ICal import to a CalDav calendar created by Calaboration (for Google Cal)

I connected 6 of my calendars from Google Cal to iCal through CalDav with Calaboration. I wanted to take my existing iCal events and push them to the Google Cal calendars.
I tried exporting my existing iCal calendar as an ICS file, then importing it to the newly created Google Cal calendar. It worked for one calendar, and since then has just stuck on "Importing" whenever I try to import other calendars.
The CalDev calendars sync with Google Cal just fine, because I can create events on one end and they'll show up on the other. The problem is with importing. I've tried importing smaller files than the one that worked, and they just won't go.
Suggestions?

3.0.5 (1270)
Just to check I wasn't going mad, I just did this:
Opened GCal in Safari.
Created a new calendar: "Test Calendar"
Started Calaboration. Selected only the new calendar
Closed iCal when prompted
Opened iCal and after the (rather alarming) 'upgrading calendars' message I had GOOGLE:TEST CALENDAR with Test Calendar listed under it. (This can also be seen as a CalDAV account in preferences.)
Right-clicking on the calendar name, I get "Show CalDAV Queue" as the first item.
Are you using a different version of iCal? If not, perhaps you would be best advised to go into iCal Preferences, to delete the CalDAV account and start again?
Edit: Just noticed you are running the same version, but advice still stands.

ICal no longer displays caldav calendar but it's still there...

I find myself to have a strange problem... iCal no longer display a caldav calendar (which is my work exchange calendar via davmail app). But, it still appears to be there. In iTunes it is still listed in the calendars which can be synchronized with my iPhone. In fact, it is still synchronizing with my iPhone and up to date. If I add a new identical caldav calender in iCal, iCal only displays one calendar, as if there are no more, but in iTunes then two identical calendars are listed and on my iPhone all events are displayed double...
Any suggestion to get my calendar displayed in iCal again, or alternatively, how to remove the hidden agenda from the system so that I can resetup the calendar? By the way, I also have an MobileMe calendar running.
I look forward to receiving some hints as I am not yet able to solve this one.
Cheers!

Problem solved by myself Rebuild the calendar database by exporting the ical archive and then importing it. After that the hidden agenda was gone in Itunes. After a fresh set up of the caldav calendar in iCal it was back in iCal and iTunes. The mysterious ghost agenda is gone. Hope that this explanation may help someone else in the future.

ICal & Entourage Woes with CalDav calendars

Hello all.
I am having an issue with calendar events from Entourage. The issue is, when I am in iCal, viewing my entourage calendar, I cannot move entourage calendar events to my caldav calendar.
Theres a catch to this. The events I am trying to move are organized by someone else. If I duplicate that event, I can then move the event to a local calendar, but not to my caldav calendars.
Assume a few things here:
Create new entourage event, in entourage, and in iCal I can move that event anywhere.
Have full access to edit CalDav calendars set up on my machine.
If anyone has any insight how to fix this problem I would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks!

well I am officially considering these forums to be dead ends. Anyone have some tips on good forums for apple questions? A forum where people actually respond?
thanks,

Calendar creating random alerts for events

The last couple of weeks, iCloud Calendar and the Mac Calendar having been doing something very odd. I have my college courses laid out in my Calendar and syncing between my iPhone, Mac, and iPad. My default setting for this college calendar (and across my devices) was to alert me 15 minutes before each class started.
The last couple of weeks, however, the Calendar would alert me at my default time, but then it would alert me at the time the class was scheduled to start, and then at two random times after the class already started. The other two created alerts usually happened around 5-15 minutes after the event already started. After the second later time, the alerts would stop being created and stop appearing in my notifications. I was even able to watch these alerts being created, and if I deleted the new alert, I would have to delete it a second time before it actually disappeared. And this reminder went out across my 3 devices.
Here's what I have tried.
Changed my password on iCloud/Apple ID
I have removed the PList from Calendar app on my Mac, which changed nothing.
Repaired Permissions with Disk Utility and Onyx, also did nothing (though Disk Utility at one point did detect an error in Calendar which it said it fixed).
I went to iCloud.com and deleted the entire College calendar from the Calendar app and then manually re-added my classes. I noticed that on some the classes, it tried to create the random alerts immediately, but since I deleted those classes again and readded them and they stopped. This temporarily worked.
This last stepped worked for about a week before my college classes started doing this again. Since I applied the iCloud "fix", only some of my college classes have begun creating random alerts again, but only on my Mac and not on my iOS devices. Also, my birthdays imported from Facebook are now exhibiting this trait. No other calendars, such as my work or appointment calendars, are doing this though, and I have tested them by creating new events in said calendars. I don't want to stop using Calendar for something like this. Does anyone have any ideas?

