Hello All
I am currently running OS 10.6.8 Snow Leopard on my iMac, which is incapable of running Lion. (Even though it's core2duo, Lion will run too slowly to be of any use.) I want to sync just calendars between my Mac and iPhone without having to plug it in all the time and do a full sync (which takes AGES). Is this possible? My iPhone 4 is running the latest iOS 5
Thanks in advance,

You may be able to sync your calendars to iCloud by means of this unsupported hack
Also this program may be of interest:
•BusyCal is an iCal-like calendar application with extra facilities: it can sync with the iCloud Calendar while running on Leopard, Snow Leopard or Lion. A single user licence (two machines allowed) is $49.99.
This page lists in detail the situation with Snow Leopard and iCloud:

Thanks but I'm not looking to spend any money on this. I might just upload my iCal calendars to Google because I can edit it on my iPhone and see the changes on my mac and Google.
Thanks anyway 🙂
Lion runs very well on the Core2Duo Macs I've tried it on. What speed is the CPU in your iMac?
Hey Julian
I have a white 2006 iMac Core2Duo with iSight. 3gb RAM, 2.16GHz processor. What's yours? I was told that Lion would run slow on my iMac, and so there wasn't much point in updating.

Lion runs fine on my macbook 2GHz core2 duo with 2 gb ram and Liont runs fine. When I went to lion last fall, I felt it actually ran faster than snow leopard. So perhaps it's a case of it not rrunning lion at a speed it's capable of, but it is still worthwhile. And it has myriad other handy features that at first are a little disconcerting and then you wonder why we had to wait so long to get them.
Mines only slighty faster at 2.4Ghz and Lion runs very well on it with 4GB of RAM.
