Sync Google and Outlook calendars?

It seems this is no longer possible since Apple removed features from the OS when "upgrading" to Mountain Lion and since google removed their own syncing tool for exchange in January 2013. This leaves an opportunity for a 3rd party developer to fill this gap... but I stil have found nobody who came out with a solution. Why not a server based solution without the need to install software ?
With syncing, you need to understand that when an event is created in a google calendar, then the same event is created in the exchange calendar.When an event is created (or deleted ) in exchage (office 365), the same event occurs in the google calendar.
Why would I need this ? For example: tools like scheduleonce.com only work with a google calendar, and my company calendar is based on exchange.

Microsoft and Google might be able to but this is nothing to do with Apple products or services.
Try the forums for the 2 companies involved.

Syncing iPhone and Outlook Calendar - bug?

I have an issue syncing my iPhone 3G Calendar with Outlook’s Calendar (Outlook 2007). In general, the sync works fine, but: If I delete the current (ie first) instance of a repeating event in Outlook, when I sync, my iPhone will still display ALL instances of that event, including the ‘deleted’ one.
I have verified that this is because the iPhone is syncing the event based on its start date in Outlook, which will include the ‘deleted’ event, rather than what actually is shown as still a valid event in the calendar (which of course is what I want).
I am guessing that this is just because both manufacturers are pursuing a different methodology, but the bottom line is that iPhone claims it will sync properly, so I’d call it a bug.
I have a workaround, in that I can delete events from the Outlook calendar by changing the start date to the current one I wish to display, but this is cumbersome and of course takes more time. Is there a more elegant workaround? Or am I just doing something wrong?

When you decide to sync the second computer to the iphone, itunes will ask you if you want to merge or replace the data.
In the merge, data will be transfered both ways.
So, when you say separate, you can sync them one at a time, but in the end, all the events will be the same on both computers and iphone. Because itunes keeps merging the data.

Sync phone and outlook calendar on VISTA 64

I am using VISTA 64 bit os. I have a 8300 running 4.5 and the desktop application is 4.6.0.6. I can sync everything by the Calendar. It will read both the 8300 and Outlook but then errors out. There really is not error message, vista just puts up a GUI that ask if you want to search for a fix to the error or just quit the program. I have tried using the compatibility mode with the 'exe' program, but that did nothing but slow it down. Any help

if I were you I would go to the back-up section of DM and do a specific backup of the calendar database only.
does this work ?

Sync iCal and Outlook calendars?

I use a Mac at home and on the road, but have to use a Win-XP at work. Is there a way to keep both sets of calendars on my iPod (iCal and Outlook)?

Ok... so in that case, what is keeping track of changes to the files on the flashcard? When you plug it into the Mac after using it on the PC, what decides which files are newer and which files to move from the flashcard to the Mac, and which files to move from the Mac to the flashcard? What decides what to do when there is newer data on both?
I suspect you are not actually syncing, but simply manually copying the data each time using the flashcard as the transport medium.
No, I have two sync programs, one on the Mac, one on the PC, they sync their files to the flashcard.

Have you tried configuring iTunes on both your home Mac and work PC to sync calendars to your iPod touch? If so, does it work or is data overwritten?
That was my question, can it be done? I'm guessing, from what you are saying here, that iTunes should be able to handle it? I don't have iTunes on the PC, so I haven't tried it. Is the functionality the same as on the Mac?

Sporadic Syncing with Google and Outlook Calendars

About one month ago my IPhone stopped synching with laptop on a timely basis. (I use a Google calendar on both my laptop and IPhone.) I sometimes have to turn off and on the wi-fi in order to synch. Also used to receive emails on my phone first before receiving them on laptop...not anymore. Seems as if every email and calendar update is only done every hour or so, and then not reliable. I wonder if Verizon hasn't changed my service to "steerage" as referred to on older ships. With the amount I'm paying every month I expect to have immediate synching and a return to the good old days. Anyone else having problems?

Hello whangii5, Let's bring you back to the good ole days and get your sync working properly! When checking settings is the device setup to Push data? Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendar>Fetch New Data>Push>On. Please keep me updated on the status as I would be happy to provide some additional troubleshooting.
Thank you,

Sync ical to google and outlook cal.

Hi, if I create a event, appt, or anything in ical, can i sync it to google and outlook cal's. or if i create an event in outlook or google cal first can i sync it to all other calenders. If possible how do I co-exsist all 3 calenders.

Hia.
The only way i got this to work (not flawless) was to make a new callendar in Googlecal and then add it to iCal. This way it autosync when adding/removing nodes.
Edit:
Like described here: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2365828&tstart=30

I found out the following method. Highlight a specific calendar in iCal and go to Edit/export and save it on your desktop. Then go to Gmail calendar and choose import and choose the .isc calendar from your desktop and it will load into Gmail. At least it did for me. I think that the trick is to choose one calendar not the whole list. Let me know.

