Icloud/google calendar?

How can I have my calendar events saved automatically in my icloud calendar instead of my google calendar (which is the case now)?

http://help.apple.com/icloud/#/mm6b1a8694 say's:
Sharing works as follows:
Public calendars can be shared with anyone. To access public calendars, visitors need to use Calendar (or iCal with OS X v10.7.5) on a Mac, Microsoft Outlook on a Windows computer, or any other app that supports the iCalendar file format.
A public calendar can’t be edited by anyone but the calendar owner (the creator).
Private calendars can be shared with other iCloud users.
Participants can view the calendar using iCloud Calendar, Calendar (or iCal with OS X v10.7.5) on a Mac, Microsoft Outlook on a Windows computer, or the Calendar app on iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.
I'm not 100% sure, but I think your husband would have to create an iCloud account to subscribe to private iCloud calendars then use something like SmoothSync (from Google Play) for them to appear on his phone. I can't test this so I can't be sure, but I know SmoothSync is required to view iCloud calendars on Android - I just don't know whether it applies to privately shared ones too.
You're probably better off just using public sharing. The calendars aren't publicly accessible on the web, it's just the calendar URL (which is obscure so can't be stumbled upon or guessed) doesn't require a password to subscribe to.

How do I get iCloud calendars to show up on my Google calendar?

I didn't notice until today, but my iCloud calendars (which I can view fine in my iPhone 4S and iPad 2) won't show up in my Google calendar (which I open from my PC laptop). I've researched and researched, but it seems impossible. Is there a way to view my iCloud calendars in Google?

What TV are you using? How is it connected? Are you on the right input? Have you tried a different cable or port?

Share iCloud calendar with Google Calendar

Ok, so I'v moved all my contacts, email and calendars to iCloud and everything is wonderfull.
I share a few calendars with my girlfriend and she is sharing her study calendar with me.
We have a shared calendar set up, where we enter when our son is in daycare and we have another shared calendar with things we do together.
Now comes the tricky question:
How do we share our icloud calendar showing our sons day in the daycare, with our parents who don't have any Apple devices and only uses google calendar?
Reason for this is, we live in the same city, and sometimes they want to go and pick up our son. With a shared calendar like that, they would just be able to write a note in their synced google calendar saying that they are going to pick up our son, and we would see it in our synced icloud calendar.
Also, my girlfriend only have an old-school cellphone. She is now finnaly getting a smartphone through her work.
Only problem I see comming with this, is that her phone is not going to be an iPhone.
So how do we keep sharing all our icloud calendars with her on a windows phone 7.5?
Is the Apple ecosystem finaly getting so clamped up, that it won't allow users who happen to have frinds or family without i-products, to share their life with them?
As everything stands now, I'm getting the feeling that Apple demands me to buy Apple products to all my family and frinds, just so that we can still interact and plan our different lives through shared calendars on icloud.
Can this really be right?
I hope I'm just missing something. Cause I really thought, that icloud would be this outstanding product which would make my cloud-life the easiest thing in the world. Instead, it really seems to be a step back, in the cloud evolution.

Thanks for your answer..
it dosn't really solve my problem, since I'm not interested in only sharing a calender on the web.
My wish is to sync my calendar with friends and family that are not using icloud, and not using apple product at all.
For example: My girlfriend, how finaly is getting a smartphone, needs some way to add and edit our shared calendar, so that we can both enter and edit appointments.
Same goes for my parrents, that whants to be able to set appointments of when they want to pick up our son at the daycare.
All this is possible, and has been possible for ages with other online calendar systems, so why does apple take a step down the evolutionstaires by disabling such a great feature?
Though MobileMe was not perfect, it did infact make this possible as I remember, so why can't this be done in iCloud?
You can subscribe to CalDav on your i-device, but you can't share one with friends, in what world is that logic?

How can I move my Google calendar to iCloud calendar???

