Google calendar sends e-mail reminders, iCal shall not trigger Mail

I am using several Google calendars. I configured Google calendar to send reminders via e-mail. Unfortunately, iCal tries to do the same now. So for every entry in one of my Google calendars, Mail appears and wants to send a reminder e-mail ... Very annoying. What I would like to have, however, is the following:
E-Mail alarms come via Google calendar and on screen reminders come via iCal. Under no circumstances, however, Mail shall send e-mail reminders itself.
Any way to achieve this?

Hi,
Not exactly what you're asking for but… you can disable all alarms for a calendar in iCal by selecting the calendar in the Calendar list, pressing Cmd-I and from the info window that should appear checking "Ignore alarms".
Best wishes

  • ICal + Google Calendar: I can't see iCal events on Google Calendar...

    Hi all
    Two partners and myself have started a small business, and we need to be aware of each other's schedules in order to run it successfully, so we have decided to give Google Calendars a bash.
    I've added my Google account to iCal so now when I add an event to Google Calendars it shows up in iCal, but not vice versa: in other words, if all my iCal events don't show up in Google Calendars.
    I've researched the issues, follow all the steps, etc. but I still can't seem to fix this... Am I doing something wrong?
    Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

    My understanding is that iCal will not send data to gCal. The forums suggest that the only way to do this at present is to hook up an iPhone to gCal, which does allow a two-way exchange. gCal then sends to iCal. To me, that means that you cannot make entries on your Mac iCal and have them replicated in gCal. So your Mac calendar is effectively 'read-only', and all entries have to be made on an iPhone or on gCal. I'm not sure, but I suspealso that the only way to get your Mac updated is via gCal; possibly synching phone to Mac via iTunes will result in duplicate entries.
    As I understand gCal, you have to be online to access it, which is no good if you are on the road (or visiting your mother!). I'm not sure how MobileMe comes into this either; I'm still experimenting and either I get no calendars or multiple duplicate entries!

  • How can I get ALL of my Google Calendars to show on the iCal on my iPhone? I see all of my Google Calendars on the iCal on my Mac, but I do not see them in the iCal on my iPhone. I only see one Google Cal, but not the others.

    The amount of RAM is not dependant on the operating system. It is all about the model of you Mac.
    10.6.8 is the version of OS X that is installed on your system. It has no real baring on the amount of RAM that CAN be installed.
    Personally I have never had good luck with Corsair RAM. I have always had good luck with Crucial and Kingston.

    If you have a rescue email address set up on your account then you can try going to https://appleid.apple.com/ and click 'Manage your Apple ID' on the right-hand side of that page and log into your account. Then click on 'Password and Security' on the left-hand side of that page and on the right-hand side you might see an option to send security question reset info to your rescue email address.
    If you don't have a rescue email address set up then go to Express Lane  and select 'iTunes' from the list of 'products' in the middle of the screen.
    Then select 'iTunes Store', and on the next screen select 'Account Management'
    Next choose 'iTunes Store Account Questions' or 'iTunes Store account security' (it appears to vary by country) and fill in that you'd like your security questions/answers reset.
    You should get an email reply within about 24 hours (and check your Spam folder as well as your Inbox)

  • My google calendar is synced to my ical on my iPhone but nothing shows up on my iCloud calendar?

    I have synced my google calendars to my ical on my iphone and it works great. I just started to sign into icloud on my mac and noticed that none of my calendars or events are showing there? How do I sync them?

    Your Google calendar is not stored locally on your devices (other than a temporary cached view for use while your device is offline); it's stored on Google's server (just as  iCloud calendars are stored on iCloud's servers).  Neither can sycn data from the other service's server.  If you want to use iCloud to sync your calendars, you have to import it to iCloud's server as shown in the linked video.  Or, just continue to use Google instead.  (They are similar services.)

