Ical subscribed calendar with Iphone?

I have a client that uses Ical for multiple calendars. All are his, except for one, which he subscribes to.
That one calendar is not listed on his Iphone. It is the only one missing.
Is this normal or is there a way to turn on this functionality?

This is how I managed to get a workround.
Note my wife does not have a Mac, she only has a PC and uses her Iphone Calendar to share her appointments with me:
Firstly I Set up a new user on my Mac for my wife, I then created her ICal account and set it to publish to the net and for it to sync with MobileMe. You can email to subscribed Calendar link to your own account and subscribe from the message
Then go to this link and follow what they tell you to.
http://www.jacksmac.com/JacksMac/Jacks_Mac_Blog/Entries/2008/8/21_iPhones_Calendar_Can_Show_iCalSubscriptions.html
Once completed ICal checks the published Calendar and copies it to a local folder. You need to leave your Mac on for this to work.
In addition to this I set up fast user switching which really helps this process. I did this by:
System Preferences > Accounts > Login option (Bottom LHS of the screen) > Check the box saying Enable Fast user Switching.
You will then see your login name appear on the top RHS of your screen next to spotlight, switch your user to the second profile, Launch ICal and set Mobile Me to sync and leave Ical open.
Once you have done this switch back to your main profile and open ICal in the background, all Calendars should then sync through to your iphone and be updated every 15 minutes.
NOTE IN ORDER FOR THIS TO WORK PROPERLY, YOU NEED TO LEAVE YOUR MAC SWITCHED ON AND LEAVE ICAL RUNNING IN BOTH PROFILES.

Turning off iCal subscribed calendars on iPhone

I have a number of calendars that I subscribe to in iCal on my computer. These are calendars I choose to leave turned off in iCal - and simply turn them on if I need to know the details - for example appointments being made by staff etc.
I note since Snow Leopard and/or 3.1 on my iPhone that these calendars are being pushed to my iPhone. I am having difficulty working out how to turn them off on the iPhone. It makes it near impossible to view my own calendars easily.
Is there a way of choosing which calendars you want 'pushed' to your iPhone? Or can you turn certain calendars on or off? I know I can select one calendar at a time on the phone - but that's not sufficient.
Thanks.

I have a similar problem.
One of my calendars that's subscribed to on iCal continually wants a user name and password. I type then in correctly, but it doesn't work ultimately. So i just want it off. I cannot, however, figure out how to.

Sync of iCal to Calendar in iPhone off by 1 hour

This problem has just come up in a 2 week old iPhone 3GS. When I enter new events in iCal and sync with iPhone, the times are one hour later in Calendar. Appears to match the advance in 1 hour of Daylight Savings Time from Nov. - March. So, entering event on Dec. 1 at 8 AM in iCal yields 9 AM event in Calendar. Help!

I had the same problem of a 1 hour offset between events on iCal/MobileMe calendars and the iPhone Cal. iCal and MobileMe calendars were right with respect to each other but the iPhone would show that event as an hour later.
I seem to have solved this issue by the following:
Go to iPhone Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Calendars>Time Zone Support
Change Time Zone Support selector to "OFF" then back to "ON".
Exit Settings
NB: NOT Settings>General>Date & Time
My Time Zone Support selector was "on", however Time Zone showed Etc/GMT -4
When I selected Time Zone Support to "off" and then back to "on", Time Zone changed to show "New York" (my local area). Calendar events then displayed the same times as iCal/MobileMe.

Cant get ical to sync with iphone after installing OSX

cant get ical to sync with iphone after installing OSX

I too was a mobileme user and have just migrated to iCloud on mackbook pro w/OS 10.7.4. Transition caused my sent mailboxes to rearrange themselves so that I have no comprehensive 'sent' mailbox as I did previously and the view on both incoming and outgoing mailboxes keeps rearranging itself no matter how many times I set preferences. One result is that search function no longer works. Is anyone else having problems like this? All was fine for a week after transition but after having an evening when my password was repeatedly rejected I had to log in and out of iCloud (as directed by tech support) and w/in an hour or so the mailbox problem began.

