ICal Google Calendar Subscription not displaying

Hi guys,
I've recently added two different google calendars by creating subscriptions. Both calendars appeared to be added correctly as all of the calendar description is correct and they appear under the subscriptions bar. I can only view them on my iphone via mobile me.
My problem is this: I can see one of the calendars just fine, but the other one isn't visible to me despite all of the information being present in the calendar information tab. Do you have any ideas why this calendar isn't visible? When I make it a delegate calendar it is visible, but neither of the calendars I added is my principle google calendar. I would much rather have a calendar as a subscription tied into mobile me rather than a delegate calendar. Thanks!

i seem to have the same problem, can you tell me where you set those default settings? in ical ? or google calendar? thanks for help ....

Google calendar subscription not visible in iCal

Hi folks, I'm trying to subscribe to a shared Google Calendar through the ICAL (.ics) protocol.
Although iCal seems happy enough with the URL I provided it and shows a calendar under "Subscriptions", none of the shared events is showing up in iCal. I don't mean that event details are not showing up, I mean nothing is showing up, not even free/busy blocks.
I downloaded the .ics file from the URL and viewed it in a text editor, and it appears to contain all the information, with the start/end dates and times, etc. It's just not showing up in iCal's calendar views.
Any clues?

ICal/Google Calendar no longer sync since April 23 2011

In the last week of April iCal/Google calendar sync has quit working. When trying to sync the iCal and the Google. The message I get is that "iCal found the CalDAV server 'www.google.com', but couldn't log in with the user name "XXXXXX". Make sure the user name and password you entered are correct, then try again. I originally noticed the bouncing iCal icon about April 23-24 and at the time it said that the account [email protected] could not update. I re-entered the information for the account and it still ddid not update. I deleted the account on iCal hoping that a re-enter of all the information would get things up and running and it has not.
I have looked over the available responses to similar problems and none of them have made any difference.
Please always include:
Mac OS X 10.6.7
Program and version you use to access Google Calendar (e.g. Internet Explorer 7 or Outlook 2003): Safari 5.0.5 (6533.21.1) and Google Chrome 11.0.696.57 and iCal Version 4.0.4 (1395.7)
I also cannot set up the account on the iPad (I was hoping to do so as a work around). Interestingly enough, my wife who subscribes to my Google Calendar as a delegate still gets the updates and things are working for her on her iMac using iCal.

There is a big discussion on this topic on the google calendar forum: http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Calendar/thread?tid=7f08411ae09ca8da&hl=en
As I wrote there:
I'm suffering the same, but I have some more information about it. I have multiple delegates, so I have had the "good fortune" to be able to have some of them go bad and still have others to experiment with.
The ones that have gone bad are those where I made a change in iCal and then tried to refresh.
When I made changes on my google calendars I was still able to refresh in iCal and have the change show up. But as soon as I made a change in iCal, the refresh gave that error message.
Also, I just downloaded the newest OS (OS 5) for my iPod touch (gen. 3). That was yesterday afternoon.. and yesterday evening is when I first noticed this problem. I can't imagine it's simply coincidence.
I just discovered one more thing. Even the calendars that don't work both ways continue to work one way; changes made on Google Calendar continue to show up in iCal, even though the error message shows up that it can't contact the server or has the wrong address. It's almost like the relationship has turned into "subscriptions" rather than "delegates".
I have restarted my iMac and repaired permissions with no success.

ICal - google calendar no SMS or Message with sound

Hello,
few weeks ago I found that I could not add "Message with sound" alert to my iCal's Google calendar which brings me to no SMS alerts.
Is it anything wrong with my iCal, Google calendars (I can add Message with sound to iCloud calendars) or it is something Apple/Google recently changed?
If I add Message with sound alert using iCal - it automatically disappears. However, if I add SMS alert on Google side I have SMS alerts even if it does not reflect anyhow on the corresponding iCal entry.

