HT204053 My contacts and calenders stopped syncing on my I pad and iPhone any ideas?

My contacts and calenders stopped syncing between my iPad and my iPhone. It worked for a couple of moths when I first set it up.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Contacts not syncing.
First check that all your settings are correct, that contact syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
Make sure the contacts you are adding are added to your 'iCloud' group and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud group (you can do this by checking in groups), non iCloud contacts will not sync.
If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your contacts are in the iCloud group, you might try unchecking contact syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling contact syncing.
Calendars not syncing.
First check that all your settings are correct, that calendar syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
Make sure the calendars you are using are in your 'iCloud' account and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud account (you can do this by clicking/tapping the calendar button in the top left corner of the application ), non iCloud calendars will not sync.
If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your calendars are in the iCloud account, you might try unchecking calendar syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling calendar syncing settings.

    Not all of my playlists and songs sync from my Mac to my iphone, any ideas?

    Just got through flailing with the same problem within the hour.  It turned out I had music purchased with an earlier Apple ID in iTunes.  My solution was to authorize the computer in iTunes with the previous ID and then all music would sync.  Might try that.

  • My iphone 5 stopped syncing to outlook email, calender and contacts after the IT department switched from a HP exchange server to MS2010 exchange server.  Help?

    Try deleting your exchange account on your iPhone, then adding it again fresh.  I had the same problem when we upgraded servers and this fix worked for me.

  • My iPhone and iCloud stopped syncing

    My contacts and calendars (iCal and Google) were syncing fine until a few weeks ago, when they suddenly stopped.  Anything I add to the phone doesn't go on the MacBook, and vice versa.  I've checked my settings on my phone, and all appears fine.  I have not yet upgraded to iOS6, due to the map issue, and would prefer not to until that's fixed. Any ideas?

    Hello..
    None of them were syncing..
    I deleted the calendar on the ipad first..and removed all the entries and turned it back on and it seemed to work...
    I did the same to iphone and it now also seems to work..
    Although it does show some appts on my iphone that still won't sync to the cloud..
    My ipad is turned off right now for the calendar...
    When I replace the missing appt on the icloud it shows doubled up on my iphone...
    Notice below(sorry about the sideways pic)..that the entry Georgia in orange had disappeared from icloud but remained on my phone..
    Even though the iphone seems to be working the entry Georgia will not sync back but is on the ipad and iphone...
    I checked all the calendars

  • Why have reminders and calendars stopped syncing automatically?

    why have reminders and calendars stopped syncing automatically?

    If you upgraded the iOS version on them to iOS 7, and you haven't upgraded your iTunes to at least 11.1 then that could be the cause of your issues.

  • My macbook pro is running 10.10.1 and has stopped syncing reminders and calendar events to iCloud.

    My macbook pro is running 10.10.1 and has stopped syncing reminders and calendar events to iCloud. Changes made to iCloud directly DO update to my machine, so the communication issue is one way only. When I make a change to the calendar or reminders on my machine, it will often bog down and run slowly. I have done several trouble shooting steps without result. these include:
    Restarting my computer.
    Running Disk Utility diagnostics for both permissions and disk verification.
    Checking that my internet and network is working.
    Checking that I am properly logged in to iCloud with my ID on my machine and that I have set everything to sync.
    Checking my iCloud settings to stop syncing Reminders and Calendars and then setting them back to sync again.
    Any suggestions?

    1. Calendars in the On My Mac or On My iPhone/iPad/iPod category, and calendars that sync with other network services such as Google, will not sync with iCloud.
    2. Back up all data, then take all the applicable steps in these support articles:
    iCloud: Troubleshooting iCloud Calendar
    iCloud: Advanced Calendar and iCal troubleshooting
    Nearly all sync issues should be resolved that way. Please make sure you've taken all the steps and tested adequately before continuing.
    3. If there are any calendars on your Mac that you don't synchronize with iCloud, export them by selecting them in the calendar list and then selecting
              File ▹ Export ▹ Export…
    from the menu bar. Quit Calendar.
    4. Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:
    ~/Library/Calendars
    Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
              Services ▹ Reveal
    from the contextual menu.* A Finder window should open with a folder selected. Move that folder to the Desktop.
    5. Launch Calendar. Your calendars will initially be gone, but they should resynchronize with iCloud. If they don't, uncheck the boxes marked Calendars and Reminders in the iCloud preference pane, then re-check them.
    6. Import the calendars you exported in Step 3, if any, by double-clicking the files.
    7. If the issue is resolved, close the Finder window you opened in Step 4. Delete the exported files and the Calendars folder on the Desktop.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination  command-C. In the Finder, select
              Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

  • HT1657 hi ! just rented a movie through an apple tv and it stopped, i cant get it back and when go to check rentals its like in process and nothing is hapening still in process, why is that? can u fix it?

    hi ! just rented a movie through an apple tv and it stopped, i cant get it back and when go to check rentals its like in process and nothing is hapening still in process, why is that? can u fix it?

