ICal and Oracle's Corporate Calendar

Does anybody know if it is possible to set up iCal to use oracle's Corporate Calendar?

Welcome to Apple Discussions.
I don't believe so, though only Oracle support personnel could probably tell you for sure. There is hope in the near term, however, as both Apple and Oracle are members of CalConnect, the calendar and scheduling consortium:
http://www.calconnect.org
Mac OS X 10.5 will ship early next year with iCal, Teams and the iCal Server components, will will be CalDAV compliant. It's the emerging calendaring standard being jointly developed by CalConnect members. In addition, Apple is already shipping an open-source version of the technology incorporated in iCal Server.
So, it shouldn't be long now…

ICal and .Mac - using the calendar on the Web

I had fondly imagine when I filled out my calendar on my home Mac and published it to .Mac that I could not only view it when I am at work (where I have to use a pc) but also add in calendar info that I have have access to only when I am at work, so that the calendar is complete.
If this is meant to be possible I haven't figured out how -can any one help?
If not possible it does seem to detract quite significantly from what might otherwise be a useful tool. In fact I can't imagine why this ability would not be built in as it seems starkly obvious that if you have access to your calendar over the web, you must want to be be able to edit it over the web?? Or have I missed something?

Why oh why doesn't some enterprising person or company (I'm looking at YOU Apple) please make this work. How many people share this problem? I have a PC at work, my finance has a PC at work, we both use our Mac at home.
If there's a way to share out Outlook calendars with our iCal calendars I swear I'd do a happy dance.

Want to SAVE Old ical, and create a NEW Calendar???????

Hi there,
I am a school teacher and I used ical a lot this year. However, this September, I have a whole new bunch of courses.
Is there a way, to 'save' my 2005-6 calendar (with all my course due dates, all colour co-ordinated etc), and to create a totally new calendar?
Every time I click on 'new calendar', it just creates another blank box under 'calendar', but my old ones are just above it.
Does this make any sense? i'll see if I can do a screen capture shot. In the meantime if anyone has any advice, it would be much appreciated
thanks

Hi George,
You would be well advised to back up all your data regularly.
About to backing up iCal specifically as an archive of events, there absolutely is no reason not to do this annually.
As to how you organise your calendars, this depends on many factors including how many different types of class you run and if they can sensibly be divided into groups.
Group calendars are intended to define groups of calendars and moving calendars into groups should not affect the colouring of the events. An advantage of groups is that you can show and hide all of the sub calendars in one go.
Take a look at iCal Help (in iCal's Help menu) for more info.
Best wishes

ICal and access to Public Calendars on Exchange

Dear all
I've been reading as much as I can on this subject, and all I've found so far is that it works, but you need Exchange 2007 and SP2. Well, I've finally been able to upgrade my exchange 2007 server to SP2, but now I can't find any documentation on how you actually access those public calendars.
By public calendars, I mean that calendars stored in the Public Folders tree on the exchange server, not calendars associated with a mailbox or resource mailbox.
Things I've tried,
- Subscribing to the calendar using the OWA web address of the calendar - failed
- Setting up delegate access, but only mailbox calendars are shown - failed
- Tried removing and recreating my Mail/iCal/Address book settings in Snow Leopard, no change - failed
I hope I'm just missing something, and that this is actually possible to do.
Thanks in advance for any help.

Same problem here. I previously used Entourage (2004) and had access to the public calendar (we'll call it "Jumper"), but I get an error when trying to connect to Jumper in iCal. When I try to connect I get "The server responded with an error: There was an unexpected error with the request (domain EWSExchangeWebServicesErrorDomain / error 94)." I notice when I go to the "Window" menu there are several listings of Jumper (I'm assuming each failed attempt created a window). Selecting those windows opens a blank calendar with Jumper listed in the left column and the exclamation point next to it. Clicking the exclamation point brings up the message "iCal can't refresh the account 'Jumper'." I'd hate to go back to Entourage as well, especially since the version our company provides is PPC based.
I'm not sure, but it could be in my case it's because the host of the public calendar may still be in the old email server (2003). They had to move my account over to the 2007 server in order for iCal to work with it. Don't know if this helps anyone else, but I'm going to request that the host be moved to the 2007 server and see what happens. I'll report back on my findings.

How do I get Siri to put appointments on iCal and not to Google Calendar?

When I give Siri the command to schedule appointment, the appointment is put on my google calendar and not my iCal. How do I change this?

