ICal not syncing to computer...

I'm new to my iPod touch (4th gen). I'm guessing I have a setting off....when I add an event to iCal on my iPod touch and then later hook up (usb) my iPod to my iMac, it will not sync the events I added on the ipod. I checked my .me account and the new events are showing up there..
I've checked the manual it is simply states that Future events are always synced. Can I have them sync to me.com AND my computer?
Karen

plugged ipod in, opened itunes, went to info, "sync iCal" was already checked. Synced. Did not update my iMac iCal....any other ideas? This is frustrating me....Thanks in advance...kw

ICal not syncing from computer to iPhone

When my wife enters events in her Mac iCal they don't show up on her iPhone. When she enters in her iPhone events in the calendar show up on her computer. Both computer and phone r set to sync to iCloud. Any ideas? Thanks

You are still under Snow Leopard, and basically iCloud is not supported.
Are we talking about iCloud calendar, or Gmail calendar ?
In any case, I would advice you 2 things :
1 - update to 10.6.8
2 - check iCal parameters for SN http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-13727_7-57511534-263/how-to-set-up-icloud-services- in-snow-leopard/

ICal not syncing w/ mobileme

iCal has stopped syncing with Mobileme. When I try to sync I get the error message "Calendars could not be synced due to inconsistent data. Confirm that your computer's data is valid, then reset Calendars on MobileMe in System Preferences." I have unchecked Calendars in Syst Prefs, synced, rechecked, and synced and it does not work. How can I resolve this and sync it?

I am having the same problem with iCal not syncing. I have 3 Macs (iMac, Macbook, and G5 Tower) that are all normally synced using MobileMe and 2 iPhones that sync as well, but the computers just stopped syncing the other day. It seems to be an Apple problem but I don't know how to remedy it. I've tried what has worked for some other folks here where you changed the sync to the computer from the mobile me in sys prefs but once the main computer that holds the calendar has a change it messes up the others again. It's becoming very frustrating and I can't seem to get to the proper link on the support pages to get an Apple tech to help. I noticed on the Mobile Me page it says that they did an update the other day that could affect peoples syncing but it says it's now resolved. Not for me, anyone has any thoughts I'd sure appreciate it.

Events on ical not sync to iphone

events on ical not sync to iphone

Hey mikefromstratford,
I'd read through the following article about iCal to double check the syncing process. There are two main ways to sync your iCal events onto your iPhone, so depending on which one you use you'll want to check out either the "Set up your iCloud calendar account for use with iCal" or "Sync your calendars with iPhone, iPod, or iPad" sections:
Mac Basics: iCal (OS X Lion and earlier)

Phone Pass Code locked and will not sync with computer. Back up and restore with itunes

Bummer because now you can not back up. But you can put the device in recovery mode and have itunes restore it. Turn the device off while the device is off hold down the home button while holding the home button down connect the cable to the phone and keep holding home button until you see itunes logo and cable image on the on the phone. Itunes will say its discovered a device in recovery mode click ok and click restore.

Ical not syncing to google calendar

Hi everyone. I can't seem to find a solution to my iCal and Google calendar problem. Here is my information:
MacBook Pro - version 10.6.8
iCal - 4.04
I have all of my Google calendars set up in iCal. When I enter any events from within Google Calendar on the web, it then syncs flawlessly to my iCal...delegates included.
However, when I make a change in iCal itself on my computer, I get this error: The calendar https://www.google.com/calendar/dav/[email protected]/user//www.google.com/calendar/dav/[email protected]/user was not found on the server. Make sure the URL is correct.
I removed the / that gets inserted at the end of the above address like some have suggested but iCal keeps putting it back in there. I am also noticing that I don't have this problem when I enter events from iCal on my iPhone or iPad. It only happens on my MacBook Pro.
Please help!!!!!!!

According to Google: "Setting up iCloud sync has caused events to be wiped from Google Calendar for some of our users who were syncing information between iCal and Google Calendar. In response, we've stopped deleting the information until this issue is fixed. Until further notice, deleting any event in iCal will not remove this event from Google Calendar (for iCal 4 users, all changes made after a delete attempt will not be saved in Google Calendar). We've contacted Apple and we are actively working on this. We're also attempting to restore the deleted events. Thanks for bringing this to our attention, we'll keep you posted. As a workaround, we suggest you remove event in the Web version of Google Calendar (calendar.google.com). This change would be properly synced with your iCal."

