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?

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!

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)?

IPod as a conduit to sync iCal and Outlook 2003 with each other?

I am able to synchronize my work Outlook 2003 calendar and home Mac iCal with the iPod in two separate files on the iPod. I can see them both if I select "All". My questions are:
1. What should I do to sync the PC and the Mac with the same file on the iPod?
2. Is it possible to snychronize the iCal and Outlook with each other via the iPod?
Thanks,

If you mount your iPod on your Mac, navgate to the iPod Calendars folder and double-click on an ics file it will import the calendar into iCal. So you can sync from the PC to the iPod to iCal uni-directionally. If Outlook 2003 can import an ics file then you should be able to sync the other way as well. However, in both cases you will essentially be copying over one calendar with another, not really synchronizing.

Syncing iCal to Outlook Mac 2011

Folks,
I am running the latest version of Lion with Outlook 2011 for Mac. My principal calendar is maintained on Google as it sync quite well with Pocket Informant. Despite many attempts I am unable to sync iCal with Outlook 2011. Google sync quite well with iCal via a utility, but despite setting sync services to on, Outlook 2011 does not sync with iCal. Can anyone offer suggestions here?
Many Thanx

The bottom line is that Office for Mac does not support CalDAV, which is the type of calendar hosted by Google and iCloud. Outlook will only sync calendars with iCal that were:
1. Created in Outlook.
2. Created in iCal "On My Mac".
If a calendar is created "On My Mac", then it is hosted locally (on your Mac) and Outlook can sync to it.
If it's created in Google or iCloud, then it's hosted on a server in the cloud. iCal syncs to that server using CalDAV. Outlook doesn't support CalDAV, so it can't sync with those calendars.

Sync iCal to Outlook

My iCal and Outlook are not in sync. I can put events on Outlook and they move to my iCal. But I can't add to iCal and have it show up in Outlook. What do I need to do?

iCal is client like Outlook is client. Both can be used to get email from servers (POP3, IMAP, Exchange).
You may be able to export email form Outlook and import into iCal; or sync both Outlook and iCal with the same server (Exchange, Google, etc) - but you can't sync Outlook directly with iCal.

How to load iCal and Outlook events?

i'm trying to provide ical and outlook files for guests to an
event. i've linked both an .ics file (for iCal users) and a .vcs
file (for Outlook) from the website, yet when a user clicks on
either link, code is displayed onscreen as opposed to a prompt to
download the file. is there a way to launch these links as file
downloads w/o having to zip them? numerous calendar and invitation
sites provide this feature, but they are dynamically creating the
.ics and .vcs files - though they do end up as downloaded files.
(www.cindyandkenny.com/test > click 'when & where' to
see the iCal and Outlook links)
thanks.

Harbs - you there?
I can;t find any help for this elsewhere on the web - would really apprciate a response.

Why can I no longer sync iCal and contacts without iCloud?

I dont use iCloud basically because by doing so all your data - specifically your contacts and calendar - gets uploaded to an Apple server where it sits for ever. If you decide you want to stop using iCloud (like you decide for some weird reason to use windows instead...or you move somewhere where there's no internet - its possible) it deletes your data from the device you have unsubscribed from. This basically means once you are on iCloud there is no going back. Apple basically acts as if it owns you and your data and inorder to access it (excude me but my calender and contacts list belongs to me) its obligitory to use Apple and iCloud...if you dont it gets deleted and is gone for ever.
So I sync via USB/WiFi...but now after 'upgrading' to Mavericks this option is no longer permitted? You MUST use iCloud.....WHY?? - I dont want to!
I run a business and use iCal to make all my business bookings - these used to sync easily between my iPad and my iMac. Now it doesnt unless I hand over the rights to all my data for all enternity to Apple inc.
This is my stuff and it doesnt belong to Apple - I want to keep it that way
How can I sync iCal and Contacts without signing away ownership of my diary and contacts to Apple?
Am I going to have to ditch my Mac?? Why wasnt this more widely publicized??
Anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks

Thanks for the reply Arthur. Actually, I just got off the phone with an apple rep telling me you can't downgrade, and that yes, apple actually IS forcing you to use iCloud - if, that is, you actually want to be able to sync your contacts or calendar. Apparently you are special and know something different, so please enlighten the rest of us.
Here is one way
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-6311
Here is another
http://www.apple.com/au/osx/server/
Here is yet another
If your Mavericks came with anything other than Mavericks pre-installed
OS X Mavericks: Revert to a previous OS X version
Also there are a host of other Cloud services you can use. You do not have to use iCloud at all. Although there ARE over 320+ million iCloud presently active, so it is extremely popular with users.

Can iCal and Outlook share calendars with each other?

Can you iCal and Outlook share calendars with each other?

Because Apple has chosen to not make this a feature of iOS devices.

Syncing across iPhone, Google Cal, iCal, and Outlook

My personal computer is a Macbook 13" from 2007, running Leopard version 10.5.8
At work, I use a Dell using XP (for now- upgrading to Windows 7 in a couple weeks) and keep my schedule through Outlook.
I want to sync my Outlook, home iCal, and iPhone's iCal all together, each calendar displaying identical information. I want to be able to update and edit my calendar at work, at home, or on the go.
How can I accomplish this?
Thank you,
Kevin

Hmm, I think the reason it works for me is because I went the other way around. I subscribed to my Google calendar from iCal a long time ago, but not my iPhone. When OS 3.0 came out, the Google calendar in iCal got synced into my iPhone as a subscription automatically.
So, you'll likely need to subscribe to your Google calendar within iCal to have it in iCal, and there are very specific instructions how to do that on Google's Calendar support pages.
Once you do that and sync your iPhone, I'm guessing you might end up with a duplicate because of the subscription you've already created on your iPhone. I'm not sure it'll matter which one you delete, but I mention this possibility because I haven't tested out all the possibilities yet.

Sync Entourage and Outlook

Hello,
I am currently using a POP3 email account and I would like to be able to access emails and also share calendar, contacts and tasks between MS Outlook on a Windows XP and Entourage on OS X. I have not been able to find a way to read the same email on both computers.
Any ideas?
Cheers

G'day, and welcome to the forums.
Although both products are from Microsoft, there is no way to do what you want using a POP 3 email account.
You can sync Entourage to Address Book/iCal and then use MobileMe to sync calendars and contacts between OS X and Windows. However tasks won't come through for Outlook.
If you want mail synchronisation, the best bet is to use an IMAP email account (such as Gmail, Fastmail or MobileMe).
Cheers,
Rodney

Sync iCal with Outlook

Is it possible to link iCal with Outlook?

Welcome to the Apple Forum, choateco!

I have tried everything I know to sync outlook for mac calendar with ical.
It would help to know what "tried everything" means. What version of Outlook for Mac do you have? It worked fine for me with OS 10.6.8 as well as OS 10.7.4 now with Outlook 14.2.3.
Perhaps you could try the steps listed in Apple's Knowledgebase article and/or the MS Support article regardless of what the problem stated is. Also, if you have not already done so, try the Microsoft Community as it is a Microsoft issue.
