ICal (Mavericks) no longer syncs with iPhone

I recently upgraded from OSX 10.6.9 to OSX Mavericks.
Regular syncing between iPhone (iOS6.1.3) was successful in terms of syncing of desktop iCal and iPhone calendar.
Now there is no syncing. I have since updated to iOS7.0.3 on iPhone, but still there is no syncing of newly-entered events on iPhone to the desktop calendar (or vice-versa).

A lot of people cannot put sensitive address and calendar information into iCloud.
Why can't we sync between our phones and our desktop computers via a wired connection, like we used to be able to?
Because that feature does not exist in Mavericks. You can always restore your last OSX from the backup you made before you installed Mavericks, unless of course yours is a brand new Mac with Mavericks preinstalled.
Cheers

ICal will no longer sync with macmini still syncs with iPhone, iPod and another mac...what happened?

iCal will no longer sync with wife's mac mini. It works with our iPhone, iPod and and older G5 tower. I am using an iMac. Nothing shows up on the mobile me calendar in her office. I have been unable to get the shared calendar to open on her machine. All had been well until yesterday.
Thanks for any help.

I did restore from back-up as well. And I had thought of restoring my iPod to factory settings however...I just got my mother-in-law's old iPhone 3GS. Upon getting it from her I restored it to factory settings. After having the problems tonight syncing my iPod to iTunes I tried syncing the iPhone. It started out fine, showing it as a new device and setting it up. It shows both devices on my iTunes and then when I went to sync it I got the error message that none of the songs could be copied from my iTunes because they could not be found. But they all clearly show up in my iTunes. I had done this before when I was having the issue with my books and then I had deleted them all from iTunes and readded a few that I wanted to put on my iPod and it still wouldn't sync them. So I really don't want to take absolutely everything off my iPod and restore it to factory only to be unable to add anything from my iTunes ever again as is the case with the iPhone.

ICal mysteriously no longer syncs with my iPhone 3gs via iTunes sync

My iCal mysteriously no longer syncs with my iPhone 3gs via iTunes sync. It worked great until about a month ago. I've made over 300 Calendar changes to my iPhone 3gs' Calendar, but not a single item has synced back to my iCal on my iMac, when I sync my iTunes (which I do almost daily). In addition, I've created some items on my iCal, as a test, and none of them sync onto my iPhone 3gs.
What gives? Ideas? Suggestions?
Thanks for your help!

Well, I was able to manually sync my iPhone to my iCal one time, but haven't been able to get it to sync Calendar info since then. It was moderately successful, so I could export an iCal backup file. However, I ended up with about 200 MORE duplicate items on my iPhone, and what's weird is that many of these duplicates do NOT have any "edit" functionality! So I a, stuck with them being on the day they are at right now. Grrrrrr

ICal no longer syncing with iPhone

My iCal has suddenly stopped syncing with my iPhone and I have tried everything to get it to work again, with no luck. I do not use iCloud and sync through iTunes.
The operating system on my computer is Mountain Lion, my iPhone is a 4S with iSO 5.1.1 and I am using iTunes 11.0.1.
Does anyone know what could be causing my syncing to suddenly stop? Everything else on my computer is syncing with my iPhone.

You can no longer sync via iTunes. That method of sync was removed (and the 1000+ post thread is arguments over things tangientally related to that).
You need to sync via other means than iTunes, then.
One option is to use iCloud. If you sign into iCloud on all your devices, and then make sure your calendars are in the "iCloud" section on your devices, they should sync.
If you don't want to use iCloud, you could use Google calendars, they operate much the same way (but may be less reliable).
Or if you use Exchange for work, you could sync that way.
Or if none of those are acceptable, you could install OS X Server and set up the calendar server on your local network and use it to sync. This is fairly straightforward "for setting up a UNIX calendar server" but it's not trivial and beyond the scope of a forum post to explain it all

ICal and Address Book no longer syncing with iPhone - HELP!

HELP!
I am a long time Apple user and rely heavily on my iPhone to keep me where I need to be, when I need to be there. I have an iPhone 4 and it is running OS 6.0.1. Everything was working fabulously until recently. Sadly I don't know when the problems started--when I updated to OS 6 OR when I updated iTunes to version 11. Either way, my iCal and Address Book no longer sync with my iPhone. And to add insult to injury, my phone is no longer automatically detecting the AT&T microcell I have in my house. I have to reboot my phone every time I come back in the house--talk about annoying.
I am not super techy, so I am hoping someone can help me with this. I LIVE by my iPhone and as a self-employed person, I can't afford for this device to stop giving me information. I also don't want to do entries on my phone AND computer everytime something changes. I do not want to go back to the more reliable paper calendar and address book.
I have iCloud turned on, and it appears to sync my address book with my iPhone. But I seem to be a mess with iCal and my desktop. And between iCal/Adress Book on my computer and iPhone, nothing is talking.
HELP!!!!

