Syncing ical to Entourage -- only first event syncs!

Hi. I set up Entourage to sync with iCal. This created an Entourage calendar in iCal, so far so good. I created a new event in iCal and put it in the Entourage calendar. Go over to Entourage and it has synced up nicely. Great so far.
Then I go back to iCal and change all my stuff over to the Entourage calendar. Go back to Entourage. Nothing. I go to the Calendar pull-down and select SyncNow. Nothing. The one event that synced ok before is still there, but nothing else. I go back to iCal and create new events and these wont sync.
What happened?! Help!
Thanks.

Can you give a bit more information about what you've done? When you say you have gone back to iCal and changed all your stuff to the Entourage calendar, do you mean that you changed individual events to the Entourage calendar in iCal. Does that mean this is the only calendar left in iCal?
If so, then my suggestion is:
1) back up your iCal calendar - File, Back up iCal
2) ensure the calendar name in iCal is "Entourage"
3) go to Entourage preferences and untick "synchronise events & tasks with iCal"
4) quit Entourage, open Entourage and tick "synchronise events & tasks with iCal" again
5) you will be asked before it syncs how you wish the sync to occur and you should select to have iCal override Entourage.
If I'm right you should end up with a calendar in the Entourage application which reflects your Entourage calendar in iCal.

  • Hello, as I do in iCal to print only the events

    Hello,
    as I do in iCal to print only the events of a certain period of time without seeing me days without commitments?
    is it possible?
    thanks in advance

    Have you tried to open the last message in a new window?
    If that includes the messages you do not want to print, you could limit the printing to e.g. the first page (in the print dialog).

  • ICal and Entourage are no longer syncing

    I bought the Missing Sync and may have done something in iCal to mess up the partnership. I deleted all the calendars in iCal which in turn wiped my Calendar and my tasks in Entourage. However I then restored iCal from a backup which has not restored the calendar and tasks in Entourage. I have turned the sync services on and off multiple times to no solution. I posted in the Entourage newsgroup but did not get a reply. What can I do to get Entourage and ical syncing again?

    Entourage 12.2.4
    OSX 10.6.2
    iCal Version 4.0.1 (1374)
    I am having a very similar problem. Mine stopped sync'ing after my upgrade to Snow Leopard. Shortly thereafter I updated Entourage during a Microsoft update. The update prompted to reset the sync properties as it does every time I've updated recently and not surprisingly something broke. I spent 6 hours last night researching and trying every "fix" I could find. Including resetting sync, deleting directories associated with Sync, iCal and caches. So much so that I can do it in my sleep now. If our exchange server was new enough to sync with iCal and Mail I would just toss Entourage and move on. However, it (Entourage) is my only option at this point.
    The frustrating thing is that with my best friend Google, I am able to fix almost anything on my Mac, not this. Here are some of the errors logged in my console related to my last sync attempt. The only thing I think I have not tried is to reinstall Entourage. Is that my only hope?
    Has anyone else seen this issue?
    Is there a way to write an apple script to show me one of the "record" in error? I don't mind deleting it.
    Thanks,

  • Sync iCal to Entourage

    I use iCal as my calendar, and want to use Entourage just to print the calendar, as its print options are FAR better than iCal's. So I went into Entourage preferences and selected "Replace Entourage items with Sync Service".
    The effect of this is that a 2nd calendar gets created in iCal ("Entourage"), but no events show up in Entourage itself.
    How do I get the iCal events to show up in Entourage's calendar?

    Hi, Roger.
    See this tip on Mac OS X Hints. The "secret" appears to be that only events added to the "Entourage" calendar in iCal are synced with MS Entourage.
    Good luck!

  • Syncing iCal using .Mac causing duplicate events

    I just got a new PowerBook laptop with Leopard. I also have an iMac running Tiger.
    I synced the new PowerBook and iCal looked great. Then I added a couple of events on the PowerBook and synced again with .Mac.
    The next time I synced my iMac, I had literally hundreds of duplicate events.
    I went through and deleted all the duplicates and synced the iMac to make sure .Mac would be clean without duplicates.
    The next time I used the PowerBook and synced it, I ended up with duplicates on the iMac again.
    I was keeping my iCal synced with my old laptop running Tiger and never had this problem.
    Does anyone have a fix? Help!!!

    I stumbled on this discussion and am chiming in because I've just upgraded to Leopard on my home laptop, and this a.m., after trying to sync iCal on my work computer (running 10.4.11) with my .Mac account and my home computer, iCal has crashed repeatedly when the "Resolve Conflicts" window comes up.
    Interestingly, all of the "conflicts" actually appear to be identical duplicates, although I can't be sure because it's crashed before I can get beyond the 3rd or 4th "conflict" every time.
    This is the first time I've tried to sync the calendars between the two computers since I installed Leopard over the holidays. Because I work for a big university, it'll be a while until they update the system on my work machine...
    Anyone else experiencing these duplication-related crashes? I'm wondering if I'm going to have to wipe one of my calendars clean.

  • Syncing iCal to entourage, syncing iCal to entourage

    Syncing issues.  I imported Entourage to iCal and now it has disappeared in Entourage.  When I go to Sync (check combine in preferences) nothing happens.  Please help?

