A todo list and the iphone calendar.

Hi all,
I'm looking for an to do application, that will show up also in the calendar on my iphone.
I've been trying to find one that will do this, and either I'm not sure what they are talking about, or there just isn't one out there.
Basically, I would like (from the iphone itself), is to have an application that is either a to-do app, or task application, that when I create a task it will show up in the calendar which is on the iphone.
I thought I had one that would sync with google calendar and from google calendar I can then sync with the caldendar on the iphone, but have not yet gotten google calender and my iphone connected yet.
I would be ok, if I have to take this long way around, but I just want to make sure what I am trying to going to work.
appreciate any help.
Christine

Thanks for the response. I will stop trying to do the obvious.

  • ICal To-Do's and the iPhone Calendar

    Why is it that at this stage of development, Apple has yet to offer a solution to manage and sync iCal to-do's with the iPhone Calendar? Am I missing something? It seems obvious that Apple is giving third party developers the opportunity to write the many wonderful To-Do apps out there, and there are many. The problem is, this doesn't fix the problem of sync-ability. I know that there are ways to sync between these third party apps and things such as their own desktop software (Things), which will then sync to to iCal. There are others that will sync to Google Calendar and/or Google Docs, but this is hardly a simple solution. There are always complications when you start syncing too many things to too many places, as the software doesn't always line up pretty.
    I'm basically just looking for a simple solution to use iCal, my iPhone Calendar and a To-Do function that will sync seamlessly with both. The most natural thing would be for Apple to include To-Do creation in the iPhone Calendar app with full sync capability with iCal. I find it shocking that Apple hasn't written for this.
    There are nice applications out there such as Pocket Informant that integrates a beautiful (and much more powerful calendaring function) with a To-Do function within the same application, but they have no ability to sync with iCal, nor do they have a desktop version of their software.
    If anyone has any ideas on this, or advice on the best way to integrate iCal, To-Do's and the iPhone Calendar, please let me know. In the meantime, I will post feedback to the Apple developers with a seemingly obvious enhancement request.

    With all due respect, I completely disagree with you. Integrating To-Do's and calendar events is a very natural way of organizing things. There is an app called Pocket Informant which does a very nice job in integrating the two. Even Apple thinks they are (and could be related), or else why even include to-do's in iCal to begin with? You see, it is as if they went half way in their effort. They provide something because they think it could be a good idea, but then they put no time or effort into actually making it useful for the end user. The fact that to-do's and notes show up in mail is also pointless. Why do I need mail to see my to-do's on my computer when I could just look in iCal, which is where they were created in the first place.
    Omni focus is a very powerful app. I just think that it is way overkill. What good is an app that helps you get things done, when using it actually impedes getting those things done? It literally takes so much time and effort to work with Omni (if you really want to use it correctly), that you don't have any time left over for the things you need to get done.
    And by the way, don't talk about hourly rates when you use words like "Gentlements", "prolly" (for, I am assuming probably", "proccess" (there is one c) "offence" (it is offense, unless you are from the UK, which I am assuming you are not), to name a few. Anyway, spelling aside, you shouldn't really be judging what people make based on whether someone thinks an app is expensive. The fact is, Omni focus happens to be very expensive. I am not saying that it is not worth it. In fact, I really don't know. I know that it is powerful, but for someone looking for a simple way to manage the important tasks in life, Omni is not for everyone, especially when you are spending upwards of $80 when something like Put Things Off (which I like a lot better) costs around $3.

  • Where did the iPhone Calendar list function(s) go with iOS7? The Calendar has gone all 'spread sheet' on me and definitely not user friendly. Please advise.

    Where did the iPhone Calendar list function(s) go with iOS7?  The Calendar has gone all 'spread sheet' on me. If you select an item (grey dot) from the month display it will open up the 'spread sheet' at the current time of day, not necessarily when the calendar entry takes place.  I liked iOS6 where you could turn your iPhone to landscape mode and get that special 'spread sheet' feel if that's what you're into.  Has a 'List' presentation been removed from the iPhone Calendar with iOS7?

    The List view is displayed by tapping the Search magnifying glass.

  • HT1296 I am using Google Calendar.  I just bought an Iphone.  I got it to sync.  Everything on my Google calendar did go on my Iphone calendar.  But now I want the Iphone calendar to send and change the Google calendar.  How do I get that to happen????

    This is a question?????????
    I just bought an Iphone 5s.  I did what Google said to sync their calendar to my new Iphone calendar.  Guess what it worked.  But I want the Iphone calendar to send back to the google calendar and it is not doing that. So the question is Is this possible?????  If so how do I do it????

    Yeah, you fried the phone big time.
    Go into iMessage settings and set the Caller ID to your phone number.

