Sharing a groupwise calendar through iCal

I use an iPhone for my work but our appointments and mail are managed through groupwise. While my groupwise calendar syncs fine with iCal, the problem I'm having is that there is no "share" option in iCal for me to share that calendar with my partner. I can share any other calendar but not that one. Any ideas??
Thanks in advance...

Very clear question, but it doesn't look like there's a good answer for you. The MobileMe entries are "all or nothing" - each machine synced to that one account would receive ALL of the subscribed calendars.
Note that you could always choose to disable (i.e. not view) the calendars which you don't want to see, within iCal, just be unchecking them in the list. So, your display would enable your calendars, including the shared entry; and her display would enable only her calendars, including the shared entry. The others would still exist on each machine, but they wouldn't clutter your iCal display, if you didn't want them to.
Outside of that, the only want to have multiple editors for a shared calendar would be to use a 3rd party product such as Spanning Sync - see http://www.spanningsync.com/. I hope that helps…

Microsoft Exchange shared calendars through iCal on iPad or Mac

This is surely not an original question, but -
My company uses Microsoft Exchange. I have synced it to my iPad for calendar, contacts, and email, and it works very well.
We also use shared calendars, and I utilize this feature often via Outlook on my PC. However ...
1. I'd like to be able to view MS Exchange shared calendars on iCal on my iPad. Is this possible? Obviously, no one will grant me permission to view their contacts or emails, but calendar-only is what we share. Is this possible?
2. Is it possible to view MS Exchange shared calendars through iCal on a Mac? I have a colleague who has an iMac with iCal synced to Exchange and it works great. However, we do not know how to view shared calendars (from MS Exchange) through iCal. Again, we want to share calendars-only - no email or contacts. Can anyone help with this?
THANKS SO MUCH FOR HELP.

Sharing a single calendar in iCal

Is it possible to share just one calendar with another computer that has the same mobileme account?
Example: My wife has 5 calendars, I have 7. We want one common calendar for our meetings and I don't want her 5 calendars and she doesn't want my 7. (we trust each other!)
Is that a clear question? Thanks.

Sharing only one calendar in ICAL

I have several calendars set up in my ICAL. I want to share only one via email but when I try the file gives access to all of my calendars. How do I provide access to one not all?
Thanks

I bought and have used BusySync with great success http://www.busymac.com/
My only caveat is that I've had problems recently that are probably due to the fact I've also installed Appigo Sync, and with syncing via MobileMe I may have had too many cooks in the kitchen.
Good luck!

New On My Mac calendar in iCal

Hi, I just upgraded to OSX 10.9 and can no longer find where to create a new iCal calendar On My Mac. I only have the option to create one on iCal.

Okay, upgrading to Mavericks really screwed up my iCal and I've been on Apple Tech Support all night and it's still not finished. BUT to add an On My Mac calendar (that Mavericks erased when upgrading) back:
log Calenders out of iCloud by deselecting the check box in iCloud preferences
disable all shared Google Cal calendars
open iCal
File >> New Cal >> On My Mac

Viewing/sharing outlook calendars in ical

I am trying to view a colleagues outlook calendar in ical. I've gone through the process of sharing and adding via the outlook web app and i can see their calendar fine via web browser. I'm struggling to see it in iCal however. I go to add the calendar to my iMac calendar via calendar > preferences > accounts > delegation. I type in their email address and it pops up as they're a contact/we're on the same network. I add them and then in the delegation list they appear as 'greyed out'. I've gone through this process with all of my colleagues, some it works for and some it doesn't. Sometimes some of them are greyed out and other times they are there and let me tick 'show'.
All calendars are visible and working via outlook web app. Only some let me see them in iCal.
This is very frustrating! Anyone have any solutions?

My friend and I share an iCal calendar through iCloud. Until recently, we would receive email notifications if either of us made changes to or added an event to the iCal calendar. Does anyone know why those email notifications stopped?

