I just got an iPhone and I'm trying to sync it with my iMac. I was able to load my outlook calendar onto the iPhone, but now I can't figure out how to sync the iPhone with iCal in my new iMac. Everything where I look it tells me to use iTunes, but all that does is sync my contact list.
What version of itunes are you using?
You should see this in the info tab:

Whatever the newest version is. I just got it.
Another piece of additional info. I managed to get it to sync, but I can't figure out how to set which way it syncs. So, it took my blank calendar from the iMac and wiped out everything I had on my iPhone. How do I adjust the sync settings?
not necessarily. The first time you sync your iphone to your computer, iTunes should ask if you want to Merge the data from both devices, of just use the info from one (or the other) on both devices.
also, just because you got your imac doesn't mean you have the latest iTunes. Since apple assembled your computer, there have probably been many software updates that should be installed. That being said, the iTunes you do have should be recent enough to sync iCal properly.
Go ahead, quote me. I dare you.
well, the original calendar on your iphone is gone. You;ll have to re-sync with your previous computer to get it back. After that, when you then sync with your iMac, iTunes should ask you if you want to "merge" the information on both devices, which is what you want to do. I believe this is the only way to accomplish what you're looking to do.
Go ahead, quote me. I dare you.
Dude, use iSync to sync calenders and contacts.

A dirty joke is a sort of mental rebellion.
