Publish Exchange calendar from iCal

I've gotten my Exchange calendar to work with iCal nicely using 10.6. This is great. But:
Is there a way to publish an Exchange calendar that is in iCal? The "Publish" option is grayed out for my Exchange calendars.
I can publish other calendars just fine (after forcing iCal to work in 32 bit mode).
Note that I am not talking about syncing to MobileMe. I know that this is not supported. However, I expected that I could "publish" to a web server, such as the one hosted by MobileMe.
For a while now, I've done this by using Entourage to sync Exchange to iCal. The Entourage calendar can be published to the web. I was really hoping that with 10.6 I could finally stop using Entourage.

I'm having a similar issue. My boss has set up a calendar in exchange that is synced with my iCal, and the appointments do appear, however my personal calendar from exchange is not showing any of my appointments... any ideas?

Remove Exchange Calendar from iCal

I have an Exchange Calendar in iCal (Mountain Lion) that I want to remove. How can I do this? If I select it and choose Edit the Delete option is greyed out. The account is not listed in Preferences > Advanced either.
I want to delete it because every time I receive an invitiation in Outlook for Mac, the invite is being placed in the iCal calendar, but does not appear in my Outlook calendar.

I think I discovered where iCal/Calendar is getting the Exchange calendar data from. Initially I wondered whether the iPad/iPhone were doing something odd, but no, the Exchange mail account was set to sync Contacts and Calendar on both, via Active Sync.
I then plugged both devices into the Macbook and opened iTunes and checked the Info tab - "Sync Calendars" was not ticked.
I then discovered that in Mountain Lion a change was made to the Mac System Preferences under Mail, Contacts and Calendar - I saw my Exchange account listed and so clicked to edit it. It brought up a screen showing that Calendar was ticked. I unticked this and my appointments sent to me in Outlook are no longer appearing in ical - which is what i wanted.
Hope this might help someone else.

Exchange calendar from iPad doesn't sync with iCal

Hi there, I hope this is the right community to post my problem....
OK, I'm using an iPad 3 (iOS 5.1) which syncs rather nice with the Exchange account (mail, contacts, calendar) of my company.
But if I try to sync the Exchange calendar from the iPad via iTunes with my Mac at home (24'' iMac DualCore 2006, OS10.6.8) the Exchange calendar won't show up in iCal. Every other calendar I created for test showed up just fine...but not the one I sync'd with my Exchange.
Any idea how I get this to work ?

Syncing your Exchange calendar on your Mac through your iPad isn't the best approach. What you should do instead is sync your Mac with Exchange directly. In other words, treat the iPad--Exchange sync and the Mac--Exchange sync independently. This is what I do, and it works great on my Mac.
Your iPad--Exchange setup is working fine, so leave that alone. Turning then to the Mac-Exchange setup, I'm not in front of my Mac at the moment, but basically to set up Exchange on your Mac, go into the email preferences and select new account. Configure it as an Exchange account and enter the relevant information. You will need to know the "EWS" (Exchange Web Service) address... it is usually something like "outlook.companyname.com" and your regular login info. For me, it was the same web address as if I wanted to access my email from a webpage using the MS Outlook Web Access feature. Your IT folks can help with this if necessary.
Once you set this up, you can also sync calendars, reminders, and contacts onto your Mac too. And the best part is that this will sync with your iPad!

IPod not showing all Calendars from iCal

I just got a new iPod classic and when I hook it up to my MacBook and sync my calendars from iCal not all of them show up. I have tried syncing all and some selected, but if it didnt show in all, it wont show even checked off. Is this a bug in the system?
Thanks

Hello Kristen,
Have you double checked the media type of these TV Shows in iTunes? To do so, locate the TV Show, right->click on it and choose "Get Info" from the Shortcut Menu. When the window pops up, head over to the Options tab. There should be an option for *Media Type* with a drop down list next to it. Make sure that is set to "TV Show" and nothing else. Then hit OK when you are finished and sync the updated changes to your iPod.
Another thing to check is the settings you have configured from under the *TV Show* tab for your iPod in iTunes, when you have it plugged in. It may be set to sync all "unplayed" episodes. You will want to change this to something that is more fitting.
I would start with these two possibilities, and then we will go from there if need be.
Hope this helps.

