Address & Calendar No Longer Sync & iTunes Won't Enable It

Problem appeared on 1st Gen iPod and iPod Photo recently, might have occured with update to iTunes 6.0.1 (now using 6.0.2 with no improvement).
I have done a full iPod Restore with no improvement.
iPod sync of addresses and calendars used to work perfectly. For years.
iPod will sync my music and the iPod will work fine if I add calendar and address information manually to their respective folders.
But, when I attempt to turn on Address or Calendar syncing in iTunes (with or without having just done a Restore) I get the warning: "No Contacts Available" or "No Calendars Available". This isn't so. This is a new problem that never occured before.
I have done a Restore with no improvement. I am not doing another.
Any suggestions?
It happened before updating to OS 10.4.4 (no problems with update).
PowerMac G5 1.6GHz   Mac OS X (10.4.4)  

I would also appreciate the answer to this.
I have never had a problem getting iTunes to sync address book and calendar onto my iPod Photo until after this update... Mac OS X 10.4.4 / iTunes 6.0.2
The only difference is that the new iTunes stated that my music library was damaged after update so created a new one and had to download new library to my iPod Photo. Now I am just left with the problem stated by Steven above... My address book is there (and has contacts) and my iCal is there/has entries. In iTunes, on selecting Address book or Calendar via iTunes Pref (for iPod), I get the same warning... "No Contacts Available" or "No Calendars Available". I am kind of glad I am not the only one but am keen to get it resolved. Thanx.
Anthony.

  • ICal and Address Book no longer syncing with iPhone - HELP!

    HELP!
    I am a long time Apple user and rely heavily on my iPhone to keep me where I need to be, when I need to be there. I have an iPhone 4 and it is running OS 6.0.1. Everything was working fabulously until recently. Sadly I don't know when the problems started--when I updated to OS 6 OR when I updated iTunes to version 11. Either way, my iCal and Address Book no longer sync with my iPhone. And to add insult to injury, my phone is no longer automatically detecting the AT&T microcell I have in my house. I have to reboot my phone every time I come back in the house--talk about annoying.
    I am not super techy, so I am hoping someone can help me with this. I LIVE by my iPhone and as a self-employed person, I can't afford for this device to stop giving me information. I also don't want to do entries on my phone AND computer everytime something changes. I do not want to go back to the more reliable paper calendar and address book.
    I have iCloud turned on, and it appears to sync my address book with my iPhone. But I seem to be a mess with iCal and my desktop. And between iCal/Adress Book on my computer and iPhone, nothing is talking.
    HELP!!!!

    I think my company updated Exchange on Friday and since then I cannot sync with Mac Mail, Entourage does not seem to be working either?

  • Calendars no longer sync across devices after iOS/Mac OS X updates

    Ever since updating my MacBook Air to Yosemite and my iPhone 6 to iOS 8.0.2 (or maybe 8.1.1), my calendars no longer sync correctly across devices. Prior to the updates, any addition or change I made to the calendar on my iPhone would be added to the calendar on my Mac the next time I synced my phone. Now I have duplicate events on my phone, the calendar on my Mac no longer incorporates changes from the phone and I get a dialog box on the Mac 2-3 times an hour about calendar conflicts. No matter how many times I review the conflicts and choose which events/updates to save, the box keeps coming back. I've never had a persistent issue like this with any previous iOS or Mac OS updates and I can't figure out why it won't stop. Help, please!

    OK, that was easy enough. Here's what I took from the log when I synced a few minutes ago. I kept the log entry for one of the multiple calendar sync conflicts.

  • I updated my iphone to iOS 6.1.2 and now my iphone calander and macbook calendar no longer sync (they used to). How do I get them to sync again?

    I updated my iphone to iOS 6.1.2 and now my iphone calander and macbook calendar no longer sync (they used to). How do I get them to sync again?

    Why can't you update?
    There should be nothing preventing the update from 6.1.3 or 6.1.2 or even from 5 directly to 7.
    What happens when you try to update?
    Have you tried to Update through a computer running the most up top date version of iTunes?
    Tell us a little more about what is happening and we may be able to provide more specific answers.

