Deleting calendars in iPhone

Accidentally synced all calendars (3) to iPhone. Want to delete 1 of the calendars off the iPhone but don't want to delete it on the MAC. Don't see anyway to delete a calendar on the iPhone. How can this be done?

You can't do it on the phone, but you can in iTunes. When your phone is connected to iTunes, click on the info tab. Under calendars, check only the calendars you want to sync to the phone. This should fix the problem on the phone.

Deleting calendars on iphone

I deleted from iCal a few calendars, but -after syncing iphone with iTunes (I don't have mobileMe)- I found that deleted calendars were still on my iPhone.
I know that I cannot delete calendars using iPhone so I think that I can choose (using iTunes) to write the whole content of my iCal (from Mac) over the one in my iPhone. I suppose that this overwriting should solve the problem. Am I right? What do you think about it? Is it possible something is wrong?
Yes, guys, I've already read something about this problems, but I found the solutions clever, but not simple.
And it seems to me that my way could be easier and get the goal as well.
Should it?

How can you delete empty calendars when you are not using MobileMe? Initially I had tried to sync my iPhone with both my home computer and my work computer. At home I was syncing everything. At work I only want to sync my calendar and my contacts. At present I have four calendars on my iPhone. Three of them are empty. two are named Calendar and the other two are named _ModCal6d4d.Calendar and _ModCal7b41.Calendar. What makes this even more frustrating in that the the color of the active calendar changes frequently. I have tried syncing from iTunes on my work PC and inicating that the PC should replace the calendars but this does seem to make a difference. I have tried selecting a single calendar but that doesn't seem to remove the other calendars.
This is quite frustrating. If anyone has a solution I would greatly appreciate hearing it.

How can I remove seemingly "non-deletable" calendars on my iPhone 4S?

How do I delete multiple calendars from my iPhone that were left in the wake of switching to iCloud (from MobileMe) then back out—since I'm not up to 10.7 on my Mac yet?

Yaaaay, a solution!!! :-) After reading

No wonder I was having this mulitple calendars problem ~ I'd had opted to sync "All calendars". But once I checked individual calendars in "Selected Calendars" and sync'd that to my phone the 'multiples' went away!
THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!

Deleted calendar items still appearing on iPhone

Calendar items deleted on the PC (Outlook 2003 or Entourage 2008 - 12.1.7, - both linked to Exchange Server 2007) remain in the iPhone (OS 2.2.1) calendar. I am using wireless Exchange ActiveSync.
It was working fine, but has now stopped removing deleted items.
Calendar items added on the iPhone show up in Outlook/Entourage, so no problem in this area.
I have tried turning 'off' the Calendar on the iPhone, then turning in 'on', allowing it to re-sync, but this has not solved the problem. My MobileMe accounts are all fine.
I had Xerox DocuShare client add-on installed on Outlook 2003, but this was installed well before the problem appeared. It have uninstalled it, just to be sure, but the issue was not resolved.
I am mystified as to why this issue should appear. Any ideas? Thanks in anticipation.

Thanks for the suggestion Allan.
I deleted the Exchange account and recreated it. Unfortunately the deleted items still appear.
I thought it may be linked to the deletion of single occasions of repeating events, but the failure of single events to delete from the iPhone is also apparent. I appreciate the help.

How do I delete multiple events in Calendar on iPhone or iCloud?

If I want to delete multiple events in Calendar on iPhone or iCloud, is there any way to do it?
I don't want to be clicking / tapping for hours...
Thank you!

Unfortunately, I don't believe that's possible.

ICal Help Needed! (cannot delete calendars/events on computer and iPhone)

Hi Everyone,
I need some help with my iCal. Background info:
-Currently have an iPhone 3GS
-Using Google Calendar
-Use separate calendar on iPhone (Pocket Informant)
-Wanted to sync all event from Outlook to Google Calendar to iCal to two calendars on phone (this became an issue with alarms so began attempting to delete all events from the original iPhone calendar that I do not want to use)
I started by syncing my Outlook (one way) with my Google Calendar, which syncs with the iCal on computer and Pocket Informant on iPhone, as well as iCal on iPhone. Duplicate alarms started occurring on the phone (PI and iCal). I then attempted to delete all events from the iCal on the computer. One calendar remains, one that I subscribed to from Yahoo Sports. I have tried everything to delete this calendar, but it seems impossible. After I sync the phone, the subscribed calendar shows up as well as birthdays and one calendar from my Google Calendar, on my phone.
So, the issues, and what I would eventually like to see:
1. I would like all events cleared from iCal on computer (currently just subscribed calendar that will not delete)
2. I would like to delete all events from calendar on phone (subscribed calendar, birthdays, and one calendar from Google) *I cannot even delete these events by hand on my phone.
3. In the end I would like to just continue to sync Outlook with Google which syncs with PI and then do nothing with iCal (on phone and computer) *Well really I would like events from Google synced with iCal on computer, but this doesn't seem feasible so I would settle with not using it at all.
The only thing I can think of to do at this point is to delete iCal, but I am not even sure this would correct the calendar issue on my phone as I am unable to delete that and the sync does not seem to be working correctly.
Any help on this would be much appreciated!
Thank you in advance!!

