Google calendar subscription not visible in iCal

Hi folks, I'm trying to subscribe to a shared Google Calendar through the ICAL (.ics) protocol.
Although iCal seems happy enough with the URL I provided it and shows a calendar under "Subscriptions", none of the shared events is showing up in iCal. I don't mean that event details are not showing up, I mean nothing is showing up, not even free/busy blocks.
I downloaded the .ics file from the URL and viewed it in a text editor, and it appears to contain all the information, with the start/end dates and times, etc. It's just not showing up in iCal's calendar views.
Any clues?

i seem to have the same problem, can you tell me where you set those default settings? in ical ? or google calendar? thanks for help ....

ICal Google Calendar Subscription not displaying

Hi guys,
I've recently added two different google calendars by creating subscriptions. Both calendars appeared to be added correctly as all of the calendar description is correct and they appear under the subscriptions bar. I can only view them on my iphone via mobile me.
My problem is this: I can see one of the calendars just fine, but the other one isn't visible to me despite all of the information being present in the calendar information tab. Do you have any ideas why this calendar isn't visible? When I make it a delegate calendar it is visible, but neither of the calendars I added is my principle google calendar. I would much rather have a calendar as a subscription tied into mobile me rather than a delegate calendar. Thanks!

Google Calendar alarms not working in iCal when synced via delegation

If I set up syncing to my shared Google calendars using Google's Calaboration app, I get a half dozen or more "Request Error, Calendar could not be found" messages a day along with the annoying bouncing iCal icon in the dock.
If I set up syncing via the delegation method — as per Google's general syncing instructions (http://www.google.com/support/calendar/bin/answer.py?answer=99358#ical) as well as this Google Calendar forums thread (http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Calendar/thread?tid=210c119ea4d2d37e&hl=en) — iCal fails to display event alarms (i.e., the pop-up alert window).
I need the alarms, so the only thing I can think to do is to tell iCal to sync with gCal less frequently.

Hi Guys,
Having something similar here with Google and ical, seems to be related to when using Google Enterprise Apps for me and a third party provider is in use. In this case a SAML provider. It allows me to get to a login page and asks me which Apps I would like to allow to access my Google Calendar. Once I have made my selections and hit ok it then gives me a pop up message saying that authentication has failed. This is strange as I have had to authenticate with Google to be able to access the application sync in the first place.

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.

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!

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.)

Issues: new events show from google calendar but not the other way round

Hi,
I've just followed the instructions to the letter on these pages: http://support.google.com/mobile/bin/answer.py?hl=en&topic=14252&answer=138740
& http://support.google.com/mobile/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=139206 and looked at the known issues page, but I am still stuck.
Entries in my Google Calendar have now synced in iOS Calendar (and weekcal which I use instead of iOS Cal) - however, none of my existing entries in my iOS Cal have synced with Google Cal.
Here are the issues:
A recurring event created by someone else and me invited showed in iOS when I set this up
None of my events from iOS show in Google Calendar
New events I create in Google Calendar do not show in iOS
New events I create in iOS don't show in Google Calendar
To test, I deleted the recurring event which was the only one showing on iOS - immediately it was also deleted on iOS which indicates it is set-up to sync betweeb Google and iOS
Cannot find any information on help pages about this.

I'm not sure what else to suggest. As the Nokia 5800 is not natively supported by iSync you must be using an iSync Plugin, so I'd advise contacting the author of the plugin - it may be buggy and need fixing.

Google calendar is not showing in the list of calendars in the iOS Calender app

I'm following this link to sync Google calendar with my iOS Calendar app on my iPhone 5:
http://support.google.com/a/users/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=138740
It sets up alright and I can see it in the list of calendars in the settings but nothing is sync'ed in the Calendar app itself. Also while in the Calendar app I click Calendars in the top left corner, and this Google calendar is not even in there and I don't know why (since it is in the settings -> mail, contacts, calendars -> accounts.) Very frustrating!

