Calendar sync problem.... SOLUTION!!  It worked for me!!

Hi folks. My head has many briuses from banning it on the desk but I may have a fix that will restore some of the calendar probs we have had with update 9.1.79
I have a Ph.D (poke and hope diploma - Joke!!) in computing, but I made this work.
I have got my calendar to re-sync and lost the message of "Mobile Sync has stopped working" by doing the following.
I called support and they gave me a link to remove ALL contents that i-tunes installs and there are many including Bonjour etc..
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1925
Do exactly as it says in the drop down menus and remove EVERYTHING. I had to restart my PC in safe mode (press F8 at start up) to get at a couple of files that needed the administrators permission to delete.
I then restarted and had to delete the file itunes library.itl (I actually dragged it to my desk top from the directory C:/my name/Music/itunes
This was because I installed the earlier version of itunes (9.0.1) and it could not read this file so i removed it.
I then downloaded itunes version 9.0.1 and installed it.
Started up itunes and did a sync and it worked!!!
I hope this works for some one else. If so, go into settings and dissable Get automatic updates until Uncle Mac fixes the bug!!
Good luck,
J.

Tried and it doesn't work for me.

  • Calendar sync problem: "the default service for your device's calendar has changed..."

    When I go to sync, this window pops up:  "The default service for your device's 'Calendar' has changed since the last time you synchronized.  Click OK to use your new default service and combine your data, which might duplicate some entries.  Click Cancel to stop...."
    I haven't changed a thing.  What's going on?  I don't want to get duplicate entries.

    Yes, I sync with Outlook.  From what I understand, your default service should be your e-mail address for both mail & calendar.Spell Check

  • I fixed my Calendar syncing problems with Outlook

    I have fixed my "1 day out" syncing with Outlook.
    The solution below worked for me, but if you are unsure or a bit dubious then please take advice first....I'm far from a computor genius !!
    When I first downloaded 9.1.1.12 mine didn't work either for all the current calendar entries, but it did work for anything new.
    So here's what I did.
    Firstly if you have your i-Tunes set to "auto sync" when you connect your i-Phone then disable that. That's very important. Then in Outlook create a new calendar and just name it "calendar 2" or something. The new calendar will be completely blank. Then connect your i-Phone as normal. When you have the syncing page on i-Tunes in front of you click on the "info" tab and scroll down to the calendar section. Here you have the option to sync all calendars or selected calendars. After a while the new calendar you have created should appear in the calendar section. Check the box that says "sync selected calendars" and then check the box next to the newly created calendar, making sure the original calendar is not checked. Then scroll down further to the advanced area of the page where you can select information to be synced and check the calendar box. This area allows one way syncing from Outlook to the i-Phone. Once this is done click "apply" and the phone will start to sync. When finished your i-Phone calendar will be completely blank. Now go back to Outlook and "copy" your original calendar into the new calendar. Once this is done go back to the sync section in i-Tunes and repeat the sync again making sure the new calendar is selected only to sync and the calendar box in the advanced section is checked also. This will then sync your calendar back to your i-Phone correctly, well at least it all worked for me. Ideally it's best to then delete the original calendar from Outlook leaving only the newly created one there but I'm not sure it's always possible to delete the original one so just make sure you always use the new one and that when syncing you always have the new calendar selected.
    I hope this helps some of you if you're still having problems.
    My PC uses Microsoft Vista with Office 2003 and I have an i-Phone 3.1.3

    Originally all of Apple products were intended for use with Mac computers. Macs have default program - iCal to sync calendars. Windows default program is ironically Microsoft Outlook. There couple more options in iTunes for
    calendar sync, but those need to be chosen and not default.
    In your particular situation since you don't have outlook anymore, you don't need to make any changes. No outlook - no sync. Apple way - no user interference nessesary.
    Please do remember that everyting I write is just my opinion, nothing more or less.

  • KT6 Delta Rebooting Issues - Solution that Worked for me

    Hi
    Solution that worked for me: Enabled SATA Controller which takes a while for it to detect SATA Drive and giving time for the system to warm up.  I don't get that annoying message asking to restart Windows in safe mode, normal, & etc.  
    I've been having this rebooting problem lately. I tried everything from BIOS settings, checking drivers for problems, checking Windows XP, Power Supply, Checking Motherboard,and etc. I installed a fresh copy of Windows but still had that rebooting problem. When I got this MB 3 months ago, it was working perfectly and had no rebooting problmes. But its now fall in my place and the temp a bit cold.
    I read about the temperature issue (20C). I disbaled the SATA controller because i don't have a SATA Drive.  
    Hope this will help others as well and for MSI to Fix the Problem.

