Finally two way syncing between Google Calendar and Apple iCal

Thanks to Google you don’t need complicated tools to set up two way syncing between iCal and Google Calendar anymore. In a few steps you can set up your online and offline calendars to display the same information.

Here are the 3 steps to take:

  1. Open the OS X Address book, find your own name and select the menu Card / Make This My Card. This is needed for the meeting invites.
  2. Download the setup tool Calaboration provided by Google and run it.
  3. Provide your Gmail username/password and select the calendars you with to sync and done.

It works smooth. I only hope for these features to appear soon:

  1. Being able to add an entry to a Synced Google Calendar on an iPhone. Currently you can’t do that, you can only add an entry to the default calendar, which doesn’t sync up to Google as far as I can tell. Hope you can prove me wrong.
  2. Being able to sync iCal to-do-list to Google Calendar. For this of course Google first has to release a to-do-list application. Until than we have the Gmail integrated RTM.
  3. Calendar entry with time zone conversion support.
