Duplicate events when syncing iphone and OS X 10.5.2

I just updated to Mac OS X 10.5.2. The first time I synced my mac to my iphone after that, all of the events in duplicated in ical and on the iphone. Neither Contacts nor anything else was duplicated. Anyone have an idea on this?

The KB article below deals with that and what you can do to try to repair it.

  • Missing events when syncing iPhone 5 running 7.0.6 to Macbook running os 10.6.8

    I have ios 7.0.6 on my iphone 5. I've noticed recently since the update that the events on my iPhone Calendar does not all sync to iCal on my MacBook running os 10.6.8. Some syncs, but a lot don't (and not calendar-specific either).  I tried rebooting and syncing again, manual back up, selecting one calendar and syncing one and a time, but none worked.  How do I fix this, and is there a way to make my iPhone calendar over-write the calendar in iCal?

    I should mention that I am syncing with USB and not iCloud because I don't want my info on iCloud.  Thanks!!

  • How do i avoid duplicate data when synching iphone and mac book to the cloud?

    When I left my job for the last time I uploaded my Microsoft Outlook Contacts to the Cloud so that I could synch it with my Iphone (which I did).  Now I would like to also synch the Address Book on my Macbook  with the Cloud and my Iphone so I can integrated all of these contacts.  First I do not know if I can do this since my MACbook is a few years old aand I do not see the Cloud Icon anywhere on it.   Second of all I am not sure which area (Cloud, Iphone, or Macbook) take precedence when synching.   Can I lose data?  Does one systems dat over ride the other?  How can I avoid duplicate data?    I am a fairly new Mac user and  love the way things are integrated so I think I should not worry but I need help.  thanks, tdag55

    Hi meadowD,
    If you are looking to remove duplicate files from iTunes, you may find the following article useful (in the most recent versions of iTunes 11, the Display/Show Duplicate Items option has been moved to the View menu):

  • I have many duplicate contacts on my iphone and want to delete them all at once and sync with my mac that has the contacts correct.  Is there a way to delete them all from my iphone?

    I have many duplicate contacts on my iphone and want to delete them all and start over by syncing to my mac's address book.  Is there a way to delete the contacts all at once?  I started icloud and the iphone caused duplicates there also. 

    I have exactly the same problem on my ipad. It is happening on only some contacts but, as with you, when I delete one of the contacts on the ipad, the second ipad contact and the contact on the imac are also deleted. This is even the case when I have differentiated the two contacts on the ipad and can see the one I have deleted on the ipad is not the same one as is then deleted on the imac.

  • HT1296 How do you sync iphone and PC when you have two different iphones/users?

    How do you sync iphone and PC when you have two different iphones/users in house? I just tried to sync my iphone and cancelled sync becauase I saw it was updating my phone with my husband's apps! How do I make it so that sync can distinguish between my and my husband's phone?

    I sync two iPhones and an iPad with one iTunes library on the same computer and each device has different content. Each device has its own sync preferences with iTunes. You can transfer the same music and apps to each device or different music and apps.
    Are you sharing the same Apple ID or iTunes account?

  • Anyone else haveing a problem with appointments not syncing, duplicate appointments when syncing with Outlook? Also, noticed that my primary SMTP disappeared, and I had to re-establish to send e-mail. Apple tech support was worthless.

    Anyone else haveing a problem with appointments not syncing, duplicate appointments when syncing with Outlook? Noticed the problem a couple of days ago.
    Also, noticed that my primary SMTP disappeared, and I had to re-establish to send e-mail.
    Apple tech support was worthless on both issues.

    Hi I am also in the UK, but not with Tiscali and am having the exact same problems. I can also send with wifi, but not 3G. I have tried amending all sorts of settings, including those above and amending the smtp server to the settings for my provider, but all to no avail.
    It is thoroughly frustrating, as I cannot send emails unless I have wifi access.
    Any further suggestions would be very welcome.

