ICal - On My Mac Calendar - Card

On my Macbook Pro - iCal is being very slow to update. I am set up to synch with 2 Google calendars and that has been working fine for over a year. I looked at my calendars and now it has a lot of entries under On my Mac that say "card", as well as my Google Calendars. Any suggestions?

I removed all my calendars and the cards are still there and are now listed as my default calendar.
Is there some other app that is automatically creating these entries that I could check? I have gone through and unchecked the cards above and the next time I go in they are checked again.

Sharing iCal with non-mac calendars

How can I share my iCloud calendar with someone who stubbornly doesn't want to download iCloud to their PC or set up an @me email on their iPhone??

Hi there brucedm!
I have some information that might prove useful to you about iCloud. First, iCloud is a free service, and you can find more information on the basics of it in the following webpage:
Apple - iCloud - Your content. On all your devices.
http://www.apple.com/icloud/
I also have some more specific information for you regarding iCloud calendars and sharing calendars. This article is an overview of calendar sharing:
iCloud: Calendar sharing overview

And this one is about activating sharing on your iCloud calendars:

How can I get ALL of my Google Calendars to show on the iCal on my iPhone? I see all of my Google Calendars on the iCal on my Mac, but I do not see them in the iCal on my iPhone. I only see one Google Cal, but not the others.

Lion 10.7.2 On both mac book pro and iMac, both with Lion 10.7.2, obtain repeated iCal event notifications from calendar or address book. Cannot turn these off. They repeat several times per session and every time computer is used. How to diagnose this

Lion 10.7.2 On both mac book pro and iMac, both with Lion 10.7.2, obtain repeated iCal event notifications from calendar or address book. Cannot turn these off. They repeat several times per session and every time computer is used. How to diagnose this?

First, uninstall "SuperTV" (whatever that is) according to the developer's instructions. It isn't working and it's filling the log with noise.
If you have more than one user account, these instructions must be carried out as an administrator.
Launch the Console application.
Step 1
Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left.
Enter "BOOT_TIME" (without the quotes) in the search box. Note the timestamps of those log messages, which refer to the times when the system was booted. Now clear the search box and scroll back in the log to the last boot time when you had the problem. Post the messages logged before the boot, while the system was unresponsive or was failing to shut down. Please include the BOOT_TIME message at the end of the log extract.
Post the log text, please, not a screenshot. If there are runs of repeated messages, post only one example of each. Don’t post many repetitions of the same message. When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
PLEASE DO NOT INDISCRIMINATELY DUMP THOUSANDS OF LINES FROM THE LOG INTO A MESSAGE. If you do that, I will not respond.
Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Edit it out by search-and-replace in a text editor before posting.
Step 2
Still in Console, look under System Diagnostic Reports for crash or panic logs, and post the most recent one, if any. In the interest of privacy, I suggest you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if present (it may not be.) Please don’t post shutdownStall, spin, or hang logs — they're very long and not helpful.

How do I sync 'on my mac' calendar in ical with icloud or an alternative for my iphone?

I'm using Outlook 2011 with 2 IMAP email addresses, a business email and a gmail address. The only reason I'm using Outlook instead of Mail, Address Book and iCal is because there were issues with me receiving meeting invites from business colleagues. Anyway, now I'm using Outlook, my contacts & calendar are no longer synchronising with my iPhone (4). I'm using the Outlook synch services to copy the Contact info to Address Book and the calendar info to iCal. BUT, the calendar in iCal is 'On My Mac' and doesnt get picked up by iCloud.
Can anyone help with simple suggestions for a wireless solution for keeping Outlook calendar in synch with my phone? Would upgrading my email account to Exchange be a solution?

Thanks Winston. I'm aware that the 'on my mac' calendar doesn't get picked up by iCloud. I'm wondering whether anyone can help with the best alternative solution for synchronisation of phone and Outlook.

