ICal and iPhone items 1 Hour Apart

All my calender items in my phone are showing up 1 hour ahead of how they are listed in iCal. The time on my pc and my iPhone is correct. Does anyone know why this is happening?

Well this sort of helped my problem, it fixed everything up until the second week of March. Now for some reason despite the fact that I selected 'apply to all' when changing the dates back around after fixing the time zone, it moved the items from March 9th forward, 1 hour ahead. What the heck?

Upon syncing my iPhone and mac all of my ical and iPhone calendar events have duplicated. how can i fix this and avoid it in the future?

upon syncing my iPhone and mac all of my ical and iPhone calendar events have duplicated. how can i fix this and avoid it in the future?

Greetings,
Questions:
1. What version of the Mac OS are you running (Apple > About this Mac)?
2. What version of the iOS are you running (Settings > About)?
3. Do you backup your computer (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1427)?
--- If you don't regularly backup your computer, now is the time to start.
4. Do you backup your iPhone (http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766)?
Check the calendar list on the left hand side of iCal. Is it that the individual events are duplicated or is it just that you have the same calendar listed more than once? If its that you have more than 1 copy of each calendar, you can delete one of the duplicate calendars to eliminate the duplicates.
If you find that it is the individual events that are duplicated then there are 2 options:
1. Restore your computer iCal database or iPhone from a backup made before the duplication occurred.
2. Use a duplication removal program (or do it by hand) to remove the duplicates: http://www.nhoj.co.uk/icaldupedeleter/
If you have a backup made before the duplication occurred, reply back with what kind of backup you have and I'll suggest how to recover the calendars.
To avoid this issue in the future:
Keep regular backups. They are your best defense against data anomalies which are a fact of life in computers (although hopefully rare).
Keep your computer and iPhone software fully up to date (Apple > Software Update / Settings > General > Software Update).
Make sure the date and time on your computer and iPhone are correct before you sync the two devices.
Make sure the cable connections between the two is solid and that the cable shows no signs of physical damage.
Hope that information helps.

ICal and iPhone's calendar are off by 1 hour

Anyone else have this problem? The calendar on my computer is fine, but the one on my iphone is 1 hour off...

Just a thought - have you got both machines set for the same Time Zone?
iPhone - Settings : Date and Time : Time Zone
also, check the Calendar setting lower down.
Then check your MacBook's time zone setting too

ICal and iPhone Syncing, keeping work and personal apart.

ok im sorry if someone has asked this befor but im new to the whole iphone thing and mac in general. ok i have an iphone, and we use ical as out work calender. is there a way i can sync my work calender to my iphone but not my personal calender details i have on my iphone calender to works ical. if tht makes scene...?

Yes, you can create separate calendars in iCal, and have them sync separately. All controlled inside iTunes when you sync your phone, or Mobileme.

Since Time Change, iCal and iPhone Calendar Time Are All Messed Up

Ever since the most recent daylight-savings time change, I noticed all events I created in iCal, when synced with my iPhone, became an hour off. If I edit the event on the iPhone, it stays the correct time on my iPhone, but when it syncs with iCal again, the time on iCal goes off by another hour, even though the time for the event on the iPhone stays correct. (Hopefully that makes sense) Has anyone else experienced this problem? It is incredibly annoying, because now I have no trust in any of my calendar entries as to what the correct time is.
As an example: I created an event for Sunday the 16th on iCal on my Mac for a 1-hour soccer game from 8:00PM - 9:00PM. When I synced my iPhone, I noticed a few days later that the event on my iPhone now said the event was from 9:00PM - 10:00PM...one hour off! I edited the event on my iPhone, and re-synced. Now my iPhone has the correct time (which I manually edited on the phone) but iCal now says the event goes from 7:00PM - 8:00PM. Again, an hour off, but in the reverse direction (an hour off early, rather than late). When I sync now, even though the times on the iPhone and the times on iCal don't match, they do not change...it's as if either the computer or the phone didn't recognize daylight savings time or something, and thinks it has the correct time for the event. Both my Mac and my iPhone's clocks do display the correct time and date, however, so it's not like the system clock is off. It is completely bizarre, and I entered my entire teams schedule this way, so ALL games were off, and now is completely screwed up. Please help.

