Help, I can,t get mail contacts calendar to load in settings.

My mail won't download. When I go to settings to check it the mail, contacts, calendar option won't load it seems to freeze on the previous option. Any ideas please

Try to use the SearchReset extension to reset some preferences to the default values.
*https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/searchreset/
Note that the SearchReset extension only runs once and then uninstalls automatically, so it won't show on the "Firefox > Add-ons" page (about:addons).
If you do not keep changes after a restart then see:

You can't open Mail, Contacts & Calendars preferences because it doesn't work on an Intel-based Mac.

I updated my Mac to Mavericks and after that, I can't open the Mail, Contacts and Calendar preferences.
Every time I try, I get the following message:
"You can’t open Mail, Contacts & Calendars preferences because it doesn’t work on an Intel-based Mac."
I tried this workaround from the Mountain Lion thread (https://discussions.apple.com/message/21303574#21303574) but it didn't worked.
Further I deleted all files in the Library Preferences folder, but it didn't helped also.
Can anyone help me please?

Hi Michael,
I had the same problem. And I found a fix.
I noticed that on a different system running Mavericks without any problems, the preference pane isn't called 'Mail, Contacts & Calendars' anymore, it's now called 'Internet accounts'. The fact that it's still called by the old name on your system, means it somehow wasn't replaced while updating to Mavericks.
So the cure is pretty easy:
On a different Mavericks system, go to /System/Library/PreferencePanes/ and copy the file InternetAccounts.prefPane. Take it to the system you're trying to fix, and paste the prefPane file in the same directory. Reboot, and it should all work fine. At least it did in my case.
Cheers

After upgrading my ipad 2 to iOS5 I can't access mail, contacts, calendars option

Hi All,
Newbie here so please go easy!
My problem is that after upgrading my iPad 2 to iOS5 I can't access the mail, contacts, calendars option from general settings or even from the Mail program. This is therefore preventing me from setting up anymore than one e-mail account.
Do I need to do a system reset / restore? If so how do I do a system reset in particular?
Any help would be appreciated.

Hi,
Thanks for reply. Sorry for delay in responding, for some reason I wasn't able to respond using my iPad so am using my iPhone.
The restrictions have not been enabled at all, so I assume that this should not really make a difference. I also have an iPhone 4 and have upgraded this to iOS5 but have no issues accessing the Mail, Contacts, Calendar option from general settings. This also does not have restrictions enabled therefore appears to have the same setup as my iPad but with no problems.
Sorry once again for the delay in responding.
Many thanks

Mountain Lion: can't open Mail, Contacts & Calendars preference pane

Hi guys,
I downloaded Mountain Lion this morning and am loving it. But I'm having a problem that so far I can't find anything about here or elsewhere on the web: I cannot open the Mail, Contacts & Calendars preference pane in System Preferences. Instead I get 1 of 2 error messages. The first says simply that it couldn't load this preference pane (see attached pic), while the second says it cannot open it because this service is not available on Intel-based Macs.
The weirdest thing is that I WAS able to open this pane at least once right after downloading ML. I know that it looks the same as this setting in the Settings iOS app, and I even unchecked some of the options for my gmail and exchange email accounts (chose not to sync notes, calendars, etc. with all those accounts since I just use iCloud now).
I've tried restarting System Preferences, and my computer, multiple times... no luck. Any ideas?!?
THANKS!
P.S.- I've got a mid-2009 MBP that meets the specifications for ML.

Unfortunately my above message does NOT solve my original Mail, Contacts and Calendars problem, which continues. Here's a pic of the other message I routinely received (below)...
Is anyone else having this problem???

Can't access mail, contacts, calendar tab will not open

I can not access my emails. I updated my password on my PC and tried to updated my password for my email account on my iPad but when I go to the account settings page and tap on "mail, contacts, calendar" tab it will not open. I have the original iPad and every since I downloaded iOS 5 I have had all sorts of glitches on my iPad... Frustrating...

Hey Paul,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities. There are two options to assist with the issue, Reset All Settings or backup and restore the device and setup as new.
To Reset All Settings on the device: Settings > General > Reset All Settings
If you need to restore your iPad, the following article will assist with this.

Mail contacts calendars option freezes in settings list

For no reason whatsoever, my Exchange Server mail stopped syncing with my iPad2 yesterday. When I go to Settings, "Mail Contacts Calendars", the line highlights but then just freezes right there and I can never get into those settings (eventually the iPad just takes me back the home screen). I did a soft reset, then a hard reset with restore (same problem), and now I am doing a hard reset with no restore (basically wiping the unit clean, which is such a pain in the a$$ to get all of my apps back into the appropriate folders that I've created). Any reason why this happened? Any way to fix it in the future? I have an iPhone 3GS and the mail was still working fine with it. No changes were made on the server or on the iPad2 (I own the company and know that no one did any changes yesterday). It happened just out of the blue. Thoughts? Thanks.