    These links explain the process of synchronizing Entourage with the Sync Services framework, and thus with iCal.
    http://www.microsoft.com/mac/products/entourage2004/using.aspx?pid=usingentourag e2004&type=howto&article=/mac/library/howto_articles/office2004/ensyncservices.xml
    Here is a link to an independent location where specific issues regarding Entourage synchronization are addressed:
    http://www.entourage.mvps.org/faqtopic/syncservices.html
    The operation of the Sync Services framework, the truth database and sync clients—the 'bigger picture' if you will—is explained here:
    http://developer.apple.com/macosx/syncservices.html
    Keep in mind that iCal—while supporting multiple calendars—has no equivalent to the categories assigned in Entourage. [A similar issue arises for Palm users using iSync and the iSync Palm Conduit, because of this limitation.] Entourage synchronizes data with only one calendar, matching entries one-to-one to an Entourage calendar in iCal.

  • Syncing photos from Aperture, only first photo in one Event

    When I sync photos from Aperture to iPad I find all the photos in "Photo" but only the first photo under "Events". The same happens with iPod touch and Photos in iWeb.
    Where is the setting for getting all the photos in one particular event? The photos have been transferred to iPad but not to the Events with the exception of the first one. When I click on an Event in Aperture the particular Event opens with all the photos contained.

  • 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

  • Sync iCal and entourage

    Entourage and iCal have stopped syncing. Old entries are Ok but any new Entourage entries are not showing up on iCal and mobileme.
    Any thoughts on how I can resolve this?
    Thanks
    Phillip

    Okay, I've finally gotten my sync to happen, and my calendar info is current. But I needed to enable the "MobleMe" trial to make things happen.
    I was finding that the sync between Entourage and iCal wasn't happening any more (and right now, it's a guess that the sync broke after the Snow Leopard update).
    When I went into iCal and looked at its prefs, the checkbox in the 'General' tab had a grayed-out option that read "Synchronize iCal with other computers and devices using MobileMe."
    In previous versions, this was a selectable option, but it's not selectable now.
    I had to enable MobileMe (taking advantage of the 60-day trial), and set up an account. After doing so, the afore-metioned option became selectable, so I clicked the checkbox.
    After performing a sync, I found that my calendar items were now available on my iPhone.
    I hope that this is just a bug, and not an oversight on Apple's part. There are lots of people like me who don't want or need MobileMe.
    Hope this helps!

  • 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.

    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.

  • First sync with desktop manager for mac: only 300 contacts synced instead of the 1100

    I have a Curve 8310. version 4

    I have just tried for the first time to sync with desktop manager,.only 315 contacts synced of the 1100.
    The apple  people recommend using Mark/Space" missing Sync" but I am reluctant to do this as the reviews are mixed.

    Hi there.
    Have been using my BB Pearl 8100 on and off since Oct 08.
    I have successfully synced with a Vaio (XP Pro) using BBDM (up to version 4.6) as well as iMac OS 10.5.8 using PocketMac for BB v4.1 and now BBDM for Mac. Have synced with iCal, Mail, Contacts (albeit 647)
    PocketMac can be a little temperamental, but not that much of a prob as when i downloaded it was free (shareware) and the only alternative was Missing Sync.

  • Can't sync BB with OS X 10.5.4 using iCal or Entourage

    Hello!
    I've been a Blackberry user for a couple of years and have recently switched from Microsoft Outlook to the Apple.  I cannot get PocketMac sync to work properly with either iCal or Entourage.  I can sync from the Blackberry to the Apple, so my device is recognized, but not the other way around (either using the merge or 'overwrite device' options).  Pocketmac acts as though sync is occurring and displays no errors, but no changes are made to the Blackberry handheld.  Entering everything only on the handheld is a major pain!
    I've tried syncing to iCal and to Entourage individually and neither seems to perform sync BACK to the handheld.
    PocketMac suggests running a clean sync utility or rebuilding the Entourage database, both of which I have done to no avail.
    Does anyone else have suggestions for syncing with an Apple, short of purchasing an iPhone?
    HELP and THANKS!  K.

    I currently do this with an iMac along with EyeTV and Time Machine. There used to be limitations with older versions of iLife, but I think it was just the installer being difficult, but those are no longer present in the shipping versions of Server and iLife. Time Machine might be considered an issue because by default, Time Machine doesn't back up a few directories which would not have any bearing on normal OS X, but is a bit daunting with OS X Server, specifically /var/spool/ as this is where all mail is stored. You can override this behavior by modifying the Exclusion file in /System/ which some would consider a no no.

  • 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
    LRB55

    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.

  • Two Macs syncing iCal problems

    I have an Intel iMac at the office and a G4 Powerbook at home. I want to sync iCal on both computers and also sync to my iphone. On both computers, iCal takes forever to sync (if it does) and seems to stall or hang up the computer while syncing. How can I erase all events in iCal or make it faster to speed up syncing?
    I also have way too many contacts in address book transferred from Filemaker Pro. Searching is painful on the iPhone.

    The fundamental issue here with synchronizing your calendaring data is that the iPhone, and its iTunes interface to the synchronization framework, are not intended by Apple to be synchronized to more than one Macintosh desktop or portable machine. This is true of all Mac OS X synchronization processes: a device like an iPhone is not meant to serve as a 'data carrier' between computers, and places your data at substantial risk.
    Instead, you should synchronize your computers using .Mac Sync or use a third-party solution like SyncTogether™ from Mark/Space.
