All-day events sometimes don't sync from iPod to Mac using Exchange Server

I have an iPod touch (1st or 2nd generation, not sure) which syncs with my MacBook via ActiveExchange and the company's exchange server.
I have been noticing that sometimes when I create all-day events on the iPod they don't show up in my Entourage-calendar. Even if I change their dates on the iPod or change them from all-day to a specific time. Nothing.
I already switched off time zone support or what's it called although all time zones are on the same city.
Any thoughts are highly appreciated. (And no, to be honest I don't think that it's a exchange-server-problem.)

HT1296 Sync from iPod to Mac

I have all my calendars' information on my iPod and got a new computer. When I sync the iPod with iTunes, all my information is wiped. Is there a way to transfer the calendars from the iPod to the Macbook and not all the way around?

Hi Rudegar, thanks for the answer but I'm not sure how to do that. I have all the files backed up, but I don't know if the calendars are or where to find the back up.

Can playlists sync from ipod to mac?

the Mac harddisk crashed; I was able to restore Tunes by home share with a different Mac. However, Playlists were not on the different Mac. They are on an iPod -- if I sync the iPod with the restored Mac will the Playlists sync? It seems like they should, but.....?
Thanks for your input

its going to completely wipe your ipod if you try to sync the music

Contacts don't sync on iPod Touch (not using mobileme)

They used to sync, now they don't. Since 10.5.5? So the contacts are on the ipod, but changes are not synced. I do not have mobileme. Just syncing via usb.

Just to update... The issue was one corrupt addressbook card. After exporting all contacts, I imported half, then half again, etc. until the sync stopped working. I found one troublesome card, which I retyped. Now all is well.

Iphoto lost all photos - can i copy photos back from ipod to mac?

Had an issue with corrupt files in my iphoto library. Did a bunch of stuff and upgraded etc....now iphoto is running fine...
lost a bunch of photos.. basically all corrupt and/or missing
I do have them all on my 5th gen ipod... is there anyway i can transfer photos FROM my ipod TO my mac????

Yes and no. If you had the iPod set to copy the photos as originals, then you will get the "original" photographs back (turn on disk mode and you will find them easily enough). If however, you didn't have this preference set then you will not have the "proper" photographs on there. You will just have the small scaled images which you can see on the iPod. However, if you enable disk mode you should balso be able to get these if you so wish. After all, the thumbnails will be better than nothing if the photos were important.

Help - iCal All Day Events Not Syncing on Exchange 2007

When I enter an all day event in iCal it does not sync to my Touch Pro 2 through Exchange 2007. I see the event in OWA and also in Entourage through Sync Services but it simply does not come onto the TP2. All day events entered in Entourage or OWA DO show up in the TP2. Strange but very frustrating because I like to enter my events using Launchbar which works with iCal only.
I don't think I had this problem with 10.5
Greatly Appreciate Help.

I've noticed a similar problem. Previously, "all day" events listed correctly in both iCal (on my Mac) and in the calendar on my iPhone. Now, all day events on the iPhone cover the entire day, set to a time of 12 am to 12 pm.
I'm not sure if this is related to 10.6.4 or my recent update to iOS4 on the phone.

All Day events from Exchange are a day out

There are a few posts similar out there but I haven't been able to find a solution for this one.
If I create an "all day" appointment in Outlook and sync it to my iPhone via exchange it shows up a day early on the iPhone, but fine in Outlook. Now here's the interesting bit, if I modify the appointment on the iPhone and sync it back, its fine, the dates match.
I've checked the time zones and disabled time zone support, its still an issue (plus these items are a whole day out not just 13 hours so I don't think that is the issue). It sounds similar to the birthday issue here http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2456 but iTunes isn't involved so can't really do that fix.
Does anyone have any other suggestions? I'm getting a little sick of turning up to meetings a day early.
Thanks,
Cameron

I was wrong... defining a time zone in Outlook doesn't seem to change it after all.
It's a little odd because if I create an all day event and load the time zone options they are greyed out, they only become active if its not an all day event. If I save the event with the time zones showing (but greyed out) when I reopen the event the time zones are gone. So maybe nothing is actually being saved???
Its still just a theory but I suspect that saving of time zone information might be part of the problem, now I just have to find a way to prove it.

