Can't share iCloud calendar with another user

I'm trying to share one of my iCluod calendars with another person with an iCloud account. The green "share" button is active, but when I click on it, the popup says that the calendar is owned by me, but does not display the "share with" field. What do I need to do to turn sharing on for that calendar?

There's nothing to stop you both setting up the same account, though there's a risk the server won't let you both use it concurrently.
You'll both need to use IMAP if your colleague is to be able to see the results of your activities.
An alternative is for you to assume total ownership of the colleague's account, do your triage and then send on approved messages to a new account set up for your colleague purely for this arrangement. Mail Redirect would allow you to pass messages to your colleague which would appear to have come directly from the original sender, whereas regular email forwarding loses the provenance.

Can I share an Account with another user?

I am a current Thunderbird user, as are my coworkers. One of my coworkers is getting bogged down with emails he shouldn't waste time on.
What I need is a way for me to access his email and filter out junk mail and emails he shouldn't be concerned with. So he would need to see any emails I have flagged or starred indicating they need his attention when he opens his email.
In addition to this, my coworker will also need to be able to access and read emails offline. Ideally he would be able to access his email while on a plane and see the flagged emails here as well. Then once he is able to access the internet again, it would be best if he and I would be able to see the updates that he made while offline.
Ultimately, I need to know if I can continue to use Thunderbird and tag team an email account(s) with another user.

Can I share my iTunes with another User Account on the same Mac?

Hi There
I have created a new user account on my MacBook for my Boyfriend to have his own login, the only trouble being he syncs his iPod and iPhone with my iTunes library.
Is it possible to share iTunes across the 2 User Accounts on the same Mac?

I have followed those instructions and successfully have shared my music. Now for the next question!
How can we both purchase songs that automatically update on each others account? (For example if I purchase a song, it won't appear on his Library)

HT203521 In iOS8 I can't turn off shared iCloud calendar alerts. I share iCloud calendars with 3 others and am constantly getting their alarms for upcoming appointments. Settings- Notifications- Calendar- Shared Calendar Changes turns off changes only.

Have had new iPhone 6 for 2 months, using iOS 8. I share iCloud calendars with 3 others and I am getting bombarded with their upcoming appointment alerts. There seems no way to turn this off. I went to Settings->Notifications->INCLUDE(Calendar)->Shared Calendar Changes and turned everything off, but this only blocks alerts about new events or changes to events being added to the calendars, it does not block the 5-minute/10-minute/etc. alarms that go off immediately in advance of the appointment. There used to be a setting in iOS7 in "Mail, Contacts, and Calendars" way at the bottom to turn off alarms from shared calendars, but I don't see that in iOS8. Any ideas?

Finally figured this out when I read jodiemcneill 's post about Google calendars. Thanks!
Reposting the basic idea: to turn off event alerts from shared ICloud calendars, select the Calendar App, then click the "info" (i.e., the circled red 'i') icon next to the shared iCloud calendar to be silenced. Go down to "Notifications" and turn the slider off for "Event Alerts: (Allow events on this calendar to display alerts.)"
For good measure, you can also turn off the slider for "Show Changes" to prevent the calendar from displaying messages when shared events are added/modified/deleted, although this can be done "globally" for all shared iCloud Calendars in Settings->Notifications->Calendar->Invitations (turn off all sliders, click "none" for Alert Style).
This has been a major pain in the ... neck ... for the past 3 months. So glad to start the new year with a suddnely-much-quieter iPhone 6.

Share icloud calendar with google calendar users

I know that this has been asked before, but I can find no official response from apple to the question of how to share my icloud calendar with google calendar users (or frankly, anyone not using icloud)
Can anyone point me to an official response to this surprising intransigence?
cheers
Ben

It is a 2 way sync, enter the event on the iCloud calendar (in Google) and it will be there when you view the calendar in iCal, or Google or at the iCloud website.
Do you know how to publish to Google in BusyCal?

Share iCloud calendar with Google Calendar

Ok, so I'v moved all my contacts, email and calendars to iCloud and everything is wonderfull.
I share a few calendars with my girlfriend and she is sharing her study calendar with me.
We have a shared calendar set up, where we enter when our son is in daycare and we have another shared calendar with things we do together.
Now comes the tricky question:
How do we share our icloud calendar showing our sons day in the daycare, with our parents who don't have any Apple devices and only uses google calendar?
Reason for this is, we live in the same city, and sometimes they want to go and pick up our son. With a shared calendar like that, they would just be able to write a note in their synced google calendar saying that they are going to pick up our son, and we would see it in our synced icloud calendar.
Also, my girlfriend only have an old-school cellphone. She is now finnaly getting a smartphone through her work.
Only problem I see comming with this, is that her phone is not going to be an iPhone.
So how do we keep sharing all our icloud calendars with her on a windows phone 7.5?
Is the Apple ecosystem finaly getting so clamped up, that it won't allow users who happen to have frinds or family without i-products, to share their life with them?
As everything stands now, I'm getting the feeling that Apple demands me to buy Apple products to all my family and frinds, just so that we can still interact and plan our different lives through shared calendars on icloud.
Can this really be right?
I hope I'm just missing something. Cause I really thought, that icloud would be this outstanding product which would make my cloud-life the easiest thing in the world. Instead, it really seems to be a step back, in the cloud evolution.

