How do i sync calendar with android phone?

how do i sync calendar with android phone?

Through your Androids Gmail account. Go into system preferences, Mail, Contacts & Calendars, and add your Gmail account info and then link it to your calendar.
You can do the same with a MS Office365 account if that is what you are using for your main email and calendar. And you can link to that on your Android phone also.
If you are using iCloud email I'm pretty sure you can do the same on the phone.
Oh but everything must go through an Online account of one type or another for it to all sync up across all your devices.

  • Mac AddressBook And Calendar with Android Phones

    I know this is blasphemy on an Apple website but I dont currently have an iphone.  In fact, Ive been using an old feature phone but recently won a free Samsung Exhibit II 4G Tmobile phone that I can use on prepaid - and honestly save a lot of money in the next year or so on monthly rates until I perhaps choose to get the next generation of iphone.
    Here's my question if any of you folks know about Samsung or Android.   I want to know if there's a way to sync my Mac Address Book and especially my Calendar to the phone.  Ive read that since Android is Google, its best to have your contacts in Gmail or use a Google calendar and then youre alright - and maybe thats what I need to start doing and just abandon the Mac stuff Ive just gotten used to (Ive only been an Apple/Mac customer for a few months)
    Since this is Tmobile, Im hoping most of my contacts will transfer ok with my SIM Card (So the contacts issue can be postponed I guess until 2012 if/when I get an iphone) but what about the Mac Calendar?  Does anyone here have Android or Samsung phones and can sync their phone and Mac calendars?  Some people have told me their special programs you can buy (which I really dont want to bother with but dont know if that works) ...I just dont want to get into situations where Im having to manually put things into 2 calendars - a phone calendar and a Mac calendar - and Im fearing thats what Im going to have to do.  Maybe thats worth it to save the $20-50 or more each month on a plan...but with all the technology advancements (you can tell Im not a techie nor an early adopter) Id think there'd be an easier way...but maybe theyre just competing operating systems and programs so they are just not compatible and they dont want to be compatible cuz Apple wants you to buy and use all Apple products and so does Google.
    So can anyone give me a simple answer?  (Ive also emailed Samsung but I have a feeling thats not gonna get me much of an answer and calling Apple is probably gonna  yield a response of call the manufacturer of your phone - thats what the Apple store employee told me anyway)
    Thanks

    I guess Im still confused.  I just turned on the Android phone for the first time and the first thing it asks you is for a Google Account so I input one.  But I have 2 Google/Gmail accounts so Im not sure how it works because it seems everything on the Android is connected to 1 account.  Im sure Ill be able to set up 2 Gmail email accounts and just change the passwords to swtich back and forth but I guess the phone needs 1 default account.  It wont automatically load everything with 2 Google Accounts. 
    Still trying to figure out the best way to sync the calendar; Ive been given several options - Im just leery of downloading 3rd party apps - and not sure if theyll just sync the appointments or if its possible to also sync the different color calendars I have in ical
    I know the easiest answer is just stop using ical and use Google...Its just I have other apps that I like using on my mac that are tied into my ical..and I do like having the different color calendars (ie work vs personal).  I noticed that when I exported my ical calendars to Google, they did end up loading onto my phone (they just didnt load the different calendars).  I just want it to be where if Im out and about and add an appointment on my phone (Google Calendar) that it can sync up with my Mac when I get home - ideally wirelessly thru my Airport Extreme but if not even if I have to use a USB.  The problem really is Im not a tech expert, and as you can tell by just getting a smartphone, Im not an early adopter either...and Ive only had the Mac for 4 months and honestly have had more problems with it than with the 10 year old pc it replaced...its all just a lot for me to digest.

  • How do you sync calendar with dashboard calendar?

