Starting with iOS 13 and macOS Catalina, the new Reminders app no longer supports CalDAV.
NEW: Direct syncing with Reminders [Beta]
BusyCal: Calendar & Reminders PC 용. 카테고리: Productivity 최근 업데이트: 2019-08-09 현재 버전: 3.6.9 파일 크기: 21.94 MB 개발자: Busy Apps FZE 호환성: 필요 Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 8.1 and Windows 10. There has been debate in previous versions of iOS as to how Calendar is used alongside Reminders. With the changes that have been made to Reminders in iOS 13, I'm curious if the primary uses for either of these stock apps have changed for any of you since updating. I deleted my Reminders app a while ago because I can add to-do items in Calendar. The app also has solid task and event management, which syncs easily with the built in iOS calendar app, Reminders, and Google Calendar for easy event importing. BusyCal (iOS: $4.99/£4.99. Jan 14, 2020 BusyCal 3 is the most powerful, flexible, reliable calendar app for macOS. It's packed with innovative, time-saving features including customizable views, integrated to dos, travel time, maps, natural language input, weather, moons, graphics, tags and more. For those of you that plan your day/week/month, do you use iOS Reminders, or do you place items in your Calendar, with a notification set, too? I mainly use the Calendar. But, started trying Reminders earlier this week (never used it). A shame that via iCloud, you can't set a reminder date/time.
You can now sync BusyCal directly with Reminders.app by upgrading to v3.8 (currently in beta). If you're interested in trying it out, please join beta by following these instructions.
The iOS app has also been updated to supported Reminders (currently in Beta). If you're interested in testing it, please join our TestFlight beta group on iOS by clicking on this link: https://testflight.apple.com/join/1vf2RDcr

Upgrading Reminders
When you launch Reminders on iOS 13 or macOS 10.15 for the first time, you will be presented with an option to upgrade Reminders so that it may offer you newer and better functionality.
If you don't wish to use Reminders as your primary to-do app, and instead rely on BusyCal or a host of other 3rd party CalDAV task management apps, choosing Yes will migrate all your to-do-only calendars off of CalDAV and into a private silo run and managed solely by the new Reminders app.
Your to-do-only calendars, along with their contents, will in effect be deleted from BusyCal, as well as a host of other 3rd party CalDAV clients on all other platforms. If this has given you unwarranted confusion, stress and anxiety, or it wasn't immediately clear that upgrading Reminders would result in loss of data in every other CalDAV client, please leave them feedback. They listen.
After Reminders deletes your calendars and to-dos from CalDAV, it replaces these with a calendar named Reminders ⚠️ along with the following two entries inside, reminding you who to blame:
- Where are my reminders?
- The creator of this list has upgraded these reminders.
Choosing No on the other hand, will keep your calendars and to-dos intact, and these will continue to sync with all other CalDAV apps, including BusyCal. The only downside of this would be the inability to use newer features offered by the new Reminders app.
Restoring from Backups
The only way to restore data would be to restore these from automatic backups BusyCal creates for you, on a timely basis. There is more on this here.
During migration, Reminders will also remove Calendar sharing from any calendars you were previously sharing with others. You will need to set these up again as explained here.
BusyCal automatically backs up your BusyCal database every day and saves your last 10 backups. If you wish to restore your calendar from one of these backups, select File > Restore BusyCal, select a backup file and then click Open. You'll be presented with a list of your calendars, check the calendars you want to restore, click Restore and they will be restored from the backup, overwriting their current contents.
Note: That any events that have been created or edited since the backup will be lost when you restore from the backup. If you don't want to restore an entire calendar and lose any recent changes that were made since the last backup, you can restore specific events from the backup as follows:
Create a new backup in BusyCal by selecting File > Create Backup.
Quit BusyCal.
Launch BusyCal while holding down the option key to display the Startup Options dialog, then select Start in Offline Mode and click Continue. When in offline mode BusyCal will not sync with iCloud, Google, Exchange or any other services.
Select File > Restore From Backup. Choose one of the recent backup files and click Open, then select the calendar that contains the events you wish to recover and and click Restore.
Find the missing events and drag them to your Desktop to create ics files of each.