You need an AirPrint compatible printer to be able to print directly from iOS devices, but unfortunately, your Canon ip2000 is not on the list of compatible devices. See this Apple support document for more details:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4356
A possible workaround that might work is to try an App like Print Central on the iPad and iPhone. This will allow the iOS devices to print to most printers. But, there is no way to guarantee that it will work with your printer.

Some Google calendar entries not showing up on phone

On a couple of occaisions, I've had a whole day of Google Calendar entries not show up on my Palm Pre. Today, just this mornings entries showed up, but the two entries I have for this afternoon don't show up on my phone. I've tried syncing manually a couple of times. I've tried syncing over EVDO/Data only (turned off wireless). I've tried deleting an entry, re-adding it, and re-syncing and no joy.
What now?
UPDATE: So, once I got home I looked into changing to syncing via EAS. I didn't like some of the 'features' of that route, so I went nuclear. I deleted the gmail account from the Calendar application and re-added it. After syncing completed, I found my missing entries... So, anyone got any ideas of additional data to collect?

Deleting my gmail account and re-adding it does not clear up the problem, it hides the symptoms. What if it didn't work, do I reinstall the OS? I've had two occurences of this--none of last Friday's calender entries were in my calendar and yesterday afternoon's entries were missing. There is a root cause and it needs to be found and sorted.
I missed a meeting yesterday because my phone did not sync up with my Google calendar. This is a fundamental feature of of the Palm WebOS smartphones. Calendar syncing is a fundamental feature of all smartphones and a smartphone that doesn't do this is no longer smart.
Are there other people who have seen this symptom? Is there something I can do to _help_ gather data for the Synergy team to find the root cause?

IPhone Calendar Changes not Syncing with ICal

Additions and changes to my iPhone calendar are not synced with ICal on my Mac. Syncing the other direction (adding or changing appointments on my Mac) works, but nothing I change or add on my iPhone appears on my Mac (the same seems to be true of contacts and notes). I have the same problem with an iPod touch.
Has anyone else experienced (and fixed) a similar problem? As it ism the iPhone-Mac sync only works in one direction!

I had the same problem, and then all my calendars stopped syncing either way. They picked a beautiful time to do it, too... right as I was leaving on a business/pleasure vacation where I was making on the fly appointments. grumble
However, I fixed it tonight. Here is what I did.
1. Back up (export) all your iCal calendars. (not just good practice, you'll need them later) Make sure iCal is closed.
2. under ~/Library/Application Support/iCal delete everything.
3. under ~/Library/Calendars delete everything
4. Sync your phone.
At this point you should have your phone overwriting everything in iCal. If your problem is ONLY syncing from phone to iCal you should be good to go, if you can't sync either way, you'll need to:
5. Drag all your backed up calendars back to iCal. In theory they will sort themselves out, but you might have some duplicates between stuff you've created on your phone and in iCal.
I don't know if this will keep the problem from occurring again, but at the very least, I was able to test out my ability to create events on either side, and it works.
I kept hoping that the last iPhone update would solve this for me, alas!

Since moving to iCloud, my google calendar does not sync from my iPad, whereas it syncs perfectly from my iPhone. Any ideas?

Did you ever get an answer to this? I'm having the same issue.

How do I add Google calendar subscriptions to iPad iCal?

I was able to add my Google calendar account to iCal on iPad but my calendar subscriptions (delegated) from other users is not displayed. I know there is a wizard to add a subscribed calendar but I don't know how to fill it out:
Settings> Add Account> Other> Add Subscribed Calendar > Server "myserver.com/cal.ics". Where do I get the information to plug between the quotes?
Thanks.

ab1268,
I'm trying to do this very thing. I have multiple google calendars set up (one for each kid, my husband etc.). I want to move to iCal exclusively. Based on your note above, should I export each individual calendar within ical. Remove each from the iCal account and then reimport then into ical? I suppose the risk is low b/c the data still exists in google.
Please advise - I would hate to misstep. Very new to the apple world (aside from iphone / ipad).
Thanks!

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
