  • Syncing iCal with Entourage

    Hi, just a quick question to see if anyone can help me. Is it possible to import all your iCal dates, etc. into Entourage 2004?
    If so how? I seem to be struggling...I can get this to go from Entourage to iCal, but not the other way around.
    What am I dong wrong?
    Any help would be greatly recieved, many thanks.

    Hi vandelim, that is one way to sync between the two applications, provided you have less than 5 different calendars, unless you don't mind spending some time to sort them out, re-categorise them (in Entourage and iCal) etc etc...
    I was toying with that idea also but my office's iCal has about 18 calendars, and some of them have sub-calendars... so it may be quite a pain and hassel to do that almost every other day, just to sync the two calendars.
    I thought about just simply abadoning iCal and just use Entourage (and its calendar) solely, but I just love iCal too much (ha ha) and it's ability to easily sync with my personal .Mac, Palm, iPod etc; And Entourage is purely for office work businesses...
    So that shareware was actually quite perfect for me, I was quite pleasantly surprise that it perform just the way I wanted, just like iSync, it syncs between the two apps, whichever data is the latest... with the launch of the app or using AppleScript... and I am still exploring the 'auto sync' feature that I will set to every night...
    Cheers

  • ICal with Entourage Syncing

    Hi, Can't sync iCal and Entourage calenders. Had this working but upgraded (hah!) to Outlook for Mac and now going back to Entourage won't sync.
    iCal external sync is crashing daily according to crash log.
    Have tried deleting syncs and starting again. No joy. Entourage shows in iCal as calender but no data.
    All software up to date.

    Hello, Julian, original macrat and LizKual ~
    I have the same problem as macrat and Liz.  Syncing (I'm not talking about iSync; I'm talking about Sync Services) between Entourage 2008 and iCal was working just fine until March 16.
    Initially, the Entourage calendar, with all its entries, disappeared from iCal.  But with some help from the folks in the Microsoft support forums, I was able to get the Entourage calendar to show up again on the list in iCal's left-hand column but, unfortunately, still without any events.
    I've been plugging away in the Microsoft forums ever since.  Can you believe this?!  I haven't been able to use the calendar on my iPhone since March 16!
    See:

    http://www.office.mvps.org/syncservices/ical.html#calsync5
    http://www.office.mvps.org/faq_topic/duplicates.html
    I have done every relevant thing suggested on these four pages.  I still don't have any Entourage events showing up in iCal (although Entourage 2 is on the list of iCal calendars) and now I have a massive number of duplicates, triplicates, quadruplicates, etc., appearing in my Entourage calendar.  The only thing on the above-mentioned pages that I haven't yet tried is Syncrospector. (I bought Xcode and then discovered it was probably included as part of Snow Leopard.  Oh well, I'm soldiering on, even though I'm in way over my head.)
    Do you know whether someone has already assembled the code needed to get Syncrospector to eliminate the masses of duplicate calendar entries that Entourage 2008 stands ready to send to Sync Services?  Such info — or, even better, a link — would be much appreciated.  :-)  I've been preparing for this undertaking, but at this rate it could be another two months before I succeed.
    Of course, even after I get rid of the duplicates, I'll still need to find a way to get Sync Services to communicate between Entourage and iCal — which is its job, after all. Suggestions on that point would also be welcome.  Maybe Sync Services is choking on the duplicates and that's why it's not sending anything to iCal.  If so, then maybe Syncrospector will take care of both problems.  I can only hope.
    Thanks very much.

  • Many years ago synced iCal with Microsoft program. Since installing Lion whenever I try to create an event in iCal it flashes up message "Unable to open Microsoft sync services Power PC applications no longer supported." How do I get rid of message?

    Many years ago synced iCal with Microsoft program. Since installing Lion whenever I try to create an event in iCal it flashes up message "Unable to open Microsoft sync services Power PC applications no longer supported." How do I get rid of message?

    Lion no longer supports PowerPC apps. If this is Microsoft Office 2008 (Entourage 2008) then you should disable the syncing services.  (I don't have Office 2008 installed anymore so I don't know exactly what it's called anymore.)  If you have Microsoft Office 2004 or earlier, then it can't be run on Lion at all since Lion removed Rosetta, which is what allowed a PPC app to run on an Intel based Mac.
    Also, I believe Microsoft removed sync services from the current Outlook 2011 (which replaces Entourage) so even upgrading to a newer version of Microsoft Office will not get you back that calendar sync feature.  Supposedly Microsoft is working on a new syncing system, but I wouldn't hold my breath.

  • Still not resolved: cannot sync iCal with either my iPhone or Nokia E71

    I have tried everything that has been suggested in these posts, but neither the iPhone NOR the Nokia E71 want to sync with my iCal calendars (I have 4 set up in one iCal application). Anyone have any ideas on how to resolve this? It used to work fine, but not is suggesting that the iCal calendar is not "writable".

    I have just discovered something else on this issue (which still persists)..when I set up an appointment in the Nokia, it does find calendars to sync with but in Entourage instead of in my iCal? Does this help solve the problem that I have been having syncing iCal with Nokia/iPhone?? Anyone???

  • Can this phone sync perfectly with Entourage notes, Cal, tasks & contacts

    Anyone know if you can perfectly sync perfectly with Entourage notes, Cal, tasks & contacts so I can bin my Blackberry?
    I use my notes extensively to write long memos whist I am out and about and I need it to sync them perfectly with Entourage.
    I think there is some kind of work around with ical etc or something but I have the feeling that notes won't work as there isn't an app for ths capable of handling notes in this way from Entourage.
    If anyone can prove me wrong, I'd like to know.
    pleeeeeeease.... as I really would like an iphone (had to send my original one back a couple of years ago due to this incompatibility)

    Try Missing Sync for iPhone for the notes. If you want to sync the calendar and addresses then try PocketMac

  • How to sync ical with multiple apple devices and android?

