How to sync *already existing* iCal calendars on iCloud ?

I was using iCal on my Mac before moving to OS X 10.7.2, and since I did the update to get iCloud, instead of sync my existing calendars on iCloud, it created 2 new empty calendars ("People" and "Work").
How to turn off these new calendars, and instead ensure that it is my existing calendars that are synchronized on iCloud?
Thanks in advance.

If I understand your question correctly, just log into your iCloud account through your browser, load iCal where you should be able to see all of your calendars in the left hand pane. If your two empty calenders are listed there uncheck them both which should hopefully solve your problem.

    How to sync Address Book, iCal, Bookmarks between my iMac and Macbook?

    Geez, ya big meanie, give the guy a break. Not everyone wants to spend $50 on a syncing solution! He just asked a question, and you heap attitude on him about his finances. Not your business!
    5480, syncing that information between two Macs is both easy and tricky at the same time. It’s easy because you really can just copy the files back and forth. But it can get tricky if, for instance, you were to change information on both sides. Then you’ve got two different versions! The general solution to this is to be pretty careful about only changing data on one side at a time. If you add some contacts on one side, don’t go working in Address Book on the other side until you’ve copied the new info over.
    “Exporting” the data, burning to CD, and then importing it on the other Mac would be a total pain in the ***, though. Much too time consuming. What you need to do, if you don’t want to pay for a solution (I didn’t for ages), is just learn to hook your computers together on a network, and copy over the relevant files directly (no exporting, no CD burning). Address Book, iCal and bookmarks data is all stored in folders in your Library folder. You just copy it over! Be sure to quit the applications before moving the data.
    Where exactly are these files, you say? How do you network? Figuring out the details is your homework assignment, but the method works. Good luck!

  • How can I restore my ical calendars with TM

    Hello everybody,
    how can I restore my ical calendars with TM.
    Where are the calender files ical uses.
    Thanks for answering
    Bernhard

    They are in yourusername/Library/Calendars/. Each one is named with its unique ID, so you'll have to go into each one and Quicklook the Info.plist file. Towards the end of the file it will have a Key of Title and the name of the calendar. If you want to restore the whole calendar, restore the individual calendar folder. You can also restore individual events by digging into the Calendar (again, use Quicklook to view). Quicklook can be used while in Time Machine.
    Or, you can restore all calendars by restoring the Calendars folder.

  • HT4967 how do i add an ical to my icloud

    How do i add an ical to my icloud?
    Thanks,
    Todd

    "iCal" was the name of the calendar app/program used before Mountain Lion, now it's called Calendar.
    Since "iCal" is the name of an app, I don't know what you mean by "add"ing it to icloud.
    If you mean you want your calendars synced to other devices via icloud, then you need to go to the iCloud setting (on iOS look in Settings, and System Preferences on a mac) and turn on Calendar.
    To add a new calendar to the set of calendars:
    If on icloud.com with a browser, click the Calendars button in the upper left, click Edit, then the + button.
    On a mac or device, look for the same kind of thing.

  • My friend and I share an iCal calendar through iCloud.  Until recently, we would receive email notifications if either of us made changes to or added an event to the iCal calendar.  Does anyone know why those email notifications stopped?

    My friend and I share an iCal calendar through iCloud.  Until recently, we received email notificiations anytime either of us made changes to exisiting calendar events or added new items to the calendar.  Does anyone know why these email notificiations stopped?

    iCloud was experiencing problems with this a couple of days ago, where many users with shared calendars were getting email notifications even though their iCloud settings did not select to receive them.  Perhaps when they fixed this problem it reverted your settings to not receive email notifications.  Got to iCloud and check your setting for this.  If it still look correct, try turning off email notifications, save the change, then turn them back on again and save the change again.

    When I sync my outlook 2013 calendar via Icloud, the changes that i made in my computer does not appear on my Iphone-4

    If you using on a windows pc, maybe you should reinstall the iCloud Control Panel. You can download the latest version from here: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1455?viewlocale=en_US
    If you cant see your changes on icloud.com than you have trouble between outlook and icloud. this is the part of the icloud control panel.

