Why do I get duplication of Contacts and Calendar events.
I just purchased the Iphone 3GS and have a problem with duplication of calendar events AND contacts.
I "THINK" the problem is that I set it up to syn with mobile me and also perhaps with my itunes when I connect it for ringtones, video's, music, etc.
For example under contacts, I have a section called "From my Mac" and one "my xxx@mac (mobile me)
I think this is where it comes from.
Any help on explaining this and what to do without screwing my system up, would be GREATLY appreciated.

Up to a week ago I'd been using my Outlook calendar to synch to the iPhone. Last week I set up a Google calendar and synched that with Outlook and in turn with the phone - so I got two lots of everything appearing in my phone calendar, and opted for just one to show.
As mine both had identical information in (as they came from the same source) there was little point my having the Google calendar synched to the phone, it was more an excercise of checking what would happen.
I have a choice of either of the calendars to show through, or both - and if I choose both naturally there are double entries.
I assume what you have done is the same.
So for the calendar just decide which of the two you want to be the one that shows through on the iPhone.
I don't have duplicate contacts though.

HT1296 When syncing to ipod and ipad i get duplicate contacts and calendar events
Probllems syncing contacts and calendare events. I get dups and triplicates
How are you syncing? Are you syncing through itunes, icloud or both? Most issues come from syncing the same data/content from more than one source.

Why don't all my contacts and calendar events on my iMac (version 10.7.4) stream onto iCloud? For instance, there are 470 entries in my address book but only 270 on iCloud. And not all my appointments in iCal are transferred either.
I have the same problem transfering Address book on iMac to contacts on iPhone (old version 3G - on iCloud). this is a hard wired connectionMight you have 200 entries in On My Mac groups and some of your appointments in On My Mac calendars?
-
Why can´t I see contacts and calendar events already registered in my iPhone, in my Mac Pro ? I already actualize LION OSX and selected these items in the adjustments menu of the icloud. I could do it just once, after I installed Lion OSX, but up to the moment it does not updates.
Assuming you activated iCloud, try going to Settings>iCloud and make sure Calendars and Contacts are set to ON.

I can't get the iCloud Contacts and Calendar folders to appear in Outlook 2010 using the iCloud Control Panel. Also the datafile share which ends in .aplzod is not created in Outlook. The Contacts and Calendar are sent to iCloud (verified on iCloud.com) but the iCloud folders are not created in Outlook in the Contacts and Calendar navigation panes. I get a message toward the end of the sync process indicating that there was an unspecified error. I'm using the newest version of the iCloud Control Panel, the 32 bit version of Outlook 2010, Windows 7 64 bit, an iPhone 3GS, and the latest version of iTunes. Any ideas how to complete the sync process to the end?
Pretty much the same for me: Windows 7 64-bit, Outlook 2010, iCloud Control Panel 1.0.1, iPhone 3GS. Error report at end of setup process is shown below, and has been emailed. Any help please?
Your setup couldn't be started because of an unexpected error.

How do I get my Iphone contacts and calendars (Outlook created msg file) to my new Windows 7 LT running Windows Live Mail (free) that doesn't recognize Outlook files??
Is there a good free converter of msg files to windows live mail file?
This is not funDid you try the iPhone syncing options in iTunes?
Click on your iPhone in iTunes, and check under the Info section where you can choose which app to sync with. Is Windows Live Mail an option? -
Newly entered contacts and calendar events entered on my IPhone 5s are not syncing to google.
Facts that may be pertinent:
- I switched from the iPhone 4 to the iPhone 5s and did the easy option of having it automatically set up like my previous phone, so I did not change any part of the setup. It is possible that it stopped syncing at that time, based on which contacts have synced and which haven't.
- My gmail account is set up as Exchange, with Mail, Contacts, and Calendars set to sync.
- Server: m.google.com, Use SSl is on, S/MIME is off (I don't actually know what these are, but maybe they matter?)
- Fetch New Data / Gmail account is set to Push
- Contacts and Calendar Default Account is Gmail
- In the Contacts app under Groups I have only GMAIL checked.
I've read that Google recommends CardDAV, which I gather is not the same as Exchange?
I'm afraid to delete anything and start over, for fear of losing my contacts.
Is there a difference between the gmail account I set up and what the Contacts app calls GMAIL?
If there is anything I should communicate about how things are set up on the Google end, let me know.
Thanks in advance for help!Hello Marsden,
Try this...
Go to the isync program on your Mac.
Go to Preferences in the main menu
Hit Reset Sync History
I'm pretty sure this is how I fixed it... so far so good.
Let me know if that works for you! -
I've lost the contacts and calendar events (& email) from my 3GS after setting up iCloud with iPad3 and PC Outlook. Any solutions?
I tried to re-synch it with the PC iTunes, but no luck, even when re-checking the boxes for Outlook...I should mention that i have NOT upgraded to iOS 5 on the 3GS and don't want to. Therefore, no iCloud on the phone.