ICal not syncing with iPhone and MobileMe, tasks

I have iPhone, MobileMe, and iCal on my Mac.
I have no problems sending calendar events between iPhone and MobileMe, and Address Book in my computer.
I have a problem with iCal- it just doesn't sync with anything, even though MobileMe is set for it.
I called apple customer service, they told me I have this problem because I had MobileMe as a trial, but it still is a problem, after I purchased year subscription.
Also I don't know how do tasks, or to-do list work. There is a basic list on iCal- that one also does not sync.
thanks

appreciate the responses... and jumping in here with possibly a similar problem
iCal issue - Where are they hiding?
Posting here as this is the closest I can find to my issue..
Two, maybe more, Birthday Events appear on my iPhone but not on/in iCal on my macbook.
Tried clearing the iphone and resyncing. Same condition.
Tried removing the cache from iCal and resyncing using the replace calendar option in iTunes. Still no good. Have checked the the full listing of all events on iCal.
Where can these two events be hiding ? Not a huge deal, but now really curious.
Any help will be appreciated, thanks.

Entourage and iCal not syncing with iPhone

I have been having a problem lately. I get many calendar entries over email from my parents and I get them on my phone with only the name of it as the subject of the email and I can't approve it over my phone. One of my questions is am I able to approve or deny them over my phone and then sync it to my computer? Also my MobileMe free trial expired and I don't want to purchase a real trial. My calendar entries will not sync to my phone for some reason. I have iCal and Entourage synced but it won't go onto my phone. And when I plug my phone into my computer to sync, it only says my calendar can be synced with MoblieMe and won't give me an option to change it. (Extra info: I have a second generation iPhone)
Thank you so much and I hope people are able to help me.
Cheers.

So I got on the phone with APP today and it turns out iCal was pretty messed up.
A bunch of the files for iCal were missing (com.apple.iCal.plist) and such.
Simple solution in the end:
Completely delete iCal (delete the icon from your applications folder) and reinstall iCal using your latest operating system disk (in my case, the OS X 10.5 disk). All my calendars, etc, where happily there after I reinstalled iCal.

Ical not syncing with Mac.

I can't seem to get my ical to sync between my iphone and Mac. I would like to use the restore however, whilst my itunes tells me it backs up to the computer I cannot locate the information. I do not wish to use icloud

Hi Tayfit -
I searched this question and found a solution that worked for me on another forum here. I use OS 10.6.8 on an iMac with Intel Core, and an iPhone 4. I do not wish to use iCloud for syncing either. I had many duplication problems when I attempted to use iCloud, in contacts and in ical, so I deleted for days and dropped the iCloud. My iPhone does seem to sync with iCal on the iMac, but the iMac calendars didn't all sync with the iPhone. I use iTunes to sync. Here is what I did:
In the folder /users/<---YOUR USERNAME--->/Library/Calendars, I deleted "Calendar Cache" and "Calendar Sync Changes" ....
That's all I did. I had tried the terminal reset option listed in the Apple Support questions, but that was to address the screw up post iCloud use, and that didn't fix my issue.
Best of luck. I hope this helps you.

Added calendar in iCal not synced to MobileMe

I moved a calendar from "On My Mac" to my MobileMe account group, using the export-import method. The new calendar, however, does not sync to MobileMe. I even tried an overwrite (bookmarks, calendars, contacts and keychains) from my Mac to MobileMe but the added calendar still did not appear in MobileMe.
I quit and relaunched iCal, which started an immediate sync. The new calendar promptly disappeared from iCal and I got a string of error messages (one for each entry in the new calendar, it seems) all ending with
The server responded with
“HTTP/1.1 409 Conflict”
and asking me to either "Go Offline" or "Revert to Server". It didn't seem to matter which one I selected – the error just kept cropping up. Eventually, I gave up and force quit iCal.
How can I add a new calendar to iCal that will sync with MobileMe?

Derek,
I presume that this procedure represents exactly what you have tried to accomplish?
Import an iCal calendar or event
If you use iCal and want to add your iCal calendars and events to a MobileMe calendar, you can import them.
Hide
To import an iCal calendar:
Open iCal, and then select the iCal calendar you want to import into your MobileMe calendar.
Choose File > Export > Export.
Type a calendar name, choose a location from the Where pop-up menu, and click OK.You can store the exported file anywhere, and you can delete it after you finish importing it.
Choose File > New Calendar, and then choose a MobileMe calendar (by default, your MobileMe email address).
Type a calendar name (you can use the same name as the calendar you just exported), and press Return.
Choose File > Import > Import, select your exported iCal calendar, and then click Import.
Select the destination MobileMe calendar to which you want to add the imported iCal calendar, and then click OK.
Quit iCal and go to the Macintosh HD/Users/yourusername/Library/Calendars Folder and delete any/all files with "Cache" as a part of the name. Log out/in or restart and reattempt using the exact procedure which I copied from the MobileMe Help page.

