I am losing appointments on my iPhone calendar and also on Outlook

I am losing individual appointments on my iPhone calendar and on my back up Outlook calendar (and previously iCloud).  Is there any good way to prevent this?

This is a long shot, but you might want to open your calendar on icloud.com and check the preferences.  You do this by pressing the gear shaped button on the top right of the calendar on icloud.com and selecting the first option that appears in the drop-down list.  On the window that opens select Advanced at the top.  Here you will see an Old Events & Reminders section.  Make sure none of the three boxes are checked in this section, particularly the second one.  If they are, this may be what's keeping your old calendar events from appearing on your phone, and unchecking the box should restore the old events (although it may take up to several hours for the old events to be re-synced to your phone by iCloud).
Hope this helps!

    Not sure this will work but if you go into the Keyboard preferences, then click the Keyboad Shortcuts tab, and then the '+', you can add your own shortcuts for any application.  I am not sure what happens if you try to override an existing shortcut since I haven't tried using this.
    Edit/Update:
    Probably against my better judgement I'll also throw this out there - there's an Unsanity haxie called Menumaster which might also allow you to do what you want.  Against my better judgement because personally I stay clear of haxies.  It's (all haxies) probably almost certain to break in Lion.  They always do with each major release.

  • I lost all my appointments on my iPhone calendar. What can I do.

    I lost all my appointments on my iPhone calendar. What can I do? Why did this happen? How can I prevent it from happening again? FYI: I am on the cloud.

        Thank you for reaching out, rsweat. Sorry to hear about all of your calendar appointments disappearing from your phone. That is definitely not normal. Do you recall any new updates being downloaded prior to this issues being experienced? Did you have appointments backed up via iCloud or iTunes? You may be able to recover them via a restore.

    I use an iPhone 5, and want to sync my phone calendar and contacts with Outlook 7 calendar and contacts; two problems--I now get dozens of new calendars every time, and my outlook calendar will not sync at all.; meaning that date entries on Outlook do not come across ot iPhone.

    It is unusual for the calendar to sync and not the contacts in Outlook. I've worked with Outlook for years. You didn't answer what computer OS you are using. If it is Windows, have you tried to reset the sync history in iTunes? Do that by opening iTunes, go to Edit>Preferences>Devices and click on reset sync history. If you have done this and it doesn't help, then we can try and run scanpst.exe on your Outlook file and see if there are any errors. Search your computer for that file, however it normally resides in one of the Microsoft Office folders in the folder Program files. After that, you can see if it will sync.

  • Sync calendar and contacts between Outlook 2013 and iPhone 4

    I am trying to sync my calendars and contacts between Outlook 2013 (Office 365 Home Premium) and my iPhone 4 (iOS 7.0.4).  I have created a confusing mess for myself and do not recognize all of the calendars that appear in Outlook or the iPhone.  I
    abandoned the use of the iCloud because the iCloud calendar invitations my coworkers received in MS Outlook are too confusing to read.
    Is there a proven process for syncing when i add a new contact or calendar event in one device so that it shows up simultaneously in the other?  If the process is too laborious, is there an Outlook add-on?
    I have tried the Exchange ActiveSync but I can't get this to work smoothly.  I can't move recurring calendar events that started in the past.  Further, I have to navigate 2 separate data files in outlook to find the right calendar or inbox.
    I am not sure if Exchange and Exchange ActiveSync are the same or not.
    Additionally, this is a private domain address (my work email).

    Hi,
    Basically, Exchange ActiveSync and Exchange are two different sets of protocols, but both of them have the feature to sync contacts and calendars between different devices.
    If your company provides an Exchange account for you, just setup it in Outlook Client, it will sync the contacts and calendars between clients and the Server.
    If you have an Outlook.com(Hotmail) or any other email account that supports Exchange Activesync, just set it up in Outlook, the contacts and calendars will also sync.
    As for iPhone, just make sure it also uses the same protocol.
    If there's anything wrong with the account sync on PC, rename the current data file to ".old", let Outlook create a new one to sync, or we can create a new profile to setup the account:

  • Problem - I input a new event into my iPhone calendar and it does not update on my iMac or iPad. I have loaded the latest software on all devices and have switched over to iCloud. Suggestions?

    Problem - I input a new event into my iPhone calendar and it does not update on my iMac or iPad calendars. I have loaded the latest software on all devices and have switched over to iCloud. Suggestions?

    On the iMac open System Prerferences > iCloud
    Deselect the box next to Calendars then reselect then restart the iMac.
    On the iPad, tap Settings > iCloud
    Switch Calendars off then back on then reset the iPad.
    Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home button down at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    Hopefully the event synced over all the devices.

