Instead of signing up for calendar, sign up your yahoo e-mail. Then go to system prefs>Mail, Calendar and Contacts
There you can check Calendar and if you wish un-check e-mail.
Calendar has been syncing with no errors since I did this.
Success!

Sync iphone with yahoo calendars

I use yahoo mail along with yahoo calendars. The new iphone allowes me to since with the mail, but only gives me an option to sync with outlook for calendars.
Is there a way to do this?

You can synch yahoo calendar to your iphone if you have an iMac and Yahoo Calendar Beta. First log into your yahoo calendar, then search for yahoo calendar beta, then switch to the beta calendar (be warned, if you switch any calendar entries made in beta will be lost if you go back to classic calendar). Then go to iMac open iCal and add a new calendar. Add yahoo calendar (instructions can be found by searching support for the yahoo calendar beta url). It's not real time, but it does get your events to your iphone.

Desktop Manager fails to synch with Yahoo Address Book on my 8300

I have been synching both Yahoo Address Book and Yahoo Calendar successfully for months. Suddenly, Address Book no longer synchs. Yahoo calendar still works. The problem occurs aftew Desktop reads all the contacts. It halts while "Synchronization Progress...reading from Yahoo Address Book" displays. That message has displayed for up to an hour with no progress. I then disconnect and halt Desktop. I can still synch Yahoo Calendar. I have not updated desktop or device software. Anybody have any suggestions?

No Sync with Yahoo Address Book Workaround:
Work Around for Blackberry to Yahoo Sync when Address Book Sync Gets Stuck:
I've had the Address Book on my Yahoo Sync hang on two different occasions. The first time was late 2009 and the second was late Jan 2010. The first time the problem fixed itself. This time, no such luck yet. So if you are having the same problem, here's a work around that will allow you to update both your Yahoo and Blackberry Contacts and keep them in sync.
Step 1: From Yahoo, EXPORT your contacts to Windows Contacts (I did this in Vista and it also works for Windows 7 -- it should also work for XP, but the export may be a different expension). You will want to export using the 'vCard, Zip of .VCF files'. his will create a zip file of all your contacts with in the vcard format: (.VCF)
Step 2: Some manual labor in this step, but you will only have to do it once OR you can try a .vcf to .contact file converter program like:
http://www.vcardconverter.com/ that will cost you 19.95. Open each contact in the zip file. It will show you the contact data and there will be a button that you can click to ADD TO MY CONTACTS. Do this for each contact in the exported zip file. Or but the program.
You now have your Yahoo Address Book converted over to Window Contacts.
Step 3: In the Blackberry Desktop Manager change your synchronization setting for your address book from Yahoo to 'Window Address Book/Mail'. Leave the Calendar, MenoPad, and Task to sync with Yahoo. So you should have:
Calendar sync to Yahoo
MemoPad sync to Yahoo
Address Book sync to Windows Address Book/Mail
Task sync to Yahoo
Step 4: You now can perform a sync to you Blackberry Device. (But read the notes below first)
SOME IMPORTANT NOTES:
This allows you to get your contacts into your Blackberry and to sync them with your Windows Contacts. You can make this a three way sync where you also keep your Windows Contacts and Yahoo Address Book in sync. It just adds an extra sync. NOTE: If you are going to do this then pay the 20 bucks and buy the program above or find a program to convert .contact files to vcf (vcard) files. I've decided to buy the program above because it allows me to import and export all the contacts at one time, which is what you will need to use the import / export tools in Yahoo Contacts
I did the sync of the address book in steps. I was lucky / unlucky because I tried to do a Blackberry software upgrade that failed and it wiped out all of my contacts, calendar, tasks, and memos; so when I did my first sync, I when only from the Blackberry Desktop Manager to my Blackberry. I then changed my sync to be a two way sync. I only mention this because I don't know if going from Windows Contact to Blackberry would create duplicate entries in your Blackberry and Windows Contact Manager. Maybe someone can check this out and post. Anyway, I would suggest trying the sync with only a few contacts to check it out.
You don't need to worry about the folder that the Blackberry Desktop Manager will store the contacts. It assumes the 'Contacts' folder on you machine. As far as I could tell, there was no way to change this destination anyway.
ALTERNATIVE APPROACH:
If I was to do this all over, and I had my contacts still on my blackberry, I would most likely do the following (in theory):
Step 1.
Change the sync for contacts to be with Windows Address Book, not Yahoo.
Step 2.
Sync the contacts so they would appear in the Windows Contacts.
Step 3. Then worry about syncing Windows Contacts with Yahoo (see above)
Good luck,

Events made on iPad calendar(through yahoo account) don't sync with yahoo calendar

Events made on iPad calendar (through my yahoo account) don't sync with yahoo calendar on the Web. I'm on latest iOS both on iPad and iPhone4. Any ideas?
Thanks

Raymondo1,
Glad this helpped!
I am a PC user so cannot help with your Mac interfaces. I can sync (crudely) my Windows 7 Address book with iTunes. But, I cannot sync my Windows Mail or Calendar with iTunes (unless I have Microsoft Exchange).
Microsoft Exchange is not available to me. This is why I use the iPod to sync with to Yahoo for email and Calendar.
The best I can tell, iTunes does NOT support an interface with Yahoo.
Have a nice day.

I'm having trouble losing sync with yahoo calendar

Is anyone else having trouble with yahoo calendar? It used to work consistently, but now it stays in sync for a while and then goes out. I've tried contacting Yahoo support, but they say that they've told me everything they know and I have to work with Apple. Of course, my support has expired, so now what do I do?
In order to get sync back, I have to delete my Yahoo account from my iPod and then re-add it. It stays in sync for a while and then goes out again.
This started happening after iOS 5 came along.