Update: Now some of my other calendars are doing this too, like my work calendar, up to almost an hour after the actual event. I have no idea what's going on.

Creating Single App for Google Play store

Hi there,
I have a Single edition of DPS and I'm creating a single app for iPad.
Now, my client needs upload a single edition app for Android to GooglePlay store.
My question are:
1) I need upgrade my DPS account to Profesional?
2) Can I cancel the Profesional acount after 3 mounts if I pay monthly fee?
3) What happen if I cancel the account. The app will be unavailable in the Google Play store from that momment?
5) The profesional DPS Acount include only 500s folio downloads by year?
Thanks a lot!

Thank you for reply Himanshu Singh.
I understood that if I have uploaded a folio called "BEACH SEPTEMBER" will be available in Google Play for download, but I can't upload new folios ("MOUNTAIN JUNE") when I cancel my suscription?
How many folio downloads are available by year in DPS Pro?

I use iCal, my husband uses the calendar in gmail. Fro months no problems on invites and acceptances. Now if he invites me I am no longer offered an acceptance and it is not visible on my calendar unless I link his gmail calendar which I do not wish to do

I use iCal, my husband uses the calendar in gmail. For months we had no problems. Recently, he will send me invites and I no longer have the ability to accept or decline. The only way to see the event is if I link is gmail calendar which I do not wish to do. Any solutions?

I've been using iCloud since it's inception as "mac.com" or whatever it was called. I've been able to Sync Outlook Exchange Calenars to my iMac, iPhone and iPad. However, I cannot get iCal (when viewed in iCloud) to display Exchange or Google Calender items.
It's odd, all other Mac versions of iCal are happy e.g. iMac, MacBook Air, iPad Air, iPhone etc. But nothing when I login to icloud.com and look at the iCal there.

ICal on Mavericks is unable to delete events on my CalDav calendar

Dear Apple Support Community,
if somebody else experience the same problem: iCal that comes with Mavericks is unable to delete event on a shared CalDav-based calendar (creating a new and editing works). Any help appreciated.
Regards

Hi joelee42,
If you are having issues with your iPhone's Calendar application becoming unresponsive or quitting when your attemp to delete an event, you may want to try some things to troubleshoot.
First, quit all running applications and test again -
Force an app to close in iOS
Next, I would try restarting and if needed resetting the iPhone -
Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
If the issue is still present, you may want to restore the iPhone as a new device -

Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

What determines if an iCal event on CalDAV calendar is editable?

We are using iCal3 to link to a CalDAV calendar store. This allows us to also access the calendar store from other things - such as web based calendar interface and other CalDAV aware calendars.
We've found that events created or edited in other applications / via the web are not always editable when viewed in iCal3. Rather than seeing the 'edit' and 'done' buttons on the Get Info screen, they just show 'Done'. The event remains editable in the other applications / via the web.
Presumably the event is missing some XML tag to say that it can be edited. Any idea what it is? Any idea what can be done to tell iCal to edit these events? Right now all it is doing is encouraging us to use the other applications for our Calendar access in preference to iCal...
Thanks in advance for any insights etc.

Surprise Surprise!
I realized after heavy testing, that a DTSTAMP: is not needed.
But there is apparently a problem with the DATE-TIME format: Perhaps for other readers, which are in such a desparate situation, as I am since two days now!!! here some explanations:
The reference about iCal format you find in RFC 5546
DTSTART; and DTEND; have a time string like follows:
yyyymmddThhmmss
In the middle the big letter "T". But you have to add the time zone: for me it is the following:
DTSTART;TZID=Europe/Berlin:20120608T062500
Now the big surprise: this time format with an hour over 12 ooops! I tested now once again like follows
DTEND;TZID=Europe/Berlin:20120608T212500
DTSTART;TZID=Europe/Berlin:20120608T202500
changing the hh (hours) with one hour difference up until here. 10 Minutes again, iCal was freezing with hours over 19. I swear!
Ok to answer my original question: What is the minimal format of an iCal event, which you may attach to an email:
BEGIN:VCALENDAR
BEGIN:VEVENT
DTEND;TZID=Europe/Berlin:20120608T212500
SUMMARY:Name
DTSTART;TZID=Europe/Berlin:20120608T202500
LOCATION:MUC
SEQUENCE:0
BEGIN:VALARM
TRIGGER:-PT1H
DESCRIPTION:Event reminder
ACTION:DISPLAY
END:VALARM
END:VEVENT
END:VCALENDAR
But be aware, that this is buggy. Be carefull and have a nice evening

