Calendar syncs only one way

Just got into iCloud. Calendar from iMac went into the cloud calendar without problem. Adding new event from iMac or MBA goes t the cloud canendar without problem. However, the entry from MBA doesn't show in the iMac canedar nor does the iMac entry show in MBA calendar.
Uff Da!! While I was typing this both showed up. That's about 45 minutes after I entered them. Is that delay expected? The new events showed up almost immediately in the iCloud site calendar but it took the 45 minutes to get into other device calendars.

Fred and Radio, thanks.
My "refresh calendars" said "push." No idea what that means but I changed it to 5 minutes. Interestingly, shortly after sending that I tried again and the response was about 3 minutes. I live in the country, telephone and ISP service sometimes erratic. Perhaps the problem is between me and the main digital highway? Well, anyway that's an easy way to pass blame without much chance of being called on it.
Fred, the boat is on jackstands, covered in snow. Will be moving her to Bayfield (Apostle Islands) next spring. Hope for lots of mini cruisiing.

My iPhone calendar and iCloud sync only one way

My iPhone 4 (iOS 5) calendar and iCloud sync only one way -- from iCloud to the phone. Any ideas why I can't sync from my iPhone calendar to iCloud?

When you add an event on Iphone, 3rd fields down from bottom, select calender > iCloud. Voila!!
I am not sure everybody understand really the intention with iCloud. It is one single calender residing on a Apple server somewhere. Selecting iCloud from any device will show this calender. Then how to sync this with other calenders is to me a mystery, or not possible, especially on Lion iCal. Please anyone.

HT1386 How do you sync only one way?

I want to know how to sync only one way because there are some photos from our previous apple devices and I don't want those photos to appear onto my new one when I sync to put the photos or videos onto the computer. Does anyone know how to do it without messing up the system?

The photos are now on your computer and you don't want them on your new iPad?
Then move this photos on your computer to another location (folder) first and then sync.

Can I make OneDrive Pro sync only ONE-WAY?

Can I make OneDrive Pro sync only ONE-WAY?

That sucks. DropBox can.
We want to SYNC literature down to sales reps and not have the sales reps accidentally erase from the Cloud for all. Hence we want a one way SYNC to have them SYNC literature onto their computers for remote
access to the files.
Surely SharePoint cannot be that far behind DropBox.
Is there no way to achieve that?

Why is Mail rule syncing only one way?

Odd. I've got a Mac mini and an iMac, both running 10.8.2, both with iCloud syncing Documents & Data. Mail on the mini has rules -- created on that machine -- for SpamSieve that are not syncing to the iMac; in fact, both rules disappear every few days and I only notice because spam starts piling up.
On the other hand, changes to Mail rules on the iMac are synced to the mini. The mini has been running Mountain Lion for five months; the rules only started disappearing after I upgraded to ML on the iMac last month.
Any ideas on why the syncing is only one-way?

It appears that I can't edit my original question. So here is new information. It is syncing. However, the contacts are syncing with my personal folders. The calendar is syncing from Outlook to Ipad from my personal folders. However, the calendar is syncing to Outlook in a hotmail calendar in the profile that I didn't know existed. How do I get it set right.
I tried to select the calendar. However only one calendar is available in itunes. It must be the correct calendar as it is syncing fine. So how do I get ipad to sync back to the personal folders calendar instead of the hotmail calendar in my profile?

ICal sync only one-way

Lion OS on iMac. Syncing using iCloud. An iCal event entered on iPhone will show up on iMac iCal, however, an event entered on iMac iCal will not show up on iPhone. Events enetred on phone or iMac DO appear on web iCloud.
Address book contacts (also synced with iCloud) work both ways, it appears to be only iCal events eneterd on iMac that do not show up on iPhone.
I have checked to make sure all cals are visable, and all sync settings are on.
Ideas please.
Bill

First check that all your settings are correct, that calendar syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
Make sure the calendars you are using are in your 'iCloud' account and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud account (you can do this by clicking/tapping the calendar button in the top left corner of the application ), non iCloud calendars will not sync.
If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your calendars are in the iCloud account, you might try unchecking calendar syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling calendar syncing settings.

Ipad 3 is syncing only one way with outlook 2010

I am seeing calendar items that I add in Outlook 2010 added to the Ipad. However, appointments added in Ipad are not being added to Outlook.
I have not checked contacts (All were added to the Ipad).But I have not tried adding a new contact yet.
Is this normal behavior? If not, how do I get it to work properly?

Calendars on iCloud sync only one way?

I'm a new iPhone user, longtime Mac user. (iPh 5, iOS 6.1.4 iMac 10.8.5) Calendars are on iCloud. If I enter an event on my iMac calendar, it shows up on my iPhone rapidly. The reverse does not work - events entered on the phone do not show up on my iMac. No obvious setting difference - what am I missing? Thanks.

Ovi syncs only one way

I want use the online Ovi Calendar (calendar.ovi.com) which seems pretty nice.
BUT... it only syncs from my phone to the internet! If I add an appointment on my phone, it appears on calendar.ovi.com. but if I make an appointment on calendar.ovi.com, it doesn't appear on my phone!!
This is so annoying.. Nokia has a lot of these fails.. argh they NEED to FOCUS on this stuff!!

try to resend the synchronization settings to your phone and synchronize again
try to go under manage your device>remove your device>then add your device again>then sync again
try to go under Manage calendar and check on your settings

My calendar syncs only one direction (mac to iPhone) but not the other direction?

