Alarms on calendar subscriptions

Anyone know how to have alarms show up on calendar subscriptions?
Wondering if this was a compatibility problem with the way Google Calendar stores exports alarms, I exported a local calendar from iCal that had an event with an alarm, then I hosted the exported calendar on my local web server, and then subscribed to it. The alarm did not show up on the subscribed version of my local calendar... does iCal not support alarms on subscriptions?

iCal does support alarms on subscriptions, but removes them by default.
If the calendar has alarms in it, you should be able to re-enable them by right-clicking on the calendar name in the SUBSCRIPTIONS list and unchecking the Remove: Alarms box.
You'll see a few other items in those settings that you might want to modify, too.

Ios 7 calendar subscription problem

I am using an iPad 3rd gen. When I updated to ios 7, everything seems to work fine except that my calendar subscriptions do show up in the calendar. I have deleted the accounts and re-added them 2-3 times. When re-adding them, everything seems to look like it will work (i.e., verifies the server just fine), but then the calendar does not show up when I open the calendar app. I have restarted the ipad a few times as well. Still the same. Does anyone else have this issue? Does anyone know how to fix it?
BTW (and for what it's worth), I have had no issues with the same calendar subscriptions on my iphone 4s after installing ios 7.
Thanks for any help you can give.

Close the calendar app and reboot the iPad and see if that fixes it.
Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the Calendar app, then swipe "up" on the calendar app thumbnail to close it.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

How do I add Google calendar subscriptions to iPad iCal?

I was able to add my Google calendar account to iCal on iPad but my calendar subscriptions (delegated) from other users is not displayed. I know there is a wizard to add a subscribed calendar but I don't know how to fill it out:
Settings> Add Account> Other> Add Subscribed Calendar > Server "myserver.com/cal.ics". Where do I get the information to plug between the quotes?
Thanks.

ab1268,
I'm trying to do this very thing. I have multiple google calendars set up (one for each kid, my husband etc.). I want to move to iCal exclusively. Based on your note above, should I export each individual calendar within ical. Remove each from the iCal account and then reimport then into ical? I suppose the risk is low b/c the data still exists in google.
Please advise - I would hate to misstep. Very new to the apple world (aside from iphone / ipad).
Thanks!

HT5373 How do I enable a calendar subscription in my iCloud calendar? I'm using a Windows laptop (Home Office 7) and am trying to get the rugby and footfall fixtures to appear on my iCloud calendar. Thanks for your help.

I suspect you had the same issue I did and downloaded the 64-bit version of the OpenSC libraries, but your firefox is 32-bit. You can see the opensc-pkcs11.dll in the System32 folder via windows explorer, but when you browse that directory via firefox to add the module, you are acutally being redirected to the SysWOW64 directory. Try intstalling the 32-bit OpenSC libraries, and adding the appropriate library from the C:\Windows\SysWOW64 directory.

Is it possible to filter calendar subscription based on a keyword?

I've subscribed to a league calendar subscription in iCal (from google calendars) which will update and change often. I only need to see one team out of the several that are included in this master calendar subscription. Is there any way to filter based on our team name as a keyword? Any applescript or ideas on how this might be accomplished?
If it's possible to handle within Google first, or somehow duplicating the calendar with different settings - I'm desperate at this point to find a workable solution. Thanks!

Hi Prajk, you could use audience targeting for this. An alternative would be to create a view and add a filter so that "Approver" is equal to [Me]

Why, when MobileMe was shuttered, does Apple NOT support calendar subscriptions for iCal (Calendar)? I upgraded to Mountain Lion and cannot migrate my Dutch, U.K., Islamic, or Catholic holiday subscriptions.

Why, when MobileMe was shuttered, does Apple NOT support calendar subscriptions for iCal (Calendar)?
I upgraded to Mountain Lion and cannot migrate my Dutch, U.K., Islamic, or Catholic holiday subscriptions. I had a heck of a time getting my Detroit Tigers Baseball team schedules migrated (but Major League Baseball supported the subscriptions, so it occurred). As I work internationally, having these calendar subscriptions on the new Calendar would be very useful.
If one goes to the Apple site, and seeks calendars [http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/calendars/index1.html], they are shunted to MobileMe [https://www.icloud.com/mobileme/not_found/], with the note "MobileMe is closed. Go to iCloud." But, I do not see how to get subscriptions from iCloud.
Thanks.

The problem is that many of these calendars were hosted on MobileMe. I actually tried about 20 at random, and only two worked! Not all of the failures were ex-MobileMe, some were on other servers but produced 'File Not Found'.
Strangely, this one worked despite its URL:
http://ical.mac.com/ical/UK32Holidays.ics
Until the people who publish these calendars (it's not Apple, they are third-party) wake up and find alternative servers these calendars are not available.
There may be other sources which work - try Googling.

Duplicate alarms for calendar events on N9

I noticed I get multiple alarms for calendar events on my N9. For some events, I get four times the same notification. I also sometimes get notifications for deleted events.
I sync my calendar over bluetooth. Since I had some troubles setting up the sync, I deleted the calendar a few times and synced again. So I have the impression that the alarms of the events of the deleted calendars are still stored in some database. I guess this causes the same alarm to be triggered multiple times and alarms for deleted events to be displayed.
Is there a way to re-generate the internal alarms database?
(I did already upgrade to PR1.1, this didn’t fix it.)