On the iPhone I sync the calendar and mail (without contacts) with google. I want to move the current Google calendar to iCloud and start syncing with it from now on.
I could export google calendar to an ical file but iCloud calendar doesn't have an import option. I don't have an Apple computer.
So, how can I back up all my google calendar entries into iCloud???
Thanks!

So I solved this today.......I really wanted to switch everything over to iCloud calendar from Google Calendar (and had entries since 2008).....The easiest way to do this is using iCal on a Mac. The problem was I don't have a Mac. So I went down to my local Apple store (I guess you could use a friend's or work Mac as well). I asked them if I could use a Mac for a bit to get my iCloud calendar to work and was allowed to do so. Here's what I did....
I opened my google calendar on the store Mac's safari (or maybe it was firefox, I don't remember now)
I went into settings and found the export section. Then I exported all my calendars onto the desktop in a Zip file(I have 13 of them!)
Next I opened iCal on the Mac. I added 13 different calendar titles (I used the same titles from my Google calendar) under the add calendar setting (this would be so much easier if I didn't have so many different calendars)
Next I imported each calendar from the Zip file into their respective calendar titles(again this would be easy with fewer calendars but even with 13 of them it only took 10 minutes)
Finally I went to network settings, opened up iCloud setting and put in my user name and password. All my calendars uploaded to my iCloud calendar.
I opened iCloud calendar on safari and logged in. All my calendars were there. They weren't in the same colors as the one's on my google calendar but all of it was there (More on this later).
To finish up I deleted my iCloud account settings under network settings, deleted all the iCal entries, and logged off of the the iCloud and Google calendars (don't want anyone in my stuff)
When I got home I logged in to iCloud and changed the calendar colors to suit my preferences.
Sorry this was a bit long winded....all in all it took about 20-25 minutes and was really easy

How do you put an iCloud calendar online so that people can see it like you can a Google calendar?

I manage the calendar solution for the school I work at. We all, teachers and students, will get iPads about a month from now, and I'm trying to set up calendars for when those show up. Since every person has different needs, I'm in the process of creating a different calendar for each discrete activity, and the people in charge of the activities will have access to edit the events on those calendars. Our website has links for students to subscribe to calendars that relate to the events they are involved in, which is good, but I also need all the events to be visible on a calendar so that people outside the school can see what is going on without subscribing to every single calendar. I tried using Google calendar, but they are pretty rubbish when it comes to syncing with Apple's calendars on iCloud. While iCloud does a good job of reading calendars hosted on Google, I really need the calendars to be hosted on iCloud so that teachers can share authoring privileges on their iPads. Initially I couldn't even get Google calendar to read my calendars, and had to use this website to even get my calendars into Google calendar in the first place. Now that it's connected, the Google calendar won't update the school calendars when I update them, leading to an outdated calendar showing up on the website. The whole point of putting calendars online is that we have seamless instant communication, and Google's bungling it up.
In short, is there another website I could use to display my calendars from iCloud Calendar in an iframe on the school's website?
You can take a look at the Google calendar embedded on the website here.
The subscriptions to the iCloud calendars can be found here.
Please help.

Ah, I see what you mean. My apologies for the RTFM response without testing it myself first.
I think iCloud shares calendars using the CalDAV standard. This means that you'll have to open the link using a client that can understand this. I just tested it with Novell GroupWise at work and it worked fine. I suspect it might also work with Outlook. I tried to add the calendar in Google Calendar by clicking under Other Calendars, Add by URL, but that did not work, so Google Calendar may not be a CalDAV client. For more information see
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MobileMe#MobileMe_Mail_Beta
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CalDAV
http://wiki.davical.org/w/CalDAV_Clients
http://caldav.calconnect.org/implementations/clients.html
If anyone is aware of a website that allows you to see public CalDAV calendars, please let us know. That would be useful information. I tried briefly looking at http://www.icalshare.com, since that site seems to be somehow related to how Apple shares the public calendars, but I was not able to figure out how to view my public calendar there. I think perhaps you need to create an account there and then it might let you. But even then the views they have of public calendars at that site at static views updated once per day. For a live view of the calendar you'll still need to use a proper CalDAV client, I think. So, once again, are there any CalDAV web clients?