All day events don't appear on my iPhone Calendar-

Or did I make something wrong if my "All day" events don't appear on my iPhone Calendar?

ICal all-day event default time error

Searched this discussion and others but no help there. When I create an all-day event in iCal (time zone support on, set to America/Los Angeles)it reads as Casablanca, Monrovia when synced to Entourage. Due to corp policy I'm sync'ing with Outlook Exchange server via Entourage, sync'ing Entourage with iCal, iCal with MobileMe and MobileMe with iPhone. All works just fine in regular events ... only all-day events have this incorrect default time zone.
Any ideas?

I have the same problem. All day events created in iCal sync to the Exchange server as Casablanca time zone, which I believe is the same as GMT. Events created in Entourage sync without error. Most events created on a PC with Outlook sync fine all the way through to iCal. This seemed to start about the same time as your post, ie sometime around November. Prior to some time in the fall, all day events sync'd properly. I've posted this topic to the mactopia entourage forum but I haven't gotten a response there yet.
I'm using iCal 3.0.6, Entourage 2004 11.4.0, Mac OS 10.5.6. Any thoughts anyone? Apple?

Converted Outlook to iCal - All day events messed up

I converted Outlook calendar via O2M and imported it into iCal on iMac. The all-day events are blocking up time from 12:00am to 12:00am rather than appearing in the all-day box at the top of the day. When I click on the event, the "Make All-Day Event" selection is grayed out and I cannot select it. The events are blocking up and crowding my calendar and I can't see anything. I don't want to delete and re-enter all events. Just bought the iMac a week ago. What's the fix?

Found this on another topic and it fixed my problem:
Re: AppleScript to make All-Day Events?
Feb 2, 2006 1:28 AM (in response to Roger Barre)
Hi Roger, This is fairly straighforward in Applescript. You could try something like the script below. Depending on the number of events in the calendar it's possible this could take time. The script should let you know when it's done. Just in case you don't like the result. Backup, just in case. In iCal go to File>Back up Database... and save your calendars. --Copy blue text into Script Editor (Applications > Applescript > Script Editor) , press Run and follow prompts. If you are happy with the results you could save it as an Application.
tell application "iCal"
-- Select calendar
set myCal to first calendar whose title is (item 1 of (choose from list (title of (every calendar) as list) with prompt "Choose calendar"))
-- Loop through events
repeat with myEvt in events of myCal
-- Get start & end times of event
set {startTime, endTime} to {start date of myEvt, end date of myEvt}
-- Check start and end hours & mins
set hoursAndMins to {hours of startTime, minutes of startTime, hours of endTime, minutes of endTime}
-- See if start and end time are midnight, if so set to all day.
if hoursAndMins is equal to {0, 0, 0, 0} then set allday event of myEvt to true
end repeat
display dialog "Done all day events"
end tell Best wishes John

Nokia and iCal: all-day events

Whenever I use iSync to sync iCal and my E65, all-day events are sent to the phone as "meetings" that last from from 12:00am to 11:59pm instead of being synced as "notes". This is very annoying! Does anyone know of a solution? Here are my software versions:
Mac OS X: 10.4.10
iSync: 2.4
iCal: 2.0.5

I researched and researched, and it looks like Mac users are out of luck on this issue. Everything seemed to go wrong when Nokia changed to SyncML to sync their calendar and address book databases. Seems like Nokia & Apple would have resolved this issue by now. From what I've heard, it's been a problem for a long time.
So, I'm giving up for now until someone has an answer. I'm only going to put calendar events on my phone and just use that as my main calendar.
If anyone's interested, there is new software for S60 called "Handy Calendar" by Epocware. It is an amazing replacement for the built-in Nokia calendar app. The one big improvement is that you can make all-day events repeat, unlike on Nokia's calendar. It uses the same database as Nokia's calendar, so you can switch between the 2 with no problems. It also has a nice, clean, good-looking interface. Unfortunately it uses Nokia's SyncML as well, so it doesn't help with iCal.
Oh, well... waiting for a fix...
