Another calendar sync question.

Hi, I have Mac, Macbook, Ipad and Iphone. They all share photos via icloud but I just cant find a way to make them share calendars in any way. I've read various threads but am getting nowhere. If anyone could help (in easy steps!) I'd be very grateful,
hanks,
Ian.

You should learn to activate the Calendar's option of iCloud in Mac OSX and in iOS, look at :

  • IPhone calendar sync question

    What do I change so that when I sync, events entered on my iphone 3GS calendar sync to my computer calendar? Events entered on my computer sync to my phone, but NOT vice versa. I have "sync all calendars" checked off in itunes info screen.

    Doing both does nothing but duplicate the calendars and calendar events on your iPhone. When doing both, each is synced and stored separately and differently on the iPhone. The calendars and calendar events synced direct with iCal via the iTunes sync process are stored separately and not synced over the air with your iPhone and vice-versa.

  • Calendar Sync Question

    Nice forum,
    I have a question re calendard. in my 9000 I have a work account using BES and one more e-mail work acount using BIS (since they are pop3). When I shcedule an appointment from outlook and choose to send the invitation the pop3 account the appointment is synced with my BB fine (BB calendar shows it in blue).
    But in case I use my 9000 to to add an appointment (BB calendar shows it in orange) using the pop3 account (the default is desktop BES account) then this appointment is not synced with outlook.
    Does anyone know if there is a way to sync these appointments with the outlook calendar(s), too?
    Thanks!

    Hi Donald,
    It's be a pleasure to help you on this!
    As you said, you events created on your computers will show up automatically on my iPod Touch's calendar (if activated). But also, if you make any change or add a new event directly on your iPod, they will definitely appear also on your computer, the next time you access it!
    If this is not the case can someone explain to me how I get the events I have added on the iPod Touch to show up on the calendars at the other locations?
    Have you ever read [this article|http://www.apple.com/mobileme/setup> from Apple. It should be helpful, to teach you how to setup your devices!
    Hope this helps!

  • IPhone Outlook Calendar syncing question

    Help!
    I've had my iPhone since December, and at one point, was able to sync my Outlook calendar to it perfectly.
    Now, I'm still able to sync the actual appointments. But any "notes" or details that I've added to those appointments (in the bottom section of the screen) don't transfer over to the iPhone.
    Am I doing something wrong? Thanks for any help you can offer!

    *iPhone calendar views are a joke!*
    My 90's Palm Vx had far more usable views via Pimlico Software. The gray scale display with poor resolution was able to show one or even two weeks with appointment texts.
    What does iPhone have? List view is the best there is. One sees all appointments with only just scrolling. Day view is terrible. The whole day should be visible without scrolling for it to be at least somewhat efficient. Now one has to first select a day with arrows and after that scroll thru the day and after that select another day and scroll again. No way. Month view is very poorly designed! The grid takes way too much space and who decided to put the appointment list in the bottom of the screen when one's index finger blocks it if sliding thru days in the grid!!! Oh man!!! Unlock the landscape view and please make the grid a little bit smaller and please place the appointment list on the left or at least on the right side. And make its font way smaller! No point in seeing two appoinments without scrolling.
    iPhone's wonderful screen would be able to show one or two weeks with written appointments in a list like manner especially landscape. I mean seven columns titled Mo-Su and all appointments listed in that day's column.
    Hopefully SDK will let someone else do it if Apple won't.
    And we have to get to copy appointments and paste them to other days also. I am spending 30 min writing the same info one at a time to our monthly plan. Everyone else is already having a cup of coffee.

  • Another Library Sync Question

    Hi. A slight variation on an often asked question - but one I haven't found asked elsewhere on the forums:
    So, my old computer died and I don't have a backup of my iPhone contents. I'm trying to sync to a new instance of iTunes on my new laptop.
    I have my mp3 collection on an exteral hard drive, so I can just rebuild the collection on my iPhone if it comes to it.
    The thing is, my mp3 collection is up in the 50,000's and I want to transfer the same 10,000ish to my iPhone out of it ... if possible without starting from scratch.
    So the question is, is it possible to get itunes to recognize that the songs on the iPhone are actually in it's library - but only a subset of the library needs syncing?
    Thanks!

