Duplicate calendar settings on ipad2

Anyone know what settings I have to set in either itunes or on my ipad for me to stop having duplicate calendar settings on my ipad2? I don't have that problem with my contacts, just the calendar. I suspect it has something to do with icloud, but I am not sure. I am on Snow Leopard on an i7 iMac OSX v 10.6.8 and iOS v 5.0.1

Click on the Calendars icon in the upper left corner. You should see something lke this:
If you see a SECOND entry labeled "On My Mac" or something like that, there's your problem. One of the two should be deleted. The ICLOUD set automatically downloads from iCloud whenever you log on. The "On My Mac" set is local to your hard drive but it does sync to iCloud. If you do NOT have any other devices (computers, iPads, iPods, etc.), it does not matter which one you use. If you do have other devices, the "ICLOUD" set is the one that you should use on all devices.

I already tried rebooting, and I tried hooking it up to itunes as well, no luck there either.

Try to reset all settings.
Settings > General > Reset > Reset all Settings. It won't delete your data.
When you say reboot, do you mean you pressed the home and sleep button at the same time until it restarted?

How do I delete a (duplicate) calendar?

I somehow managed to completely duplicate my contacts and calendars from Microsoft Outlook. (I don't use a Mac, or MobilMe or iCal) I don't use the contacts so I deleted them all on my PC within Outlook then synced, but I can't figure out how to get rid of the duplicate calendars.
When I go into Settings - Calendars, this is what I see
From My PC - Calendar
Work (Exchange) - Calendar
They are both the same thing and so whenever I have a calendar reminder, I get the alert twice on my iPod.
Does anyone know how I can get rid of one of these duplicate calendars?
Thanks-
Jenn

I have the exact same issue. The only calendar events that are duplicated are the US Holidays that I subscribed to. This duplication exists only on my iPhone 5S and not my Mac or iPad. I've tried all the other suggestions for removing duplicate calendar events and they don't work. Any ideas?

Why do i have duplicate calendars?

I noticed this morning that I have duplicate calendars showing duplicate events on all of my devices: iMac 2011, MacBook Pro Retina 2014, iPad Air and iPhone 4S. All with latest system updates. Only the calendar for my school events (which I use most actively) shows as duplicated, others remain normal. I followed the instructions on Apple's troubleshooting page: I checked that all relevant services were shown green on their system status page. Then I went to iCloud.com and checked whether on not the calendars and/or events were shown twice there as well. I saw two calendars for my school events by the same name, one with purple color that I remember choosing, and another with blue color that I think is the default color for new calendars, and that which I had not chosen. But check this: The events on iCloud calendars were NOT duplicated, but randomly shared by these two calendars. Meaning some of my school events were purple, some were blue. I have always used only one calendar for my school, the purple one.
Let me recap:
On all my devices: Two school calendars with duplicated events, purple and blue.
On iCloud: Two calendars, purple and blue, but no overlapping school events! Both purple and blue events with no apparent logic afaict.
Now the next step on Apple's page was to contact the telephone support. I submitted a contact request, and after a short while an american lady called me and we started trying to sort things out. I tried my best to explain to her my situation, but perhaps because things were quite complicated, and English not being my native language she might not had understood everything. She asked me if I had tried to delete one of the duplicates. No I had not, because even though on my devices the events were shown twice, on iCloud they WEREN'T, and I didn't want to take the risk of losing anything. I think it was at the moment I was explaining this to her when the line dropped, and she never called back.
Having given up on tech support I decided to try fix this on my on and went back to iCloud. I thought if I change all blue events to purple and then delete the blue calendar, I might not lose any events. So I double-click on a blue event, change the calendar back to the original purple and hit ok. I get an error saying "Couldn't save changes to [event's name]. Your changes to this event couldn't be saved because of a server error. Please try again." I report and hit ok. The event is still blue. I double-click it and try to change the event's calendar again. This time I get an error "Couldn't save changes to [event's name]. Your changes to this event couldn't be saved because it was just deleted by another device." I hit ok, and NOW I see two of the same event, one in blue and one in purple. Well at least the event is now supposedly where it should be. I repeat this annoying procedure to all blue events. Then I try to delete the wicked blue calendar, praying I won't lose anything important. Of course I get an error: "Couldn't save changes to [calendar's name]. Your changes to this calendar couldn't be saved because it was just updated by another device." So I go and try again, it worked for the events. And this time the calendar is gone!
But wait. The events of the purple calendar are now duplicated. So I only got rid of the calendar clone, but I still have events shown twice.
I'm getting way too tired to work on this any futher. Why is iCloud acting like this?

