Sharing iCal with/without iCloud

Trying to figure out the best way to share some calendars with a small group of users, some of us have Lions, thus iCloud, some don't and can't upgrade. Used to be able to do it with moble me. Any suggestions?

Greetings,
In order to share the contents of calendar(s) you need to sync the contents.
If you own multiple iOS devices, simply plug them into the same computer and sync the calendars from iTunes:http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1296
You can also use a sharing service like iCloud to keep all your devices in sync so there is no need to plug them in: http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/
If you are trying to share your calendar with someone else (you don't have physicial access to their iPhone) then you can use iCloud to share your calendar with them: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2690
Cheers.

Sharing iTunes with different iCloud accts

My husband and I have an iMac, MacBook, iPad and 2 iPhones. We have a shared Apple ID so that we can share iTunes. We would like to have separate iCloud accounts so that we could use iCloud without our contacts, notes, etc getting mixed together (did that by accident once, big mess). I tried to follow the suggestions in other posts on here about creating a secondary account but it's not really working. I don't want to make this any messier than it needs to be. What's the best way to share music and photos but not everything else? I should mention, we currently share a gmail account for the sake of having a shared calendar
TIA!

iCloud, iTunes, messages, FaceTime and even this community are all services provided by Apple which use an Apple ID to log-in, there is no reason you can't use different ID's with each one. When people refer to their iCloud ID what they really mean is the Apple ID they are using to log into iCloud.
If you and your husband each have an ID, lets say [email protected] and [email protected], you would each use your own ID to log into iCloud, Messages and FaceTime (if you use them) so that everything is separate. However if you have previously used [email protected] to log into iTunes and make purchases, then both of you should use this ID for iTunes, so you can continue to share your purchases.
Logins are fount at...

Sharing iCal calendar on iCloud. Sending email address is the same for everyone.

A group of us share a calendar so we all know each other's schedules. The problem is when sending or accepting meeting invitations, it always comes from the email address that is associated with the iCloud account. Can we change it for each system? Each local system should have iCal associated with their email address, not the base one.

It won't let me change my Apple ID email address it says "Email address is already verified for another Apple ID." when I try to change my email adress. The thing is, I have no other apple id's that I know of...Any help?

Sharing ical with pc user

I actually have a MacBook (OS X 10.7 something) and I love my iCal. I'd like to share my work schedule with my Mom but her PC is not reading the iCloud share link at all. Can't copy paste it, can't link, can't nothing. She does not have Outlook. Can I otherwise share my calendar/s with her?? Any quick and easy solutions? Thanks.

I too have a number of similar issues. How can I add live calendar data to my web site as only the url link option is there at present. Really need the capacity to share, view and even edit on PC otherwise google wins again with all these options existing.

Sharing iCal with PCs privately

I'm wondering what my options are if I wanted to share my iCal calendars with a PC without having them publicly published. Is it possible to have passworded calendars?
Basically publishing solves my problem now I just need to make them private.
Thoughts?

You may want to take a look at spanning sync - it is a paying software and no am not employee or investor - which I use and so far is doing a good job. Spanning sync syncs ical calendars to google calendars - you would have to create a google account of course, and that is free. Once that is done, and ical syncs with gcal via spanning sync, then you can invite people to view your google calendars and give them either read or write privileges - more secure than publishing via a private server or .mac.
Hope this helps

Sharing iCal with non-mac calendars

How can I share my iCloud calendar with someone who stubbornly doesn't want to download iCloud to their PC or set up an @me email on their iPhone??

Hi there brucedm!
I have some information that might prove useful to you about iCloud. First, iCloud is a free service, and you can find more information on the basics of it in the following webpage:
Apple - iCloud - Your content. On all your devices.

I also have some more specific information for you regarding iCloud calendars and sharing calendars. This article is an overview of calendar sharing:

And this one is about activating sharing on your iCloud calendars:

HELP with sharing ical in icloud

I desperately need to share the same calendar to two kinds of people. I hace a person who has a .mac account that has to able to edit my calendar. And I have others who don't have a .mac account and need only to see the calendar.
When I go to that particular calendar in ical or in icloud (on the web) and click on the litlle "sync" icon, it gives me a dialog with the name of the person that has the .mac account. However, I can't find a way to share the same calendar but justa as a subscription.
I cannot beleive how difficult Apple has made this for us users.
Thanks

Ok first of all, go in the app store and find a free app that backs up your contacts. The one I used is My Contacts Backup (Globile). Use it to backup your contacts, and email the file to yourself. Now disable Icloud on all the phones. One of your phones can keep using the apple ID you have shared as your icloud ID, the other users will have to create new apple id's to use with icloud and gamecenter. They can still use your apple ID strictly in the app store so that you can share purchases, but that way each of you will have your own sync backup. Once you do that just open the file that you emailed yourself with that contact app, and it will restore your contacts (make sure the app is still on your phone). Make sure the contacts you restored are the ones only you want to use, clean out any that may have synced over earlier from the other users, and then turn on icloud to back them up.

