Events created on my iPhone 5 calendar are no longer syncing with iCal.

Events created on my iPhone 5 calendar are no longer syncing with iCal on my Macbook Pro (Lion OSX). It works fine the other way around.
I can't understand why, and cannot find a solution. Please help!

You can no longer sync via iTunes. That method of sync was removed (and the 1000+ post thread is arguments over things tangientally related to that).
You need to sync via other means than iTunes, then.
One option is to use iCloud. If you sign into iCloud on all your devices, and then make sure your calendars are in the "iCloud" section on your devices, they should sync.
If you don't want to use iCloud, you could use Google calendars, they operate much the same way (but may be less reliable).
Or if you use Exchange for work, you could sync that way.
Or if none of those are acceptable, you could install OS X Server and set up the calendar server on your local network and use it to sync. This is fairly straightforward "for setting up a UNIX calendar server" but it's not trivial and beyond the scope of a forum post to explain it all

IPhone Calendar Entries No Longer Sync With iCal or MobileMe Account

I've been experiencing this for a few months now, and was hoping someone might have some ideas on how to fix this issue I am having.
Every time I enter a new entry onto my Calendar from my iPhone... those entries do not show up on either my Desktop iCal or Mobile Me account online (this used to work). However... if I enter a new entry on either my desktop or Mobile Me account... those entries do show up on my iPhone.
I do not sync my Contacts or Calendars using iTunes. That is turned off. I sync through MobileMe.
Any help would be appreciated.

On your iPhone, go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
Select your MobileMe account.
Turn Calendars off for over the air syncing. A warning message will be provided indicating your MobileMe online calendars and calendar events will be deleted from your iPhone with an option to keep the calendars on your iPhone or delete from your iPhone. Select Delete from My iPhone.
Follow this by turning Calendars back on for over the air syncing.
Enter a new calendar event on your iPhone to test if the new calendar event shows up with your MobileMe online calendar and with iCal on your Mac.

IPhone 3GS calendar is no longer syncing with iCal

iPhone 3GS calendar is no longer syncing with iCal since upgrade to Lion. No issues prior to upgrade. Ideas?

I am having the same problem. I have snow leopard and since I upgraded to itune 5.0, I have had nothing but problems. In icloud, all of my events quadrupled which then caused all my ical events to do the same on my computer and phone. What a nightmare! The apple support guy had never seen anything like it! I have since cleaned up my calendar on both my phone and macbook, but now any event I add to my phone does not show up during sync. I noticed that when I go into mail, contacts, calendars and then go into my gmail account, the calendar button is set to off. If i try to switch it on, I get a message asking what I would like to do with the local calendars on my phone. I am afraid to do anything so I just cancel! Any thoughts? The calendar on my computer is current so I could always over write my phone during a sync--but still unsure. Thanks

IPhone 3G will no longer sync with iCal?

I have been trying to sync for a couple of days but it just won't add any of the new appointments I add to the phone?
It has all the old appointments in iCal but won't sync the new stuff.
I just did a complete Restore of my phone which has not helped?
Any idea's?
thanks
Using MBP to sync.

Hey Allan,
The funny thing is that I don't get that option on my mac in prefs.
I get it on my windows itunes (which is where I set-up my account and sync most things)
I use my mac purely to sync with ical for a back-up for my calander and address book.
Had no problem before a day or so ago?
thanks!

My iPhone calendar entries won't sync with my iCal using iTunes

Hi,
For some odd reason my iPhone calendar entries will not sync with my iCal using the sync feature in iTunes.
The syncing of everything else seems to be working just fine but in the last couple of days ~ now the calendars won't sync.
Entries that I've made in iCal sync alright to my iPhone but not the other way around.....
Anyone out there got any suggestions???

First make sure you are entering the events on your phone to your Mac calendar and not some other calendar such as On My iPhone. If you are, and they still won't sync, try resetting the SyncServices folder on your mac, as explained in this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1627, then try syncing your calendar again. (If you are prompted when syncing your calendar, choose Merge.)

After updating all devices, my calendars are no longer syncing

My calendars are no longer syncing together. I have done all updates to all devices iphone 4, ipad, macbook pro. Now they no longer sync together. Any suggestions?

Have you set up iCloud on all of these devices?

TS3989 Pictures that I have taken on my Iphone 4 are no longer syncing to my Photo stream on my Windows PC. I have photo stream checked on my Iphone. Any ideas?

