Can I sync my iCal calendar to my husband's Google Calendar?

I have read many discussions about this here and on other forums, but can't find an answer that works for what I'm trying to do.
I use iMac, iPhone and iPad and keep track of our family's many activities on 3 iCal calendars (so I can use the different colors to track what each kid is doing.) I would like my husband to be able to view and modify these calendars.  He is on an Android device, uses Google Mail and a PC.
I can easily sync his Google calendar to my iCal using advice from this Google forum (http://support.google.com/calendar/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=151674).  I cannot figure out how he can sync my calendar to his Google calendar. 
I have exported my iCal calendar and he has imported it into Google calendar just fine, but it is a static picture of the calendar when I export it so doesn't really help keep him up to date.
I have shared the calendar per the link by Roger Wilmut1 (link: http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mm6b1a9479) on this  discussion: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4599543?start=0&tstart=0.  However iCloud is requesting an iCloud account from him to "Join" the calendar in Google calendars.
If he set up an iCloud account (how??  I don't know) could he then access my iCal and sync it into his Google calendar?
I'm trying to figure out if I should just give up on iCal and switch to a Google calendar.  It is working so nicely right now with my iPhone and iPad I would love to just keep using iCal if possible.  Most of the advice I have seen describes how I can link to his Google calendar (done, but not what I want to do) or says I should move to Google Calendar and stop using iCal. 
Would appreciate any solutions you might offer.

I've been using iCloud since it's inception as "mac.com" or whatever it was called. I've been able to Sync Outlook Exchange Calenars to my iMac, iPhone and iPad. However, I cannot get iCal (when viewed in iCloud) to display Exchange or Google Calender items.
It's odd, all other Mac versions of iCal are happy e.g. iMac, MacBook Air, iPad Air, iPhone etc. But nothing when I login to icloud.com and look at the iCal there.

  • I am trying to share calendars with my husband (using Google calendars). He can see my calendars, but I am having trouble seeing his. We both use iPhones.

    I am trying to share calendars with my husband (using Google calendars). He can see my calendars, but I am having trouble seeing his. We both use iPhones. We both have company email addresses. I have had to install and uninstall my gmail info on my iPhone multiple times due to errors sending and receiving emails from my company email address on my phone. For some reason, all of my emails are getting stuck in my outbox when my gmail account is installed on my phone. When I delete it, my emails get sent automatically. This is really annoying! I would do without the gmail account, but I need to share calendars with my husband. How do I fix this?

    If you have two-step verification turned on in your email account, you'll have to log in with a browser and turn it off.

  • HT2513 Can I share an iCal calendar with someone who uses Google Calendar?

    That's basically the question.  I use iCal and I want to share one of my calendars with someone who uses Google Calendar and doesn't have any Apple products.  Is this possible?
    Thanks,

    I didn't explain correctly. Right now I share (subscribe) a calendar on Mobile Me , in addition to my own personal calendar. That shared calendar is staying on Mobile Me and I need to be able to access it once I move my personal calendar to iCloud. That is, if I use iCloud can I share calendars that are not on iCloud, but are on MobileMe?
    You can't do this: when you migrate your MobileMe account to iCloud the calendars will be transferred there and no longer available on MobileMe.
    You can share calendars privately or publicly from iCloud: private calendars can only be viewed by nominated iCloud members; public calendars can be viewed by anybody in a CalDAV client such as iCal or Google Calendar (though they are non-editable).

  • How do I sync my iphone calendar and my husband's iphone calendar?

    How do I sync my iphone calendar with my husband's iphone calendar?  I want to be able to add something to my calendar and have it automatically be added to his and visa versa.

    This page should have some useful information for you: http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=1272882
    Bare in mind you can also set it up to share Reminders as well, if you're interested in that too.

  • My iPhone won't sync calendar to iCloud, only to Google calendar, which I've never used. Events from iCloud sync to the phone and to Google.  Huh???

    My iPhone 3GS (ios 5.1) won't sync calendar to iCloud, only to Google calendar, which I never authorize or use.  Yet when I entere an event on the iCloud calendar, it syncs to the iPhone (and to Google calendar) just fine.  Any suggestions?

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    iCloud cannot sync with Google calendars, so it would seem that you may be using the wrong calendar account. Click on the calendar button in the top right hand corner of the calendar app and check which calendar you are adding your events too.

