ICal and Outlook

It's great to be able to add appointments (events) to my iCal by emailing myself from Outlook, however, if I want to delete the event I can't! Is there anyway to edit an invite (either to change time/date or delete) that was sent to you?
Thanks in advance!

Not that I am aware of. If it is an invite then the person who did the inviting controls it.

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!

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?

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.

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
Powerbook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.5) PC/XP Pro

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.

Synching with ical and outlook?

Hi, just wondering if it's possible to synch my iphone 4 cal with my work (PC) MS outlook cal? I can send all my appointments to myself at home and then manually add them into ical & do it that way, but that seems clumsy.
Can I synch to two different systems?
Thanks

So if I don't have a mobile me account, the only way I can do it is to install iTunes on the PC, is that right?

Is there a way to turn off calendar notifications for ical and outlook when the program is not active?

Hi - i'm finding these to be a little bit annoying, anyone know how to do this? The Outlook ones bug me more than the iCal ones. Also, i'm wondering if that is hurting battery life to have that running the background.

I'd install Better Touch Tool (free). Add two gestures for Finder ONLY that have "No action" associated with them. This disbales pinch/zoom on the desktop AND in any Finder window, but not in any other application.
If you'd like to occasionally use pinch to zoom in the Finder (to zoom into a photo thumbnail for example), then add two more gestures, again for Finder ONLY - but this time also selecting one of the modifier keys (e.g. "Option" key). For these gestures set as "Use Apple Default or do nothing".
Together, this enables disabling of the zoom feature (to prevent accidental zooming of the desktop icons for example). But whenever you'd like to zoom into a document or photo etc in a Finder Window (which are also now disabled), you can now simply hold down "Option" key and the Pinch functions work again.
This solution works for me on 10.6.8

Synchronisation from iCal to Outlook 2011 for MAC

I am wondering when Apple will start supporting reminder/task synchronisation between iCal---iCloud---Office 2011 Mac. Even though new Office versions have been released Outlook 2011 will be around for some time and this would be something rather simple to create right?
The strange things is that it is supported for Outlook 2011 Windows.
So when I have dual boot I can see my Icloud reminders as tasks in Outlook but if I boot on Mac i can't see them in Outlook. How weird is that Apple...?
If Apple is not going to do anything about this, is there anything possible with a script perhaps that works between iCal and Outlook 2011 Mac? that would be a proper workaround at least.
Also curious actually as to why this functionality was not added.

INFORMATION on Emailchemy from another Forum
I’ve found a way in which you can import Apple Mail into Outlook 2011 on Mac OS X Lion.
The software I’m running is Mac OS X 10.7.2 on a 2011 MacBook Pro.
You need to purchase an app called Emailchemy. It’s 29.99 for an individual license, and 49.99 for a family license. There are enterprise versions available as well.
Once you run the app, you need to do the following:
1. Export all mailboxes from Apple Mail to your desktop (or any other suitable location on your computer). You do this by selecting the mailbox, and then clicking on “Mailbox”, and then “Export Mailbox”. Save the destination, and the file is saved automatically.
2. Then you open Emailchemy and do the following:
- click on “toolbox” in the bottom left hand corner
- click on the second box on the top left hand called “advanced email conversion”
- click on “add file”
- select the folder (s) you just exported from Apple Mail (e.g. Inbox.mbox)
Now here comes the trick
- select format “apple mail 1.0 in the format option at the bottom
- then 3 sub-folders will appear “info-p.list”, “mbox” and “table of contents”
Select “mbox”
- click on “convert” and choose a save file name. Choose the format “MBOX file (standard mbox)”
- click on save
And you then have a folder created which Outlook 2011 recognizes and can import.
I just imported all my Apple Mail into Outlook 2011 – it works really well too – the formatting, attachments, etc are all there!
Hope this helps.

Sync iCal to Outlook

My iCal and Outlook are not in sync. I can put events on Outlook and they move to my iCal. But I can't add to iCal and have it show up in Outlook. What do I need to do?

iCal is client like Outlook is client. Both can be used to get email from servers (POP3, IMAP, Exchange).
You may be able to export email form Outlook and import into iCal; or sync both Outlook and iCal with the same server (Exchange, Google, etc) - but you can't sync Outlook directly with iCal.

Outlook 2011 no longer syncing with iCal and contacts

I have installed Yosemite recently on my Macbook Pro. I run MS Outlook 2011 for professional reasons. Until now, syncing with my Android phone worked (almost) fine, using a nice app called SyncMate. For a few days now (not sure it is linked to installing Yosemite though) new data on my outlook calendar and address book no longer appear on my phone after syncing. After checking I realized that Outlook is actually not syncing any more with iCal and Contacts, so of course the syncing with the phone cannot work. How can I resolve this ?

facing the same problem, it was syncing prior to my upgrade to Lion. have you managed to find a solution?
