Use iCloud calenders in iCal on Leopard

Hey
Is it possible to use iCloud calenders in iCal on Leopard, OS X 10.5?
This is my server settings:
https://p02-caldav.icloud.com/825681252/principal/ (I have change the number for the unic icloud id)
When I type my username and password, iCal find the account but not the calenders...
/ Fredrik

if people can get it working with 10.6, there has to be SOME method to get it working for 10.5.8.
It IS just CALDAV technology, the tech has not changed between 10.5 and 10.6, just the ical interface
has anyone had any success?
Really appreciate any help.
Note: Before posting "you can't sync ical etc in less than 10.7.2", please read the post. Yes you can. it is done using Caldav with 10.6 by finding the server address in your plist. There is NO REASON why this shouldnt be workable in 10.5.8, but I haven't been able to get it going.
Thank you any repliers in advance

Can I use icloud on imac with snow leopard OS10.6.8

Err Can I use icloud with iMac OS snow leopard 10.6.8 ?

This page explains what you can do on Snow Leopard with an existing iCloud account.
http://www.wilmut.webspace.virginmedia.com/notes/icloudSL.html
You cannot create an iCloud account on Snow Leopard.
In addition to SoHo Organizer, Fruux syncs Calendars, Tasks and Contacts between a wide variety of devices (not using the iCloud server) including Snow Leopard and above, Windows Outlook and Thunderbird, Linux Thunderbird, and iOS and Android devices - see their compatibility chart(click the blue 'i' for a caveat about Snow Leopard). It's free for one user, two shares, two devices; above that pricing starts at $20 per month. I haven't tried this.

1st sync of iCal to new 4S went OK. Now new items added on phone not showing up on iCal on Mac. Not using iCloud

The first time I synced my new 4S I was getting duplicate calenders showing up. I deleted all the calenders on my iPhone and picked replace items on my iPhone with items on my computer for iCal. That worked and I got them synced. Now when I sync, my calender on my computer does not get the changed items from my iPhone. I am not using iCloud just syncing with cable in iTunes.

I just had the identical experience. Both laptop and desktop have the same prefs set from within iCal to sync my calendars and address books. I've synced (sunked?) three or four times now, it appears to be working, but when all is said and done I am left with totally blank calendar on my desktop unit. Both have the latest Leopard upgrades. I also selected "merge all data" when prompted.
What gives?

Is it possible to use iCloud between a MBA with Lion and a iMac with snow leopard?

I have an iMac with Mac OS X 10.6.8 and an MBA with Mac OS X 10.7.2. I want to use iCloud to synchronise my pages documents, my calendar and adressbook between the two. Is that possible?

icloud for snow leopard does work if you do the following:
Go to iCal preferences.
Set up new account.
Account Type: CalDAV
User Name: Your MobileMe / iCloud email address
Password: Your password for above
Server Address: p06-caldav.icloud.com

Using iCloud in Snow Leopard

I have spent the better part of a morning researching how to use iCloud with Snow Leopard. I found that iCal Contacts and Mail can be synced with iCloud on Snow Leopard. There are several posts on how to accomplish this. I was sucessful in setting up my iCal to sync with other devices using iCloud on Snow Leopard.
I have tried at least a dozen times to get my Contacts to sync with iCloud and Snow Leopard after finding several posts with explicit instruction as to how to do it. However, every atempt has failed. Each of the instructions I followed were slightly diferent. I have not found one that worked. Blog posts are filled with success stories of how others have gotten it to work, but not me. I can set up Address Book with an iCloud account but when I select iCloud as my list of addresses, all I get is a message saying "no Card Selected."
I am very frustrated that I canot get this to work while others sing praise of their success.
If anyone has a definitive answer as to how to get Contacs to sync through iCloud in OS 10.6 (Snow Leopard) please let me know.
Thank you.

There is no definitive answer, iCloud is not supported on Snow Leopard, so you are reduced to hacks which may or may not work.
Google for Contacts solutions, there are some, some which work, some which don't. And some that do and then don't.
If you want a supported solution then you must use Soho Organizer, it supports iCloud on Leopard through Mavericks. But it's $99

How can I connect iCloud with iCal (Snow Leopard)?

Hey

There are some hacks to using iCloud with Snow Leopard. One of the keys is you must use iCloud as your primary source for Contacts and Calendars. That is, when you want to make additions or changes to either your calendar or contacts you really MUST do it from the web interface to iCloud. Otherwise you may wind up with duplicates.

Install ClamXav and run a scan with that. It should pick up any trojans.

How do I get events and changes created on my IOS Calendar to show up on iCal using iCloud?

