  • How to sync iCal with Google calendar (both ways)???

    I have been trying to sync my ical with my google calendar both ways.
    I got all new event created in google calendar syncing into iCal but i can't get the one created in iCal go into google calendar.
    Help please!!!!
    thx

    When entering a new event in iCal be sure your "google" calendar is highlighted on the left had side of your screen. That makes Google your default calendar as you add events. Or you can choose which calendar from the drop-down box in the details box when adding a new entry. The down side is that is seems you can only select one Calendar; so the "Home", "Work", "Untitled" options become moot if you want to sync back to google.
    If you already had events scheduled in iCal; you can right click on them, select "Calendar" and then choose your google calendar. When you refresh your google calendar that event should show up.
    You simply need to be sure what Calendar you're entering into. Also if you wait a few SECONDS the calendars DO sync without any need to manually synchronize them.
    So basically, ensure you're entering into the Google Calendar in iCal and wait a minute.

  • How to sync iCal with google calendar

    I am trying to sync my Google calander with my iCal calander . I have tried the support suggestions in Google help. Re: creating another account in ICal etc.. But that doesn't work.
    Any help will be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks

    This is the Apple iCloud forum which has nothing whatsoever to do with syncing with Google.
    Try the Google forums, and see here: http://www.google.com/sync/index.html

  • Have thunderbolt and need to sync ical with google calendar in order to use.  Any suggestions?

    Have a thunderbolt and MacBook.  Need to sync ical with google calendar as thunderbolt supports google calendar.  Any suggestions?

    I think we may be talking about two different things. Thunderbolt is the new two way display port on Mac Book Pros and Apple displays.
    Thunderbolt (originally codenamed Light Peak) is an interface for connecting peripheral devices to a computer via an expansion bus. Thunderbolt was developed by Intel and brought to market with technical collaboration from Apple Inc. It was introduced commercially on Apple's updated MacBook Pro lineup on February 24, 2011.
    Thunderbolt combines PCI Express and DisplayPort into a serial data interface. A single Thunderbolt port supports hubs as well as a daisy chain of up to seven Thunderbolt devices; up to two of these devices may be high-resolution displays using DisplayPort. You can move data to and from peripherals up to 20 times faster than with USB 2.0 and up to 12 times faster than with FireWire 800.

  • Sync issues with Google Calendar and e-mail alerts

    Hello,
    I'm experiencing a lot of problems with iCal while I'm trying to sync it with Google Calendar. I have correctly inserted my Google account information into iCal, but:
    when I create a new event and I disable the e-mail alert and save it, it automatically turns on the e-mail alert! Is there a way to disable by default all alerts? I have already tried to go to Settings - Advanced and select “Disable all alerts” with no result;
    all the events I create into iCal are correctly synced with Google Calendar and I can correctly read them on the web app, but in my android device they don't have the time information (they are listed as all-day events)

    GooSync would do the trick - http://www.goosync.com/
    Plz be aware that Goosync nor Google Contacts supports all field from your phone so it is not an 100% backup unfortunately

  • 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?

  • How to use iPhone to sync Outlook with Google calendar?

    This is a bit of a convoluted question, but I think there may be an answer using the iPhone as a go between. Here is the issue, I cannot get my google calendar and my Outlook calendar to sync with each other.  I'm using Outlook 2011 on a macbook pro which is using 10.6.8.  The macbook does not have iCloud services on it.  I am also using an iPhone 5 which of course does have iCloud.
    Before recently switching to an iPhone, I always used a Blackberry.  I was able to get my google calendar events to appear in my Outlook calendar when I connected the Blackberry to my mac with a cord and selected "sync" in the Blackberry desktop manager.  There were some issues with duplicate events on my BB calendar, but I could deal with that.  For that set up, I had turned everything on to sync with as much as possible, including iCal.
    Here is my current question.  Now that I am using the iPhone, is there a way to make google calendar and Outlook calendar sync with each other?  I would think this is possible, because my iPhone and my iCal have all the events from both calendars.  Google is syncing with my iCal, and Outlook is syncing with my iCal.  So, shouldn't the sync work in reverse as well?  Does the iCal only receive events from these two sources but not also "export" events to these calendars as well?
    And, is there a fix using either the iPhone or iCal to make both calendars appear in both places, as they do in my iCal and my iPhone?
    Thank you!

    In order to be able to order from the U.S. Online Store you need to have a U.S. credit card and the device has to be shipped to a U.S. address.

  • 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.

