Sync Exchange calendar to iPhone via iCal on a Mac

My company uses Exchange 2007 for mail, contacts, calendar. Unfortunately, it does not support access to Exchange from the iPhone. For mail on the iPhone, I use the IMAP client which works well. For the contacts, Address Book can talk to our LDAP server. However, for calendar access, I'm stuck. I can see the Exchange events on my Mac iCal. Non-Exchange events sync across to the iPhone using MobileMe. The only way to get the Exchange events to the iPhone is via iTunes, which is not helpful since I don't want to have to do that continuously. Does anyone know how to sync Exchange events to an iPhone? Or any other solution?

I have the same problem - is there a solution?

Exchange calendar on iPhone won't show up on iCal

I set up my iPhone to get email and calendar from work, which is an Exchange account. When I sync the iPhone with my laptop, the work stuff (Exchange calendar) doesn't show up on iCal.
- On iTunes I have the settings set to Sync All Calendars
- On the iPhone I have the Exchange account settings to get Mail, Contacts, and Calendars
How do I get this account to show up on iCal?

Hello cclaxton,
It sounds like you were able to import around 300 photos from your phone to your computer but there are still about 100 left on the phone that will not delete, and do not show up for import in image capture or iPhoto. From what you are describe, it seems as if the photos were synced from an computer through iTunes to the phone. Use the following article to delete those synced photos from the device:
iTunes: Syncing photos
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4236
To delete synced photos and videos from your device
In iTunes, click the Device button in the upper right corner. (If viewing the iTunes Store, click the Library button in the upper-right corner first.)
Click the Photos tab in the resulting window.
Choose "Selected albums" and deselect the albums or collections you want to delete.
Note: To delete all synced photos, deselect "Sync Photos from" and, when asked, click "Remove photos."
Click Apply.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
Sterling

Syncing events created on iPhone via Calaboration to Google calendars?

Downloaded the new Google "calaboration" CalDAV utility and sync'd 2 google calendars to iCal, and then with iPhone using iTunes. All worked fine. When I create an event in the iPhone Calendar app within one of the sync'd google calendars, it doesn't get saved within that calendar, but rather to "home" (the calendar I had chosen as the default under the phone settings). So I deleted all my non-google calendars in iCal and re-sync'd the iPhone, so now only google calendars show in the Calendar app. Now when I create an event on the iPhone, after having selected one of the google calendars, it gets saved in a new calendar called "Calendar", which apparently gets created at the time of the save. ?!? It would be nice to be able to create new events on the iPhone off-line and then have them sync to the right iCal calendar at the next iTunes sync (and then with google calendar via calaboration). Any ideas?? Thanks mucho.

Unfortunately, nuevasync does not yet support showing events from different calendars as different on the iphone. They say they are working on it. Here is a clip from their FAQ at http://www.nuevasync.com/faq.html
"*All my events are gray on my iPhone/iPod. Why?*
At present we sync all your Google events to the 'default' calendar on Apple devices. Therefore they are not colored and when you create new events on the device they are added to your default Google calendar. Our service was developed originally for devices that did not have multiple calendar support and we need to update it for the iPhone, which does."
This is not really an issue for me, but it would be nice if my wife's events could be colored differently from my own events. If this is important for you, another option is to use Calaboration to synch google calendar with iCal, and then just sync your iphone with iCal when you plug it into the computer. It's not over-the-air synchronization, but you're calendars should appear in different colors on your iphone. Probably just means you'd have to synch your phone with your computer every day to stay current.

Need to synch two outlook calendars with iphone via exchange

I get my work email via an exchange server and read it at work and on my laptop using entourage.
It's great, the exchange server works really well (we just moved from lotus) and all of my email is synching beautifully across two computers and my iphone.
But for my calendar issues. I run my boss'es calendar from my lap top and computer, and I read it via entourage. I have permissions to read/write/edit etc.... as does he. But when I synch via exchange only my calendar is shown, not his. I use ical for me, and not the entourage calendar. But I am constantly referring to his, adding, deleting, etc. I'd like to be able to do this on my iphone.
So can I do this? So my email, etc, but his calendar via exchange. On his machine, he reads his email and his calendar.
I tried to set up a separate exchange account on iphone and only one is allowed. If I could do this, problem solved.
Surely I'm not the only person to need to do this?
thank you

You have to use a computer - not possible to do on iPhone that I know of - grant access and then the recipient will be able to view - but again will need full Outlook functionality - not possible on the phone - (well I have not tried to use the new Outlook app)

Iphone 5 not syncing exchange calendar

My iphone 5 is connected exchange 2010 server. It sends and recieves emails perfectly, but will not sync the calendar. It is completely blank and if I create a new event in it, it won't update to outlook. I have done several resets and checked that the exchange calendar is selected and is default.