  • Shared google calendars: sending invites

    My partner and I have a Google calendar each that we share.
    Shared on iPhone calendars (set up as an Exchange account and synced via m.google.com/sync
    Previously we could set up a calendar event on our iPhone and the other would see it on their iPhone calendar as a normal calendar entry.
    Now whenever we enter a new calendar event, the other person sees it as an invite with voting buttons?
    We haven't changed any settings. Very annoying.
    Haven't found any solutions yet.

    I am seeing this same behavior, and it is driving me nuts. I've shared a kids calendar with their mother (my ex-wife). She inexplicably gets an invite when I create an event. She should not get an event  invite---the event should just appear on her view of the calendar. Then when I view an events, she shouws up as a "Guest" that hasn't responded. Then when I try to edit or delete an events, I can't. I have to go to Google calendar to do this.
    I am starting to wonder if this is only happening with events created on iOS. I can't find any help nor any discussion threads except this one.

  • Mail app window does not open, mail won't send

    Ever since my upgrade to 10.7, my mail app has not opened a window (although the app opens). I can manually open a window from File/New Viewer Window. I also have to force quit the mail app, it will not close from Mail/Quit Mail. Also, it cannot send mail. I have been hoping 10.8 upgrade would solve, but no luck.

  • Why don't U pay attention to your adds on, like Provider for Google Calendar during your updates? It's not working all the time after your updates. Very annoyin

    I do not want to find a way every time and spend hours to connect THunderbird to Google calendar every new release. Why don't U solve this problem finally? Not everyone has special computer skills to find good APi or installation info, and many bullshits.
    Pls, do something that finally solve our problem.
    We like Thunderbird, but need to use Google calendar - to connect events to mobile phones- as thunderbird do not have this opportunity. So solve pls, or create a program that allow us to use normal calendar that we able to synch with our mobile phones.
    Thank you.

Now with another major UI re-do in Firefox 29, that button can't be moved as easily, continuing what they started with Firefox 4.

    Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
    Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts   Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

  • Junk mail-why don't I have an option for Is junk mail in messages flag not junk mail

    I have a brown coloured email which has been accurately diagnosed as junk mail, but when I go to Messages>flag>...the only two options I have are "not junk mail" and "mark as unread"  yet in the help support it says that it should have "junk mail" there too.  So far I cant mark it as junk mail - so I usually just delete them. Any advice please? Thank you.

    Have you studied Mail prefernces?   If not, go to Mail > preferences > Junk mail and check out the options there. Alternately, click on the 'info' question mark and follow up anything you are currently unsure of.

  • Calendar sending 1,000 reminders a day

    I think I have a clendar syncing problem.  I receive multiple email calendar reminders for every event in my calendar…over and over till the daily 1,000 email send limit is reached.  I have an MSN account that is run via online outlook.com.
    My gmail calendar (used for business and viewed on my phone) is fine, my husband's hotmail calendar (viewed on my phone/calendar) is fine, it is only my calendar.
    I'm running OIS 7.0.2.
    I have fiddled with my calendar/contact settings and I can't figure out the problem.
    On my phone my iCloud account is my msn account, but the mail and calendar features are turned off in the iCloud setting. In my MSN account, the phone and calendar settings are on.
    Any suggestions?

  • Tasks display fine in iCal, but not in Mail

    In iCal I have my task list on the right which is showing all my tasks just fine. However, in Mail I have an IMAP account with a Apple Mail To Do folder instead of a special entry in the source list for tasks. I used to have a special entry for that, but now I only have this regular IMAP folder.
    When I select the Apple Mail To Do folder I do see entries for tasks in the message list pane displaying as regular mail messages but without a sender. When I select a task entry the message view pane shows the task as a mime-attachment icon.
    How can I restore the normal task view in Mail?

    I upgraded to Snow Leopard and now my Mail looks like this: http://twitpic.com/grjb5
    I believe I shouldn't see that 'Apple Mail To Do' folder under my IMAP account and I guess I shouldn't be able to access my mailbox from the tasks entry (the one with the globe icon).
    Anyone has any idea how to fix this?
