Events from iCal changes when synced with phone :-((

Hi! I've just bought a bluetooth adapter so I can sync my phone with ical. I'm convinced this will bring me one step closer to a digital synchronized heaven, but (of course) I encountered a problem:
When I have added an event to my phone (Sony Ericsson T610) and syncs the calendar with my laptop (iBook G4 933 MHz), the event is "postponed" by two hours. For example: I have an appointment with - say - Pamela Anderson from 12:00 to 15:00 which I add to my phone. When syncing with iCal, the event has changed to 14:00-17:00.
When I add the event to my laptop first, and then syncs it with the phone - the time of the event is set two hours earlier . To take my great example again, the event would then appear to be from 10:00-13:00.
I've gone through all preferences etc. I can find in both iCal, iSync and on the phone. I've found no help online either... Does anyone have a clue? If so, please give me a hint on what to do, I would be immensely grateful!

I was convinced that my time zone was GMT, but when I checked it was GMT +2 hrs, which solved my problem! Thank you so much Julian for helping me solve this, I cant wait to start a synced life

  • HT1386 How do we keep one phone contacts seperate from the other when syncing with itunes

    How do you keep one phones contacts, calendar, etc from another phone when syncing with itunes?

    Disable auto-syncing. Here’s how:
    1. Before you plug the iPhone or iPod into the computer, go to iTunes.
    2. On a Mac, go to the iTunes menu -> Preferences -> Devices.
    On a PC, go to Edit -> Settings -> Devices
    3. In the pop up window, look for the icon or tab that says Devices. Choose it.
    4. Just below the box, you’ll see a checkbox reading "Prevent iPods, iPhones, and iPads from syncing automatically."
    5. Check it and click OK at the bottom of the window.
    Now when you plug the phone in it won't automatically star syncing.

  • Events disappearing from Outlook Calendar when synced with iPhone 4

    Hi,
    I have just switched from iPhone 4 to iPhone 4S. I have the same iTunes and Apple ID on both the iPhones (the other one is used by my wife) but I created different iCloud ID for both the iPhones. When I synced the new iPhone 4S with my laptop, I found that my calender events on my laptop dissappeared.
    This never happened with iPhone 4. Can you please help to find out the reason?
    Thanks

    When you created a new Apple ID and logged the phones in you disconnected them from the account where your calendars etc are, use your original ID.

  • ICal change hours when sync, iCal is systematically changing hours in the calender when synced with iPad. How avoid this?

    iCal is alteing the time of events in teh calender when synced with iPad. Events are moved. All times are set at the same time on iPad, Iphone and Macbook pro, but the calendars are altered on all devices when synced. How can I avoid this?

    Hi,
    What timezone is your iCal set to (this may be different from your computer timezone look at the top right of the iCal window)?
    What is the timezone on your iPad under Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Calendars > Time Zone Support ?
    Best wishes

  • How do I change a recurring event on iPhone 5 which syncs with Google Calendar.  As soon as I change it on phone it reverts back to original.  Works on pc perfectly.

    Help.  How do I change a recurring event on iPhone 5 which syncs with Google Calendar.  Just reverts back to original.  Work perfectly on pc.

    Do you happen to have Dial Assist on? This is in Settings>Phone. This is what helps the phone identify international numbers when dialing, based on location. See if turning that off/on makes a difference. Unless you are making a number of international calls, I believe this can be left off. See the User Guide http://manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1565/en_US/iphone_user_guide.pdf  Page 49 has info regarding Dial Assist.

  • Set up mail app but it is sending ALL events from iCal to gmail with an error...

    Previously, I had set up iCal to sync with gmail so I could have my calendar on my droid phone.  Today I tried to set up the mail app to sync with my yahoo mail account.  It works, and I can see my inbox, but for some reason when I open mail it attempts to send all of the events in iCal as alarms to Gmail.  It opens hundreds of windows and slows down my computer. Each message has an error about not having an outgoing mail server selected.  I've tried to delete my gmail from iCal to un- sync everything, but everytime I open mail it starts a domino effect of iCal alarm outgoing message windows. I can individually choose Yahoo! as the outgoing server, but it is incredibly slow and there are hundreds of them to go through...what do I do?

