ICloud Calendar & Contacts

How can I upload a calendar file (ics) to iCloud? Also, is there a way to download all my contacts in iCloud so I can make a backup copy in case iCloud somehow loses it?

Go to Contacts at iCloud.com. Select the All Contacts group. Hit command-a to select all. Click on the cogwheel icon at bottom left and choose Export vCard. A vCard containing all your contacts will be exported to your default download location.
The Calendar at iCloud does not provide importing of .ics files - you would have to import them to iCal (assuming you have a Mac with Lion) and sync them to iCloud.

You can't, there is no connection between the services, use one or the other.

How do I access iCloud Calendar & Contact data from a pre-Lion iMac?

How do I access iCloud Calendar data from my pre-Lion iMac?
Hardware Overview:
Model Name:          iMac
Model Identifier:          iMac4,1
Processor Name:          Intel Core Duo
System 10.7 is not available for this iMac.
Since MobileMe has died, and my other iMac is running 10.7 Lion, iCloud is now the fact in Apple internet data sharing.
I'd like to keep my Address Book (now Contacts in 10.7) and Calendar in sync with my pre-10.7 iMac. How is this done?
Many Thanks,
PBH

A nice idea, but ≈$100 for far more than I need. It feels like overkill.
I was thinking something more like a simple CalDAV connection.

ICloud calendar/contacts sync on PC via Outlook 2010 - clumsy or me?

I recently added iCloud to sync calendar, contacts and tasks from Outlook 2010 on my PC to my iPhone 4s.
Generally it works well. If I add a contact on the iPhone, the PC Outlook syncs it fairly quickly via the cloud and works in reverse as well. Exactly what I was hoping for.
After a week or so, I noticed a few irregularities which I am confused about. Not in syncing the data but what it did to my PC Outlook 2010 calendar.
In installing the iCloud sync, I saw that iCloud copied my calendar items to another calendar named iCloud calendar and deleted all of the calendar items from the "default" Outlook calendar. But they are not really deleted from the "default" calendar. I guess I was not expecting this level of intrusion by iCloud. Not a huge issue but I am still getting some alerts from the iCloud calendar and the "normal" Outlook calendar which is apparently duplicating the alerts. This is issue 1. In Outlook 2010 you can check which calendar you want to see and not include some calendars if you prefer. I have defaulted to ony checking the iCloud calendar and not the default Outlook calendar.
The other issue is since the iCloud calendar sort of replaced the "default" calendar in Outlook 2010, the Outlook menu structure defaults to the Outlook default calendar and contacts (which is now empty) and so I have to constantly change "which contact store or calendar store to look into" in Outlook to do many functions such as find people in contacts, email addressing (using the Outlook "recent people you have emailed cache") which is a bit of a pain and seems to be necessary far to often.
So, I am asking the community; do I need to make some other setting options (IPhone 4s or Outlook 2010 on the PC) to return to a more automatic selection of the iCloud contact and calendar store so that I don't have to constantly keep changing the "look into" option?
Maybe to confuse this even further, I have a new iPad 2 which I would like to keep the calendar and contacts synched via iCloud.
I hope I have articulated this well enough as the issue seems to be a bit complicated to describe.
Thx DD

I had the EXACT same problem and heard about CodeTwo Sync for iCloud. I downloaded and installed the 30-day trial version. So far I love it! After 30 days it reverts to only syncing the Calendar for free. Its $10 to buy the license key to keep it syncing Calendar and Contacts and Tasks. I'm NOT syncing Tasks with it because I've been using Toodledo and it works well with Categories (Contexts in Toodledo) for doing the GTD system, although I'm looking into other ways I may be use iCloud for my Outlook Tasks WHILE MAINTAING CATEGORIES.
I'm probably going to buy the CodeTwo Sync for iCloud within the 30 day trial. It does exactly what you want it to do: syncs the iCloud account folder with your default Outlook modules/folders - AUTOMATICALLY - without having to do anything (clicking, etc.). THAT's what I'M talkin' about!

Simple iCloud Calendar & Contacts question

I know this issue is posted many times. Nothing seems to work for me.
We have an iMac, an iPhone 5, an iPhone 4s, and an iPad 2.
My iPhone 5 is the only device that seems to reflect all calendar entries made from the other devices.
I've set and re-set iCloud so many times on each device I have no idea where to turn from here.
On my iPhone 5, I can see my wife's iPhone 4s calendar.
But her 4s calendar, or our iMac's calendar doesn't reflect all entries that are on my iPhone 5 calendar!
I swear I have all relevant calendars checked on each device.
We don't really want our separate calendars or contacts - - we share all. We just can't get all to display on every device. All devices are using the same iCloud account (my original one).
Is there a source (book or other) that would give me the assured way to set this seemingly simple request up across all devices, including troubleshooting steps for people that have their devices in these oddly different states?
Thanks in advance. I've been afraid of iCloud since inception for fear that one of us may inadvertently delete the other's entries. I'm no longer worried so much about that as I am that we can't see each other's entries on any single calendar.

