Duplicate calendar entries after switching to z10, need to clear my local calendar

Hi,
While transferring my data from a bold 9900 to my new z10 using BB Link I ended up with duplicate calendar entries, one from my account calendar and another from my local. Some of the entries don't show up as reoccurring so it's difficult to remove. How do I clear all the local entries? I tried searching and only found solutions for the previous versions of the desktop software.
Thank you,

Hey z10bbuser,
Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
Thanks for the question.
You can not clear individual databases in BlackBerry 10. You can clear the calendar individually by manual deletion or you can do a security wipe. This is found under Settings>Security & Privacy. Please Note: A Security wipe will erase all data and installed applications on the BlackBerry Z10.
Let me know if you have any more questions.
Cheers.

Well you need to add the email account back to get the calendar entries. Transfer them to another email provider. Then delete the account you don't want.

Duplicate Calendar Entries after Setting up iCloud

I just installed iOS 5 on my iPhone, and upgraded to the latest and greatest OS X Lion on my iMac to use iCloud. Unfortunately, it appears to have created duplicate entries for all of my calendar entries. Rather than syncing my existing iCal calendars, it looks like it created all new 'iCloud' versions of those same calendars so I have double of everything. (For example, before I had 'Home' and 'Work', etc. now I have 'iCloud Home' and 'iCloud Work') This makes no sense to me...am I just supposed to delete my old calendars and just go with the iCloud ones now? Why wouldn't they automatically do that for you if that's the case? Not very intuitive. Has anyone else experienced this problem?
Additionally, from what I can tell, if I create a new entry under one of the iCloud calendars, it WILL show up on my iPhone. However, on my iPhone, I DO NOT have those same 'iCloud Home' calendars listed, just one that says 'All iCloud'. Unfortunately, that means I can't create a new calendar entry that syncs with iCloud. If I create an entry under 'Work' on my iPhone, it DOES NOT sync with iCloud and show up on iCal on my Mac. There is no way this is correct behavior, as that is one of the main benefits of syncinc calendars.
Does anyone have any solutions for these issues? Thank you.

Okay, got it sorted; hopefully this will help others out.
My situation: calendars were working fine on my Mac, iPad 2, iPhone 3GS and iCloud up until Friday evening when I activated my new 4S. Then all heck broke loose, and my calendar events started triplicating (quadrupling, in some cases). The calendars themselves did not, just the events. I believe what caused it is that I restored my 4S from a backup of my 3GS, and didn't turn off iCloud on the 3GS before doing so. So the system got confused and started replicating things like mad. Then I remembered Time Machine!
Here's the solution:
1. Backup jacked-up calendars on your Mac (just in case, you can always go back and manually fix them...gag).
2. Turn off iCloud syncing on your devices (all of them), including your Mac; this will prompt you to delete the data on the devices, and that's okay (take a deep breath...)
3. You should now have no calendar data on any device; it should only reside out on iCloud; verify this by logging into the site and checking
4. In Finder, navigate to <you_user_dir>/Library and make sure you have a Calendars folder (hold Option and click the Go menu and you'll see it the Library folder...they hid it in Lion); don't open the folder, just make sure it's there
5. From the Library folder, enter Time Machine and select a date you know was working (in my case, I had to go back to before Wednesday to make sure iCloud was not in use on my machine at the time, you might have to do the same, depending on when you started using iCloud)
6. Click the magic Restore button in the lower right-hand corner; you'll be fast-forwarded to the same folder in the present, and asked if you want to replace or keep the duplicate items; choose Replace
7. After the copy is done, open iCal; you should see all your events restored to their normal glory
8. Log into the iCloud.com website and nuke all of your calendars; yes, you read that right, kill them all...or you'll be back at square one. Because you have to have at least one calendar, I created one called "junk" and left it in there temporarily
9. Back on your Mac desktop, go to System Preferences and turn on Calendars in the iCloud control panel; if you have iCal open still, you might have a freak-out moment where everything disappears (I did...). Don't panic, this is normal; if you look at the website, you'll see your calendars start appearing there, and shortly the same will hold true for iCal on your Mac
10. Once you've confirmed that everything looks spiffy, delete the "junk" folder on iCloud.com
11. One device at a time (I did my 4S first, then my iPad 2), turn on iCloud for Calendar syncing; just to be careful, let each device finish updating before you turn on the next (it probably doesn't matter, but I'm paranoid at this point).
12. Voila, you should now have all calendars in sync across all your devices, your Mac, and iCloud.com
Hopefully this helps some people out; it's the only way I could get it to work and restore my calendars back to a useable state.
Take care!