Can I have personal calendars block time in my ical without sharing contents with others?

Can I have personal calendars block time in my ical without sharing contents with others?

The calendar attendant is enabled so meeting requests are handled automatically based availability without needing a human delegate to deal with them.
Try disabling it and test. ( Maybe test against another dummy account first).
Letting users place appt directly on a calendar is never recommended, but it could be the calendar attendant is trying to do its thing as well.

Synchronize Ipad & Mac Ical without Icloud

How could I synchronize Ipad & Mac Ical without ICloud? Mac Ical duplicates in Ipad Ical while Ipad Ical is not updated in Mac Ical ...

splithsc wrote:
First uncheck syncing iCloud with calendar and reminders in System Preferences, and then set up a new calendar in iCal under On My Mac (this may not be necessary at all, but that's what I did). Then choose Find > New Calendar. Enter your iCloud account and set it up from there. In this way you will keep both On My Mac and iCloud. Hope this helps.
Attempted your method, splithsc. There are a couple of things that seem a bit unclear to me in your procedure. Besides that it didn't work for me.
I can set up a new calendar in On My Mac, but in order to do so, I had to unsubscribe from ALL shared calendars (I share some Google calendar events too) first AND turn off iCloud in order to create a calendar in On My Mac. Once that was accomplished I was able to create a calendar and an event in that Calendar that way though.
Curiously, shared Google accounts do not delete the On My Mac created calendar when they are re-enabled.
When entering iCloud again the "merge" action somehow replaces calendars On My Mac not merge them as the menu states, merges the calendar created in On My Mac and deletes the entry sort of as it says! Events created in the Calendar are gone but the calendar is gone!
Turning off the iCloud doesn't bring back the missing "On My Mac" nor data in it, however.

HT5058 Syncing Exchange Account in iCal with iCloud

I have successfully added an Exchange account calendar to my iCal. Problem is I can't get my Exchange calendar to sync with iCloud.
How do I get my Exchange account calendar to sync with iCloud since they appear in different sections? Thank you.

I think I have a solution: delete the shared calendars from your iCloud calendar list and then log into your husband's iCloud account. Stop sharing all the calendars in question and re-share them again to your iCloud e-mail address.
I had to do this very thing and lo and behold, the new invitations took just fine and now, no more 403 errors. So, the source of the problem would appear to be a server-side permissions or backoffice kind of problem. The workaround is to delete the sharing properties (i.e. stop sharing) and then re-share the calendars again. I think maybe now with this information, Apple should be able to home in on a real fix but until then, try this workaround. Hope this helps you.

Sharing content with iCloud

Not an iCloud user yet but I was wondering that how do I share content with my friends with iCloud? Can I restrict their access to my files somehow? I would only like to share part of my content.

Thanks. I already use Dropbox at work with my work-PC. I was just wondering iCloud for purely personal use since I'm using mac at home. I have no real need to share content with myself but sharing content with other people would seem more useful to me. I'm lazy so I would like to have just one unified cloudservice that would contain all my iTunes purchases and personal files. And since the content is already on cloud then why not share it with my friends. I think it would be quite easy to manage access rights between different Apple ID's. I think this feature would add value to iCloud because right now I am able to sync content between different devices quite easily even without iCloud so it seems a bit useless to me.

Itunes sharing with own icloud setup for family of 5

Hi, we currently have 4 iphones, 1 ipad, 3 ipods, and 1 pc all under one itunes account id. However, we are now running into storage problems and my daughter just go a macbook pro and leaving for college. So my question is how can we all still share purchased content but have our own storage? Is this possible and if so how do I go about setting this up? I don't want to set up a different itunes account for each person because my daughters often want the same songs and apps and I don't want to purchase them twice. Thanks in advance for any help!

To avoid sharing and merging your iCloud data, you will need to put each person's devices on a separate iCloud account with a separate ID. You can continue to all share the same ID for iTunes; it does not need to be the same as the ID you use for iCloud.
Creating separate accounts will keep everyone's iCloud data separated, and give each person's devices their own 5GB of free storage for their device backups, and a separate iCloud email account/address. However, Find My iPhone (iPad, iPod, Mac) is tied to the iCloud ID so they cannot be tracked together on the same map. You will have to sign into each iCloud account separately (on icloud.com or the Find My iPhone app) in order to locate devices using that iCloud ID.

I am a coach and are wanting to make sharing videos with my coaches easy. Can i create an icloud account and attach 4 coaches to that i cloud accout so they recive the uploaded video to thier phones also?

We are all iphone and ipad users and would like to share videos over icloud. Idealy i would like to create a team icloud account and giver permission to the coaching staff and players. I could upload game film to the cloud and it would share to thier devices. Is this possiable with the icloud?

Welcome to the Apple community.
iCloud video sharing is limited to 5 minute clips, there are better ways of sharing longer clips, such as YouTube or DropBox.