The edit feature was working correctly with the calendars and stopped. Performed a sync through iTunes removing syncing preferences first. Did not resolve the issue. I am considering restoring the iphone.

Is there any way to restore deleted calendars back onto my laptop from my iPhone.

I recently installed Maverick on my laptop and have been having trouble syncing my iphone calendars with my laptop calendars, like I used to.
Like an idiot, and without any research, I joined iCloud thinking I could sync calendars this way. I didn't realize that it deleted my calendars off my laptop in creating my iCloud calendars. The syncing with my iphone still didn't work, and so again, like an idiot and without research, I deleted my iCloud account ot discover that all my calendars on my laptop are now gone.
My iphone still has the calendars on it, (albeit old and out of date), so is there a way to restore the deleted calendars back to my laptop from my iphone or from the backup on my laptop.?
Running Maverick on laptop and iTunes 11.1.3. iPhone is an older 3gs but fully updated running 6.1.3
Please help.
Thanks!

Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it, then copy it to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
~/Library/Safari
Quit Safari.
Select
Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the Finder menu bar. Paste into the text box that opens by pressing command-V, then press return.
A folder window should open. Restore the file named "History.plist" in that folder from a backup that predates the unwanted changes.

Calendar entries made, edited or deleted on my iphone are not pushing to my PC outlook calendar.

For some reason any calendar event or entry that I create, edit or delete on my Iphone 3GS is not pushing on to my PC Outlook calendar. When I check my calendar via the web at Icloud.com the entries I create, edit or delete on my Iphone are all correct.....but for some reason they don't seem to make it on to my Outlook calendar.
On the other hand, when I create, edit or delete an event on my PC Outlook calendar they do get pushed correctly on to my Iphone.....so it seems to only be working one way.
Looking forward to any help you can provide.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
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.

How to delete a Calendar in iPhone?

I subscribe to a Swedish Holiday Calendar for iCal. When I noted that they had put the Easter in 2010 one week too late I managed to refresh it in my Mac but I can not make it change in iPhone. As there is no way to delete a Calendar i iPhone I deleted it in iCal and made a sync but it will not go away.
How to do?

Here's what you need to do:
1. Launch isync from your applications folder, itunes NOT running, under preferences, select reset sync history. Give it a minute to run, then reboot your computer.
2. Launch itunes, on the info tab, put a check in the box for the calendar/calendars you want, scroll down to "advanced", under replace info on this phone with info on this computer, select calendars, hit apply.
3. That should be the end of the calendars you don't want that were on your phone.

Someone sent me a recurring calendar appointment to my IPhone 4. I accepted it but now I would like to delete it since I am no longer attending. The planner was sent from Outlook. I cannot hit "edit" and "delete" on the IPhone. How can I delete this?

Why are random calendar events being deleted from my iphone when I sync it with ical?

My settings are such that events entered on both devices should push to both devices when I sync. The events being deleted from my iphone are not consistent (ie. older than a certain date), they are random.

This happens to me INCESSANTLY. I'm looking at my calendar events one second, and POOF!, the next second all of the events I've entered into the calendar- with the exception of birthdays that are on the actual contact information for a person- are GONE. My calendar settings are set to sync all events- no timeframe- and always have been. This happened to me nonstop on my old iPhone 3GS, and I was sure it was the phone causing this issue. Now, I have my new iPhone 5 in my hands and same ol' , different equipment. I have done EVERYTHING I can think of to prevent this from happening or to restore the data- including rebooting, holding home button and on/off at same time, etc.- and NOTHING works to restore the data. And then, just as magically as the data disappeared, POOF!- the data is back randomly sometime later. That "later" may be 5 mins, a day, several days. This is an absurd and EXASPERATING glitch that APPLE NEEDS TO FIX IMMEDIATELY!!! I'm starting to hate the iPhone and Apple in general when I continuously experience HUGE glitches like this that have a profound impact on what you're trying to accomplish within a feature that you DEPEND on... yet Apple has "never heard of that problem before". You suck, Apple. Don't send your problems out into the real world, to users who just gave you $800 for another glitchy piece of equipment that never solves your software issues.