  • Ical 5.0.1: Subscribed calendar already exists (phantom calendar)

    So it looks like a few people have this problem but no one has reponded with working answer. I thought I would try again. So my particular issue is that I am trying to re-subscribe to a calendar that I have previously deleted but iCal is telling me that the calendar already exists. I don't see the calendar listed in my subscribed calendars listing anywhere or anywhere else for that matter so I am trying to understand how I can completely remove this subscribed calendar so that I can re-subscribe to it.
    I have 2 other subscribed calendars that I have deleted and re-subscribed to and didn't have any issues. Just this one calendar. I did noticed that I was using icloud to sync my subscribed calendars to my icloud.com account but I have removed that setting and tried to re-subscribe again but no luck.
    Is there a way that I can delete the phantom calendar either or reset my iCal complete so that I can set it up as if it were a first time launch?
    The reset might be the best approach if it can be done since my subscribed calendars are also not respecting the colors that I have assigned them (they are all grey).
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hello all,
    I'm still having this issue and would really like any suggestions if anyone knows of any. Basically, I need to view my calendar that doesn't have any events so I can change the password and get any new events for it.
    Because the calendar app does not show the calendar in the calendar listing if it doesn't have any events (not smart btw), I don't have a way to change its information. And attempting to re-subscribe gives me the error that the calendar already exists.
    Is there a way that I can view "all" calendars even if they are hidden or don't have any events scheduled for them so that I can change the login credentials? This issue is on the calendar app version 6.0 build 1645 on my mac os x laptop.
    I know there has to be a way to do this but I just can't seem to find it and googling is not turning up any results. Even searching my my keychain for the login information and the systems preferences has not shown me anything.
    Any help is appreciated. Thanks

  • How do I get desktop ical calendars to appear in ICloud

    I'm helping an office mate to get her new iphone, etc to work in concert.  We've updated her desktop to Lion.  Trying to get everything to synch.  What a royal pain.  I've been using Google Calendar and Contacts and Email for a year and a half with no problem synching everything across my android phone and multiple computers and ipads without a problem.  It's platform independant.  Everything can be web based.  What the heck was Apple thinking. 
    Can anyone point me to a document that explains how this is supposed to work...?

  • How can I find the URL for an iCal calendar in iCloud so I can make a link to it on a web page.

    I have a single iCal calendar that I want people to access through my webpage.  How can I find the URL so that they can view the calendar without having to subscribe to it.  I converted to iCloud from .Mac and I can see that changes to this calendar are not showing up.

    Mmmh.. i see... I don't know wether it is possible for people just check calendars without subscribing to them... I have been sharing some calendars in my website (maybe you can have a look at it in order to check wether it could be a possible solution for you)

  • Can I sync a single iCal calendar only and not all my calendars?

    I use iCal at work and at home. I have two calendars: work and family. I use my .Mac account to sync my two calendars between my home computer and work computer. While at work today I subscribed to several of my employees' iCal calendars so that we could coordinate our schedules. However, now those employee calendars are being sync'd to my home iCal.
    Is there a way to continue using my .Mac account to sync my home and work calendars but not those of my employees??? Thanks in advance!
    Joe

    Thanks for the thought. I just tried that and when I select .Mac in iSync it tells me I no longer use iSync to sync and it opens the .Mac preferences window. The .Mac preferences do not seem to allow specific calendars - just check whether you want "calendars" to sync....
    Is there another way?

  • How do i share 1 ical calendar between 2 macs and 2 iphones using mobile me?

    i need one universal shared calendar to use between 2 macs and 2 iphones.
    i'll explain what i need to do, since i am so confused.
    we operate our company using 2 computers, an iMac & a macbook.  we also have 2 iphones.
    i want to be able to edit/add/delete events and to-do's in 1 shared calendar between all of them. 
    i do not want to have to sync ALL of our calendars as some of us have our personal calendars in iCal as well.
    we have a mobileme account as well.
    is there a way to do this?
    thank you!
