How to import Lotus Notes or Outlook calendar into iCal ???

Is there a way to import calendar data from either Lotus Notes or Outlook calendar into iCal ? Is there a generic data type file that I must first get the calendar file into before importing into iCal ?

The file must be .ics. I used to simply use Missing Sync to get my calendars synced up, however it's not yet supported in Leopard.
So, in order to get my office Outlook data over to Ical, I simply used the following "macro"
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=136194
Simply follow the instructions...it worked well for me. all my work data got transferred over.

Importing Now Up To Date Calendar into iCal

I have been using NUTD for ten years. It is now starting to crash often with the latest OS software. So I would like to import my entire NUTD calendar into iCal. However, I cannot figure out how to do this. I have looked at discussions on the subject, but they all seem to be several years old. Any new ideas on doing this? I have a Bed and Breakfast and need the past ten years calendar info, plus the reservation info that goes out three year from now. So I need to import 13 years worth of calendar data.

I just did a full migration from Now Up-to-Date to iCal and was successful using a tip obtained elsewhere. The key is to pass the data through Excel and Palm Desktop. Now can't export vCal yet and iCal won't import tab delimited text. However, Palm Desktop can import tab-delimted text and export vCal.
I don't think you can successfuly create multiple iCal calendars from the Now categories going through Palm Desktop; I didn't try that. To make sure it worked out, I did it using multiple export/imports doing one Now category at a time by passing it through Excel. Here's a summary of the steps:
1. Export your date rage from Now in tab-delimited format.
2. Open the export file in Excel, sort by category.
3. Extract all entries for each category into separate workbooks, save each as tab-delimited text file format.
4. Open Palm Desktop and create a new calendar for the category (e.g business, personal, special events, etc.) Save it in a temp place like your desktop.
5. Import the text file to the new Palm Desktop calendar
6. Export from Palm Desktop to a vCal file
7. Create a new calendar in iCal for the category to be imported
8. Import the vCal file into that calendar.
Repeat steps 4-8 for each Now category.
There were some anomolies I couldn't explain (like some single-day all-day events becoming two-day events in iCal), but I just cleaned those up manually.
Repeating events in the Now Calendar will become multiple single events in iCal. Also, if you have any commas in titles or notes, the process of passing through Excell wil put " " around those entries in iCal. If this bothers you, you could pass the saved Excel text files (from step 3) through a text editor (Text Wrangler works best, TextEdit should do it also) to delete the quotes if you want.

Importing Outlook calendar into iCal

I am relatively new to Apple and one of the few things that is taking the gloss off an otherwise happy experience of working in this new environment is my inability to import my Outlook (2003) Calendar from the work office into iCal on my home iMac. I would be grateful if anyone could tell me if this is possible, and how it might be done so that I do not overwrite the appointments I already have entered in iCal. Thanks.

Don't blame Apple for this. Blame Microsoft. ALL of Microsoft's products (Outlook, Windows Media Player, Microsoft Office,etc.) were created in proprietary & closed formats, designed to keep you "locked in" to Microsoft and Windows as long as possible. Microsoft makes it nearly impossible to move any of your data out of their products and into a competitor's products.
Apple, on the other hand, has designed all of their products with open standards and open formats, so your data is never "locked in" like it is with Microsoft.
In the meantime, luckily you can use the product Outlook2Mac to get your data over from Outlook's calendar to iCal.

How to subcribe to a published Outlook calendar in iCal

I use MS Outlook for work and iCal for my personal calendar.... I use my iPhone for business and personal use. I can't use MS Exchange on my iPhone to sync my Outlook calendar without it overwriting my iCal appointments.
I have published my MS Outlook calendar [privately] and want to subscribe to it in my iCal, but have been unsuccessful.
Do I need to work-around it somehow by subscribing to it from Entourage, Google, Yahoo! etc first then subscribe to that calendar? I'm game with any work-around; whatever will work, I have tons of appointments I need to track that are business and personal. Using MS Outlook directly for any personal use is out of the question.
Bottom line - I want my MS Outlook calendar (work calendar) merged with my iCal (personal calendar) so I can have both on my iPhone.
Thank you in advance for your help!
Erica

Have you ever gotten an answer to this question? I'm researching new phones. I'm trying to merge and globalize the whole shabang. And I'm like you -- Outlook at work, iCal at home.

Import from Yahoo!/sbcglobal calendar into iCal - is it possible?