Thanks for your answer..
it dosn't really solve my problem, since I'm not interested in only sharing a calender on the web.
My wish is to sync my calendar with friends and family that are not using icloud, and not using apple product at all.
For example: My girlfriend, how finaly is getting a smartphone, needs some way to add and edit our shared calendar, so that we can both enter and edit appointments.
Same goes for my parrents, that whants to be able to set appointments of when they want to pick up our son at the daycare.
All this is possible, and has been possible for ages with other online calendar systems, so why does apple take a step down the evolutionstaires by disabling such a great feature?
Though MobileMe was not perfect, it did infact make this possible as I remember, so why can't this be done in iCloud?
You can subscribe to CalDav on your i-device, but you can't share one with friends, in what world is that logic?

HT204053 What if I share the iPad with another user?

How does iCloud work on the iPad if you share it with another user with their own account?

You can create a new shared iCloud account as your primary iCloud account in Settings>iCloud, which you can use for backups, photo stream, Find My iPad and for syncing bookmarks and documents & data. Then set up your two personal iCloud accounts as secondary accounts by going to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>tap Add Account>iCloud, and entering your separate iCloud account IDs. Use thes secondary accounts to sync Mail & Notes, Contacts and Calendars. This will allow you to keep your data in you secondary accounts separated rather than merged (although you will still be able to view each other's data on the shared iPad).

How can I share my calendar with my PC/Galaxy Spouse?

What is the best way to share a calendar with my PC/Galaxy Spouse?
I want to share my calendar with my spouse. I have a Mac/iPad/iPhone and he and he has a PC and Samsung Galaxy phone.
Because he is not too tech savy, I was thinking that he should view the calendar via iCloud on his PC and Galaxy. That means setting up an Apple ID and iCloud account. Is this correct? OR is there a better way.
He does not have Outlook on his PC currently ( but could ) and uses just his phone calendar. I’m not sure if I want him to be able to modify the calendar or not.

Install emclient (on the PC's), sign into the account (create the account using your iPad or iPhone)
Install Smoothsync on the Galaxy's (for contacts and/or calendars), sign them into the same account.
Any calendar entries will appear on everything connected to the account.

HT4059 can I share i books with another i phone user?

Can I share iBooks that I have purchased with another iPhone user?

ibooks (and other content downloaded from Apple) are tied to your iTunes account - so unless they have access to your account then no.

Can i sync my icloud calender with another user?

Is it possible to sync the calander so that me and my husband both can see whats planned for our family?
We use different icloud accounts

Yes. You can share calendars with each other as explained here: http://help.apple.com/icloud/#/mm6b1a9479. If you share a calendar as a private calendar, you will both be able to read and change it. Privately shared calendars are read-only.

Sharing iCloud calendar with Google user

Hello, I would like to share my own iCloud calendar as well as our two children's and the family's calendars, with my husband who is a Google user. I have gone onto iCloud.com and use the share public button, and sent my husband the invitation to subscribe to these calendars (with read-only access). However, the weird thing is when my husband tries to click on the Subscribe button, it does not work as it does not appear to be a clickable link. Has anybody else experienced this? And, do you how I can resolve this issue? Thanks.

Hi Roger,
I'm having this same problem, only GMail doesn't seem to provide any way to get the link that way. However, I am able to get a URL by viewing the plain text of the e-mail, it looks something like this:
webcal://p04-calendarws.icloud.com/ca/subscribe/1/...
When I try to add it, Google says "Sorry, webcal://... is not a valid URL" and it also says this even if I change the webcal:// to http:// ... Is this the error message to expect due to Google's stupid bug?
Thanks!
P.S. I am trying to subscribe because I need my wife's calendar in iCloud to sync with my Android phone... this has been a monstrous pain to try to get it to work with nothing to show for it so far... :-(

How can I share my ical with other users on the same machine?

Having recently bought an imac I set up accounts for the family. I'd like to share a generic calendar with everyone that only the adults can read/write, but want to allow everyone to hold their personal calendars at the same time. All the accounts are on the same machine. Can this be done? If so how?

You can only do this by syncing your calendar to an external server - MobileMe is designed for this but if you don't already have a MobileMe account you can't start one now.
If you do have a MobileMe account the method is described here:
http://www.wilmut.webspace.virginmedia.com/notes/sharedcalendar.html#publicshare
If you don't, you could sync to Google Calendar (Google accounts are free) or wait for iCloud which should be out in a couple of months and will probably provide this sort of facility.
You might like to consider BusyCal which is like iCal Pro - similar to iCal but with extra facilities. It can sync calendars on a Lan and also between accounts on the same machine (you have to have fast user switching enabled).
There is a free trial available on their website: it's slightly cheaper from the Mac App Store. (I have no connection with this company).
