Can I have 2 calendars?
Can I have 2 calendars, a personal one and a work one? Can my wife's iPhone populate my personal calendar?
You can create seperate calendars in iCal by pressing the + in the lower left corner of iCal. You can view your calendars by going to View > Calendar List. Check or uncheck that list to display your Calendars. This is explained further in iCal Help under "Creating and Working with Calendars".
Sharing calendars via iCloud is explained pretty well in this other thread here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/17773224#17773224

Can I have calendar alerts for only one calendar with multiple calendars?
My wife has multiple calendars on her iPhone (mine and hers), but she would like to receive alerts/notifications only for the items on her calendar. Is this possible? (This seems to be the opposite problem from what this person experienced: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=8479193.)
We sync with Outlook on a PC via iTunes.I have the very same problem. In our company, we have shared CalDAV calendars for every employee. I receive and sync those to my Mac and to my iPhone/iPod Touch; on both platforms I only want alerts for my personal appointments, and not to get alerted when my colleagues have a business lunch.
Interestingly, in iCal on Mac OS X, there is an option "Ignore Alarms" for every single shared calendar, and I can cherry-pick those that I want to get alerted about. This is exactly the behavior I want on the iPhone, too, which regrettably is not possible (yet?).
The other option would be to forbid alarms in shared calendars for everybody, which is not feasible, too, because people might want to get alarms without having to duplicate the date to some personal calendar first.
So if anyone has a practical solution to this problem, I'd be happy to hear about it. Thanks!

ive added my work coleague to my iCloud account so we can share the calendar on our I-phones for work appointments. when he makes a purchase on iTunes i now get charged though so how do I stop this from happening? also can I just share only work appointments or do i have to share the whole calendar with him? Can I select what he sees?
Hi Frantic503,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
When you are the Family Sharing organizer, purchases are billed to your account unless the family member making purchases has an iTunes Gift Card or iTunes credit on their account. The attached article has more information on how this process works.
Family Sharing - Apple Support
What I may suggest in your situation would be to discontinue the Family Sharing and use iCloud calendar sharing. Using this method keeps your accounts separate but allows you to still share your calendar.

I have 3 i phones. Can I have multiple accounts on one computer where it keeps the contacta and calendar for each?
My daughter and I both have iphones. I created an account (not separate itunes) for her on my computer so she could sync her phone/itunes but not have it interfere with mine since we have WAY different taste in music. Creating a different computer profile should work if you have separate itunes accounts, too.
If you all use the same itunes account, you can turn on Home Sharing. That way you can all download the same content without having to pay for it again. Not sure how or if that works with separate itunes accounts.
Hope that helps! -
Two iPhones. One account. Can I have separate calendar alerts?
I have a new 4s. My wife has my old 3GS. We are using the same iTunes/iCloud apple I'd account. It's nice because she can make her own calendar and I can make my own calendar. If I don't want to see her calendar I just deselect it in the calendars to view menu. I can see her stuff if I want to and she mine by going the other way. The problem is Calendar ALERTs. Even if I've deselected her calendar, my iPhone still beeps a reminder at me from one of her Calendar alerts and vice versa. Is there some way to make it so that the alerts only occurr if I've selected her calendar to view?
I also have kinda the same problem with reminders. She gets mine and I get hers even though I've got two separate "lists" of reminders. Can I stop that?
Also a similar deal with contacts. Can we have separate contacts lists and only see the others when we want to?No, sorry.

My husband and I share the same Apple ID number because we both need access to an app that has a subscription and would be expensive for us to do separately. We don't like that this shared ID number means we also share our calendar, note pages, email, etc....Is there a way to separate the things we don't want to share?
That would be my suggestion. Just keep using the common one for purchases in the stores. Then each get another AppleID using a free gmail, AOL, hotmail, MS Live or whatever email account.
Delete your current iCloud account and login with the new AppleID, and logout of Messaging and then backin with the new AppleID. Now you have a shared iTunes/App store account, but completely separate, independent iCloud and iMessage accounts.
You can still share calendars if you wish to, even across separate accounts - http://support.apple.com/kb/ph2690 -

Can I have mulitple iCloud Contact lists and calendars on one account?
We have 3 iphones in the family. I'd like to use one iCloud account for our iTunes library, but each of us needs to maintain our own calendars and contact lists. Can I have separate calendars and contacts under the same iCloud account?
Here's an article that may be of interest:

Tried to download us calendar to my iPad & iPhone. But it stopped and won't finish downloading! Can I have help please?
I have downloaded Japanese calendar to my calendar already. Can't I download more than one holiday calendar?Plug your device into the original charger & block in a wall outlet and leave it alone for a couple of hours. Then, while it is still plugged in, restart it by holding down the home button and the power button for 10-15 seconds until you see the Apple, then let go.

I have edit access to someone else's calendar. In iCloud i can add an event to this calender. In My calendar on my Mac I can see the calendar in the list, but when I try to add an event to this calendar, it is not avail from the list in event to select. Any help appreciated. Thanks
Hi Chris,
You can't get rid of an alert. The least you can have is one that says "none".
Nevermind, I see you learned how to edit the event. -
I have Calendar v 7.0 and Entourage 12.3.6 2008 on OS X 10.9.2. I cannot import Entourage events into Calendar - this was never an issue with iCal. Whats happened and how can I import details into Calendar or do I need iCal back?

Can I have personal calendars block time in my ical without sharing contents with others?

The calendar attendant is enabled so meeting requests are handled automatically based availability without needing a human delegate to deal with them.
Try disabling it and test. ( Maybe test against another dummy account first).
Letting users place appt directly on a calendar is never recommended, but it could be the calendar attendant is trying to do its thing as well.

my wife and I have separate apple ID acts so that we could register our iPhones and iPads under our own names. Can I have my iMac synch iCloud with both apple ID's so that both our calendars end up on our iMac?
If have separate iCloud accounts and want to keep your all your iCloud data separate, you can create separate user accounts for each of you, then sign into your individual iCloud account within your user account.
If you want to just add both iCloud calendars on your Mac, you can sign into one iCloud account in System Preferences>iCloud, then add the second account in System Preferences>Internet Accounts>iCloud and only check Calendars with this second account. -
I have a dialog box in Mac OS calendar that says "moving calendars to server account. It has totally locked up the Calendar app. I have forced quit, restarted the Mac as well as Calendar but I can't use Calendar at all. How can I restore Calendar?
No one have any idea as to what's going on with my issue?
A lot of people do, if you take a look at the More Like This widget on the right side of this page.
Try signing out and back in to iCloud in System Preferences.