Since I down loaded Mavericks I can't sync calendars with iPhone. How can I sync iPhone calendar and Mac calendar

Since I downloaded Mavericks on my Mac I can't sync calendars with iphone. How can I sync iphone calendars with Mac calendar?

Mavericks syncs Calendar via iCloud.
Make sure you have the same iCloud account set up on your mac and your iPhone.
In System Preferences > iCloud, make sure the Calendars checkbox is checked.
In System Preferences > Internet Accounts, iCloud should be an account in the box on the left, and Calendars should be checked in the box on the right. If you have other calendars, for example, from work, make sure those are enabled too.
Check the same settings on your iPhone: in Settings > iCloud, make sure the same iCloud account info is present and that the Calendars slider is on. in Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars, make sure the iCloud account is present, and that the Calendars slider is on.

How can I share my ical work calendar with my coworkers that are using google calendar?

How can I share my ical work calendar with my coworkers that are using google calendar?

You can only do this by syncing your calendar to an external server - MobileMe is designed for this but if you don't already have a MobileMe account you can't start one now.
If you do have a MobileMe account the method is described here:
http://www.wilmut.webspace.virginmedia.com/notes/sharedcalendar.html#publicshare
If you don't, you could sync to Google Calendar (Google accounts are free) or wait for iCloud which should be out in a couple of months and will probably provide this sort of facility.
You might like to consider BusyCal which is like iCal Pro - similar to iCal but with extra facilities. It can sync calendars on a Lan and also between accounts on the same machine (you have to have fast user switching enabled).
There is a free trial available on their website: it's slightly cheaper from the Mac App Store. (I have no connection with this company).

ICal subscribed calendars sync to iPhone ?

I have several calendars that are syncing well to iPhone from Leopard, but none of the subscribed calendars (holidays, sports team schedules, etc.) are syncing.
Is there some trick to get this to work?
Thank you for your help.

There are two answers to this subscribed calendars (holidays, sports team schedules, etc.) question.
1) When you sync the iPhone via your iTunes then the subscribed cals will sync. Be sure to check the correct boxes under iTunes. A visit to a genius bar may be needed.
2) If you sync your iPhone with MobileMe then you are out of luck.
The MobileMe issue:
This has been a thorn in everyones you know what for about one year. The answer to your question is..
You can't.
Apple does not support the idea of people actually getting all their info sync'd from MobileMe. If you have purchased a MobileMe Family Pack then the idea of sharing your info within a family is an oxymoron.
Just got back from MacWorld '09 and the utter disappointment in Apple not supplying an update to the iPhone in the Schiller keynote is overwhelming. No matter what the media is saying about MacWorld. The fact is, the two main issues at hand that people wanted to see for the iPhone was Copy/Paste and Shared iCals on their iPhones. It was not the stupid rumor of a iPhone nano. People really want functions fixed before new hardware.
No matter what Apple execs state about 'no one seems to care about these issues' is a lack of understanding about being mobile and productive. Apple created a great phone without allowing people to be to mobile.
So, until Apple finds the need to help its customer base with features they need or want (other then games and ifart programs from iTunes).. Well you are out of luck.
Sad to state, but true.

How do I sync MacBook Pro's old iCal calendar with iPhone 4?

I had MobileMe, which as you all know, was not a perfect program. MobileMe left me with duplicates of every Calendar but I am not sure which one to delete of each pair for fear of losing date. But it did sync my iPhone and my iCal on my MacBookPro. So when it was suggested that I move to iCloud, I thought: Great idea. Maybe this program will work better!
Well now I have no syncing between iCal calendar and iPhone iCal calendar.
Does anyone know how to use this thing?
AGH!
Thanks for any help you can shoot my way. Assume idiocy: step 1, step 2, step 3 appreciated and for each device if you know how to fix this!

Contacts and calender you can put on icloud then sync to your new phone when its setup to the icloud account. Not sure so with emails.

