"The server responded with an error" - Calendar

I get the error message "The server responded with an error" every five minutes from the calendar app, along with the following:
"The URL https://calendar.google.com/calendar/dav/[my e-mail is here]/user/ encountered HTTP error 404. Make sure the URL is correct.
I used to sync a google calendar but deleted it because I don't use it anymore. I just want the error message to go away.
Thanks for your help!

My use case is slightly different; we still use our google calendar inside "iCal", and we got the same error text.
Not sure whether this will solve it longer-term, but I simply deleted the Google account from Calendar / Accounts...  and then re-added it. After ~20 minutes, the pop-up has not popped up, so I'm calling this 'success' for now.
Here's how:
In Calendar on the Mac, choose Calendar / Accounts... ( this will open System Preferences / Internet Accounts )
Find the Google account which is syncing its calendar to iCal
Select it (click) and then remove it by clicking the minus icon [ - ] below the list of accounts. Read and confirm that you're removing the account. It's your choice.
Close (quit) Calendar if you have not already closed it. This may not be necessary, but I quit the application just the same.
Back in Internet Accounts, click the [+] to add a new account. Choose Google.
Enter your Google account name and password. Choose Calendar and un-check any that you do not want.
Re-open Calendar and the google calendars should re-sync and display as expected. If you chose any custom colors, you may need to reset them according to your preferences.
I hope this helps. Good luck!

  • OMacbook calendar gets the message "the server responded with an error" and is now not syncing. Any idea?

    I haven't done anything to my Macbook (I don't think) but out of the blue when adding entries to my calendar,  I now get the message "the server responded with an error". Consequently it will not sync with the Cloud. I have an iMac which DOES sync with both iPad and the iPhone.
    Anyone any idea?

    Sorry, no help there. Ical does not stay open long enough to do anything with. All it does is crash and apologise and say it will notify Apple.
    Guess I will just delete it altogether and use google calendar.

  • Problem sharing calendar - "The server responded with an error"

    I'm trying to share a single calendar that contains a lot of entries of meeting rooms at our local library.  I want to share them through MobileMe via an RSS feed.
    When I right-click on the calendar name I get the error in the attached image.  I'd be grateful for a solution or someone to tell me what I'm doing wrong.  Thanks in advance.

  • When opening the Calendar app, I am greeted with a box that says "This calendar can not be refreshed."  After clicking on "OK" another box pops up saying "The server responded with an error."  How can I get rid of these?

    When opening the Calendar app, I am greeted with a box that says "This calendar can not be refreshed," and after clicking ok there is another box saying "The server responded with an error."  How do I get rid of this.  The calendar functions all right, but just have to close both of those boxes after doing any action in the calendar app.

    Please take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried, until the problem is resolved. Back up all databefore making any changes.
    Step 1
    From the Calendar menu bar, select
    Calendar ▹ Preferences ▹ Accounts
    Choose the affected account from the list on the left and uncheck the box marked
    Enable this account
    Then check the box again. Test.
    Step 2
    Make a note of the account settings, then delete the account and add it back with the same settings.
    Step 3
    If you can't add the account, the settings may be invalid. Verify them. How you do that depends on what kind of account it is. If it's a Google calendar and you've activated 2-step verification, you need to generate an application-specific password in your Google account and enter it in place of your old password.
    Step 4
    Quit Calendar. Triple-click the line below on this page to select it:  
    ~/Library/Calendars/Calendar Cache  
    Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
    Services ▹ Reveal
    from the contextual menu.* A Finder window should open with a file named "Calendar Cache" selected.
    Move the selected file to the Trash. There may be one or two other files in the same folder with names that begin in "Calendar Cache". If so, delete those files too.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C). In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

    How do I recify?

    We previously had a similar issue when migrating multiple accounts from MobileMe to iCloud.  The issue was resolved by disabling and then enabling iCal sync through iCloud on our iMacs in System Preferences.
    Always backup your calendar before troubleshooting (File > Export > iCal Archive).
    The following steps are roughly from a Apple Support Community discussion.
    Open iCloud in System Preferences.
    Switch off (uncheck) iCal sync in iCloud System Preferences pane.
    Backup iCal before doing this. You will need to remove calendar data.
    Open iCal and verify the iCloud account is removed in the iCal preferences under accounts.
    Close iCal, reopen System Preference and switch on (check) iCal sync in iCloud System Preferences pane.
    Reopen iCal and verify the iCloud account is enabled in the iCal preferences under accounts.
    At this point if the problem persists you might try completely signing out of iCloud and then signing back in. But remember to backup all related data (iCal, Contacts, Mail, Photostream, etc) before turning off iCloud sync!