  • After upgrading to Yosemite, my Exchange calendar no longer syncs to iCal (the Apple calendar). Help?

    After upgrading to Yosemite, my Exchange calendar no longer syncs to iCal (the Apple calendar). Help?

    That's not the point.    Before iCloud, Outlook synched with Apple Calendar and/or iCal.    With iCloud, Cal syncs with iPhone and other devices.     Outlook doesn't have to sync with iCloud (although that would certainly be nice).   It just has to continue to sync with Cal, which in turn syncs with devices via iCloud.
    But for some inane reason, it doesn't.    If this is Apple's way of forcing people to not use Office and only use Calendar and Apple Mail, they are going to stop the gains they've made in business environments.   Businesses, especially large businesses, use Outlook.   End of story.
    Furthermore, Apple's instructions for setting up or deleting iCal and iCloud accounts is complete gibberish.  And I'm a tech who has been working with computers for 32 years.   Apple used to be great at making things easy.  They now suck at it and are just as bad as Microsoft.

  • After my software update, my calendar no longer syncs w my PC

    After my recent update to IOS6, my calendar no longer syncs with my PC, yet my iPod touch is fine.

    Make sure you are running the latest version of iCloud control panel for Windows (ver. 4) by running Apple Software Update and installing any available updates.  If you install an update, restart your PC, then try calendar syncing again.
    If that wasn't the issue, try force-closing the calendar app on your iPad (double-tap the home button, swipe up on the calendar app, tap the home button again), then reset your iPad (hold the power and home buttons at the same time until you see the Apple logo, then release).  After it restarts, try adding a new calendar event and see if it appears on your PC now.
    If not, try going to Settings>iCloud on your iPad, tap Sign Out, choose Delete from My iPad and provide your password when prompted (your data will still be in iCloud).  Then reset your iPad again and test calendar syncing.

  • Address Book no longer syncs with google contacts

    After my switch to Lion, I'm noticing that my address book no longer syncs with my google contacts??
    After I update my contacts in address book, it doesn't show up on google contacts and vice versa.
    Is anyone else exprienceing this?

    ¡¡¡Ok, Something worked for me!!!
    I have my address book empty, and then this is what I did:
    1- Copy Address book app to downloads (or other folder) just to back it up
    2- Install AppCleaner
    3- Drag and Drop address book ap into app cleaner, make sure that it references to several files (all .plist files etc.) If there are no external references then try to drag and drop your backup, do it until you see the rest of references (uncheck address book widget)
    4- After press clean in AppCleaner, it will delete everything.
    5- Put back your address book app backup into your applications folder
    6- Open it and if your are lucky you will see all the contacts again, they were like hidden....
    Then I deleted all the contacts again and set up google account in preferences again, after that it syncs fine!!!
    Good Luck!

  • ICal calendars no longer syncing to ipod using itunes after Snow Leopard

    Help! I upgraded yesterday to the new Snow Leopard and I can no longer sync my calendars to my ipod 5G. I do not have an iphone and this is the only way I can see my calendars. Did Snow Leopard "update" the calendars so that iTunes can no longer see them? I get the error message that there is no calendars available to sync, when indeed, I have 10. Please help!

    Hi, some more information...
    I worked with Apple on the phone for three hours, to no avail.
    the troubleshooting steps are as follows:
    1. deleted from HD/username/Library/Caches the "com.apple.ical folder"
    2. deleted from HD/username/Library/Preferences the file "com.apple.iCal.plist"
    3. deleted from HD/username/Library/Calendars the "Calendar Cache" file
    4. removed and reinstalled itunes
    5. "restored" ipod to factory default settings
    6. exported, deleted, and re-imported all calendars (individually)
    7. plugged in ipod and tried to sync calendars - still not working...
    This issue has been escalated up...
    After seeing many posts with ical issues with Snow Leopard, I think I am not alone...
    None of this has helped

