How to sync the ical (Mac calendar) to the android phone calendar?

Q. I just bought a Macbook Pro and I have no idea how to sync my calendar on my phone (G2X) android to my calendar on my computer. I am having so much trouble keeping track of all the appointments/events and I do not want to carry my laptop everywhere with me. Any help is appreciated. I am sure as you can tell I am a bit technology impaired. I really do appreciate the help. Thank you very much.

A. Hi there are actually many ways but i will suggest the ones that work the best


1.) i hope you have a gmail account , ( if not create for free (www.gmail.com))
now open ical
go to preferences in menu
click on accounts
click on the + sign at the bottom
click select the account type to Google
enter your username and password
you are done with mac !!
now go to m.google.com/sync

in your android native browser
download the app !
and now enter the username and password

now, you are done !!!!

this app has preferences by which you can set the syncing schedule !! not once you add any event it will automatically be synced with mac once you turn on ical over mac
also there are many advantages of this method as your events are also synced with your gmail account hence y=if in case any thing happens to your pc or android u do not have any data losss this app will also keep your contacts backup and with sync if you set up the same way in address book in mac !!

plz note this is GOOGLE OFFICIAL WAY TO SYNC !!
also this method is wireless !!! hence you do not habe to sync between multiple devices !! with wires !!!
also if you want to save money on data you can set the sync to manual or as you want in schedule !!
plz note calendar will be automatically be synced with ical once you open the app!!!!

it is just awesome if you think that this info is not enough for you plz go to www.google.com/sync
for more info !!
also if this is not good for you you can have some more identical services that support phones other than smart ones !! but since you need for android and ma this is the best and for free method only your data charges may apply ( can be reduced by changing sync schedule!!)
now


2.)
if you love wires !!!( i do not think any body on this world loves them !!!)
if you do not want to use google products,
if you do not like wasting data
then go for missing sync http://www.markspace.com/products/missing-sync-family.html
this will cost you but not much !!
hence according to me google sync is better
,
but still u want to keep your photos and videos in sync according with calendar,


3.) try funambol free for certain limit on storage in videos and photos!!!!!

What is the best android calendar for multiple phones?

Q. My wife and I both have the htc incredible and would like to figure out the best way to have synchronized calenders. The android marketplace is infested with calendars and I have no clue what my best option is. Basically I just want each of us to be able to add a calendar event and have it show up on both phones.

A. I rather like Android Agenda

Just config it so you show the SAME Google Calendar on both phones. You may have to "share" the calendar with the other Google account on the computer first. The calendar are specific to the account, but can be shared with other accounts.

How do I put contacts from my computer onto my android phone?

Q. I lost all my contacts on my android phone and I want to put them in a program on my computer and then sync them to my HTC phone? Can anyone help?

A. Android is tied directly to Google applications. When you logged on to the phone the first time to set it up, you had to use a Google account, remember?

Go to your Google mail account on line, import or update all your contacts, and that's it. They will automatically be synced over the data connection to the phone. Any changes you make on the phone or the online account will sync with the other automatically.

This also occurs with Google mail and calendars.

How do you add an Android tablet as a device to your Google account?

Q. So I got an Android MID table for Christmas and I need help adding it to my google account as an device, so that I can install apps from Market Apps. When I tried to add it as a device I had to put a phone number and my tablet doesn't have a phone number. My question is how do I add it as an device to my google account?

A. I unexpectedly managed to add the device, by using the "Calendar" application and selecting the "Google" option, which required me to sign in and after that it automatically linked the device to the account.

However, this is not enough, since when trying to use the Android market i get the same "no phones are linked to this account" message. :-|

Is there an app for android phones to keep your schedule?

Q. And not just like a little calendar app, I need something that will send me some kind of notification that in like 15 minutes or a half hour I need to do this, or that. And hopefully make a little bing noise of some sort in case my phones in my pocket. I know that's being pretty specific, but I'd really like something like this.

A. Mate, the calendar app can do that. You just set an event up in one of the date and time and it will create some notification to remind you it like 15 mins or 30 mins before you you have to do it (comes up in the notification bar and uses your notification ringtone.
