MacOS – Setting iCal Calendar defaults

icalmacos

I have a calendar with birthdays in them and I'd like to set the repeat to "Every year" — unfortunately setting each manually seems quite painful. Would there be an easier way to accomplish this?

Im on an OSX 10.8.

You could add the birthdays to your Contacts, then you'll see each birthday every year automatically.

ICal with Google CalDAV issues

iCal doesn't send invitations - Google Calendar do.

You need to set up Notifications for each Google Calendar - main and sub-calendars.

"Google Cal->Calendar settings->Calendars->[select calendar]->Notifications->[set check mark at Email and/or SMS for each type of invitations]"

Lion Server iCal Location/Resource Calendar

In iCal create a calendar entry with your resource or location in the invitation. Select the resource and click on the disclosure (the downward pointing triangle). Choose "Copy Invitee Address", your clipboard will have the uuid (unique id) of the resource, something like:

urn:uuid:0d426b70-8294-41a7-8b34-c2ee24cde743

Now remove the urn prefix ('urn:uuid:') and plug this into your browser for more details like so:

https://server/principals/__uids__/0d426b70-8294-41a7-8b34-c2ee24cde743/

Or for a caldav url use:

http://server:8008/calendars/__uids__/0d426b70-8294-41a7-8b34-c2ee24cde743/calendar

Unfortunately, on Lion Server I wasn't able to have users subscribe to this url due to permissions. Hopefully you will have better luck than I on that part.
