Google contacts and calendar events entered on my iPhone 5s are not syncing with my google account.

Newly entered contacts and calendar events entered on my IPhone 5s are not syncing to google.
Facts that may be pertinent:
- I switched from the iPhone 4 to the iPhone 5s and did the easy option of having it automatically set up like my previous phone, so I did not change any part of the setup. It is possible that it stopped syncing at that time, based on which contacts have synced and which haven't.
- My gmail account is set up as Exchange, with Mail, Contacts, and Calendars set to sync.
- Server: m.google.com, Use SSl is on, S/MIME is off (I don't actually know what these are, but maybe they matter?)
- Fetch New Data / Gmail account is set to Push
- Contacts and Calendar Default Account is Gmail
- In the Contacts app under Groups I have only GMAIL checked.
I've read that Google recommends CardDAV, which I gather is not the same as Exchange?
I'm afraid to delete anything and start over, for fear of losing my contacts.
Is there a difference between the gmail account I set up and what the Contacts app calls GMAIL?
If there is anything I should communicate about how things are set up on the Google end, let me know.
Thanks in advance for help!

Hello Marsden,
Try this...
Go to the isync program on your Mac. 
Go to Preferences in the main menu
Hit Reset Sync History
I'm pretty sure this is how I fixed it... so far so good.
Let me know if that works for you!

  • The events I create on my Iphone 4 are not syncing with iCal.

    Everything was fine until I updated the software on the phone to the iOS 5 and now I notice that events which I originated on my phone will not sync with my computer's iCal.  I believe that things which are on my ICal will sync with my phone but not vice versa.  I've tried changing the settings in iCal, ITunes and on my Iphone.  Any suggestions on how to fix this. 
    Thank you!

  • I have some music from CDs and recent purchases from iTunes on my iPhone 4 that are not synced with my iTunes account on my computer.  How can I sync my phone and iTunes on my computer without losing what is on my iPhone?  (original computer was stolen)

    I have some music from CDs and recent purchases from iTunes on my iPhone 4 that I would like to sync with my iTunes account on my computer.  The CDs were on my original laptap also, but it was stolen and I set up the iTunes on my new computer.
    When I try to sync I get a message indicating that the iPhone iTunes will be replaced with the computer iTunes.
    How can I sync and retain both iTunes?

    Music is designed to sync in one way only, and that is from iTunes to the phone. There is the expectation that you would backup the computer to save this data. There are 3rd party solutions to try and recover music from the phone to put back into a blank iTunes library.

  • Help!  I backed up my new iphone 4s and all my existing contacts and calendar events from my old iphone.  Everything transferred but now I don't have the option to edit my contacts or calendar and I can't add any new contacts or events to my calendar.

    The "edit" box and "+" symbol don't even show up in my calendar or contacts so I can't edit or add in either.

    Assuming you activated iCloud, try going to Settings>iCloud and make sure Calendars and Contacts are set to ON.

  • I've lost the contacts and calendar events from my 3GS after setting up iCloud with iPad3 and PC Outlook.  Any solutions?

    I've lost the contacts and calendar events (& email) from my 3GS after setting up iCloud with iPad3 and PC Outlook.  Any solutions?
    I tried to re-synch it with the PC iTunes, but no luck, even when re-checking the boxes for Outlook...

    I should mention that i have NOT upgraded to iOS 5 on the 3GS and don't want to.  Therefore, no iCloud on the phone.

  • HT1296 When syncing to ipod and ipad i get duplicate contacts and calendar events

    Probllems syncing contacts and calendare events. I get dups and triplicates

    How are you syncing? Are you syncing through itunes, icloud or both? Most issues come from syncing the same data/content from more than one source.

  • HT4436 Why don't all my contacts and calendar events on my iMac (version 10.7.4) stream onto iCloud? For instance, there are 470 entries in my address book but only 270 on iCloud. And not all my appointments in iCal are transferred.

    I have the same problem transfering Address book on iMac to contacts on iPhone (old version 3G - on iCloud). this is a hard wired connection

    Might you have 200 entries in On My Mac groups and some of your appointments in On My Mac calendars?

  • Why can´t I see contacts and calendar events from my iPhone in my mac pro if I already registered it in the cloud?

    Why can´t I see contacts and calendar events already registered in my iPhone, in my Mac Pro ?  I already actualize LION OSX   and selected these items in the adjustments menu of the icloud. I could do it just once, after I installed Lion OSX, but up to the moment it does not updates.

    Assuming you activated iCloud, try going to Settings>iCloud and make sure Calendars and Contacts are set to ON.

  • Many contacts and calendar events have disappeared

    Many of my contacts and calendar events have suddenly disappeared. Can they be retrieved?

    Mine too. I have a J Home and J Work calendar. The J Home calendar is completely gone and had all my personal events. I checked iCloud and it is gone there. No one has access except me. I opened my calendar on my iphone this afternoon to add an appt for my son. The data was there and basically disappeared in front of my eyes. I didn't touch the calendars menu until everything was gone so it wasn't me. I'm losing my mind right now. Everything is gone...just gone.
    I just noticed my wife's shared calendars also no longer appear on my phone or iCloud. Both of her calendars appear on her iCloud and they still say they are shared with me. That's just f****n great. iCloud broke something and I'm the one to suffer. I'll bet anything Apple won't do anything to help as they don't back up iCloud data. I'm sure they do as they are required by law, but they won't admit it. SONOFA!!!!

