Calender sync creates duplicate entries!!

Everytime an update comes out out for either iphone or itunes, my calender sync creates duplicate entries. One of them is being duplicated for atleast 7 times.
Please guide me to resolve this issue and if there is a feedback for developers, they should try to resolve this issue in future updates.
Thanks.

Hi and welcome to the BlackBerry Forums
I never hear this, but try this.
If you have all the correct data in outlook, my suggestion is wipe the device (all the data is erased) and synch the device again.
To wipe the device go to menu, options, security options, general options, press menu, and wipe handheld.
If I help you with any inquire, thank you for click kudos in my post.
If your issue has been solved, please mark the post was solved.

Do iCloud and Wi-Fi auto sync create duplicates when work same time?

Do iCloud and Wi-Fi auto sync create duplicates when work same time?
I assume iCloud should do same that "Sync with this iPhone over Wi-Fi" in iTunes does.
How do they coexist?

Thanks for reply but somehow desagre as I just drow attention to the iTunes that Sync iCal Calendars indicates:
quote - Your calendars are being synced with iCloud over the air. You can also choose to sync calendars with this computer. this may result in duplicated data showing on your device.

Same about Bookmarks, Mail and Contacts.

Firefox sync creates duplicate search/form history results

I have Firefox synced on 3 PCs and a laptop. Some of the sites I visit, sync creates multiple duplicates in form/search boxes. Two that I know of for sure are outlook/hotmail (the box you enter your e-mail address) and my bank website (where I enter my account name). For example, I would see 2 or 3 options to select the same e-mail address in the dropdown history box. If I go to delete all but one of them, it disappears completely the next time so I have zero options.
This also only happens on some of my computers. Some of them only have one option (which is how it should be).
Minor issue, but it's kind of bothersome.

I don't use any sync add ons. The add ons I use are flash video downloader and custom new tab.
The duplicates are only on my 'other' devices, not my main device (the one I use the most and the one I created my sync account on). I'll have to wait until I get time to go on my other devices to take a screenshot. For now, this is what I mean. Here is the outlook/hotmail sign in page:
http://www.icts.canterbury.ac.nz/graphics/outlook.com%20login%20screen.JPG
When I press the down arrow in the account name box, I see 2-3 entries of the same e-mail address. Again, on my main PC, I would only see one entry of my e-mail address (like I should). This also happens on my bank website.
When I try to delete the duplicates and only keep one entry, the next time I visit the page, they're all gone. So it seems like there's some bug in the search/form history sync.

IPhone sync issue - duplicate entries

Just sent this feedback to Apple. Wondering if others are seeing this.
Have 8Gb iPhone with 1.1.3. Sync Everything but contacts and calendar with iMAC. Sync contacts and calendar with Outlook on winxp PC. When I change the time of a calendar entry on the iPhone. Sync iPhone with iMAC. Then sync with PC. Pick merge in both cases. A duplicate entry is created in Outlook.
If I change the time of a calendar entry on the iPhone but do not sync with the iMAC, then sync with PC no duplicate entry is produced.

Here are a couple of articles from the apple support website that might help out.

Iphone sync creates duplicates

AHHH Itunes syncing confuses me. First it created duplicates tracks on my Iphone when I synced it to my itunes library on my mac pro. Then it deleted, somewhat randomly it appears, music I had purchased on my mac form the itunes library there. I'm obviously not managing the settings regarding syncing very well. How do I delete the duplicated tracks on my Iphone?

Um... that does not contain "duplicates".
It's just a view that shows you everything that's in your other albums and events in one place...

Address book sync creates duplicate contacts imported from .cvs file

Contacts on my iPod are weird--there are duplicate entries for some people, but one of the duplicates contains only email addresses whereas the other has all the remaining info. Everything seems normal in Addresss Book--no duplicates, and all the info. is there. Not all of my contact entris have this this duplication/split info. problem. Those that have the problem were originally imported into Address Book from an Excel .cvs file. I also sync with a Motorola Razr and the same names were duplicated fully on the phone, with each entry having all the phone numbers that should have been synced. Anyone know what's going on or how to fix this?

Icloud sync created duplicate contacts...can't get rid of them

Ever since I began syncing my iPhone via iCloud, multiple entries have popped up in my Contacts. In some cases I'll have 4 or 5 duplicate Contacts when I started with just one. I tried deleting them manually (which took forever) but they just come back.
I tried shutting off iCloud sync and doing it the old way, but I realized that many contacts were missing. (i.e. I must have deleted them from locations other than iCloud, and that's the only place where they reside now.)
I feel stuck. This is very frustrating. iCloud was supposed to make my life easier and it's screwing things up. Any suggestions?
PS - I have an iMac running OS X 10.8.4 and an iPhone 5.

My Contacts Backup Pro has a 4+ rating, but it's up to you if you want to try it or not. If you haven't done so already, you might want to take a look at Apple's KB article on duplicate iCloud contacts: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4147. It's not a very common problem, and can be caused by things like attempting to sync contacts with both iCloud and iTunes.
If you have cleaned up your contacts only to see duplicates reappear on their own, you might need to get iCloud support to help you with this one as it's a rare problem. Then may need to have a senior engineer take a look at your account to determine what's causing it.

Syncing creates duplicate Notes

I backup and sync my iPad and 3G iPhone to my iTunes library on my MacBook Pro. And since my Mail, Contacts and iCal sync wirelessly through my MobileMe account, they work fine. But my Notes app, which syncs via USB cable, has created at least 8 duplicates of each note so far. On my iPhone, iPad and in the Notes in my Mac Mail.
Has anyone else had this issue? And has anyone found a solution?
Thanks in advance.

Count me in. I create notes off line on my iPad (iOS 4.2) and sync only to iTunes by cable. Most notes get duplicated. I also sync an older iPod classic through iTunes.
I also noticed that the audio book I listen to has forgotten where I was when I played it on the iPod after syncing both iPad and iPad yesterday (both have the book on them).
It seems to me this behavior has started with the latest iTunes update(?)

ICloud sync causing duplicate entries...

I have an iPad2 that is configured (authorised) with my work computer. I sync my Contacts, Calendars, Notes from Outlook to my iPad. Please note that my work computer is Windows and is the primary computer I use (it is also synced to my work Blackberry - and that is seamless).
Recently, I purchased a MBP and authorised my iPad onto the MBP. Thereafter, I enabled iCloud on both the MBP as well as the iPad.
Now, when I check Contacts / Calendar on my MBP, I see redundant entries (on My Mac, on ICloud - 3 times).
I have a personal Blackberry that I synced manually (only once thus far) with my MBP (through the BB Desktop Software).
Needless to say, I want just one set of entries so that life is easier.
I feel a bit lost and unable to figure out how to go about this. How do I clean up and have one set of entries across my work computer (and thereby office Blackberry), iPad, MBP and personal Blackberry?
Regards,

ITunes creates duplicate entries

Hi.
I noticed that if I transfer a song to my iPhone, and later add lyrics or a cover (or even give a rate) to that song on my Mac, if I transfer the same song again to the iPhone, iTunes instead of updating the infos of the already existing song, creates a duplicate on the iPhone, that differs from the old one just for the detail I added later on the Mac.
Is that a known issue? Am I the only one experiencing this problem? How can I fix it?

I'm not really sure how unchecked tracks behave if they are synced to the device. I only uncheck things I really don't want to hear as a rule but don't actually want to throw away. E.g. interview tracks on an album. In the main library unchecked tracks will be skipped unless you specifically click on them to play them. Presumably it works the same way on the device, I've just never tested it.

IPhoto-iPhone sync creates duplicate photos

Every time I sync my iphone with iPhoto, it duplicates photos. It's not photos that were taken with the iphone, but photos that I have imported from other sources, such as wallpaper images. Every week or so I go through and delete hundreds of duplicates. It does this even when specify NOT to import duplicates. Is there any way to stop this behavior?
Thanks!

Try deleting the iPhoto preference file - quit iPhoto and delete it ("your user name" ==> library ==> preferences ==> com.apple.iPhoto.plist) launch iPhoto and reset any user preferences you have changed and if you have moved the location of the iPhoto library repoint to it

Facebook/Flickr sync creates duplicates

When syncing albums with Facebook or Flickr, I get duplicates of some picture with almost every sync! Some old photos that had been uploaded before are simply uploaded again. It seems that Aperture "downloads" the already uploaded versions of the pictures and then uploads them again. The worst part: the "downloaded" duplicate of the photo has the wrong date and I would usually delete it, BUT this version has all the comments and tags attached to it on Facebook/Flickr! So the only thing I can do right now is to delete the original from the Facebook album in Aperture and then end up with a photo with wrong date, which never updates when I edit the original in Aperture. I would also have to check for duplicates and delete them on EVERY sync. Is this a bug? Am I doing it the wrong way? How can I solve this?

It works but not before losing some info. Actually, iPhone does not recocgnize the FB's photos anymore as its. I mean, when you go to the original event from which you shared your photos, originally in the "More info" tab you should see that this photo is being shared in FB and you are able to see all the comments, "I like", etc... Now, after erasing the FB account and adding it again, iPhoto download those photos as FB's and doesn't link the internal photo with the FB's ones anymore. In fact, in Facebook tab of iPhoto you will see that the photo has been downloaded from FB. Well, it is better than nothing, but not as good as it should.
Hope you understood something of what I said.

ICloud sync created duplicate iTunesU

After upgrading my iPhone 4 to iOS 7, I was able to access all of my iTunes U courses via iCloud. I then upgraded my MacBook Pro to Mavericks so I could again sync my computer and phone. However, after plugging my phone into the computer one time to charge it (syncing being handled through iCloud), I now have an iCloud duplicate for every iTunes U course I have. There is only a single subfolder for each in the iTunes folder, and deleting any of the iCloud versions deletes the original as well. Can anyone tell me why this happened and let me know what the smartest way is to get rid of the duplicates without either losing the originals or resetting the record of which lectures I've listened to? Thanks.

How do I stop iTunes from creating duplicate entries and sub-folders?????

I am SOOO SICK AND TIRED of iTunes deciding to create sub-folders all the time. I just want to have one big folder and throw all my music into it. I have now spent several weeks trying to re-create my music library after my hard drive crashed, and iTunes keeps messing everything up.
If I let iTunes do what it wants, I end up with two or three copies of each song. If I try to consolidate my files by deleting extra copies of songs, suddenly iTunes can't "find" anything.
When I go looking for the "missing" songs, iTunes creates endless fractal layers of folders within folders.
I AM SICK OF THIS!
I AM ABOUT TO ABANDON ITUNES AND GO BACK TO WINDOWS MEDIA PLAYER.

Why when you have a large number of files it is better to have them in sub-folders???
Unchecking both those options still doesn't stop Itunes from putting files in Artist and Album folders..
The problem I see with putting music files in folders is if you want to move them or change the file properties with just the Operating System they take longer to access. So quicktime seems like something I'd try but....
I'd like to have the option to have my files in one Folder/Directory.
iTunes really wants you to use iTunes to manage the iTunes library. If you use the operating system or third party tools to modify tags, iTunes won't detect the change until it has some reason to access the tag, e.g. during playback. In contrast WMP will sniff out changes in your tags and update itself automatically.
Once you've got your media in iTunes why do you need to access it again at the folder level? As it happens I'm quite obsesive over the structure of my files both logical and physical (see grouping & scripts) but I strongly recommend others to avoid the temptation to waste too much time over the physical layout and leave iTunes to get on with it...
Many other programs have offered choices for folder structure, invalid character replacement etc. over many years without iTunes joining in. I suspect that the developers of iTunes have long since decided that extra choice in this area isn't necessary since "it just works", though by all means drop a line to iTunes Feedback.

Sync creates duplicate email addresses and copies pictures from other contacts

first post...
I recently updated my 8830. When i sync'd for the first time, it had 1300 changes to my 1300 contacts. Each one had a picture change, but not all to the same picture, some were pictures i have downloaded, some were generic pictures. However, I now have the wrong picture for prolly 1290 contacts that didn't have a picture before. The picture only shows up on my phone, not in my WindowsMail where it shows the default picture.
additionally...
some of the changes also duplicated the email address. I have not looked to see how many.
ugggghhhh
Help, please...
Thanks