Pictures that I have taken with my Iphone 4 are no longer syncing to my Photo Stream foleder on my PC. I have Photo Stream checked on my phone? I worked yesterday. Any ideas?

    •    Photostream only syncs photos over Wi-Fi, make sure you are connected to Wi-Fi to begin with.
    •    Photostream only syncs when the camera app is closed, ensure it is closed.
    •    Photostream only syncs when the battery is above 20%, try recharging the device
Try disabling photo stream on your device (settings > iCloud), restarting your device and then re-enabling photo stream.
If this doesn't help you may need to reset photo stream. You can do this at icloud.com by clicking on your name in the top right corner and then the advanced settings in the pop-up dialogue box that appears.
Note: disabling photostream and re-enabling it will result in any photos that are currently in the photostream album on your device, that are older than 30 days old, not being added back.

IPhone Calendar wiped out after sync with an empty Outlook 2003 Calendar

I need some help.
iPhone Calendar wiped out after sync with an empty Outlook 2003 Calendar.
Unable to restore from backup as my iPhone was backed-up before I realised my calendar info was gone.
I found an old backup file in my old disk but was unable to move the old calendar data to the empty outlook after restore. It just keep wiping out after I sync.
Thanks.

I have managed to find an old back up to restore my iPhone. However even with at least one entry in my outlook, my calendar details on my iPhone was still wiped out and was not transferred to my outlook.

My iphone 4s is no longer syncing with my computer. Why? My software on the computer IS the latest version. Iphone 4 cannot be updated due to lack of storage

My iphone 4s is no longer syncing with my computer. Why? My software on the computer IS the latest version. Iphone 4 cannot be updated due to lack of storage

What happens when you try to sync? Do you see any error messages? Which software on the computer are you referring to, iTunes? The latest iTunes is 11.1.3. If you cannot update the phone due to lack of storage, you will need to delete some content from the phone.

FYI: It seems it was a network problem with my WinXP PC. After complete deletion and new installation of XP and iTunes my iPhone will be recognized correctly, Wifi synchronization works (mostly) fine.

HT1296 Events entered in my iPhone 3GS will no longer sync to my Outlook 2010 calendar - what's up?

Some change in iOS I suppose makes it so events entered in my iPhone 3GS will no longer populate my Outlook 2010 calendar when I sync the devices through iTunes. It used to be that events entered in each place would populate the other locationg when synced. No longer!
There are two calendars in iPhone now and I don't know why.
Can anyone help me find out what's going on?

Ok! So I just came across this randomly in another thread from user Kempas (thanks a lot!). It totally fixed the problem so I thought I'd repost it!
https://discussions.apple.com/message/10644045#10644045
Ok, I'm assuming everyone who is having trouble with Windows 7 (64-bit? mine is) has tried the following solution I found over at en.kioskea.net posted by a guy called Steve78545 (hey, you got to give a dude his due).
It's maybe because Windows 7 uses a MTP driver instead of the USBAAPL by default, and what you need is an 'Apple Mobile Device USB Driver' which you might not have in 'Universal Serial Bus Controllers' (check it and see). If you haven't got it, as good ol' Steve78545 suggested:
Update the driver by expanding 'Portable Devices' from the list, right click Apple iPhone/iPhone and select 'Update Driver Software'. Then select 'Browse My computer...'
Copy the following path and paste it in - C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\Drivers - then hit 'Next'.
Let the thing do it's...thing an it should work. At least it did for me, so I hope it helps a few people out!

With Update 1.1.3 iPhone no longer syncs with iCal

I run Leopard on a MacBook Pro. After upgrading my iPhone to 1.1.3, iCal and the calendar on iPhone no longer syncs, at all. I brought this to the NYC Soho Apple Store, but the genius couldn't figure it out. Only the two default calendars "Home" and "Work" synced, although not every time. Help! What should I do now? Enter events twice? Once in the iPhone, since that's what I take with me, and once on iCal, since when restoring iPhone settings that's what's used? Many thanks!

