ICal: How do I get iCal to sync with a shared calendar?

I am working in a small business who are running a Microsoft Exchange Server. All users are using Microsoft Outlook for e-mails and calendars. I want to get iCal on my mac to sync with the shared calendar on the Exchange server which is published in the 'public folders'. Can anyone shed any light on this matter? Does iCal do this?

In short: No it doesn't.
There's a third party 'solution' out there: Groupcal by Snerdware. However, since OS10.4 it's nothing but trouble with that program.

  • How can I get iCloud to sync with Outlook 2011 calendars??

    Recently got a new MBA11 and use an iPhone and rely heavily on Outlook. All I want to do is be able to sync my calendars and contacts across devices. When I used to be on Windows I could simply do this with Google Calendars and Google sync.
    Outlook 2011 isn't or doesn't support syncing with google (not sure who's fault this is).
    I thought iCloud would fix this however iCloud creates new calendars in iCal that won't sync with Outlook.
    Does anyone know a work around?
    Personally I would have thought this kind of thing would be simple, easy and a necessary function whether it be on google, apple or microsofts part!!

    Microsoft have not made Outlook for Mac compatible with iCloud since they haven't bothered to include support for the industry standard CalDAV and CardDAV protocols iCloud uses.
    See: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2648915
    Apple cannot do anything to rectify this, as they don't make Microsoft Office. It is in Microsoft's hands.
    It wasn't necessary to buy Office for Mac to sync with iCloud. All Macs come with all the applications required for syncing with iCloud for free.
    Use Apple's Mail, Address Book and iCal.

  • Can't get phone to sync with multiple Google Calendars?

    I set up multiple calendar accounts with Google but have run across an issue.....
    When I perform a sync from my phone it only syncs with my first "primary" calendar. The items in my "primary" calendar are the only ones that appear on Google Calendar. However when I enter them on Google Calendar and then perform a sync all the items appear on my phone.
    Any insight as to how I can get them to sync both ways?

    I am trying to figure this out. I added my dads calendar to mine in a regular browser, and after syncing with my phone, it shows up in the preferences in calendar view options as another calendar that is with my gmail account, and it is set to be visible in the view all calendar. but it does not show, neither does it show when you just go to view that calendar alone. i dont get why this is happening if it is there in my preferences. 
    im going to just add my dads gmail account to my calendar, but it would be so much easier if all my gmail calendars that are tied to my one gmail account would show. is palm working on a fix for this?? 

  • So when I installed the most recent updates for microsoft office 2011 for mac, my ical info disappeared.  Still have the info on my Office calendar but it's no longer on ical.  It's also been removed from my phone.  How can I get outlook to sync with ical

    When I installed the recent updates for Microsoft Office 2011 for Mac, my iCal calendar was wiped out, as was the calendar on my iPhone.  I'd rather use iCal than Office and was attempting to phase Office out altogether.  Now, all of my information is on the Office calendar but not iCal.  The iCloud version of my iCal calendar is not up to date.  In any event, I couldn't figure out how to send that info to the iCal on my mac or my phone.  How can I sync my Office calendar info to iCal?  If that's not possible, how can I get my Office calendar to sync with my iPhone?  All of my sync services are set up in iTunes and on my phone.  This happened to me once before and I spent hours on the phone with Apple and on the web trying to work it out.  I NEED MY CALENDAR!!!! PLEASE HELP!!!!!

    As that's not an Apple product, you may get more help by using Microsoft's Office for Mac forums:
    Office for Mac forums
    The other concern I have is that Office 2011 requires an Intel-based Mac and you posted in the older iMac (pre-Intel or "PPC") forums. If you have an Intel-based iMac (Apple menu > About this Mac..." will say "Intel" if you do) then I think you'll get faster and more accurate ansers to other questiosn in the Apple forums for newer iMacs here:

  • I recently gave my old iPod touch someone after restoring it Etc.   the iPod was completely cleared off.  However it's only taking some of their music. How do I get it to sync with their iTunes account and sync all their music ?

