CALDAV, Calendar sync

Hello,
I would like to sync my N5800 with an shared/online iCal calendar using CALDAV.
I used to sync my iCal using CalGoo to GCal to sync to my phone. But since we switched for a network iCal at work, that solution is no longer available since there are no more local .ics files. Anyways, if I can leave GCal aside, I wouldn't mind.
I also tried OVI, but that seems to be a pure backup solution.
Is it really possible that Nokia can't sync using CALDAV yet?
Is there no application that can provide a simple sync feature with an online iCal/CALDAV calendar?
I really don't want to get an iPhone. But it seems to be the only solution. Is that really possible?
Thanks for your ideas....

I'm still looking for CALDAV support on Nokia (Symbian OS), but to no avail.
However, there is a blog saying about this possibility: http://developer.symbian.org/wiki/index.php/CalDav, I'm checking on it.

CalDAV calendars sync as read-only

Hi!
I have a CalDAV calendar in iCal (Leopard 10.5.4) and can read-write-delete in iCal just fine. It syncs over to my iPod Touch, but as a read-only calendar--as if it were something I subscribed to. Is there a way around this? I imagine the same thing would happen on an iPhone.
Thanks!
Corey

Not to get off topic--but let's keep this to syncing CalDAV calendars to the iPod Touch and not a wish list of other features.
I'm still trying to find out if this is possible--having a CalDAV calendar sync to the iPod Touch as a read-write calendar.
Anyone else with some relevant feedback?
Thanks!

Only 2 out of 7 CalDAV calendars sync to iPhone

Hello all,
I am trying to host CalDAV calendars on my own LAN. I downloaded and installed Apple Server, got a certificate, and enabled push notifications in the Server application Calendar pane. Then I exported all of the calendars on my machine to .ics files, and imported them onto the server. There are 9 different calendars. They all show up in the Calendar apps on the 4 computers at home, and events added on one computer show up on the others as expected. We have 3 iPhones in the family. After adding the CalDAV accounts on the iPhones, only 2 of the 9 CalDAV calendars show up on the iPhones. The same 2 calendars show up on all the phones, and the same 7 calendars are missing on all the phones. When I touch "Calendar" at the bottom of the screen in the Calendar app on the phone, the names of all 9 calendars are visible, with check marks next to them indicating that they should be visible in the calendar, but no events on those 7 missing calendars show up. I've tried altering the push/fetch settings in the iPhone preferences to no avail.
Can anyone help?
Thanks in advance,
Spalding

Close iPhoto and open your iPhoto Library package with the Finder as shown in this screenshot,
Locate and move the iPod Photo Cache folder to the Desktop. (Do no make any other changes to the contents of the package!)
Launch iPhoto and try syncing again.

Calendar sync using caldav

I have a Z10 STL100-3 (Bell Mobility) running BB 10.2.1.3247 (release 10.2.1.2977).
Recently setup office email, contacts (using carddav) and calendar (using caldav), in addition to my personal email/contacts/calendar from my gmail account. Work Email and contacts sync absolutely perfectly on my Z10.
However I am experiencing the following issue with my work calendar syncing. It seemed to sync fine for the first week or so. However, for the past few days, when I open my calendar on Z10, no work appointments are in the calendar. Note that I have calendar set to sync every 5 minutes.
If I swipe down, and select "Refresh" after about 5-6 minutes my work appointments come back and appear. However, the next time I open calendar I have to repeat these steps to see my work appointments.
I have tried a hard reboot, battery pull, eery trick I can think of, to no avail.
Even with no work appointments showing (ie. no refresh), I can create a work appointment on my Z10, and it syncs back successfully to my office Ouitlook account (through Kerio Outlook Connector).
This is making me crazy. As I said, contacts using carddav has no issues, only calendar using caldav.
Any help would be appreciated.

CalDav with nokia calendar sync

Hi,
Is there any possibility to synchronize nokia E52 build in calendar with other caldav? I'm using Thunderbird with lighting addon to sync my calendar with owncloud (caldav). But there is one piece missing - I want do the same with my E52 to have same calendar content.

Hi inzaghi89,
Thank you for your post and welcome to the forums!
Unfortunately there is no direct way of syncing CalDAV with your Nokia E52, this is because calendar etc. is usually synced via Mail for Exchange service. There is a workaround for this though, you can synchronise your CalDAV calendar with GMail or Hotmail and use your phone to create a Mail for Exchange sync to the service.
To set up Gmail (or Hotmail), perform the following steps:
Start Setup Email wizard (or select New on the Email client).
Select Start.
Select Mail For Exchange.
Enter your Gmail (or Hotmail) email address.
Enter your Gmail (or Hotmail) password.
Leave domain empty.
Enter server address m.google.com (m.hotmail.com for Hotmail).
Let us know if this helps,

Is it possible to sync CalDAV calendars with older iPods?

