ICal: STRANGE syncing of Appointments for "Oct 28th, 2007"

When syncing iCal to .Mac all dates/times are synched correctly. Only appointments for Oct 28th, 2007 sync to one hour earlier.
*What did I do? How to reproduce?*
- My MacBook is in TimeZone CEST (Berlin - Germany)
- in iCal created a new calendar "test"
- created an appointment for Oct 26th, 2007 at 11:00
- copied that appointment and moved copies to Oct 27th, Oct 28th, ... Nov 1st
- published calendar to .mac
- all appointments on .mac-calendar on the web show appointment start time of 11:00, only on Oct 28th the appointment starts at 10:00.
*Troubleshoot attempts:*
- checked Timeszone settings - even changed, synched, re-set timezone to correct value
- moved appointment for Oct 28th to later time; delta of one hour remained
- exported calendar to desktop and reloaded it - no change
- moved appointment to last Sunday of October 2008 (Oct 26th, 2008) - SUDDENLY SHOWS SAME PROBLEM OF ONE HOUR DELTA
- however, trying LAST SUNDAY in other months (July 07, Aug 07, Sep 07, Nov 08) did work fine
=> Problem seems to exist for last Sunday of each October

iCommit,
Your Macbook is running Mac OS X 10.4.8, and according to:
About Daylight Saving Time changes in 2007 Apple is providing software updates for Mac OS X 10.3, 10.4 and later based on worldwide time zone information available as of January 8, 2007. To make sure that your clock maintains the proper time, simply install the updates that are shown for your computer in Software Update. You should install these updates even if your computer is used in a time zone that is not affected.
Since the Mac OS X 10.4.9 Update specifically contained DST changes, I would recommend that you update both systems to 10.4.10.

Custom Sync Plugin Sample for Web Tools 2007

Hello,
Does anyone have a sample Custom Sync Plugin that works for Web Tools 2007? I have been unable to get the sample provided working, actually cannot even compile it, and was just curious if there was a simple sample that worked that I could use as my base. Please let me know.
Thank you,
Kristen

Hi Shawn,
Yes, I am using Visual Studio 2005 Professional with the .Net 2.0 framework and 2007. However, most of the methods are not there, and things seem to have changed drastically, however the sample is still referencing the old. Is there something that I am missing?
Please let me know.
Thanks,
Kristen

Exchang, Mail, Ical - strange sync problem

Hi
I have a very strange problem... i guess.
After installing Snow Leopard both on my MacBook Pro and my Imac I've set up Exchange 2007.
It all works just fine on the MB, both mail and calendar. Downloading mails and syncing my calendar events. I can also subscribe to my co-workers calendars, all good.
However, on the Imac it's downloading my mail, and syncs with my calendar, but I cant subscribe to my co-workers calendars, and I can't find any differences in the setup in Ical. It wont even show which calendars that's available...
Is there anybody who had similar problems? :o/
Kind Regards, Michel

Here is what I would do, as a test.
1) Check to see if you selected within iCal's preference the "Show Birthdays calendar" option. If so, close the preferences window, select the Birthdays calendar and Export to your drive (Desktop) for backup. Then return to iCal preference and uncheck the Birthdays calendar option.
2) Create a new calendar named Test (or whatever you choose other than Birthdays). Create a bogus all-day event for the new calendar like you would have for someone's birthday in the Birthdays calendar, and place it on a day that you have one of your appointments.
3) Sync to your phone and see the results. If the events show up correctly on your phone, then return to iCal and change your new calendar's name to Birthdays, create another all-day event on the day of a current appointment and again sync with your phone.
4) If this too is correct on your phone after synching, then the culprit would be the iCal's Birthdays setting. I would then leave this option off and then import the backup export I made in step 1 into my new Birthdays calendar.
5) Once again sync w/ the phone to see if the issue is gone. If so, you have your workaround.
If not, or if during any of the other steps the issue arose, I would say the problem lies within your Nokia or maybe even another calendar. That be the case, somewhat repeat the steps above in creating a new calendar, exporting the "bad" calendar, test a new entry in the new calendar to sync w/ your phone, and if successful, import the "bad" calendar's data into your new calendar to see if that is successful.
A bit of work, but it just might resolve your issue. Good luck and I look forward to seeing if it works.

