All entries duplicated after update to new MobileMe Calendar

Since updating to the new MobileMe Calendar, all entries in my local calendars (those that appear on both my desktop and my laptop) have every entry duplicated. Each entry that was there before the upgrade is still there and it is overlaid by an identical entry at the exact same times and with the exact same text. The calendar that appears in MobileMe does not have these duplicates. Has anyone else experienced this and does anyone have a solution to remove all the duplicates?

John,
I think I'm in over my head.  Yesterday I was prompted to download and install the newest software for my iPhone 4.  During the course of the install, I was asked if I wanted to use iCloud as my backup destination, and I answered "yes".  Later I was also asked if I wanted to set up a MobileMe account, to facilitate being able to use "Find My Phone".  I answered "yes" to that also. (I'm so easy!)
I finished the install and then last night I plugged my phone into the computer to sync and charge, as I always do.  It was this morning that I noticed that all the entried in my Calendar (on the phone) were duplicated.  I didn't have time to deal with it right away, and while I was at work, I entered a few appointments into my phone.  After work, I noticed that not only were the entries on my phone duplicated, but the appointments entered on to my phone this morning, weren't appearing on iCal (on my computer).
My Calendar appointments are crucial to my business, and I need to be able to trust that what I enter on my phone will also show up on my computer, and vice versa.  That's where I'm trying to go, and frankly, I don't really understand iCloud or MobileMe, and probably shouldn't have tried to upgrade without more knowledge. 
I certainly appreciate the time and patience you've offered me, but I don't want to use your whole day.  Worse comes to worst, I can always make an appointment at my local Apple Store. You've been very generous, and I appreciate it.
Thanks again,
Nela

  • Mac OS X 10.6.5 fixes sync issue after upgrading to new MobileMe calendar

    The issue that prevented iSync from 'seeing' calendars after upgrading to the new MobileMe Calendar has been fixed in iSync 3.1.2, part of the Mac OS X 10.6.5 update.

    Appointments made on my phone are now synced to the local calendar. How do I get these in the cloud and synced with my other devices (macbook and ipod touch)?
    Unfortunately, this is the way it works now. I asked Apple about this and got the following response:
    +"Events from CalDAV calendars can be synced via iSync to a phone, but events can only be created on local calendars. This is as designed."+
    I haven't tried it yet, but I presume you drag events from the local calendar to the MobileMe calendar, but I don't know how this would handle duplicates.

  • ICal crashes whenever opened after upgrade to new MobileMe calendar

    I upgraded to the MobileMe calendar beta, and have no problem using it on my iPhone, MacPro or the web. But iCal on my MacBook Pro now crashes every time it is opened. I can see it start up OK, then as soon as it starts showing the indeterminate spinner next to my MobileMe calendars (presumably showing it's doing a sync) it crashes. I've tried deleting all my calendar data from my Library folder but that hasn't helped.
    Has anyone else seen this? Or could anyone offer any suggestion as to how I can remove the MobileMe calendars from iCal to at least get it running again? The error it crashes with (it's the same every time):

    Welcome to Apple Discussions,
    Remove the following to the trash and restart your computer:
    Home > Library > Caches
    Home > Library > Calendars > Calendar Cache, Cache, Cache 1, 2, 3, etc. (Do not remove Sync Cache or Theme Cache)
    Home > Library > Preferences > com.apple.ical (There may be more than one of these. Remove them all.)
    __NOTE: Removing these files will remove any shared (CalDAV) calendars you may have access to. You will have to re-add those calendars to iCal > Preferences > Accounts.
    Once the computer is back up and running open iCal and test.
    Hope that helps.

  • Why did I lose all my Verizon ring tones after updating to new software?

    Why did. I lose all my Verizon ring tones after updating to new software?  Always worked before, now they are gone!  Contacted Verizon, who could not explain. 

    I was having a similar problem and here's what solved it for me: Under Settings>Notes the default account was changed from iCloud to another account for no apparent reason when I upgraded to iOS 7.  When I changed it back to iCloud, my notes started appearing on all devices again.  You might also want to check the Accounts setting under the Notes app to make sure All Notes is checked to retreive notes from all accounts.  Similarly, Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars has a default account that should match as well.  Good luck.

  • ICal lost events after upgrading to the New Mobileme Calendar

    After updating to the New MobileMe Calendar on my home computer, the iCal at work stopped syncing, i.e. none of the events show up.
    I tried quitting iCal, stopped syncing, and synced again to replace data on work computer, but didn't work.
    MobileMe calendar has all the data intact. iCal at home seems to load all the events fine. (10.6.6 on iMac, both at home and work.)
    Please provide advice. Thanks!

  • Error messages after new MobileMe Calendar upgrade. Solved?