    I didn't find any other free ones, and Tuneranger is discontinued and doesn't work right anyway.  I resorted to using itunes on the mac mini and the option to show files not in it's library to do a manual sync.  I did not try rsync on the w8 machine to push files over because I was worried it would mess up the database files.

  • Calendar syncing question - iPhone & iPad

    I have an iPhone and an iPad...they both came with calendars that are adequate for my needs.  Why am I unable to sync them together???.

    Or sync them both to a Google calendar using a Gmail account. My iPad and iPhone calendars are synced this way.

  • Calendar sync question with iCloud.

    My wife and I have separate apple id's and would like our home calendars to sync across multiple devices.  Is this possible with iCloud?

    Your profile states that you are using OS X 10.5.6, whereas you need OS X 10.7.2 or better in able to run iCloud on your Mac. As a result your calendars and contacts will be unable to sync with your iCloud account. You will however be able to access your calendars and contacts through your web browser on your Mac at iCloud.com

    Will iCloud 4 sync the calendar from my iPhone 5 to the Calendar in Window Live Mail 2011?

    Hello goldfingere,
    If you want to use iCloud calendars on your PC, then you will need Outlook to have that content sync over. Check out the article below for the system requirements for iCloud.

    NO.
    To copy songs from an iPod to a computer, you need 3rd party software. Search this forum for a very informative post by Zevoneer on the topic.

  • Q10 questions, Auto Cc & iCloud Calendar Sync

    Hello everyone,
    I have 2 questions as below:

    my Q10 is under 10.1.0.4181

    1, the AutoCC was a service of your former BIS account, and there is no BIS account now. Instead, if you're using an IMAP email server, you should find the function to autoCC your emails there.
    On an IMAP email account, your sent emails should sync to your server anyway. Why do you need the AutoCC?

  • Calendar Sync/Outlook 2007 Issues

    Help!  I have a 8330 through Verizon and have major calendar sync issues that only seem to be getting worse. I'm using Outlook 2007 running Vista-Business. My Blackberry had been syncing fine for the first few months, but a week ago the calendar sync stopped working/crashing during the sync process (canceling the task). Address book, memo pad, and tasks still sync OK. Now the system does not even indicate the Calendar is trying to sync., it just bypasses that part of the sync process entirely even though I definitely have Calendar checked off in DTM. I have two email accounts associated with the Blackberry, hotmail, and my business email (through Gmail). I would like to be able to use two calendars but simply read them as one on Outlook and the Blackberry.  I want to ensure all mtg requests sent to either email address post to one calendar. Prevous to my sync issue, I have had issues where I accept an appt on my blackberry, but the message gets deleted from my Outlook, then unfortunately I can not sync it to my Outlook. I've tried many of the suggestions posted on previous threads with no luck, and would appreciated help from anyone who can walk me through this.
    One last issue I seem to have now is that when I send an email through Outlook it automatically posts the sent mesage on my Blackberry, even though I have Hide Sent messages selected in Email Options. Very Confused?????
    thanks

    Same problem here.  The blackberry calendar has two sets of calendars.  I can set the BB to show both, but only one syncs with Outlook. 
    Two questions:
    1) How do I sync both calendars with Outlook for a combined view on Outlook?
    2) Or, how do I convert calandar items on the BB from one email account to another?
    Any help appreciated

  • MobileMe sync question

    I've had my iPhone set up to sync contacts and calendar information via the dock sync. (In the "Info" tab, "Sync Address Book contacts" and "Sync iCal calendars" has been checked).
    However, I'd like to start using MobileMe to sync everything so I can take advantage of push. When I go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendar > MobileMe account and turn on "Contact" and "Calendars", I get a message saying "There are existing contacts synced with your Mac. Would you like to merge them with your MobileMe account?"
    I'm not sure what to do at this point. The problem is that I already have contacts and calendars synced from my Mac. I don't want to merge, do I? But if I leave them unmerged, will the changes I make on other devices be reflected on the iPhone?
    I'm confused.

