Event created on iPhone does not appear in iCal

When I create an event on my phone and sync, it does not appear in iCal. Events created on my laptop sync without issue. Contacts sync both ways, but calendar events do not go from the phone to the computer. I am not using MobileMe to sync, simply using the USB cable.
I have tried the following to resolve my issues:
* Make sure iTunes and iPhone are up to date
* Make sure all calendars are set to sync with iTunes
* Try different USB ports on the laptop
* Restart phone and computer
* Reset sync history in iSync and re-sync
* Follow directions in this support article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1627 to do a full reset of sync history and re-sync
Yet after trying all of those solutions, I still cannot sync events created on my phone to my laptop. Does anyone out there know of anything else I can try that might work?
Thank you,
Cameron

After a trip to the genius bar, I found how to solve this problem, at least for me:
0) Plug in iPhone
1) Start iCal
2) Export all calendars (File -> Export)
3) Quit iCal
4) Delete all calendars from ~/Library/Calendars
5) Start iCal
6) Import all exported calendars
7) Start iTunes, configure syncing to overwrite calendars on phone
8) Sync iPhone

  • Events created on iPhone don't appear in iCal on my computer...

    ...but events created on the computer do appear on the iPhone.  I'm using iCloud and other functions (e.g. Photo Stream) work fine.  I've browsed the community for suggestions, but keep ending up reading articles from 2007 or 2008.  Thanks in advance for your assistance!

    MacBook Pro (15-inch Late 2008), Mac OS X (10.7.3), 2.66 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 4 GB mem
    OS 10.7.3
    I was able to solve the problem through a combination of two suggestions in the troubleshooting advice provided in the like you sent:  turning off and then back on the Calendars box in System Preferences/iCloud, then restarting the computer. Works fine now, but it's scary to watch all of your calendar events disappear after you uncheck that box!
    Thanks!

  • Reminders on iphone does not appear in ical

    Reminders opening page on my iphone also called reminders does not appear in my list called reminders in ical
    also I cannot change the name of a reminders list, it keeps reverting to the original name

    You can see them in ICal on the right column but just like a List not as well as in Iphone or I Cal
    So question,,,,,,How can I see my reminders in my Mac in the same way I see them in my iPad and iPhone, I is easier to work with reminders in Ipad and Iphone rather to see them like a list on ICal?

  • Calendar events created on iphone do not sync to ical...

    I have created several events on my iphone calendar then watched them disappear when performing a sync with my laptop. I have gone to itunes, hi-lited my iphone (when mounted) then gone to "info" tab in itunes, I've selected "home" where it says "Put new events created on this iphone into the calendar" (pull down menu)
    None of these phone-created-events end up in "home" or "work" or any of my other calendars. My laptop ical overrides anything on the phone and deletes it. Is there something else I should be checking or setting? I have the most current version of iphone software that's been offered (1.1.4). I would like to be able to put an event in there and have the sync work both ways.

    Never mind. For some reason it just worked. I guess I really meant it this time.

  • THE SIM CARD INSERTED IN THIS IPHONE DOES NOT APPEAR TO BE SUPPORTED.....

    Hello. I bought on Dec. 17th 2007 at Orange shop in Beausoleil (south France) an iPhone with the option of unlocking the Sim (100 Euro plus). I followed all instructions. Everything was perfect, on Dec. 24th I was able to unlock the iPhone and used with Orange sim, MonacoTelecom sim and Vodafone sim. BUT the iPhone had a problem: when in sleep mode it did't received calls. So Afer 24 hours I stopped to use, UNSAFE. After Christmas holidays I called Apple assistance, they send me UPS and I returned iPhone to Apple (Jan. 4th 2008). I received a NEW iPhone on Jan. 8th 2008, VERY RUSH. Perfect service, I thought (...making terrible error...). The iPhone was LOCKED and I wasn't able to use. Now starts all the problems and for this reason I'm writing.
    I called Apple and Orange many times. Orange didn't received the documents from Apple for the changing of IMEI and Serial, for them I had the first iPhone. After many cals finally I asked Apple to send something official for the changing.
    ....Days goes on and on.......
    Every day two times I called Orange, but evert time I received different versions of my situation. Everyday I tried to restore the iPhone but still simlocked.
    On Jan.15th after a meeting with a lawyer I decided to make pression to Apple: infact I returned them an unlocked iPhone and I received back a locked one.
    I finally was able to speak with a "supervisor" (Mr. F...) and he tried to solve the problem.
    On Jan. 16th I spoke with another "supervisor" (Mr. J...) and he told me to make another time the restore, because they changed the firmware.
    From now I tried to make the restore many times with Orange sim. Everything seems to go well but when I put another sim on iTunes there is a white page with:
    "THE SIM CARD INSERTED IN THIS IPHONE DOES NOT APPEAR TO BE SUPPORTED. Only compatible SIM cards from a supported Carrier may be used to activate iPhone. Please etc etc....".
    So the iphone is locked!!! Maybe is country locked, I don't know.
    Incredible, unbelievable.
    From Apple they told me to wait someting from US, but until now ..... nothing, I received no news from Apple.
    The bad situation is that after more than 30 days after the buy I am not able to use the hardware I bought!
    I hope that someone from Apple can read this post (sorry if is so long, but with this details I think that in Apple can understand the problem).
    I send in warranty an hardware with certain features that I payed to Apple and I received back it with different features.
    That's not serious.
    After many days, next week I think to go by legal means if Apple France is'nt able to solve the issue.
    Many thanks if someone from Apple read my post.
    Many thanks if someone help me.

