Calendar events created on iphone do not sync to ical...

I have created several events on my iphone calendar then watched them disappear when performing a sync with my laptop. I have gone to itunes, hi-lited my iphone (when mounted) then gone to "info" tab in itunes, I've selected "home" where it says "Put new events created on this iphone into the calendar" (pull down menu)
None of these phone-created-events end up in "home" or "work" or any of my other calendars. My laptop ical overrides anything on the phone and deletes it. Is there something else I should be checking or setting? I have the most current version of iphone software that's been offered (1.1.4). I would like to be able to put an event in there and have the sync work both ways.

Never mind. For some reason it just worked. I guess I really meant it this time.

Calendar events created in iPhone don't sycn to iCal

I migrated from a Blackberry to iPhone about a month ago, so am somewhat green to the nuances of the platform.
I notice that when I create a calendar event in the iPhone (3g, 2.2.1), it does not get sync'ed to my iCal calendar. Changes in iCal sync to the iPhone just fine.
I've done the reset suggestions listed in the Apple support site that relate to resetting the iSync history as well as running the unix command with no change.
Any suggestions here?
thanks,
Larry

I am also having the problem. Events created on the iPhone do not sync to either my MobileMe calendar (no matter what platform (Mac/PC) or browser(IE/Safafi) I open it from)or the iCals on either my desktop or laptops Macs. All have MobileMe preferences set to sync calendars, and iPhone is set to Sync with my Macs in iTunes. All events added anywhere BUT the iPhone itself, sync across all my Macs and MobileMe, only the event actually added from the iPhone itself fail to sync.
Anybody got anything new on this?

Events created by iphone do not sync to my macbook through itunes

Hello,
I have a problem with my IPhone and my MacBook. I use to work with my IPhone (photos, calendar, mail...) and then when I go home I sync it to my MacBook through ITunes as always. But two weeks ago I realize that the events I was creating in ICal by my IPhone doesn't pass to ICal in my MacBook.
I tried to fix it using iSync as someone told me, but it doesn't work.
Can someone tell me if he had the same problem and how to solve it?
Thanks,
JL.

The calendar that you are adding events to must be in the "iCloud" section of the Calendars app, not in something like "On my iPhone". Could this be the problem?
Otherwise be sure both mac and device are connected to the same icloud account. Check Settings>icloud and System Preferences>icloud, and be sure both those pages have Calendars turned on.
If these don't solve things, then to test whether it's the iphone or mac that's the problem, using the mac's safari, log into icloud.com with your account ID and look at the Calendars page. If the events are not listed, then the iphone is not set correctly. If they are there, then the mac is not set correctly.

Event created on iPhone does not appear in iCal

When I create an event on my phone and sync, it does not appear in iCal. Events created on my laptop sync without issue. Contacts sync both ways, but calendar events do not go from the phone to the computer. I am not using MobileMe to sync, simply using the USB cable.
I have tried the following to resolve my issues:
* Make sure iTunes and iPhone are up to date
* Make sure all calendars are set to sync with iTunes
* Try different USB ports on the laptop
* Restart phone and computer
* Reset sync history in iSync and re-sync
* Follow directions in this support article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1627 to do a full reset of sync history and re-sync
Yet after trying all of those solutions, I still cannot sync events created on my phone to my laptop. Does anyone out there know of anything else I can try that might work?
Thank you,
Cameron

After a trip to the genius bar, I found how to solve this problem, at least for me:
0) Plug in iPhone
1) Start iCal
2) Export all calendars (File -> Export)
3) Quit iCal
4) Delete all calendars from ~/Library/Calendars
5) Start iCal
6) Import all exported calendars
7) Start iTunes, configure syncing to overwrite calendars on phone
8) Sync iPhone

New events created in phone are not synced to iCal

While waiting for my economy to allow for an iPhone, I recently started to use my old mobile, a Sony-Ericsson T610, for calendars. The problem is that events I create in the phone won't sync back to the computer. iCal syncs its events into the phone alright, but events from the phone aren't added to iCal.
I haven't tried this on any other version of OS X but the current (10.5.2), so I can't tell you if this is a new problem or if it's always been this way ...

