I'm having trouble today with a customer and their iCal syncing. It keeps throwing up error messages on their computers.<br><br>They hate us too, you're not that special. <br><br>------>#1 - JD's Trivia game<br><br>------>#2 - MM-MCF Trivia game

Apple took your money and ran!<br><br>The worst thing is they keep luring me back and I go for it hook line and sinker every time ! <br><br> Apples Ultimate Amazing Crap !
I've tried every sized hammer I have, short of wiping iCal on the machines and letting it sync from the online iCal. They have appointments that have been made on all machines so we have to remember what appointments they've made for the last week on each machine. The whole point of using iCal is so one doesn't have to remember.<br><br>Sucks for them but it doesn't suck for me though as I'm getting paid to figure it out. <br><br>------>#1 - JD's Trivia game<br><br>------>#2 - MM-MCF Trivia game

I synced iCal with my iPhone what a mess some calenders I could read and some calenders were garbled to a point I could not read them and some would freeze the iPhone.<br>I removed all my calenders from iCal and my iPhone.<br>At the time I exported all my iCal calenders to ics files and will import them back to iCal when all the issues are cleared up.<br><br> Apples Ultimate Amazing Crap !
Pretty sucktastic.<br><br>I posted the following at Apple also in a post where someone was having the same problem.<br><br>Same here, it started when we changed passwords on Aug 18th. It's happening on both computers. One is on 10.5.4, the other is also, now as I ran the Combo updater on it to bring it up from 10.5.2 to try and fix the iCal problem.<br><br>I blew out everything in iCal on one computer and started over, moved the Calendar folder out of my Library folder, and the iSync and Sync services in my application Support folder out. I also moved out of the Preferences folder the 4 iCal plists and com.apple.syncserver.plist. I don't know if I missed anything.<br><br>I reset the password online.<br><br>I threw away the keychain entries, and repaired permissions, and of course restarted.<br><br>I still get the "data is inconsistent" error.<br><br>This account is one that cannot access Mail also.<br><br>I created a new trial account and it Syncs. How about that?<br><br>What is my next step I wonder? <br><br><br>------>#1 - JD's Trivia game<br><br>------>#2 - MM-MCF Trivia game

I had that data is inconsistent error message initially, but after making the cloud calendar the default (fortunately I'd synched the .Mac version just before the change over) and resynching some five or six times, it finally resolved itself. Don't know why . . . just magic.<br><br>[color:red]</font color=red> [color:orange]</font color=orange> [color:yellow]</font color=yellow> [color:green]</font color=green> [color:blue]</font color=blue> [color:purple]</font color=purple>
