ICal calendars on my Mac don't sync with iCloud

Am I missing something? When I configured iCloud, I noticed that I suddenly had duplicates of my Address Book and Calenders. My Mac can sync with my phone, my phone can sync with iCloud, but I can't sync my Mac with iCloud.
Maybe I'm too lazy and haven't read enough about it, but it seems like a total cluster.
So now, when I want to update my calendar on my Mac, I have to go to iCloud instead of using iCal.
Anyway, if I'm missing something... feel free to point it out. No offense taken

I have something similar and i will try to explain with my rusty english.
I have an ID on iCloud but i can't sync the iCal events.
On my mac there is everythign (appointment, notes birthdays and so on). On my iCloud there is nothing.
I suppose was something related with the old ID  (one just for ichat, not one of the ID that you pay to receive extra services or a @me.com account).
Now, as soon as the icloud features was installed on my Macbook Air I signed a new ID and initially everything worked fine. Emails on Mail and  contacts were syncronized properly but with the new ID. i did not check iCal account.
So i tried also with the old one (the ichat ID) and all was sync. So i realized that maybe Apple recognized same account or name and merge all the ID in just one.
I was wrong.
The 2 ID's are not linked.
further checks add also this new weird stuff. in any case i cant sync ical accounts. i tried to switch from one to another ID. no way. i checked preferences in iCal on the mac. everything is fine. no way.
do uu have any idea?

  • ICal and reminders on Macbook don't sync with iCloud

    Just now when iCal crashed on my MacBook Pro I realise that it hasn't been syncing with iCloud (lost al lot of appointments).
    Any change made on my iPad, iPhone and on icloud.com syncs perfectly; even back to my macbook!
    The rest on my laptop (notes, iWork apps, mail, contacts) all seem to work and sync perfectly with iCloud.
    However iCal and Reminders made on my laptop just don't sync to iCloud!
    The other way around works nicely (reminders and calendar appointments from iPad, iPhone and iCloud.com appear promptly on the macbook).
    I have tried everything i could find (restarting computer, resetting icloud prefferences, log out and in from icloud, starting new calendar, checking icloud account). Nothing works...
    Any change made from my macbook just doesnt make it to other devices. From other devices back to my mac do work.
    On my macbook all calendars I have are in iCloud.
    iCloud is active (with same login as for other devices)
    Would be great if someone could help me with this one!
    Thanks!

  • I have set up all my mac devices to sync with iCloud and all work except for email. When I delete on one device, the delete doesn't occur on the other devices.

    I have set up all my mac devices to sync with iCloud and all applications work except for email. Incoming messages appear on all devices but when I delete on one device, the delete doesn't occur on the other devices.

    Thank you for your interest. I use apple mail to access my two accounts -I guess they are 3rd party accounts. One is a gmail acount and the other is a bigpond account. I admit to a lack of a high level of literacy when it comes to the language around all of this. For example, I am aware that I have an iCloud email account as I managed to set it up, but don't really understand the purpose of it as the last thing I need is yet another email account to oversee.

  • Events made on iPad calendar(through yahoo account) don't sync with yahoo calendar

    Events made on iPad calendar (through my yahoo account) don't sync with yahoo calendar on the Web. I'm on latest iOS both on iPad and iPhone4. Any ideas?
    Thanks

    Raymondo1,
    Glad this helpped! 
    I am a PC user so cannot help with your Mac interfaces.  I can sync (crudely) my Windows 7 Address book with iTunes.  But, I cannot sync my Windows Mail or Calendar with iTunes (unless I have Microsoft Exchange).
    Microsoft Exchange is not available to me.  This is why I use the iPod to sync with to Yahoo for email and Calendar.
    The best I can tell, iTunes does NOT support an interface with Yahoo.
    Have a nice day.

  • When I create a calendar on my mac it automatically syncs with my iPhone but none of the events on that calendar sync with my phone. How do I fix this?

    When I create a calendar on my macbook it automatically syncs with my iPhone, but none of the events on that calendar sync with my iPhone. How do you fix this and make it so everything syncs.

    Using iCoud?
    On the iPhone tap Settings > iCloud
    Make sure Calendars is switched ON.

  • ICal events entered in iPhone don't sync with Mac

    I am suddenly having problems with iCal entries made on my iPhone. They do not seem to sync with my Mac's calendar or on Mobile Me Calendar. I have tried syncing and still nothing. I initially had problems when I switched to the Beta version several months ago, got that fixed but now I'm suddenly finding events I entered on my iPhone not appearing on my Mac's calendar and I'm getting duplicates again, too. Very frustrating. I went to the duplicate calendar fix instructions at Apple but that didn't seem to fix my problem; I can live with duplicates. I can't live with missing events.
    Any suggestions or references to a fix? Thanks/

    I don't know if you have what I've also had, but http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=12382141 might help. I have this problem too. It's quite annoying. I have to keep iCal open before it syncs.

  • Why are the calendars on my Mac no longer syncing with my iPhone and/or my iPad since the last IOS upgrade?

    Since installing the IOS upgrade, it seems impossible to sync the calendar(s) on my iMac (via the cloud OR via cable) with my iPhone 4 or my iPad (last generation).
    Any thoughts?

    What happens when you try to sync? Error messages?

  • Photo app (Mac) doesn't sync with iCloud

    Hi All,
    I have taken couple of pictures at home with my iphone which are in my iphone photo library and have by now also made it to the iCloud online.
    However, when I start the photo app on my Mac (OS Yosemite) these photos are still not there. While I expect that they should be there instantly, they have had now couple of hours (within a wifi network) to be synced.
    (Having a flawless synchronisation between apple devices was one of my key factors why I have bought an app. However, this hardly every works.)
    Does anyone know how I can force the photo app only my Mac to refresh and thus get the latest pictures from iCloud?
    I would much appreciate any help!
    Many thanks

    Make sure you have ticked Numbers in System Preferences > iCloud.
    You may need to sign out of iCloud and then back in again to "jumpstart " the syncing.

  • Address book empty on mac, won't sync with iCloud

    Hi everyone,
    I've got a Macbook running Lion and an iPhone running iOS5, I'm using iCloud to sync.  I discovered today that my Address book on my macbook is empty.  On my iPhone, I have all of the sync services turned on in iCloud.  I also have iCloud set up on the macbook, but the contacts box is unchecked.  If I check the box in iCloud preferences, it won't stay that way.  Once I close the preferences pane and reopen it, the checkbox is empty again.
    I'm not sure if this is a related issue, but this is also driving me nuts.  I have an exchange account that I no longer use that will not go away no matter how many times I delete it.  I can delete it from "mail, contacts & calendars" and in my address book, but it comes back every time.
    Any help is appreciated.
    Thank you!!

    Ok, I fixed it.  I had to dump the entire ~Library/Application Support/AddressBook folder.  Once I did it solved both of the issues I was having.  Hooray!

  • Calendar app in Yosemite does not sync with iCloud for all my other devices

    Currently running Yosemite on my iMac and running 8.1 on all my iPhones.
    When I make changes in the calendar in my iMac, iCloud doesn't reflect the changes and they also don't show in the phone.
    Does anyone have a solution for this?
