Calendar entries slow and no longer synchronising with iCloud and devices

I have a MacBook Pro Retina, Maverick IOS 10.9.2 is the master. Why do new calendar entries no longer sync with other devices and why is there a coloured bubble and I have to wait for an entry to be in the the calendar for about 30 seconds time? Before, new items could be put into the calendar very fast. I have this problem since a few days. Everything else (email, contacts etc.) are synchronising well. I habe checked if there is a tick and everthing looks ok to me. Thank you for your help.
Regards, Chris

I use gmail for my calender so I sync calender to gmail and icloud. Right now, neither are showing up in calender on iphone.
I did have gmail notes syncing as well as Icloud notes, but turned that off last night in case that was causing the confusion. It hasn't resolved the notes problem.
Any ideas? It does seem a bit odd.

IWork apps no longer sync with iCloud. I am on iOS 5.1,1, and this problem is several days old, before it was working fine. Anyone has an idea?

iWork apps no longer sync with iCloud. I am on iOS 5.1,1, and this problem is several days old, before it was working fine. Anyone has an idea?

Sadly this is not a new problem and I would not expect a forthcoming solution. I bought an iPad 3G and the iWork suite at the end of August and iCloud syncing worked fine. About the time Apple rolled out iOS 6 the syncing stopped working for me (without me upgrading or changing anything). It has never really worked since. Run iOS 5.1.1 on both the iPhone 4 and iPad 3G. The "geniuses" claim that Apples iOS 5 requirement is not correct and that I MUST upgrade both to ios 6 (although I know for fact that lots of folks STILL have the iCloud probs even with its 6. The last genius basically shrugged and non-verbally acknowledged the iCloud/iWork failing and suggested "just use Dropbox.". So why the **** did we pay for iWork!?!?!
Basically the iwork/iCloud Connnection is broken and I have yet to get a viable solution to repair the issue. Sorry for the bad news. For reference I have uninstalled/installed each iteration of iWork upgrades on each device without success. I have reset all settings multiple times, turned iCloud off/on repeatedly etc etc without success. I even wiped the iPad and restored from iCloud w/o intention (another Apple IPad "glitch" when I tried the "reset all settings" and the iPad decided to "erase all" instead. The genius said "it happens.")
Oddly, the Pages app is the only one that has marginally worked at times since the first probs. However it is basically broken and non-functioning. Certainly DO NOT trust vital documents to iCloud/iWork. I lost a number of work critical docs in this whole annoying, messy process of trying to get what Apple promised as easy....

My iMac and MacBook Calendar will no longer sync with iCloud. I don't understand why?

All of the sudden about 10 days ago, I noticed that when I asked to refresh my calendar, that it just hangs on both my iMac and my MacBook. And neither are syncing with iCloud calendar. I'm not certain if my iphone calendar is synching or not because nothing is getting transferred to my iMac or MacBook.
The system status says all is OK. My iCloud is still turned on for both computers. So I'm not sure what to do next.

Yes. iCloud on the web is correct although the latest stuff I added to my MacBook is not showing up because it won't sync.
In System Preferences iCloud is selected and they are turned on on both machines as always.
There are no other calendars linked to iCal. I just have a Home, Work, and Birthday and US Holidays all linked in.
I did try something on my MacBook that seemed to work. I went into System Preferences and turned off Calendars and Reminders in the iCloud setting. That prompted a message that all of the iCloud iCal data would be removed from the computer. I made sure the web version was accurate before I did this. Then I shut down my computer and restarted. When I restarted I went back into System Preferences and turned on Calendars and Reminders and now it seems to be working.
I'm about to try the same thing on my iMac.
If this works both times, my question then would be what would cause both my iMac and MacBook to disconnect as it seems from iCloud when I hadn't changed anything at all.

ICal no longer synchronising with MobileMe

My wife has an iMac and a MacBook both synchronising with (and via) MobileMe. Both Intel machines are running Snow Leopard.
All were synchronising perfectly, including iCal, until as requested by MobileMe, I upgraded to the New Calendar.
Now only the Imac synchronises correctly. TheMacBook returns a pop-up stating that the iCal has "either wrong ID login OR wrong Password" !
(Le serveur n’a pas reconnu votre nom d’utilisateur ou votre mot de passe pour le compte « [email protected] ». Assurez-vous de les avoir correctement saisis.)
I have stopped the synchronisation and cancelled the iDisk synchronising.
Then connected again at the level of MacBook and logged again to the account. And synchronised again. It states first login for the calander.
The MacBook synchronises but the calendar returns the error.
My wife's account is sub (family) account of my main MobileMe account.
Help me please as I really don't understand nor do I know what to do !
Regards,
Kevin in France

Thanks for the effort and response. I was able to contact Apple Help and I downgraded back to the old mobileme iCal. The new mobileme iCal is very inflexible. The Month header takes a huge font. Fonts on appointments can't be changed and, as a result, appointments can be seen in their entirety. There are other very irritating things about the new iCal and my conclusion is that it's just a very weak attempt at Outlook and has a long way to go before it's usable. I just hope Apple doesn't cut us off the "old" calendar which works very well (and has for some time now)

How can i swap the content such as messages, calendar entries, apps and app data between two iphone 4s?

