ICal won't update published calendar

I have a published calendar on .Mac and when I update in iCal, it won't update on my .Mac account. Also it shows that the published date is Dec 31, 1969. I have checked my date and time on system preferences. I have deleted and recreated this calendar, and it has not solved the problem. I have even unpublished and published several times, all to no avail. I have iCal 2.0.2 installed. Anyonw else come across this problem?
Thanks.

When you publish, is "Publish changes automatically" checked? This would explain why updates don't happen. Also in .Mac system preferences under the "Sync" tab, there is a choice of how often to sync. Even if this is set to "Automatically" the sync isn't instant. Check this setting. I don't know if it affects published calendars or not, but worth checking nonetheless.
I wonder if in the Date and Time system preference ("Date & Time" tab) you have "Set date & time automatically" Checked?
Mine publish fine, no problem: http://ical.mac.com/dancingbrook/Social
Still no solution for web To Dos though perhaps via a webDAV server? Try:

Also, can I assume you've tried trashing your ical preferences? ~/Library/Preerences/com.apple.iCal.plist

ICal won't update

All of a sudden iCal won't update my previously-published calendars -- which are hosted in my .mac account. I changed nothing; the problem started yesterday, before I had installed the recent updates and patches to QuickTime and the OS. Also, my iDisk is suddenly inaccessible. Is this a server-side problem of some sort?
I have already repaired permissions, restarted, and done all of the usual stuff.

Well, now everything seems to be working, so I suppose it was some kind of server-side issue.

ICal won't show any calendar in any account - reset?

Hi all,
After Google's update to their calendar systems, I've been experience some weired behaviour in my calendars (both OSX iCal and iOS Calendar).
So i thought of resetting both.
On the iPhone it all went well: I turned off both Google's and iCloud's calendar services, birthdays from Facebook and set up again successfully; now it works perfectly.
On the Mac, iCal failed, i.e. kept failing at syncing between Google's calendar server and iCal (iCloud seemed to work fine, though). So, after trying a couple of times to turn on and off the sync service of both iCloud and Google from Preferences and from iCal, I decided to remove all the files in ~/Library/Calendars and matching ~/Preferences/*iCal*. This resulted in both iCloud and Google's accounts not syncing anymore.
So I tried again to activate and deactivate both accounts using System Preferences. Fail.
Using iCal interface. Fail.
Fail: iCal keeps saying: updating calendars but many hours have passed now and nothing happens. The other times I reset iCal it took me like 30 seconds to have it work properly. Moreover, I don't think is a server side issue (like: too many trials, wait some time) because on the iPhone everything works pretty much ok.
How do I solve this issue? I'm thinking about a complete reset but I don't seem able to find the correct files to remove.
Thanks,
Riccardo

Mario,
You are welcome.
I am just curious, how can you tell the calendar is "incomplete"? And, if that is the reason it won't work, why is it listed on the apple website as being a valid calendar??
I subscribed to the calendar and looked for current entries in the iCal window. It had some erroneous data, and since it did not work for either of us, I concluded that your system was OK and the calendar was invalid.
The iCalShare calendar on the other hand had appropriate and up-to-date information.
If you desire you can provide iCal Feedback to inform Apple that the Red Wings calendar is not correct.

ICal won't automatically publish my changes

I have iCal (3.0.6) set to publish several of my calendars. When I first told it to publish, I DID click the "Publish changes automatically" check-box, however, iCal is simply not publishing any changes. When I right click on the calendar name, the "Publish" option is grayed out, whether there are changes or not. The only way I have found to publish the changes is to get info on the calendar, click "Change Location", then click Ok, and it will republish. This is quite annoying to have to do every time I make a change. Is there anything someone can think of that I can do to fix this?

Nick,
That is not the window (http://nickchich.com/stuff/getinfo.jpg) which I see when I use the iCal>Calendar>Change Location... menu choice.
This is what I see on my system simply using "Get Info":
This is what I see using iCal>Calendar>Change Location... menu choice.:
I am not sure what to say about the difference, or what influence it may or may not have with the problem.
How/When did you update to 10.5.6?

Changes in ical won't update my Exchange 2007 server

If I make a change in ical, it doesn't update my server calendar. It works the other way round. Can anyone help? Is it possible to make this work? My server support line tell me Exchange 2007 doesn't support ical.

bump... and please help. I'm really lost on this. My calanders say they are publishing to mobile me but they are not!