How do I remove a lunar calendar from Ical -- it is not listed as a calendar in Ical

How do I remove a lunar calendar from Ical -- it is not listed as a calendar in Ical when I open Ical

Look at some of the lunar events, and see what keywords they are using - eg moon or phase. Use one of those keywords in the search box. Find the earliast occurence in the list and delete it. This may take out all subsequent occurences, or you may have to delete them individually.

Export a single calendar from iCal

How do I export a single calendar from iCal? I have several calendars but only want to send someone one of them.

Click on calendars, select calendar wchich you want to export then go to File>Export>Export... and save file on the desktop and then send file via email.
But if by calendar you mean calendar Event, then double click on event and in "Add Invitation" field add email of the person which should have access to your event.

ISync deleted a calendar from iCal

I'm very new to the Mac world. My PC died at Thanksgiving and I'm still getting used to my new iMac. I am using iSync to sync between my new iMac and my very old Handspring Visor Prism. Things are going remarkably well except now that I have moved all my (11 years worth) calendar appts/events to the iMac, I'd like to stop storing and syncing them to the Visor, since I'm worried that it will fail if it gets too full.
My bright idea was to create a separate calendar with all events from 97-08 and then use the "home" calendar from 2009 going forward. So on my next sync, I only checked "Home" to sync so that there would be less on my Visor. Doing this, iSync successfully synchronized the Home calendar (w/my newer events), but deleted my "old" calendar from iCal. I don't understand why that happened. I thought unselecting a calendar in iSync would do the same thing as the "Do Nothing" option in HotSync (literally, don't sync, but also, don't delete!).
Is there any way to keep some events in an iCal calendar but not on your handheld device?
Thanks,
Tracy

The deletion of your unchecked iCal calendar would or should have only occurred if you first deleted the the matching calendar on your Palm device prior to the next synchronization event, and did not opt to reset the framework as described below. The appropriate 'reaction' of the Sync Services framework on your machine is to delete matching calendar event and task information in your truth database, and distribution those deletion changes to all other synchronized applications, devices and servers.
If you had simply unchecked the calendar in your drop-down iSync device configuration pane then reset the framework using the option in the iSync Preferences… dialog to do so and subsequently overwritten the contents of your Palm device—as opposed to merging data with it—your calendar would have remained in iCal but matching data would have been removed from the Palm device.
Whenever you seek to make a substantial change such as you did, you should back up your iCal and Address Book records using the built-in options in each application to do so, BEFORE you next execute a synchronization event. In that way, it's easy to 'recover' data when an unexpected result occurs.

Delete calendar from ical

How do I delte a calendar from iCal.
I right click on it and the delete function is not an option.

View colleagues' exchange calendar in iCal?

Hi!
I can see my own Exchange calendar just fine with iCal 4 from the corporate Exchange server. However, colleagues have also shared their Exchange calendars with me - which I can see just fine on Webmail / Exchange 2007, but I would also like to view these shared calendars in iCal.
Any help would be well appreciated!
Thank you,
Greg.

Hi guys,
"googling" I found this applescript:
tell application "iCal"
set color of calendar "Calendar" to choose color default color {0, 0, 0}
end tell
Waiting for an Apple fix, you can use this. It's wok like a charm!

How to edit/publish a calendar from multiple computers?

In our small business we have up to three people doing scheduling using iCal. We would like to use our separate computers to edit/publish calendars. Right now, we can subscribe, but not publish calendars from multiple machines.
Is there a way to remotely log in to the Mac we publish the calendars on, or can we do this through the web?
Sorry if this has been covered before . . . thanks!

