Using Ical with two iphones

I have a mac mini which both my wife and I use. We both have iphones and we used to sync Ical through my mobileme account to both phones. We could both make changes to the calendars and the changes would change on each others phones automatically. I can't get this to work with Icloud though.. Please can someone help.

Iphone will sync/manually mange music with one and only one computer.
If you sync/manage to another, it will erase the content from the iphone and replace with content from the new computer.
This is by design and intentional.

  • How to using ical with two separate iphones

    hello
    trying to understand and learn how to use Ical with 2 different Iphones, using Icloud.

    To sync iCal across computers, the calendar needs to be published to a server. This can be a local server that you can set up, or it can be something like google or microsoft exchange or apple's mobile me. The best bet may be to wait until fall and see what iCloud offers!
    Sharing your screen can be accomplished a few different ways. You can have two iChat accounts set up, and have one logged in on each computer, and then use iChat's screen share feature. The other way is to go to System Preferences, Sharing, and then check the box next to Screen Sharing. You may have to adjust some of the settings in there, but give that a shot.

  • Sync ical with two iphones

    We have two iPhones.  I have a long-time paid iCloud account that the whole family has used for years for iTunes purchases etc.  Everything syncs fine between devices and my phone.  Now that my wife has a phone, we want to continue to sync calendars and contacts.  But we don't want to have each other's pics and reminders show up on both phones.  This is what happens when I use my iCloud to set up her phone.  So I set up her own ID. 
    Is it possible for us to sync our calendar and contacts?  Or would it be better to put her phone under my original acount and somehow configure the sync to only sync  what we want?   What about iTunes?  Does that work independently of the ID I set up on her phone?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.  I imagine this is pretty common among couples and families.  What does everyone else do?
    Thanks,
    Nick

    Your link was helpful. I reviewed the prefs on the addressbook on the MacBook Air, and they are set as iCloud is the default account. And iCloud is enabled. The only other account is the On My Mac, not synced with any other service. The All Contacts entries are different than the entries on the iPhones.
    Each iPhone is set with iCloud on, in PUSH mode with 15-minute Fetch as well. It doesn't matter whether they are only 3G modem, or on the same wi-fi as the laptop. The router is a NOVATEL MiFi 5-port wireless on Verizon. The entries are different on the laptop and the iPhones (both of which have the same data).
    I edited the laptop SysPrefs/iCloud account settings to [email protected] The laptop iCloud account is [email protected], and the two iPhones are [email protected]
    I see in my original posting this was reversed. The status is: me.com for the laptop. mac.com for the iPhones. Laptop & iphones do not update from the default info on the laptop, nor vice versa.
    I have all features on the iCloud selected except for MAIL and NOTES on the laptop. All settings in the iCloud on the iPhones are on except for MAIL.

  • How do I sync iCal with two iPhones?

    Simply put, I want to share my schedule with another person via iCal through iCloud. Can I just add an account to iCal and then it just works, or what more do I have to do? I want to be able to sync two different iphones on two different macs to the same calendar. PLEASE HELP. a Yes or No would suffice, and if YES please tell me how to do it! Thanks!

    You don't.  I asked Steve Balmer (CEO of Microsoft) and got this reply from his staff:
    Thank you for your feedback and your interest in Outlook for Mac 2011.
    Steve's office forwarded me your mail and asked me to reply. Outlook 2011
    syncs with Exchange and Office 365 calendars, but as you point out there
    is no consumer calendar service that syncs with Outlook 2011. Here's what
    I do to work around the lack of direct sync: I keep my family calendar on
    Hotmail Calendar, which works great through Safari on my Mac (and also
    other popular browsers like Chrome), and syncs directly to my iOS devices
    and my PC. I understand your frustration with not being able to see your
    personal calendar directly in Outlook for Mac. Contrary to your
    impression, we've never promised to add this feature, but we strongly
    consider customer feedback like yours as we plan future versions. Thanks
    again for your feedback and for taking time to write.
    Thank you,

  • Using iTunes with two iPhones between two computers

    I have an iPhone 4 that I use primarily on my Windows laptop and my wife has an iPhone 3G that she uses with our iMac. We have both of these devices set to Manually manage music and videos. If I connect my iPhone 4 to the iMac the checkbox to Manually manage music and videos is unchecked. If I check the box and click on Apply, it tells my that my iPhone is synced with another iTunes library. Do you want to erase this iPhone and sync with this iTunes Library?" How can I connect my iOS devices to any computer without running into this problem.