I have an iMac with 10.9.1 and an iPhone 5 also updated to the newest system and I cannot get a sync set up between Ical and the iPhone or Outlook 2011 mac calendar with the iphone

I have an iMac with 10.9.1 and an iPhone 5 also updated to the newest system and I cannot get a sync set up between Ical and the iPhone or Outlook 2011 mac calendar with the iphone. I would perfer using outlook but will settle for the Imac calendar

It depends on what iMac you have. If it is an old PPC (G4 orG5) iMac then no further upgrades are possible. If it an Intel iMac:
Start by checking if you can run Snow Leopard:
Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
(NB: PowerPC applications can still be run in Snow Leopard using Rosetta, but they will not work in later versions of OS X.)
The OS 10.6 Snow Leopard install DVD is available for $19.99 from the Apple Store:
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
and in the UK:
http://store.apple.com/uk/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard to bring it up to 10.6.8, or download the combo update from here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399
Check via Software Update whether any further updates are required, particularly to iTunes.
You should now see the App Store icon in iTunes, and you now need to set up your account:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4479
You can now upgrade to Mavericks OS 10.9 for free IF you have one of the following Macs, with not less than 2GB of RAM, and at least 8GB of available space on your hard drive:
iMac (Mid-2007 or later)
MacBook (13-inch Aluminum, Late 2008), (13-inch, Early 2009 or later)
MacBook Pro (13-inch, Mid-2009 or later), (15-inch, Mid/Late 2007 or later), (17-inch, Late 2007 or later)
MacBook Air (Late 2008 or later)
Mac Mini (Early 2009 or later)
Mac Pro (Early 2008 or later)
Xserve (Early 2009)
iCloud system requirements:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4759
If you cannot run Mavericks you can purchase the code to use to download Lion from the App Store (Lion requires an Intel-based Mac with a Core 2 Duo, i3, i5, i7 or Xeon processor and 2GB of RAM, running the latest version of Snow Leopard):

ICal on my MAC book seems to be hung up. Msg. says "upgrading ical calendars-"

ICal on my MACBook running 10.7.5 seems to be hung up. Appointments from my iphone sync and show up but I am not able to enter anything to iCal on my MAC or change from monthly calendar to week or day view. The message (for days) shows PROGRESS "Upgrading iCal calendars..." What should I do to get this working again?

Roger,
Quit iCal, paste this text ~/Library into the Finder>Go>Go to Folder...window and select "Go." This will open the Users Library Folder.
Then open the Preferences Folder in that Library Folder, and move the com.apple.iCal.plist file to the Desktop.
Log out/in or restart, and open iCal to update.

ICal 'on my mac' to iPhone - How can I see on my phone, the entries in calendars under 'On My Mac'?

iCal 'on my mac' to iPhone - How can I see on my phone, the entries in calendars under 'On My Mac'?
I have several entries (too many) on calendars created prior to iCloud. They are listed as calendars 'On My Mac'. How can I get this information to my phone? I understand that iCloud makes On My Mac calendars obsolete?
I use my phone calendar to see my duties for the day, and only add entries if I'm out and on the fly. These I don't mind typing into the iCloud calendars. But my regular process when I'm sitting in front of the computer is to add them via iCal using the On My Mac calendars created years ago, over time. I need to see this information while on the go. How can I?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Create a new empty calendar from the iCal file menu, select which account you want to create it in.
If you have only a few appointments you can move them individually by editing them and changing the calendar in the edit options.
Alternatively you can copy all the appointments in one calendar to another and delete the original.
To copy a calendar ctrl-click on it from the menu that appears when you select the calendar button (top left corner of iCal) and choose export (export it to your desktop for ease)
Double click the exported file and choose the new empty calendar to import them into.
Ctrl-click on the original calendar from the menu that appears when you select the calendar button and choose delete.

Does iCal has alert feature like in Mac Calendar?

Does iCal has alert feature like in Mac Calendar?
In the Mac Calendar, you can set a alarm for an event to send an e-mail at 15 minutes before event. Is it possible to do same in iPad iCal?