    I accidentally selected 'no' when asked if dashboard could have access to my calendar (on my Macbook Air) and now I can't figure out how to sync the calendar with the dashboard's so that upcoming events appear on the widget.

    iphone needs iOS5 with enabled iCloud and Macbook needs Lion 10.7.2 and have iCloud preference pane enabled to sync all content exact same as on iOS5 , in your case enable iCal sync on both.
    You have to use the same Apple-ID on both iOS5 and OSX Lion then ( as icloud Apple-ID ).

  • How do I sync Calendar with new iPad mini

    New iPad3 mini. No Calendar entries shown on it. How do I go about syncing it with either iPhone6 or MacBook Pro?

    Hey Seattle! I used to live in Spoke-a-loo! Went from a West Coast state to an East Coast one
    Go to Settings>iCloud and make sure of the following:
    1.     The Apple ID showing at the top is the same one you have signed onto iCloud on your Mac and other devices
    2.     The "Calendar" option is turned on
    3.     That you have a Wifi or Cellular connection. If it is a cellular connection, make sure that under Settings>Cellular>Use Cellular Data For, you have "Calendar" turned on
    Also, not sure what OS X you are running on the Mac, but if it is prior to Yosemite, make sure that when you hook your iPad Mini up to iTunes, and click on the Device, that on the "Summary" device Profile screen, it indicates that you are syncing your Calendar and Contacts via iCloud.
    If all those check out, then go back to Settings>iCloud and scroll to the bottom of the screen and Sign Out/Delete the iCloud account (again, not sure what iOS you are running on the iPad. If it is iOS 8 then it would say Sign Out, if it is iOS 7 or earlier, it will day Delete). Provide your password when prompted, and then answer the questions to complete the Sign Out/Delete. Then sign back on to see if the Calendar info will then be pushed to your device.
    Cheers,

  • How do I sync calendar with clients?

    Hi pmunkholm,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    I have some information that might prove useful to you about iCloud. First, iCloud is a free service, and you can find more information on the basics of it in the following webpage:
    Apple - iCloud - Your content. On all your devices.
    http://www.apple.com/icloud/
    I also have some more specific information for you regarding iCloud calendars and sharing calendars. This article is an overview of calendar sharing:
    iCloud: Calendar sharing overview
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2689
    And this one is about activating sharing on your iCloud calendars:

  • Sync Calander to android phone

    How can I sync to an android phone with Mac book marvericks

    It's a bit difficult to offer specific help since you've neglected to mention which new phone you have, or which old phone you have.
    Contacts coming from the phone will end up in the 'All' group in Address Book, rather than the designated group for syncing. This is a long-standing issue with iSync which Apple seems to not want to fix.
    Presumably all the Contact you want on your new phone are in the Mac Address Book? If so, just create a group in Address Book with the contacts you want on the phone in, then (assuming your new phone is iSync compatible), set up iSync to sync just this group.
    You can set-up iSync to sync different Address Book groups to different phones easily. Just click on the phones icon in iSync and choose the group to sync from the pop-up menu.

  • HT2486 My address book only displays e-mails. How can I sync it with my i-phone to display the address book the same way as my contacts in my i-phone?

    Currently my address book only displays e-mail addresses. It uses the portion of the address in front of the @ as the name. How can I sync it with my i-phone 4S that has name/numbers and addresses of my contacts?

