Unable to select "show reminders" in ical

Hi,
I am unable to import my reminders into ical. Everything I've read shows that I need to select "show reminders" under View in ical, but this isn't an option (It's not even that I can't select it. It's just not there). My reminders and calendar are all visible on icloud, just not visible together on my mac.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks.

Sorry, no answer, but I have the same problem. I was trying to research why shared reminder lists between my wife and I, who have different AppleIDs, seemed to no longer work. We set them up originally using iCal on icloud.com and shared them per the instructions we'd found. They worked great, but seemed to be no longer working recently. I finally got around to trying to troubleshoot but in no way can get the Reminders list to show in iCal on the website anymore (just like you found). I was wondering if perhaps they were separating sharing functionality into the Reminders app but don't see it there either (nor even a Settings).
Note we still have the reminder lists on our devices (even the ones that were "owned" by the other), however when you use them, it's as if they were only your personal lists - they share only on your AppleID. Any help appreciated.

How can I get iCal not to show the same birthday dates from my iCloud

How can I get iCal not to show the same birthday dates from my iCloud?

You don't need them stored locally for a backup. You can manually export your contacts as archive for backup. Also, if you are backing up with Time Machine, you already have a backup. If your hard drive crashed, you would have to rely on your backup or iCloud anyway.
So, if you're comfortable with that, sign out of iCloud. Choose to delete contacts from the computer. When you sign back into iCloud, you should only have iCloud contacts listed in AB. When you open iCal, you should only have one listing for birthdays.
The other alternative is to disable the Birthday c.alendar and create one manually.

Does reminders in iCal sync with iPhone 4s

Reminders in iCal works well and iPhone 4s has a pre installed app called Reminders but they do not sync together. Am I doing something wrong or is there a way to sync them?

Yes, they will sync from the iphone to ical via iCloud. Show the reminders list in iCal > View > show Reminders.
Visit the options in iCal > preferences.. > Advanced tab for options.
Now tell Siri on the iphone to "remind me to get a haircut in four weeks". It should appear in the reminders list on the right.

ICal not Synching w/ MobileMe

Ok, so I have been using iCal on my Mac for years and everything has been working fine. I am able to view and update the calendars remotely using my two iphones and www.me.com. Recently, I have been adding and making changes to the calendars in iCal, but none of the changes are synching with MobileMe. I have tried automatic and manual syncs, but nothing works. Originally, I thought it was an iPhone issue that I could not see new events on the phone, however, even when I go out to the calendar at www.me.com, the new events are not showing up their either. The new events, however, are showing up when I publish a new version of the calendar, but not through MobileMe. I am thinking it is an iCal to MobileMe issue. Any suggestions?

I am having the same problem with iCal not syncing. I have 3 Macs (iMac, Macbook, and G5 Tower) that are all normally synced using MobileMe and 2 iPhones that sync as well, but the computers just stopped syncing the other day. It seems to be an Apple problem but I don't know how to remedy it. I've tried what has worked for some other folks here where you changed the sync to the computer from the mobile me in sys prefs but once the main computer that holds the calendar has a change it messes up the others again. It's becoming very frustrating and I can't seem to get to the proper link on the support pages to get an Apple tech to help. I noticed on the Mobile Me page it says that they did an update the other day that could affect peoples syncing but it says it's now resolved. Not for me, anyone has any thoughts I'd sure appreciate it.

Why does my ical not keep events in my upcoming days?

Why does ical not keep events that i have added? the events show up on my other devices and on the me website but will not sync to my computer. does ical have a finite amount of events and if so what is the number.

Anyone??

Why is Ical not converting the time zones on email invites? This is a big problem where my work is global.

Why is my Ical not converting the time zones on email invites? this has happend twice this week where someone has sent me an evite and it post improperly on the calendar.

