Events on iPhone 3GS UNeditable after iOS 5 upgrade/iCloud sync

Hi,
I'm using:
- iPhone 3GS running iOS 5
- Macbook with iCal
I enabled syncing of ONLY my calendar items into iCloud.  The reminder and events both sync fine back and forth between the phone, iCal, and iCloud.  The problem I have is that after my events have been synced into the cloud, when I view them on my iPhone, the ONLY thing I can do is View (no Edit button).  I am able to add events into the default "Calendar" calendar type (on iPhone) but I have 4 calendars coming from iCloud that I'm unable to edit or add to from the iPhone.  (To be clear, I can easily add to or modify these events from iCal on my Mac.)  Can someone please tell me how I go about being able to edit/add events into the existing 4 calendars going into iCloud?
I've also cross-posted this question in the iCloud category at:  https://discussions.apple.com/message/16476844#16476844
Thanks!

Hi all,
I'm not sure but I hope this might be helpful to some of you who are having the same problem as I was having. My iPhone (3GS) was restarting frequently after I have upgraded that to iOS 5. I noticed that the problem of restarting happens when the network is enabled. So I suggest trying to enable the airplane mode and see if the phone still restarts.
When i enabled the airplane mode, the phone was pretty much stable and didn't have any problem. So I've tried disabling the airplane more and disabled the network. I've tried connecting to WiFi network and it was still working fine. So I figured, the problem must be with the network.
The thing I have found and I'm not sure if it might be the same case with you all, is that perhaps the iPhone was trying to get a data network connection and since I didn't have any at that time, it failed and for some reasons it restarted. When I switched on the data connection under the network, the phone was stable again without any problems.
Maybe you want to go through the same process and pin point the problem. I hope this may be helpful to some of you having the same problem as I had.
Cheers,
Hadi

  • I have an iphone 3GS and I have upgraded it to iOS 6. Since then it doesn't work properly. Every now and then it has been restarting by itself and requiring restore. When I connect it to itunes it restarts again and again. Is there any solution?

    Hey, There are afew things you can try.
    - Simply turn your phone off and back on again
    - Hold down your home button and your lock button and let goes as soon as the screen goes black (Phone will power down) - Then turn on your phone and hey presto!
    - Back up your iPhone to your PC, then restore it..
    this ones last cause I think you may have tried it already..
    - Close all open applications
    Hope this helps!

    Activation issues are almost always the result of a device that has been hacked or jailbroken.

  • Can't Synq iPhone 3GS Calendars after installing iOS6, any suggestions?

    Can't Synq iPhone 3GS Calendars after installing iOS6, any suggestions?
    I'm all mac-based and followed the instructions for the upgrade to iOS6 software for iPhone but now my calendars won't synq.  When I connect to iTunes and run the synq process, it gets stuck on the Calendar step and will not finish the synq process.  I have to either wait for it to quit or force it to quit.  Additionally, when I try to log a new event or meeting onto the Calendar on the iPhone, it will lock up and quit the app.  I then have to shut down the iPhone to get it to open again but it just locks up again when I try to log a new event.  Any suggestions?  I'm tempted to do a back up and reinstall but don't want to risk any data loss.

    Hi there,
    I am using Rogers, which does support tethering.
    The iPhone does not show up in the list of devices in the Bluetooth preference panel. It fails at the Pairing step of the Bluetooth setup assistant.
    Cheers!

  • Is it possible to restore an iPhone 4s with iOS 7 from a backup of an iPhone 3GS that uses iOS 6?

    So for Christmas I am upgrading to a new iPhone and so therefore I am giving my iPhone 4s to my younger brother. He currently uses an iPhone 3GS with iOS 6 installed. I currently have iOS 7 installed on the iPhone 4s but am considering upgrading to iOS 8.1.1. I was wondering if it is possible to when restoring my iPhone 4s to then set it up from the back up of the iPhone 3GS that runs iOS 6, when they run on different operating system updates. Will it work when the iPhone 4s is running iOS 7 or iOS 8, or both, or neither?
    Thank you.

