Sharing Calendars

[jbischke]

I'm looking to figure out a shared calendar solution for our business. Here's the background:

I'm running Outlook and pretty tied to it (for a number of reasons ). My business partner uses a Mac and is running iCal and synching with Google Calendar. I have two things I'd like to do:

#1 - Synch Outlook and Google Calendar. I tried three programs (GSyncIt, Calgoo, SyncMyCal) and couldn't get any of them to work. Any suggestions for other things that might work?

#2 - Merge my calendar with my biz partner's to produce a joint public calendar. I love that Google allows you to publish your calendar. If possible I'd like to take this a step further and merge our calendars so we have a single URL we can send someone and say "Here's our schedule, pick a time when we're open for the call/meeting." The busy times on the calendar would be times when either of us are busy.

I'm not sure if #2 is possible yet but would be a huge help.

Any help here would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

This worked for me LINK


Since I wanted to sync my work Lotus Notes and my home Exchange, it took a lot of trouble for me, but I wanted a portable calendar that I can share so everyone knows my schedule 🙂

Works like a champ, but sorry I cant help you with the shared calendar part. I set one up, but it was via my Exchange server and sharepoint and to be honest, I would have no idea how to put that into 2 different google calendars.

what did you end up doing?

I'm dealing with Mac / PC issues too.

I think sharepoint with office 2008 on the mac might be the answer but dont know yet.
