Duplicate calendars

duplicates in calendar just showed up one day, how do I get rid of them?

Have you recently upgraded to iCloud? It might be showing your iCloud calender as well as your MobileMe calender (which are probably identical). Un-sync from MobileMe and see if that helps.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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...

  • TS3999 Duplicate calendar entries in iCloud

  • Cannot push back new calendar events to Mac, duplicate calendars, more...

    I'm having tons of issues with iCal and my iPhone since 2.1. New events entered on my iPhone show up in MobileMe online, but not on my Mac, ever. Duplicate calendars are starting to show up in my iPhone, and now NONE of my calendars are showing up in MobileMe (all my events are still there though). What gives Apple?

    Apple, have you even read this post? MobileMe/iPhone service is terrible, simply awful. New events in my laptop calendar sometimes don't show up on my iPhone, or from my iPhone to my laptop, events are showing up twice other times, calendars are being duplicated, this is a total mess. I need this calendar to keep track of meetings and appointments, and at this rate, I simply cannot trust the iPhone to do this right.
    I remember when Apple products "Just Worked". Now, they simply don't work well at all.

  • How do I remove duplicate calendars from my iPod Touch?

    I just synced iCal with my iPod after removing mobile me and now I have duplicate calendars on my iPod Touch. How can I remove these calendars? My iPod has one set of calendars that is called "On my iPod Touch" and another set (exactly the same) called "untitled account". I'd like to remove the untitled account and I would like to know if there's something I should change to avoid the duplication in the future. Thanks.

    If the calendar still exists in iCal, delete it there and then sync your iPod. That should eliminate the extra calendar(s).
    If that doesn't do it, make sure iCal is setup the way you want it and then do the following:
    1. With your iPod recognized by iTunes, click on the Info tab in iTunes.
    2. Scroll to the bottom of the page
    3. Check the box on the application that you want to overwrite data on the iPod
    4. Sync your iPod
    That box will not stay checked so you don't need to worry about accidently doing it again.

  • Duplicate calendar items

    all of a sudden (probably after this latest release), i am getting duplicate calendar items in my iphone on certain events. from what i can tell, if i create an event in ical and sync the iphone, the event is put on the phone correctly. if i then edit the event in ical and re-sync, it puts a duplicate event with the new information on the iphone, instead of just updating the event. it's highly annoying and i don't remember it ever being like this. anyone know how to fix this??

    I had this problem months ago on my iPod Touch (roughly when this dormant thread was started, before the 2.0 update, I think). With that update, it went away, but has recently resurfaced, perhaps with the 2.1 update or perhaps since then. I didn't notice the resurfacing of the problem until this morning, but that doesn't necessarily mean anything.
    The symptoms: When I create a calendar event in iCal, it syncs properly to my iPod. When I create a calendar event on the iPod, it does not sync to iCal. When I modify or delete an iCal-created event on my iPod, the event is not modified in iCal, and the original event is copied from iCal to the iPod, so I wind up with duplicate events (or the deleted event reappears).
    This morning, I overwrote all calendar data on my iPod, to no avail. When I first had the problem months ago, I reset the sync history and then reset the whole iPod, also to no avail; I haven't tried those more drastic steps recently.
    Is anyone else still/again having similar problems? Any solutions besides telling Apple and waiting for a fix?

  • Multiple duplicate calendars

    Hey - can anyone help! I’m going crazy here!
    I have a G5, and iPhone and an iPad and I’ve been all day trying to sort out a syncing problem. I followed all the Knowledgebase articles, and even chatted to an Apple MobileMe expert - so now I need to turn to the Apple community for help!
    When MobileMe (MM from here on) syncs with iPad and iPhone I get six copies of each calendar, although iCal on my Mac only has one of each.
    I’ve tried deleting all the calendars, trashing caches and pref files, deleting and reinstating MM accounts on the iPad.
    Address Book however sync’s fine - all devices show the same data. So why is calendars showing six copies of the same info?
    It’s driving me nuts!
    Thanx, Andy

    Didn't have the duplicate Help menu problem, but in case this helps, here's what worked for me:
    1- In the MobileMe preference panel, switch off Synchronize with MobileMe (in the Sync tab) and Sign Out of MobileMe account (Account tab).
    2- Restore ~/Library/Calendars folder from Time Machine to the state it was in just prior to installing Snow Leopard.
    3- In iCal, delete the duplicate calendars, leaving only the 'correct' one. (Determining which one to keep can be tricky: in my case I deleted the incomplete 'duplicate' calendars, where some appointment entries were missing).
    4- In the MobileMe preference panel, sign back into to MobileMe (Account tab) and switch Synchronize with MobileMe: Automatically (in the Sync tab) back on.
    5- In the Sync tab of the MobileMe preference panel, click Advanced… at the bottom right. In the resulting sheet, select any existing entry of your newly upgraded Mac's name and click Stop Syncing Computer…, and confirm that you wish to Unregister. (This clears out the old baggage.)
    6- Then click Reset Sync Data… bottom left of the sheet, then select Replace: Calendars. The direction of replacement is important: choose to overwrite MobileMe with your computer.
    That's how it worked for me. All seems to work nicely now. Note that in the last step, it seems counter-intuitive to me to overwrite a nice, clean MobileMe calendar with the slightly dubious copy, rescued from duplicates, on my Mac. But I could not get the overwrite to work from MobileMe to my Mac. I had to sync from my Mac to MobileMe.
    Hope this helps someone… I'm sure there's a cleaner, more elegant way to resolve this problem, but there you go

  • ICal on iPad: please explain how to use the duplicate calendars

    I am traveling with my iPad and cannot get on my computer. I want to add calendar events that will sync to MMe. I have checked off the calendars for @me.com. Sometimes the iPad duplicate switches on. I assume that i have this so i can see if i need to what is really on the iPad ND what is really on mobile me in case i don't have wi fi access. However Apple does not explain to us why so that we could understand our own systems. We are left to guess and stab in the dark. I want to add items that will go over to mobile me and to my phone. Do i add them in to the calendar that is on the ipad and then it will automatically sync the events?
    I just edited some items that had previously been synced to mobile me. Those items are showing up synced to my phone so i know they went to mobile me. However i added some new items that went into the calendar on my iPad and those are not syncing (I wonder why apple has this odd system set up?)
    So is there something i don't know about entering events in my iPad? Why would there be a dublicTe calendar kept that does not sync to the rest?
    Please help! I can't go to my computer to reset hints for now i just have to know how to input events correctly into iPad so they will sync to mobile me and my phone. I have previously fine through resetting hints with mobile me support so it all should be set up correctly.
    Thanks
