This worked great... thanks! I shared my calendar with my friend. Will she be able to make changes to the calendar? I would like her to be able to have full access just like me. Any information would be soooo helpful! Thanks again! Hi! This worked great… thanks! I shared my calendar with my friend. Will she be able to make changes to the calendar?

Your home computer — the one you're publishing from — is the only computer that can make changes to the calendar. All the other computers are just subscribers and can only read the calendar. If you want true two-way sync I highly recommend Google calendar sharing: http://systemsboy.com/2008/08/google-calendar-sharing.html -systemsboy Jason,

I have also managed to subscribe my work computer to these calendars. The problem I am facing is apparently not being able to make changes to the calendars I set up on my home computer from another computer and have the updates show up on my home iCal. Does this make sense? I would like to be able to add appointments from work and have them sync to home (I have already set my known work appointments on my home desktop...)

Since you do not like to pay, when it is possible for free, I am with you and hoping you know a way to continue this Publish and Subscribe on a free basis.

We're actually in the process of switching to Exchange next month, so I guess I'll be without shared calendars until then. Thanks again! Hi SB,

That's too bad! Unfortunately, I can't really troubleshoot this, since I don't use this method anymore since Google started supporting CalDAV: http://systemsboy.com/2008/08/google-calendar-sharing.html It's way better. That said, I haven't heard of any problems, and WebDAV is the same protocol used for Apple's own calendar servers, so in theory it would break those as well, which it certainly shouldn't. If you haven't already, it might be worth a shot to re-enter your passwords, or perhaps even re-set up your calendars and see if that helps. Try with one first and when you find a fix propagate it to the other calendars. Please let me know if you find a solution, in case others have a similar problem. Thanks! -systemsboy Hm.

However, I recently updated to OS 10.6.3 and iCal 4.0.1 and now I can't publish or subscribe to our .ics files on box.net. Has anyone else reported this problem? It says "Calendar couldn't be published. Check username and password." None of the information has changed and it just doesn't seem to allow it to connect anymore. Any ideas? Hi SB,