    Quick rundown of what I've been through and how I have solved my problem.
    I have a MacBook running 10.5.6 and I also have Bento 3. Recently Bento (Filemaker) told me that I would have to complete a few steps before upgrading to the new MobileMe calendar. So I followed the steps exactly. (URL: http://help.filemaker.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/7846/~/setting-up-bento-for-th e-new-mobileme-calendar)
    After completing the steps. I proceeded to upgrade to the new calendar. Upgraded in less than a minute and then after opening up iCal on my mac & importing my calendars, thats when things started to go wrong. I kept getting error messages on almost every even I have ever created. I could barely even quit iCal due to all the error messages. Also, many of my events werent there after importing and the progress wheel kept spinning. Complete DISASTER! (*Luckily, I made plenty of backups before doing any of this so I was safe*) But Still I had NO iCal!
    I searched and searched and could not find a complete solution. So what I did was the following and so far I believe it could be the solution to all of you guys's problems.
    I followed these instructions on this website (URL: http://answers.makeitwork.com/how-to-reset-ical-on-your-mac-or-how-to-clean-up-y our-ical/) **I followed these exactly**
    They are below:
    +Export any Calendars you wish to retain after you reset by clicking on the Calendar you wish to retain and go to File > Export… > Export…+
    +Repeat the above process for every Calendar you wish to keep. (Make sure you remember where you saved them)+
    +Quit out of iCal+
    +Go to Finder and click on your Home icon to display the Library folder.+
    +Open that folder+
    +Open the Calendars folder in the subsequent window+
    +Delete all the contents within that folder+
    +NOTE: If you open iCal at this point, it will initially appear that you cleared everything. Within minutes, however, everything will come back.+
    +Go to your Utilities folder and open the Terminal application+
    +Enter the following command: rm -rf ~/Library/{Caches,Caches/Metadata,Preferences,Application\ Support}/iCal+
    +Exit out of Terminal+
    +Open iCal and…Voila! Brand new iCal!+
    But that did not completely work. So before doing this again, I went to my iPhone and quit syncing calendars on my mobile me account. And chose to ERASE every calendar on my iPhone.
    After doing that and repeating the process above, I opened up iCal and boom, it worked. Then after I had the calendars setup the way I wanted on my MacBook, I proceeded to go to Preferences>MobileMe>Sync> and then chose to sync
    I then went to Me.com and checked to see if the calendar was operable and it was 100%. I could do everything like before. Then I went back to my iPhone and just turned Calendar syncing back on in my mobileme preferences.
    This has solved all my problems 100%. Hope this helps someone. Just remember that as long as you created a backup of your Calendar you should be safe.

    Well... seems I didn't have any answer on this. I fiddled a bit more but I have to say that I really came to wits' end at this stage. A couple of observations though:
    * I don't really understand this notion of a keyboard issue. My keyboard and its layout work properly but I will not be able to login regardless of login through GDM, KDM or Slim. Yet it's worth noting that in the case of GDM and SLIM the X server starts; I see the graphical interface, I click, etc. but when I type the trouble starts.
    * I tried to check my xsessions-errors file. The file is really big under a frame buffer, and it wasn't clear to me, but I found strange that the log was reporting all sorts of attempts to start KDE. I don't exactly know what's going on.
    If anybody has any clue, let me know... It's becoming very frustrating.
    Thanks!

  • Upgraded to new MobileMe Calendar and now very slow updates

    System:
    iPhone 3G, iOS 4.1
    Mac: 10.6.4
    "Upgraded" to the new MobileMe Calendar.
    Now BusyCal, iCal, MobileMe and iPhone do not sync quickly (sometimes takes 30 minutes for iPhone or more). Sometimes I need to launch iCal to get MobileMe to update. On the iPhone need to leave on for a long time or turn on and off.
    I think I've gone through all the conversion steps and FAQs: Apple's, MobileMe, Mac, iPhone and BusyCal.
    Maybe I was just spoiled with iPhone via Airport.
    Any comments/suggestions?
    Thank you.

    I'm seeing that problem as well and I can't figure out what why it's slower. I figured it's a bug so I reported the problem at Apple's iTunes Feedback page.
    On the other hand, iTunes 9 converts MP3s to AAC format at least twice as fast as iTunes 8 did, which is a very welcome improvement.

  • HT203216 iPhone will not update with new outlook calendar events after sync

    iPhone 4S will no longer update with new outlook calendar events after sync

    another user had the fix:
    FIXED IT! After a painful and time-consuming couple of months.
    I found the solution on another help forum, and in a nutshell it is this:
    I had set up some Outlook appointments with a reminder set at "0" minutes i.e. to remind me at the time of the event.
    On the iPhone there isn't an option for "0" minutes - instead it says 'at the time of the event' (or something similar)
    When the iphone tried to sync the Outlook items it didn't know what to do, and after several minutes of 'deliberating' (which looked like a very long calendar sync in iTunes) it then just aborted the process without syncing anything on Calendar.
    So I went into calendar list view, and changed any appointment with a reminder set to "0" minutes, and bingo, it all started working again.
    Try it! I hope it works for others too.. (repost of solution provided by Silvermum)

    Hi @zenesa! Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums!
    When did you perform the update?
    The phone needs a few days for the OS to settle and sync your data, It's normal for the first few days to shed battery life faster than normal.
    Don't forget to read this helpfu article about BlackBerry 10.3.1 Battery Tips (Battery Saving Mode is a great feature)

    After updates to newer vision iOS 7.0.4 my iPhone 4 is become slow, so please tell me what to do.

    There was something you could have done, bought extended warrenty, would have covered this. Apple is outside of it's one year warrenty policy, they had the agreement, and when you update you also sign an agreement that you would be responsiable for any problems that occur.
    The best thing you can do is the Out of warrenty for 199$; you didn't get additional coverage; something bad happen, be glad they offer the OOW.