  • BIS Sync period with Google calendar

    Hello to everybody,
    I need to sync by BIS service my Google calendar.
    How many old and future events can the BIS service sync? I have old events from 1999 and future events until 2012. Is it possible to sync this large period by BIS service?
    Thanks
    Bye

    Hi ciossi,
    Google calendar sync through BlackBerry Internet Service should sync all entries in your Google calendar. http://bit.ly/huOx8T You may want to check the calendar settings on your device to make sure it is set to keep calendar appointments forever so they are not removed from your device. http://bit.ly/hwBEHY

  • HT1386 Syncing bug with Google calendar?

    Invites downloaded to iPhone calendar are not updated with subsequent change/ deletion in Google calendar. iCloud not used. Is it a bug?

    Same problems here. Halloween showed Nov 1 ! That's a laugh. Also an 'all day' event created in Google which last more than 1 day will show with the last day of the event missing on the Pre. I just deleted and reset the account and all the multiple all day events show one day short on the Pre. However the info in the event details on the Pre indicate the correct date range. Eg: I just created a 4 day event from Nov 4 to Nov 8 on Google and Pre shows Nov 4 to 7 graphically only but with Nov 4 to 8 in the details. Strange.
    So far Palm's solution has been a suggested partial erase. Doesn't help. I don't understand how such bright people can create such a wonderful OS and then promptly mess up a simple calendar application.This thing was sold on Synergy and I can't even keep an accurate shared calendar with mself let alone with my wife's Pre.

  • Sync iCal with google calendar

    I want to have all my events on my google calendar not my google events on my iCal.

    When entering a new event in iCal be sure your "google" calendar is highlighted on the left had side of your screen. That makes Google your default calendar as you add events. Or you can choose which calendar from the drop-down box in the details box when adding a new entry.

    If you already had events scheduled in iCal; you can right click on them, select "Calendar" and then choose your google calendar. When you refresh your google calendar that event should show up. I had hoped this would all be automatic (true two-way syncing) but I guess not.
    You simply need to be sure what Calendar you're entering into. Also if you wait a few SECONDS the calendars DO sync without any need to manually synchronize them.

  • How do I synch with google calendar?

    I can synch my google calender to my iPhone 5 calender, but I can't get it to work the other way around.  I've tried setting up an Exchange account, a CalDAV account, and my standard Gmail account (that I started with) and none of it changes the problem.  Any advice?

    Sorry
    I asked the wrong question
    I realize if I do it that way I end up with two calendars, mobile me and google. I want the mobile me and google to be one and the same. Is that possible? So when I synch with my phone and mobile me it updates google but not in a separate calendar.
    When I followed the import directions on google I ended up with two calendars on my phone, mobile me and google. I want them to be merged.
    Thanks

  • How to sync contacts with Google Voice?

    Hey everyone, I'm pretty new to the Desktop Software and need a little help.  I have had my bb for over 2 years now, but I have never used the DT software for anything but a full back up do a full reset of my phone.
    So he is the situation.  I just signed up for a Google Voice account and replaced my sprint voicemail with the google voicemail.  I want to add all my bb contacts to my gmail/google account but I don't want to do it manually.  To sum things up, here are my questions (the ones that I think would solve my problem, but feel free to let me know if I'm venturing down the wrong path at anytime)
    1) Is there a way to set the DT software to use Gmail/google as the application for Address Book?  Right now I'm just using the Windows 7 Contacts.
    2) If I can't use Gmail directly, is there another application that the DT software can link to that will save all the contacts as CSV files, and then I import them to Gmail that way?  I believe Windows 7 saves them as a .contact file and Gmail says the format is invalid?
    3) How do I add applications to the DT software that are available to sync the organizer data with?  Currently the only options I have are Yahoo, Windows 7 Contacts, ASCII, and a 4th that I don't remember at the moment.
    The usb port on my phone is going bad, so I have to do a balancing act it the cable in order to get the computer to even recognize that the phone is connected, so I really would like to get all my contacts into my Gmail account in case I have to get a different type of phone.... My patience is running thin waiting on the new Bold LOL
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks

    Hey dcdarrencrosby,
    Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
    You will not be able to use the BlackBerry Desktop Software to synchronize your contacts from BB to Google.
    However if you have a Gmail account added on the BlackBerry, there is a wireless sync option that can bring your contacts over.

  • Will OSX, icloud sync/work with google calendar?

    I was wondering if I can use google services gmail, calendar...etc.  with OSX and with ICloud.  Thanks. 

    In short, yes, you can use Google services with OS X 10.7 (Lion). I also posted something to the discussion that cjrzasa mentioned above: https://discussions.apple.com/message/16867731.
    As I noted there, you can add subscriptions (using iCal on Lion) that sync through iCloud to your other devices (iPhone, MacBook, Mac Pro, etc.) but they won't actually be displayed on icloud.com.