My friend and I share an iCal calendar through iCloud. Until recently, we received email notificiations anytime either of us made changes to exisiting calendar events or added new items to the calendar. Does anyone know why these email notificiations stopped?

iCloud was experiencing problems with this a couple of days ago, where many users with shared calendars were getting email notifications even though their iCloud settings did not select to receive them. Perhaps when they fixed this problem it reverted your settings to not receive email notifications. Got to iCloud and check your setting for this. If it still look correct, try turning off email notifications, save the change, then turn them back on again and save the change again.

Can I create a shared calendar on iCal from the New iPad?

My company just gave out iPads for use to all field employees. My coworkers and I currently have an Outlook shared calendar that we utilize for scheduling our work. We can not access the shared calendars on our iPads, therefore I would like to create a shared calendar in iCal that we can all access for sharing our schedule as we were doing on Outlook. Is this possible?
NOTE: The idea is that I would like to use the iPad as the sole resource, instead of carrying our laptops around just to access the shared outlook calendar/schedule. The laptops are outdated junk that requires roughly 20 mins of time just to power up, connect and sign in to our servers...very inefficient.
Thank you!

I have a bluetooth 2 keyboard from Brookstone, will it work with the iPad?

I invited someone to share a calendar on ical and it didn't go through -

Hi.
I invited my business partner to share a calendar on ical and was successful. I then invited my husband, who has an older mac and older OS but my invitation didn't even get through to him. Does anyone have advice?
Thanks, Julie

If both have Apple devices AND both have data plans, why don't you message each other using iMessages instead of regular SMS?
iMessages get sent thru the TCP/IP Internet rather than the cellular network so they are essentially free (other than any data cap you may have, irrellevant if the iGadget is connecting via Wi-Fi).

Show shared calendars in ical wiki

Hello everybody,
We use the snow leopard server version 10.6.4 on a xServe.
Personal calendars are shared, so we can see the calendars of each others in iCal.
But I want to make visible the shared calendars on the wiki (calendar) server. Now I can only see my personal sychronosized calendar online.
So, how can I add shared calendars on the wiki server?
Tnkx!

There is an alternative way you could try which works very well for our client who uses both macs and pc's on a windows network.
On iCal go to ICAL > Preferences. Click on the Accounts tab, select the exchange account and click on the delegations tab. On here click the + symbol and type in the first few letters of the user who's calendar she needs access to - if exchange is configured correctly it should automatically find the username and add that calendar to iCal for her to view.

Shared calendars in iCal via Exchange 2007

I am trying to test a solution for a user that has an iMac she wishes to connect to our Windows network and access her email and calendars from home. She will VPN of course, and upgrade to Snow Leopard for Exchange support. I have everything working up to that point on a test MacBook with 10.6.2 that is on the inside (will test VPN after everything works internally). I created an Exchange account that I can receive mail in Mail.app and normal calendar events in iCal.
The situation she is attempting to do is to see shared Exchange calendars. Not public folder calendars, but individual calendars that have been shared with her. Now in Outlook, all you have to do is click Open a Shared Calendar and input the user name of the calendar owner. In iCal, I think it is the Subscribe function, but it asks for a URL. What am I supposed to enter there? I have Outlook Web Access (OWA) URLs for the calendar I am trying to access, but when I input the URL string, I get an error saying the data was not valid.
Anyone else doing this???
BTW, here is a link to a shot of the error message I am getting:

Synching iCal with iPhone calendar through iTunes on Snow Leopard

Hi,
I've seen some threads on in similar matters but none of them related to this problem:
I can't seem to sync my iPhone's calender and iCal throught iTunes. I CAN'T sync the two using iCloud, because I'm using Mac with Snow Leopard, which doesn't support iCloud.
I'm using iTunes 11.1.4, and when I go to the info tab on iTunes in order to sync the calenders, there are no options to choose. It simply says: "Your calenders are being synced with your iPhone over the air using iCloud, Over-the-air sync settings can be changed on your iPhone".
I would rather not upgrade my OS unless I must. I'm using a Macbook Pro with OS X 10.6.8, iTunes 11.1.4 and iPhone 4s with iOS 7.0.4.
Thank you for your help!
Daniel

Hi danielshachar!
It sounds like the settings in your phone may be prompting iTunes to report that your contacts and calendars are being synced through iCloud. Use the information in the following article to adjust this setting so that you can sync your contacts and calendars through iTunes instead:
