How can I import my Google calendar to iCloud calendar via web or ios?

I've decided I want to move from contacts/calendar in gmail to icloud. I was going to do the same with mail, but it seems iCloud doesn't have the level of functionality that gmail does.
My problem is that all instructions for importing my gmail calendar into icloud require some sort of desktop (I use PC) mail/calendar program. I don't use one. I manage my mail & calendars purely on my iphone or on the website(s). How can I import my .ics file into iCloud calendar via either the iCloud web interface or via my iPhone?

The only possible way I could imagine it might work ( can't guarantee it ) is as followed.
#1 Your Google Calendar is synced with your iphoen and you go into settings to turn it off.
#2 It will ask you: "What would you like to do with excisting local calendars on your iphone", you click keep them on iphone.
#3 Now you sync your empty icloud calendar with your iphone and hopefully the local calendar would sync on your icloud calendar?
Might work...not sure, play around with the settings in the iphone calendar app etc...

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    All iWork apps allow you to save your documents on your computer. You will be able to choose the destination when you want to save a document.
    You can also disable iCloud for some apps. To do that, go to System Preferences -> iCloud, press "Options" next to "iCloud Drive" and disable the apps you want to.
    If you have lost your old documents, you should have a backup that you made before upgrading to OS X Yosemite, so you only have to restore it.

  • How can I move my Google calendar to iCloud calendar???

    On the iPhone I sync the calendar and mail (without contacts) with google. I want to move the current Google calendar to iCloud and start syncing with it from now on.
    I could export google calendar to an ical file but iCloud calendar doesn't have an import option. I don't have an Apple computer.
    So, how can I back up all my google calendar entries into iCloud???
    Thanks!

    So I solved this today.......I really wanted to switch everything over to iCloud calendar from Google Calendar (and had entries since 2008).....The easiest way to do this is using iCal on a Mac. The problem was I don't have a Mac. So I went down to my local Apple store (I guess you could use a friend's or work Mac as well). I asked them if I could use a Mac for a bit to get my iCloud calendar to work and was allowed to do so. Here's what I did....
    I opened my google calendar on the store Mac's safari (or maybe it was firefox, I don't remember now)
    I went into settings and found the export section. Then I exported all my calendars onto the desktop in a Zip file(I have 13 of them!)
    Next I opened iCal on the Mac. I added 13 different calendar titles (I used the same titles from my Google calendar) under the add calendar setting (this would be so much easier if I didn't have so many different calendars)
    Next I imported each calendar from the Zip file into their respective calendar titles(again this would be easy with fewer calendars but even with 13 of them it only took 10 minutes)
    Finally I went to network settings, opened up iCloud setting and put in my user name and password. All my calendars uploaded to my iCloud calendar.
    I opened iCloud calendar on safari and logged in. All my calendars were there. They weren't in the same colors as the one's on my google calendar but all of it was there (More on this later).
    To finish up I deleted my iCloud account settings under network settings, deleted all the iCal entries, and logged off of the the iCloud and Google calendars (don't want anyone in my stuff)
    When I got home I logged in to iCloud and changed the calendar colors to suit my preferences.
    Sorry this was a bit long winded....all in all it took about 20-25 minutes and was really easy

  • How can I sync my google calendar to my ical?

    My boos has an ical and he wants to sync google calendar in it, how can we do that?

    Hi,
    To set up Google Calendar in iCal on Lion: Open iCal > Preferences > Accounts, and click the plus button to set up a new account. The pop-up dialog has a drop-down, choose Google. Type in your Google username and password and click Create.
    Best wishes

  • How can I import my Google Contacts to use with Apple Mail?

    Google's GMail user interface has become impossible to use. Its most important and useful features are either hidden or have been removed. I want to change to use Apple Mail to retrieve email from my Google account, to answer that email, and to compose new messages.
    To compose new messages, I need to be able to use my Google Contacts (created one by one as I've used GMail in the past). I could either "set things up" so that Mail would access my Google Contacts or I could import my Google Contacts to a Mail address book. How do I accomplish one or the other?
    Your assistance will be greatly appreciated.

    Hi David C. Murray!
    There are a couple of methods for accomplishing this goal. First, you could always export your Google contacts in vCard format and then import them into Contacts on your computer:
    Contacts (Mavericks): Export and import contacts
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH15080
    The other option is to set your Google contacts to automatically sync with your Contacts app on your computer:
    Contacts (Mavericks): About Contacts accounts
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH15070
    Contacts can manage your contact information from other accounts, such as Facebook and Google. Just add those accounts (choose Contacts > Add Account), and you’ll have access to all your current contact information from anywhere.
    Thanks for being a part of the Apple Support Communities!
    Regards,
    Braden

  • How can I import an ics calendar file to my iPAd2

    I want to import my Windows calendar into my iPad2. I've tried using the ics file which is mentioned in the manual but no joy. What can I do?

    I have done extensive research and it appears that this can't be done.  A couple of people said you can email your .ics file to the iOS device, click on the file and you will be prompted to add the events to the calendar.  But this process failed for me, and when I tried it a second time, I didn't get the "add all" option any more.  I'm guessing the 4000 or so events were too much for the phone's processing and syncing capabilities.  Anyway, Apple's failure to support a basic function like .ics import on Windows means that I won't be using iCloud anytime soon.  It's too bad, because I would appreciate the ability to set a reminder on the desktop and have it work on the phone, which I can't do with my Gmail calendar.

  • How can I import outlook contacts in my icloud?

    I exported outlook contacts as csv and xls  - but there is no way to import them all at once in my icloud contacts. How can help?

    Why don't you just install the iCloud Control Panel on your PC and let iCloud do it for you?

  • How can I sync contacts and calendar via iTunes 11.1.8 to iOS 3.1.3 (iPhone 1)?

    I am proud owner of an iPhone 1 and it still works fine, but runs on iOS 3.1.3. I updated my 2 year old iMac to Mac OS X (10.9) and I am now using iTunes 11.1.8. Actually, I bought my iMac because I was so enthusiastic to see how smooth syncing with my iPhone worked. Now, since OS X, I can not sync calendar and contacts anymore. I had to reset my iPhone and start from scratch, so contacts and calendar are empty.
    Sync via iTunes does not work anymore because Apple deleted the direct sync function and my iPhone's iOS does not support iCloud.
    Sync via CalDav does not work, beause for some reason my iCloud account is not approved when trying to create it in mail/calendar/contacts (I tried several times, crosschecked, all data appear correct to me and work in the browser access).
    Sync via Google does not work, because obviously, my iOS does not support their calendar and contacts function.
    Sync via Windows PC might work, but I would have to set one up from scratch.
    Downgrading to iTunes 10.7 failed, because OS X didn't allow it. Downgrading the Mac OS might be an option, but I am already running e.g. Books and using it a lot.
    Any help is welcome.
    Iris
    P.S.: I still remember Steve Jobs saying "it simply works!"

    Thank you Meta, but I could not get the calendar and contact sync with Gmail to work. Apple support already suggested to use Google or a Windows PC. Maybe I should actually reset and try my old Windows PC. Seriously, ... can this be the solution after a Mac OS update for pure Apple users?
