Sync iCal to Outlook

My iCal and Outlook are not in sync.  I can put events on Outlook and they move to my iCal.  But I can't add to iCal and have it show up in Outlook.  What do I need to do? 

iCal is client like Outlook is client. Both can be used to get email from servers (POP3, IMAP, Exchange).
You may be able to export email form Outlook and import into iCal; or sync both Outlook and iCal with the same server (Exchange, Google, etc) - but you can't sync Outlook directly with iCal.

  • 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!

  • Syncing iCal to Outlook Mac 2011

    Folks,
    I am running the latest version of Lion with Outlook 2011 for Mac. My principal calendar is maintained on Google as it sync quite well with Pocket Informant.  Despite many attempts I am unable to sync iCal with Outlook 2011. Google sync quite well with iCal via a utility, but despite setting sync services to on, Outlook 2011 does not sync with iCal. Can anyone offer suggestions here?
    Many Thanx

    The bottom line is that Office for Mac does not support CalDAV, which is the type of calendar hosted by Google and iCloud. Outlook will only sync calendars with iCal that were:
    1. Created in Outlook.
    2. Created in iCal "On My Mac".
    If a calendar is created "On My Mac", then it is hosted locally (on your Mac) and Outlook can sync to it.
    If it's created in Google or iCloud, then it's hosted on a server in the cloud. iCal syncs to that server using CalDAV. Outlook doesn't support CalDAV, so it can't sync with those calendars.

    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?

  • 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,
    Iris
    Powerbook G4   Mac OS X (10.4.5)   PC/XP Pro

    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.

    Is it possible to link iCal with Outlook?

    I have tried everything I know to sync outlook for mac calendar with ical.
    It would help to know what "tried everything" means. What version of Outlook for Mac do you have? It worked fine for me with OS 10.6.8 as well as OS 10.7.4 now with Outlook 14.2.3.
    Perhaps you could try the steps listed in Apple's Knowledgebase article and/or the MS Support article regardless of what the problem stated is. Also, if you have not already done so, try the Microsoft Community as it is a Microsoft issue.

  • How to sync ical to outlook ical using Maverick

    Can outlook cal be synced to ical

    iCal is client like Outlook is client. Both can be used to get email from servers (POP3, IMAP, Exchange).
    You may be able to export email form Outlook and import into iCal; or sync both Outlook and iCal with the same server (Exchange, Google, etc) - but you can't sync Outlook directly with iCal.

    Does it have to be an applet?
    If you want the same behaviour as in the code with traffic lights, change
    class MortgageApplet extends JApplet implements ActionListener {
    to
    class MortgageApplet extends JFrame implements ActionListener {
    and change
    public void init() {
    to
    public MortgageApplet() {

  • Syncing calendars using Outlook 2007 from iCal Server

    Hi,
    I would like to know the procedure to sync calendars using Outlook 2007 from iCal Server.
    I'm setting up Internet Calendar on Outlook 2007 from == Tools> Account Settings> Internet Calendars>New> Enter the URL and click on add button
    Post that, I'm getting an error:
    "Error: Cannot verify or add the Internet Calendar in Outlook. Verify the link is a valid calendar link:

    Looking forward some response soon.
    Thanks!!

    Hi!
    That is never going to work if you are looking for 2-way sync with iCal server. You need a 3rd party application to do that, like ical4ol or the open source Outlook sync plugin available here: http://caldav.calconnect.org/implementations/clients.html.
    Or alternatively, use another mail client like eMClient for mail and calendaring.

  • ICal, MobileMe, Outlook sync

    Hey all, thanks in advance for your help. I use an iMac, MacBook Pro, and iPhone for personal use. I also use a Dell PC at work and my agency requires that my appointments be posted in the Outlook calendar which utilizes Microsoft Exchange server, and the OS on my Dell at work is MS XP Pro.
    I currently use iCal on my iPhone during appointments to schedule next sessions with clients. Those appointments then get synced with mobileme to my laptop and to my iMac at home. Fine. BUT, I also want (and am required by my work) to have those same appointments on my Outlook calendar on the Dell desktop.
    When I go to the MobileMe control panel for Windows app on my Dell desktop Control Panel, it says that "Syncing of MS Outlook contacts and calendars is not possible when Outlook is configured to use MS Exchange Server" - which ours is. So it appears I cannot use MobileMe to sync my calendar.
    I also thought, well, I can hard-wire sync my phone to my desktop at work, but when I do that, the sync process won't take the iCal data and draw it from the phone to be put in Outlook calendar, it wants to replace the information on my iPhone with the Outlook calendar data which I erased - so there is nothing on my Outlook calendar at this point. My thought was once I was able to do the first transfer of data from iCal on my iPhone to the MS Outlook calendar, then syncing would happen as needed from that point forward. I don't want to allow it to transfer from Outlook TO my iPhone the first time though because it will erase everything on my iPhone iCal, I think.
    I'm so frustrated. Does anyone know how I can successfully use my iPhone, MacBook, iMac, and me.com on the web - to add appointments to my iCal calendars, and then make sure that data gets transferred to my Outlook calendar on my work desktop? I don't need to use my desktop outlook calendar to enter appointments, just need to have them appear there.
    HELP!! and thanks.