Many contacts and calendar events have disappeared
Many of my contacts and calendar events have suddenly disappeared. Can they be retrieved?
Mine too. I have a J Home and J Work calendar. The J Home calendar is completely gone and had all my personal events. I checked iCloud and it is gone there. No one has access except me. I opened my calendar on my iphone this afternoon to add an appt for my son. The data was there and basically disappeared in front of my eyes. I didn't touch the calendars menu until everything was gone so it wasn't me. I'm losing my mind right now. Everything is gone...just gone.
I just noticed my wife's shared calendars also no longer appear on my phone or iCloud. Both of her calendars appear on her iCloud and they still say they are shared with me. That's just f****n great. iCloud broke something and I'm the one to suffer. I'll bet anything Apple won't do anything to help as they don't back up iCloud data. I'm sure they do as they are required by law, but they won't admit it. SONOFA!!!! -

BlackBerry Desktop Software utilizes Apple's SyncServices technology in order to synchronize Contact, Calendar, Notes, and Tasks information to and from the Mac computer.
BlackBerry Desktop Software synchronizes information with the SyncServices database, which is synchronized with the desktop applications on the Mac computer (for example: Apple Address Book, iCal, Apple Mail, Microsoft Outlook for Mac). BlackBerry Desktop Software does not synchronize directly to or from the desktop applications on the Mac computer.
Mac OS X Mavericks v10.9 and later does not use SyncServices, therefore, it is not possible to synchronize Contact or Calendar information using the BlackBerry Desktop Software on these versions of OS X.
For more information on SyncServices and OS X Mavericks, see the following Apple Support article:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5847
Note: BlackBerry Desktop software 2.4 is still supported for use with Mac OS X v10.6, 10.7, and 10.8.

Sync Duplication of Contacts and Calendars
Hi all,
I am having duplication issues with Contacts and Calendars. I tried getting iPhone (via iTunes), iCal and Google Calendar to sync up but strange anomalies took hold such as conflicting dates. So I bought Spanning Sync. This promised to eradicate and "robust up" my syncing. Now the problem is that all of my contacts on the iPhone appear twice many of my calendar entries appear twice too. Very annoying. I'm predicting responses like "3rd party software makes it hard to diagnose", but I did try with Mac and Google on their own but they wouldn't work.
I have since checked and unchecked all the boxes in iTunes (related to iPhone syncing) and re-synced but to no avail.
Hoping someone has experience of something similar and a solution!
Thanks
Ben

Why is my iPad not syncing contacts and calendars?
I am baffled. When I look at the settings on my iPad it says that it is set to sync these things with my computer. When I plug it into iTunes, I get the message from iTunes that my settings for contacts and calendars are being automatically synced with iCloud, and that syncing through the computer may generate double entries. However, it is NOT syncing automatically. My iPhone was syncing, but does not have the latest entries on my computer calendar. Can someone tell me how to get both devices to sync automatically? Also, how soon should the syncing take place when a new entry is made? Thanks, Barbara

Contacts and calendar events disappearing and reappearing
I have three issues, two of which I think are related.
1.
My contacts disappear on my iPhone 3G. I am set up with MobileMe to auto sync and I don't know if that is getting screwed up somehow? The contact are on my Mac lap top when I go look (thank goodness), and I force a sync and they transfer to my phone fine. This has happened twice now. I have copied my contacts as vCards and saved that file in the downloads folder just in case they get lost on both my laptop and my iPhone - I also do a regular full laptop backup to my Time Machine - is there anything else I should be doing to back up my contact and calendar data?
2. (possibly related to 1.)
When I am looking at my iCal in the weekly view on my laptop, sometimes several of my appointments are not visible. It is only when I try to put an appointment in that is at the same time as the invisible ones that they suddenly reappear.
3. One of my contacts will not sync from my iPhone to my lap top? It used to be in both places but for some reason it is now only on my iPhone and even when I sync, it doesn't come into my laptop Address Book.
Help please!!!i am having what i think is a very similar problem in that my Exchange (you seem to use only mobileme) contacts partially disappear. i discover this when i check my sms message list and find that many messages show only the phone number when earlier the name was there. a check of the contacts list shows that some have disappeared.
i restarted the phone and checked immediately but it was still gone but after a few minutes they came back.
my theory is that something is going on with messy exchange server syncs with my iphone that could be causing the process to break midway but after a while the phone automatically syncs again.
this issue appears quite rarely for me but enough to be noticed and to be annoying. -
How to delete all contacts and calendar events?
I had previously told my iPod Touch to sync my contacts, calendars, and e-mail accounts with my computer (Mac) and sync via MobileMe. Now, I'm giving away my iPod Touch and I don't want to new owners to have access to my calendar, contacts, and mail. I've gotten rid of the mail by deleting all my accounts, and in iTunes I've stopped syncing of calendars, contacts, and mail, but there's still my contacts and calendar on my iPod. Is this because of MobileMe or just because it didn't take them off the iPod? How can I stop MobileMe syncing to my iPod Touch and get rid of my contacts and calendars off my iPod without having to just go one by one and delete them?
Delete an account from iPod touch: Choose “Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars,” choose an account, then scroll down and tap Delete Account.
Deleting an account means you can no longer access the account with your iPod touch. All email and the contacts, calendar, and bookmark information synced with the account are removed from iPod touch. However, deleting an account doesn’t remove the account or its associated information from your computer. -
