Import iCal into Entourage

I have been using iCal for some time, and have numerous Calendars I wish to "import" into Entourage. I have tried synching with .mac but no joy. I seem unable to "copy" the calendars over. Is there a easy way of doing this?

Justin,
Searching Apple Discussions with: import iCal into Entourage provides some possible helpful replies.

Imported ical from outlook and the date across the top of the weekly view all show the date i imported..

I'm confused, what does iCal have to do with this, it seems as though you went from Outlook to Entourage, is that correct?

Is there a way to import iCal data into a numbers spreadsheet?

Is there a way to import iCal data into a numbers spreadsheet?

If you want to import lots of calendar events into Numbers, the general way to proceed would be to:
export in CSV (character-separated values) from iCal (Calendar)
import the CSV into Numbers.
1. can be accomplished via AppleScript (perhaps in an Automator workflow) or, perhaps more convenient, a dedicated exporter app such as Export Calendars Pro or competitors.
2. Importing into Numbers is usually as easy as File > Open and choose the CSV file.

Re-importing iCal into a calendar in iPhoto '11

so i figure out how to import my iCal into my project. then finished all the photo arranging. THEN got some new special dates that i inserted into iCal.
now i can't seem to re-import iCal to my finished project so everything is up to date.
i can find threads that say how to do it in older versions, there's a "re-import" option. but i can't find that in iPhoto '11.
please, please help, calendar must go to print before Jan ends!!

It appears that once you've selected a calendar and imported it you can make changes in iCal and have them updated in the iPhoto calendar. At least no way I've found. Send a feature request to Apple via http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphoto.html.
So you'll have to add those new dates manually.

No messages when importing mail in Entourage X (10.1.0)

Hi,
I'm importing mail from Entourage 2003 to Entourage X. I select the identity and importing starts. Contacts and folders are imported correctly. But the folders are empty ?!
I do not get any error message but for some reason, he skips the mail messages.
I tried it over the wireless network. I connected the 2 mac through firewire... no difference.
Who can help me ?
Thanks,

Do you mean you are trying to import mail from the Entourage version included with Office 2004?
If so, trying to import the mbox format used by Tiger Mail to an earlier Mail.app version under Jaguar or Panther does not work directly without a workaround.
I'm not sure if the same applies to the database format used by Entourage 2004 vs the database format used by Entourage X but it might especially since most want to import the other direction - from X to 2004.
Since this is the Mail & Address Book - Tiger discussions for Apple's Tiger Mail and Address Book applications, you may have better luck getting an answer to your question here.

I had duplicates in ical and address book. i got all deleted, but now when i import ical that was backed up, it goes away in a few seconds. my address book still has duplicates.

I have a mobileMe account. I had duplicates in my address book and ical. I got all deleted and tried to import info back. Now my mac will import ical saved file in .icbu for only a few seconds and my address book still has duplicates.

Not sure why, but now I have two of everything. GREATTTTTTT.

Importing iCal into iPod

I have been having a lot of difficult time importing iCal on my iMac into my iPod Touch. Can someone help me in some way?
Thanks so much.

What's the problem specifically? The options for syncing calendars are under the "info" tab if you're viewing your ipod in itunes.

ICal with Entourage Syncing

Hi, Can't sync iCal and Entourage calenders. Had this working but upgraded (hah!) to Outlook for Mac and now going back to Entourage won't sync.
iCal external sync is crashing daily according to crash log.
Have tried deleting syncs and starting again. No joy. Entourage shows in iCal as calender but no data.
All software up to date.

