Does icloud sync with ical like mobileme did?

I switched over to icloud. So far the ical has not synced, so the events we have on the ical on the computer have not appeared on the icloud calendar. Does the icloud calendar function sync with the ical function on the computer?

That is the problem, I'm afraid. Officially speaking, Snow Leopard is not compliant with iCloud, though you can set mail up manually to receive your iCloud email.
You may be able to sync your calendars to iCloud by means of an unsupported hack, and there is a convoluted hack which has been reported as working for Address Book (and as not working by others - I've not tried it), but iCloud's other facilities will not work. This page outlines the situation when you migrate to iCloud, including a link to the calendar hack:

There are a couple of third-party solutions which may be of interest.
BusyCal is an iCal-like calendar application with extra facilities: it can sync with the iCloud Calendar while running on Leopard, Snow Leopard or Lion. A single user licence (two machines allowed) is $49.99.
Soho Organizer can sync Calendars and Contacts with iCloud on Leopard, Snow Leopard and Lion. A single user licence (multiple machines allowed) is $99.99.
(I have no connection with either firm.)

HT1296 After downloading iTunes 11, my calendar on my iMac (OS X 10.6.8) does not sync with iCal on my iPad 2. Why is this?

After downloading iTunes 11, my calendar on my iMac (OS X 10.6.8) does not sync with iCal on my iPad 2. Why is this?

Ok, here's what seems to have worked....but will need to monitor to see if this stays "stable".
1) As suggested by King_Penguin in another Discussion thread [apple support > iPad > Using iPad > Discussions] (https://discussions.apple.com/message/15911962#15911962), I turned off iPhoto startup on the iPhone. Then ejected iPhone from USB.
2) Reconnected iPhone via USB. iTunes did not start up. Started up iTunes manually. Went to Summary page for iPhone, unchecked the "open iTunes" option, selected APPLY button. Let iTunes run its application process.
3) Then checked the "open iTunes" option. Selected APPLY button. Got a dialog box asking if I wanted "iTunes Helper" to be installed; selected YES. Let iTunes run its application process. Ejected iPhone. Closed out iTunes. Reconnected iPhone via USB. AND iTunes STARTED UP AUTOMATICALLY (yay!). Let iTunes do some backup and sync'ing. Ejected iPhone. Closed out iTunes.
4) Connected iPad via USB (on computer). AND iTunes STARTED UP AUTOMATICALLY (yay!).
I don't know for sure that the iPhoto "automatic launch" was causing the interference, but it seems like the "uncheck/check" the "open iTunes" option seemed to re-set the problem that I encountered. I don't want to say for sure that this issue is fixed, but it appears to be under control for the moment.
Thanks to everyone for your thoughts and assistance. Maybe this info will help someone else out now that it's in the forums/discussions.

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.

Icloud sync with ical

My iCal isn't syncing with my iCloud calendar. Everything else seems to be working.
Can someone help me with the settings maybe?

you can't use iCloud with 10.6.x.
If you stick with Snow, you can only use iTunes 10.5 to sync the iphone locally with Mac like you did in iOS4. Basically you miss all the icloud features by doing so.

ICloud syncing with ical with Mountain Lion

I have one icloud calendar on one of my two new macs (MBA 2012 + MBP Retina both with Mountain Lion).
I have events in my calendar on one mac - the MBA. It does not sync to iCloud. I imported that calendar to my other mac successfully but when I refreshed it the calendar went blank just like the calendar on iCloud. How can I get iCloud to update itself?
NB It does it ok for mail and contacts/addressbook

Go to System Preferences>iCloud. You should be able to check which documents and settings you want stored in the cloud and you should be able to then automatically push the items to your iPhone.
From iCloud help:
"iCloud stores your content and wirelessly pushes it to your Mac, iOS devices, and PC. iCloud is built into your Mac apps, so they stay up to date with the apps on your other devices set up with iCloud and with the web apps on the iCloud website. Thereʼs no need to dock your iOS device or sync it to your computer."
Does it work for you?

IPhone Calendar Entries No Longer Sync With iCal or MobileMe Account

I've been experiencing this for a few months now, and was hoping someone might have some ideas on how to fix this issue I am having.
Every time I enter a new entry onto my Calendar from my iPhone... those entries do not show up on either my Desktop iCal or Mobile Me account online (this used to work). However... if I enter a new entry on either my desktop or Mobile Me account... those entries do show up on my iPhone.
I do not sync my Contacts or Calendars using iTunes. That is turned off. I sync through MobileMe.
Any help would be appreciated.

On your iPhone, go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
Select your MobileMe account.
Turn Calendars off for over the air syncing. A warning message will be provided indicating your MobileMe online calendars and calendar events will be deleted from your iPhone with an option to keep the calendars on your iPhone or delete from your iPhone. Select Delete from My iPhone.
Follow this by turning Calendars back on for over the air syncing.
Enter a new calendar event on your iPhone to test if the new calendar event shows up with your MobileMe online calendar and with iCal on your Mac.

The calendar on iPhone 6 does not sync with iCal

When I enter information on on my iPhone 6+, the info does not sync to my Mac nor my iPad. The same is true when I enter on Mac and iPad, the info doesn't sync to iPhone 6+

Greetings KevinLo,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that your Mac and iPad are syncing information back and forth as they should, but your iPhone is not syncing with either of them. To troubleshoot this issue, I would suggest working through the steps located in the Troubleshooting on iOS devices section of the attached article.

