iCal Sync : Support CalDAV Calendars [See "Replacing Calendar Sync" thread.] Thread Tools Search this Thread Display Modes
I've just started using OmniFocus, and so far I have found it to be absolutely wonderful!

One thing that would be really helpful would be the ability to sync to any read/write calendar in iCal instead of only the local ones.

I realize that this is complicated by the fact that only the local calendars likely have sync interfaces. Luckily, CalDAV is (relatively) straightforward to implement... The basic ability to associate a context with a specific CalDAV calendar would be extraordinarily helpful, because then I could easily set up a shared context with my fiancee.

T'would be great if the whole omnifocus database could be stored via CalDAV, but something in my gut tells me that even if that were possible that iCal would likely butcher it.
 
I strongly second this notion. I should have made sure before purchase but not being a techie, calDAV issues didn't even cross my mind. I use iCal with google calendar calDAV intergration and those calendars don't show up as sync options within OmniFocus. I rely on google calendar for calendaring needs, and iCal without it just isn't useful.

Is sync support for calDAV calendars on iCal in the development horizon?
 
CalDAV calendars aren't supported on 10.4 - since OmniFocus 1 needs to maintain compatibility with that version of the OS, they aren't supported in current versions.

This is one of the things on our to-do list, but I can't quote you a specific timeframe when they might be supported.

If this means that OmniFocus doesn't work for your purposes, you should contact our sales folks: we have a 30-day no-questions-asked refund policy. Sorry!
 
Hi,

one more vote for caldav syncing. I have more than one product (e.g. Officetime) which are able to sync locally or to a iCAL CALDAV sync'ed calendar.

Couldn't you use the same technique?

Thanks a lot in advance

This would be a great feature, with gmail's CalDAV now enabled nicely for iCal.
 
I also second this. CalDAV sync from desktop and iphone apps would make OF perfect!
If CalDAV is only supported in 10.5, then can we not just have the codepath that deals with it enabled when running under 10.5? Folks with 10.4 would still sync to local iCals and everyone would be happy :)
 
So far my project manager and task was Contactizer Pro.

Now that Apple has the switch to MobileMe Calendar CalDAV protocol, not borne by Contactizer, calendars related to my tasks and my projects are no longer synchronized with my iPhone from MobileMe.

Since yesterday I test Omnifocus as task manager and projects to effectively replace Contactizer.
Unfortunately, Omnifocus seem to work with CalDAV and so with the new MobileMe calendar.

Does the iPhone version of OmniFocus and iPad could effectively solve this problem by synchronizing with OmniFocus for Mac?
 
Omnifocus does not support CalDAV on any platforms. You can only sync to local calendars.
 
Yes, please! Please support CalDAV, because of the new MobileMe CalDAV calendars! We can't sync OmniFocus to our calendars anymore, because we've switched completely over to CalDAV!

Forget about 10.4 compatibility with OmniFocus -- nobody uses 10.4 anymore.
 
I second this request, please.
Thanks,
drking
