"Account Info Needed" and Calendar entries disappear

This is a side problem in conjunction with the perpetual "Install Update" problem (see here: http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/BlackBerry-Link/10-1-0-4181-won-t-stop-trying-to-load-and-now...
The BBQ10 device stops connecting to my desktop Outlook (calendar, contacts, tasks)
Symptoms:
Calendar entries disappear after a simple screen refresh.
"Account Info Needed" keeps repeating.
When updating the Account, this error appears: "There was an unexpected error and the operation was canceled"
The only way to temporarily fix this is to delete my account on the device and recreate it. I've done that three times just today. The data comes back fine then disappears again.
Any tricks on making the account stay put?

It's been 24 hours with neither of these 2 symptoms occuring. What did I do? I deselected the "Turn on wireless connections to my computer".
Wth the bluetooth still enabled, my PC connects to the device as a storage device (which is all I really need for data/file transfer anyway). The Calendar entries are perfect - back and forth.
I'd be interested in hearing from others if this helped them.
(NOTE: the DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION BSOD still happens when the device is connected to the PC for any time longer than the backup or sync. That's an altogether different issue.)

Contacts and Calendar have disappeared from iPhone

All my contacts and calendar entries have totally disappeared from my iPhone on 20.5.09. My free trial of MobileMe was due to end on 20.5.09, so on 17.5.09 I cancelled my subscription (didn't really use it). The only backup of my contacts/calendar was on MobileMe. Is it just a coincidence that my information has disappeared on the same day as my subscription ran out?!

When turning on over the air syncing for Contacts and Calendars with a MobileMe account on an iPhone, all contacts and calendar events on the iPhone are erased first and replaced with your MM online address book and calendar events. After the initial transfer from your MM online address book and calendar(s), contact info and calendar events are kept synchronized between the two.
Your MM online address book and calendar events are designed to be kept synchronized with the supported application or applications on your computer.
When a MM account is cancelled, the data on the MM "cloud" is no longer available.

Contacts and calendar items disappear when exchange server is off

Hi All
I've been having this problem for a few weeks now and it's most frustrating. My iphone is setup to sync over the air to our corporate exchange server. It seems that when the server is down for repair/patching ALL my contacts and calendar items disappear from my iphone. This doesn't seem to happen if the phone is out of signal?
I know that I can sync directly with Outlook, however this would then mean that the phone is only updated when synced with my laptop at work. If I sync both over the air AND with Outlook, I get duplicates of everything in my calendar.
I'm not restoring my iphone to factory defaults to get rid of the duplicates and go back to over the air sync only.
Does anyone have any ideas on how I can get calendar and contacts to work "offline" when the exchange server is down?
Main PC is running Windows 7 and exchange is 2007. This problem is only recent, I think in the last month of two. Nothing has changed other than the last few firmware updates from Apple.

hi, cheers for the info. That would make sense, however how come when I'm out of signal and not connected to wifi, the data doesn't also disappear as that too would render the server "unavailable".
Is there a way to make the iphone keep a copy of the data much the same as "offline mode" in Outlook where you can still browse your email, calendar and contacts when the server is offline, and it picks up where it left off when the server is available again?
I appreciate this may not be a "problem" as such, but is frustrating as all my contacts and calendar live in Outlook and I can't function without them

Mail for Exchange, new task and calendar entries

Dear All,
I am having a wonderful time with a brand new E71 plus the latest version of Mail for Exchange (2.09.158 as per the info screen on the device). It syncs fine with a Exchange 2003 server in that contacts, tasks and calendar entries (it is not supposed to sync mail as well) are properly downloaded and changes made on the phone are replicated back to the server on the next sync. The fun starts when I create a new task or calendar entry on the phone: Those are not created on the server at all. Another problem is deleting a task on the phone that was created on the server. For some reason the deletion does not show up on the server as well and the task remains there until deleted via Outlook. Has anybody seen this kind of behaviour? I cannot debug anything on the server, since it is a hosted solution from an ISP. Neither can I sniff the network traffic, since that is SSL encrypted. Any tips and/or work arounds are greatly appreciated.
Best regards,

bump.
still the same even with the latest version.

I have 2 iPads with the same log in and password details. How do I make them independent of each other so that contacts and calendar entries are not duplicated

I have 2 iPads. When gifting one to my wife I did not change the log in and security details. Consequently any contacts and calendar entries are duplicated. How do I make the iPads independent so that the foregoing duplications are eliminated?
Thank you

The logins on the iPads, for example the iTunes store can be the same if you share an iTunes account, this will not effect the Contacts/Calendars unless you are using iCloud to sync Calendar/Contacts in which case just setup a new iCloud account for your Wife and change the iCloud settings on her iPad to this new account.
Unfortunately the contacts if syncing with your computer will be the same as it can only sync from the given contacts on your computer.
You can use a different login to the computer for your wife and she can then have her own contacts.
If your Contacts application on your compuer has Categories/Grouping you can tell iTunes to sync certain Categories/Groups to each iPad, that way splitting up the contacts on your computer for each iPad.
The same is true for the Calendar if you only have the one calendar it will sync it for both of you, the iPad settings in iTunes has the option to pick a Calendar if you have more then one.
One option is to use an online calendar such as Google Calendar and sync to and from it with your iPad that way the Calendars would be individual.

