Hi Folks,

Does this error mean anything to you?

5/25/09 5:33:57 PM iCalExternalSync[7455] [ICalExternalSync ]Encountered CoreData could not fulfill a fault for '0x1d388a0 <x-coredata://AA52D040-1CB4-4FBD-94AC-0ED16A2064A0/Event/p1272>' with userInfo {
NSAffectedObjectsErrorKey = (
<CalManagedEvent: 0x1d77d80> (entity: Event; id: 0x1d388a0 <x-coredata://AA52D040-1CB4-4FBD-94AC-0ED16A2064A0/Event/p1272> ; data: <fault>)
);
}

I get a number of these when syncing - I reset my Sync history via iSync.app, but to no avail. Not sure what more I can do. Is there a DB corrupted somewhere? In iCal, maybe?

Thanks for any help you can provide.

iCal is talking to part of Mac OS X called CoreData - CoreData has hit a problem, has not handled it, and is passing the error message back to iCal.

If the problem is causing you to be unable to sync, you may want to try the steps in the "completely reset iCal sync" thread. If you're just seeing the messages go by in the console, it's less clear whether that needs to happen. If it were my personal machine, I probably wouldn't worry about it, but YMMV. :-)

Should have mentioned that this is preventing me from syncing the OF data to iCal.

Okay, since this is blocking iCal syncing, you'll want to carry out the steps in this post.

I did some forum reorganization recently, and just realized that moving a thread un-stickies it; I've re-stickied the thread that post was in. Sorry it was so hard to find!

If the steps in that post don't resolve the issue, you'll want to email our support ninjas so they can help.

Ok, thanks for the additional link. Before you posted it, I went to the original thread you sent and ran the Perl script 'resetsync.pl' located here:

/System/Library/Frameworks/SyncServices.framework/Versions/A/Resources/

(I didn't trace through the perl module used in this script to see what it does, it may do what you suggest.)

It did do something - now when I open the OF Prefs, there are no calendars listed to which contexts can be dragged.

So I plugged in the iPhone which started up the syncing engine, and when I launched OF afterwards, I get 'some' calendars in the list, but not all. But the contexts are still not being synced over to iCal to the calendar I used to test. Do all Contexts need to be assigned, or just some?

I'm going to try the proceedure again...

Couple of possibilities: OmniFocus 1 still supports Mac OS 10.4, which means we only use local calendars for syncing: if you have any CalDAV calendars set up in iCal, they won't show up in OmniFocus.

If that's not what's causing this, it sounds like Sync Services may not be sending information about all of your calendars along to us.

Second - is the to-do list open in iCal? iCal still associates your to-dos with your calendars, but they are displayed in a separate pane of the view. That sometimes confuses folks.