Getting iCal to sync with iCloud for two Macs, and a 3G iPhone

I currently have a Macbook and MacMini both running 10.7.2, and just started using iCloud this week to sync contacts, iCal, bookmarks, etc. I thought I initially had problems with iCal as I was getting two copies of every event showing up on my MacBook, but then realized I had two sets of calanders, ("on my mac" and "iCloud"). After I unchecked the "on my mac" calanders, everything appeared normal.
The problem I face now is with my 3G iPhone that can't run iOS5, and thus, no iCloud. My iCal on my iPhone is set to sync with my "on my mac" calanders, so with those unselected, the events are not showing up on my Macbook, and thus, aren't being synced to my MacMini.
My question is, can I have my 3G iPhone sync to my iCloud calanders everytime I connect it to my Macbook to sync via USB, instead of syncing with the "on my mac" calanders as it is currently doing without have iOS5 capabilities on my iPhone? If not, is there a way to have iCloud keep syncing with my "on my mac" calander list, so that it is always up to date, and data from my iPhone will be synced over to my iCloud calander list from the "on my mac" calander list?
I'm just trying to figure out if I'll be able to transfer new iCal dates I create on my 3G iPhone over to my iCloud calander list, and ideally, vice versa.
Thanks in advance for the help.

I understand that iCloud won't run on it or with it. I'm just trying to figure out if there is a way to sync the "on my mac" calanders (which sync to my iPhone iCal everytime I connect via USB) continually with my iCloud calandars so the two are always up to date.

Blackberry calendar will not sync all appointments to MS Outlook 2007

Hello All,
Hardware and Software background:
BB Storm 2 9550 registered on the the Verizon Wireless Network ("VZW")
OS of the device: Version 5.0.0.105 (official OS from VZW)
Desktop OS: MS Windows 7 Ultimate Premium
Problem:
I am trying to sync all of my BB calendar entries to the Outlook 2007 Calendar and the device or Intellisynch software will not sync any BB calendar appointment that is added under the [email protected] service book/calendar. In fact the only entries that will sync to Outlook are those entered under/with the @vzw.blackberry.net service book/calendar. This was confirmed with a number of test appointments added to the BB. The only ones that sync are those added under the @vzw.blackberry.net service book/calendar. I deleted all the service books with CICAL in the name; sync and then resent my service books and still no luck.
When I go to Calendar\Options all of my calendars are there; when I select @vzw.blackberry.net there are 3421 entries; when I select the @gmail.com calendar it has 9 entries.
Questions:
1. How do I get the BB calendar enteries all of them to synch with Outlook.
2. When I enter an appointment on the BB I want the default calendar to be @gmail.com; I already have that selected under Default Services.
3. How to do I "merge" the calendar entries entered under @vzw.blackberry.net service book/calendar with those for [email protected]
Thanks,
Vernon

I have provided some information below that may help.
Question 1: To complete this task I would recommend downloading the latest version of the Blackberry Desktop software. To download the software please select the link www.vzam.net/blackberry and select whether you have personal or corporate email.
        Desktop version 6 instructions:
1.      Once downloaded and installed I would recommend setting up the synchronization through the “Organizer”
2.      Select the data to organizer (i.e Calendar)
3.      Click Configure settings
4.      Select (i.e Calendar)
5.      Select the direction of the synchronization (two way sync, one way sync, etc.)
6.      Select the preferred options
7.      Select Finish
Question 2: I have provided a Blackberry link below on Gmail calendar synchronization

ICal don´t sync allday appointments with SE Phone P800

Hello,
since updating to 10.4.6., Isync 2.2., with ICal 2.0.3, i am not able to sync all day appointments that I had new created on a mac with my Sony Ericcson P 800.
If I create a appointment with hours it is syncing. What could be wrong?
Has someone the same problem and a solution?

Hello,
I found out that it is a question of time when the appointment would happen.
All day appointments in the futute are not syncing, for example from yet, end of april a new appointment in september is not synced. It is correct that the newest ISync/ICal only sync 8 weeks in the future not longer. Knows someone what is the current longest period to sync?

Some calendars in iCal appear corrupted but OK on iPhone. If I sync will the calendar data on the phone restore info on the desktop iCal? any other ideas for how to sort this please?

Some calendars in iCal appear corrupted (ie have red exclamation mark by them) but are still OK on iPhone. If I sync, will the calendar data on the phone restore info on the desktop iCal or will I lose that as well? Or could I back up the calendars on my iPhone somewhere and then import them into iCal? any other ideas for how to sort this please? it's driving me mad. thanks.

I don't think there will be a solution to this. Exchange 2003 just isn't supported.

I am wanting to print my iCal calendar, as use it for bookings but not include entries calendar from other people who I've synced with.

GACU,
OK, now I think I understand your problem.
If it is your calendar that is being shared with other users who have been granted editing priviliges, you will not be able to exclude those events from printing.

Suddenly ICal & Address Book stopped syncing with Outlook for Mac

2 days ago, ICal and Address Book stopped syncing with Outlook for Mac 2011. I still have full functionality of Email in Outlook.
What is wrong and how can I fix it?