ICal and subscribed calendars with MobileMe using AppleScript

I am having the same problem as many of you; I have a MobileMe account which does not sync the calendars I have in iCal that are subscriptions. I found this great script online which I'll post below. I don't know anything about AppleScript so I'm just copy-pasting. I want it to work, but I'm getting the error "The variable theOldEvent is not defined." right around the line "if similar_found is true then set theOldSummary to the summary of theOldEvent" kinda near the middle. Like I said, I don't know anything about AppleScript. So my question is; how can I fix this error and/or is there some better way of using AppleScript/Automator to do this same thing? Thanks!

How to sync Google Calendar 's subscribed calendars to iPhone?

I've subscribed to several country calendars in Google Calendar. I also managed to see these subscribed calendars in iCal, by setting my Google account in the iCal Account Preference. However, when I sync to my iPhone 4, I cannot see those subscribed calendars on my iPhone 4. Everything else is okay. I've tried both CalDAV & Gmail sync. Neither one works. Could anyone help me on this? Many thanks in advance.
Gary

Hi Gary,
I was having the same problem and was looking for a solution which brought me here. And about 30 seconds after reading your post I found a solution by mistake. Here's what I did.
1) I set up my device like explained here.
http://www.google.com/support/mobile/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=138740
Which I believe you've already done.
2) Then I went to my Google calendar and went to the subscribed calendar settings and copied the ical calendar address and sent it to myself.
3) I clicked on the address in my email account on my computer, and it asked me where I wanted the subscription in iCal, so I picked the account I had linked to Google Calendar through the setup in step 1.
4) That was it.
It now is part of my Google Calendar and no longer a subscription and shows up everywhere. Only problem is I can't change the color because it is now merged with my google calendar, but it beats having to subscribe to it on all my devices. Which is another option.
Hope this helps.

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.

SharePoint subscribed calendar on iPhone?

We have a shared calendar on SharePoint that my team uses to track who is out of the office. The site is only accessible when connected to our network (or through VPN). I subscribe to the calendar in Outlook 2007. My question is: is it possible to sync the SharePoint calendar with my iPhone through Exchange? My iPhone is synced with my Exchange account, but I'm not sure how to add another calendar that is viewable on my iPhone.

For anyone still having this issue, I found a solution. I wanted to unsubcribe from my Facebook events calendar, since Facebook is now integrated into iOS 6.
Under Settings -> Mail, Contacts, Calendars...
The subscribed calendar will show up under the "Accounts" list (with email accounts and such). Click on the calendar subscription. It will take you to a settings page. At the botton there will be a big, red "Delete Account" button.
I discovered this using iOS 6, by the way, though I'm not sure if that matters.
Good luck!

Ipad no longer syncs calendar with iphone 6

My iPad was working fine a few days ago in syncing calendars with my new iPhone 6; however, I just noticed that when I receive invites [ics] they appear on my iPhone but do not go into the cloud to appear on the iPad. I tested putting something on my calendar and that appeared on both devices; however, getting a test email from another person, it didn't show. I signed out/in back into icloud on the iPad and still not syncing. I feel the sync is broken and I don't know how to get it back. Can someone give me guidance on what to do? I sync wirelessly on both devices and have also synced the with the cable. NOTHING. I use a PC.

While we all have MacBooks in this forum most of us don’t run Mountain Lion. There's a Mountain Lion Support Community where everybody has Mountain Lion. You should also post this question there to increase your chances of getting an answer. https://discussions.apple.com/community/mac_os/os_x_mountain_lion

Sync calendar with iphone

i am not able to figure out how to sync my calendar on my computer with my iphone. i have shred my calendar with my girlfiend, no problem. when i change my calendar on my computer she gets the updates, but i can't get it to update on my iphone 5s. i really think it's inconvenient to have to do it via itunes. can't it just update when i plug it into the usb to charge? or updtae when i connect to my home network? i tried to look it up but the instructions tell me to go into itunes and click on the device button in the top right, but the is no button. it also says under the summary tab to select "Sync with this [device] over Wi-Fi". but that option does not exist either. both devices are up to date. it really shouldn't be this hard i would think.

Have you tried going to settings, mail contacts calendars , clicking on your email account and turning on the calendar? And then going to calendars app and clicking calendars in the bottom/ middle of the screen and marking off the calendars you wish to see?