    Ah, so which one of you is right?
    Here's another question: when setting up a new iPhone, should I choose "automatically sync contacts, calendars, bookmarks, notes, and email accounts" or leave it unchecked? If I check it, doesn't that mean it will sync all of those things via USB instead of via MobileMe? If I want to use MobileMe/push instead, shouldn't I leave that option unchecked and then add my MobileMe account in the Mail, Contacts, Calendars settings and then turn on Mail, Contacts, Calendar and Find My Phone?

  • Outlook 2003 + iPhone calendar sync problem solved

    Here is how I solved my sync problem. Seems a lot of people have the same problem here with Outlook sync suddenly not working after it worked fine for a long time.
    I've had Outlook 2003 calendar sync with my iPhone for a few month without any problem, but a few days ago the sync suddenly stopped without any error message. iTunes Diagnostic found no problem and I followed all the steps that Apple outlines to fix the problem but nothing worked (TS2776).
    As Apple asked to, I created a new user account on my Windows machine and setup a few test calendar entries to sync with my iPhone. That all worked fine.
    So I did what Apple doesn't tell you, and I copied my original Outlook Data file (.PST) over to my new user account and tried to sync that one. Now this didn't work. So I knew the problem lies somewhere in my PST file.
    I have then tried to create a new one from scratch in my original Windows account, and copy all the data over. Again, it didn't work. So I emptied the file again, and copied all my calendar entries over to the new PST file in batches (first 10, then another 10, etc).
    What I found at the end is that one single calendar entry I created a few days ago caused my sync to stop working. Once I removed this entry, everything worked fine again. Don't ask me what was wrong with it (I made a backup just in case Apple wants to see it), but now everything works again.
    If you want to save some time to find which one it is, you may start deleting entries that you created just recently before it stopped working.
    Hope that helps.

    Hi im having the same problem. I use outlook 2003 on windows xp and until recently my sync (using usb) was working fine. Now it would seem that calendar items are no longer syncing. can you give any further details of the calendar entry which was causing your problem? im wondering if it was added on a certain date perhaps.
    I am running the inbox repair tool to see if my pst file has any problems but would appreciate any other help in the mean time.
    Cheers