  • Thinkpad yoga - limited connection - intel 7260AC (with solution that worked for me)

    limited connection issue
    i'm new to the forum, sorry for bad english
    i've a brand new rhinkpad yoga, with win 8.1 and intel ac 7260 wifi card
    first of all the solution that worked for me is moving from WEP to WPA2 protection with the router
    the problem was that i wasn't able to connect to internet using wifi
    i got "limited connection" and i wasn't able to access internet at all
    windows validated the connection and obtained an ip, but it wasn't then unable to access internet at all, i also wasn't able to access or ping the router.
    i also got an error stating the lack of the default gateway, but this one seems to be resolved by windows check and repair procedures
    my router had wep protection, and i used it with no issues with 2 android smartphones, an android tablet, a mac and a linux system, and in the past with windows 7 and vista systems.
    i've searched for solution all the night and checked everything
    - system and driver update (via usb thetering)
    - various command to reset network configuration
    - unchecking selected check box in energy saving tab inside wireless property panel
    but the only one solution that worked was the move from WEP to WPA2
    hope this helps
    my first post, be patient...

    From what I gathered, about the Y2P Limited Wifi issue, this problem is solved by configurating a router to meet the computer needs. Once done, to fully implement this fix, it is adviced  that you carry this configured router and use it every where you go, like a power cord. When you go to Statbuck in the monrining, be sure they hook up your router and return it when you leave. Alternitively, this can be done at other venues like the airport, hotel, school, work, etc. 
    I really don't know why people keep wasteing their time. Lenovo has chimed in and said this is a router issue. That said, the aformentioned advice is a formulated fix.  Shall we put an end to thiese topics and get the forum moving again past the wifi issues? Like said many times, this issue has been fixed using the above reccomendation.

  • Airtunes audio drop out solution that worked for me! :)

    setup is DSL modem, AEBS main base station (software v5.6), AE (software v6.2), AE is in WDS mode as a remote base station. I am running OSX 10.4.3, and all software (itunes, etc) is updated current as of 6Nov2005.
    using airport admin utility, i set both base stations to "g only" and still had audio drop outs. Then I left both of them on g only and set both of them on channel 5, (was on channel 10 before.) no airtunes drop outs!!
    I have been audio drop-out free for a few days now and am cautiously optimistic- enough to post my solution. hope it works for you, too!

  • The calendar sync is recently not working correctly, not display "All events" but it only displays the last six months for my individual entries. My repeating entires do go back further, though. How do I fix?

    I have an iPad 5.1.1. The calendar sync has started to not work correctly. I have it checked "All events," but it only displays the last two months for my individual entries. My repeating entires do go back further, though. How do I fix?

    HI Jason269. Thanks for your reply, however I wrote that I already have "All events" checked. If All Events is checked and it doesn't diaplay all events, how do I fix? It seems this is a common issue, as I have read many others on here state the same problem.
    I believe my problem occurred when I synced my iMac calendar to my iPad calendar using yahoo. Yesterday, I unsynced them on my iMac controls. When I checked my iPad calendar, all of my old entries reappeared - but only for five seconds and disappeared again. So, the data is saved and still there but cannot be displayed, even when I have All events checked. In fact, it only shows my individual entries for the last two months, but does show all my recurring entries. If I switched to last six months, I will see everything for the last six months. If I switch back to all events, it is only for the last two months.
    As I mentioned, others on here have expressed exactly the same issue, including the two month example and having used yahoo.
    For legal purposes, I need to be able to use the information from my indidual calendar entries in an upcoming court case. So I really need to fix this ASAP!

  • A possible solution to FCP X memory problems - it is working for me so far

    I think I may have found a way to prevent FCP from gobbling up all available memory (and bring my mac to its knees).
    The idea came to me from a post by Tony Reidsma  in this thread: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3770230?start=0&tstart=0
    He pointed to this page regarding memory usage in FCP X and Motion: http://bradbell.tv/filmmaking/improving-ram-performance-in-final-cut-pro-x/
    The above page,mentions a preference setting that exists in Motion but "not in FCP X" - the setting for a "cache percentage".
    This is supposed to determine how much of the available memory Motion should retain for caching content (or so I gather).
    Sure enough, this preference is not there visibly in FCP X, but since FCP X and Motion share a common foundation, I thought it might be there anyway.
    So after looking into the plist files in XCode, I found the name of this preference setting and used the defaults command in Terminal.
    I have been throwing everything at it for a day now and it seems to be working well, so I thought I'd share.
    Here is the relevant defaults command (NOTE: use this in Terminal when FCP X is NOT running):
            defaults write com.apple.FinalCut OZPreferenceManager::CachePercentage -int 20
    (this seems leave free about 20% of the ram available when FCP X starts; I have experimented with different values, and apparently the higher the number, the more free memory is untouched)
    I have 15 applications running in MacBook Pro (with 8GB Ram), for hours, and no memory problems (and no need to "purge"). And FCP X and all other applications have not shown any of the slowdowns typical of low memory situations.
    NOTE: While I have not experienced any negative effects, I have no internal knowledge of the software and no guarantee that this is effective or harmless.
    One can revert the above setting by typing (or pasting) the following in Terminal (again, with FCP X NOT running):
        defaults delete com.apple.FinalCut OZPreferenceManager::CachePercentage
    If any of you try this and it does or does not work for you, I'd appreciate if you post your results back here.

    Hey Luis, and everyone else.
    I just tried your terminal script, and it has completely cured the sluggish problem with FCPX. Thank you, thank you , thank you!!.
    I am working in a pretty large project, and now is flowing like a champ. Even skimmin is on point.
    The project is 60 GB in size and I didnt create optimized media or used Proxy, so is working out of the RAW data, and boy must I say is flowing.
    Again thank you dude.
    PS: to you all out there, if you jump in a large project, I found that by making compund clip over compound clip helps the speed of the whole project. Example: I am braking down scenes in to compound clips, and portions of the scenes in to more compund clips, that has created a fast flow to go in an out of.

  • Strange Calendar sync problem after migrating to iOS5

    Hello all,
    I posted my problem as an "me too" reply to somebody else's thread but think it got a bit lost there.
    Since I can't solve this problem I decided to make a new thread.
    The problem:
    After upgrading my iPhone4 to iOS5 I have a strange calendar syncing issue such that existing entries from one calendar (I've got two, see below) are duplicated on the other .... but only on the iPhone, not on the calendar server (Lotus Notes) itself!
    As I couldn't find a normal solution to this problem (already removed the complete Lotus Notes traveler account from my iPhone and reinstalled it again, to no use: the duplicates pop up again) I finally decided to start removing the duplicate entries on my phone. To my surprise however they popup again!!!!!
    I added a new entry to the original calender to see whether that one would popup in the other as well but this didn't happen.
    It looks to me it must be something wrong on my iPhone as the "duplicates" do not show up in the calender database on the server (using Lotus Notes PC client) nor its replicas.
    The configuration:
    I sync with two calendars on my iPhone:
    - gmail calendar for my private
    - lotus notes server (traveler exchange) for my work.
    The gmail calender also syncs with my desktop client (outlook 2010) via a small application "gSyncit".
    This all worked like a charm on iOS4.
    No matter where I modified, deleted or added entries (not only calendar, also contacts and mail) it all stayed perfectly in sync!
    Does anybody out here noticed the same and/or has a solution to this?
    BTW: I haven't activated iCloud for the calendar/mail/contacts (yet) ...

    OK,
    I found out what was wrong myself.
    In the end it turned out that it had nothing to do with the iOS5 upgrade itself.
    In case somebody else stumbles accross this very same problem, here's what was going on:
    - Within the latest lotus notes client (on PC) the user has the possibility to display (read-only) external calendar contents (e.g. google's calendar).
    - When setting this up you need to supply your external calendar's login/password information and next to that
    - also have the possibility to select "View this calendar when offline or on a mobile device"
    It was this setting (which I probably accidentally enabled) causing the "issue". Deselecting this option made my duplicate entries disappear on my phone.

