Subscribed calendar deletions not reflected in ical

Hi,
I use webcalendar (http://www.k5n.us/webcalendar.php) as a web based calendar tool for managing my family whereabouts and plans. I have 5 users within the web tool and all 5 users have enabled remote subscriptions.
I subscribe to all 5 calendars from my MacBook in order that I can then sync these up onto my IPOD iTouch and all this is working fine.
My problem is that when I delete an item from within WebCalendar this is not reflected on iCal and the only way I can seem to work around this is through deleting the subscribed calendars and recreating them. As I don't seem to be able to automate this using a applescript this is a tedious task hence raising a plea for help on this forum.
Thanks in advance for any pointers...

This is a schema issue with QuickBooks, and you'll have to continue to update these items by hand until the issues is addressed by the Intuit programming team. I cannot believe that they are not already aware of it, but you should report it anyway.
On its face, it is ridiculous for them to create an event with an end point value which occurs prior to the start point value. All day events cannot end before they start! Actually, no event can end before it starts…
By definition, an all day event in iCal is one which starts on a particular date at 12:00:00 +0000 and ends at 12:00:00 +0000 on the next day. For example, an all day event on March 15, 2006 is represented in the truth [when pushed from iCal] as:
2006-07-15 12:00:00 +0000
2006-07-16 12:00:00 +0000
NOTE: I didn't pick those representations and that's not the way I would have chosen to do it, but it is what the iCal programming team has done.
As a user, you don't see the time values, and the date representation in the inspector panel is shown [for the above example] as:
07/15/06
07/15/06
Again, an all day event cannot end before it starts. So the data provided by the Intuit application is invalid: in effect, the event they have defined does not exist.

IPhone Calendar Changes not Syncing with ICal

Additions and changes to my iPhone calendar are not synced with ICal on my Mac. Syncing the other direction (adding or changing appointments on my Mac) works, but nothing I change or add on my iPhone appears on my Mac (the same seems to be true of contacts and notes). I have the same problem with an iPod touch.
Has anyone else experienced (and fixed) a similar problem? As it ism the iPhone-Mac sync only works in one direction!

I had the same problem, and then all my calendars stopped syncing either way. They picked a beautiful time to do it, too... right as I was leaving on a business/pleasure vacation where I was making on the fly appointments. grumble
However, I fixed it tonight. Here is what I did.
1. Back up (export) all your iCal calendars. (not just good practice, you'll need them later) Make sure iCal is closed.
2. under ~/Library/Application Support/iCal delete everything.
3. under ~/Library/Calendars delete everything
4. Sync your phone.
At this point you should have your phone overwriting everything in iCal. If your problem is ONLY syncing from phone to iCal you should be good to go, if you can't sync either way, you'll need to:
5. Drag all your backed up calendars back to iCal. In theory they will sort themselves out, but you might have some duplicates between stuff you've created on your phone and in iCal.
I don't know if this will keep the problem from occurring again, but at the very least, I was able to test out my ability to create events on either side, and it works.
I kept hoping that the last iPhone update would solve this for me, alas!

Using iCal with Google Calendars: can view subscribed calendars, but not add to them

Something recently happened to my google calendars causing them to all disappear from Google. Anyway, that mystery remains.
I am currently trying to re set up iCal to sync with Google Calendars and things aren't working quite right.
In iCal, I've done Calendar>Subscribe and entered the URL for that particular Google calendar. This has been completed for the 5 separate Google calendars I have and they show up in the list of subscribed calendars.
However, if I attempt to create a new event, the only calendar choice I have is for the main GMail calendar, not any of the subscribed "sub calendars".
In Preferences>Account, If I select Google and then go to the "delegation"tab, there is a message that states "You can't see delegation settings when this account is offline."
Can anyone offer some advice?
Thanks.

That's the part I always forget how to do. See if this answers your question:
To select which calendars to sync to your Apple device, follow these steps:
Open the Safari browser on your device and go to http://m.google.com/sync
Sign in with your account and select your device from the list of devices you've set up for Google Sync.

Subscribed calendar does not disappear after deletion

Hi, I recently deleted a subscription to a calendar on my iPhone, but all the events are still present in my iCloud. So how can I get rid of them?

