I added the field birthdayfield in Contacts on my Macbook OS X 10.7.4. But it doesnot showup in my iCal agenda date of the birthday.On my iPad it does, but the birthdays in the agenda of the iPad do not sync with the agenda of my Macbook.

With iCloud, there are double entries when looking at All Contacts, and so things Contact details like event have double entries on iCal too. Since all Contacts are made on iCloud now, Should all Contacts be deleted from My Mac?

My AdressBook contacts don´t appear in iCal (Window>contacts). The appearing window in iCal is empty, no contacts are shown.
In AdressBook all contacts are available. I use an iMac with OSX 10.7.3.

I am considering whether to switch to iCloud when I upgrade my iPhone 3G (I also have an iMac running Lion and an iPad). However I am concerned about the security of my data, particularly iCal and Contacts. Am I right in thinking that in iCloud the only copy of these is stored on Apple's servers? Call me paranoid but I would not be happy with the only copy of important files existing on a third party's servers, even if that third party is Apple. After all, not having multiple backups flies in the face of good backup practice. Is it possible to have a local copy/backup of iCal and Contacts when using iCloud?

I've only just noticed, but my iCal isn't displaying birthdays, even with the "Birthdays" calendar box checked. I think this started some time ago, but only just noticed it [brothers b-day isn't showing up this month]Â
I've tried removing it and restarting the application, and signing in and out of iCloud, but no change. I thought about deleting the .plist for the iCal, but I can't actually find it in the library/preferences folder.Â

Everytime I upload that ical backup file... nothing happens in google calendar. It does nothing in Firefox... and safari I just get 0 was transferred. I just want to bring over my calendar to google. Does anyone know what is going on? Anything I am missing?
I just used the ical calibration tool to sync ical up with my google calendar and it works like a charm. I love how i can just click on dates in Mail and add them to my iCal which then pushes i to google calendar for my wife to see...that way i can sneak tennis or a round of golf in and she can't say she didn't know
At any rate-i would like to know if there's a way to pull her cal stuff to my ical. I can see all of her stuff on my google calendar, but i dont have the "right" to add her account to ical. I assume i could just have her enter in her login info - but i would like to know if that's the best way.
Trying to get them to talk to each other - I've input the Google account into iCal preferences, and it shows up fine. But I seem only able to sync one way - if I add an appointment in Google Calendar - then sync - it shows up fine in iCal. But if I add an event in iCal and then sync - it doesn't show up on the Google Calandar.
It seems that the contacts app has suddenly become incapable of accessing my contacts in the cloud. Its fine on icloud.com, its fine on my phone, and its fine on my ipads. However, I'm getting an error message right now which I think must be to do with an update to Little Snitch which I did almost immediately before, and which necessitated a reboot. Since the reboot, I am seeing the following
Of course, this also means Messages doesnt work. LS is not blocking any icloud things, and calendars and mail are still working with no issues.Â

Loaded 10.6 last night and everything appeared to go well. However, when I opened iCal, ALL of my appointments, birthdays, events, etc. had disappeared. Unfortunately I had not backed up iCal before loading SL.
I have good SuperDuper backups of the system and I have Time Machine backups of everything, but I don't see a way to extract the appointment data from those.
I'm not exactly sure of where to post this... I'm having a problem with my computer (Address Book, I believe) syncing w/ Google contacts. I'm getting the following error messages:
The first image is the original error that comes up. If I click More Info, it brings me to a list of contacts. The "Before" info contains the correct fields for their email addresses (e.g., school, work, etc). However, Google wants to get rid of these fields.
Is there any way I can get Google to accept this fields? Also, can I have Google revert to my Mac's info instead of the other way around (my mac using Google's changes)
After upgrade software on iPhone (with iCloud) contacts on MAC (Snow Leopard) are no mre sync with iPhone....

My contacts book is in need of a good cleanup. I would like to archive the current content and then delete the old records in a renamed or duplicate Contacts list. How can I do this?Â
Several questions I guess:
1) How do I archive (if this is possible)?
2) How do I copy the Contacts book and give a new name?
3) How do I select several records and delete in one go (avoiding individual deletions one at a time)Â
4) Is there a built in feature hidden away somewhere to help with this or an app?Â

I have an issue with contacts on my devices. My iPhone 4s, and my MacBook Pro. I am running Lion and the latest version of everything and yadayadayada. But I want the Address Book on my Mac to be identical to the one on my iPhone so I have numbers and emails all stored of my friends and family on my Mac as well as iPhone. However, when I go to iTunes and click sync contacts and all that, it does something with Google and crap to match them and it's just a total mess. On my iPhone I have groups of contacts that are "From My Mac" which contains about 2/3 of all my contacts. Like some synced and others didn't. Then there is an "iCloud" group. Which contains very very few contacts and doesn't do crap for me. Then there is an "All Contacts" group that actually has everything. I thought iCloud was going to sync ALL my contacts to ALL my devices? I don't know what to do right now at all. I think my Mac is syncing with Google and not my iPhone because the only contacts it's syncing are the ones from my old droid on that email, which is also my Apple ID. So should I take my Mac off syncing with gmail contacts and then I can remove all the gmail contacts off of gmail for good or whatever and then I can get my iPhone contacts on?

I waited to upgrade to Lion until Apple released a revision to correct all the inevitable bugs. I'm now having the same problem that many of the first users of Lion experienced: my iCal sync is not working between devices. I've gone through all the previous threads but haven't found a common answer. How to get all my calendars talking again? Â

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am running Lion OSX 10.7.3, and iCal version 5.0.2. When I try to create a new event in any day of the calendar, I get the message: You can't add or change events in the Birthdays calendar.
Events in the Birthdays calendar come from your contacts in Address Book. To change them or add birthdays, use Address Book. I do have birthday events in the calendar. They were created in the Address Book. But I can not add any new events.

I have downloaded the new Lion version and it comes with this really ugly ical leather theme...I want to change it back or just change it to something else....I have 6 different calendars since I am operating a salon and the new colours aren't as bright and nice and the font is all ugly...

After discussing the migration to iCloud with Apple Support I bought Lion today. Only later did I learn it won't run on my MacBook (Core Duo, not Core 2). Any fixes, workarounds' for syncing that calendar. My desktop, iphone, ipad and ipod touch will all work fine, of course, but my notebook appears left in the cold. Guess this means Mail is out of luck, too!

My contacts are appearing only in my Contacts on my iphone. How do I get them listed in my Contacts on my ipad and Mac computer?

I try not to have iCal running because I've got the Dateline app that stays on my desktop. Mousing over that will give me appts and such as I need to have them.
I've found, that opening iCal and messing with the input screen for a new event is kind of cumbersome, and I'm wondering if folks have found a good way to create new iCal events w minimal interaction with iCal itself.
Today 2.5 offers this as a feature, but it's $25. Macworld also had a tip, but running that Automator action opens up iCal in the background.
Are there any other solutions out there?
I cant get my mobile me ical to update ical on my MBP. It says in the ical settings that its connected to the mobile me account. What can I do to fix this?
