Calendar account exceeded iCloud quota

I'm exceeding my calendar entry limit. How do I backup old entries and then delete them?
I'm facing the following error message (iCloud on web):
Couldn't add "Test" to Calendar. This account has exceeded the iCould quota. Please contact customer support.
So, how do I fix this? Can I download and backup old entries and then delete them to make room?
I have an iPad and iPhone, but no Mac.
Thanks for helpful ideas!
Rainer.

OK, update for my records and for others' future benefit!  ;-)
Deleting a large range of events, such as all events before 2010, seems not possible. Even Apple Support couldn't find a way to do that. The best they could come up with was to buy or borrow a Mac, use that calendar app, and then delete all events in the monthly view.
Turns out, this is possible also in iCloud Calendar. Using the monthly view, you can select all shown events (CTRL-A) and the hit DEL to delete them. It's horribly slow (several minutes per month for me) but it seems to work.

  • Delete all calendars from an iCloud account

    Hi  Support Communities,
    did anyone find a way to delete all calendars from an iCloud account? It seems that iCloud wants to keep at least one calendar. We use several accounts and one is only used to look at shared calendars from other accounts. So there is no need for its own empty calendar. On iOS I just hid this calendar, but on OS X it is always visible. I unchecked it, but it would be nice if I could just delete it. If I do so on an iOS device it is gone, but reappears later. Trying to delete it on a Mac results in an error that it can’t be deleted, same goes for the web interface at icloud.com. It’s just a cosmetic issue, but I would prefer it to be gone altogether. Any ideas?
    Thanks
    Björn

    I had hoped I was wrong, you never know. Well, thanks anyway!

  • Our home network has multiple devices connected by iCloud. Having problem with Calendar. On one iMac, all the events are duplicated. How can I correct that problem? Under the Calendar accounts, I had my Apple id listed and also just iCloud.

    Our home network has multiple devices connected by iCloud: 2 iMacs, 2 iPhone 4s, 1 MacPro Laptop, and 1 iPad 2.  When using Calendar, all the events were
    duplicated on my husbands iMac.  On his computer, under Calendar accounts, I had included iCloud and also my iCloud ID.  I thought that because I had two accounts listed that were connected to iCloud, that might be the cause of the duplication.  When I deleted ithe calendars from one of the accounts, it resulted
    in deleting all of the events on all of our network devices!
    I have since entered some new events into Calendar from my iMac and from my iPhone.  These appear correctly on all devices except my husband's iMac where they are again all duplicated.
    I have two questions: 1)  How can I eliminate the duplicated events on my husband's computer and 2) How do I retrieve the old wiped out Calendar events from
    Time Capsule.  I don't know how to find Calendar in the Time Capsule.  If I find the Calendar information in Time Capsule, how do I transfer it to my current Calendars?
    I was obtaining phone help from one of the Apple techs at Apple Support, but our call was disconnected part way through.  Didn't know how to reconnect with the tech.
    Thanks for any help.

  • HT204053 cannot sync calendar on my new ipad mini. my mac and macbook use a .me account for iCloud. How can I change this?

    I cannot sync calendar on new ipad mini. My mac desktop and mac book have an old .me icloud account name. Cannot change that so how do I sync?

    If you had a passcode set on your iPad your data should be safe.  The thief would have to force it into recovery mode and restore it in order to use it, which would completely erase it.
    This shouldn't keep your daughter's device from accessing the iCloud account however.  If you can no longer sign into the account on iCloud.com from your computer, contact Apple support for assistance.

  • Ipad - how to push Exchange calendar events to iCloud account? MobileIron is used to get Exchange data -- is there an app to push the ipad version of the events to iCloud?

    ipad - how to push Exchange calendar events to iCloud account? MobileIron is used to get Exchange data -- is there an app to push the ipad version of the events to iCloud?
    There are two separate calendars on ipad (ios 7.1) one for icloud, one fo exchange. I have tried a couple of calendar apps and while they do a good job of showing the events in the app - they don't push (synch) back to iCloud. Any thoughts on an app that will take my ipad calendars and synch them to a single icloud calendar/account?
    Thanks

    Hi
    You asked about a recommendation for an app to paste a group of addresses into the To, Cc or Bcc fields of an email?
    Our "MailShot Pro" app is the only one we know of on the App Store that creates special "group contacts" in your address book which contain all your groups email addresses, but can be used just like regular contacts from most of your favourite apps. We now have nearly 50000 people using it, and growing steadily every day.
    Here is a link if you would like to know more “MailShot Pro” (itunes link).
    A free version is also available if you'd like to try it out with a small nmber of contacts.