Duplicate iCal entries after sync

My sister just bought a Verizon iPhone, and did a sync using iTunes. Her iPhone is fine. But her iCal now has duplicate entries for every date. First off, how do i clear all those out, and second, what do you think went wrong?

How long has she had the iPhone?
Did she sync the iPhone with iTunes right away before manually entering any calendar events on her iPhone, or did she manually enter a number of calendar events on her iPhone before syncing? If the latter, are only the calendar events she manually entered on her iPhone duplicated in iCal on her Mac? If so, how many calendar events was she able to manually enter on her iPhone before syncing with iTunes and iCal since she purchased the iPhone?
If iCal is used - iCal includes calendar events and so does the iPhone before the first sync for this data, a merge prompt should be provided with the first sync for this data. The other option is replacing whatever calendar events are available on the iPhone with what is available in iCal.
First step, reset the sync history on her Mac, which is done via iSync preferences with the iSync application.
Next, remove all duplicate calendar entries in iCal on her Mac. Certainly there can't be that many calendar entries that were manually entered on her iPhone before the first sync with iCal.
When iCal is cleaned up - all duplicates removed, under the Info tab for her iPhone sync preferences with iTunes below the Advanced section at the bottom, select Calendars for replace info on this iPhone. Select Apply followed by a sync.

Iphone 3G makes duplicate contact entries after syncing. I went from about 125 contacts to 1,965. Some contacts are duplicated 30 times! I tried deleting the info and resyncing it. Same problem. Not using mobile me. Syncing with google account.

Duplicate entries after syncing. My phone went from about 125 contacts to 1,965. Some contacts are duplicated 30 times! Tried deleting the contacts and resyncing- same thing. I don't use Mobile me.

Please HELP!!!

Double Calendar Entry after Syncing

After syncing today, I now have double entries on my device. They are all future appointments that were on Outlook, not ones I had entered on the device. When I try to delete one says "appointment deleted externally. Changes will be lost and the viewer closed."
Solved!
Go to Solution.

If you have the Calendar perfect in outlook follow this steps, after this you have the calendar perfect.
If you are having errors in your Calendar on your BlackBerry, and you wish to delete the entire Calendar database on your BlackBerry, follow the directions below. Make certain you have a good copy of your Calendar or Contacts elsewhere, as this procedure will complete delete ALL Calendar entries on your BlackBerry.
1. Open Desktop Manager on your PC.
2. Open up Backup/Restore > Advanced.
3. From Advanced you'll see a split pane screen. The left pane is what is going to be backed up from your device and the right is a list of the currently existing databases.
3. Highlight on the right side your Calendar database and click the arrow in the middle pointing to the left. This will copy the information over and prepare it for back-up.
4. Once the back-up has completed, hit the Clear button at the bottom to erase and clean out the entire Calendar database.
5. After it's finished, it will ask you if you want to save the back-up you've created, say yes and check the device to make sure the calendar has been properly cleared out. Now, resync the necessary contact information and you should be set to go.

PC Suite - Double Calendar entries after canceled ...

I'm doing synchronisation beteen Nokia 6151 and Outlook 2007 via Bluetooth.
The problem has occured with all previous versions of PC Suite.
When the synchronisation is interruppted (e.g. when I'm moving away with my phone away) I get double entries in Outlook and the phone. In Outlook there is a additional space always on the same position. In the phone there is no space. Seems that it occurs just with entries that are containing the German letters ä,ö,ü or some other special characters.
Example: (name was changed)
Outlook:
Geburtstag von Michael Pröabcd
Geburtstag von Mi chael Pröabcd
Phone:
Geburtstag von Michael PröabcdGeburtstag von Michael Pröabcd

I guess the problem happens when I leave Bluetooth range during synchronisation. Only with calendar entries that contain special characters

How do I remove the double calendar entries after upgrading to ios5?

Upgraded to ios5 today on an iPhone 4. I'm now getting double calendar entries. It's not carrying over to my Mac though. Any ideas how to rid my phone of them? Thanks!

