IPod as a conduit to sync iCal and Outlook 2003 with each other?

I am able to synchronize my work Outlook 2003 calendar and home Mac iCal with the iPod in two separate files on the iPod. I can see them both if I select "All". My questions are:
1. What should I do to sync the PC and the Mac with the same file on the iPod?
2. Is it possible to snychronize the iCal and Outlook with each other via the iPod?
Thanks,

If you mount your iPod on your Mac, navgate to the iPod Calendars folder and double-click on an ics file it will import the calendar into iCal. So you can sync from the PC to the iPod to iCal uni-directionally. If Outlook 2003 can import an ics file then you should be able to sync the other way as well. However, in both cases you will essentially be copying over one calendar with another, not really synchronizing.

Ok... so in that case, what is keeping track of changes to the files on the flashcard? When you plug it into the Mac after using it on the PC, what decides which files are newer and which files to move from the flashcard to the Mac, and which files to move from the Mac to the flashcard? What decides what to do when there is newer data on both?
I suspect you are not actually syncing, but simply manually copying the data each time using the flashcard as the transport medium.
No, I have two sync programs, one on the Mac, one on the PC, they sync their files to the flashcard.

Have you tried configuring iTunes on both your home Mac and work PC to sync calendars to your iPod touch? If so, does it work or is data overwritten?
That was my question, can it be done? I'm guessing, from what you are saying here, that iTunes should be able to handle it? I don't have iTunes on the PC, so I haven't tried it. Is the functionality the same as on the Mac?

Need help syncing iCal and Outlook 2011 (for Mac) THANKS!

QUESTION: How do I sync iCal and Outlook up again without duplicating any more events, and very importantly, without sending any more email invitations?
I just bought an iPhone. I am trying to get my phone and my MacBook Pro synced up through iCloud.
I realize that I need to have Outlook 2011 and iCal set up for syncing for this to work.
I did this at one point, and it resulted in all of my ALL DAY appointments being duplicated in Outlook, iCal, and on the calendar on my phone - and iCloud sending out duplicate invitations to events.
Then, I turned syncing between iCal and Outlook and deleted all of the duplicates in my Outlook.
Of course, because I haven't set up Outlook to sync with iCal, iCal and my phone's calendar have not changed. There are still duplicates there.
How do I sync them up again without duplicating any more events, and very importantly, without sending any more email invitations?
Thanks in advance for any help you can be!
Cheers!

My iPhone 4 was working fine, synched with Outlook 2011 on my iMac 11.02 through iTunes. Calendar changes also appeared in iCal, even though I don't use iCal - I only use Outlook. Last week I was prompted to update Outlook, which I did successfully. Today, I plugged the iPhone into the iMac to synch and suddenly all Calendar and Contact items are gone from the iPhone and in iCal on the iMac. In iTunes, the option to synch with Outlook in the Info tab ("other") is greyed out. What happened? Why can't I synch the iPhone anymore with Outlook? All the Calendar and Contact info is still on the iMac in Outlook. Help!

Sync iCal and Outlook calendars?

I use a Mac at home and on the road, but have to use a Win-XP at work. Is there a way to keep both sets of calendars on my iPod (iCal and Outlook)?

JTAPI and AXL interfering with each other

This has been driving me crazy today.
I had to write a custom callforward app, which upon setting the call forward, modifies some line properties as well (remove any pickup group that may be present).
To set the callforward, I've been using JTAPI and I've had this operation operational for over a year in a productive environment. Now I've added the updateLine axl command, and all of a sudden, the application no longer does what it's supposed to.
Here is what happens: via the phone interface, I enter the number I want to forward to, then send the request to my webserver. There, the forward is set via JTAPI without exceptions being thrown (since setting / removing a cfwd gets no feedback, getting an exception = it didn't work). Then, I send the updateLine for the lines I've just forwarded. It all works out nicely, the apps comes back telling the user all his calls have been forwarded to number X.
However, no callforwarding is actually made even though JTAPI came through telling me everything was okay. However, the pickup group does get removed from the line.
If you then try the same operation again, this time there's only the JTAPI part as the line no longer is in the pickup group, and now the operation works like as reliable as it has always done before.
Writing a sample app is going to be a bitch because this thing isn't quite so simple (and I'm re-using a lot of class libs of other projects so I can't just send the source code of everything to cisco) so I might not open a case on this but I thought I'd let you know.. and if Cisco employees visit this forum maybe they could spare some time trying to replicate.
Now I'm stick having to rewrite the whole callforwarding via axl which technically isn't a problem, but it's just going to take up time that wasn't forseen in this particular project :(

In order to modify a package, the developer would need to acquire a lock on the package. So Oracle would prevent two developers from modifying a package simultaneously. It would do nothing, though, to prevent two developers from serially overwriting each other's changes. That's one of the many reasons that you use an external source control system when developing any code, including database packages.

