Sync iCal calendar subscriptions across devices through iCloud?

How do I sync a Google Calendar subscription on my iMac with iCloud Calendar and my associated iOS devices? I subscribe to my google calendar on my iMac (because my University forces me to use google calendar) but cannot see the events on my iCloud account, MacBook or iPhone4.

You can't get a Google Calendar subscription to sync through iCloud.
However you can separately connect to the Google Calendar on each device.
In iOS, simply go to Settings -> Mail, Contacts, Calendars and add the Google account, with calendars switched on.
In OS X, go to System Preferences -> Mail, Contacts & Calendars and add the Google account, with calendars ticked.
Cheers,
Rodney

  • IPad 2 not syncing Calendar to other devices through iCloud

    My iPad 2 is not syncing Calendar events to other devices through iCloud
    Devices:  MacBook Pro (Mountain Lion 10.8.2), iPhone 3GS (iOS 6.0), iPad 2 (iOS 6.0)
    iPad 2 Settings: 
       iCloud settings: Calendars 'ON'
       Mail, Contacts, Calendars: Default Calendar:  Calendar; Sync:  All events
       Shared Calendar Events:  'ON'
       Within Calendar App:  Calendars checked:  Home, Calendar
    iPhone 3GS Settings:
       Identical to iPad 2 settings
    MacBook Pro iCloud Calendar: Home and Calendar checked
    I set up the following test event entries for the same date to see what was coming up in each device above:
      1-From iPad:  iPad to iCloud test
       2-From iPhone:  iPhone to iCloud test
       3-From iCloud.com:  iCloud.com to iCloud test
       4-From MacBook Pro:  Launchpad Calendar App to iCloud test
    (The last two entries may be redundant, but I wanted to cover all possibilities.)
    I then I checked the Calendar App for each of the above devices for "events" 1, 2, 3, and 4 above.
    The iPhone Calendar App had "events" 2, 3, and 4
    The MacBook Calendar App through LaunchPad had "events" 2, 3, and 4
    iCloud.com had "events" 2, 3, and 4
    The iPad, however, had "events" 1, 2, 3, and 4
    Only the iPad had all events entered from all devices.  This creates a problem, of course, since I almost always have the iPad with me, and that's where I make additions/changes to Calendar, Contacts, Notes, and Reminders. Dependability across the Cloud is pretty important!  What can I do to resolve this?
    N.B., Contacts and Reminders synced successfully across all devices through iCloud.  Notes, on the other hand, showed a different problem.  When I created a "Test from devices" note, the iPad and the iPhone showed the additions to the note from each device, including the MacBook.  The MacBook only showed what had been written from the MacBook.  Hmmmm...
    Any help here would be greatly appreciated!

    First check that all your settings are correct, that calendar syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
    Make sure the calendars you are using are in your 'iCloud' account and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud account (you can do this by clicking/tapping the calendar button in the top left corner of the application ), non iCloud calendars will not sync.
    If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your calendars are in the iCloud account, you might try unchecking calendar syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling calendar syncing settings.

  • I cannot see my iCal calendar on my iPhone through iCloud?

    I just upgraded to iOS5 with iCloud etc. I cannot see any events from iCal. I have BusyCal installed and running - do I need to disable that first? Otherwise, how would I get the calendar events to show?

    Hi fredrodgers,
    It sounds like you have some questions about viewing your calendar on your iPhone with iOS 8. Here is a link for you that can explain some different ways you can view your calendar in iOS 8:

  • ICal/Calendars on multiple devices not syncing?

    I need to sync iCal/Calendars on 3 devices. I have iCloud and I thought I's set it up correctly, but maybe not. iCal on MBP (Lion) pushes to iPhone and iPad (both iOS5), but iPhone and iPad do to push out to any other devices. I must not have something set up correctly but I can not find a detailed tutorial or explanation. TIA, I have already spent hours on this...

    On the iPhone I went to 'Settings' > 'Mail, Contacts, Calendars' scrolled down to 'Calendars', > 'Default Calendar' > 'Calendar' and chose (clicked on/checked) an option listed under 'iCloud' instead of 'Yahoo!' (which might be GMail or some other similar mail server for someone else).
    Then, when you actually enter a calendar item on your iPhone calendar, you can choose something other than your default if you want, just be sure it is an iCloud option.
    Follow the same process for your iPad.

    Hi silverk,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I understand the need for all of your calendars to be up to date across all of your devices and how frustrating it can be when they are not syncing as you would expect. In this situation I would suggest reading over and using the attached article for troubleshooting.

  • While looking to upgrade to a new MBP, found out latest version of iTunes does not support wired syncing of iCal and contacts. syncing of these must be done through iCloud. This is a deal breaker for me. are there any workarounds?