Yes, I did. I posted an identical post in the iPhone forum since no one answered here. http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1791145&tstart=0
The first reply solved the problem. It involved the Time Zone setting in iCal Advanced preferences for me.

ICal and iPhone sync dates off by 1hour????

Can anyone explain to me why my iCal events are consistently 1 hour ahead of all events entered on my iPhone after I sync? The time zone sync is activated on my phone and iCal but I can't seem to get it straight.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

It could be the hidden time zone settings.
The problem is that iPhone has TWO time zone settings -- one for time display and one for the calendar.
Under Settings->General->Date & Time, there is a time zone setting if "Set Automatically" is turned off.
Under Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars, there is a setting, too, but it's not obvious. You must scroll to the bottom of this window and select Time Zone Support, then turn it off. It's on by default.
What confuses the user is that the two settings can be different. The latter affects only the calendar.

Ical and iphone syncing issues

I'll pile on with my own iphone/ical sync issue, to add to all the others i see.
my iphone and ical synched just fine from the start, but since installing software updates, suddenly the calendar on iphone will not accept any new information.
originally, i'd set up my entourage to sync to ical, and in turn 'sync' to iphone, but to test if this runaround was the problem, i've followed some of the other instructions laid out elswhere on this board to set up a test calendar on ical.
this hasn't worked either. nor will the iphone calendar accept any new info when i explicitly direct the itunes software to replace info.
i've also tried resetting everything, but those stubborn pre-software update calendar items remain on my iphone, completely unchanged.
anyone have any ideas?

The same thing happened to me. As of today's update (11/16) I got to the root of the problem. go into itunes with iphone connected. select information, and if your problem is mine, you will see that all ical and mailbox synching options are now strangely unchecked. check the boxes for what you want to synch. click apply. for an unknown reason, the software update then reveals that it thinks your phone is synching to another account. just keep clicking through, selecting synching with your computer and "new" account. ditto for the keychain issues. presto! it all synchs correctly again.
hope this helps!

Duplicate All-Day events in Entourage, iCal and iPhone

When I sync my iPhone calendars at work, I am getting duplicate all day events (ie, birthdays, anniversary, etc). I'm using the Entourage sync services to create an iCal.
Is anyone having a similar problem or solution?
Thanks!

I have had a similar problem with all-day events in Entourage.
So far, I have had to manually delete the unwanted all-day events, but once deleted, they have not come back.
My theory is this: I already was syncing Entourage and iCal even before the iPhone. When I added the iPhone, it added a Calendar called "Entourage" to the iCal. It synced Entourage, my home iCal, my work iCal, and the iPhone to the iCal "Entourage" Calendar, leading to multiple junk. I added an application to my Mac which automatically keeps track of library books I have checked out, and puts the due dates on my iCal. When I added this, I got a whole new round of double all-day events.
You can delete them either in Entourage or in the iPhone, but I have gotten more reliable results doing it in Entourage.
A keyboard shortcut is to point at the event with your mouse and then type {Apple Key} {backwards delete} d
Hope this helps.

Time Zone Management iCal and iPhone

I have a vacation coming up from California, to paris, to london, to Ireland, to Chicago,to Detroit and finally California. I think that's 5 time zones. I have all of the events schedule in times that would reflect the time zone that I will be in. But there are lots of settings in ical and the iphone (no/yes time zone support, floating time or time zone of the event.
How do you travelers set this stuff up and use it effectively?

A restore of my iphone solved my problem.

Todo for ical and iphone

I use the to do list with ical and it works fine, but it doesn't sync with my iphone.
Can anyone recommend an easy to do package that integrates with ical to do and can be synced and updated on my iphone??
Thanks in advance.
M

I don't think there is a way to this. I wish apple would make the todo list available and syncable with the iphone. How do we get apple to do this. It is such a pain not having this feature. The other thing that I use is quickcal as a way of putting info into ical. Its a bit buggy though unfortunately. Be great if apple made a good widget version of this that worked well.
Sorry I can't be of more help

Time zone is set to Berlin, Germany on my iphone as well as on my G5.
Same thing is happening when syncing the iphone with my google calendar.