I think my company updated Exchange on Friday and since then I cannot sync with Mac Mail, Entourage does not seem to be working either?
Any fix found

ITunes 9.2 upgrade broken - No longer syncs with iPhone 3GS

I just installed the new iTunes 9.2 (and SL 10.6.4) through Software Update.
After rebooting, I find that iTunes 9.2 no longer syncs with my iPhone 3GS.
iTunes sees my iPhone, but opens the "Set up your iPhone" screen. It tells me:
An iPhone has been previously synced with this computer.
[] Set up as a new iPhone
[] Restore from the backup of [my iPhone 3GS]
This is a horrible bug - I do not wish to erase/restore my iPhone 3GS that synced just fine before the reboot, thankyouverymuch
I tried disconnecting and re-connecting my iPhone 3GS, to no avail...

This worked for me on a win7 machine - haven't tried it on my macbook pro machine:
Restart the Apple Mobile Device Service (AMDS) on Windows :
1. Windows XP
* Close iTunes and disconnect the iPhone or iPod touch.
* Choose Start > Control Panel.
* Inside the Control Panel, open Administrative Tools.
* Open Services.
* Select Apple Mobile Device and click Stop the service as shown below:
* After the service is stopped, Click Start the service.
* After the Apple Mobile Device service has started again, open iTunes and connect the device.
2. Windows Vista
* Close iTunes and disconnect the iPhone or iPod touch.
* Click the Windows Start button
* In the Start Search field type Services.
* In the Programs section of the search results, Click "Services".
* Select Apple Mobile Device and click Stop the service as shown below:
* After the service is stopped, click Start the service.
* After the Apple Mobile Device service has started again, open iTunes and connect the device.
If after restarting the Apple Mobile Device Service you encounters with same problem then reinstall AMD S. For reinstalling just uninstall the iTunes from control panel then navigate to C:/ >> Program Files >> iTunes Right-click the iTunes folder and select Delete and choose Yes when asked to confirm the deletion. Note: This folder may have already been deleted if iTunes was successfully removed. Now Restart your computer and Install the latest version of iTunes.
Reinstall the Apple Mobile Device Service (AMDS) on Mac OS X :
# In the Finder, locate iTunes in the Applications folder and drag it to the Trash.
# Move the iTunes icon to the Trash
# Choose Go > Go to Folder.
# Enter /System/Library/Extensions and click Go.
# Locate the file AppleMobileDevice.kext and drag it to the Trash.
# Choose Go > Go to Folder.
# Enter /Library/Receipts/ and click Go.
# Locate the file AppleMobileDeviceSupport.pkg and drag it to the Trash. If prompted, authenticate with the admin password.
# Choose Finder > Empty Trash and restart the computer.
# Download and install the current version of iTunes www.apple.com/itunes/

Calendar no longer syncing with iphone after IOS5.

The appointments in Outlook are no longer syncing with my phone after installing IOS5. I've uninstalled/reinstalled iTunes. The itunes add-in in Outlook is disabled and no matter how many times I enable it, it disables. I've reset my phone. I've replaced items on this phone with calendar and nothing seems to work. How do I get my appointments on my phone to be able to sync with iCloud?

I'm on a 4S IOS 7.1 won't show my Google Calendar I have about 8 that should be showing. FIXED!!
I'm posting this here because your answers didn't help with my particular problem but aimed me in the right direction. so maybe this will help someone else.
------------------------------ This is what I tried ------------------------------
At the bottom of the calendar app click Calendars there should be a check to the left of your calendar. (my calendars weren't even listed here)
The google.com/calendar/iphoneselect solution. (mine was checked correctly)
Google 2-step verification (I even turned this on to see if it would help)
Deleting all accounts “Settings – Mail,Contacts,Calendars – Accounts” and starting over
------------------------------ My Solution ------------------------------
Since I deleted all my accounts already this is what worked I don't know why.
Under “Settings – Mail,Contacts,Calendars – Accounts”
I added my google account “add account” “Google”... so on. Calendar was selected.
I added a second account “add account” “other” (at bottom) scroll down to “add CalDav Account” under calendars.
Server= www.google.com
user name = your email
password = your password
description = whatever
Calendar was selected.
Then I went to “Settings – Mail,Contacts,Calendars – Accounts” and down towards the bottom I clicked “default calendar” and set it.
I hope this helps

My iCal calendar no longer syncs with my iPhone

I bought an iPhone and an iMac just recently. For the last two weeks they have been syncing whenever they ar both in the same WiFi network. But latrely, they no longer sync when I change something in either calendar. Any idea why? They are both still connecting to my home WiFi network.

OK. Problem seems to have gone away when I started iTunes on the iMac. I'm real new to the iPhone and to Imac (a couple weeks). Does iTunes have to be running on the iMac in order for sync to take place?

ICal is no longer syncing with google calendar

I keep getting the error that the url is incorrect when syncing ical with google calendar. It just stopped working today for some reason!
When I look at the settings I see it adds an extra / at the end of the server path. When I delete that it syncs ok once only and then reverts back to the same problem! Help as I use this calendar to sync with google calendars on my imac so that i have the same calendar on my android phone!

the same is happening to me.
All my cals have been syncing just fine. Upgraded my iphone os5. upgraded lion on laptop. And for some reason, now i'm opening ical today and trying to edit, i am suddenly getting URL errors. Also i cannot find a way in the new ical (with lion) to unsubscribe from things.
My iphone seems to be updating ok as it's syncing from the google cal server... but if i want to add or edit anything to my google cals in ical, it's not letting me do anything.
Any ideas anyone ?

