Calendar items won't synch...help!

An important person in our company has had to have a new PC installed. We are using Blackberry Internet Server. I installed Desktop Manager 4.7 on the new PC, and when I connected the device for the first time, it prompted to update the device software, which I did. However, when the synch takes place (Outlook 2003), certain Calendar items won't be added to Outlook from the device, and certain Calendar items won't be added to the device from Outlook.
The old PC was running an older version of both Outlook (2002) and Desktop Manager (not sure which version). I have gone through the settings but cannot figure out why this is happening. Everything else seems to be working fine. I don't want to have to attempt deleting CICALs etc unless I absolutely have to. The only thing I can think of at this point is to uninstall/reinstall Desktop Manager and hope that resolves the problem. Does anyone have any suggestions? Your help is much appreciated.

I don't believe that is true; that Vista won't run Outlook. Now, I'm saying that from having read through other threads, but I've also read that you do need to install and run the DM using full administrator rights. That may be your problem.
Let us know.

Outlook Calendar entries won't synch to z30

Why does my Z30 not get all of my Outlook events when I synch one way from computer to device?
Solved!

Found a tip in the Knowledge Base that worked for me.
"In some cases, deselecting Calendar and synchronizing Contacts only or deselecting Contacts and synchronizing Calendar, may result in a successful synchronization. "

My Outlook calendar items won't show on my iPad

I am not very tech savvy. I use Outlook 2010 on my PC for all my calendar appointments. In other words, I enter all of my calendar appointments via Outlook 2010 on my PC. I want them to show up on my iPad Air as well. My iPad Air says the only way to sync my calendar is via iCloud, I can't do it via USB cable and iTunes sync. It also says it will happen automatically. Except it's not. The calendar is not syncing. None of the current or past appointments that are on the Outlook calendar on my PC show up on my iPad. Why is this? How do I get it to sync? I have gone everywhere, in iCloud, iTunes, on the iPad and in Outlook on my PC and I can't see anything that will make a sync occur.
What specific settings do I need to check or enable on either the iPad, in iCloud or on my PC to make the appointments on my PC Outlook calendar show up on my iPad Air?

Thanks, Sooner Al, I had read those support instructions before posting here and did not understand them. What nothing in there says is that Outlook has two versions: an Outlook data file version (My Calendar) and an iCloud version.Or maybe the support instructions say this but in a techhie way that I could not understand. Anyway, iPad will only sync with the iCloud version. The Outlook data file version will not sync to iPad. So, any appointments you enter using the Outlook data file version (My Calendar) will not sync to iPad. Also, you cannot copy appointments from the Outlook data file version to the iCloud version, you have to manually re-enter everything into the iCloud version.
I cannot use the iCloud version because it will not communicate properly with my clients who use Outlook and who constantly send me appointments. It's important that I be able to accept or decline these appointments in Outlook and the only way I can do this is to use the Outlook data file version. The iCloud version will not communicate back to my clients properly.
I dont' know why you can't just connect the iPad to iTunes on the computer using a USB cable and manually sync with Outlook like I can with my iPhone 4s. This works perfectly for my phone. Stupid that you HAVE to use iCloud with the iPad.
For anyone else reading this, I have found third party software that will copy all appointments from the Outlook data file version (My Calendar) into the iCloud version and allow them to sync with iPad. It is called Code Two Sync for iCloud. You can Google it for reviews, the download link, etc. I downloaded this and installed this and it did exactly what it was supposed to, and all of my appointments showed up on my iPad. However, there were a bunch of duplicates. I'm sure there is some way to fix this.The bigger issue for me is that I have an older computer that is having hard drive issues and the Code Two software crashed Outlook, so I had to uninstall it. However, maybe it will work for other people.

Phone won't Synch contacts and calendar

HELP!! So, my phone recognizes my PC (and likewise), but won't transfer anything over (including my contacts and calendar) when synchronizing. It's giving all appearances of synching, but when finished, nothing is showing up on my phone. The phone is showing 14.83GB available space on the SD card, and I get a message on my PC (Vcast), "ERROR: VMMModeselection.exe - no disk - There is no disk in the drive. Please insert a disk into drive D:" Never had a disk, so I'm not sure what to do about that? Where do I go from here to insure things are transferring from my PC to my HTC Droid?

Dear Adam,
I am having a similar issue with my Incredible, however mine is with the exchange active sync. I sync my calendar and contacts only, no email. If I have a new calendar item it will sync with no issues. If someone sends an update to that item, that item is then duplicated on my phone's calendar. I checked my settings and for Resolve Conflict I have choosen Replace items on phone. I have been using this tpye of sync for the last 6+ months with no issues. This just started happening in the last month or so. I have deleted the account and added it again and the first sync is fine. In addition, when I have a calendar item in outlook canceled, it does not cancel the item on my phone calander. I believe sometime in late November or early December my phone prompted me to complete a software update. Since then, I have been noticing this issue and it is driving me CRAZY! Do you have any advice?
Thanks,
mccpsmith

Why won't calendar items that i add to my iphone synch to my ipad? And yet when I add items to my ipad, it will synch to my phone? I've done all of the updates, followed on-screen instructions, etc.