How do iPhoto and iTunes work with each other

I am very confused about how iPhoto (which is located in the file structure on my Macair under pictures) interacts with iTunes and Photos on my iPad. The management (including synching and moving photos) is not very intuitive. Anyone care to shoot me a link on where to find a good explanation or try their hand at explain this? Thanks.

Labview and Matlab inferfacing with each other

I currently have Labview Mathscript RT Module that allows me to insert my matlab script into my labview program, but the problem I’m having now is the mathscript module isn’t able to run the Simulink file I have. Currently my matlab script runs and saves some variables, then calls the Simulink module inside of it and returns to the matlab script to continue to run, then it gives my labview program the final outputs from the matlab script.
So my question is how should I go about editing the matlab script? Or is there a module I could download that would allow me to just call it directly from my mathscript RT module.

The Mathscript RT node does not actually run code in MATLAB®, but simply runs m script code. If you look in the help for the Mathscript RT Module there is no function call listed to open and run Simulink®. You may be able to accomplish this task using the MATLAB® Script Node which uses ActiveX to call MATLAB® software. If you'd like to try this you can find this node under, Functions >> Mathematics >> Scripts & Formulas >>Script Nodes.
You can find some more information about the Model Interface Toolkit and it's new features here, https://decibel.ni.com/content/groups/product-pulse/blog/2013/10/07/adieu-labview-simulation-interfa... or on it's product page.

Is there a setting on the iphone that will allow ical entries on the iphone to sink to my other computers
Thank-you

Welcome to the Apple community.
First check that all your settings are correct, that calendar syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
Make sure the calendars you are using are in your 'iCloud' account and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud account (you can do this by clicking/tapping the calendar button in the top left corner of the application ), non iCloud calendars will not sync.
If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your calendars are in the iCloud account, you might try unchecking calendar syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling calendar syncing settings.

I cannot sync Ical on my iMac with my professional calendar (outlook web access). and I don't understand why it doesn't work since I have already made it with my iPhone. Help

Hello,
I bought an iMac few days ago. I would like to sync ical on my iMac with my professional calendar I use in my company (from outlook web access).
I was easy to manage it on my iPhone (I just add a new "exchange" mail account and ask for a calendar sync only) and it worked very quickly.
But I cannot do it with the iMac, and I don't undersatnd why?
the domain is is used for my iPhone is the following :
owa.companyname.com
I tried all the solutions I found in this forum but it doesn't work.
Many thanks in advancefor your help.

Syncing iCal and Address Book w/ my Treo 650 (Who overwrites who?)

I am able to sync both address book and ical with my treo 650.
My question is:
1. When I change a date or contact's info on my treo why does it not change that entry on my Mac? It adds a different one.
2. Each time I sync I get the message for both Address book and iCal that entries will be deleted or modified on my computer. The numbers are not consistent each time I sync. I usually have to cancel the sync because many entries (I'm not sure which ones) will be deleted. How do I tell iSync or Hotsync Manager that my Computer gets priority?
Sometimes I get the conflict window that asks which entries (iCal or Treo) should be kept.
Any ideas?

Welcome to Apple Discussions.
The synchronization framework should not behave as you describe. It appears that your truth database has become irreversibly corrupted, a condition which is easily corrected. Repeated cancellation of synchronization events likely has contributed to or amplified the underlying data corruption issue.
A couple of basics: all participants in this process, generally referred to as synchronization clients, are peers. They do not interact directly with each other, but rather through a process of pushing changes to and pulling changes from the truth database. You cannot set one to 'override' another, though you can reset both history [which empties the truth database, leaves your clients registered and your data intact, and results in a slow, initial synchronization during the next triggered event] and data—if using .Mac Sync—[which allows you to replace all contact, event and task records stored on your computer with those stored on the .Mac servers, or visa versa.]
The Conflict Manager is only invoked when iSync sees records with differences it cannot resolve at the field, rather than record, level. In such cases, it asks you to choose one record which most accurately represents the collection of data you want to keep for that contact, event or task.
To reset your synchronization history and prompt a complete restoration of your truth database, do this:
• launch iSync
• open the Preferences… dialog
• press the Reset Sync History… button
This Apple developer document explains how these process work, and may clarify some of these issues for you.