Thanks James, however I have tried that numerous times. Even tried to restore the phone to factory settings however I am getting an error that prevents the restore. I'm starting to believe there is something wrong with the phone.

Since Jan 1st cannot sync google calendar and iPhone calendar

I had google calendars syncing just fine between iCal on my laptop and iPhone by using Exchange on my iphone. Since the first of the year I can't get one of the calendars to sync. I have a work calendar and personal calendar as well as two shared calendars that belong to others. Since Jan 1st my work calendar will not show up on my iPhone. Even if I add an event on my iPhone it shows up briefly then disapears??? The only thing I changed prior to this issue was adding a shared calendar. My personal calendar has and is still the default. No other settings were changed. Another thing is that on my phone my work calendar keeps unselecting itself so it shows 2 calendars rather than 3.
I went on the exchange settings and turned off everything and turned them back on and made it worse. Now none of my calendar events show up but the two shared calendars do. On google sync settings they are all selected still- both on my computer and iphone.
Any ideas how to fix this? Thanks in advance for any help!

It may be more than this but there is an issue with shared google calendars discussed here: http://productforums.google.com/forum/m/#!category-topic/calendar/syncing-my-cal endar/m8zzIAYN9rI

Syncing Exchange Contacts from iPhone to outlook 2003

I just recently left a company where I had Exchange set up on my iPhone for company emails, contacts, calendar, etc. I saved quite a few contacts that I pulled from Exchange to my iPhone. I just recently left the company and want to delete the email folder from my phone. The problem is, I don't want to lose the contacts. I just "turned off" wireless sync of my calendar and it deleted my entire calendar. How can I sync these contacts back to my personal PC? I have it set up to sync contacts in iTunes but they won't sync. Any help would be appreciated.

Not possible. Contacts synced over the air with an Exchange account or with a MobileMe account are kept synchronized with the server only. You can't sync contacts direct with a supported application on your computer via the iTunes sync process that were downloaded from the Exchange server and kept synchronized over the air with the Exchange server. It is possible to sync contacts over the air with an Exchange account or with a MobileMe account and sync contacts direct with a supported application on your computer via the iTunes sync process, but these contact data stored are kept separate.

Exchange - iPod Touch/iPhone - MobileMe- iCal/Address Book possible?

Not sure how to ask this other than to create a subject showing the flow I want.
I have an iPod Touch. I can connect to Exchange 2003 server and get my contacts and calendar from that into my iPod touch. HOWEVER, I want to get that data over into MobileMe (and from there into iCal and AddressBook).
This doesn't appear to be possible? Am I right? If not, why not?

Well, the way I do it on our Exchange network is:
1. Use Entourage on my MacBook and setup the email / calendars with my exchange account.
2. On the MacBook, in iCal, make a calendar called "Entourage" -- this will sync up the calendar from Entourage to iCal once you turn on the "iCal and .mac" sync option in Entourage.
3. Then when I sync my iPhone with the MacBook, that calendar (and my others) are sync'd to the phone.
I don't use MobileMe so I can't verify if this will sync that as well.

Sync two calendars *on iPhone*

Hi there - O my iPhone, I sync two calendars from different servers. Is there a way (possibly via 3rd party apps) to sync these calendars against each other *on the iPhone* ? No external sync's wanted (e.g. via Google or iCloud)... Tx, Stefan

Hi - thanks lots for your comment. I suppose you have lots of experience with it so I dare to describe my setup and desired results and I'd very much appreciate your advice.
- I could sync data (mail, calendar) from two different Exchange servers.
- One of them imposes an incredibly absurd restriction on my phone - pushing a policy which requires 8 char complex password to be changed every 90 days with screen lock set to max 15 minutes. This basically renders the phone unusable in daily life.
I was now thinking of having one old iPhone syncing against both servers but acting as an intermediate device: It would merge the two calendars and then sync the new content to the other server from where I could fetch it with my "real" phone. So this scenario does not work, all too bad...
Would you have any other suggestions how to achive this ? I don't want to involve 3rd party services, e.g. Google...
Many thanks for looking into it - best regards,
Stefan

How do I sync Outlook calendar with iPhone?

I am using Outlook 2011 on my laptop for my yahoo account. I receive all mail via Outlook and I use the calendar feature on Outlook as well. I set up the yahoo account also on my iPhone 4. I have no problems receiving/sending emails but I cannot figure out how to [wirelessly] sync the calendar from Outlook to the iPhone. Does anyone know if it can be done? And if so, how? Thank for the help.

