Calendar Items Show on iPhone Calendar Then Disappear - Reappear

We have deployed about 25 iPhones in our enterprise. All are running v2.1 and are 3G. One user (on same Exchange server as the rest) cannot see his appointments on his calendar. Upon further review, they are there! BUT, if you look at the month, week or day view they show, then 3-4 seconds later disappear. Then 3-4 seconds later re-appear!! In a loop over and over. We have gone through 3 different iPhones now it happens the same each time.

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.

Calendar items added on iPhone don't show in Outlook

There are four different color calendars showing on my iPhone 3GS. The items I add from my work PC on my Outlook calendar are blue. The items I add to my calendar on the iPhone are red. The red items do not show on my Outlook calendar. I've tried showing only the blue calendar, and adding the item on my iPhone, but it defaults back to the red calendar. How can I get appointments I add from my iPhone to show on my Outlook calendar?

Thank you! I had done a search but didn't find that earlier thread. The calendar items posted from my PC were blue, so I switched my default calendar to the blue calendar. I added a calendar item on my iPhone and it showed up on my calendar as blue. Before it was showing up as red. I'm sure this will be in my Outlook calendar on Monday.

My calendar appointments show for future events, but disappear once I reach the day of the event. So I can see tomorrow's appointments now, but they will be gone tomorrow. Why is this happening? It's on my iPhone and iPad.

For what it's worth, you posted this in 2011, and here in 2014 I am still having this same issue. Over the last two days, I have had to unlock my apple account 8 times. I didn't get any new devices. I haven't initiated a password reset. I didn't forget my password. I set up two factor authentication and have been able to do the unlocking with the key and using a code sent to one of my devices.
That all works.
It's this having to unlock my account every time I go to use any of my devices. And I have many: iMac, iPad, iPad2, iPad mini, iPhone 5s, iPod touch (daughter), and my old iPhone 4 being used as an ipod touch now. They are all synced, and all was working just fine.
I have initiated an incident with Apple (again) but I know they are just going to suggest I change my Apple ID. It's a simple one, and one that I am sure others think is theirs. I don't want to change it. I shouldn't have to. Apple should be able to tell me who is trying to use it, or at least from where.
Thanks for listening,
Melissa

Is there a way to sync outlook calendars with Imac, Ipad, Iphone calendars. I am not running exchange server.

Is there a way to sync outlook calendars with Imac, Ipad, Iphone calendars? I am not running exchange server.

hello,
BlackBerry devices do not support ActiveSync.
you have several ways, from best to less good :
1)
if your company has set up Outlook Web Access, you can use the BIS connection of your device to connect to the Exchange server (email + Address book) through the url of the Outlook Web Access. The OWA needs to be accessible from outside the company.
2)
if your company has setup an external link to the exchange server (can be accessible from outside the company), you can configure your BIS directly to the Exchange server (email only if I recall correctly)
3)
if your company allows it, on your PC you can setup your email account to automatically forward all incoming emails to a third party email (like GMail or Hotmail), and then configure BIS to connect to that email provider. You will get push email. You can then setup a reply-to: field.
4)
use a Windows Mobile phone that has the ActiveSync feature.

Why does my ipod touch show up in iTunes then disappear?

Why does my ipod touch show up in iTunes then disappear? The computer seems to recognize it as a camera device, rather than a mass storage device. Does this have anything to do with the problem? When plugged in, a window pops up asking which photo program you'd like to use, and if you cancel, that's it. Even if you try to open a photo program, and download your photos off of the ipod, it still won't show up in itunes.

Have you had a chance to look at these troubleshooting pages? They may be of some help:
iPod shows up in Windows but not in iTunes

MobileMe calendar not showing on iPhone 4 (4.0.1)

In Calendar on my iPhone 4, my MobileMe calendar is not showing up. It was, up until recently, working fine, but I did a Restore (as a new phone) and when I re-added my MobileMe account, the calendar won't show up at all.
My mail, contacts, notes, etc, are fine, and if I go into settings it definitely says Calendar is "On". I tried turning it off, choose "Delete from iPhone", then turn it back on, no luck. I tried removing my MobileMe account and re-adding, no luck.
My other calendars (Subscribition to my g/f's MobileMe calendar, Birthdays, Exchange, etc), are showing fine.
If I go to: https://www.me.com/calendar/beta/, my MobileMe calendar entries show fine.
Help!
Thanks!

Google calendar appointments not showing on iPhone calendar

All my Google calendar appointments used to show up on my iPhone's calendar. Now they are not showing up on my iphone's calendar. What is interesting is that appointments made prior to last week are showing up on the calendar. However, apppointments made in Google calendar after last week are NOT showing up on my iPhone calendar.
Any suggestions on how to make this work? It used to work and then something strange happened ...