Highlight a song. Press command+r to reveal the song in Finder. Do that for the duplicate. Are they in the same location? You can also check this by getting info on a file and checking its location in the summary info, then check for the other file.
If you have a file in a folder that itunes doesn't control and then add the file to itunes it will place a cpy in the itunes folder when you add the file, leaving the original. Not sure how you ended up with two in itunes but I'd need to know the details of your preference settings.
I don't know about the rest. I have never bought music from ITMS.

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.

Ios 5.0.1 duplicate calendar entries

I've just updated to ios 5.0.1 on my iphone 4. Now I get these strange duplicate calendar entries appearing on my iphone calendar, which aren't present at all in iCal on my mac???. I've never had these issues before and I thought that it may have something to do with iCloud, however I'm running OS X 10.6.4 on my laptop and I don't have iCloud settings to edit (I know I require OS X Lion for this to be available) via my settings on my mac.
Now to the I've list:
I've tried deleting the items manually on my iPhone (delete one event or all future instances), but they just don't go.
I've tried deleting my iCloud account altogether on my iPhone, however when I resync via iTunes all they same duplicate events return to my phone???
I've tried ticking the "Advanced/Replace information on this iPhone/Calendars" and then syncing again, but the same duplicate items return.
I've searched forum post after forum post and I can't find a solution to this problem.
I've removed most of the remaining hair through sheer frustration...
Basically the Calendar on my iPhone is totally useless now.
I won't be updating to OS X Lion as all of my audio software/hardware, of which I rely on on a daily basis, works perfectly with 10.6.4
Does anyone have a fix for this?

Oops! spoke too soon!
All seemed to be working fine, but after adding a test item into my calendar on my iPhone, all the duplicate entries magically appeared again.???
So now the annoying phantom duplicate entries are on my iPhone, but strangely not on my calendar on the iCloud.com web site and NOT on my calendar on my Mac.
I don't think I can waste anymore time stuffing around with this. Paper diary for me again I think...
I'm very disappointed as I was very much looking forward to shared calendars!
I hope Apple comes up with a fix soon.
Here's hoping...

HT1349 My iPhone has duplicate calendar entries

My iphone has duplicate calendar entries what do I do to get rid of it and what did I do to get it , so i dont do that again!!!

Are you using iCloud? If so, go to Settings/iCloud and turn off Calendar. Select to delete the Calendar info. Wait a minute and then turn Calendar back on.

How do I get rid of duplicate calendar entries in my notifications?

I managed to get rid of all my duplicate calendar entries on my calendar. I unchecked all but the two calendars I use.
The problem is that when I go to my notifications screen, under "Calendar", it still shows all my entries like three times. How do I get rid of this? It takes up all the realestate on my notifications.

Sounds like your syncing Calendars over the air with iCloud, as well as with a supported Calendar application on your computer. Doing both will duplicate your entries, so do one or the other, not both.

Changing the calendar settings: Sunday as the first day of the week

Dear Masters of SAP universe,
In ECC6.0, I am using a LIS info-structure with the period split set to week.
I would like to know how can I change the calendar settings in order to consider Sunday as the first day of the week, instead of Monday.
For example:
A sales order created on Dec 12th creates the record 201049 in the info structure S900 - SPWOC.
I would like to have it as 201050, where 50 is the currently week in the system.
I already checked OSS notes and the transaction SCAL for customizing. But I did not find a solution this issue.
Your help is highly appreciated!

hi,
this seems to be a calendar issue.
please check for OSS also - 1158474.

Calendar Settings

I recently returned my Droid and got an iPhone. I like the iPhone, but I've quickly noticed it is short on tweaking and extra settings.
My biggest concern right now is the lack of calendar settings. For example, I want to set my calendar so that there is an automatic alert created for every event I make. Also, I want to be able to tap the time and create an event on the calendar without having to add it and select the time. I don't like the views of the calendar either. But there are no options to change these things.
Can someone tell me a way to tweak these settings or can you recommend a better calendar app?
Thank you.