I have a Iphone 4s and my friend has one too and we want to switch phones but do not want to lose any data or message or calendar entries, we want the same exact content avaliable in my phone swapped to his and his to mine. how can this be done?

Back up your phones onto your respective computers with iTunes, swap phones, Reset them and when you connect it to iTunes, instead of "Set up as a new iPhone", click on restore from back up

IPhon 4: After recently updating to version 7.1.2, all my past calendar entries disappeared and I cannot add new entries.

After recently updating to 7.1.2, all of my past calendar entries for 22014 disappeared and I cannot add new entries??

What account were you using to sync your Calendar? Make sure that account is added to the device, and make sure that Calendars is turned on for that account.
Then, go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars, and make sure that under the Calendar section that 'Sync' is set to 'All Events'.
Then go to the Calendar app, go to Calendars, and make sure that you have that account enabled.
Then, close out all the running apps on your device, and restart it.
Open up your Calendar app. Are your entries back?

Calendar on my iPhone 6 is no longer syncing with iCloud since I update to IOS 8.1

Apparently there are some syncing issues with iCloud with the new IOS 8.1.
Is there any chance to have a solution for that or we have to wait for a new update?

Like Jim, mine is mirroring with no problem. I use it several times a week. It would not appear to something Apple needs to fix. As for "all the fixes here" we have no way of knowing what that means, so it is difficult to determine what to recommend.

IWork on my iPhone no longer syncs with iCloud

About two weeks ago, I noticed that my numbers documents stopped syncing with icloud. I would see the upload icon but nothing would actually happen. Edits I made on my phone wouldn't upload and documents I created on my mac wouldn't download. All other icloud functions work on my phone. My documents are making it to icloud without incident when I create or edit them on my mac.
I've tried reseting my phone, doing a software restore, removing then reinstalling Numbers and Pages and updating both apps. Most recently, I updated to iOS 6. Nothing has worked. Is there anything that I can do short of setting ym iphone up as a new phone. I really don't want to do that and loose my message history and call data.
thanks

Is it everything that no longer syncs, or is it just one of the things, i.e. just calendar, contacts, notes? Many times as mentioned in the earlier post, it can be caused by a corrupt .pst file. Run the scanpst.exe application that resides in the Office folder. That will run a repair on the .pst file. Go into iTunes and reset the sync history and then try the sync again. If that doesn't help, it is possible there is a corrupt appointment in the calendar. That can cause a problem with syncing.
Try those couple of hints and see if that helps. Come back if it doesn't and let us know some more specifics.

Pages/Keynote 2.2.2 No Longer Syncing with iCloud on my iPhone 4S

I have an iPhone 4S with iOS 7.1.2 running the iWork apps (Pages, Keynote, Numbers) version 2.2.2. I've noticed I can no longer have my documents in any of these apps on my iPhone sync with the iCloud server. Anything I draft in the app doesn't get pushed to the server or to my other devices and I can't get any changes made on other devices pushed to my iPhone. YET, I have an iPad 2 running the same version of iOS 7 and same versions of the iWork app and it communicates with the iCloud server flawlessly. I can also see my changes on my Mac running the latest version of Mavericks and the iWork apps and any changes made on my Mac show up on my iPad 2 (and vice versa). And the iWork BETA on the iCloud website shows all of my documents and updates perfectly fine too.
Why is it just my iPhone that is having problems. I use these apps for work and often times it's my iPhone I have on me at all times. Now I can no longer update my documents on the go. I've tried uninstalling the apps, turning on/off iCloud on my iPhone and nothing works. Does anybody have a fix for this? Has anybody else been experiencing these issues?
APPLE, PLEASE FIX iWORK APPS FOR iOS AND HAVE EACH VERSION SYNC FLAWLESSLY WITH iCLOUD PLEASE!!!!!!

Yes, they are appearing in All Mail in the g-mail account on line. I didn't suspect the iPhone, other than possibly something to do with an update to the iOS. Any suggestions to cure the problem are appreciated, as are any suggestions for viewing All Mail in my g-mail account sequentially, rather than by threads!
Thanks very much.

