BAD: Outlook Calendar items are removed as they occur!

I canceled my ME.COM account because it didn't work at all. The syncing affected my calendar and it looks like it tweaked something in iTunes.
When I sync - it looks like iTunes decides to remove events from my calendar in Outlook 2007. This is *TOTALLY UNNACEPTIBLE*! If I sync several times a day (which I do) - my calendar entries that have passed dissapear!
THIS WILL NEVER WORK for business. I am very dissapointed in the way iTunes works - I can't remove apps etc.
This will drive me back to a blackberry if I am not able to get support from Apple. I hope they are listening.
I need to sync bi-directionally and trust that the middleware won't destroy my data! This is not the case - I can no longer trust that ANYTHING coming from the iPhone will not destroy my Outlook calendar!
Perhaps this is how Apple wants to ensure I switch to a Mac! Sorry for the rant - but I have tried unsuccessfully to get ANY support...

Haven't seen this exact issue, but as part of a "best practices" document we prepared for users, we've told them NOT to update or accept appointments from any mobile device ( including IOS devices), just to do it from the Outlook client. Microsoft has also published a couple of best practices documents which you should look at if you haven't. Also, recurring meetings are a huge issue; for example, the MS best practices is only to create recurring appointments that won't change much, if at all...if there is a recurring meeting that changes frequently, it's better to schedule multiple individual instances of it than one recurring appointment.

Missing Outlook calendar items

Hi,
Just got the new BB Curve for my birthday and am still getting used to it (I was an old Palm Treo 650 user). Yesterday, everything synced fine on my BB and Outlook, however today all my Outlook calendar items are missing. They are on my BB, but not my work Outlook.
How can I get them back to my Outlook calendar without re-keying? Thanks in advance for any help.

Hi Brian,
We use MS Outlook Exchange and I was told by a coworker to do the following. Look at the meeting requests with attachments by size of the file. Remove any attachments from the meeting requests that caused the file size to be greater than 1MB and save them offline. This is even for meetings that are in the past. Once they are all less than 1MB, power your iPhone or iPad down completely. Turn it back on an viola they should be all back. It worked for me.
Good Luck

After mountain lion all calendar items are duplicated in outlook

After mountain lion all calendar items are duplicated in outlook. Any idea why this might be.

I'd keep them in folders - in your user account section, then just link to the folder with an alias and not keep the actual files and folders out on or in Desktop Finder area.
There is method to madness underneath, most things can be found from top level

Outlook calendar items not visible in Day view - but in Today view!

Hi All,
I'm synchronising calendar items from the iPhone to Outlook 2003 (setup with Exchange 2003). After synchronisation the calendar items they first show in the Day/Week/Month view. But after changing the view all items synchronised from th e iPhone disappear! Strangly, in the Outlook Today view the calendar items are there and visible ok.
Can anybody help please. Thanks!

Having the same problem -- AppleBruce's fix didn't work for me -- and as I don't want to cross-post, the Topic "*iPhone will not sync to Outlook 2007 after 2.0 & iTunes 7.7 update*!" is also working on this issue. (My post from that Topic is below)
+Guys - for those of you that can't sync iPhone to Outlook 2003/07, check this out first:+
+Instead of using the Outlook view "Day/Week/Month," switch to the view, "Active Appointments." I originally thought my sync wasn't working, but all my appointments show in that view ... just not in the view I need and use the most -- the "Day/Week/Month" view!+
+I've followed AppleBruce's suggestion to the "T" twice, and it doesn't solve this issue (but thanks for that post ... it did clean up my calendar a bit!)+
+How can the iPhone sync all appointments to Outlook, but they only show up in the "Active Appointments" view??? Has anyone else noticed this?+

I installed ios6 on my iPad3 and now all my calendar items are gone, how do I get them back? I tried deleting my account and adding it back I. Still no calendar

I Installed ios6 on my iPad and now all my calendar items are gone. I tried deleting my email account and adding it back in but still no calendar items

I had the same problem on my iphone 4s and before I had realized it my phone synced up with my computer and deleted all the appointments in my outlook calendar as well. I run microsoft exchange and unfortunately my ISP doesnt backup for me so I am left reconstructing my calendar from scratch. Apple support said they had no idea why this had happened and couldnt help me. Not very reassuring.

