Microsoft) and got this reply from his staff:
    Thank you for your feedback and your interest in Outlook for Mac 2011.
    Steve's office forwarded me your mail and asked me to reply. Outlook 2011
    syncs with Exchange and Office 365 calendars, but as you point out there
    is no consumer calendar service that syncs with Outlook 2011. Here's what
    I do to work around the lack of direct sync: I keep my family calendar on
    Hotmail Calendar, which works great through Safari on my Mac (and also
    other popular browsers like Chrome), and syncs directly to my iOS devices
    and my PC. I understand your frustration with not being able to see your
    personal calendar directly in Outlook for Mac. Contrary to your
    impression, we've never promised to add this feature, but we strongly
    consider customer feedback like yours as we plan future versions. Thanks
    again for your feedback and for taking time to write.
    Thank you,

  • How can I sync iCal with my iPhone 4 without connecting to iTunes?

    I would like to be able to add an event to iCal (for example) and have it automatically update in my iPhone. I currently have to plug the iPhone in. I do not subscribe to MobileMe or Google calendars, and don't want to! Any help is appreciated.

    Unless you subscribe to iTunes Match ($24.99 per annum in the US) and upload those songs to it form your computer, then the only way to get them into your phone's Music app is by connecting the phone and syncing.

  • HT2513 How do I syncing iCal with Google Calendar with 2-step verification turned on?

    MacBook Pro
    Lion 10.7.3
    I am writing to ask for help in connecting my iCal to my google calendar with 2-step verification turned on.
    While google has application specific passwords set up, they don't seem to work through iCal or though Mail, Contacts and Calendars.  Any ideas or solutions would be great.
    Thanks

    Thanks Kao. I've tried that.  Didn't work for me.
    I found a reply in another thread that indicated that after setting up in Mail, Contats and Calendars I needed to delete my account from within iCal then recreate it in iCal using the application specific password.  I did that.  iCal seemed to accept it, I've closed and reopened a few times and it seems to be working now without the errors.
    I was able to get it to work yesterday temporarily - hope it sticks this time.

  • How to sync ical with multiple apple devices and android?

    Does anybody have use an android phone in addition to apple devices, and have you figured out how to sync ical with all? (I know there are other calendars that can be used by all, but it means a lot to my husband to stay with ical.)

    I tried Yahoo in the past but had trouble with duplicate entries. However, this was a while ago before Yahoo updated their site and this was with syncing to a Windows computer with Outlook in addition to a Mac so my results might not be typical. Yahoo's worth a shot, but my experience with Yahoo is why I use Google Calendar.
    Beyond that, I don't know of any other "free" services. There are many other hosted calendar sites that could work, but you'd pay something like $5-$20 per month, which is comparable to MobileMe.

  • How do I sync iCal on my mac with OS 8 devices

    How do I sync iCal on my mac with OS 8 devices

    Hi jgiolma,
    Since you do not mention what version of the Mac operating system you are running on your MacBook Pro it is a little hard to answer your question. For computers running Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5 or later one way to sync your calendars would be to use iCloud. See this article for minimum system requirements for iCloud -
    System requirements for iCloud
    Information on using iCloud for your calendars can be found here -
    iCloud: Calendar overview and

    More general information about iCloud is available here -

  • Many years ago synced iCal with Microsoft program. Since installing Lion whenever I try to create an event in iCal it flashes up message "Unable to open Microsoft sync services Power PC applications no longer supported." How do I get rid of message?

    Many years ago synced iCal with Microsoft program. Since installing Lion whenever I try to create an event in iCal it flashes up message "Unable to open Microsoft sync services Power PC applications no longer supported." How do I get rid of message?

    Lion no longer supports PowerPC apps. If this is Microsoft Office 2008 (Entourage 2008) then you should disable the syncing services.  (I don't have Office 2008 installed anymore so I don't know exactly what it's called anymore.)  If you have Microsoft Office 2004 or earlier, then it can't be run on Lion at all since Lion removed Rosetta, which is what allowed a PPC app to run on an Intel based Mac.
    Also, I believe Microsoft removed sync services from the current Outlook 2011 (which replaces Entourage) so even upgrading to a newer version of Microsoft Office will not get you back that calendar sync feature.  Supposedly Microsoft is working on a new syncing system, but I wouldn't hold my breath.

    HI, if I did this, then I believe that I cloud would then hold my info which I don't want. Is that the case? The reason is that I'm an old git, therefore used to not giving out info. Would I be right?
    Thank-You so much for taking the time to answer.