I used to run a sync of my iPhone and my newly entered appointments would sync both directions whether I had entered them on my iphone or on my mackbook PRO.
Now when I enter an entry on my phone it does not upload to my Mac Calendar. but if I entered the appointment on the MAC then it does sync to my iphone5.
Not sure if it changed after an ios upgrade or when. Tried it several times both wirelessly syncing as wel as with a USB cable.
Any ideas if this is a setting?

Greetings Mary,
If you are syncing using USB you can sync your iPhone to your computer which will update iCal with the iPhone's calendar. Then when you plug in your iPad and sync your iPad, it too will update with the same information from iCal.

Purposefully NOT syncing only one calendar in iCal, possibility?

Does anyone know of a way to purposefully NOT sync only one of my ical calendars across MobileMe, while still syncing the rest?
I'm using the calendar in question to automatically run an application every hour on my home computer using ical alarms. I have my home computer and work computers synced through mobileme so that my calendars will show up on my work computer. Problems is I do not want the application to be run every hour on my work computer. Unchecking the calendar did not seem to stop the alarms from going off on the work computer. Can anyone think of a way I can keep the calendar at home but not have it sync to mobileme?
Thanks!

I bought and have used BusySync with great success http://www.busymac.com/
My only caveat is that I've had problems recently that are probably due to the fact I've also installed Appigo Sync, and with syncing via MobileMe I may have had too many cooks in the kitchen.
Good luck!

Can I use Google Sync to transfer only my contacts from my IPhone 4 to my gmail acct? I don't want to sync info from Gmail to the IPhone. Can the sync work only one-way? I have 0 contacts on my gmail as I'll only use it as a back-up 4 my IPhone contacts.

Can I use Google Sync to transfer only my contacts from my IPhone 4 to my gmail account? I do not want to sync info from Gmail to the IPhone. Can the sync work only one-way? I have 0 contacts & 0 calendar events on my gmail account. I opened the Gmail account specifically to for the Google Sync and wil only be using this account as a back-up for my IPhone contacts. Please Help!!

You do realize that the SIM only contains account information for your wireless account.
Moving the SIM from phone to phone does not cause any of your iTunes content, contacts, email, etc to magically appear on the device.

Can someone explain to me why iTunes will only sync photos ONE WAY from my PC to my iPhone, and not vice versa?

I have photos on my iPhone and want to put them on my PC. Should be straightforward, right?
So I go ahead and install iTunes, and plug in my phone, and sure enough iTunes tells me I've got 1610 photoes on my iPhone. It won't let me actually SEE them, of course. Fine (no, not really fine). So I create a blank folder on my PC and proceed to do a sync. My options are to (a) Sync FROM "My Pictures" to the phone, or (b) choose another and sync FROM my PC TO the phone.
Where is the option to sync FROM my phone TO my PC????
It boggles my mind that I have to go outside of iTunes and use Windows Explorer to copy the photos from the phone to the computer. So I go to "My Computer" and within the iphone Internal Storage there is only a DCIM folder and two sub-folders. There are only 800 photos there! Where are the other ones?
Evidently what I can see from Windows Explorer is ONLY the pictures I took with the phone itself, and NOT the pictures I saved from email attachments or instant messages! Why? Where are they and how can I access them???
SO far, the closest thing I have been able to find is to have to buy a third party App like "Simple Transfer" to do this. Is this really the case? Or am I missing something?

Photo sync is only one way, computer to iPhone.
To get pictures from the iPhone to the computer, copy them to the computer as you would with any other device.
Pictures saved from emails or instant messages (if done on the device) are in the camera roll.
Pictures previously synced to the device from a computer are not available to be copied off the device. They should already be on a computer.

Iphone 5 - only one way synchronization with iCal

Hello community,
Since I have my new iPhone 5 the calendar synchronization is not working properly anymore which means only one way from iCal to iPhone but not the other direction. I could not found a solution in the diverse support communities so maybe you have an idea what the error might be?
I am synchronizing locally via iTunes from a Mac Book Pro and I am not using iCloud.
It would be great if you could help.
Greetings from Zurich,
Heike Anna

This is generally an indication that the synchronization framework on your machine is not handling data changes properly, and must be reset.
To reset it, launch iSync—that's right: iSync, not iTunes—then…
• open the Preferences… dialog
• press the Reset Sync History button
That will remove the records currently stored in your truth database, and force a first-time, slow synchronization event when you next launch one in iTunes.

Hi and welcome to the forums!
Delete the intellisync folder, and go through the setup wizard again.
Select only calendar, one day prior and past. Set up for one way device to Outlook.
Set conflict resolution to notify you. If successful. Try the one way device to Outlook sync
for the full calendar, again with notification to you for conflict, that way you can keep
unwanted deletes from occurring. If successful. Go to the device setup wizard and
set up for the normal two way sync for all apps. I do recommend keeping the conflict
resolution to notify you. It can be very useful in keeping small problems for becoming
major. The link for deleting the folder is on the bottom of the page:
