Contacts and Calendar won't sync with Outlook

It seems that ever since the last upgrade to iTunes (8.1.1) my contacts and calendar won't sync.
I've tried all the steps in http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1692 up to and including uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes but, nothing has worked.
Any help would be appreciated.

The contacts and calendar do sync into another user account but _only some of the records_.
ZoneAlarm. And there is no difference whether it is running or not.
One odd thing:
In order to try to find which record(s) might be causing the problem I sorted my calendar on the "Date Created" field hoping to be able to go back in history and see exactly when things went wrong. Much to my surprise I found that the 13 most recent records did not sync to my iPhone. Then the next 2 did. Then the next 3 did not. Then 1 did. etc.

Contacts and calendars won't sync with Windows 7 PC

Just had to buy a new pc (only because my MacBook got stolen) and I set up the iCloud on the machine but my calendars and contacts will not sync with Outlook 2010. Bookmarks, pictures will, but contacts and calendars say they cannot start the operation because of an unexpected error. Any help out there?

Contacts and calendar have stopped syncing with latest updates

Hello!
iPhone 4S / iOS 7.0.4 and Outlook 2010 - contacts and calendar have stopped syncing - phone syncs, but data doesn't update - Genuis bar in store couldn't help me.
Anyone else with this problem? Do you have a solution?
iCloud is not a option due to limited WIFI access.
Thank you
Valerie

Do you use a Mac? If so, see the note in the third paragraph:

Contacts and calendar won't sync.

Itunes page says contacts and calendar sync over the air thru Mobile mel. I don't use Mobile Me! Not since that colossal introduction nearly froze my phone. How do I get it changed back to a hard sync through itunes? And, Why can't I send mail using wifi only (with edge turned off) Works on my buddy's phone but not mine!

If you have deleted your MM email account from your iPhone and you have synced your iPhone with iTunes since - the email account settings should no longer be included with your iPhone's backup.
Sync your iPhone with iTunes followed by restoring your iPhone with iTunes from your iPhone's backup. This must be followed by a sync. If your MM email account settings are restored with your iPhone's backup, this means something is wrong with your iPhone's backup. You can check this before syncing. Check under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences to see if syncing direct with the Address Book and iCal on your Mac via the iTunes sync process is available again.
Did you transfer the email account settings for your Cox account from your Mac to your iPhone via the iTunes sync process? If so and after restoring your iPhone with iTunes from your iPhone's backup doesn't resolve the sending problem with your Cox account, delete the account from your iPhone and try manually recreating the account. If this works, be sure to deselect transferring the account settings from your Mac to your iPhone via the iTunes sync process or any changes made when manually recreating the account on your iPhone will be overwritten.

Contacts and calendar won't sync to iphone

So I just updated to 2.1, and then let the iphone sync. I noticed that changes that I made on iCal were not syncing to my iPhone, so I checked the boxes at the bottom of the info scree that said "replace information" for contacts and calendar. All of my contacts and calendars then disappeared from my iPhone, and I was flashed the "inconsistencies in your sync..." message. I had seen this message a couple days ago when I edited somethings on iCal but I didn't think anything of it.
So with no contacts or calendars I tried resyncing to no avail. I have restored the iPhone twice and still I get that dialogue box, and no contacts or calendar events synched to my iPhone.
Please help me...I don't know why this is happening.

yup, tried that to no avail. I made a new user account and the syncing works fine on that account but still doesn't work on my original account. Its not an iphone issue, but a user issue. I've been on the phone with apple care and they have no idea right now how to fix this. I will update if anything gets fixed. All help is welcome...thanks.

How to insure that contacts and calendar are NOT synced with ICloud?

Hello,
I do not understand, why it is not possible anymore to sync your contacts and calendar data between your mac book and your mobile devices using USB cable.
I also heard that with Maverick and Itunes 11.1.2 you can not sync anything using USB anymore, is that true?
Why is it not possible to let the customer decide how to sync their data? Why not leaving both options?
In case it is true that with Maverick and Itunes 11.1.2 you are not able to sync using USB anymore, does anybody know a good app to sync your photos and address data between your computer and mobile devices?
How can I insure that my contacts and calendar data are NOT automatically synced with ICloud?
Yesterday I synced some Photos from my macbook to my IPad and wondered why I had the photos twice. I realized that my IPad had ICloud enabled, after disabling ICloud one picture folder (Photostream) was gone. What do do to avoid that my MacBook is sending Photos to ICloud?
However, when I opened ICloud today, I did not find photos, but I found some address data from my MacBook in the Cloud.
I do not want to have my contacts and calendar data anywhere else on a server.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks Hark

Connect your phone to your computer using the USB power cable that you charge your phone with.
Launch iTunes, it will go thru the normal sync back up progress bar thing at the top, let it finish.
Then
double click on the phone in the left side bar then click INFO at the top of that pane, it will allow you select what you want to sync (contacts,calendar,etc) make your selections and click apply, then click sync. There buttons along the top for different functions (Movies, Apps, etc) just make sure that you do not have anything checked (like your whole music library) that will not fit on the phone.