  • How to push calendar events from iPhone to Google Calendar

    I have successfully setup google calendars to sync with my phone and created a test event on google calendar website and it correctly pushed to my phone.
    Now, my question is will the events that I already created natively on the iphone while under the Microsoft Outlook calendar push back to google calendars to where I can see them on the website? Will I have to go in and recreate while in specifically the Exchange google calendar or will they push back if I'm in the "All Calendars" view and create an event?
    One last thing, I have not synced the phone with itunes yet since activating google calendar sync. Is that required?
    Sorry if this is all confusing. I'm just learning the calendar thing for the phone.
    Thanks in advance!

    I had all sorts of headaches trying to get this to work. But yes, you can do a 1-way sync from Outlook to Google Calendars to make sure Google has ALL your events. You then turn on sync on the iPhone, so the three are in sync.
    What I did (do not try this at home ) is I deleted my Google Calendar and turned off sync on the iPhone (deleting the calendar data from my iPhone). I started with ONE source of appoinments. I then removed/reinstalled the Google sync app on my PC and initiated a 1-way sync from Outlook to Google. Now Google had a brand new calendar with all my appointments. I then turned on 2-way sync between my PC and Google. Next step, turn on calendar sync on the iPhone. That way all the appointments from Google (which are all the appointments from Outlook) downloaded onto my iPhone. Voila!

  • Calendar app that handles multiple Google calendars?

    Can anyone recommend a calendar app that handles multiple Google calendars in a single account, including one of what  Google's desktop web site shows as  "My calendar" calendar plus one "Other calendar" calendar?
    Thanks.

    Calendar can have two or more calendars calendars listed at the same time.
    Each can be a different color for identifidation.
    The first screenshot shows that the Medical and Joint calendars are shared calendars.
    Will that work for you?

  • Can I sync my iCal with my already existing Gmail Calendar?

    I am trying to simplify life and that includes synching my calendars all into one. I mainly use my Google Calendar and would like to be able to sync it to my iCal. I tried copying the URL, but it said it would not work....any suggestions on what I may be doing wrong?

    Greetings,
    Suggestions:
    If you both put your calendars into a calendar sharing service like iCloud, Google, or Yahoo that would allow you to share calendars / events directly. 
    Add each other as invitees to your shared events: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=iCal/2.0/en/wr36.html
    Use a different calendar program that will share across your local network: http://busysync.com
    Hope that information helps!

  • Can I sync my iCal calendars

  • Itunes no longer syncs with ical even though it recognizes all my calendars

    My first problem was that iTunes would only transfer over certain calendars, not all that I had selected. On top of that, some, but not all, of the start times were an hour later than my iCal calendars. And, I've been having issues with disappearing calendars. So, I restored the iPod and the following happened...
    After connecting my ipod to my iMac, I went to iPod options and under calendar, I selected to "synchronize all calendars". iTunes found all my calendars. I clicked ok, iTunes says it's "updating calendars" and after a few moments my ipod is back to normal. But, when I navigate to calendars on the iPod, there are no calendars to be found.
    So, I reinstalled itunes. deleted .plist files. I even exported all my calendars to .ics files and completely reinstalled iCal. Restarted the iMac a few times in between. Now, the only way I can get the calendars to show up on my ipod is to mount the ipod as a drive and copy over the .ics files. Since I have 16 calendars, the export and copy routine is not ideal.
    I do not sync with entourage. I have a .mac account, but I don't sync with that either. Nor do I have the Mark Space app that seems to appear in a lot of threads about odd times and disappearing calendars.
    I have a Gen3 20gb iPod with the latest updates, itunes (6.0.4) ical (2.0.3) and OS X 10.4.6 with 1 GB RAM and about 160 GB of available on the hard disk. My iPod has about 12 Gb of stuff on it.
    Any clues as to what's happening or how I can solve this?

  • I've upgraded my iPhone4 to iOS5 but there're no records show in my iPhone4 nor in the iCloud, but there're records show in my iCal. How can I sync my iCal to iCloud or back to iPhone4?

    I've upgraded my iPhone4 to iOS 5 and selcted to use iCloud to sync my calendar. However, there're no records in my iPhone 4 calendar nor in the iCloud calendar, but I can see the records in my iCal from my iMac. How can I sync the records back to my iPhone 4 calendar or iCloud calendar?
    Thanks!

    Thanks, but I checked iCloud and it has none of them.
    If it backed up to my laptop, that died and I just got the new computer. The one that's crashed won't even boot, so there's no way to even tell if it was syncing the contacts along with all the phone photos. Literally happened at the same time - it was because I had the new computer that I was finally able to pull the photos off the phone and make room for the upgrade. It had refused to upgrade for lack of space for some time.
    I had thought it was set to sync to iCloud but it vanished from BOTH my phone and the cloud. That's why I'm so angry about it.