ICal & Google calendar

Hello,
I read on this discussion about people trying to get ical & google calendars subscribing to each other. I tried what was suggested.
In ical I copied and pasted the address in the subscribe box. The address I wanted starts with "https." Ical responds with it doesn't recognize addresses that start with "https." Why not? Does anyone know why? Is there a way around this?
Thanks!

Update:
I think I've got a solution I can live with for getting my Toodledo tasks into my iCal calendar. First of all, I turned on Toodledo calendar subscription and subscribed to the event calendar (Tasks with a date) in iCal.
It's a one-way sync from Toodledo to iCal, but if you want to move the events over to a local calendar in iCal you can shuffle them around. The iCal events keep the url of the task, so you can easily jump to the task in Toodledo to mark it complete or change details. If you create a local calendar, you can copy the event from the Toodledo subscript calendar, highlight the local calendar, right click back on the calendar and select paste. Also, you can use the following Applecript to copy over the events from the Toodledo iCal calendar to your local iCal calendar:
iCal: Duplicate/Move items between calendars
http://hints.macworld.com/article.php?story=20110110144312255
Each time you run the duplicate/move script you build up duplicate items in your local calendar, but you can run this script to cut out the dupes:
http://hints.macworld.com/article.php?story=20051217000214536&lsrc=osxh
or http://www.nhoj.co.uk/icaldupedeleter
If you turn on the script menu (in Applescript Editor settings), and drop these in User/Library/Scripts/Applications/iCal (create if needed), they are accessible from iCal with a click of the mouse. Also, you can edit the scripts to go directly to the "Toodledo iCal" and "Local Toodledo" calendars so the scripts won't prompt you each time.
Good luck & post back with an update if you get it working how you like it!
Cheers

Issues: new events show from google calendar but not the other way round

Hi,
I've just followed the instructions to the letter on these pages: http://support.google.com/mobile/bin/answer.py?hl=en&topic=14252&answer=138740
& http://support.google.com/mobile/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=139206 and looked at the known issues page, but I am still stuck.
Entries in my Google Calendar have now synced in iOS Calendar (and weekcal which I use instead of iOS Cal) - however, none of my existing entries in my iOS Cal have synced with Google Cal.
Here are the issues:
A recurring event created by someone else and me invited showed in iOS when I set this up
None of my events from iOS show in Google Calendar
New events I create in Google Calendar do not show in iOS
New events I create in iOS don't show in Google Calendar
To test, I deleted the recurring event which was the only one showing on iOS - immediately it was also deleted on iOS which indicates it is set-up to sync betweeb Google and iOS
Cannot find any information on help pages about this.

I'm not sure what else to suggest. As the Nokia 5800 is not natively supported by iSync you must be using an iSync Plugin, so I'd advise contacting the author of the plugin - it may be buggy and need fixing.

Google calendar is not showing in the list of calendars in the iOS Calender app

I'm following this link to sync Google calendar with my iOS Calendar app on my iPhone 5:
http://support.google.com/a/users/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=138740
It sets up alright and I can see it in the list of calendars in the settings but nothing is sync'ed in the Calendar app itself. Also while in the Calendar app I click Calendars in the top left corner, and this Google calendar is not even in there and I don't know why (since it is in the settings -> mail, contacts, calendars -> accounts.) Very frustrating!

You need an AirPrint compatible printer to be able to print directly from iOS devices, but unfortunately, your Canon ip2000 is not on the list of compatible devices. See this Apple support document for more details:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4356
A possible workaround that might work is to try an App like Print Central on the iPad and iPhone. This will allow the iOS devices to print to most printers. But, there is no way to guarantee that it will work with your printer.

Strange errors with iCal - Google calendar syncing.

I use iCal and have it sync to my Google calendar. Recently, when creating a new event, the default alert has been coming up as a random number of minutes (eg. 1540, 1100) before the event. It used to just default to 15mins before the event and you could change the alert easily to something else. Now, when I try to change this strange large number it reverts back to how it started as soon as iCal syncs with google.
This is strange and really annoying. Any ideas?

