Itunes could not sync calendars to the iPhone "TheButler's Phone" because the sync server failed to sync the iPhone, anyone?

Hi
This is the error message that I recieve when I try to sync:
Itunes could not sync calendars to the iPhone "TheButler's Phone" because the sync server failed to sync the iPhone, anyone?
Everything has worked perfectly for over 1 year, this is an all of a sudden event.
Thank you,
Ron

  • ITunes could not synch calendars to iPhone because the iPhone disconnected

    Started getting an error message during iPhone synch about two weeks ago: "iTunes could not synch calendars to iPhone because the iPhone disconnected"
    - Am synching to my Outlook calendar on a system running Windows 7
    - Everything else (contacts, podcasts, audiobooks, etc.) synchs just fine
    - Tried totally resetting the iPhone and restoring the firmware
    - Tried deleting the backups, preferences and resetting synch history
    - Tried forcing a rewrite/replacement of the calendar database using iTunes
    Nothing sems to work...still get the same message about not synching the calendar due to the iPhone disconnecting, but of course, it really hasn't disconnected since I can get it to immediately synch anything else.
    Any ideas out there? Thanks...

    Thanks midwestcraft. I had this problem and your answer solved it for me.
    Thought this further info may be of use to some who wants more historic dates in their calendar.
    I had "do not sync events older than" unchecked and the input field set to "0". When I changed it to 180, it worked perfectly. I've found that I can increase this number to "545" - anything higher causes the error. This seems to coincide with some strange multiple-entry events in my calendar.
    Don't know if this will be a clue for somebody to fix the issue.

  • HT1926 Re-downloaded iTunes, could not update, error message is APSDaemon.exe and MSVCR80.dll "Apple mobile device failed to start".... help?

    That's the error message I'm getting. I keep troubleshooting my computer, and trying to troubleshoot iTunes and it's not working or coming up with anything.
    I just used my iTunes yesterday and it was working fine, all I did was try to update it today and then this happened.
    Now I can't even open iTunes...
    Please help!

  • 'Could not Sign In' Apple ID couldn't be created because of a server error.

    I recently attempted to restore my iPod and cannot get any further than the security question and terms to agree to.  My email address is [email protected]   Please help!

    I just spent a week with an applecare T2 trying to figure this out, but we finally did!
    It turns out that (at least in my case) I had to go to http://appleid.apple.com and re-enter my password security questions and birthday. Once I did this and tried to restore, everything worked as expected.
    I should explain that, in my case, as soon as I entered my apple ID and password after choosing to restore from icloud, it would ask for my birthday and to fill out one security question. Once I did the security stuff, it no longer asked for these on the phone.
    I hope this solves your problem like it did mine!

    When I sync my iPhone with iTunes I get an error message that says "iTunes could not sync calendars to the iPhone because the sync server failed to sync the iPhone"  How do I fix this?

    I had the same problem.  I found this site http://itprokb.blogspot.com/2010/10/itunes-could-not-sync-calendars-to.html
    It worked for me.  Good luck!

    My problem - when syncing and error messages  comes up:  iTunes could not sync calendars to the iPhone because an error occurred while margin data."  I've tried turning the phone off and back on, & tried both USB ports but get the same thing.  What can I do next since it doesn't give me even one clue as to what the error would be?

    Before I started to resync calendars one by one as suggested in the troubleshooting article, I remembered something that came up in a sync when I first attempted :  a 'which one do you want to keep' message about a repeating calendar event, which came up with three options, one from Calendar, and two from iCal on the phone.  I deleted that event, then went through the calendar resync one by one, and all seems OK now.
    In Music there is a way to find 'ghost' items that show up as grayed-out on the menus, so that you can try to reassociate or delete them.  It would be nice to have a similar way to work with Calendar!
    Thanks for pointing me to the right article.

