Help! My calendar synch no longer works!

I use my work PC to synch my calendar + contacts, and my home Mac to synch music/videos with my iPhone. I typically synch my calendar with my phone every other day, and maybe once a week with my Mac.
Ever since I upgraded my iphone to the new Apple firmware update via my work PC, my calendar synch has stopped working!
I tried the usual steps:
1> Resetting synch history
2> Selected the option to "Replace iPhone calendar"
3> Deleted the backup entry AND reset synch history
None of these options seem to work anymore... The only change I now see is that my iPhone calendar is TOTALLY blank! At least, previously, it showed the old calendar entries without the new ones getting synched... Now, it's just a blank slate!!
Any suggestions / tips appreciated. The last time I had this issue several months ago, I had to do a hard reset/rebuild of my iPhone, and ended up losing all my settings. Hope there's a simpler fix than that!

Unbelievable, but true! My problem is resolved, after numerous experiments (reductio ad absurdum approach!)
Here's what worked for me... I create a dummy calendar entry in my (then blank) calendar on the iPhone. And then hit Synch in iTunes... Voila!! That did the trick, and my iPhone calendar now has all my Outlook entries.
Made an assumption that some MSFT developers might have joined the Apple dev team, and sure enough something as quirky as this workaround did do the trick

  • IOS 7 Updated, Shared Calendar is No Longer Working/Syncing

    My husband and I have a shared calendar that used to immediately notify the other when a new event was added. I just updated my 4s to IOS 7 (he is still on 6, using a 4) and I am no longer receiving notifications or able to see new events added by him.
    Under Settings>Mail, Conracts, Calendars> Calendars
    New invitation Alerts: on
    Sync: All Events
    Shared Calendar Alerts: On
    In the Calendar App, the shared calendar is selected. I can view all old events.
    Any help would be GREATLY appreciated. We use this almost daily!

    Basics from the manual still remain:  restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as new.

  • Yahoo Calendar Sync no longer works

    I get errors trying to sync with my yahoo calendar. Sometimes I get some strange error code and a message that says "Check Documnetation" and other times Desktop Manager crashes. If it crashes it won't stop crashing until I reboot my computer.
    I've noticed that there are quite a few people out there having this problem all of a sudden. Up until now, I've had no problems syncing. Can anyone help? Is there any ideas how to resolve the issue?
    Thanks!

    Posting a "me too". 
    I've had the BB for about a month and the sync with Yahoo worked great, then stopped a week or two ago.  I assumed user error (me) and did uninstalls and re-installs.  Glad to know it might not be my error and will watch this stream to see if a fix appears. 
    My address book syncs with the addresses in Vista's Windows Mail, and has continued to work fine.  Only Yahoo has become a problem for me.

  • Help! my printer no longer works after 10.4.10 upgrade

    I have a canon pixma ip4200 printer, worked fine for 2 years. Since I upgraded to 10.4.10 my ibook can't find it. I've reinstalled the canon latest driver, setup utility, checked my usb ports (both fine) and cable, tried disk utility on my hard drive, tried the native printer setup utility, all to no avail. Anyone have any ideas? I'm terribly vexed! thanks.

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    Printers can be a real headache sometimes. You might see if Cannon has a support site that can help you with this. All of my HP's worked fine after the 10.4.10 update. But when I got the MBP, which is also running 10.4.10, my 1022 LaserJet didn't install the same, and shows the generic printer icon instead of the LaserJet icon. Sigh. But at least it works.
    Did you uninstall the previous driver? Sometimes that is recommended before installing a new one. Did you try uninstalling the printer and then reinstalling it?
    Good luck!

  • Help! FCS 7 no longer working properly

    I have been using Final Cut Studio 7.0.3 on my Mac Pro under Snow Leopard for the past four or five years. It has always worked flawlessly. Suddenly three days ago everything has fallen apart. First it would freeze on launch. I tried removing all preferences, no change. I then removed all plugins and it opens, but now it won't recognize my input device no matter what I plug in. The Firewire port is working properly, as I tested it with hard drives. My camera (a Canon GL2) shows "DV in" when connected. But whether I use the GL2, another camera, or my Matrox box, it keeps saying no input device is connected.
    I'm now at wit's end. Any ideas what else I could try before going for a full re-install of the app?