    Have you checked the event log to see if there are any errors during the connector processing? The events will be logged in Application and Services Logs\Operations Manager. Look for any error messages during the time the connector was syncing. Most events
    dealing with the ConfigMgr connector have a source of "Data Connectors" or "Lfx Service", but I would suggest looking through all of them from that time period. Let us know if you find anything there.

  • I have just purchased a new macbook and need to sync my iphone with itunes, i understand that you can only sync your phone with one itunes account. I do not want to wipe my iphone when syncing with this new itunes account. Any advice welcome

    I have just purchased a new macbook and need to sync my iphone with itunes, i understand that you can only sync your phone with one itunes account. I do not want to wipe my iphone when syncing with this new itunes account. Any advice welcome

    1) authorize iTunes on the new machine for your iTunes store account(s)
    2) connect your device and right-click or control-click it in the iTunes Source list, then choose transfer purchases from the shortcut menu that appears.
    3) sync the device
    iTunes will wipe the iPhone but, since you transferred your purchases in the previous step, your content will be in your library and you can re-populate the iPhone with it.

  • No events listed when syncing with iPhone

    When syncing with iTunes, events are no longer listed when choosing option s photos on the iPhone?? Why

    I confirmed that I have the radio button checked that says "Sync all Contacts", but not the one that specifically shows Yahoo! Address Book. So the question remains, why does iTunes consistently prompt me to sync Yahoo! Address Book? How can I stop that from happening?

  • How do you view on iPhone events from iCal that are six months out?

    I am trying to synch my iCal with an iPhone. When I synch the calendar it will only show events for the next few weeks. How do I get my iPhone calendar to show events from iCal that are six or eight months out?
    Thanks

    Corey,
    Welcome to Apple Discussions.
    What calendars have you chosen to sync in iTunes>Info>Calendars?
    What happens in iTunes if you select your iPhone under "Devices," then choose Info>Advanced>Replace information on this iPhone>: and check "Calendars"/"Sync?"
    ;~)

  • My ical is not syncing with my iPhone 4s.

    My ical is not syncing with my iPhone 4s. I had mobileme and upgraded to iCloud. I also have Mac Lion and feel like I have all the upgrades required, but any time I enter a new event in my iCal, it never transfers to my iPhone. Note: when I enter an event in my phone, it DOES transfer properly to my iCal on my Mac.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    First check that all your settings are correct, that calendar syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
    Make sure the calendars you are using are in your 'iCloud' account and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud account (you can do this by clicking/tapping the calendar button in the top left corner of the application ), non iCloud calendars will not sync.
    If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your calendars are in the iCloud account, you might try unchecking calendar syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling calendar syncing settings.

  • Ical won't sync with iPhone 5, iPad 2 or macbook pro.

    I have updated my devices and now my ical won't sync with iPad 2, macbook pro or iPhone 5.  How can I refresh them so they will all sync together.  I just noticed that when I added an event on my ipad2 it did not show up on my macbook pro.  I turned iCloud off then on again.  I also turned calendars on and off again.  Then the event disappeared from my iPad also.  So now it is only on my iPhone 5.  How do I sync ical with all my devices?

    Anna,
    I have tried everything suggested by the apple support webpage.
    It would be helpful to know if you used this support article: iCloud: Troubleshooting iCloud Calendar.

  • How to delete all events from iCal?

    Is it possible to select and delete all events from iCal? Or is it simpler to delete the calendar itself? Thanks!

    Sorted now!
    To clarify for people like me: type "." in the search bar
    Then click on the first item in the results pane
    Go to the other end of the list, hold down shift, and click the LAST item
    They should all be highlighted now
    Then use Edit/Delete
    NB it may take a couple of mins (or ten!) for the items to disappear from your view, particularly if syncing with MobileMe.

  • How can i export events from ical to word

    I need to use the description of many events from Ical in a text using Word for Mac.
    How can I do it?

    thisone - Thanks for your response, but unlike most events, this one does not have an edit button before the Event Details screen. In the top right hand corner next to the words 'Event Details' there is just an empty space.
    This event is extremely pesky and I have repeatedly synced my phone in attempt to remove it. It was an invitation I accepted for a recurring weekly event, which was sent to an email address for my old job. That email address is no longer active and no longer existing on my phone, but this event continues to show up on my calendar every single Tuesday.
    Help?
