Local iphone 4 calendar with google calendar

Hi,
Hopeless... )-:
Got a few calenders on my iphone. How do I sync them with google calendar (not going through Outlook)?
My prime calendar is being synced over the air through a gmail exchange configuration.
I am not a Techie... Any help will be much appreciated. Many thanks!

You can't use bluetooth to transfer files between your Macbook and tour iPhone. Use iTunes and sync the data to/from your phone. Caution: Be sure that your Macbook's calendar and address book have at least one entry (even a dummy entry) in order to generate a merge prompt. If you try to sync a bland\k address book or calendar, the blank file will replace the files in your iPhone.
Read this: Overview of syncing iPhone, iPad or iPod touch with your computer: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1386
And look at chapter 4 in the iPhone iOS4 User Guide

How to setup Mac contacts and iPhone to sync with google?

I have tried and tried, I setup the exchange account with my google info on my iPhone but what do I need to do0 on the Mac? I went to address book preferences and checked sync with google and entered my info I even then hit the sync now button in the toolbar but none of my contacts went to my google contacts..

What am I doing wrong?
Ps: I have about 50 contacts on my iPhone and Mac previosly synced with mobile me, I did turn off mobile me before doing this. I do not have any contacts in my google contacts on the web, I never did.

IPhone 5: invitations with Google calendar via exchange don't work

Hi,
I haven't got a solution for the following issue- may be you do:
I'm using my Google calendar via exchange in my iPhone5. It is the main calendar. Sync works fine. But when I'm trying to send invitations to contacts or e-mail-adresses the invitees recieve no e-mail to reply. Funny is when I change for example the starting time of the event invitees receive a notification that the meeting has been rescheduled.
Is there anyone outhere struggling with the same problem? Any tips&tricks for me?
Thanks in advance
Patrick

I have done the same thing for Calendar, and yes that seems to work OK if you are ok with 'fetch' which being a personal phone, push is not necessary.
However, Contacts is still a problem. Google Sync website says to use CardDav but my iPhone refuses to 'validate'. Eventually it produces a message saying 'unable to validate' and something about the option of turning off SSL but I won't do that....
Using Google has all of a sudden become too difficult, not sure why they're trying to alienate iOS users, I get the whole Android/iOS battle but this seems a bit of dirty tactics to me...anyway, all they'll basically achieve is driving me over to icloud for everything, I'm not going to buy an Android phone because they won't allow me to sync contacts from Gmail to my iPhone...

When will iPhone sync directly with Google Calendar? (or Windows Calendar)

cause I don't wanna buy outlook!

One would assume when the official API / Software developer kit comes out next year some one might code this up, but presumably nothing before that.

Want to backup my list of about 450 iPhone contacts, or agregate with google

Will syncing my iPhone contacts list with google contacts add to (agregate), or lose iphone contacts not already in google contacts?

i found this article that might interest you

What I personally did though to add my google contacts along with my iphone contacts is
add account in (ios settings - mail ) as a microsoft exchange. I used the google info/ settings found here http://www.google.com/support/mobile/bin/answer.py?answer=138740 , after set up is complete, you can choose whether to sync your mail, calendar, and contacts.

How to merge iPhone mail folders with the server folders

HI,
I wish to merge my Drafts folder on Hotmail with the folder on the iPhone. So I could prevent duplicated folders.
Here a picture for demonstration.
Thanks for helping

If I understand you, you want to merge the local iPhone Drafts folder with the Hotmail Drafts folder. This can't be done - IMAP accounts like Hotmail mirror the server folder settings. You have a choice which Drafts folder you want to use on the phone :
Settings > Mail.... > your account > Advanced > Mailbox behaviors > Drafts mailbox > choose between the only on your iPhone and in Hotmail
Yes you do.
But I don't have Mailbox behaviors - I have that:

Syncing iPad iPhone iMac with Google Calendar, everything you want to know

Ok Guys, I just spent the last 4 hours going nuts with experimentations, trials and errors, and I finally think I figured it out, so bear with me here because it's not that simple. And excuse me for the poor english, I'm from Brazil.
Ok, in the iMac you're gonna set up a CalDAV account with your google login/password. It will work flawlessly and you won't have any problems, it will always update the google calendar and be updated by it. Just remember to use CMD+R to refresh it whenever you want, so you don't have to wait the 15 minutes or whatever you set in preferences.
Now let's talk iPad and iPhone. First of all, you have 2 options to sync calendars with Google, you can use protocol CalDAV or protocol Exchange.
Google's setup instructions for CalDAV (both iPhone and iPad) is here: http://www.google.com/support/mobile/bin/answer.py?answer=151674
The instructions for both iPhone and iPad for Exchange is here:
http://www.google.com/support/mobile/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=138740
(just be sure to select calendar only, cause I'm assuming you're using IMAP or other protocol for mail and contacts).
The main difference between CalDAV and Exchange is that Exchange supports push updates, wich is instant, while with CalDAV you have to fetch manually (every time you open the calendar app) or another time setting (like 15 min, one hour, etc).
Well, my experiences revealed that the iPhone and the iPad will sync flawlessly with Google Calendar and the iMac, without any problems, BUT as long as you use Exchange AND Push to update the calendars (CalDAV doesn't support Push, and you need Push so the iPad sync works).
Let me repeat that: IF and ONLY IF you have BOTH Exchange protocol configured and PUSH enabled iPad and iPhone will sync flawlessly. But many people (me included) dont want to use push because a) it has a battery hit b) they don't need instant updates c) it consumes cellular data when you're not on Wifi, and if you don't have an unlimited plan that's not good.
So, if you TURN OFF PUSH with Exchange sync, the iPad will stop syncing properly. Curiously, the iPhone will continue syncing properly.
What I discovered is that, on the iPad, doesn't matter if you use CalDAV or Exchange, the moment you turn OFF push notifications it won't sync manually anymore. And by that I mean that with push off the iPad will not refresh calendar data when you open the calendar app (as it should since push is off and manual fetch is selected).
To sum it up, I discovred that with push OFF in both the iPad and the iPhone (either with Exchange or CalDAV):
- The iPhone will update both google calendar and the iMac;
- The iphone will be updated by both google calendar and the iMac and events created in the iPad;
- The iPad will NOT be updated when you open the calendar app, so it won't see any changes made either on the iPhone, iPad or Google Calendar, but when you create new events in the iPad you will see the data icon spinning so it will send that event to the other 3, but it will not recieve anything.
On macrumors forum people discovered that on the iPad, if you open your calendar, close it, change settings from manually fetch to 15 minutes or whatever, it will sync the next time you open your calendar. But it's unreliable (doesn't work every time), not to mention that you won't want to do that every time you need to sync your calendar !
What about the iPhone ? Well, in my experiences I found out that it doesn't matter if you use Exchange OR CalDAV, it will manually sync with push off every time you open the calendar app. Just a sidenote: the iPhone wasn't manually refreshing with push off as well, just like the iPad, but as soon as I rebooted it started to sync manually every single time and it has been so far. But the iPad didn't sync manually every time even after I rebooted it.
To end it all, how to know if the calendar is manually syncing with Push OFF ? Well, just open the calendar app and after 5 seconds you should see the data spinning logo right next to the 3G or Wifi icon in the status bar. It must happen EVERY time you open the calendar app (you don't even need to force quit the calendar app for it to happen, it must happen every time you hit home and then open the calendar again). If it's not spinning (recieving data) 5 seconds after you opened the calendar app, it's not manually syncing, so on the iPhone you should reboot and on the iPad there's no fix I found so far (besides the unreliable fix of chaning the fetch time like I said before).
Oh, I did all these tests with an iPhone 3GS running iOS4 (don't complain it's not 4.2.1, cause the iPhone IS working, the problem is with the iPad), and an iPad running 4.2.1.
I just hope this thread gets attention because It almost drove me nuts to figure out all these things.
Cheers,
Felipe Raul

An update: I am seeing the CalDAV account sync more frequently than the 15 minute interval I have Fetch set to, sometimes as soon as 5-6 minutes. This is however going in/out of the calendar app multiple times... Every once in a which it will update.
I've found no pattern as to what triggers the sync. It doesn't seem to matter if I go into another app or not, or whether I close out the calendar app from the task menu. It's just totally random.
You might say, "what's wrong with just letting it fetch every 15 minutes as it is schedule to do?" Well, most of the time this would be ok, but there are occasionally moments when a decision must be made and an up-to-the-minute current accurate calendar is required for this to happen.
At this point, I'm going to have to keep my priority/vital calendars syncing via Exchange/push, and use CalDAV/push for the less vital calendars and at least have control over calendar colors with those.
Also, just wanted to mention that all the above testing has been over a stable wifi connection, rather than 3G or Edge, in case it makes a difference. (I don't think it does.)