2.1 iPhone Calendar does not sync with iCal

iPhone 3G 2.1, MacbookPro Leopard 10.5.5, iTunes 8.0 all upgraded this week.
Now, entries that I make from the iPhone will not sync to the iCal, however, entries from iCal syncs to the iPhone just fine. I tried restoring to stock Apple's 2.1 ipsw but it fails to restore every time so I'm stuck with the Pwnaged one I made using Apple's stock 2.1 ipsw and Pwnage 2.1.
Anyone experiences this problem with stock 2.1 or Jailbroken 2.1 ?
Or could it be 10.5.5.'s iCal problem ? (the rss symbol next to my first calendar on iCal is substituted with a warning sign
, and if clicked shows this error: Request encountered an unexpected error (domain AYFTPErrorDomain / code 530).)

Ok,
I figured it out. It is not a bug after all. Somehow I got duplicate calendars in my iCal from multiple backups, so by deleting the duplicates, the original ones appear. So the items been syncing all along, but I just didn't get to see it, since I was looking at the duplicate calendar.

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.

My mobile me calendar does not sync with ical

I recently downloaded the new ical software and now my ical and mobile me calendar do not work. I have reset all information, downloaded (i think) all the latest software and made sure all checks are on.
Any suggestions?

Please always post your System details when you have a question. The upgrade to the new MobileMe calendar produces different results, and different problems, with different versions of OSX.
Snow Leopard: during the upgrade process your iCal calendars should be moved to MobileMe (this can take some time and you have to wait for it to happen). Once done, your iCal reads the calendars from MobileMe so any changes made in either place will be visible immediately. If this has not happened then this Apple Tech Note provides instructions:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3397
Leopard: when the upgrade is completed iCal on Leopard will not be able to see the MobileMe calendars until an additional process is carried out, detailed in this Apple Tech Note:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4330
Tiger: iCal on Tiger cannot read the MobileMe calendars, period. The only workaround is to upgrade to Leopard, or Snow Leopard if possible (Intel Mac required).

Icloud not syncing with Ical on iphone4s

My ical (6 calendars) on my macbook pro is sycing fine when I check my ical on icloud.com
But, ical on my iphone 4s isn't matching what I have on icloud.com
All of my calendars seem to be syncing - except for one. The title of my calendar showing up on the calendar list - but NONE of the events are showing up. They are showing up on my macbook pro, as well as icloud.com - but not on my iphone.
I recently just fixed a battery drain issue with my iphone and realized it was from ical. But, now for some reason its not working right.
I have re-booted my phone, turned off icloud sync with ical multiple times, etc.
Let me know what you think.

Good Morning Mark,
Received your email, however I see that you also have resolved your own problem now. No worries but if it returns or I can help you with anything else please do not hesitate to contact me.

My icloud account does not sync with my iphone 4s. My contacts do not show up on icloud and I do have "contacts" turned on to backup

My icloud account does not sync with my iphone 4S. My contacts do not turn up on icloud and I do have "contacts" turned on in my phone.

Unchecking them won't help, it will only hide them from view. The issue you're running into is that iCloud doesn't sync contacts from non-iCloud accounts like your exchange and Yahoo accounts. In order to sync these with iCloud, you would need to copy them to the iCloud account and then disable contact syncing with these other accounts. (If you didn't disable contacts syncing with these accounts, you would see duplicates of these contacts on your phone -- one from the external account, and one from iCloud.) If you want to do this, do the following:
Go to Settings>iCloud, turn Contacts to Off, choose Delete from My iPhone when prompted (any iCloud contacts will still be in iCloud).
Download the app My Contacts Backup. (If you have more than 500 contacts to transfer from your other accounts you will need the “Pro” version.) Use the app to back up the remaining contacts on your phone (from the other accounts) as a vCard attachment to an email that you send to yourself. Confirm that you have received the email before proceeding to step 3.
Go to Settings>iCloud and turn Contacts back to On.
Go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Default Account (in the Contacts section), and confirm that this is set to iCloud.
Go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars…tap your Yahoo and your exchange account and turn off contacts syncing with these accounts. This will remove the contacts from these accounts from your phone.
Open the My Contacts Backup email and tap the attachment to import the contacts from these accounts back to your phone, and to iCloud. All your contacts should now be in iCloud and be visible on icloud.com.

ICal on my iPhone does not sync with my Mac or iPad. I am using the cloud.

My iCal calendar on my iPhone does not sync with my Mac or iPad. I am on the cloud and every
thing else is syncing. I've looked at preferences and everything looks right...

Welcome to the Apple Community.
First check that all your settings are correct, that calendar syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
Make sure the calendars you are using are in your 'iCloud' account and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud account (you can do this by clicking/tapping the calendar button in the top left corner of the application ), non iCloud calendars will not sync.
If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your calendars are in the iCloud account, you might try unchecking calendar syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling calendar syncing settings.

Calendar does not sync with iCloud

I have an iPhone 4S with the latest iOS. A month ago I started a brand new iCloud calendar (every other were deleted). It was working fine, when I launched the app, it synced in 2-3 seconds. But a few days ago it does not sync with iCloud, there is the running circle in the upper line and nothing happens. The interesting thing is when I try it with Wi-Fi, it works, albeit really slowly, under one minute. I did not change any setup. Has anybody an idea?

Hi Firend,
In my Calendars app, I selected all calendars to be shown. In Settings, Calendars settings are set: New invitation is turned on, Sync is turn all events on, and Calendar Default is set Calendar From My PC.
It is working well for long time.
Hope it will be helpful