The only way I know to "log in" to another computer is through the Apple's sofware: Apple Remote Desktop (a bit overkill if all you want to do is edit a calendar)
It is not possible to edit another user's calendar, you can only sibscribe.
Perhaps a 3rd party will have this ability soon (Chronos is coming out with a major upgrade to their Group/Personal Organizer product.
DayLite by Market Circle is another product which may let you do what you want but it doesn't currently sync with iCal, thus you would lose all the extended functionality of iCal.
Sorry none of these meet your current needs,
Do look at CalTalk if you need to share calendars locally without publishing them to the web. (How do you share now?)
There are also some web based calendar programs (eg BaseCamp) but you have to always be connected to the web and pay a subscrition fee.

Iweb ('08) - importing a calendar from ical

I'm an iweb beginner and am trying to embed an ical into a webpage (in the form of an availability/booking calendar). I'm having a couple of problems:
1. When I try to scale my imported calendar down, I loose some data (chops off Sundays....not helpful)
2. Even though my ical was set on "month" when I hit publish, it displays as "week" when I import it. How do I get it to import as month and stay like that (without the user having to click on "month" and change it themselves.
I've noticed other posts suggest the use of a google calendar rather than ical....is this because a google calendar is more manageable?

"....is this because a google calendar is more manageable?"
Google calendar is quite manageable. I've been using it for several months. It's easy to customize. Works well with HTML snippet in iWeb. ...been trying different things. Take a look at the most recent version of what I am doing with it on my website.

Send me a note from there if you have questions.
If you use iPhone, I recommend an app called Pocket Informant. I have been using this to update my Google calendar from anywhere I have a signal in order to keep my booking/availability current.

Publishing multiple calendars in iCal

Is there a way to publish multiple calendars in one view. It seems that I can
only view one calendar at a time. I want to be able to overlay all of my calendars
so we all know who's doing what when.
I''m a Mom with two girls with lots of sports activities, I want the girls to be able to view all events in all calendars like I can see on my Mac.
Thanks for any input.
Roberta

Hi Roberta,
You can publish multiple calenders by creating a Calendar Group. Here are some styp-by-step instructions:
- Open the menu 'File' and click the option 'New Calendar Group'.
- Once this new Calendar Group has been created, rename it (for instance to 'Family', 'Sports' or whatever you like).
- After renaming the Calendar Group, add the calendars which you wish to publish.
- FInally... publishing Calendar Group works the same as for single calendars (select the Calender Group and choose from the menu 'Calendar' the option 'Publish').
I hope this works.

Manually change color of Exchange calendar in iCal?

Good evening. Got kind of an odd problem...and not really sure when it became an issue, although I think it happened after I upgraded to Lion. But for whatever reason I cannot get to the 'Get Info' part of one of my calendars that is an Exchange calendar. I can right-click on all of my iCloud calendars and get to the get info section in order to change colors, sharing, etc, but when I click the get info option on my Exchange calendar, nothing happens.
Not sure when this became the case, because I know I used to be able to change the color.
Was wondering if maybe there was a preference file that I could manually edit in order to change the color, or if someone else has run into this and found a solution.
Thanks a bunch.

Hi guys,
"googling" I found this applescript:
tell application "iCal"
set color of calendar "Calendar" to choose color default color {0, 0, 0}

Apple advice on importing Entourage calendar from iCal - taking forever!

Hi everyone,
got onto Apple support today asking about moving our entourage calendar to iCal. So, sounded simple enough. Opened iCal, chose import, selected entourage and away we go. 7 hours later (no, I'm not exaggerating) it has got about 3/4 of the way and now the progress bar hasn't moved more than about a millimeter in the past hour. What the heck do I do now? It's almost 2am here - just let it continue running until the morning? At this rate it might take the rest of the week to complete!
Why would it take so long? Is this normal? Any faster way to achieve this? What about if I sync entourage and iCal, then when everything is there, export the entourage calendar from within iCal, then delete it, and then import it into the Home or Work calendar - would that work. This is so frustrating

Same thing here. Drives me crazy. Been importing for days now, always have to force quit the app since it's stuck at around 75% of the import.
Is there any way to get this to work?