My original post stated that I was having performance problems and the whole point of the post was to find out if there is a way of exporting the information out of Thunderbird and importing into a new profile. Nothing has changed. I was not looking for the standard methods of managing profiles, which are well documented on the web.
Thunderbird appears to make use of a number of sqlite databases. My post was to see if there is anyone on the forum with sufficient knowledge about the database structure/usage to show me how to get the information out and import it to new databases. It is my view that some database corruption has taken place that is causing my performance problems. So, I wanted to get the data out of the databases, edit it as necessary, and get it back into new databases. I was hoping that the Thunderbird developers, or a third party, had a tool to help me with that.
I suspect that the corruption has occurred due to hard disk errors or an unexpected shutdown at some point. I could be completely wrong, but as I have said, I have ruled out the obvious things. Having created a new "blank" profile I know that the performance problems are related to my existing profile. The new profile/Thunderbird performed without issues.
If you have the expertise to show me how to do that then I would welcome your help. If you can show me that I am wrong in my assumptions then I would be interested to hear your views.
So, nothing at all has changed. I previously logged a bug report on RSS feeds and I only raised the RSS issue as an example of why I think the obvious things are not applicable. Many users may have issues relating to anti-virus/firewall type problems but as I said in my original post, I am quite technical. The point of saying that was to make it clear that I am not a novice user. I also did quite a lot of searching via Google to see if I could find a solution before posting on this forum.
So, nothing at all has changed from my original post.

Ical notes

Is there a way to get ical notes to show up on my phone? I have a motorola slvr, event times sync ok but the notes aren't there.

I miss this feature on my Nokia N73, too.
"Event" or "To-Do" of Nokia N73's default calendar doesn't have "note" field, so it should be fixed by Nokia, Symbian and Apple.
There are some calendar applications like Papyrus which has "note" field on each "event" and "To-Do", so I hope Apple or someone implement that "note" on iCal can be synced with them.
Is there any application that achieves this functionality?

My reminders are gone from my Ical since upgrade. What do I need to do to input reminders in Ical and be able to print reminders with my ical. Thank you

My reminders are gone from my Ical since upgrade. What do I need to do to input reminders in Ical and be able to print reminders with my ical. Thank you

I totally agree. I just wasted .5 hrs trying to figure out how to manipulate and sync the reminders with the iCAl. Thanks for posting this thread online, I can stop wasting my time now. Apple, please change it back or make these apps sync.
Side note. I was creating my to do list and found the ability to asign a date by draging the task to the calendar in the bottom right. Then I discovered that I can drag that same reminder/to-do task into iCal and it will be created as an event. Would be great if I could simply sync the reminders to iCal instead of draging them over though. Then when I make the change in one the other can update with the next sync. This also prevents human error if I drag and drop the reminder onto the wrong date in iCal.

I can't edit my iCloud reminders in iCal

Hi all,
I've got my MacBook set up with Lion 10.7.2, and my iPad and iPhone are now running iOS 5. I have an iCloud account set up and am happily syncing reminders back and forth. My problem though is this: I can't seem to edit reminders in iCal on my MacBook. I can edit them on the devices, just not on the computer.
I can doubleclick on an iCloud reminder just fine and its bubble pops up, but there's no way I can see to actually edit the data there. Same if I select the reminder and then choose "Edit Reminder" from the Edit menu. It looks like this screenshot:
So does anyone know if I may have set something up wrong, or if I've stumbled across a bug of some sort? Thanks in advance for any assistance you can provide!

I tried to include a screenshot in my original post, but apparently it didn't work.
I can edit regular reminders just fine doing what you describe. However, when I try to do the same thing for a repeating reminder, the popup that comes up is not editable. That's the frustrating part.
I suspect the theory espoused earlier on the thread is correct, i.e., that iCal hasn't had real support for repeating reminders built into it yet. I can work around the problem so far by updating the reminders in question on either my iPhone or iPad, but that particular workaround is useful only if you have an iPhone or iPad.