How to solve sync problem between Outlook calendar and iPhone when reminder is set to _some_ non-standard values?

Hi,
I am having a sync problem between my iPhone/iPad and Outlook calendar events (Outlook 2010).
Here is the description of the problem:
1. In Outlook - please create a new event/appointment (e.g. "Test").
2. Reminder is set by default to 15 minutes. You can change it by using a dropdown menu - please select: "0,5 days".
3. Click on "0,5 days" and change it manually to "14,5 days".
4. Click on "Save & Close".
5. (Do not snooze or dismiss the reminder.)
6. Sync with your iPhone/iPad.
7. Open this new event on iPhone/iPad - you can see that alert is set to "15 minutes before" instead to a correct value that was set in Outlook.
The same problem can be seen if you set the reminder to e.g. "3 weeks" (standard value is "2 weeks").
However, it is interesting that non-standard values like "1,5 days" (and all other until "13,5 days") are synced without any problem.
Does anyone have a solution how to solve this problem (different than the trivial solution of not using those strange values)?
Thanks!

Thanks to another post (https://discussions.apple.com/message/17501071#17501071) I reset the sync history, here is what to do:
Launch iTunes.
Before you hook up your iPhone to the PC and iTunes do this: Go to iTunes Edit menu > Preferences… > select the iPhone > click the Reset Synch History button > click OK.
Connect the iPhone to the PC and let iTunes recognize it.
In the top right corner is the iPhone icon, click on the left side of the iPhone icon > the iPhone menu launches.
In the menu along the top click on Info > make your selections > click Sync button > it gives you a dialog at the top with the steps it’s going through during the sync.
In the top left of the iTunes app > click Exit.

After upgrade to OS5, I can no longer sync to my Outlook calendar

I recently upgrade to OS5 but now I can no longer sync to my Outlook calendar, any advice?

I have this problem too, only I now have Firefox 9.0.1.
I don't know what the developers are doing to Firefox recently, but it makes me want to switch to another browser. Please make it work like it always used too. There were never this kind of problems when you were "thinking" about and fully testing each update.

Problem synching iPod and Outlook calendars

When I sync my iPod (Gen5 60GB) and Outlook calendars, I get a time discrepancy starting October 29, 2006 (the day DST ends). All appointments on my iPod calendar display 1 hour later than in Outlook.
Has anyone else had/solved this problem?
HP Pavilion Windows XP Pro

Yes I am having the same issue. I wish I had not upgraded to 7 because not only I am not able to synch contact (all of them and calendar) I also lost all playlists, movies, original contacts, etc. I cannot reach anyone in phone support and the "genuises" in the store don't have a clue except that they know there are bugs! Why release the **** thing if there are significant problems?
I hope someone has a solution!!

Need help syncing iCal and Outlook 2011 (for Mac) THANKS!

QUESTION: How do I sync iCal and Outlook up again without duplicating any more events, and very importantly, without sending any more email invitations?
I just bought an iPhone. I am trying to get my phone and my MacBook Pro synced up through iCloud.
I realize that I need to have Outlook 2011 and iCal set up for syncing for this to work.
I did this at one point, and it resulted in all of my ALL DAY appointments being duplicated in Outlook, iCal, and on the calendar on my phone - and iCloud sending out duplicate invitations to events.
Then, I turned syncing between iCal and Outlook and deleted all of the duplicates in my Outlook.
Of course, because I haven't set up Outlook to sync with iCal, iCal and my phone's calendar have not changed. There are still duplicates there.
How do I sync them up again without duplicating any more events, and very importantly, without sending any more email invitations?
Thanks in advance for any help you can be!
Cheers!

My iPhone 4 was working fine, synched with Outlook 2011 on my iMac 11.02 through iTunes. Calendar changes also appeared in iCal, even though I don't use iCal - I only use Outlook. Last week I was prompted to update Outlook, which I did successfully. Today, I plugged the iPhone into the iMac to synch and suddenly all Calendar and Contact items are gone from the iPhone and in iCal on the iMac. In iTunes, the option to synch with Outlook in the Info tab ("other") is greyed out. What happened? Why can't I synch the iPhone anymore with Outlook? All the Calendar and Contact info is still on the iMac in Outlook. Help!

Hi
I have the a similar problem - only I can't actually get the calendar to show up. I've added the account and it's showing Mail and Notes but not Calendar. But I'd like it to show the outlook calendar.
I'm going to
Go to settings > mail contacts calendar
select your account that's affected
But under that account there isn't a calendar showing and I can't see any options to add it?