  • I have an iMac with 10.9.1 and an iPhone 5 also updated to the newest system and I cannot get a sync set up between Ical and the iPhone or Outlook 2011 mac calendar with the iphone

    I have an iMac with 10.9.1 and an iPhone 5 also updated to the newest system and I cannot get a sync set up between Ical and the iPhone or Outlook 2011 mac calendar with the iphone. I would perfer using outlook but will settle for the Imac calendar

    It depends on what iMac you have. If it is an old PPC (G4 orG5) iMac then no further upgrades are possible. If it an Intel iMac:
    Start by checking if you can run Snow Leopard:
    Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
    http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
    (NB: PowerPC applications can still be run in Snow Leopard using Rosetta, but they will not work in later versions of OS X.)
    The OS 10.6 Snow Leopard install DVD is available for $19.99 from the Apple Store:
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    and in the UK:
    http://store.apple.com/uk/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard to bring it up to 10.6.8, or download the combo update from here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399
    Check via Software Update whether any further updates are required, particularly to iTunes.
    You should now see the App Store icon in iTunes, and you now need to set up your account:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4479
    You can now upgrade to Mavericks OS 10.9 for free IF you have one of the following Macs, with not less than 2GB of RAM, and at least 8GB of available space on your hard drive:
    iMac (Mid-2007 or later)
    MacBook (13-inch Aluminum, Late 2008), (13-inch, Early 2009 or later)
    MacBook Pro (13-inch, Mid-2009 or later), (15-inch, Mid/Late 2007 or later), (17-inch, Late 2007 or later)
    MacBook Air (Late 2008 or later)
    Mac Mini (Early 2009 or later)
    Mac Pro (Early 2008 or later)
    Xserve (Early 2009)
    iCloud system requirements:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4759
    If you cannot run Mavericks you can purchase the code to use to download Lion from the App Store (Lion requires an Intel-based Mac with a Core 2 Duo, i3, i5, i7 or Xeon processor and 2GB of RAM, running the latest version of Snow Leopard):

  • Google Calendar (gCal) and the iPhone - is this even possible

    Is it possible for me to configure gCal to work with the iPhone Calendar application? Are there any restrictions (I.e. view only, etc?)
    Much thanks in Advance!
    -Sig

    You can do it, it takes a bit of work.
    (THESE INSTRUCTIONS ARE USEFUL IF YOU HAVE AN APPLE COMPUTER!)
    I did it like this -
    I have a Mobile Me account, so my iPhone calendar syncs automatically to Mobile Me.
    I have iCal on my iMac desktop machine set to sync with Mobile Me also.
    (So, so far, my iPhone and desktop iCal always match)
    THEN: Use Spanning Sync - this is a 3rd party app that you install on your computer. It allows you to sync in both directions (to and from) Google Calendar.
    You just give Spanning Sync the info about your Google Calendar, and it syncs it with the iCal on your computer. Then MobileMe syncs your computer with your iPhone. It works great, because I can put things onto my iPhone calendar, and they'll show up on my work calendar and my home calendar, so my family AND my coworkers can keep abreast of my schedule, and even update it for me if necessary! (Every now and then I'll get a new calendar appointment that says "2:00pm today: Buy chocolate for your wife"!)
    Hope that's useful!

    I purchased holiday add-ons for the UtiliTap Week Calendar.  I wanted basic holidays.  Once added my calendar was flooded with listings for holidays, the majority obscure, repeatedly listed. The "hide calendar" would work only till the next time I opened it. These holidays were listed on the built-in iPhone calendar as well as the UtiliTap Week Calendar. I actually want to delete the two purchases because I tried deleting the UtiliTap Calendar (where I purchased the add-on holidays) and the holidays still showed up on my built in iPhone calendar.

  • Todo list sync with iPhone

    Is there a way to sync todo's generated in iCAL to a todo application on the iPhone and vice versa

    Let's see.
    * Apple puts a "Notes app" on the iPhone, that you can't update via your Apple computer.
    * Apple puts a "To Do List" feature on your computer's iCal application that you can't update via the ICal app on the iPhone.
    *The Apple iCal "To Do List" appears inside Mail application, assuming you think to look there and have your settings done just-so. Hey, why not go the whole hog and make it accessible only via shortwave radio?
    I defy Steve Jobs to use Apple iCal and the other scheduling items for a full week -- without benefit of support staff -- for all of his personal & business appointments. Let's see how he likes it.

  • How can I get  the iPhone Calendar to update reminders from Outlook?

    I have an iPhone 2g v2.0.2 with an Exchange account through work. Everything works flawlessly except one annoying problem: The iPhone calendar does not seem to recognize that I have dismissed or changed a reminder time in Outlook.
    Example: A reminder alert appears on my computer (Windows XP/Outlook 2007/Kerio mail server). I will "Dismiss" the alert only to have it pop up again 10 seconds later presumably because my iPhone didn't get the dismissed reminder message, then syncs back to Outlook that the reminder is still active. I have even opened the item in Outlook, changed or canceled the reminder, saved the item, only to have it pop up again seconds later after the iphone reverts to the original reminder.
    The only way I have found to stop this cycle is to open the item on the iPhone calendar and cancel the reminder.
    Any ideas on how to solve this would be appreciated.
    thanks

    Just so that you know you're not alone, I have a couple clients experiencing the same problem. Have yet to come up with a solution outside of what you've mentioned. Wish I had more to add to the topic.

  • Events moved one hour forward in the Iphone calendar

    Hi,

    2. All the events for full day in the iphone are one day backward.
    For example event that is in all munday in the outlook, is in all sunday.
    I tried to delete the event are sync.
    I tried to force rewrite all the calendar information in the next sync
    I tried to unmark the V in the automatecly clock change.

  • Old entries in the Iphone calendar disappear?

    I just discover my old entries in the Iphone calendar (those more than a month) have disappeared. I’ve done some online search and read that I can adjust the settings in “Sync” by going to ”Mail, Contacts, Calendar”. However, I can only see “New Invitation Alerts”, “Time Zone Support Default” and “Alert Times Sync” when I clicked into ”Mail, Contacts, Calendar”. Why? I’ve already done all the updates. What should I do now so that those old entries in the calendar wont disappear?