  • Error message--Outlook Calendar-exceeding iCloud limits

    I am on Windows 7 and Outlook 2010. I synk with my iPhone with iCloud. As I try to save new events in Outlook (desktop) I get an error message: "could not save item. Exceeding iCloud limits" I checked my desktop iCloud and I am using a fraction of the 5GB. Anyone else has this problem?

    I have the same issue
    WIndows 7, Outlook 2010, all the latest win updates loaded. including apple and microsoft OS/apps.
    I use iCloud with iPhone IPad, Macbook Air w/Outlook 2011 Mac and PC with the above config.
    I also tried Google Apps, but that doesnt seemt to work well for calendar & contacts, email no problem
    The exchange server worked great, but looking to move off that service, but keep the ability to use outlook.
    Working with the apple team, they suggested moving to iCloud. 
    "Exceeding iCloud Limits!" - which doesn't seem to be clear what they mean for two caledar items added in outlook PC.

    Tap the little claendar icon at the top left (next to the search icon) and see what calendars are set up in WeekCal.  If none are enabled, then enable the one(s) you want to use.

  • Can MobileMe email-only accounts access iCloud?

    So I have a MBP running Lion with a MobileMe account and my wife has an email-only address under that MobleMe account. We also sync Address Books, all accessed thru her old MB Core Duo running Snow Leopard, not upgradeable to Lion. If I switch to iCloud will she still be able to access Mail and sync Address Book? Can't find a definitive answer anywhere in the Apple iCloud support pages.... Help please!

    I couldn't either. With help from others and a MacWorld article finally got it figured out: You DO want to have two iCloud accounts, but you want one iCloud account to be the source for the Contacts, Calendars, Bookmarks, iTunes, and PhotoStream on both machines. There is a solution.
    The issue: MobileMe account including its own email account, with the user also paying $10 for a second email-only account. The MobileMe account is used for joint Contacts, Calendar, and Safari Bookmarks on two machines, while the main MobileMe mail account was used for mail on one machine and the email-only account was used for mail on the other machine.
    We wanted to upgrade to iCloud on both machines and still have joint Contacts, Calendar and Safari bookmarks, plus share our iTunes account and use the new PhotoStream feature on both machines - but preserve the two individual email accounts.
    Solution: On the first machine, move to iCloud with everything, using the main MobileMe account name and password. On the second machine, USE THE EMAIL-ONLY ACCOUNT to create a new iCloud account using the username and password for the email only account. That appears to be the critical step: you need to create that new iCloud account with the username and password for the email only account FIRST rather than migrating to iCloud on the second machine using the main MobileMe account name, or else you may permanently lose that second email-only account!
    After that, it's all a matter of tweaking the account settings on the other apps to direct to the iCloud account on the first machine.
    You will get a screen asking if you want to delete the existing Contacts on that second machine. Do so: DELETE THE EXISTING CONTACTS on that second machine. (Only after backing up your Address Book by using the export function just to be safe.)
    Then, WITHIN EACH APPLICATION - Address Book, iTunes, Calendar, Safari - go to the Preferences and set them so that they are tied to the iCloud account for the first machine.
    You may need to check your Preferences: for a little while my wife was getting both my mail and hers, until I noticed that within Mail.app she had two accounts: her iCloud account AND my iCloud account. I deleted my account on her machine.

  • Bought my hubby an iphone4 and I registered it and opened an apple account for him.  I have an iphone 5 (under my own Apple account).  I use icloud to sync calender and contacts with outlook 2007.  How do I add my hubby's phone (account) to icloud ?

    On his phone, sign in Settings>iCloud and enable Mail so that he can have his own email address. Then add your account in Settings>Mail, Contacts & Calendars and enable Contacts and Calendars. They will then appear on his phone alongside any syncing he has set up. This will keep your emails separate, or you can add Mail as well so that you can both access that if you want. You can add his account in the same way on your phone and enable any data types you want to sync.

  • Family Sharing won't work because I have two separate accounts for iCloud and iTunes

    I have two Apple accounts, one that is connected to my iTunes Store purchases, and another for iCloud. I had to do this for reasons related to transitioning from the old MobileMe service to iCloud a few years ago.
    So now with Family Sharing, if I use my iTunes account, I can't share calendars or other iCloud type information, and if I use my iCloud account I can't share my music and app purchases.
    Is there anything I can do to remedy this? Can I combine everything into a single account somehow?

    Under "Setting up Family Sharing" here: https://developer.apple.com/icloud/documentation/family-sharing/ it says:
    "You can accept a Family Sharing invitation from any compatible iOS device or Mac where you are signed into iCloud. Or, if the organizer is nearby, they can simply ask you to enter your iCloud Apple ID and password during the setup process. To complete setup, you will also confirm the Apple ID you use for the iTunes, iBooks, and App Stores so you can share your purchases with family members."
    This suggests that you can specify a different ID for the iTunes store if you aren't using your iCloud ID for purchasing.

