Looking for desktop calendar & contacts (not Outlook, Yahoo etc)

I just bought my first ipod Touch. I'm looking for a stand alone calendar and address book that will sync with my Touch. I don't want to use Outlook, Gmail, Yahoo or anything like that. I use PC's with Windows XP.

iPod works best using iTunes to sync.
iTunes on a PC syncs with Outlook.
I'm basically looking for an app that I can download onto my PC that is a calendar and address book (similar to a Palm desktop app). I don't want to be dependent on having internet access to see my address book and calendar.
Well, Outlook fits this. (I hate Outlook, but that is what iTunes syncs with on a PC.
You'd sync and you'd use Calendar and Contacts on your iPod. You would not need Internet access.

I had just upgraded my OS to the OS X Mavericks. After doing so, I noticed that my MS Outlook for Mac 2011 does not sync with the calendar/contacts/notes, thus, also not sync these info with my iPhone4s anymore. Please help, thank you.

Correct, USB local sync was taken away from iphones and ipads with 10.9.1 and 2. We are not allowed to speculate on rumours it might come back in 10.9.3 plus new iTunes. Either wait and see or explore Syncmate 5 beta free trial.
icloud still works.
Cant help with the Outlook problem.

Cannot sync my outlook calendar with my iPhone 6 plus. When I added my email for verizon Calendar was not an option. This was working with my 4S iPhone.

Cannot sync my outlook calendar with my iPhone 6 plus. When I add my email for Verizon, calendar was not an option. This was working with my 4S iPhone. Also around the time I switched for iPhone 4 to 6 the operating system was updated to 8.

Then ask Verizon what the issue is and why there is no option for calendar.

Looking for exchange calendar sync system to replace sucky groupcal.
I've had nothing but problems with it. I get duplicate calendars, duplicate calendar entries, and the daemon stops updating from the
then the support folks are threatening to cut off support and no longer help me to fix their broken code!
I wasted money and so much time on this app, is there anything else out there that does a better job?

Not to mention that it doesn't work with Leopard now! I wish there was a way to get my Exchange calendar to sync to a third party that would sync with iCal 3.0. Since there is not support for CalDAV it would be nice if Exchange would support this!

I posted this question a while ago and didn't receive any responses but there are a lot of people who have viewed it and 10 have said they have the same question so I thought I would update you that I added my nanny to my exchange server account (created an email for her) and I send all invites to that email address and they work. So sending invites from an exchange server account to a non-exchange server account apparently is a bug so to solve it, get on an exchange server I guess.

How to sync Calendar, Contacts, Notes between Mac, iPad & iPod?

Hi there,
      I have a MacBook Pro using Mac OS X 10.6.8、an iPad using iOS 7 & an iPod Touch that uses iOS 6. And everyday I use iCal、Address Book、iWork (includes Pages、Numbers、Keynote) in Mac computer, use iWork also on iPad as well as use Calendar、Contacts、Notes both on iPad & iPod Touch.
I have trouble keeping all my files on my Mac computer、iPad & iPod Touch up to date and hate updating each of them manually. Hence I have two questions:
1) how may I sync the files of the applications mentioned above between my Mac computer、iPad & iPod Touch without using iCloud? (perhaps through iTunes or my e-mail account?)
2) if I must sync the files through iCloud, how may start my iCloud service for free?
              Thank you millions!

Automatic does not work for me on this particular task. . My primary computer is an iMac. On travel I use a MacbookPro. I want the MacbookPro to have the same Contacts list as the iMac. I am logged into iCloud on both computers. The MacbookPro needs to be syced. On it I logged out of icloud, and in doing so I chose to delete files from the computer. Then I logged in again to icloud. That put a lot of additional lists of groups into the Contacts, lists that are not on the iMac. But some individual pages are not updated to match the iMac.
I tried to manually copy (and overwrite) the various files on the MacbookPro that seemed to deal with the Contacts, including
my Library/Applicatiion Support/AddressBook
my Library/Preferences/com.apple.AddressBook.plist
They are still not the same.
On my Macbook I unchecked the Contacts, which deleted them and checked them again. This now deleted all of my groups and the individual ones are not synced with the iMac.
So now I have had three different versions of Contacts on the Macbook, as I manipulated turning on and off iCloud, and not one of them has been the same as on iMac.
How do I get the Macbook contacts to be the same as on iMac?

Looking for a Calendar w/ Management Tool

Hi, I am looking for a calendar creator that comes with some sort of Management Tool so that once I have adapted the code to fit a site, my clients can easily add events without messing with the code. Does anyone know of one or use one that they like?