    I had tried repairing disk permissions, but it didn't help. I had not thought of zapping the PRAM, so I tried that but it also didn't help. FCP would launch but would not recognize any input device.
    I tried re-installing FCP but that didn't help either. Same problems as before. I then re-installed Snow Leopard. I'm still having the same problems. No camera is recognized regardless of which Firewire port it's attached to. I've tried different cables and both FW400 and FW800 ports. All FW drives are operating fine on those same ports, so I'm completely puzzled.
    When the camera is turned off and connected, FCP launches but reports that no device is connected. This is somewhat expected because the camera is turned off. But when the camera is turned on, FCP freezes on launch. If I keep the camera off and then turn it on after FCP launches, it still reports no device attached.
    I'm wondering if my Mac Pro's Firewire subsystem is flaky and causing these problems.

  • HELP! Delete message no longer works in Hub on Q10

    The touch and hold to highlight and delete a message from within BB Hub (i.e. without opening the message) on my Q10 just suddenly stopped working! Not sure when it stopped working exactly - just in the past week or two - and the only *possible change I made lately is upgrading BBM...but I don't use BBM so I highly doubt it's that. My software is fully up to date and I've tried powering off and on again. No luck. I've looked at all the guidance and manuals and forums and can't see any settings I might have inadvertently unset or anyone else with the same issue.
    Anyone have any suggestions? Do we think this is a software or hardware issue? (Except I'm ruling out hardware because there are no other issues with my touch screen functionality).
    Any help more than welcome!!

  • Please Help - PDF File icon No longer working???

    Ok this may sound a bit wierd, but bare with me.  Ok so I just got a new laptop because my old one was going a little wonky..... long story short, it's gone.  So I was transfering some pdf files that I had backed up to an external drive onto my new system.  Both systems are running on Windows 7 Ultimate.  So in a folder I have a number of PDF's stored.  When I open the folder I see all the files, but they all look the same, they all have the default Adobe reader icon.  This is fine, but I would much rather have my old view back.  I used to open the folder and see all of the Covers of the books that are in the pdf's.  How can I get the covers to show as the file icon again as oposed to the Adobe file icon?  There has to be something that I'm missing.  Sorry to have rambled on. I look forward to hearing your sugestions.

    Thanx for the suggestion.  I did the steps that i found on google to create the enable/disable thumbnail option and changing it to enable, i can tell it has changed to enable because other file types show the thumbnails but the pdf files are still not showing.

  • Help please!  itunes no longer works at all

    Hi! I've been dealing with this for weeks now, and thought i'd ask for help. When I try to open itunes it sends me the message that says "itunes has encountered a problem and needs to close." and then it gives me the option of sending an error report or not. This has been happening for weeks. It seems that it is a problem with quicktime so i have tried to uninstall quicktime, but when i do that it says that there was a fatal error and quicktime could not be uninstalled. So then I have just tried to update it with the new update for quicktime and for itunes, both separately and together and neither of those fix the problem. I then downloaded the windows install cleanup and deleted the windows intall on both itunes and quicktime and then re-downloaded, but still itunes will not open, i only get the same message that hays that it has encountered a problem." Also, when I tried to download itunes before it told me that itunes could not install because there was a problem with quicktime. Help, I have pretty much exhausted my options. I don't know what else to do at this point! Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

    okay, something peculiar has been installed on your PC at some stage. (the vast bulk of those should also be showing up in your \Program files\QuickTime folder.)
    let's try extricating ourselves from this.
    Download and install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. then use it to clear any existing QuickTime installation configuration information from your PC:
    Description of the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility
    Next, we’ll manually remove leftover program files and folders.
    1. On the Start menu, click My Computer (or double-click My Computer on the Desktop).
    2. In My Computer, open Local Disk.
    3. Open Program Files.
    4. Right-click on the QuickTime folder and click Delete from the shortcut menu.
    5. Navigate to C:\Windows\system32\.
    6. Remove the files and folders mentioning "QuickTime" that you listed in your previous reply.
    7. Restart your computer.
    next, we'll try to get a fresh copy of QuickTime into your PC by doing a repair install of itunes.
    switch off antivirus and antispyware applications prior to the repair install.
    go into Add/Remove and select itunes. click "Change" and then click "Repair".
    if the repair install goes through okay, restart the PC and try launching itunes again. does it launch properly now?