Any solution here yet? I have the same issue. After upgrading to Yosemite Outlook for mac kept requiring me to "rebuild identity database"
I did this many times so there were many new identities.
Finally I researched and found out that after the Yosemite update outlook would rebuild identity and once you do that there is a mismatch of your email account in outlook which just needs to be deleted and re-added to fix.
Now since then my outlook contacts and apple address book do not speak to each other.
If I make a new contact on my iphone and sync with my mac it will appear in apple address book.
If I make a new contact in outlook it will not appear on the iPhone.
So the phone is communicating and syncing with apple address book but wherever the apple address book goes to find the outlook contacts it must be using one of the older "identities"
Also now when I am in outlook and go from email to contacts it takes about 20 seconds to open the 5,300 contacts and it used to be instant.
Is there a way to view where outlook is getting the data? When I go into Outlook Preferences, Sync Services, "On My Computer:" is the one that is chosen so that should be good.
Any help?

Events not showing in iCal after sync with iPhone

A whole week of appointments don't show up in iCal after syncing with my iPhone - all the appointments are on my iPhone but they won't copy over.
Funnily enough, the week that is not showing up is changing every Monday...
Anyone seen this before?

I found this solution in another discussion. It's from this website: http://iphonewriter.blogspot.co.nz/2008/05/how-to-fixing-ical-iphone-sync-issues .html)
"You'll know the syncing issue when you see it, because the new events you enter into the Calendar on your Apple iPhone will not appear in iCal. Said another way, you'll enter a new event into your iPhone, use iTunes to sync with your Mac (or MacBook in our case) and the new event on your iPhone will not show up in iCal. Keep trying, synch as you might, iCal and the Apple iPhone just won't get along.
Here's the down and dirty fix:
Open iCal and backup or export your entries. Make a note of the fie name and location, you're going to need them in a minute. Once your backup/export is completed, close the iCal application.
Open Finder and remove everything inside the "Username/Library/Calendars" folder. For instance, if your username is "Joe", then move everything inside the "Joe/Library/Calendars" folder.
Open the iSync application. It's located in the "/Applications/" folder. Once iSync is opened, go into the iSync Preferences (iSync -> Preferences) and push/click the "Reset Sync History" button. Then, close the iSync application.
Re-Open the iCal application and Restore your calendar. When prompted, use your notes from Step #1 to select the file your created earlier.
At this point all my appointments were showing up properly in iCal, and did not disappear after syncing again with the iPhone.

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.

ICal not syncing correctly with MobileMe

For the last week or so, ever since MobileMe was being updated, my iCal synching with MobileMe and iPhone has stopped working correctly. When I enter a meeting into iCal, it syncs to MobileMe and therefore my iPhone.
HOWEVER, any new calendar entries from the iPhone (or MobileMe's website directly), do not show up on iCal even after i try to manually Sync them. Furthermore, if I change the time of a meeting or call on iCal, a DUPLICATE meeting is created in MobileMe, thus polluting my calendar on the iPhone and MobileMe with multiple entries. When I am on the road, I can't figure out which is the correct meeting anymore.
Not sure if this is due to new iTunes or the update with MobileMe servers last week.
Here is what I have done to troubleshoot this to date:
- In MobileMe preferences, I stopped synching my MacBook with MobileMe and wiped out all of the data on MobileMe. I rebooted my MacBook, then, I Reset Sync Data from iCal to MobileMe. It seeded fine, but still doesn't show any appointments created from the iPhone or within MobileMe on my iCal after re-syncing.
- I deleted my MobileMe account on my iPhone. Rebooted iPhone. Re-added my MobileMe account to the iphone and synched the calendar. The calendar syncs and shows up, but still no appointments created on my iPhone or within MobileMe show on my iCal.
- I have also tried to NARROW the variables of my issue by not synching ANYTHING ELSE other than iCal (no contacts, mail settings etc.). To No avail, still doesn't work.
Any suggestions?? I sense there is something cached in the bowels of my iCal settings, but have no idea to re-set them to re-enable synching.

I solved the issue. I took a risk and wiped my MobileMe account clean one last time, then RESET SYNCH Data from my MacBook to MobileMe.
Then, I crossed my fingers and deleted my calendars on my iCal desktop.
I then, chose RESET SYNCH Data FROM MobileMe TO MacBook pro - effectively overwriting my iCal with the same data I just uploaded into MobileMe.
The result? Everything started working again. I added meetings to my calendar with my iPhone and they showed up on my iCal Desktop (MacBook). Yeah!