I used BT sync with Windows 7 (64 bit), because I was not able to do USB sync (as N9 is not supported by any Nokia PC sync soft). After that I had a real mess: Each event was multiplied to occur multiple times during a day, thoughout each week, throughour each year, e.g. for example meeting scheduled for 10am on October 20, 2011, occurred a number of times on the same day, and each previous week until 2005 (when my calendar starts). An event that was scheduled back in 2005 occurred each week throughout 2011. The same thing happened to my Outlook. So you can imagine a mess that I got with my calendar after syncing with N9. Thanks that I had intact calendar on my Ipad and was able to restore my Outlook. I had to to manually correct calendar on N9 (because any further attempts to sync with Outlook) resulted in the same mess. When I say manually I mean that I deleted all entries (takes time) and re-entered only ones that I really needed (such as birthdays, other anniversaries and meetings from October 2011 forward). After that I did not risk syncing N9 with Outlook anymore in expectation of a decent sync software from Nokia (which I doubt will come, since even their latest soft Nokia Suite is not supporting N9 (although there some users were able to successfully sync with PC Suite, and some installed previous version of Ovi Suite, upgraded it to Nokia Suite and it works now for them -- but not for my very special N9). Having fianlly lost confidence in Noikia I decided to become a happy user of iPhone (with all or at least most soft needed being put in place by Apple or 3rd parties).

Deactivate all alarms from Calendar?

Hi,
I synchronize my new iPhone with my MacBook Pro without problem.
And I work with my iPhone near my laptop. So now there is something that's not convenient:
I get all alarms twice: from iCal + Calendars
Is there a way to deactivate all alarms from Calendar (in the same way we can do it in iCal Preferences)?
Thanks
PAul

@frogdbs
Yes I already did... But that doesn't stops the alert messages...
@DaVBMan
I tried to sync after selecting to disable all alerts in iCal, hoping that it would be disabled also in Calendars... but unfortunately it doesn't seems to work...
It's a missing feature in Calendars.

Calendar subscriptions not showing up in mountain lion notification centre

Has anyone else had this problem when your calendar subscriptions are not showing up on the notification centre. Everything seems to be turned on in the preferences but I'm not seeing any of my calendar subscriptions entrys showing up in the notification centre.
Please Help.

I had the same problem with my calendar subscriptions and notifications disappearing after upgrading to Mountain Lion (or maybe user error around that same time). Here's how I resolved the issue:
In Calendar application, click "File", and select "New Calendar Subscription". Paste your calendar feed address into the "Calendar URL" box. In my case, I was re-adding my TripIt calendar feed which looked something like this:
webcal://www.tripit.com/feed/ical/private/ABCDEFGabcdefg/tripit.ics

Calendar Subscription Issue

Hi,
I am trying to subscribe to a calendar but when I select File > New Calendar Subscription no box appears in which to enter information.
I'm guessing (hoping!) some box is unchecked somewhere which is stopping me moving forward but any help with this would be much appreciated!
Thanks in advance.

One other thing to try.
Reset sync history again.
In the same window as the reset sync history, there is a check box to disable automatic syncing for all iphones and ipods.
Put a check mark in this box.
Now click ok on the preferences window.
Connect the iphone and go to the info tab.
At the bottom of the info page there is a check box to replace all calendar data on the iphone.
Check this box and click ok.
if there was any corrupt calendar data on the iphone, this will overwrite it.
Hope this helps.

Can't create an alarm in calendar

Hi,
I can't create an alarm in Calendar.
It says,"You can’t add or change events in the Birthdays calendar."
All I want to do is create a simple alarm to remind me later today.
Is that too much to ask for?

You can set default alert for calendar
Calendar > Preferences... > Alerts > do it here
or use a Reminder

Calendar subscriptions synced via MM can no longer be turned off

Calendar subscriptions synced via MM can no longer be turned off on the iPhone, as far as I can tell. Unless anyone can figure out a workaround. Anyone? Got any ideas?
Otherwise...
All those calendars of your friends, events, etc. that you subscribe to on your Mac...if you use MobileMe for syncing, they are now going to be cluttering up your iPhone calendar, and apparently there is no way to get rid of them (unless you set them all up manually via CalDAV. This is a change that apparently occurred with 3.1.
See http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1213
Please visit this site to protest: http://www.apple.com/feedback/mobileme.html
Thanks.

If you draw a picture of how calendars get from your Mac to your phone, it might be easier to sort out. MobileMe calendars sync with your iPhone over the air (either AT&T or WiFi). Calendars "From My Mac" sync with your Mac via the USB cable. Your Mac knows if it's syncing any particular calendar via both paths, but by the time they get to the iPhone, they look like two entirely different calendars, even though their names and contents might be identical. When you add an event on your iPhone, that event will show up on your Mac depending on which path it has to travel. If its calendar is "From My Mac", it will have to wait until the next time you sync with iTunes and the USB cable.
I suggest you select either MobileMe or iTunes, but not both, for syncing if you want to avoid duplicate calendars on your phone.

Calendar subscription reports 403

My Jewish holidays calendar subscription is now reporting a 403 error even though it is still listed by Apple.
Any ideas?

Frederick,
I believe that you will find Hebcal Jewish Calendar to be a more reliable/accurate Jewish calendar source than Apple Inc.

HT5029 Calendar subscriptions no longer show

My calendar subscriptions no longer show in any of my calendars (iCloud, computer, iPad, iPhone). What has changed?

OK, so two days and 47 views later tells me that this question is not going to be answered here. After looking at a post done today, I've come to the conclusion that subscribed calendars and published calendars are no longer working with MobileMe.
My only alternative is to sync all my calendars with my child's computer at this point so that she can see the two that pertain to her.