I'm not sure I understand what the problem is -- first you said it doesn't sync at all, and then you said that your Home and Work calendars sync intermittently.
Personally, I would do several things:
1) Make sure you are not using Entourage -- and if you are, make sure all Sync functions are unchecked in preferences so that nothing is using Mac's sync services and copying back and forth.
2) Print out your calendars (use month view) for the entire year so that you have a backup.
3) Do you need to have separate calendars? I find it ridiculous personally to have work and home and entourage calendars, and combine them into one. It's all my calendar information anyway, and it goes with me everywhere, why would I want more than one calendar....anyway....not to get off on a tangent...
If you can do without two calendars, combine them all into one (you export one of them, then import it back into the other one, then delete the one your exported and imported. You can do a search for the help topic on how to combine calendars.
Rename the one combined calendar your name, rather than home or work. Sync your iPhone. On the Info tab, make sure that you have the calendar name selected (it will recognize the new name of your calendar. Also make sure you have the sync to: Your Name calendar selected.
4) If that does not work, I would totally delete all of my calendars from iCal - and sync (to erase all the calendar information from your iPhone).
5) Create a new calendar, and manually re-enter all your calendar information. Sync new information to your iPhone.
In reality -- I have no idea why you are having problems -- I also have 1.1.3 on my iPhone, and I also sync with iCal. I haven't had any problems -- but then I only have the one calendar.

Iphone 3G will no longer sync with MacPro

my iphone 3G will now not sync. I get this: The iPhone "TM's iphone" cannot be synced. The disk could not be read from or written to.
Has anyone seen this? Is the "disk" the computer (MacPro 10.6.8 running latest itunes) or the iphone 3G 4.2.1 o.s.?
Thanks.

Calendar will no longer sync with iPhone

My calendar would sync with no problems and now it won't update the information on my iphone so I am stuck with the old information and having to manually update the calendar.
Please help.
Using version 6.0 of calendar
Using version 10.7 of iTunes
Using 6.0.1 on iPhone
Using OS X 10.8.2
Everything says it's up to date. When I attempt to sync, nothing changes on the calendar.
Thank you,
Amy

Have you run scanpst.exe? That file is in the Microsoft Office folder. That does a scan of your Outlook.pst file and can help fix problems. Can you remember what you were doing when the problem began. Many times recurring appointments with open end dates can cause problems. Another thing that Outlook/Apple do not like too well are the way you set a reminder in an appointment. If you have an appointment with a reminder that is set to zero in Outlook, it can confuse the Apple calendar. Another thing to check is in iTunes, and that is resetting the sync history.
Also, you should not have to re-enter years of data, since the iPhone by default only syncs the last 30 days worth of data. Your archive generally is just resident on the computer. Once data goes to archive, it is removed from the phone due to the time period.
Try creating a new calendar in Outlook and put a couple of dummy appointments in it. Connect the iPhone to iTunes and set iTunes to sync all calendars. See if this new calendar syncs. If it does, you can import all of your old calendar data as Lawrence states to the new calendar and make that your default calendar by deleting the old one.
See if any of these steps helps.

My calendar will no longer sync with my iPhone 6 or my iPad 2 after upgrading to yosemite

I have noticed that my Calendar on my iMac will not sync at all to my iPhone 6 or my iPad 2 since upgrading to Yosemite OS. I have done all of the upgrades that Apple has sent out and both devices are at 8.1.2. I have tried following several different things people have posted but nothing is working. Am losing all faith in Mac since the incorporation of iCloud. Please help!

First, SyncServices has nothing to do with iCloud.
1. Calendars in the On My Mac or On My iPhone/iPad/iPod category, and calendars that sync with other network services such as Google, will not sync with iCloud.
2. Back up all data, then take all the applicable steps in these support articles:
iCloud: Troubleshooting iCloud Calendar
iCloud: Advanced Calendar and iCal troubleshooting
Nearly all sync issues should be resolved that way. Please make sure you've taken all the steps and tested adequately before continuing.
3. If there are any calendars on your Mac that you don't synchronize with iCloud, export them by selecting them in the calendar list and then selecting
          File ▹ Export ▹ Export…
from the menu bar. Quit Calendar.
4. Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:
~/Library/Calendars
Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
          Services ▹ Reveal
from the contextual menu.* A Finder window should open with a folder selected. Move that folder to the Desktop.
5. Launch Calendar. Your calendars will initially be gone, but they should resynchronize with iCloud. If they don't, uncheck the boxes marked Calendars and Reminders in the iCloud preference pane, then re-check them.
6. Import the calendars you exported in Step 3, if any, by double-clicking the files.
7. If the issue is resolved, close the Finder window you opened in Step 4. Delete the exported files and the Calendars folder on the Desktop.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
          Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