IPad will no longer sync with iPhone when using iMessages

I'm not sure what happened but my iPad no longer syncing iMessages with my iPhone. All have been signed in with Apple ID, all have the same telephone number and email address selected. I'm at loss what to do. Any suggestions?

I am having the same issue with my ipad 3 with retina display and my iphone 5 (both iOS 8.1.2). Text messages received on my iphone will be forwarded to my ipad, however imessages will not. Also, some contacts that i can Imessage on my iphone (blue contacts) show up as grey, red or green on my ipad and it wont allow me to imessage them anymore.
I have tired all of the apple support remedies to no avail, including a full reset of both devices. No luck yet. I hope someone can figure this out for both our sakes.

Outlook no longer syncing with iPhone and Mac??

I was formerly syncing Outlook with iPhone just fine on my Mac...now it's not working!! I think I had to do something via iCal. Whatever it was it's not working and need help ASAP! (no need for iCloud and know that does not work!!!)

I have the same problem too. My iphone is not syncing with my addressbook on the mac, no matter what I try, it is very very frustrating!!

My itunes no longer syncs with iphone 5 yet works with my ipod

My iPhone has always synced with iTunes no problem. I set my Ipod up on the same iTunes no problem. However, since upgrading my phone to the latest iOS I have been unable to update my music. I can select the music I want, click sync and although it appears to be syncing, no updates happen on my phone apart from it updates my contacts?!

Hello Nash_x91x,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing when syncing music to your iPhone 5. I recommend resyncing the music to your iPhone for the issue you described.
If you are syncing automatically, resync content to the iPhone by unchecking "Sync Music" and click "Apply." Then check "Sync Music" and click "Apply" again. If you do not want to sync your entire library, be sure to select "Selected playlists, artists, albums, and genres" and select the content you want to sync:
If you sync manually, delete the music when your iPhone is selected in iTunes and drag new content to your iPhone.
You can find the syncing steps in the following article:

Thank you for posting in the Apple Support Communities.
Best,

Calendar will no longer sync with iPhone

My calendar would sync with no problems and now it won't update the information on my iphone so I am stuck with the old information and having to manually update the calendar.
Please help.
Using version 6.0 of calendar
Using version 10.7 of iTunes
Using 6.0.1 on iPhone
Using OS X 10.8.2
Everything says it's up to date. When I attempt to sync, nothing changes on the calendar.
Thank you,
Amy

Have you run scanpst.exe? That file is in the Microsoft Office folder. That does a scan of your Outlook.pst file and can help fix problems. Can you remember what you were doing when the problem began. Many times recurring appointments with open end dates can cause problems. Another thing that Outlook/Apple do not like too well are the way you set a reminder in an appointment. If you have an appointment with a reminder that is set to zero in Outlook, it can confuse the Apple calendar. Another thing to check is in iTunes, and that is resetting the sync history.
Also, you should not have to re-enter years of data, since the iPhone by default only syncs the last 30 days worth of data. Your archive generally is just resident on the computer. Once data goes to archive, it is removed from the phone due to the time period.
Try creating a new calendar in Outlook and put a couple of dummy appointments in it. Connect the iPhone to iTunes and set iTunes to sync all calendars. See if this new calendar syncs. If it does, you can import all of your old calendar data as Lawrence states to the new calendar and make that your default calendar by deleting the old one.
See if any of these steps helps.

HT2513 i cal on macbook pro no longer syncs with iphone

i used to be able to sync i-cal on my macbook pro laptop with my iphone without a problem. i changed the setting on my iphone to sync on the cloud. i later reverted to the original settings after i found out that my laptop won't support cloud settings. now the calendars won't sync. i've checked the settings on both. any suggestions?? thanks.

Hi CaptDavid,
The good news... or rather the peace of mind news... is that Applecare doesn't cover software. So your coverage would have no bearing on the issue at hand. But that's besides the point. Let's try a couple of things:
1.) When you go to Me.com and login, everything works just fine and everything looks ok?
2.) Do you own an iPhone or iPod Touch? If so, can you sync to MobileMe with them? If not, do you own another computer? Even if it's a PC... can you sync with MobileMe?
3.) If you make a new user account on the computer and configure that account to sync with your MobileMe information, does that work?
4.) Have you reset Sync History via iSync? http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1497
Here are two other supporting articles:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1627
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1865
5.) You can use MobileMe's chat support, as a member, for some assistance. If they're unable to resolve your issue they'd probably then refer you into an Apple Retail Store or over the phone support with Applecare. As your coverage has recently expired, you might be subject to a $49 support agreement over the phone but you'd get a free Genius Bar appointment for the issue. Perhaps you can convince the Applecare phone agent that you just worked with Mobile Me support and they were unable to resolve your issue (if they can't and refer you to call Applecare). Heck, it's worth a shot.