    Mr. Churchill - First, to answer your last questions:
    Yes, the movie is fully downloaded, all 3.69 GBs.
    No the Apple TV has 127.5 GBs of its 144.63 GBs free.
    Second, I tried turning the Time Capsule WiFi rounter and Apple TV off (for at least two or three minutes, not the usual 10 seconds recommended) and I still could not move the movie.
    Third, I severed the link and set it up again re-synced all 5,103 items back and still when I move the movies to the Apple TV box and Apply it, after 35 seconds it stops the sync and moves it back the the Rented Movies box.
    Though I have set my Apple TV to sync with my MacBook Pro I cannot find a way to connect it to other than shared library, but not the "not shared library" (Is this what the Rented Movies are?). Is what Fletch is talking about int the "Rental Movies not showing up on Apple TV" discussion my problem and a solution?

    there are three possibilities: you have not upgraded to version 2.0 or in Summary on the ATV device in iTunes, you should look whether you have it set up to only sync or otherwise disables movie syncing, or you have not paired your Mac to the ATV (on your tv, settings/computers/connect to itunes library - not shared library)

    Or is it something else?

  • My i phone was stolen and now I need to upload my contact to my i cloud from my I tunes...any ideas how to import contacts into i cloud, with either i tunes or with old iphone

    My i phone was stolen and now I need to upload my contacts to my i cloud from my I tunes...any ideas how to import contacts into i cloud, with either i tunes or with old iphone?

    If you have the contacts on the phone you can sync the phone to the computer. The contacts should then show in address book. At this point you can sync the address book data to iCloud. You have to make sure the iCloud account is setup on the computer and this will not work unless the computer is running 10.7.2 of course. There are other ways to add the contacts to iCloud like through the phone but the phone must be running iOS5. If it is you can simply add the cloud account to the phone and toggle the contacts slider. You will get a prompt to keep or delete the contact data. Of course you keep. Then you will get a prompt to merge at which point you do. This should merge the contacts on the phone with iCloud. Hope this helps.

  • I cannot edit pictures in my iphotos.  I am able to start new projects but my calenders and books that I was working on are frozen.  Any ideas on how to fix? I spent a lot of time working on these. Thanks

    Any work you do in Lightroom is in the catalog. It is impossible to use Lightroom without a catalog.
    In addition, your photos are filed in a specific location, which is determined when you import the photos (this may be a location you have specified or it may be the default location chosen by Lightroom).
    So ... unless you specifically choose to delete your photos, your photos have not been deleted. To find them, open Lightroom and select File->Open Recent and select each catalog shown there until you find the one with your 170 photos.
    And now ... a word to the wise: as gvb279 and Keith said, you absolutely need to stop doing whatever it is you are doing and learn the basics of Lightroom. You are clearly in need of such basic understanding. In addition to the links given above, there are many valuable instructional tutorials here: Getting Started with Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 5 | Adobe TV

  • I listen to a lot of live performances (house sets that are from 1 hour to 3 hours long) when I start to listen to a set and then stop to do something else on the iPhone when I go back to start to listen to the track it has started from the beginning.

    It sounds like either your hard drive or the SATA cable that connects it to the motherboard are failing. This could be heat related in your case, which is why you see it after it runs awhile. You can take it to the Genius Bar for a free evaluation. If you decide to test it yourself, I usually suggest moving the hard drive to an external enclosure. If it works there for awhile, the cable is probably the issue.

  • Can iTunes be set to play only one song and then stop when the song is finished and not go on to play another unless commanded?

    Can iTunes be set to play only one song and then stop when the song is finished and not go on to play another unless commanded?

    If you uncheck all of the songs, they will only play if explicitly commanded. Command-click in a checkbox and they will all be unchecked. Command-clicking again will check the all again should you want to do that.