  • Help! Adobe CS4 no longer working with Canon or Brother printers, & both drivers are current.

    Since upgrading to CS4 in 2009, I can no longer print PDFs (from Acrobat or Preview) to my two printers: Canon MP600 or Brother HL-5250DN. I also cannot print from InDesign. I can print, however, from Photoshop & Illustrator. Drivers for both Canon & Brother have been updated & installed. My specs are shown below. I am bidding on Leopard 10.5, since Snow Leopard sounds awful, but I fear that may compound my problems rather than solve them. Any thoughts? Thanks! ~Hurtin' in Austin

    Updated to Mavericks yesterday and noticed pretty soon that the setting for not receiving notifications from my shared calendars is no longer working. Has anyone else got this problem and more importantly, does anyone have a solution for this?

    Hey Scottie,
    Do you have firewall software running on the PC's and Mac?
    Do you see the same issue with the firewalls disabled?

  • Kuler no longer working in InDesign CS4

    Hi
    I've been googling this a lot but haven't found a (working) solution yet. I did find a link to what could be a solution, but the link is not working anymore.
    I'm an IT guy in an office where we have a small team of four people using Adobe Creative Suite 4. Recently they contacted me asking for help because Kuler was no longer working for them (it stopped working for all four).
    I installed InDesign CS4 on my own machine only to see that it does not work for me either. The error message is "No internet connection detected. Your computer must be online in order to search or access kuler themes".
    When I go to Windows -> Extensions -> Connections I'm able to login, but not able to search for updates, I just get "The update server is unavailable".
    When running the Kuler Air app I just get "kuler klash, please try again later".
    Because we're a big company we do of course have antivirus and firewalls. To make sure that the problem isn't because of this I installed InDesign on a machine (server) on a completely different network with less strict firewall and no antivirus on the machine, but It's just the same error message as before.
    Our machines are running Windows 7 Enterprise (the extra test was done on a Windows 2012 Server).
    Is Kuler just not working for CS4 anymore?
    Looking forward to a clarification on this problem.

    The Kuler team recently rebuilt the backend of the Kuler service for security, maintenance, and peformance reasons.  (the old back-end was showing signs of failure). 
    Anyway, it seems the new backend is not working with old Kuler APIs (CS3, CS4, and the air app and mac widget).  Adobe typically provides support for up to two versions back.  At the moment, that's CS5 or newer.  So, I'm afraid it's not likely that you can expect a fix for CS4.
    At this point, your team can use the web application to browse, create, and search themes.  They can also download themes as ASE files (on the website) to import into InDesign CS4. 

  • Calendar invites do not work

    Since me and my partner updated to IOS 7 yesterday on our iPhone's the calendar invites no longer work. We set them up and send them but the other person never receives the invite to accept?

    I too am having this issue. Both my Gmail and my Work's ActiveSync Exchange emails are setup on my phone. Calendar and Email are turned ON for both. Sending Meeting requests to either my gmail or work email do not pop up with notifications in the calendar up. Badge icons do not appear on the calendar app.
    Inside of the calendar app, the inbox section doesn't show anything.
    If i go to the date and time on the calendar for the event, it is already there on the calendar, as if it has been accepted.
    my notification settings for calendar are:
    show alerts
    show badge app icon
    show in notification center
    show on lock screen
    I've tried disabling and re-enabling background up refresh (the global setting, there isn't an individual setting for calendars) this also did not work.

  • HT5029 Calendar subscriptions no longer show

    My calendar subscriptions no longer show in any of my calendars (iCloud, computer, iPad, iPhone). What has changed?

    OK, so two days and 47 views later tells me that this question is not going to be answered here. After looking at a post done today, I've come to the conclusion that subscribed calendars and published calendars are no longer working with MobileMe.
    My only alternative is to sync all my calendars with my child's computer at this point so that she can see the two that pertain to her.