    Hello there, Seta.
    You are correct that this can be done with iCloud. The following Knowledge Base article provides some great instruction for syncing contacts:
    iOS: How to transfer or sync content to your computer
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1296
    Particularly:
    Contacts, Calendars, Bookmarks, and Notes
    You can sync contacts, calendars, bookmarks, and notes with other applications on your computer. This allows you to keep all your information in sync across multiple computers and iOS devices. The settings for these items are all in the Info tab for your iOS device in iTunes. With your iOS device connected to the computer, select your iOS device. Then click the Info tab.
    For details on syncing content on your iOS device with your computer, click the sections below.
    Contacts
    To sync contacts with your computer, choose "Sync Contacts with" within iTunes for Windows, or "Sync Contacts" in OS X v10.8, or "Sync Address Book Contacts" in OS X v10.7 and earlier.
    You can sync your contacts with:
    Microsoft Outlook 2003, Microsoft Outlook 2007, Microsoft Outlook 2010 (Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8)
    Windows Address Book (Windows XP)
    Windows Contacts (Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8)
    Address Book (Mac OS X v10.7 and earlier)
    Contacts (Mac OS X v10.8)
    Microsoft Entourage 2004, Microsoft Entourage 2008, or Microsoft Outlook 2011 for Mac
    Notes:
    When syncing contacts, you can choose to sync all of your contacts or only selected groups. The option to sync selected items may not show up until after the first sync.
    You can select a group of contacts to which all new contacts created on your iOS device will be added.
    Additional options for syncing include syncing your contacts with Yahoo or Gmail/Google Mail. You will need to configure it with the user name and password for your Yahoo or Google account.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Pedro.

  • I have purchased 4 apps that show up on my computer but not my phone.  How do I sync these with my iphone4?

    After purchasing  4 apps  I find them on my computer but not syncing with my Iphone4,. How do I sync these on my phone?

    If you purchased the apps from either the app store on your phone, or the app store that's part of itunes, make sure that you have selected "automatically sync new apps" in the apps pane of your sync window.
    You can also go into your app store on your phone and select the purchased button (under updates)...if you are running the latest software) and get them on your phone that way if you are unable to do a sync now.

  • How can I sync lightning with iphone calendar?

    how can I sync lightning with iphone calendar? I saw online that I need to use a google calendar? I added the google calendar as they described but I have no idea where to go from here

    To sync with iPhone's calendar (also called iCalendar) you need to use a cloud-based calendar. If you already have lightning, install the Google Provider addon and setup Google Calendar. If you have already done that, go to settings on your iPhone. In the Mail, Contacts, and Calendars area, add your Google account, and turn on Calendar. This will sync your Google Calendar with the iPhone.

  • With Mavericks how does one sync calendars without wifi?

    With Mavericks, how does one sync calendars and contacts with iPads/iPods without wifi?

    Syncing with a cable via iTunes has been removed in Mavericks: you are expected to use iCloud or possibly another cloud-based service, which obviously requires you to have access to the internet - requiring wi-fi for the iOS devices. If you have a wired internet connection on the Mac it may be possible to set up internet sharing, where the Mac becomes in effect a wifi station to which devices can connect. I assume this facility is still available in Mavericks - you should ask in the Mavericks forum how to set this up.

  • Since I down loaded Mavericks I can't sync calendars with iPhone. How can I sync iPhone calendar and Mac calendar

    Since I downloaded Mavericks on my Mac I can't sync calendars with iphone. How can I sync iphone calendars with Mac calendar?

    Mavericks syncs Calendar via iCloud.
    Make sure you have the same iCloud account set up on your mac and your iPhone.
    In System Preferences > iCloud, make sure the Calendars checkbox is checked.
    In System Preferences > Internet Accounts, iCloud should be an account in the box on the left, and Calendars should be checked in the box on the right. If you have other calendars, for example, from work, make sure those are enabled too.
    Check the same settings on your iPhone: in Settings > iCloud, make sure the same iCloud account info is present and that the Calendars slider is on. in Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars, make sure the iCloud account is present, and that the Calendars slider is on.

  • Ipad no longer syncs calendar with iphone 6

    My iPad was working fine a few days  ago in syncing calendars with my new iPhone 6; however, I just noticed that when I receive invites [ics] they appear on my iPhone but do not go into the cloud to appear on the iPad.  I tested putting something on my calendar and that appeared on both devices; however, getting a test email from another person, it didn't show.  I signed out/in back into icloud on the iPad and still not syncing.  I feel the sync is broken and I don't know how to get it back. Can someone give me guidance on what to do?  I sync wirelessly on both devices and have also synced the with the cable.  NOTHING.  I use a PC.