  • I am having multiple issues with syncing my iphone calendar and outlook There are often 1 hour time differences in the entries on the 2 devices and sometimes events that have been amended are not updated on iphone I mostly enter items on my laptop

    I am having multiple issues with syncing my iphone calendar and outlook calendar on my laptop
    I mostly enter the original items on my laptop
    There are often 1 hour time differences in the entries on the 2 devices and sometimes events that have been amended are not updated on iphone

    This sounds like an error in Time Zone support. The time zone needs to be the same in Outlook as well as the phone.

  • My iphone calendar stopped syncing with outlook 7 thru the cloud. I clicked on tools, trust center, add ins. icloud add in had been disabled. I tried to re enable it but was told that this could only be done by administrator. I am the admin. Help????

    My iphone calendar stopped syncing with outlook 7 thru the cloud. I clicked on outlook tools, trust center, add ins. I noted that icloud add in had been disabled. I tried to re enable it but got a message that this change could only be done by administrator. I am the administrator. Help???? Any ideas?

    I do not believe this. I have been going nuts trying everything as in prior posts, and this has been a problem for users at least since 2010. I had this problem a long time ago and didn't pay too much attention to it because it was my iPad, and I depended on my BB a a base calander to feed Outlook. I became very concerned within the past week when I switched my BB to iPhone 5s, and was carrying both because I still needed to carry the BB for new calander enteries to sync up to Outlook 2007.
    I had followed http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1925 and delete the apple s/w and re-installed. But according to the previous post, it appears that the issue was in the data - which was not deleted during all these deinstalls nor overridden with the new installs.
    I am a XP user, so my files are in documents and settings/(username) both application data and \local settings\application data, but I also have safari and quicktime installed as well and didn't want to just blow entire high level folders if I didn't have to.
    So I followed http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1925 then purged several apple folders in my windows profile and this definitely blew apple computer\preferences away. What I did was a little clumbsy, and desperate, but it worked. I am finally back in business.
    However, I would like to see someone fine tune this and determine if it was just the preferences folder that needed to be deleted so that iTunes needed to rebuild it, or if there were other filoes that were apparently corrupted away, just to get this to the minimum number of steps to fix the issue.
    BUT THANKS - This has been the most HELPFUL thread to get me syncing agai!!!!

  • Can I synch my Outlook for Mac 2011 calendars and contacts with my iPhone calendars and contacts?

    I have Outlook for Mac 2011 and also use OSx Mountain Lion on my iMac.  I want to synch my Calendar and Contacts from Outlook with my iOS devices (iPhone 5 and iPad).  How can I do this so I don't have two calendars and two contacts that don't sync with each other?

    if you don't have a online account that outlook is syncing the calendar with you can't sync it with anything else.
    Just because you enter a appointment, or something, in the outlook calendar that does not auto sync it with other devices unless you have it setup to sync the local, on computer, calendar with a online account of some type. That could be outlook.com or office365 or google or even apple icloud. Once you setup a online account of some type to sync the local calendar with then you can sync that account calendar with orher devices.
    This is what the other poster was trying to say but did not fully explain with the mention of icloud.

  • How do I upload my contacts, calendar and notes from outlook 2007 to my new iPad with retina display

    I just cleaned up my outlook 2007 contact files.
    I have an iPhone 5, a new iPad with retina display, and a PC, which is where the outlook program is.
    I also have an iCloud account
    How do I get the contacts, calendar and notes from outlook to any of these devices, so I can have one synced contact file on all three devices?
    I'm sure I am not the first one asking about this but I am new to Apple, and loving it.

    With your device connected and iTunes open, navigate to the 'info' tab and scroll down. You'll see the option to sync contacts and such from outlook.

    Sounds like a slam dunk to me.  While I think a person would get MORE than $200 for both phones, the new phone starts at $199 (16gb).  Now if  you're talking about buying the new phone outright, that's a different story and I would agree that you're right.

  • TS4108 Hello, all my Contacts from iPhone 5s and also from iCloud disappeared yesterday. Is it possible to get them back? Please Help. Thank you.

    Hello,
    All my Contacts from iPhone 5s and also from iCloud disappeared yesterday. Can I get them back?
    Please Help.

    If you begin syncing contacts with iCloud you will be given the option to merge your contacts with the accout.  If you do, your contacts will be uploaded to the account and will appear on both your phone and hers (if she is sharing the same account/ID).  Be aware that if you do this, if she then deletes your contacts from her device, they will also be deleted from yours and they will be lost.  For this reason, it's usually recommended that different users maintain separate iCloud accounts with separate IDs, which makes it easier for users to restore contacts from iCloud.
