Help! how to sync iCal and Palm?

Hi out there...I recently turned back in my Palm Treo 680 and bought an iPhone. I want to sync my Palm data with iCal. There is information out there about how to do this if you still have the handheld device, but I don't, I only have the Palm files on my desktop machine. Does anyone have information about how to successfully sync between Palm and iCal given this situation? Thanks!

I you had been synchronizing your Treo 680 using iSync and the iSync Palm Conduit, you're set: simply synchronize your iPhone using iTunes and your contact and event data will flow to it from the synchronization database.
If you had been synchronizing your Treo 680 using the Palm Desktop, then launch that application, select the Address List option under the View menu, then Export… under the File menu.
Name your export file and pick a location to store it, then be sure that the following settings read…
Module: Addresses
Items: All xxxx Addresses
Format: vCard
Then press the Export button.
To export your event data, select any Datebook option under the View menu, then Export… under the File menu.
Name your export file and pick a location to store it, then be sure that the following settings read…
Module: Datebook
Items: All Datebook Items
Format: vCal
Then press the Export button.
Double click on each exported file to auto-import your contacts into the Address Book and your events into iCal.

How To Sync iCal and Address Book in Windows 7

Need help syncing iCal and Outlook 2011 (for Mac) THANKS!

QUESTION: How do I sync iCal and Outlook up again without duplicating any more events, and very importantly, without sending any more email invitations?
I just bought an iPhone. I am trying to get my phone and my MacBook Pro synced up through iCloud.
I realize that I need to have Outlook 2011 and iCal set up for syncing for this to work.
I did this at one point, and it resulted in all of my ALL DAY appointments being duplicated in Outlook, iCal, and on the calendar on my phone - and iCloud sending out duplicate invitations to events.
Then, I turned syncing between iCal and Outlook and deleted all of the duplicates in my Outlook.
Of course, because I haven't set up Outlook to sync with iCal, iCal and my phone's calendar have not changed. There are still duplicates there.
How do I sync them up again without duplicating any more events, and very importantly, without sending any more email invitations?
Thanks in advance for any help you can be!
Cheers!

My iPhone 4 was working fine, synched with Outlook 2011 on my iMac 11.02 through iTunes. Calendar changes also appeared in iCal, even though I don't use iCal - I only use Outlook. Last week I was prompted to update Outlook, which I did successfully. Today, I plugged the iPhone into the iMac to synch and suddenly all Calendar and Contact items are gone from the iPhone and in iCal on the iMac. In iTunes, the option to synch with Outlook in the Info tab ("other") is greyed out. What happened? Why can't I synch the iPhone anymore with Outlook? All the Calendar and Contact info is still on the iMac in Outlook. Help!

How to sync ical with multiple apple devices and android?

Does anybody have use an android phone in addition to apple devices, and have you figured out how to sync ical with all? (I know there are other calendars that can be used by all, but it means a lot to my husband to stay with ical.)

I tried Yahoo in the past but had trouble with duplicate entries. However, this was a while ago before Yahoo updated their site and this was with syncing to a Windows computer with Outlook in addition to a Mac so my results might not be typical. Yahoo's worth a shot, but my experience with Yahoo is why I use Google Calendar.
Beyond that, I don't know of any other "free" services. There are many other hosted calendar sites that could work, but you'd pay something like $5-$20 per month, which is comparable to MobileMe.

How to sync primary and standby database in 11GR2 on linux

Hi ,
How to sync primary and standby database in 11GR2 on linux . Both my primay and standby are 3 node cluster each.
Can you please suggest a good link and brief steps .
Thanks

Are you trying to setup a new standby or sync an existing standby database?
OK I see it
"standby is behind the primary"
So you have a gap.
I would check both alert logs for a cause. You might find something like this
ORA-12514: TNS:listener does not currently know of service requested in connect descriptor.Look for ORA-00308 and ORA-27037 and ORA-16055.
There's no sense fixing the gap unless the cause is fixed too.
Also check out this post from a few days ago its dealing with similar issues.

How to sync iCal with OUTLOOK 2011 for mac

Is there anybody that knows how to sync iCal with outlook 2011 for mac?

Turn off iCloud and enable iTunes to sync calendars.

Why can I no longer sync iCal and contacts without iCloud?