    Does anybody have use an android phone in addition to apple devices, and have you figured out how to sync ical with all? (I know there are other calendars that can be used by all, but it means a lot to my husband to stay with ical.)

    I tried Yahoo in the past but had trouble with duplicate entries. However, this was a while ago before Yahoo updated their site and this was with syncing to a Windows computer with Outlook in addition to a Mac so my results might not be typical. Yahoo's worth a shot, but my experience with Yahoo is why I use Google Calendar.
    Beyond that, I don't know of any other "free" services. There are many other hosted calendar sites that could work, but you'd pay something like $5-$20 per month, which is comparable to MobileMe.

  • Have thunderbolt and need to sync ical with google calendar in order to use.  Any suggestions?

    Have a thunderbolt and MacBook.  Need to sync ical with google calendar as thunderbolt supports google calendar.  Any suggestions?

    I think we may be talking about two different things. Thunderbolt is the new two way display port on Mac Book Pros and Apple displays.
    Thunderbolt (originally codenamed Light Peak) is an interface for connecting peripheral devices to a computer via an expansion bus. Thunderbolt was developed by Intel and brought to market with technical collaboration from Apple Inc. It was introduced commercially on Apple's updated MacBook Pro lineup on February 24, 2011.
    Thunderbolt combines PCI Express and DisplayPort into a serial data interface. A single Thunderbolt port supports hubs as well as a daisy chain of up to seven Thunderbolt devices; up to two of these devices may be high-resolution displays using DisplayPort. You can move data to and from peripherals up to 20 times faster than with USB 2.0 and up to 12 times faster than with FireWire 800.

  • Sent messages are not sync'd with Entourage 2008 folders

    1 week into the PC to Mac transition. All of my inbox messages were sync'd with Entourage but not the sent messages. I use comcast mail. I am able to send and receive messages.

    I have a similar occasional problem with an IMAP account using a Comcast Business Class Exchange server. I use Mail and my iPhone to access the account; I'm running OS X 10.6.4 on my laptop but my "sent messages" issue predates the latest release.
    The first time I noticed this issue I thought, "I'll just access my mail via the Comcast web portal. It'll be in the 'sent' folder there." No dice. The "sent" messages simply never stay on the server, yet my recipients get them.
    It's distressing. First, the solution would appear to be a switch to a MS mail client, which I swore off years ago. Second, I rely on having a "sent" message as a record. I switched off IDLE per your suggestion, Ernie, but otherwise I'm in the same boat as the others here. Please keep this thread alive. I'm hopeful that this can be resolved.

  • ITunes doesn't sync iCal with iPhone after upgraded to Mountain Lion

    iTunes doesn't sync iCal with iPhone after upgraded to Mountain Lion. I even tried to use Replace Information On This iPhone and it doesn't work. Any idea guys?

    I'm having the same problem. It's as if my iPhone and MacBook Pro now have two separate calendars.
    Basically, I have a MacBook Pro (Mountain Lion, 13", late 2011) that I sync via USB with an iPhone 4S (iOS 5.1.1). Before upgrading to Mountain Lion, all of my iCal events would sync flawlessly. But none of the events I've created in iCal (Calendars) since upgrading have synced to the iPhone. Likewise, no new events that I create on the iPhone Calendar will sync to iCal. Also, changes to an existing event (even one created before upgrading to Mountain Lion) don't get synced either.
    Everything else seems to be syncing just fine though (music, apps, contacts, etc).

  • Sync iCal with Outlook for Mac 2011

  • Sync iCal with LG VX8550 (New Chocolate)

    Does anyone know how or if I can sync iCal with the new Verizon LG Chocolate phone? If so, how is it done?

    I have no problems syncing both ways - but...
    Are you giving your Mac enough time to sync to the cloud? The mac does not "push", it syncs. If you have the MobileMe sync icon in the main menu on your mac, you can open the preferences and there you can set the time interval between syncs. Your default may be set to 1 hour or 1 day. I'm not sure what the "automatically" setting means, I know that for me it can take a number of minutes. Is it 15 as a minimum?

  • Solution for syncing iCal with Exchange2003

    After two days searching and struggling, I finally have found a solution to sync iCal with Exchange 2003. Outlook 2011 for the Mac connected to an older Exchange 2003 server, gives imap email functionality, but no support for syncing calendars or address books. With DavMail running as gateway on your Mac, you can sync not only iCal, but also calendars on mobile devices such as iPhone and iPad.
    Here I wrote how I did it: http://www.zweerscreatives.nl/?p=372

    Dennis,
    You can try a work around that allows you to sync tasks and contacts to outlook using an alternate profile in outlook.
    Create a new 'dummy' profile (ie CRMOD) in Outlook. You will need to make up a fake email server settings or base it on the IMAP connection to Beehive.
    Once you have created the dummy profile, add the .pst data file to your normal Beehive Profile, this will allow you to access the tasks, calendar and contacts in the CRMOD profile.
    In the PIM Sync setup select your 'dummy' profile as the outlook profile to sync.
    Your users will have two contact, task and calendar folders on thier outlook desktop, but some folks prefer to separate their contact files and tasks anyway. Outlook will display a unified set of tasks if you view 'To-Do List'
    Make sure to check the 'Show this folder as an email address book' in the contact folder properties.
    Hope this helps while you wait for the enhancement!