My iCal won't update to latest version and can't get to go to mobile me!

Okay I have been banging my head over this one. I need my iCal to sync via mobile me to my iphone 4 and ipad.... but it won't go to mobile me at all and the only way i can copy it to my other places is by directly hooking it to my computer and synching. ANYWAY I think that maybe this is because my iCal is version 3.0.8 and needs to be 4.0.4 right? but i go to system updates and see no update for it.... how do I get it updated? Everything I read says it should be in the system update? Help I have way to much to manage to not be sharing my calander on all my devises. Regretting ditching an old school planner.

bump... and please help. I'm really lost on this. My calanders say they are publishing to mobile me but they are not!

ICal does not update when calendar changes are made on all my other devices. Prompt that the server does not recognize the password, but the password is correct.

I have an iPhone 5, iPhone 5s, MacBook Air and recently bought an iPad Air. Since I synced my iPad, my iCal on my Macbook no longer updates and every time I open it, this window appears even if I didn't change or forget my password. So I tried changing my password and still this window appears. I hope someone can help me. Thanks!

As if by magic it is now working. I went away from the mac for a couple of hours, came back and it started to work. This is scary as I would expect this kind of action on a Mickysoft machine but not a Mac. Ho Hum - at least the problem has been sorted even if I don't know how.

ICal won't accept Google Calendar password

can't sync with my Google calendars anymore.
I have deleted the calendar accounts on my Mac.
Set up the 2-stpe passwords on Google.
Tried to create new accounts in iCal with my email address (is not a gmail account) and app specific password:
- used Automatic Account setup: get a "Server With Secure Communication Unavailable" error message
- used Google account type: it finds my account - asks me again right away for the password. I enter it. It creates the account but gives me the error icon and wants my password over and over without syncing.
- used CaDAV account type: I enter User Name, app specific password and for server address: google.com
again, it finds my account and wants passwword right away.
I have also tried to use for a server address the calendar URL (https://www.google.com/calendar/dav/[email protected]/[email protected]/user) - no go.
I have quit iCal after various account setups and reopeen - always the same problem:
Alert icon next to the calendar account and when I click on it, it wants me to enter the password. I do and nothing happens - no syncing.
When I go to Delegates of the created account, I get an error message saying: Sever did not recognize your user name or passwword....
I only use the app specific password. I do have a different user name than my email address - but I have tried to use both at different times - no go.
Any ideas?
Mac mini, OSX 10.8.5, iCal 6.0

I haven't tried your fix yet, but I was having the same problem with iCal and now I have it with everything. Google wants to link with OS X for a number of apps - fine - I enter my password - still fine - then there's another window: will you accept x,y, z? I click 'accept' and I get 'Google authentication failed'. I have changed my password three time just to make sure I am using the correct password, but no.
I do wonder if the problem is gmail - the password window opens with my gmail address (which I never use) filled in. I change it to my real email address and the password is fine until it gets to the 'accept' thing. Just appeared in notifications again: Enter you pssword for [my username] in Internet Accounts. I just can't be bothered to try again.

ICal won't update new email address

Hi,
I am having trouble updating my email address for iCal. It's stuck using an old address... so anytime I try to set the alarm the email just bounces.
I've tried updating my card in my address book several different times and deleted any and all duplicates but it just wont take. It keeps reverting back to the old address.
Anybody have any ideas how I might be able to shake loose that old address and get iCal to shift over to the new one.
Thanks much
Bob

Make sure your old address is not in Mail's Previous Recipients.

Itunes 9 won't update ipod calendar. How do I download Itunes 8.x?

The most cooperative itunes 9 will be about updating my ipod calendars is -- it offerred to erase all calendars on my ipod. Would someone from Apple be kind enough to post a copy of itunes 8.whatever so that it can be downloaded for those of us who are interested only in reliable operation -- not movies & tv shows and all that jazz?
Stan Wilson

I trashed itunes 9 & downloaded 8.2.1 & it has the same problem. I reloaded the ipod software and that didn't help either,

ICal notifies of updates on calendar I am not "showing"

I am subscribed to an iCal at work. I only "show" the subscribed iCal when I need to look at it for a specific reason.
Otherwise, the calendar on my iPhone 4S is hidden. Everything is fine & peachy.
Since upgrading to iOS6, the subscribed iCal that is not suppose to showing is now sending me notifications on my calendar. Since a lot of people use the subscribed iCal and make changes all the time, I am getting notifications all the time as well, which is rather irritating.
Is there anyway to work around this? Or get it to the way it was besides deleting the iCal, which really isnt an option for me.
Thanks,
Allen.