    BlackBerry Desktop Software utilizes Apple's SyncServices technology in order to synchronize Contact, Calendar, Notes, and Tasks information to and from the Mac computer.
    BlackBerry Desktop Software synchronizes information with the SyncServices database, which is synchronized with the desktop applications on the Mac computer (for example: Apple Address Book, iCal, Apple Mail, Microsoft Outlook for Mac). BlackBerry Desktop Software does not synchronize directly to or from the desktop applications on the Mac computer.
    Mac OS X Mavericks v10.9 and later does not use SyncServices, therefore, it is not possible to synchronize Contact or Calendar information using the BlackBerry Desktop Software on these versions of OS X.
    For more information on SyncServices and OS X Mavericks, see the following Apple Support article:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5847
    Note: BlackBerry Desktop software 2.4 is still supported for use with Mac OS X v10.6, 10.7, and 10.8.

  • HT1692 Have recently installed itunes and outlook on a new computer.  Have multiple email accounts set up in Outlook tho only use contacts and calendar in relation to one of these. Cannot sync itunes with the correct contacts and calendars, Help!

    My new computer is 64-bit running Windows 7 pro, SP1 and Microsoft Office 2010 Pro Plus 32-bit
    My phone is a 4S runing iOS 6.1.3
    Very frustrated now that I have recently installed itunes and outlook on this new computer.  Everything worked perfectly ok on my laptop which was also 64-bit Windows 7 and running 32-bit Microsoft Office 2010 Pro.  I have multiple email accounts set up in Outlook tho only use contacts and calendar in relation to one of these. Cannot sync itunes with the correct contacts and calendars, when I sync the calendar and contacts are empty.  Not sure if there is any way to point itunes to particular address books and calendars.
    I have installed and uninstalled itunes 3 times and thank goodness have a backup
    Can anyone help please?
    thanks in anticipation

    I had my home computer set up to sync to work's Exchange server. It worked well, but I didn't like seeing work email messages and other programs trying to sync with my default Outlook folder, which was then the Exchange (& work related) .ost file. I know there are various ways to manage those problems using filters, view, subfolders, etc., but it was a hassle for me. I think it could work well for many other folks.
    For now, I have published my work calendar and subscribed to that calendar on my home computer. So I have view only access to my calendar on my home computer (and I can add/edit calendar items on my iPad (or Outlook Web Access) when away from work). This is not quite what I wanted, but it may work.
    It almost makes me long for the days when I used my Windows Mobile Treo to sync back and forth between exchange at work and outlook at home (but had many sync conflicts as a result).

  • Unable to sync contacts and calendar to outlook 2010 or iphone 5

    I work in IT and several of our clients are have trouble syncing contacts and calendar to outlook 2010 or iphones.
    I have uninstall itunes completely from the computer, deleted the backup and clear the sync history nothing seems to be working.
    Is there are problem with the latest itunes and if so when will the fix be release???

    This is exactly what I am dealing with. Blackberry Link will work great for awhile and then something happens and I can not sync my contacts. I have spent many hours and days trying to fix this to no avail. BB support has been great but I still go through a long process each time. This week I finally gave up and started using the Microsoft Hotmail Outlook Connector since my company does not offer Active Sync or Exchange. It works flawlessly. I would dedfinitely check it out. If you swith to a Widows Phone or Android this is one of the options they recommend you use.
    In a nutshell Link is awful and BB should be ashamed of the product they put on the market. I will only use it for syncing pictures and documents. Good luck!

  • I was trying to get my personal computer contacts and calendar in outlook on my iphone and ipad.  I was told to use icloud.  I went to control panel and then icloud and selected my contacts and calendar.  Now ALL MY DATA IS DELETED FROM OUTLOOK.  Help!!

    I was trying to get my personal computer contacts and calendar in outlook on my iphone and ipad.  I was told to use icloud.  I went to control panel and then icloud and selected my contacts and calendar.  Now ALL MY DATA IS DELETED FROM OUTLOOK.  Help!!

    I was just on the line with Apple Tech support.  First of all, I learned that when you link contacts to iCloud, it moves all your contacts to another/new address book...look for aother address books and you will see it.  But I found the new address book dies weird things and changes the "Display Names" format.  Evidently (per Apple support tech) there is no way to avoid this problem...so I just delinked the iCloud from my contacts.  The contacts stayed in the iCloud address book...so I exported them to a CSV (comma separated value) file and saved it on my desktop and then imported that list into my original contacts folder.  Now everything is back the way it was...being able to use my contact address book the way I did before.  I was surprised that they never considered or realized this problem...but then the tech guy admitted that they really don't have A LOT of experience using Windows PC's.

  • Since Mavericks update my iPhone and iPad calendars are NOT syncing with the calendar on my MacBook Pro

    Since Mavericks update my iPhone and iPad calendars
    are NOT syncing with the calendar on my MacBook Pro.
    I used to use iTunes but don't see the options now.
    Does anyone know how to set up a sync.?

    I have temporarily solved the sync problem by using an older MBAir running snow leopard, I exported
    both calendar and contacts and imported them in the MBA and synced normally.
    Since I'm not about to send my data on the cloud, or setup a server to just sync my iphone,
    I think this is a good workaround ! BTW I stopped updating my contacts and calendar on the MB, I only
    update the iphone until a permanent solution is found !
    And they better come up with one soon, because I'll just switch to an Android phone and Ubuntu linux for my MBP, Apple should make our lives easier, not harder !
    I'm sure Samsung is having a ball ever since the sync issue was made public !
    Hopefully Apple is listening and will make things right again !