  • Synching ONE MobileMe calendar with TWO iphones

    I keep reading that it's possible to synch a MobileMe calendar with TWO iphones but cannot find out HOW to do so. I presume that SHARING a calendar is different from SYNCHRONISING a calendar. Sharing a calendar seems to me to be cumbersome in that it involves sending an invitation which then must be specifically dealt with by the recipient. SYNCHRONISING a calendar though presumably means updating a calendar entry automatically. It works with one iphone. How can it be made to work with two iphones? Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

    That's it.

    ANything you add will appear on the other phone and visa versa
    my OG iPhone won't sync with my MobileME calendar. Is that because the OG phone can't be updated to ios4?
    And if that's the problem is there any alternative for syncing the OG iPhone's calendar (which is now empty)?

  • I have purchased a eos 6d. When I use it with the iPhone app the connection dies after about five m

    I have a 6d and when I use it with the iPhone app the camera turns off after about five minutes and the connection is lost. So when I am photographing wild life I keep having to break cover to reactivate the connection. Is this correct or is there a way to keep the connection alive.

    You just need to go into the menu and set the camera's sleep mode to "off" or "never". It sounds as if it's currently set to 5 minutes.
    Letting the camera sit active continuously, i.e. preventing it from going into sleep mode, will drain the battery(ies) a lot faster. I don't have a 6D, nor do I leave them on full time (in fact I set sleep mode to a very short duration, since tapping any button on the camera quickly re-awakens it).... so I really don't know how quickly a battery will drain. But you might be prepared with spares. If battery life is too short for you purposes, you could add a battery grip which will double the battery capacity.

    integrtion Scenario using BPM with two sender and multiple receiver
    How many Application Components are required?

    Hi Vinod,
    1) In integration repository you can have one or many software components it depends on your landscape orchestration
    2) In integration direcory you need at least one service for bpm and one or many for each system in your bpm
    also each connection between systems and bpm must have receiver determination and so on.
    Advice: Please treat BPM as a separate system.
    best,

  • How do I back up Contacts on my  iPhone 3 I got back in 2008? With MobileMe closing down, is there a way I export my Contacts info to my laptop. Alternately can I use iCloud with an iPhone this old?

    How do I back up Contacts on my  iPhone 3 I got back in 2008? With MobileMe closing down, is there a way Ican  export my Contacts info to my laptop. Alternately can I use iCloud with an iPhone this old?

    Outlook 2003, 2007, or 2010 along with syncing calendar events and notes, or with the address book app used by Windows Mail called Windows Contacts for syncing contacts only.
    Before syncing contacts with an empty Windows Contacts address book, enter one contact in Windows Contacts. This will provide a merge prompt with the first sync for this data which you want to select. Syncing direct with Windows Contacts via the iTunes sync process is selected under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes.

  • HT204380 help. tried for first time to use FaceTime with another iPhone user & it would not work. "FaceTime failed". we are both on wi-fi networks & iTunes accounts are set up correctly.

    help. tried for first time to use FaceTime with another iPhone user & call refused to connect. Call would dial, allow us to accept call, then error message "FaceTime failed" would appear & call disconnect. we are both on wi-fi networks, both phones have updated software & both enabled FaceTime with iTunes logged in. don't know what else to do to get FaceTime to connect. Someone please help.

    Thanks Helen for the response. At least you can get some of the contacts to work. Absolutely none of mine will. Feel like my phone is cheating me out something it should do. Think I'm going to just have to dump all the Apple products in general because this phone hasn't worked right since I got it.

  • Can I use rhapsody with my iPhone?

    Can I use rhapsody with my iPhone, and if so, how? If not, are there any services other than itunes that I can use?

    As Allen said, no, you can't, not unless Rhapsody allows you to burn tracks to an audio CD which could then be imported into iTunes. Rhapsody, like most other download music stores, uses Microsoft's Windows Media format and copy-protection which can only be played in Windows Media Player on a WM-compatible device (which does not, BTW, included Microsoft's own Zune).
