How can I sync my iMac Calendar to my iPhone 4S?

I cannot seem to get events synced from my iMac (running LION) to my iPhone 4S!
What am doing wrong? Am I omitting something?

Hi jenniferfromajax!
I have an article that can explain to you how to get information to sync into your computer from an iOS device:
iOS: How to transfer or sync content to your computer
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1296
Specifically, it seems like this is the information that will be most pertinent to you:
Calendars
To sync calendars with your computer, choose "Sync Calendars" or "Sync iCal Calendars."
You can sync calendars with:
Microsoft Outlook 2003, Microsoft Outlook 2007, Microsoft Office 2010 (Windows XP, Windows Vista, or Windows 7)
iCal (Mac OS X)
Microsoft Entourage 2004, Microsoft Entourage 2008
Note: If using Microsoft Entourage, use Microsoft Entourage 2008 12.1.2 or later if syncing with Mac OS X v10.6 or later. If you would like to sync data on your Mac with Entourage, enable syncing between Entourage and Address Book.
Microsoft Outlook 2011 for Mac
Note: If using Microsoft Outlook 2011 for Mac to sync calendars you must update to Microsoft Office 2011 for Mac Service Pack 1 or later.
If you are having difficulty syncing your iPhone with your computer, you may also want to reference this article:

    Question: I have a computer at home and one at work. Can I update my iPod music collection from more than one computer?
    Answer: Yes. When you first connect iPod to your computer, iPod recognizes that computer as its "home" computer. Each time you connect, iPod automatically downloads the music library stored on it. When you connect iPod to a different computer, iTunes will inform you that iPod is linked to a different iTunes library and will ask whether you wish to erase iPod's contents and sync with the new computer's library. If you will be connecting to multiple computers frequently, configure your iPod to manually manage music. This will allow you to selectively drag songs, albums, or playlists from the second computer to your iPod without compromising the existing music.
    Synchronization generally occurs only in one direction, from your computer to your iPod. This means you typically cannot transfer music, automatically or manually, from your iPod to a computer, and you cannot use iPod to copy a music library from one computer to another. An exception to this is the transfer purchases feature which allows you to restore purchased iTunes content to your computer from your iPod. Additionally, if you legally are allowed to copy music or other media files, you can configure your iPod as a storage drive to move media files.

  • How can I sync my IMAC email with my Iphone

    I have two email accounts on my IMAC.  The one email account sync's with my phone but I don't remember how I did it so I can sync my second email account.

    You don't sync mail at all.
    The iphone retrieves it from the server just as you computer does.
    Just set the e-mail account up on the iphone:

    On your iPhone log into the same iCloud account and make sure Calendars are turned on:

  • How can i sync my outlook calendar with my Iphone

    I was trying to import my contact list from my iphone to outlook 2003. There were no entries on  outlook and over 800 on my iphone and it erase them all.  How do I set up my itunes to sync and merge records in both directions without creating duplicates.

    Before syncing contacts with an empty address book app, enter one contact in the address book app on your computer. This will provide a merge prompt with the first sync for this data, which you want to select.
    The same applies with calendar events before syncing calendar events with the Outlook calendar.

  • Multiple calendars have appeared on my Iphone and I am unable to sync all of them to my PC, running Windows 7 and Office 2010. How can I sync all the calendars to my PC, or, merge the calendars on the Iphone so there is only 1 calendar to sync?

    If the hard drive that crashed is the one that stored the itunes library, be sure to restore the library from Time Machine (mac) or whatever backup you use on windows.  That will get back your music.  I suspect that the replacement drive has an empty itunes library and thus, perhaps, the itunes match used that to sync to its servers.
    Try posting in the iTunes Match forum, you'll probably find more knowledgeable folks there.

    How can I sync up my calendar from Microsoft Outlook with my ipad 2? Or do I have to enter in all of the dates individually?

    When the iPad is connected to your computer's iTunes, then on the device's Info tab you should be able to select where to sycn a calendar from - from the iPad manual :
    You can sync calendars from applications such as iCal on a Mac, or from Microsoft Outlook 2003, 2007, or 2010 on a PC. (On a Mac, you can sync calendars with multiple applications. On a PC, you can sync calendars with only one application at a time.)

  • TS3999 how can I sync my icloud calendar with a google calendar

    how can I sync my icould calendar with a google calendar?

    The calendars reside on different servers and as far as I know there isn't a way to sync between them.  You can, of course, add your Google calendar to your devices and continue to use Google to keep it in sync.  If you open the Calendars app on your devices and tap Calendars on the top left, then tap Show All Calendars, your Google and iCloud calendar events will appear together your calendar.  You will only need to decide which one you wish to use as your default when adding new enteries, then set this in Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Default Calendar.

  • HT1296 How do I sync my computer calendar into my iphone?

    How do I sync my computer calendar into my iphone?

    What program is your calendar in on your computer? What computer OS do you use? If it is a supported calendar application, you can connect the iPhone to the computer, open iTunes, on the Info page select the calendar and sync. Too many other variables right now to answer your question easily. Please answer the earlier questions.