I was having the same problem and even started deleting some of the double entries. I went into the "calendars" tab on the top left of the screen inside the calendar app and found that the appointments from my Mac calendars were being displayed along with (scroll down) all the appointments from the iCloud calendars (which are a mirror or backup of the appointments from my Mac). I turned-off the iCloud calendars and the problem was fixed. I guess if I am coordinating appointments from several devices (iPhone and iPad or several family iPhones) I would just leave the iCloud calendars on and turn off my Mac calendars. Otherwise, I'm not sure what's happening here. Any other ideas?

Can't add new calendar entries after losing all calendar entries

I have asked about retrieving lost calendar entries that I had nothing to do with deleting.
Went to ICloud and there are no entries there, either, even though the calendar is turned on in Settings on my IPhone 5s.
I tried adding new entries to the calendar and it will not accept them.
What is up here?????

Hi,
I discovered the same yesterday when I tried to create a calendar item. Also got a weird bug on my iPad where in week / landscape mode I can't swipe right unless I swipe left a little and then get some momentum to swipe right.

Can't make calendar entries after upgrade to OS5

I recently upgraded my iphone 3gs from OS4 to OS5.01. Now I cannot make any calendar entries. The + sign in Calendar is no longer visible. I have seen a few other reports of this in other discussions, but so far no solutions. Is there a fix available for this? If not, can I revert back to OS4.x which worked fine and wait for a future release of OS5?

Problem resolved. Went to Settings > iCloud and turned on Calendar.

How to eliminate duplicate calendar entries after sync with iCloud ?

I just upgraded my iPhone 4 to IOS5 and set up sync through iCloud. Now all my iCal entries appear twice on the iPhone, even though they appear only once on my Mac mini (running Lion).
How do I stop this happening? And how do I get a clean calendar on the iPhone?
Neil

Ok, I solved my own problem. I thought I had unchecked "Sync Calendar" in iTunes on the Mac mini, but it turns out I had not. As soon as I unchecked that box and let the system delete that calendar, all the duplicate entries went away.
Neil

Correct multiple calendar entries after installation of OS upgrade?

After I loaded iOS 5, my calendar on my MAC had duplicate entries. Can anyone help?

I had this issues. When I looked in the iCal preferences it still had my MobileMe account in there. I deleted that and all was well.
Hope this helps.
Best wishes

Double Calendar Entries after sync

Ok so I upgraded to 3.0 for my 1st generation iPod touch, and after the sync (I have mobile me too) I now have two iCal entries for each event. Double events. Now when I open iCal there is only one, but when I open calendar on my iPod touch there are two listing for each event. How can I fix this?

Hopefully my answer is the correct one because this is what I think it is.
Open your calendar app on the touch. Above the month/year should be the words "All Calendars". To the left should be the arrow for Calendars. Touch that. You should see a tab near the top that says "All Calendars" with the arrow pointing to the right.
Just below that should be a new section called "From My Mac" with the calendars listed from iCal. If you scroll down you should now see another section called .Mac. This too should contain all your calendars. If you touch either the "All .Mac" or the "All from My Mac" tab, you should only see the single listings you're looking for.
I don't understand why there should be both sets of calendars. Wouldn't they both be the same?
Hope this helps.

Duplicate ical entries after upgrade to icloud

Hi,
Have no idea why this has happened, but basically I have been syncing using itunes manually via a cable, got the email from Apple to upgrade, went through the process, now its all on icloud, but I have noticed I have dupliate ical entries.
what is the best way to sort this out now?

ok, I just used the app iCal Dupe Deletor and it found 500 dupes, went through and deleted them all
BUT.... when iCal updated to icloud, it just brought them all back from what I can see and they are all there again
whats the best fool-proof way of sorting this?
pleeeease there, so close but yet so far.....

All calendar entries are gone from my laptop since I turned on calendars in iCloud. How do I get them back on the laptop?

I just got my Outlook Calendar onto the iCloud . . . previously it was synced often from the laptop onto the iPhone not as often on the iPad. Almost immediately I saw that the calendars on the pad and phone were working perfectly, so I downloaded the iCloud control panel, went through the steps, and now the laptop Outlook has emptied. I am afraid to sync as the calendar information on the phone and pad might disappear. What do I do?

It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer. Did you not make sure your backup was current before updating?
If not, then you can transfer iTunes purchases from an advice: File>Devices>transfer Purchases
Or redownload them:
Download past purchases - Apple
