How do I share iCal 5.0 calendars with PC's...

Prior to Lion, PC XP users in my office could subscribe to my iCal calendars. As I understand it, in Lion, I can Share calendars, but do my PC users need to have an iCloud account? And if so, is XP even compatible with iCloud? And if not, what do I do?

I'm afraid you can't do this in Leopard. I quote:
'Features of the MobileMe Calendar that are not available with Mac OS X Leopard:
Push updates. See this article for more information.
The ability to share and accept shared calendars with others from within iCal. These changes can still be made at me.com/calendar.
Subscribed calendar syncing.'

  • How do i sync ical to google calendars with Leopard?

    Hi I am trying to syn two macbooks ical to google calendars.  I can do it on one by going ical>preferences>accounts>+account>
    which pops up a box with  Accounts information : server settings:  Delegation along the top and description: username:password:fullname:refreshcalendars along the left
    But after ical>preferences>accounts>+account> on the other older macbook with Leopard OS the pop up is more basic with no tabs across the tops just down the left description :username:password: account URL
    But when I input exactly the same info it says the login failed - your password was rejected by the server but the password is absolutely correct and I have double checked it by logging in else where.
    Any advice?

    I found the answer.
    The computer that I was having problems adding the Ical cal dav account to for google calendars has iCal 3 software;
    This is how to set up the account after turning on 2 step verification in google and creating a application specific password
    Set Up Google Calendar iCal Sync in iCal 3
    To set up Google Calendar iCal synchronization manually:
    Select iCal | Preferences... from the menu in iCal.
    Go to the Accounts tab.
    Click + beneath the Accounts list.
    Enter "Google Calendar" under Description:.
    Type your Google Calendar account user name (say, your Gmail address) under Username:.
    Enter the Google Calendar account's password under Password:.
    Expand Server Options.
    Type "https://www.google.com/calendar/dav/" (not including the quotation marks) underAccount URL:.
    Append your Google Calendar user name to that.
    Append "/user" (excluding, again, the quotation marks) to the that.
    Finally, you could have something like "https://www.google.com/ calendar/ dav/[email protected]/user" under Account URL:.
    Click Add.
    Highlight the newly added account in the Accounts list.
    Go to the Delegation tab.
    Make sure all calendars you want to access in addition to your default Google Calendar calendar are checked.
    Close the Accounts preferences window.

  • How do I share address book and calendars with other iCloud users?

    I guess the title of the discussion question says it all.
    My wife, and other family members want to SHARE Contacts, Calendars etc... with other iCloud users.
    Simple task... most people would want to do it...
    But... I can't find an easy answer... how do I do it?

    Roger, thanks... I had continued my search and found this information on the discussion.
    Now, my biggest concern is the ADDRESS BOOK... I'd like to publish, specific GROUPS within my master Address Book to other iCloud users... with either Read Only, or Read Write permisions.
    Do you have any knowledge or suggestion on how that can be accomplished in iCloud?
    It seems as though this would be FOUNDATIONAL in iCloud if APPLE expects it to be a USABLE SERVICE.
    Thanks for your help...

  • How can I share a project specific calendar I created on Entourage 2008 ?

    How can I share a project specific calendar I created on Entourage 2008 without showing my personal calendar? I created a project specific calendar using Entourage 2008 for Mac. I want to add someone that uses Outlook from a PC. We are in the same exchange network.  I have added this person in under the sharing tab, but don't see a way to invite her to view it, and it does not appear on her Outlook list of shared calendars. I was able to invite her to view my main calendar, but not the project specific one. Any suggestions?

  • How do I sync iCal on my mac with OS 8 devices

    How do I sync iCal on my mac with OS 8 devices

    Hi jgiolma,
    Since you do not mention what version of the Mac operating system you are running on your MacBook Pro it is a little hard to answer your question. For computers running Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5 or later one way to sync your calendars would be to use iCloud. See this article for minimum system requirements for iCloud -
    System requirements for iCloud
    Information on using iCloud for your calendars can be found here -
    iCloud: Calendar overview and
    iCloud: Using iCloud Calendars with Calendar and iCal
    More general information about iCloud is available here -
    Apple - iCloud - Everything you love, everywhere you go.
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Best,

  • I need to share one of my calendars with a co-worker.  There is no publish option.

    I need to share one of my calendars with a co-worker.  There is no publish option.

    Only 'On My Mac' calendars can be published to a web page, but calendars listed under your MobileMe login name for syncing can be shared privately (editable if required) with other MobileMe subscribers, or publicly (non-editable) for general access using a CalDAV client such as iCal or Google Calendar.