MAGIC happened for me as well.
Here's what I did:
(1) I added the Google calendar using the CALDAV option - i.e., go to Settings --> Mail, Contacts, Calendar and then choose Add Calendar. Here is a link to the instructions I followed:
http://support.google.com/mobile/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=151674&ctx=cb&src=cb &cbid=-1g0evm93kqt46&cbrank=3
Here are the steps that I followed:
To sync with your device, follow these steps:
Open the Settings application on your device's home screen.
Open Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
Select Add Account...
Select Other.
Select Add CalDAV Account.
Enter your account information:
In the Server field, enter [ google.com ]
In the Username field, enter your full Google Account or Google Apps email address.
In the Password field, enter your Google Account or Google Apps password.
In the Description field, enter the name you'd like to appear on the account.
Select Next at the top of your screen.
After you've completed setup, open the Calendar app on your device and syncing will automatically begin.
After this, there were 2 entries in my iphone calendar for every gmail calendar appointment - i.e., each entry appeared twice. So, I deleted the calendar I had just added following the advice above and now everything works.
Strange behavior but I am glad that my gmail calendars are now appearing in my iphone.

Sent Items - Calendar items show blank

GW 2012 SP2
In Sent Items, sent calendar items are listed but all the columns are
blank
If you click on one of the calendar items in the list all the column
data for that 1 item shows up but slightly greyed out
Any ideas on this one ?
Steve

Temporary workaround
Drag all the calendar items into a cabinet folder and then back again
to the Sent items folder - they then display properly
Any new Sent calendar items do not display properly

Thanks,

This calendar item shows itself as every week.

I created a calendar item at work with Outlook, exported it to an .ics and e-mailed it to my home. When I open it with iCal, it shows up as every week. I deleted it, went back to work and tried again.
It is a once per month item at work:

Do you really have Mac OS 10.6.1 as shown in your message or did you upgrade to 10.6.3?
As of 10.6.3, iCal doesn't interpret BYSETPOS correctly when reading from a CalDAV store; possibly you are having the same problem when importing a .ics file.
The issue (for CalDAV) has been mentioned a couple times on this forum, mainly in relation to Zimbra's CalDAV server--you could search. The workaround for the timebeing, in that case, is to downgrade to 10.6.2.

Calendar events show in iPhone but nowhere else

My iphone calendar shows a repeating event that does not appear on my other apple devices. How do I get rid of it, and in general, how do I edit calendar events from my iphone?

Think I may have found my own answer in that icloud doesnt seem compatible with a 3G iphone
Anyone else had this experience ??

Recent problem with syncing calendar items created on iPhone

For a couple of months I had iPhone/Outlook syncing working well, but just recently I noticed that new calendar items created on my PC sync to my iPhone, but calendar items created (or changed) on my iPhone do not appear in my Outlook calendar. I seem to still be able to create contacts on my iPhone and have them appear in Outlook, so this problem is restricted to calendar entries. Since this is recent and there were also recent iTunes/iPhones updates, I am guessing that they are related to this new problem. Has anyone seen anything similar and does anyone have a suggestion?

I am also having issues with Calendar items after the latest patch. It seems that recently added appointments to Outlook 2003 do not replicate to the iPhone. My recurring appointments are fine and I have 3 conflicts which I have reconciled 4-5 times now.
I have repaired my .pst, I have removed my sync point on the iPhone twice.. nothing works!

Outlook Calendar stopped syncing with iPhone Calendar

I deleted a recurrent event on my iPhone and this action appears to have confused the sync capability between my iPhone and MS Outlook Calendar.
Outlook still tries to find the recurrent event on start-up even though it is not shown in Outlook Calendar.
More concerning is that new events and changes in Outlook Calendar are no longer syncing with iPhone Calendar. The time to complete the Calendar sync activity is noticeably longer than any of the other sync actions, which suggests that there is a problem.
I have been through the restore routine in iTunes and also attempted to replace all the Outlook Calendar data on the iPhone using the Advanced facility on the iTunes Info tab.
I appreciate that this may be an Outlook issue but are there any other things that I can try to restore the sync capability between the 2 Calendars.
All other sync functions appear to work ok - I have created and deleted Contact data from both Outlook and iPhone and this works fine.
Grateful for any help!

I'm not sure if this will work for you. It seems every time I research a problem, everyone has a different solution that doesn't work for everyone. (I just spent an hour and a half searching for a solution in various forums.) But this one just worked for me.
I went into iTunes, into the Devices page for my iPhone, then to the Info tab. I unchecked Sync Calendars with Outlook. A pop-up appeared saying, I believe (I didn't write it down) "Do you want to delete previously synced calendars on the iPhone" - or words to that effect. Since I hadn't entered anything directly into the iPhone calendar in a while, I clicked Okay. Then I clicked on Apply (lower right corner of iTunes). The iPhone synced, and all appointments disappeared from the iPhone calendar. I then rechecked Sync Calendars with Outlook, clicked Apply, and the iPhone synced once again - and all my Outlook calendar appointments appeared on the iPhone.
This was, I admit, after having deinstalled all Apple software from my PC and reinstalling it. That didn't work on its own (still couldn't sync calendars), but I don't know for sure whether it had something to do with the success of the de-sync / re-sync.
Good luck. These solutions always seem to be hit-and-miss.

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,
