Ical sync share

Hello,
how can I share my Ical to other people who do not want to join the Icloud? Like an URL they can type in to their browser.
Thanks, Sebastian

You might be interested in Address Book Server (http://www.addressbookserver.com). It allows you to sync either the entire Address Book or selected groups between several macs on the same network or over the internet.

Mobile User iCal Sync not syncing

Hi,
I've got a mobile user account that doesn't seem to be syncing properly. It only seems to affect iCal sync, though.
On the user's MacBook, they have two calendars which are local calendars and one CalDAV account back on the iCal Server.
On the user's mac mini in the office, they aren't getting the local calendars from the MacBook despite the MacBook doing a full sync before they log in to the Mac Mini.
Does this mean that local iCal calendars are stored outside of the user's home directory? Has anyone else come across this problem?
Cheers,
Stu

In Lion, iCal is now synced via iCal Preferences.
This from iCal help using the search criteria "sync"
Set up a MobileMe account
If you’re a MobileMe subscriber, you can use iCal to access and manage your MobileMe calendars. For example, in iCal, you can add subscribed calendars to your MobileMe Calendar account so you can view them in iCal and on devices with iOS 4 or later. You can also share calendars, which allows others to see or edit the calendars.
If your calendars are already set up to be synced using MobileMe, then your MobileMe Calendar account is already set up. To sync your calendars using MobileMe, see:
Sync calendars across devices
Choose iCal > Preferences and click Accounts.
To add a new account, click Add in the lower-left corner.
Enter your MobileMe email address and password, and then click Create.iCal finds any calendar accounts associated with the email address you provide.
For more information about working with MobileMe calendars, visit the MobileMe website.

Error while creating a sync share with Work Folders

Hi,
While testing with the new Windows 2012 R2 feature, Work folders, I've come across a config error.
In the new sync share wizard, I select the home folder path in the test domain. I select none of the options in the Device Policies page. In the resulting pane, the following error is thrown under the task, Create Device Policies.
"The WS-Management service cannot process the request. The service cannot find the resource identified by the resource URI and selectors."
Is there an additional step before performing the sync share?

Ayca

HT2513 Ical sync with iPad limited to 2 years in the future

Ical sync from Mac to iPad only appears to work for events up to 2 years in the future. After two years from current date no events show up on iPad. Can you increase this to sync events three years into the future?

Hi,
Are you following these instructions (I have not done this):
http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/calendar/yahoocalendar/sync/sync-03.html
Only the CalDAV calendar created with this process should sync.

Do Reminders in iCal sync via iTunes?

I'm using Reminders in iCal 5.0.1 on OS X Lion. I sync my iCal data with the Calendar app on my iPhone, via iTunes (not iCloud). The weird thing is, none of my Reminders data is syncing, either from my iPhone to my iMac, or from my iMac to my iPhone.
Does the Reminders data only sync via iCloud?

This doesn't help you, but I just recently started having the same problem, I just upgraded my 3G to 4.0 in iTunes so I don't know if that has anything to do with it but nothing on my phones calendar will sync to iCal. Events in iCal sync to the computer just fine thought. I hope someone can help me figure this out!

ICal sync prompts password which doesn't work

Dear support team,
Whenever my computer iCal syncs to my MobileMe, and thus to my iPhone, I get a prompt for a password that reads "Enter the password for your user account on 'End User's Computer'." When I type in my user account password it says "Sorry, you entered an invalid password. Please try again." I then type my keychain password and get the same message. I type my MobileMe password and get the same message, again. I have no other passwords to try. When I check iCal on my computer and phone, I see that the sync on iCal worked, regardless. Other than being annoying, the password prompt interupts FCP layoffs. So I set sync to manual, but forget to sync before I run to a location shoot with the incorrect unsynced info on my iPhone. I endeavor to find a solution.
One of the articles on this site instructed me to use Keychain First Aid in Keychain Access. To verify keychain issues, it prompts for my user login password, which works. It then says that there was an error, which I then repair. I test the hopeful result by syncing to iCalendar, but get the same interrupting password prompt. Another article instructs to unlock the "login" and "System" keychains, in Keychain Access, to do something there. I had unlocked and snooped around both, before consulting the sites, but now my user login password no longer works to unlock the "login" keychain, and neither do my other two passwords. Oddly, my user login password works just fine opening the "System" keychain My safari keychain locks and unlocks just fine with it's password. I go back to First Aid and see that my user password works just fine, and see that there are no errors in the keychain system, but I'm now afraid to shut down my computer fearing that I won't be able to login ever again. I'm thinking about following another discussion instruction to reboot the entire computer with the original Leopard OS disk, but that feels like a last resort headache. I could pack up the entire computer and bringing it to the nearest Apple Store Genius Bar, but that will take half a day.
I just followed a support instruction to reset the login keychain I was unable to open, restarted and tried the iCal sync with the same result as before. I can't think of anything else.
Any suggestions?
Thanks for taking the time to read this.