Hello, Julian, original macrat and LizKual ~
I have the same problem as macrat and Liz. Syncing (I'm not talking about iSync; I'm talking about Sync Services) between Entourage 2008 and iCal was working just fine until March 16.
Initially, the Entourage calendar, with all its entries, disappeared from iCal. But with some help from the folks in the Microsoft support forums, I was able to get the Entourage calendar to show up again on the list in iCal's left-hand column but, unfortunately, still without any events.
I've been plugging away in the Microsoft forums ever since. Can you believe this?! I haven't been able to use the calendar on my iPhone since March 16!
See:

http://www.office.mvps.org/syncservices/ical.html#calsync5
http://www.office.mvps.org/faq_topic/duplicates.html
I have done every relevant thing suggested on these four pages. I still don't have any Entourage events showing up in iCal (although Entourage 2 is on the list of iCal calendars) and now I have a massive number of duplicates, triplicates, quadruplicates, etc., appearing in my Entourage calendar. The only thing on the above-mentioned pages that I haven't yet tried is Syncrospector. (I bought Xcode and then discovered it was probably included as part of Snow Leopard. Oh well, I'm soldiering on, even though I'm in way over my head.)
Do you know whether someone has already assembled the code needed to get Syncrospector to eliminate the masses of duplicate calendar entries that Entourage 2008 stands ready to send to Sync Services? Such info — or, even better, a link — would be much appreciated. :-) I've been preparing for this undertaking, but at this rate it could be another two months before I succeed.
Of course, even after I get rid of the duplicates, I'll still need to find a way to get Sync Services to communicate between Entourage and iCal — which is its job, after all. Suggestions on that point would also be welcome. Maybe Sync Services is choking on the duplicates and that's why it's not sending anything to iCal. If so, then maybe Syncrospector will take care of both problems. I can only hope.
Thanks very much.

Can't sync BB with OS X 10.5.4 using iCal or Entourage

Hello!
I've been a Blackberry user for a couple of years and have recently switched from Microsoft Outlook to the Apple. I cannot get PocketMac sync to work properly with either iCal or Entourage. I can sync from the Blackberry to the Apple, so my device is recognized, but not the other way around (either using the merge or 'overwrite device' options). Pocketmac acts as though sync is occurring and displays no errors, but no changes are made to the Blackberry handheld. Entering everything only on the handheld is a major pain!
I've tried syncing to iCal and to Entourage individually and neither seems to perform sync BACK to the handheld.
PocketMac suggests running a clean sync utility or rebuilding the Entourage database, both of which I have done to no avail.
Does anyone else have suggestions for syncing with an Apple, short of purchasing an iPhone?
HELP and THANKS! K.

I currently do this with an iMac along with EyeTV and Time Machine. There used to be limitations with older versions of iLife, but I think it was just the installer being difficult, but those are no longer present in the shipping versions of Server and iLife. Time Machine might be considered an issue because by default, Time Machine doesn't back up a few directories which would not have any bearing on normal OS X, but is a bit daunting with OS X Server, specifically /var/spool/ as this is where all mail is stored. You can override this behavior by modifying the Exclusion file in /System/ which some would consider a no no.

Syncing ical to Entourage -- only first event syncs!

Hi. I set up Entourage to sync with iCal. This created an Entourage calendar in iCal, so far so good. I created a new event in iCal and put it in the Entourage calendar. Go over to Entourage and it has synced up nicely. Great so far.
Then I go back to iCal and change all my stuff over to the Entourage calendar. Go back to Entourage. Nothing. I go to the Calendar pull-down and select SyncNow. Nothing. The one event that synced ok before is still there, but nothing else. I go back to iCal and create new events and these wont sync.
What happened?! Help!
Thanks.

Can you give a bit more information about what you've done? When you say you have gone back to iCal and changed all your stuff to the Entourage calendar, do you mean that you changed individual events to the Entourage calendar in iCal. Does that mean this is the only calendar left in iCal?
If so, then my suggestion is:
1) back up your iCal calendar - File, Back up iCal
2) ensure the calendar name in iCal is "Entourage"
3) go to Entourage preferences and untick "synchronise events & tasks with iCal"
4) quit Entourage, open Entourage and tick "synchronise events & tasks with iCal" again
5) you will be asked before it syncs how you wish the sync to occur and you should select to have iCal override Entourage.
If I'm right you should end up with a calendar in the Entourage application which reflects your Entourage calendar in iCal.

Import iCal on egroupware.