Synchronization of calendars between Microsoft Office Outlook 2007 and your Apple iPhone or iPod touch requires Apple iTunes. You can configure which items are synchronized during a one-time set up process. Good luck with your Mac!
After the initial setup, each time that you connect your iPhone or iPod touch to your computer, the changes made on your computer or device are synchronized.
Connect your iPhone or iPod touch to your computer using the cable provided with your device or by placing the iPhone or iPod touch in the Apple Universal Dock.
iTunes opens automatically when connected to your computer.
In iTunes, in the source list, under Devices, click the entry for your iPhone or iPod touch.
Click the Info tab.
Under Calendars, click Sync calendars from, and then click Outlook.
Do one of the following:
To synchronize all calendars, click All calendars.
To limit the calendars that are synchronized, click Selected calendars, and then click the calendars you want to synchronize.
NOTE To select multiple calendars, press CTRL as you click each calendar name.
Click Apply.

How to change color of Exchange calendar on iPhone?

I have an Exchange calendar (and a few delegate calendars) on iCal in 10.6. My main calendar is on my iPhone as well, but I can't seem to choose the color, and I can't stand the red that seems to be the default (it's actually not so bad on the iPhone, but I want it the same color as on my Mac and I don't want lots of red all over iCal. I know how to change the calendar color in iCal, just not on iPhone (for an Exchange calendar, that is. Non-Exchange calendars seem to follow whatever colors are set in iCal.)
Thanks for whatever folks can tell me!
-David

This seems to be an ongoing issue as I have the same issue with my itouch. From this thread it seems the newer updates now automatically lock your gmail calendar to whatever color you chose from your PC. Change the color on your PC calendar and the color on your mobile device will match it. Would love to figure out a way to change the color on my itouch to anything I want, but it is now greyed out under the options to change the color.
https://discussions.apple.com/message/11820220#11820220
I am perplexed as I used to have the option to change my gmail calendar color from within my itouch as I do with both my outlook exchange account and my yahoo account. What gives?

Can I sync my iPad and iPhone via iCloud

Sorry if this has been answered before, but I searched and could not find a solution.
I, obviously, did not set up iOS5 correctly because I now have two sets of Contacts on my iPhone. One is called Contacts from my Mac and the other is called from iCloud. I guess I was confused by being able to sync over Wi-Fi and also being able to sync with iCloud (maybe). Below is what I'd like to be able to do. Can I? If so, how?
My Mac runs Snow Leopard. ( I rely on too many Apps that run Rosetta to upgrade now.) My iPhone and iPad have iOS5. Can I sync my iPhone to my Mac using Wi-Fi? It seems the answer is yes as long as the iPhone is plugged into a power source and both devices are on the same network. Does the sync'ing occur in the background or do progress bars show up on the Mac and the iPhone? Can I use a PowerMat as the power source or must it be receiving power through the doc connector?
It appears that while I can sync the iPhone to my Mac, I can still back up the iPhone to iCloud. Is that correct?
If I do not plan to enter new data on my iPad, can the iPad be set up to receive contact and calendar updates from iCloud. i.e. iPad either pulls updates from iCloud or sync's with the iPhone data that's backed up in iCloud.
I think what I'm trying to do is have all 3 devices current without installing Lion in my Mac. I recognize that new data on the iPad will not sync to my iPhone, but that's OK.

Are iPhone and iPad both use the same Apple ID for iCloud?
Are they both on Wi-Fi?

How do I sync my calendar between iPhone and Mac on Mavericks? The postings I've seen so far are not showing me how to do this simple thing! Apple used to be easy to use - not so much any more

I am trying to sync my calendar between the mac and my iphone now that I have upgraded to Mavericks. I understand that I have to use iCloud (which I am not at all excited about) but I'll be damned if I can find out how to do it. I've read several postings in the community but they point me to broad troubleshooting pages and I can't find anything that simply tells me how to get my calendar into icloud to begin with and then how to sync. i was pretty happy syncing dircetly through itunes. I am feeling very sour about Apple right now.

Actually it is pretty easy to do through iCloud,
On your Mac(s)
System Preferences > iCloud
Be sure the services you want to sync through iCloud are checked
click on Account Details and be sure your Apple ID is correct
On your iPhone
Settings > iCloud
Account -- Verify the Apple ID is the same one you set in System Preferences on your Mac(s)
turn the services you want to sync throug iClound or ON. These should match the ones you set in System Preferences on your Mac
On your iPad
Settings > iCloud
Account -- Verify the Apple ID is the same one you set in System Preferences on your Mac(s)
turn the services you want to sync throug iClound or ON. These should match the ones you set in System Preferences on your Mac
That is literally all there is to it. The first sync will occur when your iPhone or iPad is plugged into power and on WiFi. After that any change made on one of the synched devices will appear on all of the other synched devices the first time they have an internet connection.
