Events added to calendar on iPhone not showing up in iCal

Hello,
I'm having a (new) problem syncing my calendars. If I add an event on my iPhone, it simply doesn't show up on my iCal. I've tried resetting the sync history but that hasn't fixed it. Any ideas? This is very annoying!

rastro2,
Open "Settings" on the iPhone>Mail, Contacts, Calendars, Bookmarks>Accounts>your MobileMe account and turn off "Calendars," when prompted delete data, and wait two minutes, then turn "Calendars" back on. When asked merge the data, make that choice, and wait patiently. If you are able, I recommend using a Wi-Fi connection to make the change.
Hopefully that will correct the problem.
;~)

Events created in iPhone not showing up in iCal

The reason for the problem is that Tiger and Leopard used different places to store iCal calendar information only clearing out BOTH and starting fresh will ensure no old calendars from Tiger get in to corrupt the new Leopard ones.
Tiger stored calendars in: Users/<Username>/Library/Application Support/ical
Leopard stores calendars in: Users/<Username>/Library/Calendars
Remove both these folders and quiet both iCal and iTunes.
Then just to be sure reset the preferences in iSync. Launch iSync>prefs>reset sync history. This may grey out as it thinks its done or not needed. This greying out happens if there are no devices listed in iSync, if so relaunch iSync and you get a short time to try again. iSync looks like its not syncing anything if you are only using .Mac and iPhone. This is because iSync previously controlled syncing .Mac but this is now in System Preferences and iphone syncing is done through iTunes in fact it iSync is still keeping a log behind the scenes, Its this log of sync history that needs to be reset.
Then open iCal and iTunes, iCal will remake the default calendars Home and Work. Which you can rename.
I had no old calendars to export and I'm not sure that bringing old ones back in will not cause problems again, for me starting fresh was the best way. If you can't then try exporting your current calendars and then do the clear out, bring them back in at the end. Hopefully they will go into the new Leopard location the old Tiger one will not be recreated.
Success! Thanks to Apple in Cork.

Google events added on iPhone not showing up on iCal, Google events added in iCal not showing up on iPhone

I have been having this problem consistently for a few months. If I delete my Google account from my phone, I can then re-enter it, and events will synch. A few times, I have also had to delete my Google account from my Air. Anybody else seen (and, hopefully, fixed) this? Needless to say, an up-to-date calendar is one of the more critical things for my iPhone to have.

By "iCal" do you mean Calendar on your Mac? If so, I'd suggest you stop using that entirely and just use the Google calendar web interface and the Calendar app on your phone. I have absolutely no problems with that set up (one iPhone, two iPads and an MBA). The Calendar program on the Mac just adds a layer of complexity to the process.

Suddenly, events entered in Calendar on iPhone are not showing up in iCal or iCloud

Until late November, i had an iPhone 4s with iOS 5.   Then i got an iPhone 6 with iOS 8. As previously, when i would enter an event in the Calendar, that data would also show up in my iCal calendar and on my iCloud calendar, until the last couple of days. Now, new entries are not showing up on iCal or iCloud. I encountered the problem that my iPhone, 64G, is being backed up to the iCloud and after two backups, taking up 2.4G each, my 5G of iCloud storage was used up. I speculated that this was why my phone data stopped syncing to the other calendars on the computer and cloud, though i did not know for sure. I deleted one of the two back ups and am about to delete the other one. I have never had this problem of running out of iCloud storage on my other phone. According to Settings>iCloud>Storage, i had 89MB. But since i have deleted one of the 2.4G backups (which was "incomplete") my new entries are still not showing up in iCal and on the iCloud.
Is there a way to get this feature to work again?
Are there things i can check or uncheck in settings or in Calendar or ??   that will get this to work well as it did in iOS 5?