Why can I no longer sync iCal and contacts without iCloud?

I dont use iCloud basically because by doing so all your data - specifically your contacts and calendar - gets uploaded to an Apple server where it sits for ever. If you decide you want to stop using iCloud (like you decide for some weird reason to use windows instead...or you move somewhere where there's no internet - its possible) it deletes your data from the device you have unsubscribed from. This basically means once you are on iCloud there is no going back. Apple basically acts as if it owns you and your data and inorder to access it (excude me but my calender and contacts list belongs to me) its obligitory to use Apple and iCloud...if you dont it gets deleted and is gone for ever.
So I sync via USB/WiFi...but now after 'upgrading' to Mavericks this option is no longer permitted? You MUST use iCloud.....WHY?? - I dont want to!
I run a business and use iCal to make all my business bookings - these used to sync easily between my iPad and my iMac. Now it doesnt unless I hand over the rights to all my data for all enternity to Apple inc.
This is my stuff and it doesnt belong to Apple - I want to keep it that way
How can I sync iCal and Contacts without signing away ownership of my diary and contacts to Apple?
Am I going to have to ditch my Mac?? Why wasnt this more widely publicized??
Anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks

Thanks for the reply Arthur. Actually, I just got off the phone with an apple rep telling me you can't downgrade, and that yes, apple actually IS forcing you to use iCloud - if, that is, you actually want to be able to sync your contacts or calendar. Apparently you are special and know something different, so please enlighten the rest of us.
Here is one way

Here is another

Here is yet another
If your Mavericks came with anything other than Mavericks pre-installed
OS X Mavericks: Revert to a previous OS X version
Also there are a host of other Cloud services you can use. You do not have to use iCloud at all. Although there ARE over 320+ million iCloud presently active, so it is extremely popular with users.

I currently use an iPhone, an iPad, and a Mac computer for business. The three devices have Contacts Managers that sync with each other through both Google and through Mobile Me. Currently, this has created a mess of duplicate contacts. Please researc

I currently use an iPhone, an iPad, and a Mac computer for business. The three devices have Contacts Managers that sync with each other through both Google and through Mobile Me. Currently, this has created a mess of duplicate contacts. Please advise me on the steps necessary for removing these duplicates and establishing a syncing solution that doesn't regenerate the duplicates. There are several applications available that remove duplicates, but I am not sure which ones work or don't work. I want information on this, but most importantly I want to understand how to fix this problem permanently. Also, I read somewhere that Mac's new operating system, Lion, can help deal with duplicates. I don't have Lion, but I would be willing to get it, if this would fix the problem.

Had the same problem with 4 devices (two computers, an iPhone and an iPod). The solution is simple: open the Address Book application in your mac, ask it to locate duplicate entries (under one of the top menu items, "edit" I think), and then ask it to consolidate them: it took me all of three seconds after I figured it out: worked like a charm! PS: if you have more than one mac with unconected Address Books, repeating the operation in the second one may be a good idea.

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
iCloud: Using iCloud Calendars with Calendar and iCal
More general information about iCloud is available here -

Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

New to MAC - trying to sync iphone and Mac Pro with imac

Hi,
Just made the switch to Mac. Purchased my Mac Pro yesterday, loaded .Mac, and plugged in my iPhone to the computer. Followed the steps to Sync iCal and contacts from iPhone and although it is registering there is a phone and downloading photos, it is not syncing anything else.
The steps I took were System Preferences, .mac, and checked the relevant boxes. It indicates syncing is taking place but the calendar on iPhone and Mac Pro are not syncing.
Could anyone help with advice? SHould I be able to sync easily between the iPhone and the Mac Pro with .mac?

You use iTunes to sync an iPhone - not *.Mac Sync* or iSync.
*.Mac Sync* is for syncing between Macs, and iSync is for syncing third-party mobile phones and PDAs.