If I hadn't been using iCal/Google Calendar for over 18 months, with reminders from both systems playing nicely over that period, I'd happily agree with you. The issue with Reminders only began (for me, at least) in February this year. I agree that there's potential for conflict, and maybe both sets of developers finally threw in the towel. This is a pity, because I like both systems, but I feel slightly irritated at being effectively told by Google or Apple that I have to choose sides.

Some Google calendar entries not showing up on phone

On a couple of occaisions, I've had a whole day of Google Calendar entries not show up on my Palm Pre. Today, just this mornings entries showed up, but the two entries I have for this afternoon don't show up on my phone. I've tried syncing manually a couple of times. I've tried syncing over EVDO/Data only (turned off wireless). I've tried deleting an entry, re-adding it, and re-syncing and no joy.
What now?
UPDATE: So, once I got home I looked into changing to syncing via EAS. I didn't like some of the 'features' of that route, so I went nuclear. I deleted the gmail account from the Calendar application and re-added it. After syncing completed, I found my missing entries... So, anyone got any ideas of additional data to collect?

Deleting my gmail account and re-adding it does not clear up the problem, it hides the symptoms. What if it didn't work, do I reinstall the OS? I've had two occurences of this--none of last Friday's calender entries were in my calendar and yesterday afternoon's entries were missing. There is a root cause and it needs to be found and sorted.
I missed a meeting yesterday because my phone did not sync up with my Google calendar. This is a fundamental feature of of the Palm WebOS smartphones. Calendar syncing is a fundamental feature of all smartphones and a smartphone that doesn't do this is no longer smart.
Are there other people who have seen this symptom? Is there something I can do to _help_ gather data for the Synergy team to find the root cause?

Iframe for a google spreadsheet does not display

I just noticed that in FF 22 on a Win 7 64 bit machine iframes that refer to google spreadsheets do not display. I have turned of hardware accel in FF to no avail. The site functions properly on Chrome, Opera, and even IE. Some users have reported that it works on Win XP 32 bit.
This used to all work seemlessly and I don't know when or how this has failed .. maybe a month ago? This is tested on multiple PCs BTW. I have tried safe mode (no plugins) too.

How do I add Google calendar subscriptions to iPad iCal?

I was able to add my Google calendar account to iCal on iPad but my calendar subscriptions (delegated) from other users is not displayed. I know there is a wizard to add a subscribed calendar but I don't know how to fill it out:
Settings> Add Account> Other> Add Subscribed Calendar > Server "myserver.com/cal.ics". Where do I get the information to plug between the quotes?
Thanks.

ab1268,
I'm trying to do this very thing. I have multiple google calendars set up (one for each kid, my husband etc.). I want to move to iCal exclusively. Based on your note above, should I export each individual calendar within ical. Remove each from the iCal account and then reimport then into ical? I suppose the risk is low b/c the data still exists in google.
Please advise - I would hate to misstep. Very new to the apple world (aside from iphone / ipad).
Thanks!

Google Calendar alarms not working in iCal when synced via delegation

If I set up syncing to my shared Google calendars using Google's Calaboration app, I get a half dozen or more "Request Error, Calendar could not be found" messages a day along with the annoying bouncing iCal icon in the dock.
If I set up syncing via the delegation method — as per Google's general syncing instructions (http://www.google.com/support/calendar/bin/answer.py?answer=99358#ical) as well as this Google Calendar forums thread (http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Calendar/thread?tid=210c119ea4d2d37e&hl=en) — iCal fails to display event alarms (i.e., the pop-up alert window).
I need the alarms, so the only thing I can think to do is to tell iCal to sync with gCal less frequently.

Hi Guys,
Having something similar here with Google and ical, seems to be related to when using Google Enterprise Apps for me and a third party provider is in use. In this case a SAML provider. It allows me to get to a login page and asks me which Apps I would like to allow to access my Google Calendar. Once I have made my selections and hit ok it then gives me a pop up message saying that authentication has failed. This is strange as I have had to authenticate with Google to be able to access the application sync in the first place.