Select File > Restore From Backup. Choose the most recent backup you created in step 1 and click Open, then check the same calendar you selected in step 4 and click Restore.
Double-click on the ics files you exported in step 5, or drag them into BusyCal, to import the events and place them on the appropriate calendar.
Quit/relaunch BusyCal to go back Online.
After importing your to-dos, if these got imported under 'On My Mac' - that would be a local calendar on your machine, which won't sync to iCloud. You need to right-click on this calendar and choose the 'Move to iCloud' option or manually select all to-dos in List view and drag them to the appropriate calendar under your iCloud account.
The Future
Once you restore your backup and BusyCal is able to push everything back the iCloud CalDAV server, your to-do only calendars will continue to sync without issues. Apple has only dropped support for CalDAV within the new Reminders app, their iCloud servers will continue to sync your calendars and to-dos between other CalDAV clients. 2Do app, for instance, has issued a similar explanation.
CalDAV is an open protocol used for managing all your calendaring events and to-dos, giving 1st party built-in apps no particular advantage over 3rd party apps. Apple has been a driving force behind this for decades, and so we don't see this going away. The rest of your calendars and events will be fine as they are.
However, it does look like they wanted to add a lot more functionality and features to the Reminders app, and given CalDAV as a protocol is limited in what it offers, they decided to drop support for CalDAV altogether. This isn't a bad thing, but this does mean you lose the capability of syncing your to-dos seamlessly between apps and platforms.
If you feel Apple should provide users with an option to sync this back to CalDAV, please leave them feedback.

This tutorial provides instructions for getting started with BusyCal and an overview of its features.
Introduction
BusyCal is a calendar and to do list manager for OS X El Capitan that can be used as an alternative to the built-in Calendar and Reminders apps on OS X.
BusyCal's unique and powerful features include customizable calendar views, integrated to dos that display in the calendar and carry forward until completed (can be disabled), an embedded Info Panel for quickly viewing and editing events, support for graphics, weather and moon phases, a menu bar app for quick access to your day's events, and more.
Setup Assistant
After installing the BusyCal 30-day trial, or purchasing it, open BusyCal and you're presented with the Setup Assistant.
The assistant walks you through a number of steps, including requests for permission to perform the following functions:
- Access to Contacts — BusyCal requires access to Contacts for displaying birthdays, meeting invitations, and email alarms, and for auto-completing addresses.
- Access to Location Services — BusyCal requires access to Location Services for displaying the weather at your current location.
Syncing with iCloud, Exchange, and Google Calendar
After completing the setup assistant, if you were previously syncing Calendar with a cloud-based calendar service, such as iCloud, Exchange, Google, or a CalDAV Server, BusyCal prompts you to enter your account password. After you enter the password and click OK, BusyCal begins syncing with the server.
BusyCal can sync with many calendar servers, including iCloud, Exchange, Google, Yahoo, OS X Server, Fruux, Kerio, Zimbra, and others. You can add or remove calendar servers by choosing BusyCal > Preferences > Accounts. For more information, see the help pages on syncing BusyCal with iCloud, Exchange, Google Calendar, and CalDAV.
Syncing with OS X Calendar and Reminders
BusyCal can sync with the built-in Calendar and Reminders apps on OS X through a cloud-based service (iCloud, Exchange, Google, or a CalDAV server). If OS X Calendar is already syncing with a cloud-based service, it should automatically sync with BusyCal once BusyCal has been configured to sync with the same account.
BusyCal does not sync local 'On My Mac' calendars with OS X Calendar.
Syncing with an iOS Device
BusyCal can sync with the built-in Calendar and Reminders apps on iOS, as well as with the iOS version of BusyCal, through a cloud-based service (iCloud, Exchange, Google, or a CalDAV server). If you were previously syncing Calendars between your Mac and an iOS device through a cloud-based service, your iOS device should automatically sync with BusyCal once BusyCal has been configured to sync with the same account.
BusyCal syncs calendars with an iOS device only through cloud-based services. BusyCal does not sync local 'On My Mac' calendars with an iOS device, nor does it sync with an iOS device via iTunes.
For more information, see Syncing BusyCal with an iOS Device.