ICal calendars on my Mac don't sync with iCloud

Am I missing something? When I configured iCloud, I noticed that I suddenly had duplicates of my Address Book and Calenders. My Mac can sync with my phone, my phone can sync with iCloud, but I can't sync my Mac with iCloud.
Maybe I'm too lazy and haven't read enough about it, but it seems like a total cluster.
So now, when I want to update my calendar on my Mac, I have to go to iCloud instead of using iCal.
Anyway, if I'm missing something... feel free to point it out. No offense taken

I have something similar and i will try to explain with my rusty english.
I have an ID on iCloud but i can't sync the iCal events.
On my mac there is everythign (appointment, notes birthdays and so on). On my iCloud there is nothing.
I suppose was something related with the old ID (one just for ichat, not one of the ID that you pay to receive extra services or a @me.com account).
Now, as soon as the icloud features was installed on my Macbook Air I signed a new ID and initially everything worked fine. Emails on Mail and contacts were syncronized properly but with the new ID. i did not check iCal account.
So i tried also with the old one (the ichat ID) and all was sync. So i realized that maybe Apple recognized same account or name and merge all the ID in just one.
I was wrong.
The 2 ID's are not linked.
further checks add also this new weird stuff. in any case i cant sync ical accounts. i tried to switch from one to another ID. no way. i checked preferences in iCal on the mac. everything is fine. no way.
do uu have any idea?

Calendar on Macbook Pro won't synch with iCloud

Calendar on my Macbook Pro won't synch with the Calendar on iCloud. I tried a number of times to delete Calendar from iCloud in System Preferences then restart the laptop. I also switched the 'enable' function on and off in Calendar Preferences. I restarted after every attempt and also refreshed. It looks as if it's updating but then nothing happens and the triangular, exclamation mark appears, grayed out, next to the iCloud icon in Calendar. I saw an answer in the Apple Support troubleshooting section regarding this about the server having to access port 80 or 443. Could this be the problem and if so then how would I make any port accessible to the relevant server? I'm not having this problem with my other devices or computer.

Hello Wateru,
Thank you for providing the details of the calendar issue you are experiencing with your MacBook Pro. You have taken some really good troubleshooting steps already. I recommend continuing with the steps in the sections titled "General troubleshooting" and "Troubleshooting on OS X" in the following article:

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,

Outlook 2007 Calendar is not longer synchronised with iphone 3

For quite a while my iphone 3 doesn´t sync with the calendar of outlook 2007. All other items (contacts, bookmarks etc.) are synchronised. Has anyone an idea what can be done?

See my append here and see if it helps... actually see the whole thread

Since iOS8 my iphone 3GS no longer synchronises with my two ipads and my laptop. none of the many suggested solutions work. i rely on my phone to work as it did before for medical reasons. i did not ask for this to happen. why must i pay?

as my iphone used to remind me when to take my medicine wherever i was i could trust apple and its products for use. i can no longer do this and mourn the loss of freedom of movement i had prior to iOS8. i have spent days and days following advice and suggested remedies without success. i see no other solutions than buying a phone that will sync with iOS8. but why should i pay to repair damage to the system i have relied upon done by someone else? is it in fact legat for anyone to do this to me, or anyone else?

I cannot check any recorded version of any telephone call. You are referring to me as if I am an Apple employee. That could not be further than the truth. If you took the time to read any part of where you register for the forum, this is a user to user forum. I am a user just like yourself.
You made the statement that you use your phone to create a reminder to take medication. A 3GS phone is incapable of running iOS8, so that has nothing to do with it. I asked if you have iOS8 on your iPads, which you fail to identify, and avoid the answer. And where does the laptop fit into this, since it does not use iOS8.
If you were to identify the problem you are alleging, then someone might be interested in helping. You do not indicate your issue except to say about an inability to synchronize between devices. And I do not appreciate your assessment of my character.
Let me be precise: You are not addressing Apple, no one can determine what has happened to your devices since you do not describe the issues, and it is not up to users to determine responsibility. I suggest you contact Apple again, as you state you have done, and take up the issue with them.
I'm through.

When I updated Iphone software and synchronized with MacBook, newest calendar entries were deleted. Other experiences with this? If so, how do I prevent this? I have Iphone 3G

On at least 2 occasions, when I updated Iphone software and synced with MacBook, my newest calendar events were deleted. The information in Ical and on IPhone reverted to an older version of events instead of defaulting to the new information. I know of at least 1 other person who experienced this; is this a common occurrence? What is the reason for it and the remedy? How do I prevent this from happening in the future?

When I use find file http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/30073/find-file (which does tend to find files that "Finder" can't), it's not coming up with any other itunes library files that have been modified in the past week, which I know it would have been - unfortunately, I don't have a very recent backup of the hard drive. It would be a few months old so it wouldn't have the complete library on it....any ideas? I'm wondering if restarting the computer might help but have been afraid to do so in case it would make it harder to recover anything...I was looking at this thread https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4211589?start=0&tstart=0 in the hopes that it might have a helpful suggestion but it's definitely a different scenario.

Why are the calendars on my Mac no longer syncing with my iPhone and/or my iPad since the last IOS upgrade?

Since installing the IOS upgrade, it seems impossible to sync the calendar(s) on my iMac (via the cloud OR via cable) with my iPhone 4 or my iPad (last generation).
Any thoughts?

What happens when you try to sync? Error messages?