  • I recently had to have a migration done. Since then I keep getting a message on my calendar: "The server responded with an error."   Its been asking me to check my ID and password, which I did not change.  What do I do to correct the problem?

    I recently had to have a migration done on my Mac Desktop. Since then I keep getting this message on my MacBook regarding my calendar: "The server responded with an error."   Its been asking me to check my ID and password, which I did not change.  What do I do to correct the problem?

    That's probably the MobileMe or iCloud password. 
    Go to System Preferences > Mobile Me (or iCloud).  If you're not logged-in, do so.  If you are, log out and back in again.

  • "The Server Responded With An Error"

    Y'day I was pasting details of a reserv into ICAL.  it was perhaps too much data.  As soon as I clicked to paste, I got msg "The Server Responded With An Error" & below that was the info I was copying into my calendar.  Then calendar froze.  Then "Force Quit", then reopen Ical & the same msg appears and frozen.  I attempted to drag the msg to trash to no avail.  I rebooted computer.  Everything else is working on my MacBookPro.  I do NOT have Lion.  Thks

    That sounds like something went wrong in the database the governs syncing.
    Restore from your backup to restore your calendar.
    Reset your sync history: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=iSync/3.1/en/9247.html and then follow the steps:
    Go into iCal > Preferences > Accounts and delete the MobileMe account from here.
    If you are using it you can then re-add it and be careful to enter in the correct name and password.
    Remove the following to the trash and restart your computer:
    Home > Library > Caches
    Home > Library > Calendars > Calendar Cache, Cache, Cache 1, 2, 3, etc. (Do not remove Sync Cache or Theme Cache)
    Home > Library > Preferences > com.apple.ical (There may be more than one of these. Remove them all.)
    __NOTE: Removing these files will remove any shared (CalDAV) calendars you may have access to. You will have to re-add those calendars to iCal > Preferences > Accounts.
    Once the computer is back up and running open iCal and test.

  • ICal issue - "The server responded with an error"

    Hi All. I've been having this error pop up on my iCal for the last week after the last iOS update and it's driving me a little batty.
    I don't have any shared calendars, appointments loaded in. I'm just running the iCal calendar frm icloud between my Air and my iPhone.
    Error that pops up reads:
    The server responded with an error.
    The URL ***icloud***/principal/ encountered HTTP error 404. Make sure the URL is correct.
    I haven't changed anything in settings. The appointments are still syncing between my computer and phone however, this pop up comes up every 5-30 seconds on my computer if iCal is open.
    Ideas on how to fix it?

    Is this the pop-up you get?
    The request for account “[email protected]” failed.
    The server responded with
    “HTTP/1.1 502 Bad Gateway”
    to operation CalDAVAccountRefreshQueueableOperation.
    I've never seen it before but am getting it this evening (UK time). Also if I try to log in to MMe Calendar it's not logging in but going to 'find my iPhone' like it did when Mail was mucking about a few weeks back.

  • ICal: The server responded with an error. The event ... was rejected by iCloud because it already exists

    I exported my ical to send to a friend, then opened it to make sure that it would work to find out that it duplicated all my events, this how now left me with an infinite error message of "The server responded with an error. ... event already exists".
    Please help! It took me amny hours to organise my school calender and deleteing it is not an option.

    Yes where is the easy fix? I imported a calendar from my kids school district and whenever I enter a new event the error message for all events pops up.....The solution suggested by one is extremely cumbersome so I did not even try it....

    I am tired of how Yahoo has gotten worse and worse. It is the ONLY account I get problems with DAILY (even after removing and re-adding). AOL will act up once in a while not taking a saved password but accepting it when OK is clicked.... But Yahoo is always responding with such errors.... Today's calendar error is:
    The request (CalDAVAccountRefreshQueueableOperation) for account “Yahoo” failed.

    Me too!  Below is the entire message I receive and it began slowly about a week ago (i.e. the message would pop up periodically).  Now I can't use the calendar without receiving this message.