Can´t create an afternoon Outlook calendar item on iCloud

I am using iCloud to synchronize items with my Mac. Outlook is configured with three calendars, its native calendar tied to my Outlook email address, a second calendar that I do not use tied to a generic email address that I do use, and the iCloud calendar. I am on temporary assignment in Mexico and the standard language setup is the following: OS menus are in English. Outlook menus are in English. Email text editing language is Spanish. Calendar items are in Spanish. The date format is Spanish using a.m. and p.m.
If I try to create an item in my iCloud calendar from Outlook, it will not allow me to specify a time in the afternoon. Any attempt to do so still results in getting an appointment for the same time in the morning (or, rather, very early morning). For example, I create an appointment for 2 p.m. It ends up being for 2 a.m. If I change it to 3 p.m., it ends up being changed to 3 a.m.
The workaround is to set up the item in the Outlook calendar for either of the email addresses, then dragging it into the iCloud calendar. Alternatively, the incorrect item in the iCloud calendar can be dragged into the Outlook calendar, adjusted to p.m., and then dragged back into iCloud.
Naturally, this does not happen on the Mac.
Is anyone aware of a fix for this?
The Mac is a MacBook Pro running Mavericks, but this problem really happens independently from the Mac. The version of Windows is Windows 7 Enterprise, 6.1.7601 (SP1). I am using Outlook 2013. iCloud control panel is 3.1.

Taken from the main screen of the iCloud.com website:
"To use iCloud, first set it up with your Apple ID on a device with iOS 5 or a Mac with OS X Lion."
Did you follow this advice?

Unable to cancel - open purchase order where all items are removed

Hi all,
When We try to cancel/close open purchase order where all items are removed from item master ?
It showing error message,
"No matching records found 'Items' (OITM) "
Purcahse order was created on may-2007.
As purchase order showing in open item list.
Any solution for this problem ?
Jeyakanthan

SAP does allow items to be removed from the item master with open documents, but only if the documents have not created journals.
It does create headaches though, and this situation is one of them.
If there are not many items, I suggest you recreate the items, close the PO and just cancel the items rather than remove them.
The other workaround is to change the items on the PO to something different that is in the item master, then close it.

My calendar items are not syncing via iCloud.

My calendar items are no longer syncing from my iPhone to my iMac via iCloud. In Settings - iCloud, my iPhone says that Calendars are syncing. iTunes on my iMac says the same thing. On my iMac, iCloud settings won't let me check Calendars, though. My iPad and iPhone are syncing just fine.

but I've restarted my iPhone just the other day (for a different reason) and it didn't affect the iCloud calendar... don't know why it did today,
Because "resetting" like I suggested is not the same as "restarting".
You wouldn't know how to get iCal to update on a iMac that doesn't have Lion installed, would you?
Unfortunately, you need a Mac running Lion v10.7.2
You're welcome

On the iPad tap Settings > iCloud
Toggle Documents & Data off then back on then restart your iPad.
Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button down until the red slider appears. Slide your finger across the slider to turn off iPhone. To turn iPhone back on, press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
On the iMac open System Preferences > iCloud
Deselect the box next to Documents & Data then reselect it then restart your iMac.

Calendar not updating on Iphone when items are removed from Outlook calendar.

Recently a couple of my board members purchased IPhones and IPads. And I have set them up the best I can. If they create a calendar entry on the IPhone or IPad it will show up in Outlook right away. However if they or one of their admins log onto their Outlook calendars and remove a schedule meeting the entry will not delete off the IPhone or IPads. I know there is a 15 minute sync on the devices but I have tested them after hours and days and the entries are still on the calendars on the mobile devices. This creates serious issues when people show up to meetings and destinations that have been cancled days in advanced. If anyone knows anything about how to fix this please let me know.