Delete emails from iPhone 5 but not from server?

How do I delete emails from iPhone 5 but not from server?

If its a POP account try this:
Go to Settings>Mail, Contacts and Calendars
Tap on your mail account
Scroll to the bottom
Tap on Advanced
Tap on "Delete from server" and set it to "Never"

Mail won't delete messages from Iphone unless I open Mail.

I have an Exchange account set up and use MS Outlook at work. I do receive my email via push on my Iphone 4s. However, when I delete a message from my MS Outlook at work, it won't delete from my Iphone UNLESS I open up Mail. Anyone else have this issue?
I did change the setting of pushing my delete items folder in the mail settings on my Iphone. Still did nothing.

Mel,
One more thing to check on your computer...iCal>Preferences...>Accounts>Account Information>iCloud>Refresh Calendars:>Push
If that is not helpful, go through the procedures listed in iCloud: Troubleshooting iCloud Calendar.

I have DELETED calendars showing in my iTunes Sync Calendars list!?

iMac late 2009
OSx 10.10.2
iPhone 6 Plus
iOS 8.1.3
Completely Up to Date!
no clouds involved, no calendar subscriptions.
I have had a major problem with my Calendar's calendars, which I have completely repaired using Calendar. During that process, I had to rename a number of calendars in order to keep track of what I was doing - an intermediate diagnostic step. Once I'd gotten everything right, exported all the "good" calendars to .ics files, and deleted ALL CALENDARS - both the good ones and the intermediately named ones - then imported the .ics files back into Calendar... leaving me with ONE FULL SET OF CLEAN CALENDAR data. When I open Calendars on my mac, I see 33 calendars listed on the left side of the window.
My problem now that I'm ready to put my calendars back onto my phone, is that my Calendars Library (library/calendars) still has many of the intermediate calendar files (that have NOT been DELETED) and in iTunes, the list of Calendars includes all these same intermediate calendars, as well as the new calendars that I want to transfer to my phone. I would prefer to "select" "ALL CALENDARS" but I can't do that until I can remove the calendars that were supposed to be deleted/removed in the first place. In other words, I have 33 good, clean Calendars, but there are 71 Calendars in my Calendar Library.
What are the correct steps to remove the Library/Calendars folder so that the iTunes "Sync Calendars" list only shows the 33 good calendars, and not the 38 unwanted (deleted) calendars.
What do I have to do to finish the job?

I have/had the same problem. I tried deleting all the "Library" "Calendar" preference files I could find and like others nothing worked. Like others they would just recreate themselves.
BUT, I did find the solution. Not sure which part worked, but this is what I did.
I quit all the apps, Calendar, and iTunes.
I went into the folder pointed to by job-seeker above:
               <user>
               Library
               Containers
               com.aple.CalendarAgent
               Data
               Library
               Calendars
Manually went through each cached calendar folder and looked in the info.plist for the calendar title listed below "<key>Title</key>" and deleted the parent folders of no longer existent calendars.
Then find an app called "Reminders", open it and you will find all the deleted calendars that you have deleted over the years, they seem to get cached in it, delete them and quit.
Relaunch iTunes and find the deleted calendars in question are gone.
I think you could skip all the above and just try deleting the old calendars from this Reminder app and it may work, but the above is what I did when it worked for me and I do not want to recreate the problem just to verify my theory. ;-)
Hope this helps,
Michael

I can't add a new event to my calendar on iPhone.

I can't add a new event to my calendar on iPhone. The plus sign is greyed out and even when I try it with Siri it says "Sorry. I can't do that right now". I did my due diligence and searched all over the forums and internet and I can't fix this. There was a listing in a forum where a lady had this same symptom but it looks like toggling iCloud worked for her. Not for me. I went into Settings>iCloud and turned off Calendar and then turned it back on. Still nothing. I even went to iCloud Backup and turned it on then back off and still nothing. Anyone have any suggestions? Thanks!

See if you can go to your Calendars App and select a previous event to see what Calendar the event was added to (iCloud or Yahoo). After that is determined you can go to www.iCloud.com or calendar.yahoo.com and add the event there to see if it will populate on your device. Another troubleshooting step is deleting the iCloud account from your device and also deleting the Yahoo account. Then check to see if you can add an event without it syncing to a email. If you can then it may have just been a bug and you can add both accounts back and try adding the event again. I would also recommend only using one service to sync your Contacts, Calendars, Reminders, etc. Such as either iCloud only or Yahoo only, as using multiple accounts means your data is spread around and can be hard to isolate when something goes wrong.