  • Eliminate duplicate names when syncing with a car address book

    have i phone 4 and car with bluetooth; car syncs address books through bluetooth; iphone contacts are in smart groups so a name may appear in more than one group; resuts in duplicates in car phone directory; how eliminate

    everything works fine when syncing through itunes because i can select which smart groups to sync with iphone, which in turn syncs with my BMW address book. however, with the introduciton of i cloud, i have not seen anything that says we will still be able to use smart groups in the same fashion. without designating sync with specific cmart groups, fear is that all contacts will be updated via the cloud, which will lead to all contacts, including duplicate contacts, appearing on iphone [and not just the ones from the smart groups], which in turn will lead to duplciate names in BMW address book

  • Syncing iphone and now phone is stuck and wont power off or do anything

    syncing iphone and now phone is stuck and wont power off or do anything

    Reboot the phone:  hold down the power button and the home button at the same time until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "slide to shut down".  When the screen has been completely black for a few minutes, press the power button again.

  • Syncing iphone and can't seem to transfer audiobooks that i have put in a playlist.  Sync menu doesn't show all playlists.  Help

    syncing iphone and can't seem to transfer audiobooks that i have put in a playlist.  Sync menu doesn't show all playlists.  Help

    I have the same problem with podcast playlists.  When I go to the music window in my iPhone devices section, the playlists I have created on my macbook pro in iTunes do not appear as an option to sync with the iPhone.  I know some web radios streams, like the BBC, won't transfer because of compatibility issues, but the playlists of podcasts that I have created consist entirely of podcasts downloaded from the podcasts section on the iTunes Music Store.  They used to show up and sync properly before I upgraded to OS 5.1.1, but now they don't.
    Does anyone have a fix and am I right in surmising that the cause is a glitch in OS 5.1.1?

  • ITunes on PC does not crash when syncing IPhones but crashes halfway through IPad sync

    Itunes and Ipad on latest software iterations.
    When syncing IPhones all perform faultlessly. When I try to sync. my IPad ITunes crashes halfway through the process.
    For the last two weeks I have not been able to remove downloaded TV programmes via ITunes and have had to perform the removal via
    <Settings>General>Usage>Manage storage. One audiobook is not visible on ITunes and cannot be deleted by any method I have tried.
    I am storing all media on a WDCloud drive as I have over 1.3 TBytes of films, TV Programmes and audiobooks.
    I have tried repairing both ITunes and Quicktime to no avail.
    IOS8.1.2
    Itunes

    Hi Brendan
    Thanks for the reply.
    I noticed that the sync crashed at the point where it was downloading either Apps or Video (TV Progs). I tried a 'delete all media' reset yesterday. Problem still present and then I had no media or Apps other than some of the Apps as supplied on initial startup.
    Today I tried a different USB to Lightning lead and at one point I thought it was working with Wi-Fi sync but whilst it didn't crash, the Icons of the Apps that were present on the IPad before the problem occurred are in the same place as before but greyed out and the Apps obviously have not been loaded.
    Funnily enough I did a factory re-set just before you sent this so will post again if this works to help others. I believe this is going to be an IOS 8 problem like so many other IOS 8 problems I have found.
    Best wishes

  • HT2729 what does the "other" category consist of when syncing iPhone

    what does the "other" category consist of when syncing iPhone

    "Other" data is real data that you put on your phone by using the built in apps. It is not music, not videos, not pictures and not App Store app data. It is "OTHER" meaning everything that does not fall into these categories. Such as:
    email messages and attachments
    Reminders
    Calendar entries
    Contacts
    Text messages
    iMessages
    MMS messages and attachments
    Genius data
    Music cover art
    Music library database index (but not the music itself)
    Operating system settings
    Safari cache
    bookmarks
    Game Center status
    Music catalog
    You will find posts from people who said they recovered over 3 GB of space by just deleting old text messages.
    If you want Other to be smaller you will have to keep less data on your phone; delete old MMS and texts, delete old email (especially from the "deleted" folder), clear the cache, eliminate cover art.
    Sometimes "Other" includes data corruption. If you suspect this is a possibility try connecting to iTunes and click the Restore iPhone button. First restore from backup; the Other doesn't get any smaller you can Restore again and set up as New, then add your content back separately from your backup.