Do they log directly into the account or come in with proxy/delegate access?

Re:Calendar Items are DELETED on calendar yet hours later they'll reappear

IOS 7 on iphone 5. Repeating items are deleted several hours or sometimes days prior to their notification. Notwithstanding the deletion, the deleted item will still announce/pop up at the previously deleted time and our date. Whats with that? Embarassing when they activate at a meeting!!

Hello everyone,
I seem to found a solution! I was having this same issue yesterday... events appearing, then vanishing just as quickly. I suspected it is a sync issue with an event on the exchange server. This is what work for me:
- Exported my calendar from Entourage/Outlook (or make sure you have a recent backup).
- Deleted all events (so there is now no events on the exchange server).
- Double check there are no stray events remaining on the server.
- Open calender on iPhone so it looks to the server.
(All events should now be purged)
- Now import your backup/exported calendar back into Entourage/Outlook
- Make sure all events now appear on the server again.
- In iPhone calendar settings turn Exchange off then on again. (I also restarted iPhone, home button and power button.)
- Finally open iPhone calendar so fetches Exchange events (this will take a while as it's starting afresh).
Everything is behaving itself now. As I said above I suspect it was getting confused with an old or stray event on the Exchange server that wasn't visible in my Entourage.
Good luck! Do let me know if it works for you all. Dan.

Outlook Calendar items not quite on the right day on BB

I use Outlook to manage my diary and the Outlook calendar sychs with by Blackberry Curve (OS6). However, the dates of some items (created in Outlook) are not consistent between Outlook and the Blackberry. For example, for this Friday 28 October, I have an all day appointment and it appears correctly in Outlook. On my Blackberry, the same appointment is dated Thursday 27 October and appears on both Thursday and Friday.
Can you help me fix this please???
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi 7cityRS
This sounds like you have a time zone problem. Either the time zone is not set correctly on your BlackBerry or on your PC/Outlook. For example, if they are off by one hour, an All-Day appointment, which is scheduled from 12am-12am in Outlook, would sycn to the BlackBerry and start at 11pm the previous day, making it stretch over 2 days.
Thanks

Outlook calendar items I create not syncing with iphone

I am having difficulty with my outlook items syncing correctly with my iPhone. Any calendar items that other people create are synced correctly but if I create an entry, they are not.
Any suggestions?

Are you creating entries with the iPhone, iCal, or outlook? You should check which calendar is set as default. You might be entering events in a calendar that is not being synced, but it will still appear on the device you used for entry.
On the iPhone, this setting would be in Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars ... scroll to the bottom to find the CALENDARS section an look at the Default Calendar setting.

Duplicate Outlook Calendar Items after upgrade to os5

Hi,
   I upgraded to os 5 the other day on my Iphone 4. I have an MSN email account with an MSN calendar. I have a lot of daily calendar items which are like reminders. I usually delete that days recurring reminder each day or 2 to keep a clean calendar. After I upgraded I switched to the Cloud. After that sync, I have duplicate calendar items for EVERY item on my calendar back years ago. This includes both onetime items and recurring (daily ,weekly, yearly) items.
   I found an old post that said to turn off sync calendar and deletethe items off the phone then turn back on. Well, I went into setting>mail>cloud and turned off calendar sync and waited 10 minutes. It deleted the duplicates but kept all the rest. I then went and turned calendar syncback on and all the duplicates showed up again.
   Any ideas on how to get rid of the duplicates?

I found the answer.
1. plug the phone in to your computer or wall plug or this does not work!
2. Go to settings>Icloud> and turn off calander sync. Then delete all items. Now your iphone calendar should be blank.
3. Now got to Icloud.com and log in using apple ID.
4. Look at your calendar. On the left edit your calendars and remove all of them. Now your cloud calendar should be blank.
5. Now go back to your Iphone cloud setting and turn calandar sync on. After awhile your Iphone calander should match your Outlook calnder and your Icloud calander should too.