    While looking to upgrade to a newer MBP, found out latest version of iTunes does not support wired syncing of iCal and contacts. Syncing of these must be done through iCloud. This is a deal breaker for me for several reasons. Are there any workarounds or do I have to go back to a PC with my tail tucked between my legs?

    When you say wired syncing, are you meaning between an iphone and your mac?

    If you are indeed using 10.5.8 as indicated in your signature you will first need to upgrade to Snow Leopard; this is available in the Online Apple Store. You will then be able to uprade to Lion - again available in the Online Store where you will get a code to enable download from the App Store in Applications. This will enable you to use iCloud and run the latest iTunes.

  • I have a BT internet pop account and have been told this cannot sync across devices with iCloud. Is this true?

    I have a BT internet pop account and have been told this cannot sync across devices using icloud. Is this true and are there ways round it?

    That's correct. iCloud handles only its own email, and has no relationship with other accounts. It's in the nature of a POP service that messages are downloaded from the server to the machine - it was really designed for single-computer use in the days when a second computer was an unheard-of luxury. You can usually set the email client to leave message on the server either permanently or for a specified period, so that other devices can also access the messages, but of course they won't see replies or sent messages.
    IMAP (which is what iCloud uses) is the better protocol to use - the messages live on the server and the various computers and devices read them from there, like webmail - and a service which provides that will behave in exactly the same way as iCloud but independently of it. You should ask BT if they can provide an IMAP version of the account - some ISPs provide both, some don't.

  • Can't sync my calendar on outlook 2010 with icloud

    Hi,
    Hope somebody can help me. 
    I am trying to sync my Calendar from outlook 2010 to icloud to ensure I can access my calendar on the move.  I need to be able to update on my phone and it will appear on outlook, AND enter in to outlook and appear on my phone.  Is that possible both ways??
    I have windows 7 and have installed i cloud, i have ticked the share calendar box and recieved this message "outlook has been setup to use icloud for your calendars and tasks"
    Now looking at all the tutorials I should now be able to go to my calendar and see a icloud tab......unfortunately I do not get one??
    Can anyone please explain how I get this to work as it is driving me mad.
    Thanks!!!

    I had a similiar problem, with my multiple devices.  I open iTunes and when all devices were connected I went to the info section on each device.  Under info I checked the sync calandars. Under that I click all calanders. I then did the apply in low right. I then did the sync function and it fixed it for me.  You have to do this for each device.
    I also checked the device (ipad,Iphone) themselves and change the calander selection to NO Catagory.  Hope this helps.

  • How do i deactivate a device through icloud if the device is broken and i am unable to turn on find my iphone? Also i do not own a apple id as ive been using a family members due to problems when trying to make one?

    How do i deactivate a device through icloud if the device is broken and i am unable to turn on find my iphone? Also i do not own a apple id as ive been using a family members due to problems when trying to make one?

    Hey tyjox,
    Thanks for the question. After reviewing your post, it sounds like you need to deactivate Find My iPhone on a device that does not work. You will need to work with the family member of the account the iPhone is registered with. I would recommend that you use this article to help you resolve or isolate the issue.
    iCloud: Remove your device from Find My iPhone
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2702
    Remove an iOS device you no longer have
    If you no longer have the iOS device because you gave it away or sold it, you need to remotely erase it before you can remove it.
    Sign in to icloud.com/#find with your Apple ID (the one you use with iCloud).If you’re using another iCloud app, click the app’s name at the top of the iCloud.com window, then click Find My iPhone.
    Click All Devices, then select the device.
    Click Erase [device], then enter your Apple ID password. Because the device isn’t lost, don’t enter a phone number or message.If the device is offline, the remote erase begins the next time it’s online. You’ll receive an email when the device is erased.
    When the device is erased, click Remove from Account.All your content is erased and someone else can now activate the device.
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Have a nice day,

  • I can't get my iphone5 to sync the calendar to my mac using iCloud/push?

    i can't get my iphone5 to sync the calendar to my mac using iCloud/push? my contacts list syced and reminders but not the calendar. help plz.

    All okay in Settings and Preferences of iCloud and Calendar on either side, iPhone and Mac? Please double-check, often it's only one checkmark or "on" button missing, or an Apple ID not logged in...
    If okay, go to www.icloud.com and see if the events are in there. That would help narrowing the search.

  • Can I sync iCal calendars from two iMac's together?

    Can I sync iCal calendars from two iMac's together?

    No you cannot sync an iPhoto library between two macs. If you do you will corrupt the iPhoto Library file. iPhoto is a consumer level app, and this feature is not supported.
    What you can do is share the photos but not the library. Each machine will need to have it's own library file.
    The easiest way to do it this is to enable sharing (in the iPhoto Preferences) on both machines (one sharing the library, the other looking for the share). When you do this the shared library will appear in the Source (or left-hand) pane and pics can be dragged from that to the library in the other machine.