Calendars
The Calendar List in the left sidebar displays a list of your calendars.
Busycal 3 Calendar Reminders Calendar
If the sidebar is not visible, you can display it by choosing View > Show Calendar List, pressing ⌘-Option-C, or clicking the Hide/Show Calendar List button on the left side of the toolbar, next to the Close/Minimize/Zoom buttons.
Calendars are grouped by source:
- On My Mac — Calendars stored locally on your Mac.
- iCloud, Google, Exchange, etc. — Calendars hosted on a server such as iCloud, Google, Exchange, Fruux, or other CalDAV Server.
- Other — Displays birthdays and anniversaries from OS X Contacts or BusyContacts, plus read-only calendar subscriptions from a WebDAV server, like a holiday calendar.
You can change the color of a calendar (and all of its events), by Control-clicking the calendar and choosing a color from the Color submenu of the contextual menu.
Views
BusyCal provides several views for displaying your calendar: Day view, Week view, Month view, Year view, and List view. Click on the toolbar buttons to change the view.
Scrolling Views
You can scroll the view in BusyCal a full page at a time, or incrementally. Regardless of where you scroll, you can instantly return the view to the current day, week, or month (or, if already in the current time period, highlight today's date) by clicking the Today button or choosing View > Go To Today (⌘-T).
Click the navigation arrows to scroll forward/backward by one page (such as a month in Month view or a week in Week view), or scroll by smaller units by Option-clicking the navigation arrows. You can also scroll using your trackpad, Magic Mouse, or a mouse scroll wheel.
Customizing the Number of Weeks per Month and Days per Week
You can choose the number of weeks to show in the Month View (from 1–12 weeks) by choosing View > Weeks in Month and choosing from the available options. This is particularly useful when you're nearing the end of the month and want to see what's ahead without having to scroll to the next month.
Likewise, you can choose the number of days to show in Week View (from 2–14 days) by choosing View > Days in Week and choosing from the available options.
Customizing the Calendar Appearance
You can customize the appearance of your calendar by choosing a font face and size, time format, and more by choosing BusyCal > Preferences > Appearance and experimenting with the available options.
For more information, see Appearance Preferences.
Weather
While we're on the subject of customizing the appearance of your calendar, you may have noticed the 8-day weather forecast and moon phases that appear in the calendar. You can customize these settings by choosing BusyCal > Preferences > Weather.
Weather Graphics
You can choose one of three different formats for the weather graphics: Small, Large, or Background:
Moon Graphics
And you can display moon phases in three different formats: Realistic, Symbols, or Astrological:
For more information, see Weather.
Events
BusyCal supports the following event types:
- Banner — An all-day event that can span multiple days.
- Event — An event with a start and end time.
- Dated To Do — A task with a due date that appears in the calendar and/or To Do List. See To Dos for more information.
- Timed To Do — A task with a due date and time that appears in the calendar and/or To Do List. See To Dos for more information
- Undated To Do — A task with no due date that appears only in the To Do List. See To Dos for more information.
- Sticky — A floating yellow sticky note attached to a date.
- Journal — A Journal event is similar to an all-day event. It occurs on a date, but has no start or end time, and does not occupy any time in your calendar. Journal events can be useful for recording information that occurred on a specific date, such as the details of a discussion, a list of accomplishments, or a diary entry.
- Graphic — A floating graphic attached to a date. Graphics may also be attached to events. See Graphics for more information.
To create a new event, double-click on a date in the calendar, choose File > New Event, Control-click on a day and choose New Event, or press ⌘-N. (You can create other event types using the File menu, by Control-clicking, or using keyboard shortcuts.) You can edit event details in the Info Panel (described just ahead).
For more information, see Event Types.
Info Panel
BusyCal includes an Info Panel for viewing and editing event details, which may appear in any of three locations: in the righthand sidebar, as a floating window, or as a popover in the main calendar view. You can move between fields on the Info Panel with the Tab key.
Info Panel in Sidebar
The Info Panel can appear in the righthand sidebar, where it's always available when an event or to do is selected. To display the Info Panel in the sidebar if it's not currently visible, click the Hide/Show To Do List button, choose View > Show/Hide To Do List, or press ⌘-Option-T. (The pop-up menu on the right side of the Hide/Show To Do List button lets you select whether the right sidebar shows the To Do List, the Info Panel, or both.)
