Ical to Cellphone?

I want to send my ical to my cell phone. Ive searched these forums and ical help and cant get anything. I have a samsung a900. It says "this devices is not supported by isync". I also tried to export my calendar to my phone and it said the file wasnt supported. For such an easy thing to do, why is this so difficult? Can anyone help?

I think you will find that it is a Samsung issue, not a Mac issue. If you are using Bluetooth, try browsing the Bluetooth discussions, where such matters often appear.

Ical to Cellphone via bluetooth or whatever...?

Ok - this is really getting to me...
I have a samsung a900 "blade" cellphone. I can get my address book to my cell just fine using bluetooth - but why not my ical? I have no idea on where to start or whatever. I have tried to export my calendar then send it to my phone and it says their was an error. The phone also isnt supported to use isnyc. But if i can get address book to work - why not ical?? Can anybody help me? Any ideas? Anybody accomplish this yet? Is it even possible?

I used iSync , http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/apple/isync.html , to connect to my phone. That allowed me to sync address book and calendar in one step. Doesn't matter if you have a .Mac account, I don't. It works with out it.

Can't see my events in iCal

Hi all,
maybe someone can help me with the following scenario.
I synchronize my Sony Ericsson cellphone via iSync to iCal. Afer installing new software on my cellphone, all data got lost (of course). As I wanted to synchronize my data to the cellphone again, I realised, that only birthday events are displayed in my iCal. I can't find my events, even I do a search. The weird thing ist, that iSync can synchronize my events, although the events are not in iCal??? Can anybody explain this to me? Where are my events?
Is it possible, that there is a relation to migration to leopard? Well, this happened shortly afert leopard was released, but maybe I didn't realise it, because I use iCal only for backup my cellphone data. And I can see events from 2007, for example.
The other thing is, that events sometimes get lost. But one step after another ...
Hope you understand my problem.
Thanks in advance!

Hi Bernard,
thanks for your answer. I've tried it once again, because I had to set up my cellphone once again. At this time, the cellphone calendar and ical were empty. I did a synchronisation via isync. My events are in my cellphone calendar now!!!?
Before I did the synchronisation, I added a few events to my ical. These were not synchrinized!!! These events are in ical now, but not in my cellphone. It's weird.
Is there a possibility of a second ical-library or such?

ISync not finding Calendars in iCal

To begin, I have "upgraded" to 10.5.3.
I just attempted to sync my cellphone with my Mac, and noticed that iSync was not recognizing any of my calendars in iCal. When I clicked on the Calendars box in iSync, I got the following message:
No writable calendar was found
Before you can synchronize your calendars, you need to open a calendar application that supports synchronization and create at least one writable calendar.
Well, iCal should qualify, and it has worked in the past. Any idea why iSync cannot find my calendars?

I had the same problem. I found a solution in iCal's Help section, in a support article entitled "Mac OS X 10.5: Resetting the SyncServices folder".
After following the instructions in the support article (see below), the problem was fixed on my computer.
Following is the relevant text from the support article.
Reset the SyncServices folder with these steps in Mac OS X 10.5:
Open iSync.
Choose Preferences from the iSync menu.
Click Reset Sync History.
If this does not resolve your issue, or if you are unable to open iSync, follow these steps:
In the Finder, choose Utilities from the Go menu.
Open Terminal.
In the Terminal window that opens, type or paste the following command on a single line:
/System/Library/Frameworks/SyncServices.framework/Versions/A/Resources/resetsync .pl full
Press Return.
When the operation is complete, quit Terminal.

Year-at-a-glance View in iCal

Once again, I am filling out next year's year-at-a-glance wall calendar and wish I had this view in iCal. With today's screens, a year-at-a-glance view shouldn't be difficult to implement and would be very useful. My favorite layout has 12 rows (one for each month, January at the top) and blocks for each day running from left to right with weekends shaded. When is Apple going to improve iCal? or at least enable others to make such improvements?

