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!

How to load iCal and Outlook events?

i'm trying to provide ical and outlook files for guests to an
event. i've linked both an .ics file (for iCal users) and a .vcs
file (for Outlook) from the website, yet when a user clicks on
either link, code is displayed onscreen as opposed to a prompt to
download the file. is there a way to launch these links as file
downloads w/o having to zip them? numerous calendar and invitation
sites provide this feature, but they are dynamically creating the
.ics and .vcs files - though they do end up as downloaded files.
(www.cindyandkenny.com/test > click 'when & where' to
see the iCal and Outlook links)
thanks.

Harbs - you there?
I can;t find any help for this elsewhere on the web - would really apprciate a response.

Sync iCal and Outlook calendars?

I use a Mac at home and on the road, but have to use a Win-XP at work. Is there a way to keep both sets of calendars on my iPod (iCal and Outlook)?

Ok... so in that case, what is keeping track of changes to the files on the flashcard? When you plug it into the Mac after using it on the PC, what decides which files are newer and which files to move from the flashcard to the Mac, and which files to move from the Mac to the flashcard? What decides what to do when there is newer data on both?
I suspect you are not actually syncing, but simply manually copying the data each time using the flashcard as the transport medium.
No, I have two sync programs, one on the Mac, one on the PC, they sync their files to the flashcard.

Have you tried configuring iTunes on both your home Mac and work PC to sync calendars to your iPod touch? If so, does it work or is data overwritten?
That was my question, can it be done? I'm guessing, from what you are saying here, that iTunes should be able to handle it? I don't have iTunes on the PC, so I haven't tried it. Is the functionality the same as on the Mac?

IPod as a conduit to sync iCal and Outlook 2003 with each other?

I am able to synchronize my work Outlook 2003 calendar and home Mac iCal with the iPod in two separate files on the iPod. I can see them both if I select "All". My questions are:
1. What should I do to sync the PC and the Mac with the same file on the iPod?
2. Is it possible to snychronize the iCal and Outlook with each other via the iPod?
Thanks,
Iris

If you mount your iPod on your Mac, navgate to the iPod Calendars folder and double-click on an ics file it will import the calendar into iCal. So you can sync from the PC to the iPod to iCal uni-directionally. If Outlook 2003 can import an ics file then you should be able to sync the other way as well. However, in both cases you will essentially be copying over one calendar with another, not really synchronizing.

Can iCal and Outlook share calendars with each other?

Can you iCal and Outlook share calendars with each other?

Because Apple has chosen to not make this a feature of iOS devices.

Syncing across iPhone, Google Cal, iCal, and Outlook

My personal computer is a Macbook 13" from 2007, running Leopard version 10.5.8
At work, I use a Dell using XP (for now- upgrading to Windows 7 in a couple weeks) and keep my schedule through Outlook.
I want to sync my Outlook, home iCal, and iPhone's iCal all together, each calendar displaying identical information. I want to be able to update and edit my calendar at work, at home, or on the go.
How can I accomplish this?
Thank you,
Kevin

Hmm, I think the reason it works for me is because I went the other way around. I subscribed to my Google calendar from iCal a long time ago, but not my iPhone. When OS 3.0 came out, the Google calendar in iCal got synced into my iPhone as a subscription automatically.
So, you'll likely need to subscribe to your Google calendar within iCal to have it in iCal, and there are very specific instructions how to do that on Google's Calendar support pages.
Once you do that and sync your iPhone, I'm guessing you might end up with a duplicate because of the subscription you've already created on your iPhone. I'm not sure it'll matter which one you delete, but I mention this possibility because I haven't tested out all the possibilities yet.

How to link iCal with Outlook for Mac 2011?

Hello Apple people.
Just got my MacBook Pro (Late 2011) and am trying to enable Outlook to link with iCal so I can get meeting alerts on my iPhone 4. I prefer using Outlook for email and calendar usage. I've linked it with iCal, but can't get information to transfer between the two. Any thoughts?