Can you sync an iCloud calendar to a Google calendar?

Hi all. I have searched the forum for an answer to my question but haven't found one. Lots of variations though!
I have an iCloud calendar that I set up on my MacBook. I can access the calendar on my iPad, iPhone etc and all is good. I have shared this calendar with some friends who also use iOS devices. They can access the calendar via there iOS devices and all is working well.
What I need to do is share the calendar with friends/colleagues who are not Apple users. I don't want these individual to have edits rights, I only want them to view only. From going through the forum it seems that with previous verisons of OS X you used to be able to publish a calendar to a webpage. This would be ideal for me!! However it seems that with current version of OS X you cant do this, or not with iCloud calendars anyway? Maybe I am wrong here?
Anyway, I thought that a workaround could be that I could sync the calendar with a Google calendar and then publish the Google calendar online and just share the URL with my friends/colleagues who need to see the information. However I don't know if this is possible.
If you are reading and know a simpler way of of achieving this then I would love to hear from you. Basically I have an iCloud calendar that I want to make accessible to lots of people, ideally through a webpage or URL.
Thanks in advance.

Is there a way to sync iCloud Calendar with Google Calendar and vice versa?

I have been using Google Calendar for awhile and really just like the design of Mac's calendar a lot more. I want to use the calendar feature on iCloud because I can access it online when I need to. However I use an Android so I don't think I can completely utilize the iCloud Calendar feature on my phone. Is there a way to get Google Calendar and iCloud Calendar to talk?

Sync my Google Calendar in iCloud?

I added my google calendar to iCal but I cannot see it in icloud.com. What I have to do?

You cannot sync Google calendar with iCloud. You can have both running in iCal but Google can't see iCloud and vice versa.

Help! I synced my iCal from my old iPhone to iCloud. It worked great. I've done this because I'm switching to a Samsung phone and need to sync my iCal to my Google calendar. In attempting to do so today, my iCal is empty. How can I retrieve my iCal info??

This was EXACTLY what I needed about the purchases I made from my device. However, is there a way to re-download other ones you've made from a computer? Because I realized some of them were not just purchased from my device.
This is a picture of what it looks like now:

As you can see, the stuff circled in red doesn't give me an option to download from Cloud Beta because it already says "downloaded".
any way to get around that?

How do I import google calendar to iCloud?

Is there any easy way to import my Google calendar(s) into iCloud?
Thanks,

Click the "gear" icon in the bottom left corner of the Contacts page of iCloud.com, select "Import vCard...".

TS4050 I am running Windows 8. Although my contacts and notes from my Ipod touch show up on icloud my calendar entries do not show up even though they do show up in my Google calendar and my windows phone calendar. Any suggestions not already covered?

As I mentioned earlier, you have to decide which calendar you want to use. You can either use Google or iCloud, but not both.
If you want to use your iCloud calendar, go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Default Account (in the Calendar section) and set this to your iCloud calendar. After doing so, all new events you add to your calendar will be added by default to your iCloud calendar, and as a result, will appear on icloud.com and your computer (if it is syncing calendars with your iCloud account).
If, on the other hand, you want to use your Google calendar (as it sounds like you are doing with your iPod), simply add the same Google calendar to your phone and your computer.

How do i get my google calendar back on pc icloud deleted it

Can I keep my contacts on the ipad but not have icloud sync the calendar? I need to get google calendar back on my PC so I can sync with my Droid for my business. icloud calendar does not have reminders which I really need on my phone. Does anyone know how to get my calendar back please?