  • Multiple email accounts in icloud

    Hi, I've got a client who is currently using icloud calendar, google mail (for her business emails) and icloud mail for her personal emails.
    I need to try and sync things up for her so that I can manage her accounts for her. What I would like to do, if possible, is the following:
    Share her calendar with my calendar
    Keep her private emails in icloud
    Forward / copy her emails from google account to icloud mail so that they sit in a seperate inbox from her personal emails BUT, when she responds to the business emails from the icloud mail, the recipient still sees that it has come from the google mail address. (reason why I want her to move away from googlemail is because I don't think it's as tidy a system to use as icloud mail)
    Is this possible - and if so, how do I do it because I can't seem to get any answer from other forums on here.
    Thanks
    Nikki

    In fact you weren't using MobileMe to send 'From' the other account, you were using the web page to send using that account's SMTP server (MobileMe's own server only allowed the use of its own addresses).
    That facility is not available in iCloud, and similarly you can send using only your @me.com/@mac.com address as the 'From' address.

  • How do I subscribe to an Exchange account on iCloud?

    I have set up an Exchange account on my iPhone and MPB. The email shows up in Mail on both iPhone and my MBP. My schedule shows up in iCal on the MPB and in Calendar on the iPhone. If I use the web to go to iCloud, I can only get my .Mac mail and my personal iCal schedule. Is there a way to get my Exchange mail and calendar sent to the Cloud? I have a work around for the calendar by exporting my Exchange calendar, then reimporting it into another calendar I created in iCal. It will then show up in the Cloud on the web. I have to manually update it any time there are new schedule events or changes to the original. Any idea how I can have my mail and calendar from work go to the Cloud as well so that I can check them both from any computer if I am away from my computer and/or phone?

    Is there a way to get my Exchange mail and calendar sent to the Cloud?
    No. Exchange and iCloud are two independent calendar systems and iCloud is not designed to interact with Exchange.
    For email, you may be able to configure your Exchange account to forward emails to your iCloud email address.

  • HT5527 I did not move my Mobileme account to iCloud. How can I get off the iCloud mailing list?

    I did not move my Mobileme account to iCloud. How can I get off the iCloud mailing list?

    If you migrated your MobileMe account before 1 August you should have signed into System Preferences>iCloud with it, and you would be able to see your calendars, bookmarks and emails on the iCloud website. Is this the case? Did you sign into iCloud with your @me.com address?
    If you did not migrate your MobileMe account you can no longer do so.
    If you did migrate, did you do so from a full MobileMe account or from a Family Pack sub-account? the latter did not get the complimentary storage (because their iDisks were only 5GB anyway).
    If you had a full MobileMe account, check on your Mac - System Preferences>iCloud - and see whether that shows the upgrade. If it doesn't, you probably need to contact Support: if you currently happen to have AppleCare, either because you recently bought Apple hardware or have paid to extend the inititial period, you can contact them here:
    http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/contact/
    You will need the serial number of the covered hardware.
    If you are not covered by AppleCare, then - in common with other free email services - there is no free support (MobileMe Support is no longer available) and you may be asked to pay a fee: in this case you should ask them to deal with it without cost (and hope they agree).
    Note that you haven't paid anything for your MobileMe storage since your first renewal date after 6 June 2011, and iCloud costs nothing unless you specifically choose to upgrade the storage. Note also the iCloud storage is not general file storage in the manner of the iDisk but is restricted to iOS device Backup, Mail, Photo Journal and Documents.

  • Creation of Microsoft Azure Website failed. Cannot move or create server. Subscription ' id ' will exceed server quota.

    I'm trying to create a new MVC website with azure cloud server. However, when creating my project/solution in visual studio I get the following error.
    Creation of Microsoft Azure Website failed. Cannot move or create server. Subscription '<id>' will exceed server quota.
    During the day I created several MVC projects, as a learning exercise, and it worked fine. Now it's failing every time I create a new MVC website with Azure.
    Every time I created a website, I have always deleted any generated Azure sites and databases via the management portal. Currently I have no websites in Azure. Thus I don't see how I've reached a quota,
    Any ideas what might be going wrong?
    My subscription is pay as you go.

    Hi,
    It might be due to various other resources (sql DB, application insight, etc) that you may have created while deploying earlier websites, and filled up your Quota. Due to which, creating new resources would exceed the quota limit.
    Check for the unused resources and clear them. It may clear the error and allow you to create new websites.
    Otherwise, It should be an Account related issue than Technical issue. I suggest you contact Azure support, it is a best choice for you, Please contact support team by creating a support ticket at