Greetings,
Before doing any troubleshooting I would recommend backing up your data (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1553). Calendars and contacts tend to be important to people and are complex in nature which increases the chances of mishaps.
Make sure you have installed all software updates from Apple by going to Apple > Software Update.
Make sure you have installed all software updates for your Microsoft software (Open Outlook and then go to Help > Check for Updates).
Restart your computer (Apple Menu > Restart).
The first thing I would suggest is following all steps in this article: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2452489.
Once this is complete you should see the calendars you have added to Outlook when you click the "Calendars" button in iCal under the "On My Mac" section.
If the calendars do not show up reset Sync Services: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1627.
Hope that helps.

Sync iCal with Outlook for Mac 2011

I am currently running IOS 10.6.8.

I have outlook set up correctly in the preferences to sync all calendars but this does not appear to happen.

Maybe this will help. Older post.

No Sync with Imac and Outlook for mac 2011

Hello,
just bought a new bb torch, but it does not synchronise with outloop (office for mac 2011).
no contacts, no agenda.
I can not choose which agenda/contacts.
It looks like the Torch goes to the standard email progam of Imac and not to Outlook.
The only contacts are the standard contacts from addressbook imac.
thanks in advance,
rob

I have just discovered the same thing - if you do a search around the topic you will find it confirmed that the only thing that will sync with Outlook for Mac is contacts.
I've just moved everything over from a PC to a Mac and so to find it not working is so frustrating.
SORT IT OUT RIM - or at least assure us you're working on it.

ICal and Office for Mac 2011 Sync Difficulties

I am having the continuing problem with calendar items syncing between my devices and my work calendar.
I start by listing the devices: iPad (1st version), iPhone 4 (not the Siri model), Macbook Pro, and syncing with a PC at the office.
Software involved: Updated mobile software for iPad and iPhone, Max OS X (version 10.7.2), iCal, Office 2011 for Mac and on the work PC Office 2011 with exchange.
Mail/Calendar Settings: work email (1) set up as an IMAP; work e-mail (2) set up as an exchange account (the work emails are different accounts not the same account configured differently, and (3) iCloud. The work e-mails are set up as shared accounts in Office 2011 for Mac and in iCal are shown for the correct settings via e-mail address for updating.
Problem: I make an appointment on my MacBook through iCal then expect it to go to Office 2011 on my Macbook and then update via exchange to the PC at office. Original problem was the dates would be incorrect, or the time would be incorrect (it would be off a day or a copule of hours), or it would keep the date and time correct but change the event title back to NEW EVENT as opposed to the event detail originally put in. I thought all of this would miraculously sync through iCloud but that has not happened (yes I checked to see if all the items were set up to iCloud on all devices). Failing to trust iCloud I attempted to simply sync through iTunes (both hard wired and wirelessly). I can most of the time get it from my Macbook to my devices (not counting the work PC) and from the devices to the Macbook, but now it will not update to the work PC once I get it into Office 2011 for Mac in order to exchange. It shows up on my calendar but not on the office PC, which in some instances will erase the data from the Macbook on exchange and not be anywhere.
I reviewed the settings and there must be something I am missing, but I am stuck. I have been fooling with it so long I think I have a myoptic view and cannot think of where to try next.
Desired Solution: I want to be able to make an appointment on any of my devices to include the Macbook and have them sync across all devices including exchanged with the office PC so I always have my calendar, my office has my calendar and all of them are up to date. Any suggestions would be welcomed.

Pages and Numbers are part of Apple's iWorks suite and not Microsoft's Office Suite. If you paid for Pages and Numbers then you can redownload them from your purchases in the App Store. You can also reinstall Microsoft Office 2011 and reactivate with you serial number you received upon purchase.

Outlook Multiday/Recurring meetings move to the next day on iPhone/iPad and Outlook for MAC.

Exchange 2010 environment. Outlook 2007 and 2010 on Windows desktops. Multiple day appointments or recurring meetings in Outlook do not appear on the iPhone, iPad or Outlook for MAC with the same date. They are all moved forward to the next day. Single day or non-recurring meetings are synced correctly. Not finding much on this. All users affected with these devices.

i have the exact same situation... called Apple Care and they were no help without the $29 incident plan... hoping for a solution before i go that route