  • "iTunes could not sync calendars to the iPhone "ABC" because the iPhone disconnected"

    Hi.
    So, I have an iPhone 4 running iOS 4.3.5. I am syncing it using iTunes version 10.4.1 running on a MacBookPro running Mac OSX 10.7.1.
    When I do a sync it runs through the usual steps, including the step where it says it is syncing calendars, and each step appears to complete in the iTunes window. However, as it finishes, a warning message appears saying "iTunes could not sync calendars to the iPhone "ABC" because the iPhone disconnected". Here's a screen grab of the error message:-
    Now, the phone has not physically disconnected. I'm a bit baffled by this. It is a new iPhone 4, but inital syncs were performed without any difficulty. I have tried inserting a TEST event, to make sure that there is in fact a difficulty with the sync, and I can confirm that the error is not a phantom; syncs are not taking place. In additon, I have tried (albeit not methodically) to vary the particular calendars that are to sync, and the sync settings around old events, but to no avail.
    Any suggestions for trouble shooting this would be gratefully received.
    Thanks.

    This seems to solve the problem but we'll wait and see...

  • "iTunes could not sync calendars to the iPhone "name" because the sync server failed to sync the iPhone".

    I get the message "iTunes could not sync calendars to the iPhone "name" because the sync server failed to sync the iPhone" every time I sync the iPhone 3GS with iTunes by USB.  Can anyone help? Please !!!!

    I posted the following to "iTunes could not sync calendars to the iPhone "xx" because the sync server failed to sync the iPhone. What does this mean??" at https://discussions.apple.com/message/15820680#15820680
    I haven't seen it mentioned but the secret is to
    Sync only selected calendars
    Select "Remove Calendars" from the popup window
    (This is ambigous: from where are the calendars removed?  From the device being synced to)
    Click apply.
    Oops!  My memory is already gone stale.  I think I left no calendars selected, then clicked apply.  Then I selected the calendars that I wanted, then clicked apply.
    In any case, I had a blank calendar on my iPad and then I had all the updated events that I wanted on my iPad.
    Thanks to all who provided some of the essential clues to resolving this problem.

  • Itunes could not sync calendars to the iPhone because the iPhone disconnected

    Just went to sync my iphone today and got this message:

  • When syncing my iphone i get a msg, "itunes could not sync calendars to the iphone because an error occurred while merging data"   I sync my calendar to outlook.  My iphone calendar has all and the most updated information.  Outlook shows only recurringMY

    I'm at a loss as to what to do. Any help is appreciated.  When syncing my iphone I get an message, "itunes could not sync calendars to the iphone because an error ocurred while merging data" I sync my calendar to outlook.  My iphone calendar has all and the most updated information.  Outlook calendar only shows my recurring events. 

    hi there,
    i've found a great & simple solution for this problem
    just open your iCloud acc on iPhone
    turn off calendars (it wil ask you to keep info or not - KEEP IT!)
    and turn back on (MERGE!)
    now SYNC it..
    and that's it
    PS in my case it was contacts so the procedure is the same..

  • ITunes could not sync calendars to iPhone because the iPhone disconnected

    error message
    iTunes could not sync calendars to iPhone because the iPhone disconnected
    I have spoken to Apple a couple of times in the last week (approx 2hr) apple support said it could be a Microsoft issue I have spoken to Microsoft and read endless information from the net and it seems that Microsoft is not the issue.
    I have uninstalled itunes and reinstalled, reset all settings in Settings\General on the phone, reset sync history on the iPhone, upgraded microsoft office 2003 to 2007 and I am still getting the error message.
    I have a iPhone 3G, pc is running windows 7 and just upgraded to microsoft office Home and Student 2007 and Office Outlook 2007.
    iTunes version 11.0.2.26
    iPhone iOS 6.1.3
    I have the same error on my wife's iPhone as well.
    Any help would be great.

  • ITunes could not sync calendars to ---'s iPhone because the sync server failed to sync the iPhone

    iTunes could not sync calendars to ---'s iPhone because the sync server failed to sync the iPhone. How can this be resolved? I can figure out if the sync server failed to sync then iTunes would not sync the calendars.  Everything syncs on my iPad mini 3 wifi and my iphone syncs my contacts but not the calendars. So what gives?

    Brenden,
    thanks for the reply, but the troubleshooting tips seemed to concentrate on 'Lion"," Snow Leopard" and the like, I haven't a clue what any of that is. I am using Windows 7 Pro with Service Pack 1 on my desktop and my iPhone is using iOS 8.1.2, as is my iPad mini.  As I said on my previous post, syncing on my iPad mini works fine, It is just the iPhone that fails to sync the calendars. Hopefully a solution can be found as it is difficult to keep things synced on my iPad  and then have to add everything manually onto my iPhone.
