HT4968 How to sync a local calendar with an iCloud calendar, automatically.

I have several iCloud calendars including one for the daily business events. I use a local copy (generated to export/import) for sync with other systems like a BB. The export/import step is a stop gap since, first, its manual and, secondly, its not really synchronizing. Hence, my question: is there a SW or a batch process which snycs iCloud calendars with a local calendar??
Thanks

You can get 2-way synchronization between iCal and google calendar, but you have to start with a google calendar and import that into iCal. You can't sync an existing local iCal calendar with google.
Here's what I would suggest:
1. Export your local iCal calendar as a .ics file.
2. Make a new calendar on google calendars.
3. Upload your .ics file so that it populates your new google calendar with the events from your local iCal calendar (do this via google calendar's web interface).
4. Then use iCal to sync that newly-created google calendar with iCal.
5. Now you can use iCal to edit events in this new google calendar, and they will be synched with the google calendar. You can also edit events using the google calendar web interface, and they will be synched with the version visible in iCal the next time you open iCal or ctrl-click "Refresh" that iCal calendar.
6. You can keep your original local iCal calendar, or delete it, once you know your new setup is doing what you want it to.

  • How to sync Outlook 2010 calendar (on my local windows 7 computer) with my iPhone 5c without  iCloud?

    How to sync Outlook 2010 calendar (on my local windows 7 64 bit computer) with my iPhone 5c without  iCloud?

    You would sync Outlook via iTunes on the computer. Connect the iPhone to the computer, make sure you have the latest version of iTunes running, select the iPhone in iTunes and it will display the Summary page. Select the Info tab, and there you would select what you want to sync calendar and contacts to. Make sure since this is the first time you have done a sync that whichever of the devices is new to the sync process has at least one unique contact/calendar event to get iTunes to prompt you for a merge or replacement. You can see this support document for help in setting up initial syncing. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1296

  • How to migrate a local calendar to a WebDAV server?

    Because I do not like to sync using iCloud I installed Maverick Server to have a local server for my calendars. The other devices in my home can then connect to it. I found it easy to set up using this webpage and it works with a test calendar. I add something in iCal with my MacBook and seconds later it appears on my iPad.
    But I am puzzled on how to migrate my local calendars in iCal to the server. I tried to export them to the desktop and then import them into the server calendar I see in iCal. Then iCal gives this warning:
    Should I proceed? I do not want to damage 12 years of iCalendar data. I have backups, but preventing a mess is always easier.

    Surprisingly, this morning all calendars showed up in my iPhone. Apparently there is a delay.
    But now there is another issue with the error:
    "The server responded with an error.
    Access to “event from years ago” in “the second added calendar” in account “local” is not permitted.
    The server responded:
    “403” to operation CalDAVWriteEntityQueueableOperation."
    [Ignore] [Try Again] [Revert to Server]
    Each event starting with the beginning of that calendar (years ago) seems to generate an error. It will take a day to click on Ignore for all those events.
    Will ask this in a new thread. For now the issue this thread is about is solved, thank you. I also updated my profile, except for my iPad. No 'edit' option next to that one. Strange.

  • How can I use Local SPAN with RSPAN ??

    How can I use Local SPAN with RSPAN ??
    I want to mirror traffics from ISP-A and ISP-B to Anomaly-detector module.
    so I had configured like this...
    C6500-A
    vlan 1000
    name RSPAN
    remote-span
    monitor session 10 source interface Gi5/1 - 2 rx
    monitor session 10 destination remote vlan 1000
    monitor session 20 destination anomaly-detector-module 3 data-port 1
    monitor session 20 source remote vlan 1000
    interface GigabitEthernet1/13
    switchport
    switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q
    switchport trunk allowed vlan 1000
    switchport mode trunk
    no ip address
    C6500-B

    I'd enter a command 'show anomaly-detector module 3 data-port 1 traffic'

    Can I use VACL configuration ?

    try to change "monitor session 10 destination remote vlan 1000 " to "monitor session 10 destination anomaly-detector-module 3 data-port 1 " on C6500-A

  • Can't sync my local contact with gmail, help please.

    Hi all,
    I originally had my contact on BB Bold, then when i bought Z10 i transferred the contact using bb Link, now i have another phone (Samsung Galaxy S4) and i want my contact to by synced between both using gmail, so i configured my gmail on both devices, the configuration is 100% correct because in Z10 if i open Contacts then select Gmail category, and create a new contact i find it after a while in my Samsung,
    but the problem is all my contacts available in the (All) which i believe its saved locally
    Best Regards,
    Alaa Bayer.

    Thanks alot elessar,
    The problem that i moved my contact from my bold to Z10 using Link, and my contacts was saved localy in the Bold and the same in Z10, so i never used Gmail or so what ever to sync the contacts.
    but now to transfer my contacts from Z10 to Samsung Galaxy S4 i wanted to sync these local contacts with Gmail, but when i configured Gmail on Z10 it creates like a different container which is ofcourse empty, so if i go to All, i see my contacts, but if i go to Gmail contacts i have nothing.
    if i create a new contact in Gmail container it copied immidetly to the Samsung so sync and configurations is OK.
    So my problem  to move the contacts on my Z10 from Local container to Gmail container.
    actully after alooooot of searches i found a solution and it worked perfectly, i installed on my Z10 a software name (IntouchApp) which can see the local container on Z10 and sync them to IntouchApp servers then install the same softwar in my Galaxy and sync the contacts, then on the galaxy i exported the contacts to SD Card, then import it to Gmail, and finally i got my contacts on Gmail.
    i don't know why Blackberry completly separate the contacts as containers and there is no option to transfer from one to another.
    in any way i just sold out my Z10 yesterday and bye bye blackberry for every.