Hi Reygok,
I apologize, I'm a bit unclear on the exact nature of the issue. If you are having issues removing a subscribed calendar or events from iCloud, you may find the following articles helpful:

IPhone calendar will not sync with iCal on Mac

Calendar entries on my iPhone 4S/iOS 5.1 will not sync with iCal on my MacBook Pro 2.4/10.6.8, but it will the other way around. I have tried:
Restarting iPhone
Re-setting sync services (holding down Option key and clicking on Sync icon in menu bar)
Changing which calendar to sync with (iTunes 10.6.1)
This may have something to do with having to do a complete Time Machine backup after a Volume Optimisation with Tech Tool Pro rendered my startup disk as un-bootable....???
I do not use Mobile Me or iCloud (can't with Snow Leopard...) and it is a straight USB connection.
I consider myself a medium expert, with no programming/Terminal skills whatsoever.
Any help is appreciated.
Manolis

Thanks. There is another thread that shares a solution that involves deleting ical Library cache files and Preference files. I"ll see if that works. ICloud shouldn't be a factor in my case since I don't use it and it's "off" in Preferences. I am encouraged that I don't need to use it to fix this issue based on other's experiences, but we'll see!

Google Calendar alarms not working in iCal when synced via delegation

If I set up syncing to my shared Google calendars using Google's Calaboration app, I get a half dozen or more "Request Error, Calendar could not be found" messages a day along with the annoying bouncing iCal icon in the dock.
If I set up syncing via the delegation method — as per Google's general syncing instructions (http://www.google.com/support/calendar/bin/answer.py?answer=99358#ical) as well as this Google Calendar forums thread (http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Calendar/thread?tid=210c119ea4d2d37e&hl=en) — iCal fails to display event alarms (i.e., the pop-up alert window).
I need the alarms, so the only thing I can think to do is to tell iCal to sync with gCal less frequently.

Hi Guys,
Having something similar here with Google and ical, seems to be related to when using Google Enterprise Apps for me and a third party provider is in use. In this case a SAML provider. It allows me to get to a login page and asks me which Apps I would like to allow to access my Google Calendar. Once I have made my selections and hit ok it then gives me a pop up message saying that authentication has failed. This is strange as I have had to authenticate with Google to be able to access the application sync in the first place.

My subscribed calendar does not display in today view in iOS7. Does anyone know how to make it show up?

I have a subscribed calendar on my iPhone. The today view in notification center shows that I have an event at xxxx and tomorrow view says I have x events but the calendar day view does not display any of the events. I need this so I can easily see which rooms my events are in. Dows anyone know how to make the subscribed calendar show up in calendar day view?

Interesting. May have uncovered a bug. It seems that limited duration events will display, but all day events wont on mine. (iPhone 5). Does that compare to what you are seeing (unfortunately, I have nothing in a subscribed calendar until the week end, so difficult to check. I do seem to recall seeing an event from one this past week end on the iPad, however).

My mobile me calendar does not sync with ical

I recently downloaded the new ical software and now my ical and mobile me calendar do not work. I have reset all information, downloaded (i think) all the latest software and made sure all checks are on.
Any suggestions?

Please always post your System details when you have a question. The upgrade to the new MobileMe calendar produces different results, and different problems, with different versions of OSX.
Snow Leopard: during the upgrade process your iCal calendars should be moved to MobileMe (this can take some time and you have to wait for it to happen). Once done, your iCal reads the calendars from MobileMe so any changes made in either place will be visible immediately. If this has not happened then this Apple Tech Note provides instructions:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3397
Leopard: when the upgrade is completed iCal on Leopard will not be able to see the MobileMe calendars until an additional process is carried out, detailed in this Apple Tech Note:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4330
Tiger: iCal on Tiger cannot read the MobileMe calendars, period. The only workaround is to upgrade to Leopard, or Snow Leopard if possible (Intel Mac required).

Why does my ical calendar list not reflect what is in my calendar. It has all the deleted calendars?

I am trying to sync my IPAD II with iTunes 10.
I have reorganized my calendar by renaming and deleting some calendars.
When I go to the info tab and try and select what calendar I would like to sync I get the old list of calendars from before I made my changes.
I have reset the sync services folder by using this command in a terminal window
/System/Library/Frameworks/SyncServices.framework/Versions/A/Resources/resetsync .pl full
and they all disappeared.
When I attempted a new sync all the old calendars showed up again.
I am doing this on my I-mac using Mac OS X 10.6.8.
Any help would be appreciated.

Found a solution form an other post.
I hade to stop the sync to my iPad to delete the calendars on it.
Then I synced again and only had the new calendars that I had in my ICal.

Subscribed calendars will not delete -

I have serially deleted calendars to which I no longer wish to subscribe.
I have delected them on my iPad, iPhone and iCloud.
The calendars keep coming back after they have been deleted.
Any suggestions?
I uncheck the calendar before deleting it.