Info Panel as Popover
Alternatively, the Info Panel can appear as a popover, which disappears as soon as you click outside it. To display the Info Panel as a popover, first go to BusyCal > Preferences > Info Panel and make sure the 'Display Info Panel in floating window' checkbox is deselected. Then:
- If the Info Panel in the righthand sidebar is hidden (see above), the popover appears when you select an event in the calendar or a to do in the To Do List and press ⌘-Return, or double-click an event in the calendar or a to do in the To Do List. If 'Open Info Panel for new events' is selected in BusyCal > Preferences > Info Panel, the popover also appears when you create a new event or to do.
- If the Info Panel in the righthand sidebar is visible (see above), the popover never appears.
Info Panel as Floating Window
The Info Panel can also appear as a movable, resizable, floating window. To display the Info Panel as a floating window, first go to BusyCal > Preferences > Info Panel and select the 'Display Info Panel in floating window' checkbox. Then:
- If the Info Panel in the righthand sidebar is hidden (see above), the floating window appears when you select an event in the calendar or a to do in the To Do List and press ⌘-Return, or double-click an event in the calendar or a to do in the To Do List. If 'Open Info Panel for new events' is selected in BusyCal > Preferences > Info Panel, the floating window also appears when you create a new event or to do.
- If the Info Panel in the righthand sidebar is visible (see above), the floating window appears only when you double-click an event in the calendar or a to do in the To Do List.
Customizing the Info Panel
The Info Panel is customizable. You can choose to show just the basics, or add additional fields like tags, graphics, or attachments.
Tip: Choose BusyCal > Preferences > Info Panel and check 'Open Info Panel for new events' to automatically open an Info Panel popover (or selecting the title in the embedded Info Panel, if visible) when creating a new event.
For more information, see Info Panel.
To Dos
In BusyCal, to dos are integrated into your calendar. To dos can be displayed in the calendar on the date they are due or displayed in the To Do List in the right sidebar.
To dos come in two flavors—dated and undated. Dated to dos have a due date and can be displayed in the calendar. Undated to dos do not have a due date and can be displayed only in the To Do List.
Show To Dos in the Calendar
You can show dated to dos and completed to dos in the calendar on the date they are due or completed. If a to do is not completed on its due date, it carries forward each day until completed (can be disabled from Preferences). In order to differentiate between normal To Dos, carried forward To Dos appear with a small > arrow displayed in the center of the checkbox in Month / Week / Day view. Once completed, to dos are displayed with a checkmark on the date they were completed.
To Do List
To show the To Do List, choose View > Show To Do List, press ⌘-Option-T, or click the Hide/Show To Do List button on the right side of the toolbar and choose either Show To Do List or Show Both from the pop-up menu. The To Do List appears in the right sidebar.
The To Do List can be sorted by Due Date, Priority, Title, Calendar, Tag, or manually. To change the sort order and other preferences, choose BusyCal > Preferences > To Dos.
Repeating To Dos
You can create repeating to dos, like a status report that recurs each week. Photoshop lightroom classic cc 2019 v8 3 1.
To Do Calendars
Celeste 1 2 6 1 download free. BusyCal calendars are type-specific. A calendar can contain either events or to dos, but not both. BusyCal indicates a to do calendar by displaying a checkmark next to its name in the left sidebar.
Creating To Dos
With all that background information behind us, it's time to create a to do.
- Click on today's date in your calendar, then choose File > New To Do (or press ⌘-K), to create a new dated to do with a due date of today. The to do appears in your calendar with a checkbox in front of it.
You can drag the to do to a different date, and its due date changes in the Info Panel.
Note: If you drag the to do to a past date it continues to be displayed on today, because past due to dos automatically carry forward to the current date (you can disable that option in BusyCal > Preferences > To Dos).
If you mark the to do as completed by checking the 'done' checkbox in the calendar or Info Panel (or pressing ⌘-/), the completed to do appears with a checkmark in front of it on the date that it was completed.