  • How can I sync my local calendars in iCal with Leopard?

    I have a number of local calendars that I've been exporting to FileMaker into my /user/Library/Calendars folder, and syncing in iCal. I was using, as an example, "http://localhost/~johnnolan/bookings.ics" as a URL in iCal.
    Now, with Leopard, my calendars don't refresh, and if I re-enter the url that had worked, I get this message:
    "Connection to the server localhost was refused"
    How can I fix this?

    I find that I can sync fine with Entourage and I cal under Leopard. I can also subscribe to the Leopard I-calendar on another computer (running Tiger). However, the calendar will not go onto a web page as it used to; this is very frustrating for my colleagues! We need a fix here I think.

  • How to sync the N900 calendars with the computer?

    Good evening everyone,
    I am a user of the N900 since February 2010 and it's my favorite phone of all the phones that i ever had. I really enjoy every second when i use it
    However, I have a "little" trouble now.
    The touchscreen doesn't respond normally anymore. When I touch it there's no reaction. The Calendar app or the Settings for example don't open. When I touch in the middle for example something completely different opens: desktop configuration. When I slide from one desktop to the other it stops in the middle and goes back to the previous one instead of moving to the next one. Or sometimes there's no response at all and I have to restart the phone, although it doesn't improve anything. I don't know how this happened because the other night I could normally use it, I set an alarm clock. And in the morning I couldn't turn this alarm off because the screen broke down during the night lol :/ what can be done to make the screen work again? Can I do something myself at home or do I have to take it for repair?
    So now I want to make on the laptop a backup of all the data I have on the phone. There was a moment when the screen worked normally again, so I took advantage of this situation to turn on the Bluetooth. I synced most of the data. It's a piece of cake for the pics, videos, contacts and messages. But I am unable to find a way of syncing the Calendar. Ovi Suite doesn't have this option so I tried with Nokia PC Suite. I managed to sync only a part of all the entries I have there :/ I realized that it syncs only the default one ("General" I think it's called in english?). I have 7 other calendars like "Work", "Fun" or "Events". How can I save those calendars on my laptop? Please
    Any advice/help is most welcome! Waiting

    Are you people serious? Sorry for being so direct, but this is supposed to be a help forum for Nokia users. NO ONE is able to give me even 1 solution??????? or at least hints??
    As always I can't count on others for help and have to do everything myself even though I'm not a smartphone geek. After a few days of search I managed to find a way to maybe sync the created calendars. But I have to create a profile in Outlook (what the hell?). Okay, I created a profile in Outlook according to the steps mentioned on a website and I still can't sync the calendars with Nokia Ovi Suite! WHY??? In addition, in the settings of the N900 in "Transfer & Sync" when I want to create a new data transfer profile I can't find my laptop as a device in the Bluetooth search list. I am UNABLE to sync/transfer data. I'll try now with the USB cable...
    PLEASE HELP OUT.

  • How to sync outlook 2007 calendar with Iphone 4?

    How do I sync my outlook 2007 calendar with my iphone 4? It used to happen, now it won't work. Thank you.

    Howdy there Connie,
    If your Outlook 2007 is still not syncing to your phone I would like to recommend the following article to help you troubleshoot the Sync Services between your the two devices, named:
    Troubleshooting Sync Services on Windows with Microsoft Outlook 2003, Outlook 2007, or Outlook 2010
    First backup your data, THEN proceed with the articles troubleshooting step by step until it is resolved:
    Back up your data
    Refer to this Microsoft article for steps to back up the data in your PST file used by Microsoft Outlook 2003 or Microsoft Outlook 2007. This Microsoft article explains where the Microsoft Outlook 2010 data files are located.
    For information about backing up the data in your OST file, contact your Exchange Administrator. Your OST file should be on the server and backed up when the server is backed up.
    Before troubleshooting, it is recommended that you make a copy of your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch backup in a safe place. For more information about where to find the backup and what information it contains, refer to About backups.

  • How to sync my google calendar with iCloud ?

    To sync my work calendar (that uses outlook) with my iPhone, Is sync my work calendar with my Gmail Calendar so I get my gmail alendar on my iPhone.
    But on my iPhone the gmail calendar is not the account that is linked to my iCloud account.
    So how can copy all my calendar items into my iCloud calendar, so it get synchronised on my MAc ?
    Thanks

    Yes but if set iCloud as my default calendar it wont resolve my problem. Because If I add an item into my Gmail calendar, it will successfully get synch into my iPhone but as it is the gmail cal it won't be ssnch with my mac
    (If I add directly an item into my iphone, it will get synch with my mac)
    So to be clear, is there a way to copy on the fly items inserted from GCal to Icloud cal ?
    add item in my work calendar -> get synch to GCal -> get synch on my iphone GCal -> copy that to iCoud Cal -> get synch through ICloud into my Mac

  • ICal - iPhone sync. Local calendar not showing up in iTunes list of available calendars, only Exchange calendars.

    iTunes only shows Exchange-calendars in the list where you can choose which calendars (we're talking about "calendars", not "accounts") you want to synchronize. If I add a local calendar in iCal, I can not choose it to synchronize with my iPhone. It simply doesn't show up in the list of available calendars. How does iTunes compile this list of available Calendars to synchronize?

    Hi Zachary,
    Here is an article I'd suggest to troubleshoot this situation:
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538
    You may only need to go through the steps with one device and have it resolve for the others.
