Adding holidays to ical

How do you add holiday to ICal.

Hi,
You can either add them yourself or what most people do is subscribe to them. See my post here for some lists of subscription calendars.

Is there a way to import "Jewish Holidays" into iCal? On Gmail calendar or Outlook you can add the Jewish Calendar so all Holidays are added each year, is this available for iCal too?

Well it easy.
Step 1 : Open iCal and from the Calendar Menu, choose Find Subscriptions...
Step 2 : The link will open in Safari, just find the right holidays calendar for your country and download it.
Step 3 : It will get automatically added to iCal.
For US Holidays you can use this : http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/calendars/usholidaycalendar.html
Enjoy!!

View holidays in iCal 5.0.3

sorry may be a dup...
how do I view holidays in iCal 5.0.3???

Apple does not comment on their design decisions, and certainly won't do so here. If you want to comment to Apple, you can do so via their feedback page:
http://www.apple.com/feedback/macosx.html
The only way to "resolve" the issue as of right now is to use some other calendar application. But even BusyCal, the most common iCal alternative, doesn't display more than one month at a time in the sidebar.

Importing Holidays into iCal 4.0.3?

How do I import U.S. holidays into iCal 4.0.3? I can't seem to find this anywhere, not even in iCal support and this is very standard with calendaring software.

Heather,
Can you help me figure out why all of your Holiday's are different from your other events?
When/how were these Holiday events entered?
Have you checked iCal>Preferences...>Advanced>Turn on time zone support?

What is the safest way to get 2012 US Holidays on iCal?

What is the safest way to get 2012 US Holidays on iCal?

Besides being out of date, I found errors in the US holiday calendar published by Apple here:
http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/calendars/
Instead, I've subscribed to the US calendar at this site:
http://www.mozilla.org/projects/calendar/holidays.html
Copy the URL weblink (http://www.mozilla.org/projects/calendar/caldata/USHolidays.ics) for the US holidays, and use it to "subscribe" to this calendar. Once you've subscribed, each holiday will populate your local calendar.
This US Holiday calendar is pretty good. It includes many Christian religious holidays, as well as patriotic holidays. There are also separate entries for Federal holidays (designated as OPM). I find this useful since I deal with the Feds on a regular basis.
Edit: Just found more subsciption Holiday calendars here: http://www.calendarlabs.com/ical-calendar-holidays.php

Holidays in iCal

I imported Holidays in my Calendar (no abonnement) and they appear in the Cloud and 2 Macs.
But one of my 3 macs doesn't sync Holidays in iCal via cloud. All the other dates work...?

Start up iCal. On the menu bar click on "Calendar".
Click on the last option "Find shared calendars".
You're in business.
Thank you jerry, I knew it must be simple!

Don't use this calendar.... Apple has not updated it since 2010.
I subscribe to the US Holidays calendar published by Marcus Yoo and Rob Craver here:
http://www.mozilla.org/projects/calendar/holidays.html
Best part is that it contains both patriotic and religious holidays, and they keep it up to date! Subscribing means that as they update it, the new entries are pushed to your calendar -- very cool! I've subscribed to it on all my devices (Mac, iPhone and iPad)

How can I add US Holidays to ical

I would like to find out how to install US Holidays so ical will show them on my iMac, iPhone and iPad along with all my other appointments.

I haven't added events but am getting "This calendar is unreadable. No events have been added to your iCal calendar"

I recently started getting the message "This calendar is unreadable. No events have been added to your iCal calendar". However, I typically add my events by typing them myself either on my MacBook Pro or my iPhone. I don't import from outside sources. I don't know if it's related or just coincidental that around the same time, events that I add to my MacBook Pro are not syncing to my iPhone, but the events added by iPhone seem to appear on my MacBook Pro and my MiniMac. Is there a way to find the event that is being referenced in this error message??

iPhone:
Plug in your iPhone
Go to iTunes > Your iPhone > Info and ensure that calendars is not checked off to sync -- if you are using MobileMe to sync, this option should not be checked
On both Macs:
1.) Go to Apple > System Preferences > MobileMe > Sync and remove the check Mark for calendars. With the new MobileMe calendar system there is no need to have this checked. Close the MobileMe window once this is complete.
2.) Open iCal and then go to iCal > Preferences > Accounts and remove the MobileMe account from here with the minus sign.
3.) Go to iCal > Quit iCal
4.) Remove the following to the trash and restart your computer:
Home > Library > Caches > com.apple.ical
Home > Library > Calendars > Calendar Cache, Cache, Cache 1, 2, 3, etc. (Do not remove Sync Cache or Theme Cache if present)
Home > Library > Preferences > com.apple.ical (There may be more than one of these. Remove them all.)
5.) Open iCal and go to iCal > Preferences > Accounts
-- If the MobileMe Account is already here remove it again and then re-add it being very careful to use the correct name and password (for your 10.5 system follow these steps for re-adding: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4330)
-- If the MobileMe account is not already here, add it in.
iCal will download your calendars from the MobileMe server. Watch and see if you get the error message. If it completes the download (little spinning gear stops spinning next to the MobileMe calendar) go ahead and add a new uniquely named event to one of your MobileMe calendars on both computers and see if it syncs between.
Let us know what happens.

"iCal can't read this calendar file. No events have been added to your iCal calendar."

How do I deal with this error message-"iCal can’t read this calendar file. No events have been added to your iCal calendar." ? .ics vs .vcs?
Thanks

Greetings,
What version of the Mac OS and what version of iCal are you running?
Are you using MobileMe calendars (or any other server based calendars like Google) in your iCal?
While you answer those questions you can try the following troubleshooting:
1. First make an iCal backup: Click on each calendar on the left hand side of iCal 1 at a time highlighting it's name and then going to File Export > Export and saving the resulting calendar file to a logical location for safekeeping.
2. Remove the following to the trash and restart your computer:
Home > Library > Caches > com.apple.ical
Home > Library > Calendars > Calendar Cache, Cache, Cache 1, 2, 3, etc. (Do not remove Sync Cache or Theme Cache if present)
Home > Library > Preferences > com.apple.ical (There may be more than one of these. Remove them all.)
---NOTE: Removing these files may remove any shared (CalDAV) calendars you may have access to. You will have to re-add those calendars to iCal > Preferences > Accounts.
Once the computer is back up and running open iCal and test.
Hope that helps.

Anyone have a method of importing national holidays into iCal?

I am looking for method to import national holidays into iCal.

Jimmy,
Try iCalShare.
You can also try using iCal>Calendar>Find Subscriptions... I did notice a "Page Not Found" when using that method, but it has been working in the past.