  • Iphone calendar sync to exchange is one-way, mail & contacts working

    i had a problem where i was getting nothing from the exchange server ( SBS2003 ) in my calendar... but if i added something to my iphone 3g, it would show up in outlook. my iphone 2.2.1, ipod touch 2.2.1, and dev iphone using 3.0b5 all were the same.
    Mail and Contacts worked fine, but not the calendars... i could create a new calendar in outlook and the phone would show that i had another calendar, but no actual items were being sync'd.
    When i tried to create a new exchange account to test, I was unable to sync, and would get the error: The error is "Unexpected Exchange mailbox Server error: Server: [] User: [] HTTP status code: [409]. Verify that the Exchange mailbox Server is working correctly." in the Event Log
    I hate when I spend days looking online for solutions and never find out what works because people don't post their successes, so I thought I should post this, because it seemed to fix my problem.
    BUT - i should say that when it came down to the registry modification, the entry was already there, and set to /exchange-oma, but i changed it to my newly created virtual directory, and poof, my problem was solved. I found what you see below here: http://sbs.seandaniel.com/2006/02/sync-errors-from-mobile-devices-in.html
    ...hope this helps someone... not sure what caused it other than my continually formatting and re-syncing my dev phone.
    1. Start Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager.
    2. Locate the Exchange virtual directory. The default location is the following: Web Sites\Default Web Site\Exchange
    3. Right-click the Exchange virtual directory, click All Tasks, and then click Save Configuration to a File.
    4. In the File name box, type a name. For example, type ExchangeVDir. Click OK.
    5. Right-click the root of this Web site. Typically, this is Default Web Site.
    6. Click New, and then click Virtual Directory (from file).
    7. In the Import Configuration dialog box, click Browse, locate the file that you
    8. Created in step 4, click Open, and then click Read File.
    9. Under Select a configuration to import , click Exchange, and then click OK.
    10. A dialog box will appear that states that the "virtual directory already exists."
    11. In the Alias box, type a name for the new virtual directory that you want Exchange ActiveSync and Outlook Mobile Access to use. For example, type ExchDAV.
    [N.B. In my case I already had an ExchDAV, so I created it as ExchDAV2]
    12. Click OK.
    13. Right-click the new virtual directory. In this example, click ExchDAV. Click Properties. Click the Directory Security tab. Under Authentication and access control, click Edit. Make sure that only the following authentication methods are enabled, and then click OK:
    a. Integrated Windows authentication
    b. Basic authentication
    14. Under IP address and domain name restrictions, click Edit. Click Denied access, click Add, click Single computer, type the IP address of the server that you are configuring, and then click OK.
    15. Under Secure communications, click Edit. Make sure that Require secure channel (SSL) is not enabled, and then click OK.
    16. Click OK, and then close the IIS Manager.
    17. Click Start, click Run, type regedit, and then click OK.
    18. Locate the following registry subkey: HKEYLOCALMACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\MasSync\Parameters
    19. Right-click Parameters, click to New, and then click String Value.
    20. Type ExchangeVDir, and then press ENTER. Right-click ExchangeVDir, and then click Modify.
    NoteExchangeVDir is case-sensitive. If you do not type ExchangeVDir exactly as it appears in this article, ActiveSync does not find the key when it locates the ExchDAV folder.
    21. In the Value data box, type the name of the new virtual directory that you created preceded by a forward slash (/). For example, type /ExchDAV.
    [OR in may case, it was already set to /ExchDAV so mine needed to be renamed to /ExchDAV2]
    22. Click OK.
    23. Quit Registry Editor.
    24. Restart the IIS Admin service. To do this, follow these steps:
    a. Click Start, click Run, type services.msc, and then click OK.
    b. In the list of services, right-click IIS Admin service, and then click Restart

    This isn't an issue.
    If you pay attention to the former steps, you'll notice that only the virtual folder being created has SSL disabled and in the meantime, communications are allowed only from the server himself.
    So the IT can be confident in following those steps.
    +Unfortunately, so far, those instructions didn't help me.+
    In fact it finally worked.
    I just needed to delete and recreate the relationship between the device and the Exchange server.

  • Exchange Calendar sync loops, drains, and fails

    It seems I have got the same problem as described here. The symptom is that the Exchange sync never seems to finish. The phone runs hot and probably uses a lot of network traffic. The problem is that the disable/enable of Calendar sync trick fails on my iPhone. It tries for a long time and then it times out. I can't even remove the accounts completely, that fails in the same way.
    It's an iPhone 5S running iOS 7.0.5. I'm syncing three calendars. Two Exchange accounts from different servers and one Gmail.
    This problem happened to me once before and then I ended up doing a Factory Reset. I'd rather not do that again.

    I would love to find a solution to this! It could be to the root of the problem, how to force calendar sync off, how to force removal of email accounts, or to something that I've missed.
    PS. I've asked the same question here. DS.

    Not sure if this will help, I found it solved a slightly different problem.  the following is a re-post from a different thread.
    I've had similar issues - although my email and contacts were syncing with Exchange without issue, in iOS7 I developed a one-way problem with calendar sync.
    Appointments created on my iPhone were syncing fine to my Exchange server, and were then visible in outlook on my PC.
    However items created in Outlook were not syncing to the iPhone.
    I'm running iOS 7.1 on an iPhone 5; plus Outlook 10 on a Windows 8.1 machine connecting to Exchange on Small Business Server 2003.
    I found a solution here.
    On the PC, go to your calendar and right-click the Calendar folder.  On the Permissions tab, change the default Permissions from "none" to "Reviewer".  Apply changes.
    Then on the iPhone, remove and add back the calendar in Settings.
    I have 3 separate calendars on my exchange server and had to do this for each one.  When I only did it for one calendar at first, this was the only one which appeared on the iPhone.  So, it seems to me that this was definitely the culprit.
    Interesting that this problem only reared it's head since the iOS7 update.  Calendar was working just fine for me in iOS6.
