Any suggestions?

Aha! I decided to repair permissions and that did the trick! Thanks for looking, anyway.

  • How can I restore my data from iCal? I didn't make any backup, but I use  time machine with an external HD. I deleted iCal when I deleted my gmail account. I have tried to restore, but I can only restore the iCal software and not the data.

    How can I restore my data from iCal? I didn't make any backup, but I use  time machine with an external HD. I deleted iCal when I deleted my gmail account. I have tried to restore, but I can only restore the iCal software and not the data.

    So what is your question?
    If you forgot your encryption password:
    Warning: Make sure it's a password you will remember or write it down for safekeeping. If you encrypt an iPhone backup in iTunes and forget your password, you can't restore from backup and your data will be unrecoverable.
    If you can't remember the password and want to start again, you must perform a full software restore and chooseset up as a new device when iTunes prompts you to select the backup from which to restore.
    The above comes from here:

  • .Mac has wiped two months of data from iCal

    I have just lost the last two months' worth of updates on iCal because of a bizarre synching issue.
    My laptop suddenly asked on opening iCal to reset iCal, and I chose the option to replace data on the laptop with the data on .Mac (thinking that there was a problem of some kind on the laptop, so probably best to use the data from .Mac which I had updated earlier in the day from another machine).
    However, once iCal had been reset it was clear that it had lost at least two months' of data - .Mac had apparently reverted to the iCal data it had round about Christmas.
    Can anyone explain what might have happened, and say if there is a way to get the data back? I have a backup but it is from a couple of weeks ago, so still lots of updates lost.
    Thanks!

    You can map manually. it is possible.

  • ICal on MacBook Pro will not receive dates from iPhone, but iPhone will receive dates from iCal on MacBook

    I recently got a MacBook Pro after having an iPhone and iPad since last year.  I have iCloud set up on all devices to share calendar dates.  However, when I input an event on iCal on the MacBook everything is fine and the event shows up on my iPhone and iPad calendars, but when I input an appointment on my iPhone, it will not update to the iCal on MacBook.
    Help please?

    First check that all your settings are correct, that calendar syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
    Make sure the calendars you are using are in your 'iCloud' account and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud account (you can do this by clicking/tapping the calendar button in the top left corner of the application ), non iCloud calendars will not sync.
    If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your calendars are in the iCloud account, you might try unchecking calendar syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling calendar syncing settings.

  • Migrating iCal and Address book data from Mac Pro G5  10.5 to new iMac10.6

    I last week moved from my old Mac Pro G5 with OS 10.5 to a new iMac 2.8 GHz Intel core i7.
    I succeeded pretty well to move my different files from one computer to the other not using the Migration assistant, which wouldn't work properly, but using my older Mac Pro as target disk.
    Everything apparently works well with the exception of the transfer of data from iCal and my Address Book.
    As suggested in a previous thread : kimaccdual: A Basic Guide for Migrating to Intel-Macs, I tried to transfer the complete iCal and Address Book folders from : Home/Library/Application Support from the old to the new computer. This gave no result at all. Not any of the older data : appointments from iCal; names, addresses, phone numbers, etc (in actual fact : nothing) from the Address book application appears on the new iMac.
    Can any one make a suggestion as to what specific files with their exact location contain this information so that I could try to transfer these to my new computer with more success than so far.
    Thanks for your assistance
    Just for your information I succeeded to transfer Bookmarks from Safari, mails from Mail, iPhoto and iTunes data.
    What could be wring with iCal and Address Book ???

    Kappy,
    Thanks for your quick reply.
    I tried this for the iCal application, however without any success. In actual fact in Home/Library/Preferences I only found following references to iCal :
    com.apple.iCal.AlarmScheduler.plist
    com.apple.iCal.helper.plist
    com.apple.iCal.plist
    which i copied from the old to the new computer as well as the iCal folder in Application Support as suggested.
    As already said without any success.
    As far as Address Book is concerned only the same type of files, but related to AB, are located on both computers.
    Am I missing something or should I look for other files elsewhere f.i. in the "Contents" folder of the application itself ???
    Thanks for anybody's further assistance

  • ICal reports that it can't find server, and lots of data from several years ago is trying to get attention.  Cannot bring up calendar in any view to use. also keeps loading unused calendar websites from long ago.  I can' remove them. what to do?

    iCal reports that it can't find server, and lots of data from several years ago is trying to get attention.  Cannot bring up calendar in any view to use. also keeps loading unused calendar websites from long ago.  I can' remove them. what to do?

    UPDATE: I had 36 Safari windows open and minimized on the dock from my last session; 20 of those windows failed to open b/c Safari "couldn't find the server"; I just went to the URL bar of all 20 pages and clicked return, and all 20 pages loaded perfectly, without dropping any images or losing formatting. This is a puzzle!!!

  • Publish dates into iCal from Numbers

    I am trying to publish dates from a chart in Numbers to iCal or Outlook calendar. Is this something that can be done?

    Solved, I think! What you need to do is log on to your icloud account at www.icloud.com, go to the calendar screen, click the gearwheel and choose New Calendar. Create a calendar here (ie up on the iCloud) with the name you want for your imported calendar data. Then switch to iCal - you may have to quit and relaunch for the new iCloud calendar to appear (or it will probably do so automatically if you wait long enough) then import the data using File->Import->Import... When you get to the step where it asks which calendar you want to import the data into, choose the new iCloud calendar you've just created. Job done!
    To be complete in my answer, I don't think you can exactly do what you want to do, at least not at present. There doesn't seem to be any way to publish a calendar to iCloud after the first time you set up iCloud on your Mac when it exports any calendar data that is on the Mac at that time. I suppose that Apple feel that the way I have described works by exporting from one calendar and importing into another, so no need to provide a way of doing it directly.