The plot thickens ...
I just fixed my iCal sync problem with .Mac by refreshing .Mac with the data from my iMac and then syncing it to my iBook. Well, it finally worked, but surprise surprise, a few posts from my mobile/cell T610 appeared in the iBooks iCal, although they aren't in the iMac's iCal. So it seems like the events I have created on the T610 do transfer to the iMac -- it's just that they don't display in iCal. Or rather, in the syncing computer's iCal ...
What do you make of this?

Ical on iphone does not sync with ical on mac, but the mac does it!

My ical on my iphone does not sync with ical on mac using MobileMe, but reverse it works very well.
so typing an new event in ical on my phone will NOT appear in ical at my computer. Typing a new event on my mac, than within 10 seconds it appears on my phone.
anybody know how to resolve this? never had the problem before
problem 2: ical on my iphone seems to duplicate a lot of events. Non of them are duplicated on my computer.
related problem?
thank
Hein

I have solved my problem - don't know if yours is the same. I noticed on iPhone, when I listed the calendars there are two sections: the top line showed "All Calendars ->"; when I click on that I get duplicate entries for everything.
Below that is:
"From My Mac.
"All from My Mac ->", followed by a list of individual calendars. When I clicked on that I got single entries.
This led me to realize that in my Settings ->Accounts I had the old "...mac.com" a/c and new "..me.com" a/c. I had thought it didn't matter.
Once I eliminated the "mac.com" A/c, I had only one set of calendars.
Hope this helps you.

Calendar events on my iPhone are not synching to iCloud. iOS latest, Calendar 6.0

I can't get my iPhone calendar to update events to or from iCloud. I've tried event setting I can find. I've set the Calendar 6.0 programe on my MacBook and it works fine with iCloud and I can see my MacBook events on www.icloud.com. But events on the iPhone are not there and vice versa. What could I possible have missed?
I've read a lot of disscusion, didn't understand most of it. I'm at wits end.
Thanks,
John

On the device, go to settings>icloud and look to be sure it is logged into the right account and be sure the Calendar sync is turned on.
Is the device syncing with icloud with any of the other services, like contacts?

IPhone will not sync with iCal

I'm having problems whereby events created on my iPhone is not syncing with my iCal. (Entry does not show up on iCal after sync)

archonium,
did you check the sync iCal option in the iTunes (iPhone) sync tab?
If you did and that doesn't work. Try this....
1) Open Disk Utilities on your mac and run 'Repair Disk Permissions' on your hard drive
2) Restart your mac.
3) try again. If it still doesn't work, try resettin the iPhone. Try again.
4) If the above doesn't work. Try RESTORING your iPhone via iTunes. That may work.
hope one of these work
good luck!

IPhone does not sync to iCal

I am running version 4.0. Since the upgrade my iPhone does not sync events back to iCal on my Macbook Pro. It does sync the other way--iCal to iPhone, but I need it to do both. I have looked in all the easy places for an answer. I must be missing something. What can I do.

I spoke with technical support at Apple last night and they walked me through a solution to my iphone to ical sync issue -- the only problem is that I had to enter all the events I wanted to keep since my last successful sync (which was before I updated to ios 4) into ical manually. If you are ready to do this then the steps below may work for you:
1. You are going to be pushing your calendar from ical onto your iphone so you will lose any events that are currently on your iphone but not on ical -- you will need to update ical manually to ensure you don't lose anything important.
2. Scroll down in the info tab in itunes to the Advanced options at the bottom -- where it says replace the information on my iphone and select calendar.
3. Sync, check that your iphone calendar matches your ical calendar
4. Add a new test event to the iphone (the selection you made in advanced should have automatically deselected after you sync'd but check just to make sure)
5. Sync again -- check if your test event was transferred -- i hope you have success!