    I recently restored my iPod and gave it to my mom.  It accepted some of her music but not all of it synced. How do I get all of her music to sync

    1) You asked "Does she need to reconnect to that itunes/computer and if so what do we need to do to remove this folder of pics from her ipod?" Yes, you have to connect the iPod to that computer and go to the Photos pane for the iPod in iTunes and uncheck sync photos and the click on synce/apply. In the future do not check sync photos.
    iOS and iPod: Syncing photos using iTunes
    2)
    Create a NEW account for using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before.
    Creating an iTunes Store, App Store, iBookstore, and Mac App Store account without a credit card
    Then on the iPod go to
    - Settings>Messages>Send and receive and sign out your ID and sign into hers. Make sure that only her ID email address is listed.
    - Settings>FaceTime sign out of your ID and sign into hers. Make sure that under You can be reached at only her ID email address is listed
    - Settings>iCloud and sign out and sign in with hers

  • How do I get a reliable sync with streaming data in RS232?

    I have an application running in LV6i that must grab data from a continuous serial ASCII stream destined for a VT100 terminal. The stream repeats about every 1/10th of a second. The stream contains approximately 4k of data. There are no separators, but the VT100 positioning data repeats with every scan.
    The problem: I cannot seem to get a good sync when reading the stream with LabVIEW. Initial reads of the stream may result in characters that are one byte off (garbage). An analysis of the hex data shows the data is read correctly, it's just one byte off (3D 45 read as D4 5C, for example). Rereading the stream will eventually produce good data, but then it may read only a few lines instead of a
    full buffer (I read for one second, see how many bytes are in the buffer, and read the entire buffer. Then, parse the string for the VT100 commands I need and split the string into the variable data I need). It often requires 15 to 20 re-reads to get the buffer to fill. Oddly, once I get this working in a given session, it is pretty reliable.
    Does anyone have a solution for this? It's driving me NUTS!
    TIA,
    Larry Stein
    Woodward Governor

    Well, after much more digging around, I found that the VISA serial read vi was not reading all the data in the buffer. Knowledgebase article 0ACAKCRP had the answer.
    Hope this helps someone else someday.

  • My iPhone 4s is retaining all emails in its inbox yet I am deleting them in Outlook. How do I get it to sync with my outlook account and delete the emails?

    My iphone 4s is retaining all of my  emails in it's inbox. I have been deleting emails in outlook but they are not deleting on the iphone. How do I set up my iphone so it is a secondary account and syncs with outlook on my Mac?

    I had that problem and seemed to have solved it by deleting my email accounts and then reinstalling.  I think there was a HARD reset involved also, but since it was just after I got my new 4S (6 weeks ago), I'm not sure about the reset.

  • How can I get Outlook to sync with my iPad?

    I have a Dell Latitude with a new hard drive and Office 2010. I installed iTunes and successfully synced my iPhone 5 with my Oulook contacts and calendar. Then I immediately synced my computer and my iPad Air. While I was successful in syncing my contacts, my calendar did not sync and actually deleted all previous events on my iPad's calendar. I have tried to sync several times without any success?  What should I try next?
    Thanks.

    Had you previously synced your iPad to another computer?

  • How do I sync with a shared calendar?

    There's a third party 'solution' out there: Groupcal by Snerdware. However, since OS10.4 it's nothing but trouble with that program. They've recently released version 3.0, which is supposed to fix things, yet for me (and a couple of other users, according to for instance versiontracker) matters only got worse.

  • How do I get Messages to sync with iMessage on my iPhone?

    I have read all of the reviews and seen all of the intro videos for Mountain Lion and where they say that Messages from my MBP (using Mountain Lion) will sync seemlessly with the iMessages on my iPhone.  I have yet to be able to figure out how to make this happen.  I send test Messages to other iPhone users (using iMessage on phone and Messages on MBP) and the recipients are saying that they are getting my message but it opens a new/different conversation each time.  On my end, I see none of the messages from my phone coming over to the computer.
    If someone could point me in the right direction, I would be very appreciative!

    its supposed to be between OSX and iOS devices only, hence the iMessage name. But i am having the same problem as everybody. I send a message from my phone and it pops up on my sisters phone as the contact info she previously entered into her phone. When i send a message from my iMac, it sends it in a completely new conversation to her phone with my email address, or Apple ID, as the sender.
    What has seemed to have had some effect so far, pull out your iPhone. Go to settings> messages> recieve at... then enter your apple id at the top if it isnt already there. tap caller id and switch it to your email instead of your phone #.
    the problem with that is everyone sees your messages being sent from your email. But it did make the messages i sent from my mac appear on my phone....and the messages i recieved on my phone appear on my mac.
    Its still kinda stupid how this app functions though