I have been experiencing some major sync/push problems with mail, contacts and calendar between my Mac, iphone and ipad for over a month now. The problems are still being investigated by Apples technicians.
However, a couple of days ago I set up a new iCloud account, whilst my original one is currently being investigated and is practically useless.
The new iCloud account works fine. All devices sync properly and I can create, edit and delete entries from all devices.
This is clearly an iCloud issue. I was initially suspected of causing the problem. I am now in the clear. If your email is of no consequence I suggest setting up a new iCloud account. Mine is important so I am waiting for Apple to reset my original iCloud account so that I can use it again.
Since setting up the new account my ipad works fine and no longer freezes in settings.
Result. Hope it works for you.

Can't synch mail, contacts, calendars in iCloud since IOS 7

Since I installed IOS 7 on all of my devices, I cannot synch "mail, contacts and calendars" in iCloud Control Panel 3.0. When I try to check the box, a sync appears to be setting up but I get an error message before it can complete. I have sent the "Report" but this issue continues. I have reinstalled iCloud 3.0 and trid again, but to no avail. HELP! I need my iPad and iPhone to syc with my Outlook 2010 Contacts, Calendars, and Tasks.

If you get the error "Backup not successful" and you've tried deleting the last backup and trying to back up manually without luck, try the following test: Go to...
Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup>manage Storage, tap your device name in the Backups section, then look under Backup options. Turn off all apps from backup and then do a manual backup. If that doesn't work, then this post will not help. If the backup works, then go back to the app list and turn some on and try another backup. If successful, keep repeating these steps. If it fails at some point, then try to zero in on the one app that seems to make the backup fail. (I had this problem and found one app failing, probably due to a corrupt data file.)
This process will take time, but if a backup works with no app data being used but clearly fails with the original settings, then somewhere in the mix of apps is a "bad" one.

Can I get my Contacts & Calendar info onto a new Computer?

I just posted something in Kantyka recent posting titled "transfer files from ipod touch to new computer?" as my problem is along similar lines. Yet I thought I should start a new thread to ensure a better chance of getting a response to my questions. So here it goes ...
I just recently purchased my iPod Touch and now my small business PC had crashed. I had my MP3s backed up mostly, but I lost everything in MS Outlook, my Inbox and email folders, including Calendar & Contacts. I have a new PC now and I am thankful that I have the iPod Touch with my Calendar & Contacts information at least. I have decided that I am no longer going to use Outlook. I don't want to risk losing everything again, so I am switching to Gmail and Google Calendar.
But now I am worried about what will happen if I plug my iPod in again and no longer have Outlook etc.. Plus I am plugging it in to a new computer that the iPod has never been connected to or installed on. If I plug it in will my Calendar & Contacts stay intact? Will it reformat? Can I upload the Contacts &/or Calendar from the iPod into Gmail Contacts & Google Calendar? I don't want to loose everything ... I will definitely turn the sync feature off, as suggested in the other post until I get something figured out, but is there a way I can back up the Calendar & Contacts already in the iPod before I attempt to try anything new with Gmail etc.? Any help is appreciated ... I'm not sure what my next steps should be ...
Thanks,
Andrea

So I spent a long time reading through the forums and the iPod Manual etc. and here is what I decided to do ...
I installed iTunes & Outlook 2003 on my new system (Vista Ultimate, my old system was XP) and decided to try and just sync it up and guess what? It worked! I was just so worried that switching from XP to Vista would screw it up and I didn't want to lose any more than I already had.
I don't want to continue using Outlook, but I decided to just install the old version just to see if I could get my contacts and calendars back. It worked! Now I plan to export both and upload them to Gmail and Google and only use them going forward. The only real issue for someone else doing this is to make sure that you choose to Merge when plugging in your iPod to the new computer. Otherwise it Replaces everything instead of uploading/syncing. Also keep in mind this is just for Contacts and Calendar, not MP3s ...

How can I get my contacts/calendars sync'd properly on Mac and iphone?

I've set up WIFI sync and finally can see podcasts on iphone etc but my contacts and calendars are not syncing between these two. I have contacts added on my phone that are not showing up on my computer and vice versa. And I have multiple calendars on my Mac that aren't showing up on the iPhone 3GS. I have to sync my ipad 2 with all of this but don't want to do this until the sync'ing is worked out between iphone and Mac. Any help is really appreciated.
Thanks!

I already tried rebooting, and I tried hooking it up to itunes as well, no luck there either.

Try to reset all settings.
Settings > General > Reset > Reset all Settings. It won't delete your data.
When you say reboot, do you mean you pressed the home and sleep button at the same time until it restarted?

I accidentally deleted my account under the Mail, Contacts, Calendars setting. How can i get the account back?

In settings > Mail, contacts, calendars> account. i was trying to delete the email part, but i didnt know it also deleted the notes part. i really need the notes. how can i get it back? the email wasn't an iCloud account.

If you don't have an Installer disk then you can't install without a purchase. Do you have the grey SystemRestore disks that came with your Mac? It's on that. No, iPhoto is not part of Lion.

Can someone please help. I noticed that all my calendar events have completely disappeared :( I made sure that under settings "mail/contacts/calendars", that under sync it is "all events". Not working.

Can someone please help. All calendar events have completely disappeared from my iphone. I tried troubleshooting. Made sure that in settings, the "mail/contacts/calendars", that under "sync" it was checked off "all events". But it was like that already. Nothing seems to be working. Are my events lost now? I'm stressing. Lol. Thank you.

Check settings > iCloud > calendars. Is it on or off?