    Yes, but the reverse won’t work.

    Glenn,
    I tried upgrading to leopard, even bought the software and brought it home but it wouldn't let me. So i went back to apple, gave them the specifications of the machine and been told my machine is simply too old for leopard. This is incredible to me because it really isn't THAT old (i think just a little over 6 years maybe) and yet i'm left out on the curb when it comes to using newer apple products. I understand technology moves on but the mindset that i am supposed to dump a perfectly working machine after a couple of years or face not being able to use any other apple product is counter to what thought apple was about.

  • HT1766 i have an unlocked iphone 3gs and need an upgrade how do i upgrade without losing my unlocked status?

    I have an unlocked iphone 3gs how do i upgrade without losing my unlocked status without having to pay to unlock it again.

    Updating and restoring does not lock, but if you have a jailbreak (not AppleSoftware) and you return to Apple Software then it will lock. After all Apple has to keep to the law. It is even possible, that the jailbreak software makes it impossible to install Apple Software again and your iPhone will be inoperable after you try the update.
    So If you officially unlocked you are  fine and if you had a jailbreak, there is nothing an Apple forum can do for you.

  • Iphone 5 issues after IOS 8.2 update: my husband's phone and my phone get the same phone calls ONLY when we are home.  Any suggestions on where to look to fix this?

    Iphone 5 issues after IOS 8.2 update: all the iphones in the house receive the same phone calls ONLY while we are at home.  Any ideas on how to fix this?

    That is a new "feature" described in Connect your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch using Continuity
    You can turn it off by going to Settings > FaceTime and changing "iPhone Cellular Calls" to off

  • HT1386 I have an older iPhone (3gs) and need to upgrade to a newer phone (4S).  I need to get my NOTES, CALENDAR, CONTACTS, PICTURES, etc backed up on iTunes so I can get that data loaded onto the new phone.  But not sure how to do that.

    I have an older iPhone (3gs) and need to upgrade to a newer phone (4S).  I need to get my NOTES, CALENDAR, CONTACTS, PICTURES, etc backed up on iTunes so I can get that data loaded onto the new phone.  But not sure how to do that.  When I open iTunes it has a button that say "Back Up iPhone", but I'm not sure what that does.  When I go into the sync options it say I have another user account and asks me if I want to merge of replace. I'm assuming it's trying to tell me I have an older iTunes Library, but don't know that.  Geez, maybe people over 60 shouldn't have iPhones, iTunes just bafles me.

  • I bought a Sandisk Connect Media Drive, downloaded the app from iTunes.  Before iOS 8, movies played fine.  After iOS upgrade I can no longer play movies downloaded from iTunes to the media drive.  Anyone else have a similar issue?

    I bought a Sandisk Connect Media Drive, downloaded the app from iTunes.  Before iOS 8, movies played fine.  After iOS upgrade I can no longer play movies downloaded from iTunes to the media drive.  Anyone else have a similar issue?

    I checked with SanDisk's own online support and they indicate that they have notified Apple of the issue.
    According to SanDisk, the problem lies with Apple not having the iOS 8 version of the Safari browser having DRM decoding enabled that the Media Drive relies upon to decode and play iTunes DRM titles. Non DRM encoded videos will play in the browser.
    DRM audio is not effected as this is handled by the native iOS music app.
    As of the date of this post SanDisk have not been given a timeframe by Apple for this issue to be resolved.
    I hope that Apple resolves this issue quickly as I have a large collection of DRM video titles on a 128Mb memory card installed in the Media Drive that I am unable to view.

  • My iPhone 3GS (working on iOS 6.1.3) has not backed up to iCloud for the past 10 weeks.

    My iPhone 3GS (working on iOS 6.1.3) has not backed up to iCloud for the past 10 weeks. And whenever I try Backing up to iTunes or to iCloud via either a pc or a Mac, I get the message: "Itunes could not backup the iPhone because an error occured". I tried turning off all apps for backup, but that did not help. I tried deleting all the photos and that did not help either. I tried the backup trobelshooting and I have tried using different computers. I'm completely stomped.