It just just says, "A problem occurred. The webpage couldn't be loaded.

I am using the lastest version of the yahoo and blackberry software. I am sure I am not the only user trying to sync PCand Blackberry informantion!!
Help to resolve this issue would be much appreciated.
Many thanks DBF

Someone suggested that I switch to syncing to/with Google calendar ... but I don't know how to do that since it's not in the list of options that come up when I say I want to configure sync settings. Do you know how to do that?
I received a cryptic email response from Yahoo saying they no longer support syncing with Yahoo calendar ... but implying that they may still be working on it and the option may start working again if they get a solution. I responded that I'd like to know if they fix the problem instead of having to try every few days, but got no response to that request.
The iPhone 5 is supposed to come out next month. Maybe it's time to switch brands of smartphones.

I can't sync my new mac iCal events with Yahoo Calendar

I just download an icalendar format file to my iCal account. The events show up under my yahoo account calendar, but the events are not synched with the yahoo calendar on the web, or on my iphone or ipad for that matter. Any ideas?

Sounds like you haven't updated your Sync account for the new version of Sync that was released with Firefox 29.
See this KB article - [[How to update to the new Firefox Sync]]

Why are some of my recurring events not synching with my calendar on my ipad2?, Why are some of my recurring events not synching with my calendar on my ipad2?

I use multiple calendars and one of them includes all my recurring events such as birthdays, anniversaries, etc. That calendar shows as included in my iCloud and it seems that all of the events synch with my iPhone, but very few of the recurring events synch with my iPad2. I can't identify any difference between those that do synch and those that don't.
Any suggestions??

Did you try to deselect all apps, sync to remove them all.
If you where able to remove all of them, sync them back.
Resetting the sync history in iSync may also be helpful.

Problem Synching with Google Calendar

Having difficulty syching 8900 with Google calendar. Downloaded google synch to phone. When I check the Calendar Properties it show Wireless Synchroniztion as "No". It won't let me change this.. When I try to synch. I get the message that says"Login failed, due to network problems, please check your settings" Service is with Tmobile. Not sure which settings are not right.

The calendar options should say no. It will only say "yes" is if you're on a BES. I think I had that error when I first started using Google Sync a while ago. I think I just uninstalled and reinstalled the program after getting that error a few times and then I was able to log in and setup the program

Syncing with Yahoo Calendars

I just got the newest version of iCal and was so excited to sync it to my long time Yahoo calendars. However, when they synced, all of the Yahoo calendar events are 5 hours too early. I would like to figure out how to fix this.
Thanks-
Sonja

Hi,
Sorry, I should have been more detailed with my instructions.
I actually meant "File > Export > Export". Then save the file to your Desktop. In the Finder Control-Click the file. Then select 'Open with…" from the contextual menu that should appear. From the sublist select "Other", then navigate to "TextEdit" from the next window. The file should then open in TextEdit. Tehn search for a line in the middle of the file starting DTSTART.
Best wishes

ICalendar synching with multiple calendars

I work for different people and therefore need to keep different calendars for each person. I currently color code the different people, however, I am now looking to be able to synch up with everyone's calendars using their .Mac accounts. I have an iMac at home, which currently has 3 different users set up (one for me, one for my husband and one for shared/admin use). Question: in order to keep calendars separate and be able to synch with my various client's .MAC accounts, do I create additional users in order to keep the calendars separate?

Thank you for your response. Here's the thing:
I work for different people and keep their separate calendars. Therefore, when I synch to their separate .Mac to update their separate calendars, I do not want to synch everyone's calendar information on their .Mac account, but only the information pertaining to them individually. I have generally done this from their own office computers, but since I do some of this work from home, I would like to be able to synch the calendars onto my own laptop as well.
The question is whether I need to create different user within my own laptop for each client, to do this, or is it possible to only synch a particular within one user. Or
Does that make sense?

Possible to synch with two calendars?

I use an iPod touch to synch with my home Mac with my personal calendar. Can I also sync with my work Outlook calendar but keep the home and work calendars separate so that when syncing at home my work items don't show up on the mac and when syncing at work the home items don't show up on the corporate system?
Any way to do this syncing at work without iTunes?
Thanks.

No, you'd need to use iTunes at work to sync, unless you are able to access your work email/calendar via Exchange (but then you'd lose the iTunes sync capability at home and have to switch to MobileMe for iCal).
Alternatively, you can use a utility like O2M or the free iAppointto export your Outlook calendar as a .ics file, bring it home on a flash drive or email it to yourself, then import that into a new calendar on your Mac and sync it that way. Note that this option has some difficulty with recurring appointments in Outlook and Leopard's iCal.

How do I synch with google calendar?

I can synch my google calender to my iPhone 5 calender, but I can't get it to work the other way around. I've tried setting up an Exchange account, a CalDAV account, and my standard Gmail account (that I started with) and none of it changes the problem. Any advice?

Sorry
I asked the wrong question
I realize if I do it that way I end up with two calendars, mobile me and google. I want the mobile me and google to be one and the same. Is that possible? So when I synch with my phone and mobile me it updates google but not in a separate calendar.
When I followed the import directions on google I ended up with two calendars on my phone, mobile me and google. I want them to be merged.
Thanks

Synching with Zimbra Calendar

I'm trying to synch with Zimbra, and it's asking for an iCal URL. Anyone know where to find this, or what specifically this means? Does it require a .mac account?

Chris,
An iCal URL should be available for any published calendar which is published either on .Mac or a private WebDAV server. The URL will appear when the calendar is published.
You may have better luck obtaining more thorough answer from Zimbra Support.