    But who has to make another unlock? Orange told me that for them is ok and the phone is unlocked. I read on other pages that Apple has a world-database with Imei numbers. So seems Apple can also do the unlock, even for the fact that they returned me a locked phone, different from the one I sent them. The warranty is with Apple, I forgot to warite in my first post that first of all on Janauary I went to Orange shop where I bought the iPhone but they told me for every problem is Apple that has to solve.

    This iPhone is not currently setup to work with carrier you're attempting to use. Please insert another SIM card from a supported carrier or request that this iPhone be unlocked.

    It sounds like you or someone else hacked the phone to unlock it. Updating it locked it to the original carrier.
    How did you unlock it? The ONLY legitimate way is to ask the carrier it is locked to to unlock it. Any other way requires hacking or jailbreaking the phone.

  • Iphone does not appear in itunes. _ALL_ recommended steps were taken to no avail

    I'm using windows 7 pro 64-bit, itunes 10.3.1.  I have an iphone 3gs running ios v. 4.3.3.  All software and drivers are up-to-date on my computer.
    When I open itunes and plug in my iphone, itunes hangs for roughly two solid minutes.  After which, my iphone does not appear in itunes.  The same thing happens if I reverse the order and plug in my iphone before opening itunes.
    I have read and followed all and I mean all the instructions in multiple articles on the apple support site to try and resolve the issue, and nothing has fixed the problem.  My impression is that this is a bug in the latest itunes release since the problem started after updating to the latest version of itunes and did not occur previously.  Nothing else changed with either my computer or my iphone since then.  In all other ways, my computer, all USB devices connected to it, and all other software installed on it function perfectly.
    Here are the things I have done that DO NOT RESOLVE MY PROBLEM:
    - restart apple mobile device service and verify it is configured correctly
    - restart ipod service and verify it is configured correctly
    - restart my computer
    - reset my iphone
    - verify that my USB drivers are up-to-date and all USB ports are functioning correctly
    - verify that my iphone DOES correctly appear in windows explorer and the device manager
    - verify that my security software (norton 360) is updated to the latest version
    For the record I am not running any third-party phone software.
    Here is the only thing I have found that works, however, it works ONLY for the first time I open itunes afterwards.  After syncing ONE TIME, the next time I open itunes, the problem comes back exactly like before.
    - completely uninstall, and then reinstall all apple software in precise accordance with instructions given on the support page http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923
    I honestly don't expect anyone to have a solution to this issue, but I will be thrilled if there is one.  I am posting primarily to see if anyone else is experiencing the same problem, and hopefully to gain the attention of a developer who can hopefully institute a fix.

    Sounds like a ruined iTunes install iTunes require a number of services running if an overzealosch firewall or rights settings or "optimisme" program stopped any of those what you exp happens

    The SIM card inserted in this iPhone does not appear to be supported.
    The SIM card that you currently have installed in this iPhone is from a carrier that is not supported under the activation policy that is currently assigned by the activation server. This is not a hardware issue with the iPhone. Please insert another SIM card from a supported carrier or request that this iPhone be unlocked by your carrier. Please contact Apple for more information.

    Or if you've recently got the phone unlocked then you'll need to connect it to  itunes and then do a fresh restore to unlock it ,although for most users simply connecting to itunes for few seconds did the trick.

  • Downloaded audio book on my iphone does not appear in itunes library and i cannot update iOS without transfering it to library

    Downloaded audio book to my iphone does not appear in my itunes library and i cannot update iOS without transfering it to library

    You should be able to copy it over to your computer's iTunes via File > Devices > Transfer Purchases.
    Audiobooks are a one-time only download from the store, so you may want to take a backup copy of it when you've copied it over to your computer

  • Error: sim card inserted in this iphone does not appear to be supported.

    Hi all--
    Bought an iPhone 5 off ebay. It's totally wiped, and when I go to activate, I get a "Sim Not Valid" error on the phone, and "sim card inserted in this iphone does not appear to be supported" in iTunes.
    It is an AT&T phone, and has an AT&T sim in it. Talked to AT&T, and they said it just needed to be unlocked. I got the seller to go through that process. However, the last step for unlocking is:
    1. Open iTunes on your Mac or PC and verify that you have Internet connectivity.
    2. Ensure the original SIM card that came with this device is inserted in your iPhone.
    3. Connect your iPhone using the dock connector to USB cable that came with your iPhone.
    4. Backup and restore your iPhone using iTunes.
    I assume ideally, the seller was supposed to still have the phone and complete the unlock himself. But I have the phone and cannot backup and restore because I get the sim error in iTunes which blocks me from doing anything as far as I can tell.
    Am I missing a step? Is there any way for me to complete the unlock, or do anything at all to get this phone working even as an iPod, other than sending it back to the seller?
    Thanks.
    Chris

    Then return the phone to the seller and get your money back.
    The symptoms you describe are typical of a phone that was hacked or jailbroken to unlock it at some point. Very often after doing so, when the phone is restored, it becomes completely unable to activate even on the carrier it was originally locked to.