To create an undated to do, choose File > New Undated To Do (or press ⌘-U), and the new undated to do appears in the To Do List.
For more information, see To Dos.
BusyCal Menu
BusyCal includes a menu bar app that provides one-click access to your calendar and enables you to add events, even when BusyCal isn't running. The BusyCal menu displays a navigable mini month view, a scrolling list of upcoming events and to dos, the weather forecast for today and upcoming days with events or to dos, and a Quick Entry field for creating new events with natural language.
To display the menu, click its icon in the menu bar or press Control-⌘-B.
Enabling the BusyCal Menu
Markdown 1 2 – advanced markdown editor download. To display the BusyCal Menu in your menu bar, go to BusyCal > Preferences > General and select the 'Show BusyCal Menu in menu bar' checkbox. This opens a background application that loads at login and continues running even when BusyCal has quit.
Using the BusyCal Menu
To display the BusyCal Menu, click the menu bar icon or press the BusyCal Menu keyboard shortcut, Control-⌘-B.
With the BusyCal menu open, you can do the following:
- Click the left or right arrow button to move to the previous or next month.
- Scroll the list of daily events and to dos forward or backward using your trackpad, Magic Mouse, or scroll wheel.
- Click or use the arrow keys to select an item. A popover appears with the details of the event or to do. Click the Show button in that popover to open the event or to do in BusyCal.
- If the item is a to do, you can mark it as complete by clicking the done checkbox.
- Double-click an event, or press Return with an event selected, to open the event in BusyCal.
- Create new events using natural language by typing in the Quick Entry field at the top of the menu.
For more information, see BusyCal Menu.
Alarms
BusyCal can display alarms for events and to dos in the BusyCal Alarm window, or in the OS X Notification Center.
The BusyCal Alarm Window offers several advantages over Notification Center, including the ability to snooze an alarm for any number of minutes, hours, or days; mark to dos as completed; see the name and color of the calendar that the event is stored on; and more.
Enable BusyCal Alarm Window
To enable the BusyCal Alarm window, go to BusyCal > Preferences > Alarms and make sure 'Show alarms' is checked.
Creating an Alarm
To demonstrate the Alarm function, let's create a new event and attach an alarm to it.
Click on today's date, choose File > New Event. Then, in the Info Panel, set the event start time for approximately two minutes from now, and set the alarm to 'At start'.
Then wait a minute or two for the alarm to appear. When it does, you can snooze or dismiss the alarm, or double-click the event to select it in your calendar.
For more information, see Alarms.
Graphics
BusyCal enables you to add graphics to your calendar to highlight certain dates, such as holidays and special events.
Graphics Panel
In BusyCal, choose Window > Graphics Panel to display a floating window that displays images you can drag and drop onto your calendar. You can browse through the hundreds of Emoji images built-in to OS X, or type a keyword to search for images on IconFinder.com. You can even drag images into BusyCal from your desktop or from the web.
For more information, see Graphics.
Birthdays and Anniversaries
BusyCal can display the birthdays and anniversaries from OS X Contacts (or BusyContacts) in your calendar. Choose BusyCal > Preferences > General, and select the 'Show Birthdays calendar' and/or 'Show Anniversaries calendar' checkboxes.
With these calendars enabled, a Birthdays calendar and an Anniversaries calendar appear under the Other heading in the Calendar List, and any contacts with birthdays or anniversaries in their Contacts records are displayed with special icons in the calendar.
For more information, see Birthdays and Anniversaries.
Holidays
There are many Holiday and Sports calendar feeds available on the internet from Apple, iCalShare, Yahoo Sports, and others that you can subscribe to in BusyCal or OS X Calendar. We provide a list of links to the most common US holiday and sports calendars here.
When you subscribe to a Holiday calendar, BusyCal displays all-day events on Holiday calendars in a unique style—either as a banner or as gray italicized text at the bottom of the day cell. (Double-click a calendar to open the Calendar info dialog, and check the 'Holiday calendar' checkbox to use the gray italicized text rather than banners for that calendar.) Since BusyCal has the ability to display graphics, we created some variations of the US Holidays calendar that include graphics for major holidays. You can subscribe these US Holidays calendars by clicking one of the links below.
