Oct 27, 2011 1:56 PM in response to DanKby AppleMan1958,★HelpfulI would select the "on your Mac" calendar (do this one calendar at a time), and FILE/Export.../Export.
Then select your iCloud Calendar and FILE/IMPORT and select your file that you just exported.

Oct 27, 2011 2:09 PM in response to Csound1by DanK,Is there a way to do this all at once? or do i need to do one appointment at a time? (referring to Csound's answer)

Oct 27, 2011 2:09 PM in response to DanKby alexbird,You need to export each calendar individually and save it on your desktop. Then when you import it again to iCal create the new calendar as an iCloud calendar. It should transfer all of the events in that one calendar. You will probably have to do that a couple times since you most likely have multiple calendars.

Oct 27, 2011 3:46 PM in response to DanKby Mateomasfeo,I gave up on iCloud. It is a big Cluster****. Don't do it! I lost all my calendars. No biggie! Great instructions and a seamless update Apple!

Nov 5, 2011 3:01 AM in response to DanKby Daniel Ebeck,It wasn't working for me, but is now.
Open iCal.
Go to Sys Prefs >> iCloud.
Turn off Calendars.
Go to iCloud.com and sign in with your Apple ID.
Check that the calendars are not present.
Go back to Sys Prefs and turn Calendars back on.
Choose Merge.
Wait whilst it "Upgrades" your calendars.
Once it has fininshed, check that they appear on the iCloud.com calendars.
Go back to iCal and click the Calendars button to see them all listed under iCloud.
I had a problem previously where it either hung whilst upgrading or the process finished without moving the calendars. I just tried it again and it worked.

Mar 18, 2012 7:38 PM in response to Daniel Ebeckby MoMo4489,This sounds great, but is there a way where I can do something similar on the iOS devices themselves? The situation I have is that my new iPad has the calendars from my Mac on it (plus the iCloud ones but I'd like to merge them) while my iPhone's calendars got erased and just have iCloud on them. I don't have iCloud on my Mac because it's too old to support Lion.

May 2, 2012 9:22 AM in response to DanKby Gon Paran,I have the exact oposite problem. I don't have a mobile device just my mac, I thought it could be nice to access my calendars via anywehre so I let icloud do it's thing... then I had to turn it off so it deleted all my "on my mac" calendars, after turning it on again I get all the calendars but "iCloud" not "On my mac"
Any Ideas on how to get them back to my mac?

May 8, 2012 7:45 PM in response to Daniel Ebeckby tdubya76,This worked like a charm for me. Just a hint: the first few times that I tried it I was going to ical and clicking Preferences under the iCal menu. You want to go to SYSTEM PREFERENCES under the apple.
best!

Jun 12, 2012 9:32 AM in response to Daniel Ebeckby Deuce man,Here's a heads up: Turning Calnedars off and on in System Prefs worked but I had a scary moment. When turning it off, you get a warning that turning it off would DELETE the calendars on your Mac. Yes, I backed up my data but still, that word "delete" gives me the collywobbles.

Jul 10, 2012 10:12 AM in response to DanKby Cbenton1,Hi Guys,
I had this same problem, and this fixed it, so thanks! But my bigger question is that since this calendar was basically just copy and pasted to icloud, won't that mean that updates to the subscription won't sync?
My calendar is for my school, and they update it almost daily/weekly with changes. Will this no longer happen?