What you see and have with the Calendar app is what you get.
If these options and settings that you want were available, they would be available.

Duplicate calendars need to be merged, please help

i have duplicate calendars (ie: travel, travel) each one contains different events. this happened because of some sync issues when i tried to use gmail instead of my .mac account.
i need to merge these 2 calendars together because i dont' want to loose any data.
please help!?

Select one of the calendars. From the File menu choose 'Export...' then 'Export...'; from the sub-menu. This will create an .ics file at the location chosen in the Export dialog.
From the File menu choose 'Import...' then 'Import...' from the sub-menu. A navigation pane will open: navigate to and choose your exported .ics file.
iCal will ask you where to import this to. Click the drop-down menu and select the calendar you want to add these events to. Import.
The events from the first calendar will be added to the second. Be aware that you cannot reverse this process.

8330 and duplicate calendar entries

For some reason I am getting duplicate calendar entries (of the same event) from multiple email addresses. How to I stop this? I'm using Google sync (working fine) but I get entries from my Hotmail, another local ISP and Juno. And Juno doesn't offer a calendar that I know of. 8330 Curve on US Cellular. Some times just 2 dups sometimes 3. I've cleared the Facebook calendar app on the 8330 (that is my Juno account) But I don't use the Hotmail calendar and the local ISP email doesn't offer a calendar function.

Hi Ridgeroader,
Welcome to BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
It sounds like the calendar invitations are being received in different device calendars. Each email account integrated on your BlackBerry has a calendar associated with it. If your receive an invitation in one email account and accept it, it will be stored in the associated calendar on your device. This KB article and this blog post should provide more information on dealing with multiple device calendars: http://bbry.lv/cBptUW and http://bbry.lv/bozTNY

Duplicate calendar entries - but not related to any kind of sync

I went on holiday for 3 weeks and during that time my iPod touch discharged completely. When I came back and charged it up again I saw that it had reset its date back to what I presume is the factory default of 01 January 1970. I set the date and time to the current date and time - and then discovered that all my MONTHLY and YEARLY repeating calendar entries (but not the WEEKLY ones) have all been duplicated. This is not the result of any kind of sync up since (following a complete system rebuild following a virus attack) I have not yet reinstalled iTunes on my PC and I have not knowingly synced with Outlook because I almost never use it. If I delete an entry that has been duplicated then BOTH entries are deleted. Has anyone seen this behaviour and can tell me how I can remove the duplicate entries? I have looked for posts relating to duplicate calendar entries but they all deal with syncing-related problems whereas mine is not. Thanks.

I have a similar issue. I bought an ipod touch last week and today I synced my entourage contacts, and address book. The address book entries are fine, but I have duplicates on my calendar. Now, its not duplicating per day, its duplicating the previous or next day. For instance, I have a birthday listed for today, it will also show for yesterday or tomorrow. What is causing this? I've checked the calendar on entourage and ical and both show correctly. (ical copies items from entourage)

Subscribing to multiple ICS web calendars results in duplicate calendar msg

I'm trying to subscribe to multiple ICS/iCal calendars that are published by a local hockey league on their web site. The link is actually to a PHP script that uses a query string parameter to determine which team's calendar you want. But when I attempt to subscribe to more than one of these in iCal, it says it thinks it's the same calendar! But when I do them each separately, they work fine. I can't figure out why and would appreciate tips, advice, etc from others who may have encountered similar situations.
The specific URLs I am using are:
http://stats.siahl.org/team-cal.php?team=664&format=iCal
http://stats.siahl.org/team-cal.php?team=316&format=iCal
http://stats.siahl.org/team-cal.php?team=31&format=iCal
For now, I'm having to save these to .ics files and import them manually into iCal. This ***** because they won't auto-refresh... but I need to find a solution to this bogus "duplicate calendar" message...
Any help is appreciated.

cj,
If a subscribed holiday calendar is current and events are displayed far enough into the future you can use iCal>File>Export for one of the subscriptions. Then use iCal>File>Import on the previously exported file. When you import, be sure to create an unique name for the calendar. Now you can delete the subscription, and you can edit/delete the calendar, and rename the freshly imported calendar.
