Events created on iphone over a week into the future do not sync with mac

Hello,
I have the following problem: whenever I create an event on iCal on the iPhone (2.2.1 3G), this newly created event sync backs fine to iCal on my mac (macbook running 10.5.6), as long as it occurs within 7 days into the future. Any events that lie more than 7 days into the future will not sync back from my iphone to the mac.
Example: today is 3/3. Any events create on the phone for 3/3, 3/4 ... 3/9 WILL sync back to ical on my mac. Events for 3/12 do NOT sync. Events for 3/10 8am did sync, but 11pm did not. Forget about your dental appt 6 months from now. As if there is some arbitrary "7 day in the future" cutoff.
I called phone support, thinking there may be a hidden setting or so that I overlooked, and that was utterly useless. The Apple rep suggested to look in the app store for an application that might fix this. "Besides", he said, "nobody creates events more than 7 days in the future". ***?
Looks like a bug to me, but maybe I overlooked something.
Can anybody confirm this behavior?
Is there any setting that I can try?
Any procedure that I should try?
ny other suggestions?
Thanks much!
Erik

Before i began syncing calendar events over the air with my MobileMe/former .Mac account, I synced contact info direct with iCal on my Mac via the iTunes sync process. I had no problem syncing events created more than 7 days in the future with the direct sync with iCal on my Mac, and I don't have this problem syncing calendar events over the air with my MM account.
I believe there is a setting under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences for syncing calendar events. I no longer have this available for my iPhone sync preferences since I'm syncing calendar events over the air with my MM account. I know the setting includes an option for syncing events in the past, but I don't recall if it included an option for syncing events in the future. There should be a setting for syncing all events. Is this selected?
There is also a setting on the iPhone for syncing all events, or events 2 weeks back, or 3 months back, but nothing for limiting syncing events in the future such as limiting this within the next 7 days.

HT1296 I'm having difficulty syncing my iCal between my home computer and iPhone. New entries from my home are not syncing with the phone and vice-versa. I didn't have any problems with this before until the latest phone update. Any suggestions?

It could be that the existing wire in your appartment is not clean enough to provision DSL only. When combined with the phone possibly it has a higher line voltage and worked before. Now that the line is to be provisioned without phone service it may be giving them trouble that did not show before they came out and ran the new line test. So a new jack dedecated for your DSL line may require a new wire be run to your appartment. Also the account for internet only used to require direct billing to a credit card or something else. This was a number of years ago. Most accounts are linked to a phone number, and without a voice number it adds to the confusion.
If you are getting the voice and everything turned on as before, then I am at a loss for words.

If I convert the songs on my iPhone to 128 kbps, will the play counts still sync with what's on my computer?

If I convert the songs on my iPhone to 128 kbps, will the play counts still sync with what's on my computer? I have a lot of songs on my iPhone which are at the 256 kbps bitrate, and if I take them down to 128 kbps on my iPhone, I'll be able to fit a lot more music on my iPhone. But...I really would like to keep the play counts between my iPhone and my Mac in sync. Will that still happen if I switch, or will there be an issue?

Anybody?

TS4062 my iphone 4 has mild water damage and will not sync with cable.I want to sync it over wifi to reload data I deleted during my troubleshooting, but I did not set up for wifi sync before the damage. Is there a way that this can be done now ?

My iphone 4 has mild water damage. As a result, it will not sync with it's former XP computer with the cable. I deleted the phone's data in the troubleshooting process. I want to get it back by syncing over wifi, but I did not set up this capability before the damage occured.is there another way to initiate this feature ? I can tell that they are connecting in the cloud because an app I just downloaded on the phone is showing up in itunes on the computer.

You don't need to access your e-mail account, just get into your Apple account and change the e-mail address. If you can't access your Apple account, then you have a bigger issue to contend with.

The calendar on the imac is not syncing with the iphone?

The calendar on my macpro, operating system OS X 10.6.8, does not sync with the iphone? When I look up on the info tab in itunes, the calendar is checked to sync

Completely by serendipity I just fixed this!
I was perplexed as to why all my events showed in iCal on my computer, but only some events would show in iCal on my iphone.
All day events were not showing, appointments weren't showing and neither was work, but social events were, no matter how many times i tried to sync my iphone with my MacBook Pro. Hmmm strange.
So I only just figured it out accidentally when on iCal on my iphone that if i click the 'calendars' tab in the top left hand corner, it takes me to a list of all my created calendars (and their colours) that I have in iCal.
If you tap on a certain calendar it will display only those events. Eg. I tapped on my calendar 'appointments >', and iCal only displayed all of my appointment times on my iphone and not the other events.
If I tap on 'work >', it displays all work events. Etc.
Is this making sense??
NOW:
If you go back to the 'calendars' tab on iCal on the iphone and tap on 'All >'...
then
Hooray!!! All your events will be displayed.
Hopefully! :P
Hope this helps!!

Cloud not syncing with mac, iPhone or iPad

My caldendar is not syncing with my Mac, MBP, iPhone or iPad. When I go to the cloud there are a large number of appointments that do not show up. I am having to use the calendar of my Mac or MBP. If I enter appointments in the cloud dupes show up on my other calendars. This has been going on for a long time. It seems every time there is an IOS update the cloud gets out of sync with all my devices.