Well, I was able to solve my problem. Here's what I did:
1. From my wife's computer I unpublished the calendar and then I renamed it. Then I republished the calendar living all of the information intact under a new name. Then I sent an e-mail to myself with the new subscription link.
2. Then I went to my computer and I was finally able to delete the old calendar by using "command+delete" at the same time. It was either that or "control+delete", but I think it was the command button. This deleted the calendar from the list which was grey and had an exclamation point next to it.
3. I then subscribed to the renamed calendar via the e-mail that I sent and everything is back to normal.
Not sure what went wrong but something was obviously corrupted and just needed to be cleaned out. Hope this method works for you too. Let me know.

2.1 iPhone Calendar does not sync with iCal

iPhone 3G 2.1, MacbookPro Leopard 10.5.5, iTunes 8.0 all upgraded this week.
Now, entries that I make from the iPhone will not sync to the iCal, however, entries from iCal syncs to the iPhone just fine. I tried restoring to stock Apple's 2.1 ipsw but it fails to restore every time so I'm stuck with the Pwnaged one I made using Apple's stock 2.1 ipsw and Pwnage 2.1.
Anyone experiences this problem with stock 2.1 or Jailbroken 2.1 ?
Or could it be 10.5.5.'s iCal problem ? (the rss symbol next to my first calendar on iCal is substituted with a warning sign
, and if clicked shows this error: Request encountered an unexpected error (domain AYFTPErrorDomain / code 530).)

Ok,
I figured it out. It is not a bug after all. Somehow I got duplicate calendars in my iCal from multiple backups, so by deleting the duplicates, the original ones appear. So the items been syncing all along, but I just didn't get to see it, since I was looking at the duplicate calendar.

Subscribed calendars are not appearing in iCloud.

I subscribe to my wife's calendar and it appears fine in iCal on my iPhone 3gs and iPad2, both running ios5, as well as my MacBook. It does not show up in iCloud calendar. Is this really not supported?

If they are appearing on all those devices then it sounds like they are in iCloud. Perhaps because it is on her iCloud and not yours that is why it is not appearing on the web-based iCloud. Can you open the web-based iCloud calender and add her subscription? Or, ask her unshare, then reshare her calendar. That seems to help alot of problems here at the start of iCloud.

Subscribed Calendars Do Not Update

My wife and I subscribe to each others schedules. However, there are constant problems with the updating. For example, when I delete an appointment from my schedule, it doesn't show up on her iCal--even after we refresh both computers and vice versa.
Any ideas? Thanks.

I have been having this same problem in our house for quite a while. I have my daughters school & sports schedule on my iCal and she subscribes to it on her iMac. No updates have happened for a long time.
From what I've gathered here, it's some sort of bug. Supposedly by deleting the iCal cache, it should fix the problem but it hasn't for me.
username/library/calendar/calendar cache is where I was directed to go, delete and restart but it didn't work for me.

Google calendar subscription not visible in iCal

Hi folks, I'm trying to subscribe to a shared Google Calendar through the ICAL (.ics) protocol.
Although iCal seems happy enough with the URL I provided it and shows a calendar under "Subscriptions", none of the shared events is showing up in iCal. I don't mean that event details are not showing up, I mean nothing is showing up, not even free/busy blocks.
I downloaded the .ics file from the URL and viewed it in a text editor, and it appears to contain all the information, with the start/end dates and times, etc. It's just not showing up in iCal's calendar views.
Any clues?

i seem to have the same problem, can you tell me where you set those default settings? in ical ? or google calendar? thanks for help ....

Imported ics calendar does not appear in iCal on my iPhone

When I import an .ics calendar to my iCal as a new calendar - it ends up in my "on my mac"-list and not on my "apple-ID-list" which (I figure) is the reason why the imported calendars aren't showing up on my iPhone iCal. What I can I do to change this??

Hi,
I couldn't import ics invitation received by email (in Mail). When I clicked on the ics invitation iCal was opening buy the ics invitation didn't appear.
Reading a few post I realized I could drag the ics invitation from from to iCal and then the invitation appeared into the "Waiting to confirm box" - on the right of the calendar button. By default is tried to sync using the "on my mac" account.
ANSWER:
I wasn't using this account, so I DELETED all my "on my mac" calendars and iCloud calendar is now my default. From now on all my ics invitation are imported into iCal AND they sync flawlessly to my other device (iPhone 5 and iPad 4) and to people sharing this calendar.