Using iCloud I can sync my events from iCal right to my IPod Touch. This is great except for the fact that I rarely create events on iCal. I usually create events using the Calendar app on my IPod Touch because I always have it handy and I feel that has a much more intuitive UI. I was really excited about iCloud being able to sync my events from my IPod to iCal but it doesn't seem to be working. When I create events on iCal they sync to my Calendar right away, but when I create an event on my IPod it doesn't show up on iCal. The same is true for changes made on my IPod to events synced from iCal. the changes don't show up in iCal at all. HELP PLEASE!

The operating system should read 10.8 - sorry...

I am brand new to the Ipad. I can't use ICloud unless I upgrade my 10.5 Leopard. Is there a way to sync documents created in Pages to the IPad without using ICloud?

Hello. I am a newbie to the Ipad. I am currently working with an OS 10.5 Leopard MAC. I understand that in order to use ICloud I would need to purchase OSX Snow Leopard and OSX Lion. I am attempting to avoid the expense and to the extent possible sync my IPad with my MAC. I have created documents on my MAC in pages. Is there a way to have access to those documents on the IPad without using ICloud.
A second question concerns web browsing, sometimes you'll open up a page or image and not know how to go back to the previous page. So do I just close and reopen safari altogether or is there another way to get to the previous page.
Thanks for any guidance you can provide.

Actually you can use iCloud with the Mac running OS X 10.5.8. You don't sync the documents - you upload to or download them from iCloud.
You can open a browser on your Mac - Safari is preferred - log into icloud.com, enter your username and password, click on the iWorks icon, click on the Pages section at the top - and then you can drag documents into the browser window to upload files - and you can select a file in the cloud to download to the Mac. I do this on my iMac at work running Tiger 10.4.11. It's kind of slow - and you will get a warning that you may be using a supported browser - but it works.
In any event, you can use iOS file sharing to send the Pages docs to your iPad. you have to connect to the Mac and do this via iTunes.
iWork for iOS: About iTunes File Sharing
Just tap the arrows in the toolbar in Safari to go back and forth. You can open multiple pages using tabs. tap on the + sign to add another tab in Safari.

HT1386 I am unable to get a two way calendar sync with my iPhone 4s and my mac's ical. iTunes syncs my mac's calendar to the phone, but not the other way. I do not use iCloud and I cannot find any menu for removing sync history as described by others.

I have spent 3 hours trying to get my ical updated on my mac with events added to my iphone calendar. Itunes will sync the calendars from the mac to the phone, but not vice versa. I have read every post which relates to this problem, but I do not use iCloud, there is no iSync app on my mac, and there is no menu to delete sync history under system preferences. My mac is fairly new and is running Mac OS X 10.7.4. I tried to delete the iphone from itunes and start over, but can't even do that. Now what? Any advice short of throwing both devices out the window?

For resetting the sync history on a Mac running Lion - 10.7.x if needed.
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1627
If you see the Sync menu in the menu bar, skip to step 3:
If you do not see the Sync menu in your menu bar, skip to step 7.
Hold the Option key on your keyboard, then click the Sync menu in the menu bar:
if you see the Sync menu but you are unable to open it, skip to step 8.
Choose Reset Sync Services.
Click Reset Sync History.
Test for the original issue. If the issue persists, or if you are unable to open the Sync menu, follow these steps:
In the Finder, choose Utilities from the Go menu.
Open Terminal.
In the Terminal window, type or paste the following command on a single line:
/System/Library/Frameworks/SyncServices.framework/Versions/A/Resources/resetsync .pl full
Press Return.
Quit Terminal after the operation has completed (when Terminal returns to the command prompt with a $).

If you are syncing your iPad with your computer, one way to delete all your contacts might be to connect the iPad to the computer, then in iTunes select the iPad in the sidebar. Once you've done that, go to the Info tab. Uncheck the box for syncing Contacts, then in the lower right, hit Apply. All the Contacts on your iPad will be gone.
You haven't asked for solutions to use Snow Leopard with iCloud, but there are some solutions for Mail, Address Book and Calendar.

Anyone out there purchase Snow Leopard shortly before Apple's offer to get it free? I want to get a refund and purchase Lion so that I can use iCloud.

How to use icloud or my mobile me account on snow leopard 10.6.8

Please help !!

Snow Leopard cannot native use iCloud. To do so you have to login to iCloud from your browser of choice by going to https://www.icloud.com but you can setup Mail to access the mail just setting up the iCloud mail account as another Mail IMAP account.

I don't get any iCal updates on my iPhone since I'm using iCloud, any help?

Yes. On your phone make sure it is set to send messages from your phone number, not your apple id or other email address. That way when they reply it will go to your phone.