Just fixed it by going to MobileMe Sync Preferences and unchecking the box for keychain sync. No more password prompts that say "Invalid." Now the iCal on both computer and iPhone sync without interruption of work flow. I had originally checked the box to sync keychains so that I wouldn't have to type in ID's and passwords to enter sites on my iPhone. Big glitch in the system. Why have the box to check if it creates problems? Hopefully they'll fix it once, or if, they become aware.
Thanks for letting me think aloud.
Peace

IPod to iCal sync not working - FOLLOW UP

2 things...first sorry for the length of this post, I'm not sure how to say all of this shorter. Second, this is a follow up post to my earlier question, possibly to help others as well.
The problem I was having was that the iCal would sync events to the iPod, but not the other way around. After MANY restores/restarts, etc., it still wouldn't work. Off to the genius bar...tried many things, the last of which was connecting a store iPod to my Mac...still wouldn't sync. After I got home, I realized all the calendars from the store were now on my touch!
Next day, back to genius, was there for 3 hours with no resolution...tried everything, deleted iCal calendars, completely uninstalled, reinstalled, and rebuilt iTunes library, etc., store calendars still on iPod... Tried a few more things from home that night, no luck.
Back on Saturday for a replacement, which was given.
Back at home, restored last known good iCal calendars from Time Maching (God love time machine!)
Got home, store calendars not on this iPod, but the calendars themselves were in the list of possibles under "Info" tab in iTunes (don't know how else to say that.) Selected non-store calendars, and it synced only my stuff to the Touch, but still not from touch to iCal...
Tried a test account, and it worked! OK, so what's the difference between test account and mine? .Mac... For some reason, I tried to turn off .Mac syncing as a test, and it worked fine (the iCal/iPod thing)...replaced all .Mac info with stuff from the computer, turned syncing back on...bad calendars, etc. back, and iPod to iCal sync gone!
Long and short of it, I've killed my .Mac syncing and it works fine! The store calendars are no longer in the list on the "Info" tab, and everything else looks fine.
*If you can't get your iPod to sync with iCal, try killing your .Mac syncing and resetting sync preferences via iSync* (Applications/iSync then Apple+, for preferences).
I have no idea why this would have remained a problem since I replaced all .Mac info with stuff from my comp., but it was.
If you have any ideas why, I'd love to hear them. Thanks to all who offered suggestions to repair it the first time...

It was definitely worth a try, but it didn't work for my iPod touch.
What did work however was deleting BIRTHDAYS from my iCal (in Preferences / General). It's not the first time that Birthdays have caused me grief (ever since 10.5, .Mac Sync regularly gets its knickers in a twist over them) so I now just create a manual diary entry of my mum's birthday! It's a small price to pay for getting iPod and iCal to synch finally.

Entourage 2008 & iCal sync inaccurate free / busy status for events

On a campus using Exchange 2007, I am using Entourage 2008 and sync to iCal 3.0.2 (Leopard) via Sync Services in Entourage's preferences. Both Exchange 2007 and Entourage 2008 have only been installed in the last two months.
I have found that events which I mark as "free" in Entourage 2008 are changed to "busy" after a sync with iCal. The free / busy status is correct when the sync with Exchange takes place, but the status is incorrectly changed to busy every time the iCal sync takes place.
I need to put campus events, co-worker planned absences, and similar things on my calendar, but these items need to remain as "free" so that I can be scheduled during those times. This all worked correctly with Entourage 2004 and the older version of Exchange.
Does anyone know how to correct this behavior so that the free / busy status is not changed with a sync to iCal?

Sue,
Wish I could offer some good advice, but the easy syncing of iCal and Entourage 2008 so far has been impossible if not a nightmare.
When you go to import in Entourage and iCal is NOT listed as "another application", we are in HUGE trouble.
A real shame that in today's world of "New Media" and PDA's like iPhones and Blackberry that the two billionaires from Apple and MS did not provide us with easy and simple export/import/sync tools.
Maybe they should rename Office 2008 to Office 1984

ICal syncing shared calendars

I have 3 separate google calendars that I use often. I have them all shared with each other with r/w permissions to make things easier on the go.
The problem comes in with iCal syncing. I have all three calendars in iCal under separate accounts. sometimes, iCal will sync the shared calendars along with the individuals, making duplicates of them, and flooding me with unnecessary reminders.
The only problem is that iCal WILL NOT save the settings on the shared calendars. When it recognizes that accound has shared calendars, it will load them and give me reminders. Naturally I go and uncheck the calendar because I don't want it syncing. But then, when it refreshes, and finds the shared calendars, it doesn't remember the setting, and loads the shared calendars.
In simple talk, I just need to know how to get iCal to remember NOT to sync the shared calendars. Because it hasn't worked so far and its unbelievably frustrating...