I am reposting from the "Older iPods" list, on which I did not get much feedback.
https://discussions.apple.com/message/15171363#15171363
Basically, since I upgraded to the new MobileMe calendars, which use CalDAV instead of being local calendars, I can no longer view them on my iPod Mini. The .ics files that iTunes puts in the iPod's Calendars/ folder are empty.
So, is this a fixable problem on my side, or is this feature just non-existent?...
Thanks in advance for your insights

I have written the following Python 2.6 script that exports all CalDAV calendars to the iPod. I have only tested it with iCal 4.0.4 (1395.7) and an iPod mini (software version 1.4.1), on Mac OS 10.6.7.

Looking for exchange calendar sync groupcal *****

Looking for exchange calendar sync system to replace sucky groupcal.
I've had nothing but problems with it. I get duplicate calendars, duplicate calendar entries, and the daemon stops updating from the
then the support folks are threatening to cut off support and no longer help me to fix their broken code!
I wasted money and so much time on this app, is there anything else out there that does a better job?

Not to mention that it doesn't work with Leopard now! I wish there was a way to get my Exchange calendar to sync to a third party that would sync with iCal 3.0. Since there is not support for CalDAV it would be nice if Exchange would support this!

Why doesn't my iPhone calendar sync with my Mac-neither ICloud or USB connections work.

My iPhone calendar will not sync with my MacPro either by iCloud or USB connection.

Let's compare the settings on the Mac, I'm also using iCal on my MacBook Pro OSX10.9.5.
iCal/Settings/Accounts -> iCloud CalDAV selected and activated, set to "push"
On the phone:
Settings/Mail, contacts, calendars: Syncing all events in calendar.
And in calendar app "iCloud"->"All calendars" selected.
I have no calendars selected in "On my iPhone"
Are you also syncing contacts via iCloud? If yes, does it work between the Mac and iPhone?

Recurring appointment not updating correctly with caldav calendar

I use iCal for my family's calendar. I sync this calendar to my online caldav calendar at godaddy.com. I have a 9-month weekly recurring teaching appointment in my calendar. In each month, there is at least one date that I do not need to teach, so I am trying to delete the event on that date. When I delete it in iCal for Sept 2010 and Oct 2010, it syncs bidirectionally to the web interface and removes the event from both iCal and my online calendar. However, when I try to delete the date from Nov 2010 and forward, it will not sync to the web interface, and about 15 seconds later when my iCal refreshes, the event comes back to my iCal calendar. Can anyone help me with this? I have called Go Daddy, and they say it is an iCal issue.

Welcome to Apple Discussions,
First make an iCal backup, File > Export > Archive.
Remove the following to the trash and restart your computer:
Home > Library > Caches
Home > Library > Calendars > Calendar Cache, Cache, Cache 1, 2, 3, etc. (Do not remove Sync Cache or Theme Cache)
If the issue persists:
1.) Delete the GoDaddy calendar from iCal > Preferences > Accounts
2.) Re-add the GoDaddy calendar
If the issue persists:
Remove the following to the trash and restart your computer:
Home > Library > Caches
Home > Library > Calendars > Calendar Cache, Cache, Cache 1, 2, 3, etc. (Do not remove Sync Cache or Theme Cache)
Home > Library > Preferences > com.apple.ical (There may be more than one of these. Remove them all.)
__NOTE: Removing these files will 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 re-add the GoDaddy account to iCal > Preferences > Accounts and test.
Hope that helps.

ICal import to a CalDav calendar created by Calaboration (for Google Cal)

I connected 6 of my calendars from Google Cal to iCal through CalDav with Calaboration. I wanted to take my existing iCal events and push them to the Google Cal calendars.
I tried exporting my existing iCal calendar as an ICS file, then importing it to the newly created Google Cal calendar. It worked for one calendar, and since then has just stuck on "Importing" whenever I try to import other calendars.
The CalDev calendars sync with Google Cal just fine, because I can create events on one end and they'll show up on the other. The problem is with importing. I've tried importing smaller files than the one that worked, and they just won't go.
Suggestions?

3.0.5 (1270)
Just to check I wasn't going mad, I just did this:
Opened GCal in Safari.
Created a new calendar: "Test Calendar"
Started Calaboration. Selected only the new calendar
Closed iCal when prompted
Opened iCal and after the (rather alarming) 'upgrading calendars' message I had GOOGLE:TEST CALENDAR with Test Calendar listed under it. (This can also be seen as a CalDAV account in preferences.)
Right-clicking on the calendar name, I get "Show CalDAV Queue" as the first item.
Are you using a different version of iCal? If not, perhaps you would be best advised to go into iCal Preferences, to delete the CalDAV account and start again?
Edit: Just noticed you are running the same version, but advice still stands.

Calendar Sync with PocketPC compatible with Windows 7 (WMDC)?