  • How do I remove data from my broken iPhone 3GS from iTunes, iCal, contacts?

    Help .....
    I recently fried my iPhone 3GS and the data used to be synced using iTunes. I have iPad and iMac, which data are synced using iCloud. The data in iMac are duplicated by the iPhone and iPad. Can any one guide me how to remove the iPhone data from iTunes, iCal and address book please. Thanks

    Turning your email off in settings doesn't remove the email from your account.  You have to delete it from your device or from icloud.com, then empty the trash to remove it from your account.  Same thing with contacts.

  • How do I easily transfer data from Palm Desktop to iCal and Address Book?

    Hello,
    How do I easily transfer data from Palm Desktop to iCal and Address Book?
    I have a Palm Tungsten E handheld which just died.
    Luckily, all my data is backed-up on my Palm Desktop V4.2.1.
    I just bought an iPod-Touch, so I would like to easily transfer
    all my data (Addressbook, Calendar, etc) from the Palm Desktop
    on my Mac (OSX 10.5) to the equivalent Mac applications
    (Address Book, iCal) which will then allow me to view and update
    them on my iPod-Touch.
    How do I easily transfer data from Palm Desktop to iCal and Address Book?
    Thanks in advance for your help.
    David

    Hi David. The contact information is straightforward. Bring up your Address List in Palm Desktop, then select Export under file. You pick vCard as the format, and save the resulting file where ever. In Address Book, you then select Import --> vCards under file. You may need to edit things like birthdays by hand afterwards.
    I am still working on the Calendar information.

  • How do I add dates from a web page into iCal?

    Hello. I would love to find a way to input dates from a web page, into iCal as an event. Right now, if there is a conference or whatever that is on such and such a date, I have to keep the web page open that has the dates and time, and then open iCal, and create a new event on that date, etc. Is there a way to highlight said dates on a web page, run some automation, and voila, it is a new event in iCal?

    Don't double tap. Just try pressing on the text. That should highlight it.

  • Transferring iCal data from SL to Calendar on Mountain Lion

    Hi,
    I'm having issues transferring my iCal data from my Snow Leopard account to my Calendar (Mountain Lion) on my laptop. Seems you can't just save it out as an archive and import it into Calendar any more. Same issue goes with the Address Book -> Contacts.
    Can someone help? I looked at another thread but it seems no one has figured this out yet.

    I am having the same problem.  I was able to have my google calendars that were easily set up through the delegation option.  Now, all the events have disappeared. When I go through the steps and add the other google calendars through delegation, they show up grey on the calendar side bar. Nothing happens when I refresh.  The calendars were here one day and gone the next. Very strange.
    I would very much like the delegation option to work. I see that there are work arounds involving adding each calendar, but that seems like a lot of work.

  • How can I get iCal not to show the same birthday dates from my iCloud

    How can I get iCal not to show the same birthday dates from my iCloud?

    You don't need them stored locally for a backup. You can manually export your contacts as archive for backup. Also, if you are backing up with Time Machine, you already have a backup. If your hard drive crashed, you would have to rely on your backup or iCloud anyway.
    So, if you're comfortable with that, sign out of iCloud. Choose to delete contacts from the computer. When you sign back into iCloud, you should only have iCloud contacts listed in AB. When you open iCal, you should only have one listing for birthdays.
    The other alternative is to disable the Birthday c.alendar and create one manually.

  • Transfering iCal data from one OS to another

    The new MacBook I am planning to purchase will come with OS X 10.6. How do I get my iCal entries from my older MacBook with Mac OS X 10.4.11 into the newer version. My wife's IMac running OS X 10.5.8 will not read them.

    Sorry for the confusion. I had a iMac G5 with iCal 2.0.5 running on Tiger 10.4.11. I bought a Mac mini with iCal 4.0.3 running on Snow Leopard 10.6.4.
    I migrated all my data from the G5 over to the Mac mini. When I opened iCal, all of my calendars were there, but the events in each calendar did not show up.
    I did try some workarounds, bottom line, none of them worked. I think it's an issue with the G5 using the PPC processor and the mini using the Intel processor.
    The point I was making was that there was a lot of info. in iCal still on my iMac that I needed on my mini and the only way to get it there was to retype it all back in or copy/paste to a file, etc. I was unable to shelve the iMac because of that.
    I'm sorry but I'm not clear on what you mean by "Can I set my old machine back to the non-beta version and keep the beta version on my new machine?"

  • TS3999 Received 2 appointments, same date, same content, just different hours. Since then I receive message from iCal: Access to "Subject" in account "iCloud" is not permitted. The server responded "403" to CalDAVWriteEntityQueueableOperation. It's a bug!

    Received 2 appointments from a customer, same date, same content, just different hours. Since then I receive message from iCal: Access to “Subject” in account “iCloud” is not permitted. The server responded "403" to CalDAVWriteEntityQueueableOperation. In my opinion this is a bug, because iCloud is not able to handle 2 appointments at the same date with same content, just at different hours. The different hours should be enough individuality for each event on calendar.

    Here are 4 identical events (other than time) in Calendar on my mac
    Here is how they appear at iCloud.com
    I concluded that iCloud has no problem with identical events seperated by time, so the question becomes what is wrong with your setup as opposed to what is wrong with iCloud.