IPhone will no longer sync with Google calendar

3 days ago my IPhone 4 stopped syncing with Google Calendar. I'm not aware of making any changes. I've done homework & and followed these steps:
-- Synced with ITunes: not syncing with ICloud; not syncing calendar
-- redone the Google Mobile setup procedure for my IPhone
-- limited my IPhone Calendar choices to only Google, i.e nothing checked for "All on my IPhone"
-- Set the time zone to Houston
Nothing doing. There are other folks with this problem, but 1 or more of the above worked for them...
Any ideas? I sure appreciate any help.

After installing iPhone 3.0 and iTunes 8.2 several weeks ago, my Outlook calendar sync stopped working. I have tried every hint or trick I could find to no avail. The iTunes SW never reports errors, and I cannot determine just where the SW problem exists. I have cleared my iPhone contents and performed a restore/reset from iTunes. I re-installed iTunes several times, including the latest version (8.2.1.6) today, but nothing works. I spoke with an Apple Expert with no success; pleasant and empathetic, but with no troubleshooting skills. He suggested a replacement iPhone, which makes little sense to me.
I have a colleague at work whose Outlook calendar sync also stopped working after installing the latest SW. Does anyone have insight in this situation?

I recently started to get an error message "MobileMe Services" have stopped working. I use Vista. If I remove the MobileMe program, will it affect syncing with my iPhone or with Google Calendar?

I recently started to get an error message "MobileMe Services have stopped working". I use Vista. If I remove the MobileMe program, will it affect syncing with my iPhone or with Google Calendar?

No, just uninstall the MobileMe control panel. All Mobileme services have been discontinued, so the control panel is not doing you any good being in there at present.

IPhone 6, manual sync of contacts and calendar with Google?

I usually prefer a manual sync of things like contacts and calendar with Google, rather than an automatic periodic sync. I don't change my calendar or contact list very often, so manual sync works best for me. I could do this with Android, but with iOS if I sync contacts and calendar with Google, and then turn off that syncing, iOS wants to remove my Google contacts and Google calendar events from my phone. So I seem to have no choice, either auto-sync, or no Google contacts and calendar events at all.
Does anyone out there know of a way to manually sync my Google contacts and calendar events when I want to?
How often does the Google calendar and contacts sync get done? Maybe it isn't an issue, if it only does a sync when I change my Google contact list or Google calendar?
Anyways, I really don't like automatic, periodic syncing to a web site happening on my phone if I don't need them to happen.
Thanks.

I can help you with your calendar problem.
You'll need to export your calendar from google into iCal, and then start making all your changes to your iCal calendar.
I wrote up the procedure with some screenshots here!
http://take-a-tech-tip.blogspot.com/2011/10/icloud-moving-google-calendars-to.ht ml
I hope it helps.
About your contacts, I'm not sure I'd be able to give you good instructions since I haven't done the whole procedure myself. I did however, have my Address Books contacts synced with Google.
This post might help you. It talks about moving Google Contacts to your Address Book.
http://take-a-tech-tip.blogspot.com/2011/09/iphone-google-contacts-sync-and.html
That should get your contacts from Google to your address book. Then, you can set up iCloud to have your contacts synced, and that should put them to iCloud. You can check by going to icloud.com and seeing if it worked. Then, I imagine you would have to disable the Google syncing with your Address Book (if I remember correctly, your computer will tell you it has to do this once you enable iCloud syncing for contacts).

IPhone Calendar - merging two calendars and connecting with Google

I've spent all morning trying to sync my iPhone Calendar with Google Calendar. I've synced it with CalDav but in the process it seems to have created a new calendar on the iPhone and hasn't synced any of my original iPhone calendar entries onto Google. Can I merge the two calendars on iPhone?
Also I'm not sure how the two calendars communicate with each other. Do they just sync when I connect my phone to my computer or can I make them communicate whilst not connected? I'd rather they didn't connect permanently as I understand this drains the battery.

If you are having trouble syncing your iPhone 5s with Google calendars, here is a solution that worked for me. I do not use gmail, so following Googles instructions did not work.
Tap Settings on the Home Screen.
Go to Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
Select Add Account.
Choose Other.
Tap Add CalDAV Account under Calendars.
Type "https://www.google.com/calendar/dav/[email protected]/user//www.google.com/calendar/dav/[email protected]/user" (substitute your email, and without the quotation marks).
For user name, enter the email address that you use to sign in to Google.
Enter your Google Calendar Password.
Enter "Google Calendar" in the description field.
Tap Next at the top.
If you get an SSL error, click Advanced and make sure SSL is On.