I know it will pop up an alert message, but is it possible to get it to send out an e-mail message instead? If it is possible, could you tell me how to do it in the iPad? I seem to be only able to make it pop out a message but not able to make it sends out an e-mail. Thanks.

New On My Mac calendar in iCal

Hi, I just upgraded to OSX 10.9 and can no longer find where to create a new iCal calendar On My Mac. I only have the option to create one on iCal.

Okay, upgrading to Mavericks really screwed up my iCal and I've been on Apple Tech Support all night and it's still not finished. BUT to add an On My Mac calendar (that Mavericks erased when upgrading) back:
log Calenders out of iCloud by deselecting the check box in iCloud preferences
disable all shared Google Cal calendars
open iCal
File >> New Cal >> On My Mac

Cannot synchronize "ON MY MAC" calendars in Ical with iCloud.

Cannot synchronize "ON MY MAC" calendars in Ical with iCloud. It works well from iCloud to Ical, and Ical to iCloud except for all the calendars in the "ON MY MAC" group.
Please help.

That's correct: both in MobileMe and iCloud you cannot 'sync' 'On My Mac' calendars. This is because there is no actual syncing in the literal sense: the calendars are held on the server, and read from there by iCal (think of it as being like webmail and it makes sense).
The only way to 'sync' an 'On My Mac' calendar is to move it to iCloud. This page is written for MobileMe but the principle is the same: please follow the first set of numbered instructions.

Entourage & iCal Calendars in Sync but .Mac Calendar Empty

I am able to sync my Entourage and iCal calendars between my two machines with no problem but my .Mac calendar is empty though it displays the correct name for the calendar when I access it at http://ical.mac.com/[myname]/[calendar name]. Can anyone help me please? Is this an iDisk problem? I have closed down and rebooted both machines but this hasn't made any difference.

I would also like to know what to do about this as I am having the exact same problem.
If I upgrade to Lion will it import all the calendars from the iCloud?
or Can i get everything back without having to upgrade?

How do I get ical on the iphone to upload to mac calendar

Calendar information on my Mac syncs to the iphone, but info on the iphone does not upload to the Mac calendar when syncing. I have checked all the settings and am not figuring it out...

Google.

Business iCal sending out multiple calendar invites - one calendar and one account, 2 people using it for work

First question:
My boss has a Macbook Pro (iPad & iPhone), I have a Dell and iPad. We use his iCal for our work calendar and my Outlook is logged into his iCal so that I can load appointments & send them out to clients. He obviously has access to the same calendar so that he can also load appointments.
We have realised that sometimes the meeting invite, although I only send ONE invite out, will send 6 invites to a person. Here below you will see the icons that appear next to the 6 invites that the person that receives it sees next to the invites. It is therefor 3 types of emails/invites that are each sent out twice to the client. This is obviously not ideal. Could it be that I must not include my boss in the invites (as it is already his calendar sending out the invites), or what could it be that I am doing wrong?
Second question:
How can I ensure that replies (Yes/No/Maybe/Comments) appear in the iCal meeting, as people reply, but those replies I have to copy and paste into the meeting as they do not currently automatically update in the meeting.
Third question:
Any suggestions on a better system/method?
Please help!

I think I know what can help. I also support Mac users in a mixed environment, and find that being able to access a Windows machine to test settings for my iCal users is very very helpful. If you do not have one, I could also fix this one by adding the user's account to my one Mac that runs Entourage.
On a PC: set up one of the problem accounts in Outlook, then go to Tools->Options & click on the Delegates tab. Click on a Delegate name (if they all have the same permission level, you can select all), then click the Permissions button. If the delegate have "Editor" permissions, there will be a little checked box that sends the delegate copies of all those meetings. De-select it.
Lemme know if you want Entourage instructions or if that does it for you.
The real question, of course, is why are there so many Exchange functions that iCal can't touch. Grrrr....