Cannot edit Reminders in iCal

I cannot edit some of the Reminders in iCal on my MacPro. I tried to figure out what's different about the ones I can't edit, and it may be that they are set to "repeat every day" - I can change them on my iPhone with the Reminders app, but it doesn't make sense to me that I can't change that on my computer. I'd like to end the repeat every day w/out having to use my iPhone.
Does anyone know what's the problem - is it fixable?
Thanks

Please, please, please, report the issue that both alarms and due dates at the same time are not possible as a bug here:http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html. The more people who submit it, the more likely apple will listen.

Seeing Reminders in iCal iOS7?

for some reason i am not finding any documentation on reminders and clicking "Reminders Help" pulls up a nothing available page.
does anyone know if it is possible to see Reminders that i have assigned a "reminder" date and time to in iCal?
this would be mighty helpful to me and i am not finding anything on google or otherwise.
TIA
i am on Mavericks and iOS7

ooof. thank you meg.
that's a major bummer.
so - can you help me a bit more here? i am trying to knit things together a little more here and reminders has some interesting aspects to it (particularly the location alert on the phone).
also, i think i am taking your advice to go with Evernote which seems like it is a bit slicker than when i first tried it.
now i have notational velocity for sort of very data heavy lists, evernote for important lists and reminders for daily-weekly-yearly to do lists.
is there any way to get daily-weekly-yearly type /reminders/ into iCal so that i can actually see them? i mean, it seems very chaotic to have my alerts keyed to appointments in iCal but to have my to do list solely residing in Reminders - you know what i mean? i mean, i guess reminders will let me set an alert that i receive as a message (or an email or something - i forget) but it would be helpful to be able to see some kind of list of these at the very least and a /chronological/ list tied to a calendar would be wicked helpful for me...
THANK YOU

ICloud: reminders in iCal all over the place, unable to sort

Since I have switched my .me account to iCloud I have been unable to auto sort reminders in iCal on my Mac by date as I used to be able to before the switch.
Before I had the option to sort by date when I clicked on the small triangle on the right side of "reminders". Now there are only all different icloud reminder categories shown.
Surprisingly, when Im using safari and login to ical in icloud reminders are sorted by date as I want it.
Any of you experiencing the same problem or knowing how to solve this issue?
Thanks a lot!

I just talked to Apple Express service over this same problem. I went to the trouble of transferring my to-do list onto icloud Reminders - where each item can be given a priority ranking and where you are then given options for how to sort the list of Reminders you entered. I chose "by priority" of course, but you can also choose alphabetically, etc. However, of course, the point of doing all this is so that the Reminders are available on your actual device - my iphone. I then found that the Reminders list was an unsorted jumble on my iphone. Even when I tap out a Reminder on my iphone itself and choose a priority, the item remains at the bottom of the list as the last thing I typed in. Apple Express Support "explains" that the priority ranking and the sorting choices are "not supported". They offered me "an article" that explains this in detail. In other words, engaging with the Reminder function and choosing priorities and choosing sort orders is all just a cruel joke wasting your time. I would have been better off just printing off my Reminders list on paper and circling the high priority items in red ink. Oh - but you can't print it out either.
Unbelieveable.

Print Reminders in iCal?

How can I print Reminders in iCal? I use an ipod touch and a Macbook. I can print the agenda (calendar) but not the reminders which I see in the right-hand column.

Do Reminders in iCal sync via iTunes?

I'm using Reminders in iCal 5.0.1 on OS X Lion. I sync my iCal data with the Calendar app on my iPhone, via iTunes (not iCloud). The weird thing is, none of my Reminders data is syncing, either from my iPhone to my iMac, or from my iMac to my iPhone.
Does the Reminders data only sync via iCloud?

This doesn't help you, but I just recently started having the same problem, I just upgraded my 3G to 4.0 in iTunes so I don't know if that has anything to do with it but nothing on my phones calendar will sync to iCal. Events in iCal sync to the computer just fine thought. I hope someone can help me figure this out!