Time on Mac and iphone is 1 hour ahead today

Hi,
I don't know where to ask this question, but today I've noticed that both my MacBook Pro and my iPhone are 1 hour ahead. Both are set to set the time and time zone automatically using current location. Both realize, correctly, that I am in London, England and the computer even says correctly that it is British Summer Time. The computer gets its time from Apple Europe (time.euro.apple.com). They both have the correct date. But although it is now 10:56 AM in London (according to my watch, my girlfriend's phone, my girlfriend's supervisor who she's meeting with now for her 11 AM meeting, and the office wall clock), both my iPhone and computer say 11:56 AM. Does anyone know what could be wrong? I've only noticed this today, but my girlfriend said she saw that my iPhone was off yesterday as well. My laptop is a 2006 Macbook Pro, with Snowleopard 10.6.7 and my iPhone has iOS 4.3.3 (and isn't unlocked or jailbroken or anything similar). I can fix the problem by turning off the automatic time and setting it by hand, but that's a bit annoying. Anyone have any ideas what could be wrong?

This is actually an improvement so you have no need to worry.
I usually have my E65 on 'auto update' as the network I use supports this feature but I disabled it and saw "Athens +3" as my timezone.
I then altered the date to November and checked again and it said "Athens +2" so I'm thining they've programmed the time software to alter the DST setting for you automatically without any manual intervention from yourself.
Also this improvement means if you add cities to the 'World Cities" list. The time there is accurate too. Before (on my N70), it never altered my world city list to account for DST.

ICal and iPhone calendars are off by 1 hour from each other

My iCal on desktop G5 and my iCal on my iPhone are syncing but they are an hour off of each other--in other words if I have a lunch scheduled for 11:00 on my desktop G5, it shows at 12:00 on my iPhone. I checked the clocks and they are both correctly on eastern standard time. Any suggestions?

It could be the hidden time zone settings.

Calendar from Now-Up-To-Date sync wtih iCal and iPhone

I've been struggling to sync my current Now Up To Date calendar with my iphone and I think I have a solution for at least a one-way sync. Here's a copy of my post from another forum. I hope it helps others....
Does anyone else have a better solution?
I've been using my Treo as a go-between for Now Up To Date and iCal with software from The Missing Sync. This seems to work as a one-way sync from NUD to my iCal. I sent an email to them asking for help and here's their reply:
Description of problem:
Hi. I've been trying to use your software to get my data from Now Up To Date (NUD) to iCal so that I can have it on my iPhone. I know you don't support the iPhone, but maybe you can see if my approach is valid at all. I have a profile in The Missing Sync that only uses the NUD conduit. It is able to get any changes to my Treo 700p just fine. Then I made another profile that only uses the Mark/Space Tasks and Events conduits to get that data from the Treo to iCal. Somehow it worked a few times, but not any more. Is my idea a good one? Should I keep trying or give it up?
Steps to Reproduce:
Here's my steps.
1) Profile named NUD Treo. Has active only the NUD conduit, set to synchronize. I run the sync from the Treo and all changes I made in NUD are transfered to the Treo just fine.
2) I change to the profile named Treo iCal. I have slected the two condiuts, Mark/Space Events and Mark/Space Tasks. I have it set to synchronize all categories. When I run the sync from the Treo, it works for a bit, but none of the changes show up in iCal. Even though the items show in the Treo's calendar, they don't transfer to iCal.
A couple of times when I did the transfer I saw a comment "pushing from handheld".... and on those syncs the data showed up. But it doesn't always say that and the data doesn't transfer on thos syncs.
The reply from The Missing Sync's Support:
Hello,
Yes, that procedure should work.
First, update to 5.1.2 if you haven't done so yet. http://www.markspace.com/ftp/missingsyncpalmos5.1.2.dmg
Then follow these directions to have the Palm overwrite the Mac's Address Book and iCal.