  • MFE - Calendar Sync Problems

    Hi All
    Exchange 2007 environment, published thru ISA to OMA.
    Email sync is working fine, but calendar sync causes problems
     The calendar sync status is either in progress, or it says 57 discarded, and skips to sync contacts.
    I'm running the latest (2.9) version, on an E71. Any advice?
    Thanks
    Karl

    Well, I faced this problem with E63. The reason seem to be some complexity with Exchange/Outlook entries that Nokia Calendar cannot handle. In that cases the following devices/software acted as:
    Nokia E61i with Mail For Exchange refused to sync such entries and Calendar works.
    HTC Touch Viva with ActiveSync (Microsoft product inder Windows Mobile) refused to sync such entries and Calendar works.
    Nokia E63 (mine now) with Road Sync refused to sync such entries and Calendar works.
    Nokia E63 (mine now) with Mail For Exchange syncs successfully, but Calendar fails to work.
    Well, all first three cases is the one with the first mesage (E71). It has no solution as I think. The fourth one is the case with the mesage I reply to, for that, I think that Nokia need to check it out.

  • Calendar Sync Problem: Cannot write to outlook calendar using DM

    All syncing works fine between my DM version 6.0.1.18 and my Blackberry Bold 9700, EXCEPT that I cannot sync entries FROM my device calendar to Outlook 2007... The other way works. BB software is version 5.0.0.593 and it is BIS not BES.
    I have tried renaming/deleting Intellisync folder; the configuration on the DM is set to TWO-WAY. I have also reset the configuration on the DM. Every time I want to sync a new calendar entry on my Device, the message box says that it's reading the device entries and then processing them - no problem. Then it starts reading my Outlook entries, no problem. Then it processes Device entries again and highlights entries that need conflict resolution. After inputing required conflict treatment, I get the Confirm Calendar Edits window. So far great! I press Accept, and then get the Processing Device Calendar again...after it gets to the end, a new window appears and when it gets to record X I get the dreaded popup message "Operation terminated unexpectedly" error. If I delete the offending entry on my BB Device, the error disappears. However, until this problem is solved, I effectively only have one way calendar syncing: From Outlook to Device.
    Can somebody please help??
    Thanks.

    Hello flittda,
    Does the error occur when you synchronize your Contacts or just the Calendar?
    Delete the Intellisync folder from your computer:
    If you
    are using Microsoft Windows® XP, go to C:\Documents and Settings\<User
    Folder>\Application Data\Research In
    Motion\BlackBerry\Intellisync.
     If you
    are using Microsoft Windows Vista™, go to C:\Users\<User
    Name>\AppData\Roaming\Research In Motion\BlackBerry\Intellisync.
    If you still get the error , enable advanced logging as shown in KB01451 and look delete the Calendar entry which could be the cause of the error.
    Let me know how you make out.
    Thanks!

  • Outlook 2003 + iPhone calendar sync problem solved

    Here is how I solved my sync problem. Seems a lot of people have the same problem here with Outlook sync suddenly not working after it worked fine for a long time.
    I've had Outlook 2003 calendar sync with my iPhone for a few month without any problem, but a few days ago the sync suddenly stopped without any error message. iTunes Diagnostic found no problem and I followed all the steps that Apple outlines to fix the problem but nothing worked (TS2776).
    As Apple asked to, I created a new user account on my Windows machine and setup a few test calendar entries to sync with my iPhone. That all worked fine.
    So I did what Apple doesn't tell you, and I copied my original Outlook Data file (.PST) over to my new user account and tried to sync that one. Now this didn't work. So I knew the problem lies somewhere in my PST file.
    I have then tried to create a new one from scratch in my original Windows account, and copy all the data over. Again, it didn't work. So I emptied the file again, and copied all my calendar entries over to the new PST file in batches (first 10, then another 10, etc).
    What I found at the end is that one single calendar entry I created a few days ago caused my sync to stop working. Once I removed this entry, everything worked fine again. Don't ask me what was wrong with it (I made a backup just in case Apple wants to see it), but now everything works again.
    If you want to save some time to find which one it is, you may start deleting entries that you created just recently before it stopped working.
    Hope that helps.

    Hi im having the same problem. I use outlook 2003 on windows xp and until recently my sync (using usb) was working fine. Now it would seem that calendar items are no longer syncing. can you give any further details of the calendar entry which was causing your problem? im wondering if it was added on a certain date perhaps.
    I am running the inbox repair tool to see if my pst file has any problems but would appreciate any other help in the mean time.
    Cheers