See if you have selected your "iCal" calendar as your default calendar in settings (Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Default Calendar).

Ical and G3 iphone Some calendars do not sync.

Hello,
I am trying to sync my iphone to my computer. when i sync only certain calendars show up in my computer. Yes, I have checked itunes. I have "sync all" still certain calendars do not show up. I have selected the Calendar Name on itunes (that is not syncing) and done a "selected" sync...that does not work either.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Hi 2Borno28;
Thanks that worked for me. When I was reimporting my calendar events after creating the calendars again one of my calendars reported that I had unsafe alarms in that calendar and wanted to know if I wanted them copied also. I said no and the next sync to my iPhone worked correctly.
It appears that on/or about the time I upgraded to Leopard I had managed to create unsafe alarms what ever they are. I had been unfairly blaming this problem on Leopard ever since.
Thanks. I only wish I could give you a star for that one.

Updated iCal and lost all recent calendar entries/schedules...

hello, i did about 1 hour of editing and updating and adding new events on my iCal today. And for the first time, i accessed my iCal from the web, and it looked good and accurate. A few hours later, I decided to reply to the iCal update prompt, and so I clicked update. I opened up iCal after the update and all recent edits/additions I made early today, were all gone. Even after I restarted the computer. Very, very stupid. This is why people are so skeptical with updates. Can someone help? This seems like an issue that would happen 10 years ago, not today. Thank you!!
Also, can we no longer browse the categories of discussions to see if our question can be answered by previous posts? I clicked on "browse" in the top right corner of the discussion page where the "new" and "my stuff" links are, and it went straight to a page that had no category options. Just all posts, of all topics. Thanks again....

oh my goodness..... and now, there is a duplicate color in the 3 categories of events within iCal (personal, work, and home).
Personal, and Work are both green now.
Doesn't this defeat the whole purpose of different colors?
what is going on here?

All the dates I have put on my Ical and even on the calendar of Iphone are disappeard, please help, all the dates I have put on my Ical and even on the calendar of Iphone are disappeard, please help

ICal and iPod glitch?

I want to know if this is a glitch or if there is something wrong with my equitment. What happens is I have a reoccuring event and when I delete one of the events inbetween it goes away from my iCal like it should but on my iPod it remains. So if someone else could try recreating this problem on their equipment that would be great here is what you do:
Make an event that reoccurs everyday for a week.
Sync iPod
Now delete one of the events in the middle (say the reoccurence on a wed. just delete that one event for that day and it will ask and respond "only this event")
Now Sync iPod again and see on the wed (or whatever day you did) is still appearing on the iPod even though you deleted it on the iCal.
Thank you,
TM

T.M.
I just tried doing what you suggested and it turned out as it is supposed to. I used to have issues (still have one, in fact) that were similar.
What I did to start with a clean slate is this:
First I went into iCal and set up my calendars the way I wanted them. Recurring events were set up, etc.
Before syncing with my iPod, I opened the iPod as a disk and trashed the calendar folders. Now this is important - you must empty the trash before syncing, otherwise for some strange reason, the trash is placed back on the iPod.
Now do a sync and all should be well. Then try your test again and see if it solves your issue.
The one issue I haven't been able to resolve is that I have a recurring event for the last Friday of every month. It is properly set up on iCal, but when synced to the iPod, the event shows up on the last Thursday of every month. Strange as that sounds, imagine this - once the event showed up on Friday as was proper, then after the next sync it went back to Thursday even though the event remained the same, untouched, on iCal.
Hope I've helped you out. Let me know if the above works for you, I'm curious.

Need help syncing iCal and Outlook 2011 (for Mac) THANKS!

QUESTION: How do I sync iCal and Outlook up again without duplicating any more events, and very importantly, without sending any more email invitations?
I just bought an iPhone. I am trying to get my phone and my MacBook Pro synced up through iCloud.
I realize that I need to have Outlook 2011 and iCal set up for syncing for this to work.
I did this at one point, and it resulted in all of my ALL DAY appointments being duplicated in Outlook, iCal, and on the calendar on my phone - and iCloud sending out duplicate invitations to events.
Then, I turned syncing between iCal and Outlook and deleted all of the duplicates in my Outlook.
Of course, because I haven't set up Outlook to sync with iCal, iCal and my phone's calendar have not changed. There are still duplicates there.
How do I sync them up again without duplicating any more events, and very importantly, without sending any more email invitations?
Thanks in advance for any help you can be!
Cheers!