"gets stuck" - are there any error messages?
If you get the error "Backup not successful" and you've tried deleting the last backup and trying to back up manually without luck, try the following test: Go to...
Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup>manage Storage, tap your device name in the Backups section, then look under Backup options. Turn off all apps from backup and then do a manual backup. If that doesn't work, then this post will not help. If the backup works, then go back to the app list and turn some on and try another backup. If successful, keep repeating these steps. If it fails at some point, then try to zero in on the one app that seems to make the backup fail. (I had this problem and found one app failing, probably due to a corrupt data file.)
This process will take time, but if a backup works with no app data being used but clearly fails with the original settings, then somewhere in the mix of apps is a "bad" one.

HT1349 my IPOD touch won't be recognized by my DELL Latitude PC and it won't synch. I'm technologically handicapped but all I know is it used to synch whenever I would attach it to computer with USB. Aside from tossing my DELL can anyone help?

My IPOD Touch isn't being recognized by my PC(DELL LatitudeD630) and it won't synch. I'm "technologically handicapped" but all I know is it used to synch whenever I would attach it to PC with USB cable. Aside from tossing my DELL can anyone offer suggestions that might solve this problem ? Thanks

I had this issue, I fixed it by going to:
Start > Control Panel > Devices and Printers
Then find the iPod, and Right Click > Properties > Hardware > Properties > Driver > Update Driver > Update Automatically
The driver had not been automatically installed, and windows found and installed the driver files for me. Took ~90 seconds, and then the iPod began it's sync process almost immediately after. Hope this helps anyone with the same issue! I'd try this before re-installing iTunes.

HT4489 How do I reduce the number of calendar items on iCloud (having exceeded my 25000 entry limit and synch has now stopped), without loosing recurring items or future appointments. I.E. can I remove items by calendar year, say 2010 and 2011?

Since installing Mavericks, my HP Printer adds an extra page to every print job, and iCal won't synch via iTunes with the Calendar on my iPhone 4s. Can Mavericks be uninstalled?

Can Mavericks be uninstalled? Don't know if the discussion title pulled in all of my problem, so here it is again. Since installing Mavericks, my HP Printer adds an extra page to every print job, and iCal won't synch via iTunes with the Calendar on my iPhone 4s.
And no, I was a bad boy and had not been Time Machining. Guess I will now.
So, can Mavericks be uninstalled?

Calendar on Macbook Pro won't synch with iCloud

Calendar on my Macbook Pro won't synch with the Calendar on iCloud. I tried a number of times to delete Calendar from iCloud in System Preferences then restart the laptop. I also switched the 'enable' function on and off in Calendar Preferences. I restarted after every attempt and also refreshed. It looks as if it's updating but then nothing happens and the triangular, exclamation mark appears, grayed out, next to the iCloud icon in Calendar. I saw an answer in the Apple Support troubleshooting section regarding this about the server having to access port 80 or 443. Could this be the problem and if so then how would I make any port accessible to the relevant server? I'm not having this problem with my other devices or computer.

Hello Wateru,
Thank you for providing the details of the calendar issue you are experiencing with your MacBook Pro. You have taken some really good troubleshooting steps already. I recommend continuing with the steps in the sections titled "General troubleshooting" and "Troubleshooting on OS X" in the following article:

HELP! my work ipod touches won't synch with Exchange anymore after the 5.1.1 upgrade

HELP! my work ipod touches won't synch with Exchange anymore after the 5.1.1 upgrade

I may have solved it from another post....the "sync music" tab wasn't clicked under "Summary/Music". I had recently downloaded a more recent version of iTunes, and it may have defaulted to that....sigh.....

Whilst synching to my PC it said there was a software update for the iPhone. It is now stuck with a message saying connect to iTunes. I've tried resetting it in various ways but it still comes back to Connect to iTunes, but it won't. Help!

Outlook 2013 won't open calendar items created on Outlook 2007

I have a user that recently got office 2013 pro plus on his computer. We created a new profile and connected him to exchange 2010. Now when he tries to open up a calendar item that was created prior to the 2013 install it just spins and you have
to cancel outlook. He can create new calendar items and then open them up again but any item that was created with 2007 locks up.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Hi Jason,
I agreed with ED's point. If everything in your mailbox can work well in OWA and Outlook 2007, the mailbox in your server side should be healthy and configured properly.
Personal opinion, I suggest that we can try another computer with Outlook 2013 to check whether the issue persists. Also start Outlook by using Outlook /safe and Outlook /cleanprofile switches to have a try.
Thanks,
Winnie Liang