Is Calendar Sync with PocketPC compatible with Windows 7 (WMDC)?

More details welcome on this.
Oracle has at least 3 different Calendar Server Products and might be the same for a 'Calendar Sync'. Please provide the Calendar Server Version you would like
to use.
On the other hand there exists a Outlook Connector for at least 2 Calendar Server Version's ( CS6.3 and CS7 aka CalDAV). The Outlook Connector has the limitation that it
won't work with Outlook 2010 yet (this feature is planed for future release of Outlook Connector).

Autosync CalDAV calendars on Mac OS X login?

Hi guys,
I have just setup my own CalDAV server (it's the Apple calendarserver on Ubuntu 8.10). Works fine with iCal and Thunderbird/Lightning. I have one question concerning iCal on my Macs:
Is it somehow possible to autosync my CalDAV calendars upon login into Mac OS X?
The reason I am asking is the following:
When I use local calendars in iCal (i.e. non-remote calendars like CalDAV or WebDAV based ones) I do not have to explicitly start iCal after I have logged into Mac OS X for reminders to pop-up.
If I want reminders of CalDAV calendars to pop-up, I do have to explicitly start iCal (I guess so that iCal syncs with the CalDAV server and get new appointments/reminders).
An example: My MacBook is turned off. On my iMac I create a new appointment with a reminder in - let's say - 5 minutes from now on. iCal syncs this appointment to the CalDAV server. Now I turn on my MacBook and log into Mac OS X. I *do not* start iCal and wait for the 5 minutes to pass. On my iMac the reminder pops-up, the MacBook remains "silent". If I - on the other hand - start iCal on my MacBook after log-in, iCal syncs, gets the appointment and both - iMac and MacBook - remind me simultaneously.
What I want is, that the "syncing part of iCal" starts up upon log-in, so that I do not have to startup the whole iCal app.
Any hints?
Thanks
Kai

Calendar sync future appointments Google Calendar not showing up

I'm hoping someone can shed some light on this issue for me. My google calendar syncs fine with the appointments in the current year, however i have some future appointments 1-3 years out which i can't see in my BB but i can see them in Google Calendar via browser after i click "look for more" to show future dates.
Does BB10 only sync the current year appointments?

Here is the weird problem I am having. I have done the sync and followed the steps with the /syncselect link. However, I can get ONLY my sub calendars to appear in iCal and not my default (main) Google calendar.
I've removed the account from my mac, added it again, that didn't work. Then I removed the sub calendars, added those again (through sync select), neither of those worked. I even tried to add it in as a manual calendar using the long URL specific to the calendar with the /user at the end (CalDAV old settings) but that also didn't work.
Anyone else had this issue?

Work around for 1 year search limit on CalDAV calendars?

By researching a couple of forums and doing some of my own testing I seem to have confirmed that if a calendar on an iOS device is synced "over the air" (CalDAV) then Calendar and Spotlight search will only look 12 months into the past - regardless of how many months/years of calendar data is actually synced.
If a calendar is synced via iTunes this limitation does not seem to apply.
Accepting that this is the case, my query is what is the least onerous way to:
a) Be able to search 2-3 years into the past and
b) Have additions/changes that are made on the iPhone/iPad immediately sync into the cloud server
The specific scenario I have (for a client) involves Outlook 2010 on a Windows 7 PC syncing over the air using iCloud.
My first thought is to maintain a separate calendar in Outlook for items more than (say) 11 months old. Have that calendar sync via iTunes - on the premise that it it is unlikely to change very often. Then once a month (say) manually move the 11-12 month old items from the CalDAV calendar to the iTunes calendar.
My second thought is to simply sync the same calendar both over the air and via iTunes and live with the duplicate entries.
Does anybody have ideas that are slightly more sophisticated and/or elegant than this?
Thanks in advance,
Graham

That's a bit sketchy. There's a much simpler way around the Volume Limitation. That's removing it. Just set the Volume Limit to its maximum, and it's virtually gone.

HT1296 What calendars sync with an iphone-other than outlook

What calendars other than outlook and apple calendar sync with Iphone computer operating system is windows vista

None, but you can sync the iPhone with CalDAV calendars over the Internet.

You can sync calendars with:
Microsoft Outlook 2003, Microsoft Outlook 2007, Microsoft Office 2010 (Windows XP, Windows Vista, or Windows 7)
iCal (Mac OS X)
Microsoft Entourage 2004, Microsoft Entourage 2008
Note: If using Microsoft Entourage, use Microsoft Entourage 2008 12.1.2 or later if syncing with Mac OS X v10.6 or later. If you would like to sync data on your Mac with Entourage, enable syncing between Entourage and Address Book.
Microsoft Outlook 2011 for Mac
Note: If using Microsoft Outlook 2011 for Mac to sync calendars you must update to Microsoft Office 2011 for Mac Service Pack 1 or later.