I dont use iCloud basically because by doing so all your data - specifically your contacts and calendar - gets uploaded to an Apple server where it sits for ever. If you decide you want to stop using iCloud (like you decide for some weird reason to use windows instead...or you move somewhere where there's no internet - its possible) it deletes your data from the device you have unsubscribed from. This basically means once you are on iCloud there is no going back. Apple basically acts as if it owns you and your data and inorder to access it (excude me but my calender and contacts list belongs to me) its obligitory to use Apple and iCloud...if you dont it gets deleted and is gone for ever.
So I sync via USB/WiFi...but now after 'upgrading' to Mavericks this option is no longer permitted? You MUST use iCloud.....WHY?? - I dont want to!
I run a business and use iCal to make all my business bookings - these used to sync easily between my iPad and my iMac. Now it doesnt unless I hand over the rights to all my data for all enternity to Apple inc.
This is my stuff and it doesnt belong to Apple - I want to keep it that way
How can I sync iCal and Contacts without signing away ownership of my diary and contacts to Apple?
Am I going to have to ditch my Mac?? Why wasnt this more widely publicized??
Anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks

Thanks for the reply Arthur. Actually, I just got off the phone with an apple rep telling me you can't downgrade, and that yes, apple actually IS forcing you to use iCloud - if, that is, you actually want to be able to sync your contacts or calendar. Apparently you are special and know something different, so please enlighten the rest of us.
Here is one way
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-6311
Here is another
http://www.apple.com/au/osx/server/
Here is yet another
If your Mavericks came with anything other than Mavericks pre-installed
OS X Mavericks: Revert to a previous OS X version
Also there are a host of other Cloud services you can use. You do not have to use iCloud at all. Although there ARE over 320+ million iCloud presently active, so it is extremely popular with users.

Ask your question.How to sync ical 3 with icloud calendar

How to sync ical 3 with icloud calendar?

And the additional problem is that once you give in and go iCloud, no rep will tell you there are iCloud limits on iCal's size, so that if you're calendar is say 10 years old, with 10 events per day, and there's a 25K event limit, it won't work, even if you buy all the storage in the world. Which means that's syncing is OVER.
So far I've tried three calendar alts: Fantastical (rated one of the top iCal alts); Pocket Informant (allegedly capable of superpowers); and Calendars. Not a single one is able to do the one simple task of
1) integrating an ical ics file,
2) placing a calendar program on the desktop and the iPhone
3) keeping them both in sync.
And Google's cloud has even more restrictions than iCloud, and for frack's sake why can't I keep a calendar off the net?
This is really getting to annoy me. Chelsea, a tech support supervisor, offered that if I pay $99/year I can become a developer and get the next beta iTunes which will allegedly offer local syncing. Great.

Ok... so in that case, what is keeping track of changes to the files on the flashcard? When you plug it into the Mac after using it on the PC, what decides which files are newer and which files to move from the flashcard to the Mac, and which files to move from the Mac to the flashcard? What decides what to do when there is newer data on both?
I suspect you are not actually syncing, but simply manually copying the data each time using the flashcard as the transport medium.
No, I have two sync programs, one on the Mac, one on the PC, they sync their files to the flashcard.

Have you tried configuring iTunes on both your home Mac and work PC to sync calendars to your iPod touch? If so, does it work or is data overwritten?
That was my question, can it be done? I'm guessing, from what you are saying here, that iTunes should be able to handle it? I don't have iTunes on the PC, so I haven't tried it. Is the functionality the same as on the Mac?

How to sync music and video from iPhone4 with iPad mini?

I have music and video on my iPhone4 and I just got my iPad mini yesterday. Does anyone know how to sync music and video between two devices?

Apple doesn't enable you to copy certain items from your iPhone to your computer e.g.
- songs that have not been bought in the iTunes store
- photos from photo album (only allows photos transferred from camera roll)
This is frustrating if you have lost these items on your computer - e.g. accidental deletion, hard disk failure.
Its not that its not possible - just that the functionality is not included in iTunes. Its an example of Apple prioritising revenues over customer experience - hey they can do what they want with their reputation but should take care not to frustrate customers too much.
However the Senuti (free) and PhoneView ($20) allows you to transfer items either way between computer and iPhone. Ive tried both and they work great. These are for OS X and there are many other applications available online for both Windows/Mac that allow you to treat the iPhone as just a plugged in disk too. You can try iPod Photo Liberator (Mac & Windows) iPodCopy (Mac and Windows Versions) Keith's iPod Photo Reader (Mac only).
Good luck

Ical and palm desktop - help

I'm using palm desktop to syn with my palm treo.
I would like to syn my palm desktop calendar with ical.
Anybody knows how to do it?
Thanks!