ckuan - thank you for replying. i am really desperate for help. I have wasted so much time on this. I was on hold with Apple support for a long time and then had a call with a rep that lasted over an hour but he didn't know anything about issues of these kinds. i was put on hold a lot while he consulted. He did agree that the data wasn't syncing from iPhone to iCloud and iCal because the iCloud storage was used up by the iPhone back ups. So he advised deleting one of them. I now have 2.4G of storage on iCloud. Am i wrong to think that should be enough?   I still ave the original complete back up (2.4g) undeleted, in case there some reason that i need it. i don't like deleting things i don't have a good understanding of.
Following your instructions, i went to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars. I then scrolled down to Calendars and at the bottom, i see where it says Default Calendar. This raised new questions for me which i will ask you/others now:
On the Default Calendar page, there is a heading that says iCloud and there is a second heading that says my gmail email address, [email protected]. Under the iCloud heading, there is a list of 8 "calendars," called Work, Family, Pets, Home, etc. Under the gmail address heading, there is only one option listed, which is my gmail username. When i went to the Default Calendar option, as i think you suggested if i understood you right, i found that the Calendar with the checkmark next to it was the gmail user name, under the gmail address heading. Presumably, this is the same setting i had on my 4s with iOS 5.
I wanted to follow your instruction to change this to iCloud as Default Calendar. but the only option i have is to choose only one of those 8 "calendars," either Work, or Pets, or Home, etc. Does this make sense?   The only reason i know for having these many different calendars was to give different colors to the different event categories. I didn't really want them to be separate calendars. i just wanted to use the color coding for type of event in my overall calendar.
I don't know why this is suddenly so complicated and confusing, after working fine for the first two or three weeks i've had the new iPhone. Suddenly, when i enter events in Calendar, it's not reaching the cloud. If this is because my gmail and/or google user name was checked as the default calendar, that was not a setting i would've recently changed. I never would have set my iPhone to only use one of the iCloud sub-calendars at my default calendars.
But right now, per your instructions, i have checked Settings>Mail.Contacts,Calendars>Calendars>Default Calendar to iCloud>Home (Home being one of my 8 sub-calendars). When i look on the Mail,Contacts,Calendars setting list, under Default calendar, it now says Home, instead of my gmail username. Just to be clear, there is no way to check iCloud on the Default Calendar page. i have tried checking it, but it's just a somewhat grayed out heading and doesn't respond to attempts to check it, it's not offered as a Calendar option. Only the various sub-calendars are offered a default calendar options, under the grayed out iCloud heading. So, i selected Home, for no particular reason. i have lots of entries under different categories.
Here is the result:   still no new entries showed up in iCloud or iCal. In January, a couple of days ago, i entered three dental appointments, for which i have always used Health as what i thought was a category (not a separate "calendar"). The color of Health events is green. The color of Home events is Blue. After changing the Default Calendar from gmail email address>user name to iCloud>Home (blue), the dental appointment in January did not show up. But when i went into the first dental appointment event>edit and changed the "calendar" to Home, it then showed up on the calendar. The other two dental appointments which were still Health did not show up.
Then, i changed the first dental appointment that is showing up in January back to Health (green). It still shows up, now, colored green, even though Home/blue is now my default calendar. But the two other dental appointments are not showing up.
Does this mean if want to use my Calendar and have the data backed up in iCloud and iCal, from now on, i need to use only one sub calendar and give up using the different color codes because iOS 8 is forcing me to choose only one sub calendar to be my whole calendar, and the only way to use different colors for different categories of events would be to first enter it as the default sub calendar (such as dental appointment>Home), and then go back and edit it into the correct sub calendar (such as changing it to the correct category, Health) to show the correct one instead of the "default" one?
Why was this made so much more difficult and complicated than it used to be? It was working normally up until a couple of days ago.
What i need, if possible, is info on what setting i can use to go back to using my gmail address user name as my default calendar, so that it can just work properly as it did before. It seems ridiculous that i am forced by iCloud to use a sub category as my default calendar and everything that isn't entered as that subcategory will not be processed in iCloud. Why does iCloud provide these sub calendar category options at all, if it's going to force people to only be able to use one of them?
What am i missing here?
Is there a setting that would enable combining all subcategories as one calendar, called iCloud, but where i could still use the different colors for different categories?

My Iphone calendar events are not showing up in iCal when I sync? Syncing has not been an issue till today?

My Iphone calendar events are not showing up in iCal when I sync? Syncing has not been an issue till today?

I found this tip from a 2011 discussion on the same topic.
Open iCal and backup or export your entries. Make a note of the fie name and location, you're going to need them in a minute. Once your backup/export is completed, close the iCal application.
Open Finder and remove everything inside the "Username/Library/Calendars" folder. For instance, if your username is "Joe", then move everything inside the "Joe/Library/Calendars" folder.
Open the iSync application. It's located in the "/Applications/" folder. Once iSync is opened, go into the iSync Preferences (iSync -> Preferences) and push/click the "Reset Sync History" button. Then, close the iSync application.
Re-Open the iCal application and Import (File -> Import) a new calendar. When prompted, use your notes from Step #1 to select the file your created earlier. Once completed, close the iCal application (you should have all of your calendar entries back.)
Open the iTunes application and connect your Apple iPhone to the computer.
Within the Advanced section of the Info tab for the Apple iPhone, check the box the overwrites/replaces the Calendar data on the Apple iPhone.
Click the Apple/Sync button. New, modified and deleted entries should now be syncing correctly.
That's it! You should be all set and iTunes, iCal and our Apple iPhone should all be playing nicely as friends again. We've used the exact method to repair our own Apple iPhone at least once... maybe even twice.