I can't believe this, I finally get round to organizing myself and ical doesn't do a year view.
I have hunted online for some way to make this happen and have ended up making a pdf of a printout to be able to see it.
This can only be a temp solution, as my diary changes a lot and printing/pdf is not very elegant or efficient or even that easy to read quickly.
In my online search I have found posts requesting this as far back as 2003, and 6 years is to long to wait for something that surely must be such a simple solution.
I'm also stunned by the lack of plugin/widget/app solutions from 3rd party developers, I would definitely pay a a buck or 2 for something to let me do this well within ical,
And If I want it you can be sure there are at least another 100,000 who would also pay, maybe we could get the guy who wrote the ifart app for iphone to write it for us, about 2000 people a day were buying that at 99 cents a pop in the run up to christmas.
Apple should embarrassed by this.
If anyone knows the solution please post it.

Is there a way to open two months at the same time in iCal?

I have recurring events for every month in 2009 and want to replicate them in 2010. I do not want to just extend the stop date because there will be subtle changes to the 2010 items that I do not want changed in the 2009 versions. I would ideally like to open Jan 2009 and Jan 2010 next to each other and copy the 2009 event to the 2010 calendar (the appointment copy does not copy the recurrence info which is good). Is there a way to show either two instances of iCal running or 2 month windows?
Thanks!

Hi,
If you activate iCal's Debug menu, you should find it has a 'New Calendar Window' option (Cmd-L). It is a bit of a knack to cutting and pasting correctly between windows.
Best wishes

Mini Month View in iCal

Can't say I like the new iCal running on Lion. One feature that I can't seem to find is the mini month view. I did away with my paper calendar for viewing full months because of the mini month calendars on my Macs.
Is that functionality gone? I've searched preferences and menus and can't find a way to turn it on.
So many things about this new iCal that I find I do not like. I sure hope updates are coming to fix it.
CJ

Last thing about iCal which I think could be fixed, is that it would be easier to type down events and making line-breaks if one whouldn't have to hold 'Alt' in while doing it. I make line-breaks much more often than I finish editing an event (in which case you just press enter or click outside the event you were editing). It would be better to press 'alt' + 'enter' in order to finish editing an event, and reserve the action of just pressing 'enter' for line-breaks. This, btw, was also this way in iCal 4.
Ok, last last thing: in the preferences of iCal one can add a default alert to all new timed events and invitations and one can specify how many minutes before one wants to be alerted. I do not want to add a default alert to all new events/appointments, but I would like to be able to specify the default number of minutes put on all new alerts that I put on events. It seems quite intuitive to me that the default number of minutes one can specify for every alarm added to events by defult (if that option is checked in the preferences), should be the defult number of minutes set to alarms one manually puts on events, in stead of the '15 minutes before' default that is in the system and which seems to be unchangable.
If it says '0 minutes before the start time' there, then all alerts that I manually put on events should have this value put to zero by default!

Printing list view in ical

I use mail and ical for everything now. Everything is fine except When I want to print the "list view" which shows my “to dos”. It displays the URL the “do to” is attached to in mail. I use notes often in mail and enter to dos in the notes so they will have URL links. The link only becomes a nuisance when I want to print, otherwise it’s very useful.
Why would the long URL paths display when in print view???!!!!! It doesn’t make any sense.
Is there anything I can do?
Thank you

ecernek,
There is no event list option on iCal like the one on the iPhone.
That number means that you have an event invitation. Use iCal>View>Show Notifications to choose what to do with the notification.

Weekly "List View" in iCal

Hello - my family has recently converted to Mac, and my wife and I have been long-time Outlook users in our workplaces...
Trying to help my wife get her calendar data to iCal - one of the few things that we miss from Outlook is the "Week" view, which shows like Outlook's (7-Day view), which has a large grid of the 7 days in the current week, and all events displayed in a text-based "list" format, and clearly displaying numerical start and end times, rather than the graphical "block" method of iCal's default Week view.
The Month view on iCal comes close, but it is rather cramped when you want a closer-in look, and also omits end time.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!

Event List view in iCal?

I would love to have an Event List view in iCal like I do on the calendar on my iPhone. Is there such a thing? The particular reason for wanting it (this time) is that one of the calendars in the ON MY MAC list has a number in a oval to the right.
I believe this is trying to tell me that there is a new event that I need to do something about. Problem is, I don't know where to find it.