You cannot simultaneously synchronize 'conflicting' data types with your Palm device. So, for example, your can…
• synchronize contacts between your handheld the Palm Desktop, or
• synchronize contacts between the Address Book and your handheld using iSync, or
• synchronize contacts between the Address Book and your handheld using the Missing Sync for Palm OS and Mark/Space contacts
…but, you cannot choose to perform 2 or more of these options. You must pick an environment—the Palm Desktop or the Address Book and iCal—and a program by which to do this—the Palm Desktop, iSync or the Missing Sync for Palm OS.
The same is true for calendaring and task data. You must choose an environment and an appropriate program to execute and supervise your synchronization events.
It is possible to cross environments by directing contacts to one, and calendaring and tasks to another, but this is a special application best avoided unless you have a very specific reason for choosing this option.
So define precisely what it is you want to accomplish, and I will outline the configuration instructions you need to follow. It's also important to know which Treo model you intend to synchronize, as those prior to the Treo 650 present some challenges, and the Palm OS-based Treo 650 and later another set when iSync is the program chosen.
Any 'advanced' Palm device which uses Palm OS 5.4 or later is better supported by the Missing Sync for Palm OS, and any Palm device which uses the Windows Mobile OS requires the use of third-party software like the Missing Sync for Windows Mobile.

How to sync iCal between iPhone and MacBookPro without MobileMe?

Hello,
How can I sync iCal between iPhone and MacBookPro without MobileMe?
I'm still using MobileMe, but I will stop soon.
I'm using my iPhone in India a lot to create new events or to add new contacts. At the end of the day I would like to able to sync it with my MacBookPro without using MobileMe. Internet Connection is often very bad in that area. The iPhone I only use without UMTS and all that Data Transfering stuff. Best for me would be to sync directly by wire or Bluetooth if possible. If you have a solution with and without Internet Connection, that would be very helpfull to me.

On the Mac, in iTunes with iPhone attached, click on the iPhone section. Go to the "info" tab. There you will see a list of items that can be synced. Make sure that "sync addressbook contacts" is checked, along with the appropriate choices under it.
Don't know what else to say, it works fine here.
Hope this helps.

Help with "Error syncing Audio and Midi" message. How to fix?

Hi,
I'm running Logic Pro 7.1 on a G5 Dual 2.5 PowerMac. My audio interface is a Digidisign Digi002R, and my MIDI interface is a MOTU Fastlane. Up until a few days ago everything was working fine. I didn't install any new software or anything.
All of a sudden in any Logic session I open (new or saved) I get all kinds of artifacts that sound like they're associated with sample rate problems.
True to form, on playback after 4 or 5 seconds a message comes up telling me that there is an error syncing audio and midi. It tells me that a sample rate of 88209, or 88213, or 88207 (each time it's different) was detected, and that there is a conflict between Logic and my external device.
My Digi002R is set to 44.1, and Logic is set to 44.1 as well. I have no idea where this problem came from.
The only thing I do know is that I've been using the Peachtree Press Apple Pro Training Series to study for my Level 1 Logic certification. it comes with a CD with Logic sessions to use with the text. The CD comes with a Logic Epress Demo but I didn't download that as I've already got Logic Pro. I dragged those session files to my desktop, and the problem occured for the first time when iopened up that first session from the CD. After that, every single session has this problem and I have no idea how to fix it.
Sorry for the incredibly long message, but can anybody help?
Thanks
PowerBook G4 15", PowerMac G5 Dual 2.5 Mac OS X (10.4.7)

Hey,
Thanks. I appreciate the help, but I've tried all of that. I just don't get it. I've unplugged everything, I've shut down, powered down, relaunched everything a dozen times and the problem doesn't go away. I know that the problem is with Logic because the interface works perfectly fnie with everything else, from Pro Tools to iTunes.
I'm having Logic Pro 7.2 shipped to me so I'm hoping that installing that will reset everything, but until then I can't do anything in Logic.
Anybody ever encounter anything like this?

ICal and Palm TX no longer syncing properly in 10.4.7

I have a Palm TX and have always been able to update the calendar on my Palm with the events in my iCal. Now it claims that the sync was successful, but not a thing has changed on either device. I doesn't matter what I choose in the conduit settings, they simply won't update each other, despite the fact that both devices say they did. I've tried resets on the Palm and such, but no luck. And there is absolutely no useful information on the Palm site. Even when you try to get Mac info, you are often directed to Windows articles and such. Everything worked until I updated to 10.4.7. Anyone familiar with this?

So I'm not the only one!!!
I have the exact same problem. I have a new MacBook, iPod, and Palm TX. I set them all up (using Missing Sync for the TX, and iTunes for the pod), and everything worked like a champ until one day I opened iCal and discovered it had dumped everything (ALL calendars), so I recreated the calendars & events (didn't have a backup yet), and since then, both Missing Sync and iTunes both show the old (now non-existent) calendars to sync -- not any of my new calendars are avaliable in either program's menu to sync.
I too have emailed MarkSpace (no answer yet) thinking it was originally a Missing Sync issue, but then discovered that iTunes was doing the same thing, so the problem must be in iCal? My updated Address Book contacts sync on both the TX and the iPod like a champ, so the issue must be with iCal I guess...
Glad to hea I'm not the only one who's run into this; thanks in advance for any ideas!