Ideally you should copy the complete iTunes library structure - typically located at C:\Users\username\Music\iTunes - from the old computer to the new one. It should look like this:
Assuming that your music and other media files are all contained within the iTunes Media folder and its subfolders you can move this iTunes folder and all its content from your old system to the corresponding location on the new one (i.e., place it in C:\Users\username\Music). If you've already installed and run iTunes on the new system, overwrite the files and folders already created in that location - this assumes that you've not added any content on the new system, i.e., you are just migrating your library from the old system to the new one, not merging different libraries on the two).
Then, just to be sure you are picking up the right library information, hold down the Shift key while starting iTunes on the new system. You'll get this prompt:
Click Choose Library.. then navigate to and select the iTunes Library.itl file within the folders you just copied across. Click OK - you're complete library - media, artwork, playlists, etc. - should now be available on the new system.
One further benefit of this approach - because you have replicated the library in full any iDevices will see this as "the same" library as you had on the old system, and sync operations will continue to work without getting a message about your iPod / iPhone being erased. You should also make sure that you create and maintain a backup of your library (the full folder structure as illustrated above) as a safeguard against any future cause of data loss.

Lightroom 4 won't update Published collections to Smugmug

When I go to Publish photo's to Smugmug, it gives me this error:
An internal error has occurred:html passed to JSON:decode0:<html><body><h1>400 Bad request</h1>
Your browser sent an invalid request </body></html>
I haven't had any problems publishing to Smugmug until now.
Are there any fixes out there for this error?

Hi mikey,
LR never writes to original files, and it does not do sidecars for videos.
So in order to view your LR adjustments outside LR you need to use a format which LR can write to, like H264.

ICal won't publish calendar to mobileMe... ideas?

I've used iCal for years but since the changeover to me.com I can't get my iCal calendars to publish. When I click on "Publish calendar" it says it's published successfully, but when I click on the visit page button I get "page not found" error message.
Anybody have any ideas?
MJM

bnance,
...are you saying your published calendar can currently be accessed from your ical.me.com link and that just ours is not working or was your answer a theoretical one?
Mine works as advertised. I did have to unpublish, but that was in July. The calendar has auto published without problems since that time.
The common clue that I notice between the OP and your system is that neither has been updated to the most current version of OS X available for the Tiger/Leopard. I would therefore advise updating these systems using the appropriate Combo Update (OS X 10.4.11/OS X 10.5.5).
Good Luck.

Ical won't publish two different calendars

Hi
Is it possible to publish two separate calendars at once in ICAL to one .mac account? I am a adjunct professor and I teach at two different schools (MCC & ECSU) I have made a separate calendar for each school. I unchecked the ESCU calendar and checked the MCC calendar but when I publish only one only the ECSU calendar is showing up. The MCC calendars won't publish at all. Should I just merge the two and publish both? I'd like them separate because the students will get confused.
Any suggestions?
Jane

Jane,
Welcome to Apple Discussions.
Is it possible to publish two separate calendars at once in ICAL to one .mac account?
No, "at once" is not possible, but you should be able to publish (one-at-a-time) individual calendars which are displayed in your Calendars source pane.
Each published calendar should have a unique .mac URL address such as:
http://ical.mac.com/yourusername/MCC
http://ical.mac.com/yourusername/ESCU
Checking or unchecking a calendar in the source pane has no bearing on the publish capability, it only adds/removes the calendar from the display window.
You must publish each calendar individually as a separate calendar.

Publish iCal to a new Google calendar account

I recently was assigned a Google email and calendar account for a work group. The email system is administered by the work group and it is not a personal Google account; however, I have a password and login for my email and calendar. How can I publish my iCal account to this Google calendar account and then keep it in sync, so that when I change my iCal appointments, they are updated in the Google calendar?
Thanks for any help you can lend this rookie.

Hello Stephen
In order to change the command timeouts used in Visual Studio 2013 you will need to change the following registry setting:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\VisualStudio\12.0\SQLDB\Database\QueryTimeoutSeconds
You can increase it to 300 (5 min) to see if that helps. You can also set it to 0 (infinite) so it won't time out on the client.
For SSMS and the command line tools, the registry setting is:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\VisualStudio\10.0\SQLDB\Database\QueryTimeoutSeconds