Okay I seem to have fixed half of my issue. New calendar items are showing up on all devices. At least one new test item per device did; that's been the extent of my testing.
However the other half of my problem still exists. That is, any prior existing items on calendars aren't synced to the others.
For example, a Nov 22 appt is still only showing on the iphone 5 calendar that originated it, before we switched to iCloud sync (post Mavericks). I'm pretty sure I set up every device to MERGE with iCloud. Regardless, this Nov 22 entry only shows on my iphone 5 where I entered it about a month ago. It does not appear on our iMac, iPad or iPhone 4S.

Migrating iCloud calendar & contacts to Maverick Server

As I couldn't find a solution to my problem I am hoping to get some help from the community:
I am looking for a way to migrate my conyacts, calendar and reminder data ( currently kept on iCloud ) into Maverik Server.
Perhaps somebody who has done it can give me a clue.
Thanks in advance.

O.K. that's possible but one has to do that seperately for each calendar. Lengthy process.
Perhaps there is an easier way ?

HT204053 If I add a new iCloud account to my iPhone 5, will I be "locked out" because I'm using a new Apple ID to do it? Do I have to use a new Apple ID to create a new iCloud account? Want to separate calendars/contacts for 2 iPhones now using 1 iCloud a

If my husband add a new iCloud account to his iPhone 5, will he be "locked out" because he's using a new Apple ID to do it? Does he have to use a new Apple ID to create a new iCloud account? He set up his phone using my Apple ID because we didn't know any better. Now we want to separate calendars/contacts, but are afraid of the 90-day lockout.

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
You can change the Apple ID without any problem. On his device, go to Settings > iCloud > Delete account and login with his Apple ID so he'll get his information. iCloud needs an Apple ID, so if he hasn't got one, he must create an Apple ID > http://appleid.apple.com
When you delete the iCloud account, all the information will be deleted, so I recommend you to turn off each service before deleting iCloud

How can I copy iCloud calendar and contact back to Outlook personal folder?

After I install iCloud control panel for Windows 7 and turn on, it copied everything calendar and contact into iCloud and delete everything from Outlook Personal Folder. I DONT WANT THIS!!! How can I copy iCloud calendar and contact back to Outlook personal folder?

Hi
If you go to the web site of iCloud and then to contacts there is a button left bottom where you can export your contacts as cvs files and reimport them in outlook

ICloud: I can't set a check mark at calendar, contacts and mail. Why?

iCloud: I can't set a check mark at calendar, contacts and mail. Why?

I'm afraid so. The iCloud control panel is only compatible with Outlook 2007 or later.
iCloud system requirements:

However, you should still be able to add your iCloud mail account manually in Outlook using the server information.

Outllok 2010 does not default to iCloud contacts or iCloud Calendar

When using Outlook 2010, when I co to contacts, it always defaults to the Outlook Data file. How do I get it to default to my iCloud contacts? Same for Calendar.
I have already triued moving "up" the iCloud contacts and calendar to the top of the list. This does not help.

Welcome to the Apple Community limill.
    1.    First check that all your settings are correct, that calendar syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
    2.    Make sure the calendars you are using are in your 'iCloud' account and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud account (you can do this by clicking/tapping the calendar button in the top left corner of the application ), non iCloud calendars will not sync.
    3.    If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your calendars are in the iCloud account, you might try unchecking calendar syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling calendar syncing settings.

How can I get rid of duplicate birthdays in icloud Calendar, especially when there are no Contacts in the iCloud? Case ID: 365381395

How can I get rid of duplicate birthdays in icloud Calendar, especially when there are no Contacts in the iCloud? Case ID: 365381395

Found the answer myself while helping to set up iPhone. It is simple when you know how. Before signing out of iCloud to sign in again and restore the link to Photo Stream I had opted to copy iCloud contacts to the Mac. When I signed in again this created two iCloud views which can be seen in Contacts Preferences. I just disabled one of them. Not brave enough to attempt removal but I gues this would work too.

Can 2 iCloud accounts share same Calendar, Contacts, and Photos? (family)

iPhone #1 (Husband)
iPhone #2 (wife)
iMac (Both)
We do not want to share the same email or reminders... email is personal, but we would like to share photos, contacts, and calendars. Can two iCloud accounts be shared with the same iMac and by doing so the iMac syncs the two accounts in Calandar, Contacts, Photos and merges the two accounts to the one program resulting in both phones containing the same Calendars, Contacts, and Photos???
Any ideas, tips, tricks, or suggestions would be appreciated! Thanks!

I posted pretty much the same question on the forum a week [How to share contacts in iCloud?] and did mention that there the subscribe functionality for Calendar (replacement of iCal) works fine, but the issue with Contacts is becoming more critical (as Apple gave up the MobileMe support)... I did increment the count of 'I have the same question' hopefully increasing sight of Apple support team...