ICal not syncing with MobileMe

I know there have been other posts on this, but I have tried them all and cannot figure this out. MobileMe is syncing with my iPhone 4 (iOS 4.2) but it is not syncing with my MacBook under my current user profile. I created a new profile as a test and it synced with no issues. I have tired signing out and back into my MobileMe account, deleting the calendar cache, deleting the calendar folder, reinstalling ical, etc. I cannot figure this out and I am feeling my only option left is to upgrade to Snow Leopard. Any help on this?

For whatever reason, iCal has suddenly "come back to life for me." I did a backup and restore (did not by itself seem to solve the problem), then Reset Sync History, then rebooted my MBP, then Reset Sync History again, and then initiated a manual sync in the MobileMe control panel. Voila! iCal populated with the MobileMe data, and it appears that not only did iCal receive data, it also sent updates of its own on over to MM and thereby to my phone. We'll see if the reliability of the MM "ecosystem" under 10.5.5 gets, well, more reliable.

Imported events in iCal not syncing to iPhone

Hello,
I am having trouble getting events on from iCal to appear in my iPhone. I am using iCloud to sync events.
Here is the setup: I have a "work" calendar. I added events to this calendar by exporting them from Outlook and importing them to iCal. All the imported events appear in iCal and in the iCloud web interface. However, when I sync with my iPhone, none of the imported events appear. If I manually create an event in iCal, it appears on the phone and vice versa.
If I turn off iCloud calendars on the phone and sync using iTunes and the USB cable, all the imported events appear normally too. So it's just wireless syncing where somehow the phone doesn't download the events that were imported.
Any suggestions? I've tried turning iCloud off and on, deleting the calendars, and so on.
I'm using iOs 5.1.1 and 10.8.2.

First check that all your settings are correct, that calendar syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
Make sure the calendars you are using are in your 'iCloud' account and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud account (you can do this by clicking/tapping the calendar button in the top left corner of the application ), non iCloud calendars will not sync.
If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your calendars are in the iCloud account, you might try unchecking calendar syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling calendar syncing settings.

Why does ical not sync to MobileMe?

Since Lion, iCal is syncing only the first 4-5 events after adding the MobileMe Account.
After that, the syncing whell is running endless.
Specs are:
MobileMe:
6 x Calendars, 5 are published and shared with other Mac Users
Shared with other Users:
3 x Calendars
Abonemment:
2 x Calendars (Birthday by system and Calendar week)
Replicate problem:
I erased the entire account from iCal and from MobileMe on the Mac as well. After that I added the Mobile Me Account and the MobileMe Account at iCal. iCal synced all events accuratley but after the creation of further 4-5 events, iCal hangs by a running wheel to sync to Mobile Me. I can create further Events but it doesn't make sense, because the events will not be synced through mobiel me for my other iOS devices like iPohne and iPad.
Events created in iOS via iPhone or iPad will be synced between those devices through MobileMe but iCal doesn't sync.
Who knows help. Remember: I did erase the entire account and set it up new: doesn't help.
Comments?

Hi All
The MobileMe senior advisor resolved my problem! Thanks so much Cxxxx!
Here the instructions:
1. Open Terminal and use this command to copy the Calendars folder from ~/Library to your Desktop:
cp -r ~/Library/Calendars ~/Desktop
2. Open Disk Utility and create a new Disk Image from the Calendars folder on your Desktop by selecting File > New > Disk Image from Folder and then choosing the Calendars folder on your Desktop.
3. Save the new Disk Image to your Desktop as well.
4. Double-click the Calendars.dmg to open it.
5. In the new window that appears choose View > Show Toolbar from the Finder View menu.
6. In the Search field on the Toolbar enter "%" (without quotation marks).
7. Select "Filename contains %" when prompted by the Search pop-up.
8. Make sure the Search location is set to Calendars.
9. Then open the ICS files returned in a text editor such as BBEdit or TextEdit.
10. Locate the SUMMARY field (that's the event name).
11. Note the affected event name(s) in a text editor.
12. Lookup the affected events one by one in iCal. Note the date of the events in the same document that has the name(s).
13. Quit iCal when all the event dates are collected.
14. Go to me.com/calendar
15. Delete all iterations of matched events from me.com/Calendar
Once the problematic events have been deleted, you will then be able to sync to your iCal application without issue. Once syncing has been restored, you can then add back any events that you need to.
Hope that helps!
Life is good again