Help me please!
My company uses sharing calendars on egroupware. It's an open source solution, by browser, really interesting, see at www.egroupware.org.
It's possible to import iCal. First step: export iCal on the desktop. Second step: browse the file from inside the web calendar on egroupware. BUT... it makes an error and only few events ship from desktop to the web... Someone can help me? thanks

Greetings,
#1 He needs a backup. Anyone who cares about their data on any computer running any operating system (Mac, Windows, Linux, Unix, Hamster in wheel, etc.) needs a regular backup. See here for how to backup a Mac: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1553 Please encourage him to take steps to protect data he deems important.
#2 Try refreshing iCal to see if the events re-appear.
First make an iCal backup, File > Export > Archive.
Remove the following to the trash and restart your computer:
Home > Library > Caches
Home > Library > Calendars > Calendar Cache, Cache, Cache 1, 2, 3, etc. (Do not remove Sync Cache or Theme Cache)
Home > Library > Preferences > com.apple.ical (There may be more than one of these. Remove them all.)
__NOTE: Removing these files will remove any shared (CalDAV) calendars you may have access to. You will have to re-add those calendars to iCal > Preferences > Accounts.
If that doesn't bring the events back, keep reading:
#3 If the iPhone is the only place where the data exists, proceed with caution.
__Create a new user account on the Mac: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.6/en/8235.html
__Sync the iPhone in the new user and merge all data (not replace)
__Launch iCal in the new user -- If the calendar database on the iPhone is intact you should see all the calendars here in iCal
__Go to File > Export > iCal Archive and save the file to desktop
__Take the resulting ICBU file and put it in Macintosh HD > Users > Shared
__Log into the main user account
__Go to Macintosh HD > Users > Shared and drag the ICBU file to the desktop
__Double-click the file and it will restore all the calendars into iCal
Hope that helps.

ICal and Entourage Sharing

I've noticed that in Entourage the Address Book in the program is the same as in the Apple Address Book. However, when I add an item to the calendar in Entourage, it is not displayed in iCal or vice-versa. Is this possible? If not, why would one be synched with one another and not another program? Thanks!

Went to Entourage and setup Sync Services in effort to have iCal and Entourage talk to each other, vice versa. iCal will recognize changes in Entourage, but Entourage will not take /recognize changes in iCal. What am I doing wrong?

Ical and Entourage not syncing

When i put a new calendar item on my iphone it syncs with my ical but not with my entourage...which is where i do all my calendar rearranging. From Entourage to ical and to iphone it works great. Just not the other way around. Please help. thanks.

Here's the fix! Go to Entourage and do a file/export and select the radio button "Items to an Entourage archive", then check mark ONLY the "Local Calendar Events" check box. Click the arrow at the bottom left, then check the radio button "Yes, delete items belonging to another project or category". NOTE: All your calendar events are still in iCal, and on your iPhone! Clicke the arrow and go through the process of archiving and deleting events from your Entourage Calendar file - you will settings disappearing from Entourage if you have the calendar open. Do a sync! After this sync check to see if you have two Entourage Calendars in iCal (I did) and delete the one that is empty. The other one remaining is your main Calendar info from Entourage. NOTE: One good thing about this methodology of using Apples iCal and Address book apps to transport data between the iPhone and Entourage is that you always have a back up in those Apps! When I deleted the empty duplicate Entourage calendar in iCal, all the information synced between iCal and Entourage restoring by empty Entourage calendar. Then I synced the iPhone in iTunes and all was back to normal. NOTE: Be sure you have the HOME and Entourage checkboxes checked in your info/calendars section as described in the original syncing with iPhone and Entourage instructions on the Apple website. NOTE: In my case contacts was no affected, only calendar events. Also, syncing was happening between the iPhone and iCal just fine, but not between iCal and Entourage. I'm sure there may be variances of this issue... but it looks like the best overall fix is to export your Entourage calendar event and delete at the same time, then delete that duplicated Entourage Calendar in iCal, and go from there. NOTE: When I did a global sync I ended up with 177 new contacts that were duplicate of two different email messages that somehow got converted to contacts and ended up in my iPhone. The fix for that was to select them all in Entourage and delete them then do another sync, then ALL was back to normal. I am now HAPPY AGAIN! Carl