You don't have order iPhoto books, prints, etc. from the US if you're in the UK or Ireland. Those are printed in-country; you can see pricing here. So there may be VAT, but there won't be any import/release fees.
But as has been pointed out already, iPhoto is a Mac-only application. So unless you have access to a Mac you can use, you'll have to look for an equivalent application/service for Windows.

My desktop calendar does not refresh

My iMac desktop calendar does not refresh - this is since I upgraded to Yosemite. I get a notice "can't connect to cal.me.com - make sure you are connected to the internet and try later!!!" It pushes out to my iPad and a shared iMac computer of my husbands but not my desktop calendar. Any ideas?

Please sign out of iCloud in its preference pane, then sign back in.

Looking for planning calendar template?

Looking for planning calendar template in Illustrator?

John,
You might try thinking outside your original box. While Numbers might give you a decent fix, you also might try a different program designed for just your project. I searched in the Apple Downloads for 'Inventory' and found a program called 'Home Inventory' (too easy, right?). Check it out here: http://binaryformations.com/
Some features:
--Nice user interface
--Categorization by type, location, etc.
--Nearly unlimited photos can be associated with your items
--Ability to create detailed reports for your records
--Shareware: only $22 (try before you buy and record 25 items with trial)
I realize Numbers is a great program for many tasks, but I think that from the looks of it, this program will do a better job at your specific task.
If you really wanted to pursue the Numbers solution, you could go about your inventory using a Numbers table and then list the location of each photo (/Photos/Home Inventory/12345.jpg) in a separate column. That way, you have all the functionality of a sortable, searchable table with the convenience of the photos somewhere else (non-bogged-down file as you desire). Perhaps you could print your photos in a thumbnail view where the names are listed; combine the smaller pictures with your table and you now have an all-in-one record of your possessions. Backup both for security and you should be good to go. If you ever need an item photo, just find the corresponding photo name for the item on your chart and then easily find it in your Home Inventory photo folder.
Just my thoughts. Hope they help!

CompanionLink sync calendar,contact,notes with Outlook over USB?

For years, I've been wrestling with the choice of what to migrate to from my hobbly 1st generation iPod Touch. A replacement for my cellphone and the Touch, augmented with a data plan. I am not a natural fan of the Apple cult design philosophy, nor the cavalier security model of Android. Furthermore, I have modest no-nonsense requirements in terms of apps -- I need a secure and efficient to organize my info and priorities, not play Mario Brothers over the web with my garage door opener, or some other frivolous distraction.
The advent of Blackberry 10 was a huge relief. However, I've been reading about the wrinkle with nonwireless 2-way syncing with Outlook, encompassing calendar, contacts, and notes. The latest rumours I've found online about the ETA is end of 2013, and I'm not sure how much uncertainty there is in that forecast. Consequently, I decided to explore the option of buying CompanionLink. I have only found one personal anecdote during my web search, and I'll refrain from describing it here. To get an idea of the quality of the solutio, it was suggested to me to post on a CompanionLink forum, but that might not be the best way to get a balanced view of the product. I figure that a Blackberry forum would be more objective.
Can anyone who has jumped into the CompanionLink pool please share their anecdote of how well it works? Anything that you consider worthwhile, as I may not be able to anticipate all the potentially significant points.
A particular behaviour that I'm hoping won't be in CompanionLink is what I experienced in syncing between Outlook and the iPod Touch via the iTunes app on the PC. If an item (e.g. a note) changed both on Outlook on the PC and on the device, the user must choose which one is the correct one, and must make this choice on the fly. If the conflicted item contained a lot of information, it would be hard to make the comparison on the fly. The correct way to handle this would be to allow the user to choose that both versions of the item kept, effectively yielding two instances of the item. The user can then use text comparison tools to reconcile the two versions e.g. vim, diff, Word, etc. Palm replicated conflicted items, but they've been out of the picture for a long time.
Thanks for any anecdotes on CompanionLink.
Afternote: Oh, and if anyone can point to past examples of a platform vendor changing hands, an the fate of the platforms, thanks for sharing that, too. It is an overwhelming factor in how I decide to go forward.

I totally agree. It would seem that since they sync all of the other parts of Outlook they would do the same for Notes. In fact if you think about it, they are not backing up the built in Notes so it probably was the last item on the list of todos. Probably in the next release of iTunes.
A work around would be to create a contact for the more important notes and then do a sync. Use Notes for the last name and the subject for the first name. That way they would be close together.