Ical Beta - Syncing and iTunes

Hi,
I don’t know where to Post this Question but I think it’s more related to the iCal Beta.
Here it goes.
Since my upgrade to iCal Beta I have lost all the functionality I had and I have not been able to find a way to get it working the way I want.
I have 6 iPhone’s all Syncing on the same account via iTunes 10.
4x3Gs and 2x3G
I want me and my wife to be synced via Mobile Me.
I want the kids to Sync to my iMac via itunes every week or so and as such I can get their schedules on my Mac and then on my iPhone.
This is how it was setup.
Our Phones (my Wife’s and mine) Synced with MobileMe for Address and Calendar Info.
Then Various folders and stuff on the itunes Library.
The Kids all synced up Locally with Calendar and Address Book and then iTunes Stuff.
I got all the updated Calenders on my iPhone via MobileMe.
It worked Great.
We sync on my Mac as to use the same iTunes Library.
Since the Upgrade to iCal Beta I don't have the Option in iTunes to select the local Calendar for the Kids Phones.
I set up separate local Calendars in iCAl which then don't sync up to mobile me.
I though at least they will show up in iTunes But they also dont show in Itunes.
I cant select anything apart from the default Calendar in iTunes and the kids iPhone.
It seems that all functionality is now only via mobileme and that I am forced to be online 24/7 if I want my Data to be synced.
This means that my kids will also have to be connected to MobileMe and have access to my Calendar Data.
I do not want that as I have also client appointments which I cant risk them Altering or deleting.
Is there a Way for me to get my previous functionality with this new setup of iCal Beta?

Yes i have the latest iTunes.
Yes I have USB 2.0 and I am plugged directly into the computer.
It finally got everything loaded on the thrid try.
EDIT: For what it is worth I have an iPod Touch that syncs to the same computer actually using the same USB port with no problems. And if it matters I am not using the same sync cable.

ICal/iPhone sync keeps losing events

Several times recently I have entered a new event in iCal on my iPhone. Then at some point in the future, I go to look for the event, either on my phone or via iCal on my MacBook, and the event has disappeared. A couple of times I found that my calendar sync settings in iTunes had switched themselves off. Today, however, "Sync iCal Calendars" is still checked, with the "All Calendars" radio button enabled.
I have lost two doctor's appointments and a friend's birthday this way.

I have been having this problem since I got the iPhone two Years ago. It will work fine for a while, but occasionally get rid of events. I know of 3 in the last couple weeks that have been saved and are fine but then they mysteriously disappear.
The last time I talked to Apple Support, they told me that I am the only person that they have had report this issue and the only person that seemed to have multiple calendars (I have 23, and need them). It is funny how the forum talk about iCal/iPhone syncing issues but apple doesn't seem to know about it.
They had me back up all my events on the computer and restore them. Then re-sync the iPhone. That seemed to work most of the times, but it seems to be a problem again for some reason....I just lost a couple more appointments^%&*^%
I hope they find time to actually fix the problem. As we become more dependent on these calendars, losing appointment information becomes more and more frustrating. Enough to change phones...

Google Calendar Delegates in iCal Not Syncing

Hello Everyone.
I've been stumped on my issue for some time and have been researching but found nothing.
OSX: 10.6.8
iCal: 4.0.4
My boss uses google calendar. I'm his assistant and he's shared that calendar with me so that I have access to it through my google account and I can add and delete events.
I like using iCal. So I synced my iCal up with my google Calendar. I used the calDAV method of syncing. I can add and delete events to my calendar just fine. I was able to add and delete events to my boss' calendar by creating a delegate calendar through iCal. Everything worked fine. However my boss added another calendar to his google account. I didn't think this would have any effect on my ability to edit events as I simply set up my boss' new calendar as another delegate in iCal.
The problem now is that I cannot get either of my delegate accounts to sync.
I deleted my calDAV and started from scratch in iCal. I added my googole account and delegates. Everything works fine. All of my boss' events load into my iCal but as soon I I try to edit one of them my delegate will no longer sync.
It seems like this should work and be easy but I cannot find a solution to keep my delegates syncing.
Does anyone have any ideas?
I also have a mobileMe calDAV that syncs just fine with iCal.
Thanks!
-Drew

Similar problem here. I can select the delegate calendars within iCal, but it simply doesn't sync any events for the delegate calendars. I'm also returned an error if I try to manually subscribe to the calendars, e.g. using a direct link from the Google calendar settings.
Either way, I think it's all related to a known block Google have implemented to deal with an iCloud conflict. Keep an eye here for a solution...although it's been several months already obviously:
http://support.google.com/calendar/bin/answer.py?hl=en-GB&answer=99360#
NB. The iPhone select solution will get things rolling on any iOS devices.
