Synchronizing Calendars

A common occurence, a Mac at home, an XP PC at work and a Palm or Treo for travelling with, many people have other portable devices including Razr’s, Blackberry’s, Windows Mobile devices and iPhones. (Psst, this site uses iwPhone theme so looks awesome on an iPhone, if you’re using Wordpress, look up iwPhone and plug it in)

To keep your calendars in sync across these devices, the first thing to do is decide which computer will be your primary (or master) computer.

Second, you’ll only sync your device with this master computer.

Thirdly to do some transparent synching between Google Calendar and iCal or iCal compatible calendars, you’ll need either Spanning Sync or an open source alternative that’s also free called GCAL daemon.