Hello Ronbon13,
Thank you for the details of the calendar issue you are experiencing on your iPhone 4S. On an iOS device, you can configure previous events to sync to your device in the Calendar settings.
If you go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars, you can set your calendars to sync "All Events" or events ranging from 2 weeks back to 6 months back.
Several settings in Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars affect Calendar and your calendar accounts. These include:
Syncing of past events (future events are always synced)
iPhone - Calendar settings

I want to switch FROM iCloud to Google Calendar

So, I've discovered that I'm not terribly fond of the iCloud calendar. I used the MobileMe calendar for forever, but with the switch to iCloud, I'm just done. My work uses Google calendar, so I want to switch to that, but I don't want to have to re-input all of my appointments/meetings. Is there a way to sync my iCloud calendar with Google-- even just on a one time basis? I see lots of posts regarding going the other way, but not leaving iCloud. I will continue to use iCloud for email-- I just want to switch the calendar. Also, I don't want to use iCal, but Google's GooCal instead.
Oh, BTW, I don't know if it matters, but I have an iMac, an iPhone, and iPad at home and a PowerBook at work (complete with 5 million firewalls and filters-- I work in the public schools). I access my calendar from all of my devices-- and I need to be able to share my "home" calendar with my husband...
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance!!

ICloud for PC not compatible with Google calendar sync?

I have a PC (Win7), a MacBook Pro, an iPhone and an iPad 2. Since MobileMe stopped their calendar sync, I have used 2-way Google calendar sync between all of my devices successfully to keep my calendar updated on all devices. I continued to use MobileMe to keep my contacts synced, but that option is ending this week, so I purchased CodeTwo to sync my contacts via iCloud. I installed Code Two and the iCloud control panel on my PC, and set them to sync only contacts, and blam ... my PC calendar no longer syncs to my Google calendar. All of the other calendars are syncing to Google and each other.
My PC calendar is the most important one and I need it to sync to all devices. I use Google calendar sync since it handles the Outlook group meeting invitations I receive & send through my workplace seamlessly (and iCloud does not). So using iCloud for my calendar is not an option.
How do I fix this?

After about an hour on the phone with Apple support, we discovered that somehow there was more than one calendar - one that I generally use and two marked archive. One was actually my Outlook archive folder, one was the Outlook default calendar (which was also marked archive) which is the one that WAS syncing with my Google calendar (but that we couldn't see), and the third calendar which is the one that I thought wasn't syncing with Google Calendar.
So now my question has changed - where did this mystery calendar come from. At one time I did have MobileMe installed on my computer for both calendars and contacts. I stopped using MobileMe for my calendar when it stopped syncing automatically and I uninstalled MobileMe today as part of our troubleshooting. Is it possible that when I installed the iCloud control panel on my PC and set it to sync contacts only, that it picked up the MobileMe calendar? In any event, I need to get rid of the unexpected "archive" folder and start syncing Outlook's default calendar. Any ideas how I do that?
There are days when computers completely drain me.

How can I import my Google calendar to iCloud calendar via web or ios?

I've decided I want to move from contacts/calendar in gmail to icloud. I was going to do the same with mail, but it seems iCloud doesn't have the level of functionality that gmail does.
My problem is that all instructions for importing my gmail calendar into icloud require some sort of desktop (I use PC) mail/calendar program. I don't use one. I manage my mail & calendars purely on my iphone or on the website(s). How can I import my .ics file into iCloud calendar via either the iCloud web interface or via my iPhone?

The only possible way I could imagine it might work ( can't guarantee it ) is as followed.
#1 Your Google Calendar is synced with your iphoen and you go into settings to turn it off.
#2 It will ask you: "What would you like to do with excisting local calendars on your iphone", you click keep them on iphone.
#3 Now you sync your empty icloud calendar with your iphone and hopefully the local calendar would sync on your icloud calendar?
Might work...not sure, play around with the settings in the iphone calendar app etc...