Iphone does not sync with Ical

When I add an item in Ical it always appears on my Iphone after a sync. However, if I add a calendar item on my Iphone and then sync it never appears in Ical. I have looked at the settings 100 times and no matter what I do I cannot get this to work properly.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks

If resetting sync history doesn't work for you (it didn't for me), you can try the following. This solution, although lousy, seemed to work. Make sure you have auto-sync selected from iTunes. Reboot with your iphone plugged in. When you log in, do not open any of the applications required by iTunes to sync. I got my contacts and my calendar items. Finally. Now if Apple could fix this in the next update, we'll all be set.

Calendar event created on iphone not showing in ical.

I have a 4S and when I create a calendar event in ical, it does not show up in my ical ofn my Macbook Pro.
I have check sync calendars in iTunes and have selected to display all calendars in my Macbook's iCal.
Is ther some thing I am overlooking, or a step I may be forgetting?

Yahoo Calendars entries created on Yahoo do not sync on iphone after upgrad

After upgrading to IOS4, any previous or new calendar entries that have been created on the web in Yahoo calendars do not appear on the iphone. However, if you create a new yahoo calendar entry on the iphone then it appears without any problem in yahoo calendars (and also is removed if you delete from the iphone).
The calendar is turned on correctly in Mail, Contacts, Calendars for the Yahoo accounts I have and I have even deleted and re-created the accounts on the iphone to see if that makes a difference and it does not.
Prior to the upgrade to iOS4, the yahoo calendars all worked fine.
Any ideas

To fix yahoo calendars then do the following:-
To reset, go to Settings, Mail, Contacts, Calendar. In this menu, go to "Calendars" options which is near the bottom. In the Sync categories change the setting from "*All Events*" to "*Events 6 Months Back*". Go to the calendar app and it should now Sync all of your Yahoo calendars. Go back to settings and change Sync settings back to "All Events" and they should all still appear.
Also, for each yahoo account, go into them and make sure that Calendars is set to on.

Pages documents created on iPhone will not sync to Mac

When I create a document using Pages on either my iPhone or iPad, it will not sync with Pages on my Mac. However, if I create a document on my Mac and save it to iCloud it will show up on both the iPhone and iPad.
Please advise.

The calendar that you are adding events to must be in the "iCloud" section of the Calendars app, not in something like "On my iPhone". Could this be the problem?
Otherwise be sure both mac and device are connected to the same icloud account. Check Settings>icloud and System Preferences>icloud, and be sure both those pages have Calendars turned on.
If these don't solve things, then to test whether it's the iphone or mac that's the problem, using the mac's safari, log into icloud.com with your account ID and look at the Calendars page. If the events are not listed, then the iphone is not set correctly. If they are there, then the mac is not set correctly.

Events created in iphone don't sync

Hello henmeg
Check out the articles below for troubleshooting calendar syncing. The first relates to if you use iTunes to sync your calendars. The second one deals with if you use iCloud for calendar syncing.

Playlist that I created on IPhone does not sync

I created a playlist on my IPhone. I am using ICloud and sync my Mac and IPad through this service. On both the Mac and the IPad I see the Playlist I created, but its empty. I Switched ITunes Match on and off on the IPad and also Resynced ITunes Match on the Mac. It did not change.
I added a song to the playlist on the IPhone, no change either.
I then tried to add a new song to the Playlist on the IPad (where it was empty). Now the playlis synced, but it has only the one song on the IPhone, all that I had originally created is gone. The difference was maybe that when I added the one song all devices had wifi access. But what is the point of creating a playlist on the go (I was sitting at the airport but without network access) if later I cant sync it. Is there any way to force syncing of playlists?

This sounds very much like the sync is set to the wrong account when you have more than one email account you must set the correct account to be the one to sync to.... in settings mail contacts and calendars check to see which is the default account... and ensure the exchange one is the default account if that is what you want to sync with ref contacts. Also do this in the calendars section at the bottom default calendar. i have this a lot with my directors they add entries into the iphone calendar and not the exchnage caledar and wonder why they are not syncing !!!! you can also see this in calendars itself their is a tab in the top left corner showning which calendars are being used, also each calendar entry will tell you which calendar it is using