I run a PC at the office as well as a PC laptop of my own. However - my G4 is my main hub computer at home and from whence all roads lead to and from.
I am on sbcglobal (Yahoo!) for e-mail and one of the niftier things I can do is "sync" (via Intellisync software available for free from Yahoo!) my ENTIRE contacts and calendar from my office PC Outlook and export it into Yahoo!. I have determined that I can export a vCard file out of the Yahoo! contacts database and then import that into my Address Book (OK - some minor tweaks/editing needed on my part after the import) but EVERYTHING is there - very cool indeed.
Is there any way to do something similar with iCal? (presently I cannot seemingly export the Yahoo! calendar data either an iCal or vCal file). Will exporting it to a .csv (did I get that right) be of any help or just really screw things up?
advice, guidance, a helathy dose of reality, please
thanks

looks like this is not yet an option via yahoo/sbc

How to import calendar into iCal?

I am trying to import a calendar into iCal. Here is my AppleScript:
set theFile to "Sample.ics"
tell application "iCal"
open theFile
end tell
tell application "System Events"
tell process "iCal"
tell window "Add events"
click pop up button 1
click menu item "New Calendar" of menu 1 of pop up button 1
click button "OK"
end tell
end tell
end tell
I have specified a full path for theFile in the actual script. Here is what happens when I run it:
The iCal icon starts jumping and the script just stays running. If I hunt around I can find the "Add events" window and it is just sitting there waiting for interaction. If I click the pop up button and select New Calendar then click OK the file imports like I wanted and my script errors out saying it can't find the "Add Events" window. Clearly my script loads the file into iCal fine. Then it has problems. Here are my guesses as to what goes wrong:
1. maybe the "Add event" window is modal and iCal won't respond to the script until the window is dealt with.
2. maybe the pop up button is not a pop up button and is some other UI element .
3. maybe there is an issue with focus
4. maybe I have no clue, should stop speculating, and someone will help me.

I'm stuck too. Although the Accessibility Inspector describes the “Add events” window as belonging to iCal, the script seems not to see that window as a UI element of iCal:
tell application "iCal"
activate -- essential statement!
open theFile
end tell
tell application "System Events" to tell process "iCal"
return UI elements
end tell
--> {window "iCal" of application process "iCal" of application "System Events", menu bar 1 of application process "iCal" of application "System Events"}
It doesn't even seem possible to bypass the process by using the keystroke command.

How to import photo from album in Iphone into computer?

How to import photo from album in Iphone into computer?

You can't. You can import from the Camera Roll only.
Photos transferred from your computer to your iPhone via the iTunes sync/transfer process should remain on your computer. Photos transferred from your computer are optimized for viewing on your iPhone via the iTunes sync/transfer process - the original resolution of these photos is reduced, which is why transferring these photos in the opposite direction is not supported. These photos should remain on your computer and be included with your computer's backup.
There are some 3rd party paid utilities that provide for transferring these photos in the opposite direction but such utilities are not supported by Apple and the original resolution of these photos will be lost.
Here is one such utility.

Viewing/sharing outlook calendars in ical

I am trying to view a colleagues outlook calendar in ical. I've gone through the process of sharing and adding via the outlook web app and i can see their calendar fine via web browser. I'm struggling to see it in iCal however. I go to add the calendar to my iMac calendar via calendar > preferences > accounts > delegation. I type in their email address and it pops up as they're a contact/we're on the same network. I add them and then in the delegation list they appear as 'greyed out'. I've gone through this process with all of my colleagues, some it works for and some it doesn't. Sometimes some of them are greyed out and other times they are there and let me tick 'show'.
All calendars are visible and working via outlook web app. Only some let me see them in iCal.
This is very frustrating! Anyone have any solutions?

Following thread could help your question.

Technically, to make the function keys work you don't need to change the second box to dash. I don't know why I gave that advice, but it isn't necessary. I guess I said that simply because that's what I have it set to.
The reason there are two boxes is so that you can set Exposé to using both the function keys and the mouse. For example, if I have +All Windows+ set to F9 and Secondary Mouse Button, then it will show all open windows if I click F9 or right-click. That is why you actually don't need to have the second boxes for any of these set to dashes. You could set them to your mouse buttons, or if you wanted you could set the first box of any of these to any function key, as long as it isn't set to the same one as the key you want to use for your shortcuts within FCE.
I hope this made sense, I realize that I might not have explained it very clearly.