HT204266 Premium calendars (in-app purchases) on my iPhone not showing on iPad

I have additional premium calendars that I've purchased on my iPhone and show on iPhone calendar that do not show on my iPad calendar. I've restored purchases, rebooted, etc., but still do not see events on my iPad.
Any thoughts on how to get the events on my phone to sync to my iPad?
Thanks

AFAIK... In-App purchases require a Credit Card associated to your account.

Events entered in Calendar on iPhone 4S/iOS7 appear in cloud but not on iPhone.

Events entered in Calendar on iPhone 4S/iOS7 appear in cloud but not on iPhone.

my iphone will not allow me to save events on the calendar. I use the plus sign and get a screen to enter the event name and time but when I go to hit save, it is not there. When I hit "done" which is where the "save" button should be, the screen disappears and the event is not saved. I tried seeing if all of my calendars were on but that doesn't appear to be the issue.

I have a 5s which has been working fine until about a week ago when any calender event added to my phone will not sync with my enterprise server. Any calender event entered on my PC (enterprise) does show on my phone. Mail is working fine both ways,ideas?

I can't add a new event to my calendar on iPhone.

I can't add a new event to my calendar on iPhone. The plus sign is greyed out and even when I try it with Siri it says "Sorry. I can't do that right now". I did my due diligence and searched all over the forums and internet and I can't fix this. There was a listing in a forum where a lady had this same symptom but it looks like toggling iCloud worked for her. Not for me. I went into Settings>iCloud and turned off Calendar and then turned it back on. Still nothing. I even went to iCloud Backup and turned it on then back off and still nothing. Anyone have any suggestions? Thanks!

See if you can go to your Calendars App and select a previous event to see what Calendar the event was added to (iCloud or Yahoo). After that is determined you can go to www.iCloud.com or calendar.yahoo.com and add the event there to see if it will populate on your device. Another troubleshooting step is deleting the iCloud account from your device and also deleting the Yahoo account. Then check to see if you can add an event without it syncing to a email. If you can then it may have just been a bug and you can add both accounts back and try adding the event again. I would also recommend only using one service to sync your Contacts, Calendars, Reminders, etc. Such as either iCloud only or Yahoo only, as using multiple accounts means your data is spread around and can be hard to isolate when something goes wrong.

As I mentioned earlier, you have to decide which calendar you want to use. You can either use Google or iCloud, but not both.
If you want to use your iCloud calendar, go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Default Account (in the Calendar section) and set this to your iCloud calendar. After doing so, all new events you add to your calendar will be added by default to your iCloud calendar, and as a result, will appear on icloud.com and your computer (if it is syncing calendars with your iCloud account).
If, on the other hand, you want to use your Google calendar (as it sounds like you are doing with your iPod), simply add the same Google calendar to your phone and your computer.

TS4337 I have a Google calendar that is syncing with my iPad and on my MacBook Air. However, the calendar items are not showing up when I access iCloud via the Internet. Any suggestions?

On the iPad tap Settings > iCloud
Toggle Documents & Data off then back on then restart your iPad.
Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button down until the red slider appears. Slide your finger across the slider to turn off iPhone. To turn iPhone back on, press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
On the iMac open System Preferences > iCloud
Deselect the box next to Documents & Data then reselect it then restart your iMac.

Reminder and Calendar app info not showing up in Today View

Both the reminders app and calendar app are showing up as empty, that is, they are not showing any information, in the Today View of the notification center, yet I have multiple reminder lists and calendars on my computer. What's going on? How do I select which lists/calendars show up in this section?
Thanks in advance for whatever help you can offer.

Ok. So to make things clearer....
I was able to undelete the yahoo [CICAL] service book so now both my emails are back into play.
After reading some more posts, this is the problem I'm having (sorry if I'm repeating stuff from my previous comment, I just wasn't sure if I made sense).
Issues:
* In the Today theme, my calendar entries are not showing up on the home screen
* It looks like all my calendar entries went to the "Device Default" calendar setting
* If I enter a new calendar entry, it says it's using my yahoo email address (which is what it was doing before) and now that entry will show up
* However, ALL my calendar entries are under the "Device Default" so it would take forever to re input all my calendar entries so that it's posting under my Yahoo account
Any suggestions on what I should do? Is the only option to just wipe my entire calendar and reinput everything?
Thanks!