Help: Calendar entries disappear on Pearl 8100

I have a BB Pearl 8100 and have the problem that calendar entries disappear from the device. Entries as recent as those from the previous week all of a sudden disappear. I have re-synchronized several times (I use Outlook 2003 for calendar and contacts), and the entries stay in the device for a few days but after a week or so, all past appointments, except the recurring ones, just disappear. I don't have a problem with contacts, and I don't synchronize emails, so the issue is only Calendar.
I have the Options set in my device to keep appointment forever, so that does not seem to be the problem.
Does anyone know how to fix this?
Thanks a lot in advance.

Metroberry:
I don't have ringtones, music or videos in the BB. However, I have 30,600 bytes "File Free", out of 64mm "File Total". I guess this would qualify as very little memory left. Doesn't make sense though, since the only things I have in the device are my contacts and the calendar. What could be using up the memory?
Thanks for your help.

Calendar entries disappeared!

Hi!
Got my Z3 Compact a month ago.
Today all my calendar entries disappeared, there are just a couple left. Seems like the only ones left are the first ones I entered a month ago. What has happened? I'm lost without my calender entries! Help!

Do you know which calendar these entries were stored in? For example Google calendar, device calendar, ActiveSync calendar? If you have removed an account, all entries that belongs to that account will be removed as well.

All Contacts and Calendars entries have disappreared

All my Contacts and Calendar entries have suddenly disappeared from my iPhone4S, and the phone won't allow me to make any new Calendar entries. I've tried restoring from a back-up on my PC, but I get a messsage on iTunes on the PC saying no back-up is stored there, although I'm looking at the iTunes screen telling me when the last back-up was made.
Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
TIA

I have the exact same problem and it drives me mad - thanks for letting me know if you find a solution. Here is what I will try: export all my contacts from where they are in the pst file in outlook then "try" to reimport them in the ost file (exchange). I noticed indeed that if I create a contact in the ost file, it does get pushed over to itunes.
But there seems to be no way of telling itunes which outlook data file to use in priority, and if you select it as default in outlook you wipe out the content of your mail file on the exchange server. Not great.

E71 All Calendar entries disappeared

I went to add a calendar entry and found the calendar completely empty! I did notice some screen flickering earlier in the day, but had not changed any thing since last using the calendar.
Any reported problems with the calendar.
Thanks

I have a problem with my E71 in which my calendar entries disappear automatically after some days. I do not know how they disappear. When I create it, it appears in the claendar and gives me alarm reminders as expected. But my past meeting entries disappears without my knowledge.
Is there any setting which comes into play automatically which deletes these calendar entries ?
Please advise.
Thanks a ton.

Difference between account assignment model and recurring entry?

difference between account assignment model and recurring entry?

Hi
Account Assignment model is a template used for document creation in which default values are provided for the posting of a business transaction.
An account assignment model may contain any number of G/L line items, and can be changed or enhanced as needed. Unlike sample documents, account assignment models may contain incomplete G/L line items.
A recurring entry is when an expense is distributed thru out the year or for selected period. You create the entry once and execute it during period end closing. Posting happens to related accounts only on execution in the period concerned.
Thanks

Palm Desktop 4.1.4 Calendar entries disappear

Hi
I am using Palm Desktop 4.1.4 not connected to any thing. Win XP 32 bit SP3.
Recent calendar entries (since Mid Feb 2012) disappeared. I reentered them and checked a few times and they were still there. Then several hours later they disappeared again. Only recently entered calendar entries disappeared.
• There is only one user.
• I am showing all private records.
• The location of my Palm data folder has not changed
• This has never happened before.
I have 1400 contacts and dates going back to 2000 so I am well under the maximum records.
Thanks for any help

Hi cygnusX1
Thanks a lot for responding.
I don't believe the Palm Desktop stayed open when the data was found missing. I believe I had closed it and then found the data missng upon reopening it...but I'm not perfectly sure about that.
Since I posted, I testing it again by entering 3 dates in Feb and March 2012. I check a few hours later and the dates were still there, even after closing the PD and reopening it a few times...then the next day, the newly entered dates were gone. All other existing data that was entered in the Calendar, Contacts etc seems to be uneffected.
==================================
I just made the following observation:
==================================
It seems as though only data that was entered from Jan 1st 2012 and onward, is disappearing. Contact data entered from Jan 1st 2012 and onward, has also disappeared. In the contact data, I made a change to an existing record in Jan 2012 and the original record is there but the change I made has disappeeared.
There is existing data in the year 2012 calendar that was entered before Dec 31 and that data is still there as well as all previous data.
As far as your suggestion to export data, uninstall and reinstall, I will try that as soon as this post runs it course. I want to wait to see if any solution appear in the short term. Then, if the reinstall does not help, I guess I will have to consider a different Calendar and Datebook app.
I would like to know what is going on. This seems very strange. It's never happened before. Been using this app for many years.
Thanks again for any help

I did a software upgrade to IOS6 and my Iphone4S is now unable to update. Do I lose all my contacts and calendar entries when I restore?

You should be syncing all your contacts and calendars with your computer, either via iCloud or iTunes, so it is easy to re-sync them back to the phone after you restore.

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:

Note: BlackBerry Desktop software 2.4 is still supported for use with Mac OS X v10.6, 10.7, and 10.8.

I just lost my contacts and calendar entries through icloud, how do i get them back?

I read that the space being used up on my iphone can be from having iCloud backups on. So I turned them all off and thought when it said to delete the contacts and calendar eltries it mean the back up being stored on the phone, not the actual contacts and calendar entries. Can anyone help me to restore these items?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
It sounds like you are turning off syncing (settings > iCloud) rather than back ups.
Try turning them on again.