My iPhone 4 was working fine, synched with Outlook 2011 on my iMac 11.02 through iTunes. Calendar changes also appeared in iCal, even though I don't use iCal - I only use Outlook. Last week I was prompted to update Outlook, which I did successfully. Today, I plugged the iPhone into the iMac to synch and suddenly all Calendar and Contact items are gone from the iPhone and in iCal on the iMac. In iTunes, the option to synch with Outlook in the Info tab ("other") is greyed out. What happened? Why can't I synch the iPhone anymore with Outlook? All the Calendar and Contact info is still on the iMac in Outlook. Help!

Need help trying to have more than one delegate calendar display in iCal and on mobile devices

I have several calendars that are under my user name in Google. They all work as delegates and life is good.
I'm trying to set up the local school with a calendar for the sports schedule as well as a separate one for district events like school board meetings and would like to be able to add one for the holidays, exams and things of that nature. The sports calendar works but I can't figure out how to add the second caledar to iCal or my iPhone. It shows shared but doesn't appear as a possible delegate in iCal and will not load on the iPhone.
Google has the output to allow more than one calendar to display on a website but syncing at the level I want with the "i" apps isn't obvious.
Am I missing something? I really don't want one very cluttered master calendar for the school. Being able to turn on and off the various types of calendar will make it much easier to manage.

How do I stop receiving calendar invites on iCal/iCloud and use exchange 2013 calendar instead?

I Have an exchange 2013 email account which isn't registered as part of my iCloud account.
i Use my outlook calendar (exch) for work and the same exch calendar day to day from all my iOS devices.
when a colleague or outside email away from my company sends me a calendar meeting request, it works fine. (Using my exch email as the invite recipient).
my girlfriend sends me a meeting request from her hotmail account using the same exch email address for me, but he. Invites always arrive to my iCloud/iCal calendar instead! I can't seem to change it so I often miss diary notes or reminders unless I constantly look at both calendars.
i Just want to use exchange calendar and lose iCal (or if easier sync both iCal and exchange calendars vica versa - but that may be over complicating the issue, basically I just need one calendar and would rather it be my outlook exchange cal)
any ideas?

Hello again,
False alarm..... it didnt work sorry.
I removed the iCal accounts from my mac, and also from my iphone. Then when my partner sent me a calendar invite it simply didnt arrive at all!
She has a hotmail account installed on her IOS iphone 5.
She is sending the invite to my exch 2013 email address which is not associated with any icloud account.
My exch 2013 email is installed in both my Outlook for mac 2011 and IOS device Iphone 5s.
When I switch the iCloud Calendar back on in my iphone 5s, the invite comes through but ONLY optional to the icloud calendar. I cannot seem to get it receiving on my default calendar which is set to Exchange 2013 account.
Its very strange as its only her invites that do this. Anyone else's come through on my exchange calendar because its the same email address receeving it my end.

ICal and iPod - can't remove triplicate events in iPod's calendar - why?

I've got iTunes set to sync Address Book and iCal with my iPod 60G Video unit. In iCal, I have 2 calendars - School and Home and I've only have a few events on a few days accross several months. In my iPod Calendar, it displays both calendar folders correctly, but when I view "school", it shows events in triplicate and for every day; However, in iCal, it's as I want it.
I've tried deleting files from my iPod, deleting p.list prefs for iCal etc, backing up iCal to my documents folder and dragging that to my iPod -- none of which worked. I also opened the iPod version of my Calendar events and used it to update my iCal events and then disconnected the iPod. I removed the triplicate events from iCal and saved it to backup, then reconnected my iPod to update the "corrected" calendars via iTunes. But still, when I connect my iPod and boot iTunes, it updates with triplicate events of my school calendar. I've got my prefs in iTunes set to update both calendars (school and Home). What am I not doing? Any ideas?

I don't have an answer - but I'm having a similar problem: my entries are repeating everyday on my iPod even though they're only single day events in iCal

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer

I invited someone to share a calendar on ical and it didn't go through -

Hi.
I invited my business partner to share a calendar on ical and was successful. I then invited my husband, who has an older mac and older OS but my invitation didn't even get through to him. Does anyone have advice?
Thanks, Julie

If both have Apple devices AND both have data plans, why don't you message each other using iMessages instead of regular SMS?
iMessages get sent thru the TCP/IP Internet rather than the cellular network so they are essentially free (other than any data cap you may have, irrellevant if the iGadget is connecting via Wi-Fi).