IPhone iCal not syncing with Mac iCal

Hi there.
When I create a new event on my iPhone in iCal, it doesn't appear on my mac's iCal.
Anyone can help?
In settings, mail, contacts, calendars, I have "all events" for sync, yet I have that issue.
Thaks to anyone who can help

Is this a Lion problem?
When I go to Systems Prefs> MobileMe> Sync (the list of items to sync) the Calendar options is in the list, then disappears. This looks like a bug to me. And yes, I can replicate it.

Email will not sync with Mac and iPhone

I have an iPhone 3GS which I've updated to OS 4. After reading an email on either my Mac or my phone and delete it, the message is not deleted from the other device. I'm not too "techy" and do not understand what I need to do in order to get the mail synched as it was in OS 3.

I waited an extra week or two like I always do before updating, but I still caught the bug. I was interested when I saw the App Store, but really surprised when my phone didn't show up in iTunes. I haven't tried incredible troubleshooting steps, just letting you all know I have the problem also. As I read up and try those troubleshooting steps I'll come back and repost. Thanks for your posts on here...maybe Apple will be quick about fixing the update with a new update.

Bb calendar is not syncing with MAC, i am to the point that I am going to switch to an Iphone

When I put the software on MAC, I was asked the first time where to sync and I choose the Address book and Ical.
I originally just synced the phone book. About 2 weeks ago I attempted to sync calendars to ICAL and I was having trouble until it worked. Now I went to sync everything again and it doesn't.
I uninstalled the software and installed it and it still doesn't work. I am try to see if it works to sync to entourage but I don't know how to change the settings to sync to Entourage.
I am getting so frustrated that I am thinking about switching to an IPHONE. I have had a blackberry for 9 years, and never had a problem, until I purchased a MAC, which I love.
Can you please help me. In need to sync my blackberry to my Mac, so it can sync with my IPAD.
Thanks

right. well i had no idea that apple doesnt read its own forums. however, i stand by what i said, i belelive spreading the good word between fellow apple users is equally effective at the goal I am wishing to accomplish. im sure i look like an idiot to you, but i feel you're sadly mistaken :/

ICal on iPhone not syncing with Mac.

Does anyone know how I can get iCal on my iPhone 4s to sync with my computer? All my contacts and emails (thru yahoo) sync up just fine, but I can't get the calendars to sync. I do not have MobileMe or iCloud, but do I have to have them to do this? I wanted to use Apple's iCal, but maybe I should just use Yahoo's calendar feature instead? Any advice/help in this would be greatly appreciated.

My phone is doing the same thing. When I delete events on my mac, they are still present on the iphone after a sync. I have restored my phone, both from back up, and as a new iphone. This is very frustrating.

IPhone calendar items not syncing with Mac calendar

A few weeks ago I noticed that items added to my iPhone calendar stopped syncing with my Mac calendar. Items added or deleted from my Mac calendar, however, do sync properly to my iPhone.
iPhone 4S iOS 7.0.6. Mac OS 10.8.5 (whatever beast that is). I sync via iTunes and USB cable. I do not use iCloud and am not interested in doing so.
I looked through other discussion threads, and they did not seem to address my problem. Thank you in advance for any help you can give.

The answer given by randers4 here solved my problem (turn out I have Mountain Lion):

TS4268 I have a new iphone on a new telephone number but I cannot delete the old one and the phone will not sync with the phone

Has anyone else had the same problem with a new phone and new telephone number?

I would delete all data from the phone and restore as new. I assume the phone is unlocked. Then I would get the SIM card from the carrier I want to use and activate the SIM with the carrier and po my phone number across. After that I would use the SIM card in the phone and activate the phone using iTunes, a computer and the setup assistant that will pop up in iTunes and you should be good to go. I don't know what you did when you got into the trouble you now have.

IPhone Mail inbox not syncing with Mac inbox

Greetings
Since upgrading my MBP recently, mail in my iPhone Mail inbox/sent items has not been syncing fully with my Mac Mail inbox/sent items.
Messages which are moved to folders stored On My Mac remain in my iPhone inbox.
Messages which are moved to folders stored in iCloud are removed from my iPhone in inbox and are visible as they should be in the iCloud folders on my iPhone.
I use both an iCloud email account as well as an account through my domain host. I do not use Gmail or an Exchange account, and tis problem dud not occur with my old MBP.
Any advice most gratefully received.
Sashina.

Hi KiltedTIm
Hmmm. I've changed my Mac, iPhone and iPad all from POP to IMAP. On my Mac there are only two items in the inbox in question, but on both mobile devices are every bit of mail from that account (not in filed iCloud folders) going back to 17 April. I've restarted both devices but everything is still in the inbox.
Any further ideas?
Thanks!

Calendar in Iphone not syncing with Mac or Mobile Me

All of my calendar entries on my IPhone are in a calendar that shows up under Untitled Account. It wont sync with either my Mac or Mobile Me and I have tried every setting I know how. This has happened since I updated to 3.0.
Any suggestions on how to move this to one of my existing accounts that do sync?
Any help would be most appreciated.
Cheers
Kevin MacAfee

Kevin,
Open "Settings" on the iPhone>Mail, Contacts, Calendars, Bookmarks>Accounts>your MobileMe account and turn off the Calendar, when prompted delete data, wait two minutes turn Calendar back on, and when asked merge the data. Wait patiently, and hopefully you will be able to regain sync functions. If you are able, I recommend using a Wi-Fi connection to make the change
AFAIK, the merge function will incorporate calendars on your iPhone and MobileMe.
If you are not confident with that answer, be sure to try MobileMe Support and select the appropriate country/language, choose "Syncing with MobileMe," select "Troubleshooting MobileMe Sync issues," and then select "Chat Now."
;~)