  • Outlook calendar no longer syncs after IOS 7 / iTunes update

    Running Outlook 2003 on Win XP.  Yes that's what IT allows....
    Updated IOS7 (now at 7.0.3), tried to sync on the next day at work.  Itunes forced me to update (11.1.2.31).
    Updated iTunes.
    Notes sync.
    Calendar does not.
    iTunes says:
    Sync Calendars
    Your calendars are being synced with your iPhone over the air
    Over-the-air sync settings cane be changed on your iPhone
    I've disabled OTA calendar sync I know of (Google, iCloud) with no effect.  There are still some iCal feeds that I left on.
    Suggestions appreciated, but I'm stuck with my work environment for now.  Really would like to get back where I was before "updating". :-)

    Still struggling with this.  I did discover a diagnostic in iTunes, but it says all is well.  I suspect that is because it thinks the iPhone is syncing the Outlook calendar over the air:

  • Calendar no longer syncing with iphone after IOS5.

    The appointments in Outlook are no longer syncing with my phone after installing IOS5.  I've uninstalled/reinstalled iTunes.  The itunes add-in in Outlook is disabled and no matter how many times I enable it, it disables.  I've reset my phone.  I've replaced items on this phone with calendar and nothing seems to work.  How do I get my appointments on my phone to be able to sync with iCloud?

    I'm on a 4S  IOS 7.1 won't show my Google Calendar I have about 8 that should be showing. FIXED!!
    I'm posting this here because your answers didn't help with my particular problem but aimed me in the right direction. so maybe this will help someone else.
    ------------------------------ This is what I tried ------------------------------
    At the bottom of the calendar app click Calendars there should be a check to the left of your calendar. (my calendars weren't even listed here)
    The google.com/calendar/iphoneselect solution. (mine was checked correctly)
    Google 2-step verification (I even turned this on to see if it would help)
    Deleting all accounts “Settings – Mail,Contacts,Calendars – Accounts” and starting over
    ------------------------------ My Solution ------------------------------
    Since I deleted all my accounts already this is what worked I don't know why.
    Under “Settings – Mail,Contacts,Calendars – Accounts”
    I added my google account “add account” “Google”... so on. Calendar was selected.
    I added a second account “add account” “other” (at bottom) scroll down to “add CalDav Account” under calendars.
    Server= www.google.com
    user name = your email
    password = your password
    description = whatever
    Calendar was selected.
    Then I went to “Settings – Mail,Contacts,Calendars – Accounts” and down towards the bottom I clicked “default calendar” and set it.
    I hope this helps

  • Address Book no longer syncs to iPod nano

    I don't know whether this is an iTunes 10.5.2 problem or a Lion problem, but I recently found that iTunes is no longer syncing my address book to my 5G iPod nano. All I get is a zero-byte file with the current file creation time in the nano's Contacts folder. (I AM able to manually export a vcard file from my Address Book.app to the nano, and that is my current workaround.)

  • My iCal calendar no longer syncs with my iPhone

    I bought an iPhone and an iMac just recently.  For the last two weeks they have been syncing whenever they ar both in the same WiFi network.  But latrely, they no longer sync when I change something in either calendar.  Any idea why?  They are both still connecting to my home WiFi network.

    OK.  Problem seems to have gone away when I started iTunes on the iMac.  I'm real new to the iPhone and to Imac (a couple weeks).  Does iTunes have to be running on the iMac in order for sync to take place?

  • Since i updated to snow leopard, address book no longer syncs to office 2011

    I use Office 2011's email program. With 10.5.8, when I entered a new contact into Apple Address Book, it synced with the address book in Office pretty immediately.
    Then I upgraded to Snow Leopard a few weeks ago. But I just noticed that when I add an address to Apple Address Book that it no longer syncs and loads into the Office contacts.
    (When I started using the new iCal, it was recommended that I uncheck the sync to Mobile Me. It's checked now, just not for Calendar.)
    Has anyone experienced this? If so, what did you do to solve?
    Thanks for your help.

    This is all a bit confusing.  Your signature says you have 10.4.7 installed.  You have indicated that you have upgraded to 10.6 (Snow Leopard).  Office 2004 is not compatible with Apple's latest OS (10.7 Lion).  If you have 10.6 installed, as you have indicated, it should work.
    What is the exact message you are getting? 

Maybe you are looking for