Force CalDAV calendar in iCal to send meeting invites via Mail

A handful of people are experiencing issues sending out meeting invite emails via a Google Apps (CalDAV) calendar that is setup in iCal. Meetings are showing up on invitees calendars, but they are not receiving email notifications about them.
Thread on that topic here: http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Calendar/thread?tid=368ec40a6bdd7bb8&hl=en
and here: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2707217&tstart=0
*So, my question is this*: Is there a way to force Mail.app to send out a meeting invitation of a CalDAV calendar that is setup in iCal, instead of using whatever system the CalDAV calendar uses (in my specific case, Google Apps). My assumption is that iCal uses the Mail.applescript or Mail.scpt file that is inside the iCal package (iCal > Show Package Contents > Resources > Mail.applescript) when sending out an invite from a local calendar. Any way to force a CalDAV calendar to use that script?

I had that problem too.
I changed my mail preferences "Add invitations to iCal" from Automatically to Never and that seems to work for me.
Hope that helps

HT2513 Had to import Birthdays from yahoo calendar. Is there any way to move them to the iCal Birthdays calendar without manually inputing them each into Address Book?

I used to use Yahoo Calendar to manage my birthdays and notifications of them. Yahoo screwed with something, so now I no longer get birthday notification texts to my cell. Now, I've imported my Yahoo Calendar dates in to iCal. iCal has a Birthdays "subscription" calendar which only shows birthdays entered into the Address Book. I do not have any birthdays entered into Address Book. Is there any way to select birthday entries from my other calendars and move them to the birthdays tab, or must I manually enter over 200 birthdays into Address Book?
While I'm here, is there any way to highlight specific calendar entries and move them to a "new calendar"?
THanks in advance for any and all help.

looks like this is not yet an option via yahoo/sbc

ICal availability panel message "This Calendar does not support availability". Synch is OK with CalDAV. Don't know why - only since installing Yosemite

My iCal is synching OK withe the CalDAV calendar it is linked to, but when I try and check availability of others to schedule an appointment, it says "This Calendar does not support availability" I've only started getting this since upgrading to Yosemite

I have the exact same issue, I am working with apple support now, and they had me reinstall OS from recovery. Still no success...

Cannot accept Calendar Invitations in ical Caldav calendar

Hi,
I have a SL server with Ical2 server. In my client I set up the caldav calendar (not subscribe). When I get a mail with invitation, and I click twice the invite doesn't appear in my caldav calendar, but if I drag it, It works good, but I cannot accept, decline the invitation. When I press accept It doesn't send any respones to the sender. What is the problem?
thx

I have this issue too. It seems that this may be a limitation of iCal or iCal Server

ICal events importing incorrectly in iPhoto Calendar Project

I am trying to import my calendars from iCal into my Calendar project in iPhoto 11. There seems to be at least two problems with this feature:
1) If a national holiday (USA) occurs on the same date as one of my events, my event will be removed from the calendar in iPhoto. For example Washington's Birthday shows up on February 22, 2011 which happens to be the same day as my Aunt's birthday. If I have the national holidays turned on my Aunt's birthday is removed. If I turn off the national holidays my Aunt's birthday shows up again.
2) Some of my events are showing up on the wrong day. For example my niece's birthday is on the 13th of March. This happens to be the same day as when Daylight Savings Time Begins. If holidays are turned on my niece's birthday shows up on the 14th of March. If I have holidays turned off my niece's birthday shows up on both the 13th and the 14th of March.
I remember having issue two happen to me in iPhoto09 as well. I have re-imported my dates now several times. I have quit both the iCal and iPhoto applications as well. I have even tried restarting my mac with no success. Does anyone know how to fix this or know if there is a software update coming out soon to fix this issue?