My Mac Calendar won't sync with Outlook Exchange Calendar

I have a MacBook Air running OS X Yosemite 10.10.1
I have set up an account for email, contacts, calendar and reminders to sync with my company's Microsoft Exchange server 2007
Everything works fine apart from the Calendar. If I enter an appointment in the Calendar on my mac it syncs with Exchange. However if I add an entry on my iphone or via Outlook it doesn't appear on my Calendar.
There is a message that comes up in Calendar saying "There was an error attempting to send your changes to the exchange server"
Does anyone else have this problem?

I feel your pain! I too am having an issue with the icloud sync for calendars on my iphone 5. I have an ipad, iphone5 and macbook pro retina. My macbook and ipad are in perfect sync with the icloud. My iphone WAS in sync but somehow is now not in sync. Changing a TIME on an existing event in the calendar on my mac changes it in the cloud and on my ipad but NOT on my iphone5. I have checked all settings to be sure nothing magically changed but everything is set up properly as far as I can tell. If I delete the event and add it back - IT WORKS. The iphone5 just doesn't seem to accept a TIME CHANGE for an existing event. Any suggestions?

Task manager and calendar App that syncs with Outlook

Hi all,
I've been looking for a very user-friendly task manager and calendar (some sort of an organizer) that synchs with Outlook. The regular iphone 3g calendar only has calendar function and the warnings don't have the snooze function. I found SmartTasks but it seems in only synchs with Google Calendar. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance, best regards,
Miguel Caldeira Proenca

I've searched through the app store and tested several calendar apps but none seem to work. I don't even see an "add-on" to the resident calendar app that adds some color or themes. Has anybody found anything to make the calendar appearance a bit spiffier?

Calendar Will Not Sync With Outlook

Calendar won't sync with Outlook 2003. Tasks, memos, and contacts will though. Under default services, it lists Facebook as my Calendar (CICAL). What do I need to do to change this so that my calendar syncs properly?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I think I have the very same problem, but I'm not techno-savy enough to understand the solution. Can you elaborate more? Like where do I find "Default Services"? And, where do I find "CICAL"? Please, make my day. Thanks

Contacts and Caendar won't sync - how to turn off "over the air" syncing?

I have an 2nd gen 8GB Touch, a Macbook and use iTunes 8.0.1. I do not have Wi-Fi at home. I also have a dot-Mac (or Mobile Me, I guess) account.
When I first got the Touch, I opted in the iTunes Info section to sync both calendar and contacts, and everything came over fine. However, all of that somehow disappeared, and no amount of re-syncing will help. Now, my Info tab indicates that my contacts and calendars are being synced with my iPod over the air - I do not have the option of checking any boxes there. I have tried every permutation of settings in the iPod, but this doesn't change anything. I also cannot find any helpful help screens anywhere (including on this forum, where I have already searched).
Could someone please advise me how I can regain the checkboxes so my contacts and calendar information syncs when I connect to the Macbook and use iTunes to sync everything else (photos, music and movies all work fine).
TIA
BobF

This sounds like a MobileMe problem; or, rather, the solution will be found there. Try this page:

My Outlook calendar won't sync with my ipod touch and vice versa. Wherever I input the info is where it stays. Contacts and notes sync but not calendar.

My iPod Calendar won't sync with my Outlook Calendar and vice versa. Wherever I input the information is where it stays. My contacts and notes sync just fine. Please help. Very frustrated. It used to work just fine. I just upgraded to iTunes 10.2 version.

I have the same problem since I updated to iTunes 10.2 Sue (I think). For me this was somewhere in January.
I wasn't sure iTunes was the issue, until I read your post. I tested syncing a note, and that works fine.
My 2nd generation Ipod Touch runs on IOS 4.2.1. It won't upgrade to 4.3.
Possibly the synchonisation between iTunes 10.2 and IOS 4.2.1 doesn't work correctly.
Has somebody else solved this isue? I use both calendars (on iPod Touch and on PC) for work and private matters.
Otherwise I have to uninstall iTunes 10.2 and downgrade to 10.2.

My iphone won't sync with outlook. Same problem with calendar entries

contacts added to my iphone 4 won't sync with outlook 2003 running on windows 7. Same problem with calendar entries.

same here. Have you received any answers?

"contacts and calendars cannot be synced" I just want my music, I already have contacts and calendars.

I got an iPhone 5c a little under a month ago, and haven't been able to put music on it since then. iTunes keeps trying to sync contacts and calendars, which I already have in place on the phone (via iCloud). However, when my I plugged my moms brand new 5c up to put music on it, it worked perfectly! I've compared our settings, and everything is the same. Please tell me what to do! I have the latest updates on both devices, and iTunes.

With my fingers crossed I uninstalled the updated iTunes that led to the problem. Then went to the iTunes.com site to download the full version. After the install was finished I connected the iPod and it detected and synced the iPod without any further issues. I don't get the error, Contacts and calendars cannot be synced on the iPod "%1$S", any more.