List view in iCal on my iPod touch is corrupted

The 'list view' seems to be all wonky in Calendar on my iPod touch.
The dates for a given day that's displayed don't make sense:
i.e. Sunday Oct. 27 2030 followed by Saturday July 14 2001 followed by Tuesday Jan. 16 2001 are listed in consecutive order instead of today, tomorrow and next day (with correct dates).
Also, the 'events' given for each day listed don't make sense and are often duplicated.
The 'day' and 'month' views however, seem to be ok and not corrupted. The 'list' field in the month view also seems fine ?
Has anybody experienced this ? Very frustrating, since I like the list view.
I make most of my entries/changes to iCal on our main desktop (iMac 24") then sync. to my iPod. The list view seems ok on the desktop.
Any help greatly appreciated.
ps. not sure if the problem corresponded with an upgrade of the Ipod software to OS 3.1 from 2.x....

Can I show a color bar instead of a color bullet in iCal Monthly view for all my events in all calendars?

In the Monthly view of iCal the only events that show a color bar in the event is the Birthday Calendar. All other events in all my other calendars only show a color bullet next to the event (unless I click on that event which then shows as a color bar). I would like to know if it is possible for all the calendar events to have a color bar in the monthly view instead of just that tiny color bullet.

Greetings Judith,
Before making any attempts at deleting calendar data, backup what you have just in case:
Click on each calendar on the left hand side of iCal one at a time highlighting it's name and then going to File Export > Export and saving the resulting calendar file to a logical location for safekeeping.
iCal has an automated function located in iCal > Preferences > Advanced > Delete events "X" days after they have passed. By typing in a value for days you can tell iCal to delete all events before that time frame.
Example:
Today is 4-16-2012.
If I wanted to delete all events prior to 1 year ago (4-16-2011) I would type in "365" for the number of days.
Once you type in the number of days you want kept in iCal, close the preferences and then quit iCal.
Re-open iCal and check to see if the events are gone. If not you may want to leave it open for several minutes and then quit again.
Once the events are removed go back to iCal > Preferences > Advanced > Delete events "X" days after they have passed and make sure the check mark is removed to prevent future deletion.
Hope that helps.

Weekly view in iCal.

In iCal you can se what month and what date it is but not what week. You can look in weekly view but it dosen't say the number of the week.
Example: Im a student and goes out on field study week 49. I want to be able to post in iCal all that week that im going on field study. When I look in monthly view I could se "ahh, week 48 normal study and week 49 field study".
To put it simply just ad the week numbers to each week in iCal.
This problem also regards to iPhone.

Good find Kristian!
Perhaps this is a more region specific usage?
I was born and raised in the U.S. and neither at University nor in business have I ever had someone use a week number / day number within the calendar year as a point of reference. This could also be the fields in which I've worked (HealthCare (US Calendar), Accounting (Fiscal Calendar), IT (Corporate Fiscal Calendar)). Perhaps in other countries or professions this is more common? Or maybe it's just me
If this is a feature that you would like to see added to iCal consider submitting feedback: http://www.apple.com/feedback/ical.html
Cheers.

Weird View in iCal

In iCal, I have it set up in my preferences to display 7 days a week and to scroll in weeks. But It shows 6 days a week and changes views every time I select a different day of the same week. It's not affecting any of my data, but it's strange and it's making it difficult for me to set up my alendar the way I;m used to it.
It all started when I first installed Snow Leopard. At first when I would change the preferences around, things would change to the way I like the temporarily, and then if I moved two weeks forward, iCal would freeze and shut down. But know it's consistently in the wrong view.
Any ideas on what might fix this?

I have an odd one too. Yesterday I allowed an automatic update to OS 10.5.8 (Leopard) and thereafter iCal is acting strange. I open iCal in month view and all looks normal. I click a month ahead and that all looks normal....Thanksgiving is the third Thursday in November, etc. I then click the left (previous) arrow and nothing appears to happen. Still November. If I click "previous again it goes to September but Thankgiving is still showing. The oddest part is that it looks like two or more months are showing at once. I can sort of see through some of the appointments from November to a little more bold appointments that I had in September. Very strange.
Any ideas?
Cheers,
Mac