ICal syncing issues

Hi - can anyone help me....
I have a Macbook Pro at home, an iMac at my office, and an iPhone in my pocket. I cannot, for the life of me, get the calendars to sync properly. On my laptop I have appointments that do not appear on my iPhone (very frustrating) and sometimes things that I add to my iCal on the iMac don't appear on either the iPhone or the Macbook. Also the reminders are a nightmare. Because I often leave both computers running all the time if a reminder appears on one of the machines it remains there until I am beside that machine to be able to either delay it or cancel it. Therefore this means that further reminders on other devices don't come up and sometimes I miss things I supposed to do.
Two more questions (sorry):
Is it possible to add postponement time options to the drop down that appears when a reminder comes up on the screen. The choices are somewhat limited, they go in nice stages up to two hours, then the next choice is one day! Sometimes I want a reminder in four or eight hours but to do that I need to just keep going in increments of two hours which occasionally leads to the problems referred to above.
Secondly, when a reminder comes up in the iPhone whilst it is being used (i.e. on a call) you have a choice of either close or open appointment. Does close mean that it just closes it from what you are doing or does that mean that it cancels the ongoing reminder? Similarly when you click the other option there seems to be no obvious way postpone the reminder for another few hours.......??
Sorry to be so long-winded

Since I installed the new OS X Lion, the iCal syncing through iTunes is not working properly.

Since I installed the new OS X Lion, the iCal syncing through iTunes is not working properly.
When I sync my MacBook Pro with my iPhone and iPad, the events set in both devices (iPhone & iPad) are not transfered to the iCal on my labtop. Events created in both devices are transfered and copied betwen them when I sync them with the iTunes app (through the MacBook Pro) but they are not trasfered/copied into the labtop (iCal). The events created in the iCal (on my MacBook) are tranfered to the devices as two events on same hour. One, with the description created on the iCal, and the other as a New Event (no description). This is happening since I installed the new OS X Lion last week.
I file a report and talked with an Apple Support Representative, but they could not help me. They have not receive any other reports on this matter. Do someone has confronted this issue. I need to find out how to solve this problem.

JAD

Hi Sydness,
Thank you very much for your help. It just worked fine. I have 4 macs in my company for 25 years (one is updated each year), and it is the first time I could not solve a problem for weeks. It gave me the opportunity to join this great community.

Sync iphone with ical, sync iphone with ical

How do i sync my iPhone with iCal on my Mac?
FYI I DO NOT want to use iCloud because MobileMe NEVER worked right for me.

Dear Ferd II,
Thanks for your pointout. It worked for me, though not the first time. I had my iTunes sync prefs set to sync automatically upon iPhone connection, but you can't access the "info" tab until it's connected. So my first time thru, I tried to click "replace calendar on iPhone one time from Mac" and then hit the "apply" button WHILE the sync was already in progress. It didn't like that, so I suggest to set those prefs in iTunes FIRST, then export and import the calenders along with the remove sync history via iSync, as per the instructions in the link you gave. My second time thru, using the prefs already preset, it all worked fine, and now the iPhone and iCal sync in both directions again.
Awesome.

Wireless iCal Sync?

On the iPhone, does iCal sync over the network (via wireless) with DotMac (as is the case on a Mac) or is a physical connection required to sync with a Mac/PC?

Please allow me to add my voice to the cry of people requesting wireless sync. This makes the iPhone functionally inadequate as a credible work phone. I don't want to go back to using Crack(berry). It's my only real complaint about my iPhone.
At a minimum please do something to replace the USB cable with wireless between the computer and the device. I'm constantly forgetting to leave my cable connected to my charger (at home) in the morning, and I can't sync my calendar all day.
Since I'm a software product manager by background, please allow me to suggest a small, prioritized functional description, as a way to express my prioritized list of wants. Hopefully it helps provide some insight into customer use cases.
Please, please, please.........
*Wireless sync - local*
1) The iPhone will perform a "standard" sync (calendar, contacts, images, audio) with a laptop using a "local" wireless transport (substituting transparently for the existing USB transport.) (Note that this description does not address wide-area sync over a wireless carrier network.)
2) End-user functionality remains the same with regard to the sync.
3) The first time a user wishes to pair the iPhone with a computer, an authentication, configuration, and pairing step must be performed (from within iTunes) while the iPhone is physically connected (via USB) to the computer with which the user wishes to sync.
4) The iPhone will use a network-appropriate mechanism of continually monitoring whether it has come into network connectivity with a computer to which it is paired. When it does, it prompts the user whether the user wishes to sync immediately.
4a) If the user responds yes, a sync begins
4b) If the user does not respond before the end of a timeout period, a sync either begins (or not, depending on a preference setting; the timeout can also be set in a preference).
4c) If either the sync is completed, or the user declines a sync request, the iPhone will again execute this discovery/sync-request/sync cycle periodically. (The period can be set in preferences. Default: 10 minutes).
*Network support:*
1) 802.11: The first priority is support for an 802.11 network. Syncs will only be completed when:
1a) The computer and the iPhone have been pre-paired (via iTunes, above).
1b) The iPhone has detected the 802.11 network, and the user has elected to join it, and the iPhone has successfully joined it.
1bi) (This means that when the iPhone detects an 802.11 network, it connects, and performs a lookup for the named computer with which it is paired (e.g. via Bonjour)).
1c) Syncs must be performed using encrypted IP connections (e.g. HTTPS) between the iPhone and the computer.
2) Bluetooth: The second priority is support for Bluetooth. Syncs will only completed when the computer and the iPhone have been previously paired via iTunes & the iPhone / computer link over Bluetooth has been paired (in the Bluetooth sense of the word Paired.)
