ICal stopped syncing via .mac

iCal has stopped syncing using .mac and I can't use iCloud because I'm on Snow Leopard (can't upgrade yet due to Lion's lack of support of previous versions of Microsoft Office). The iCal sync option is turned on in system preferences. Has Apple changed something already in .mac to cause this?

ICal stopped syncing my "work" calendar...

Hi Folks, I only have two calendars, work and home. For some reason when I sync my iPhone it will no longer add my "work" calendar stuff to the phone. Under Info in iTunes I DO have it checked but it just won't do it. Any thoughts? Thanks much for reading.

jburnard,
OK, I will give it a try.
What sync method are you using?
Why are you not using Mac OS X 10.4.11?
What version of iTunes are you using?
Can you correlate when "iCal stopped syncing my "work" calendar..." with any system or application changes?
It may also be helpful to follow this procedure: (If you are not using MobileMe)
1. As a first step, I suggest resetting the sync history on your Mac. This is done via iSync preferences with the iSync application located in your Applications folder.
2. After selecting reset sync history with iSync preferences, restart your Mac and try again. Disconnect your iPhone and quit iTunes.
3. At the iCal menu bar, go to File and select Back up iCal.
4. Save the backup on your Desktop.
5. Delete all calendars from iCal so that is it empty. (You must leave at least one empty calendar)
6. At the iCal menu bar, go to File and select Restore iCal - selecting the backup file placed on your Desktop.
7. Launch iTunes and connect your iPhone.
8. Check if this resolves the problem.

ICal stops syncing with Exchange 2010

I have a few users with Macbooks, syncing iCal with the company server Exchange 2010. All of them work fine apart from one... I can setup the Exchange account as normal, and all events are correctly synced. After a few days, iCal stops syncing and I got a message "Go offline, revert to server, try again". At this point, the only workaround is to delete the account, and recreate it with the same settings... Then iCal works fine for a few days and again.
This server is working fine with iPhones, Android, Outlook 2011 (Mac), Outlook 2010 (Windows)...
Anyone facing the same issue ? Any idea ?

I did a hard reset and that didn't fix my issue so i wouldn't suggest doing a hard reset.
My environment:
Exchange 2010 SP1
Droid with FRG22D
I haven't been able to pinpoint the issue but it has to do with the request and response with provisioning between the devices and exchange. Nothing has changed but updating the phone to the latest patch.
I receive the following error:

Ical stopped syncing after update...

My iPhone iCal stopped syncing after the 2.0.1 update. All my other devices are syncing perfectly. anybody else experiencing this?

I tried a lot of things but nothing worked. I finally got the events in ical to sync back to the iphone by turning off sync at the iphone then turning it back on again. Events get sync then, but not again until I repeat this (which pretty much defeats the point of pushing!). Hopefully MobileMe will be fixed soon!

Ical stopped syncing

Well, this is the iSync forum. iSync is only for syncing with non-Apple mobile phones via a USB or Bluetooth connection.

iCal stops sync

I am trying to sync my BB with my Mac. I have tried everything I can find on these forums, and it’s still not working. I don’t actually get an error message, it just freezes and stops responding during the iCal sync.
My specs:
BB 9700, v5.0.0.862 (Bundle 1446, Platform 5.1.0.175)
BB Desktop Manager Version 1.0.4 (build 10)
MacBook Pro with OS X v10.5.8
I have:
Removed all recurring events with no ending
Removed the battery and the sim card
Deleted BB Manager and re-installed
“Forgot “ the device, re-installed BBM and re-set up the synchronization
Enabled sync in Microsoft Entourage
On the device:
Compression is enabled
Media Card Support is On
Mass Storage Mode Support is Off
Keep Appointments – Forever
I am:
Using BB supplied cord
Using 2-way synchronization, with device data replaced.
I have also tried syncing:
         All Events
         Only future events
         Only events 90 days prior and 90 days after
         Replacing all calendar events on this BlackBerry device
Does anyone have any suggestions?? I have wasted so much time on this, the top of my head is about to pop off.
Thanks.
First off, why are you using a MBP on Leopard and not snow loepard? Nevermind that.
1. de-encrypt your BB unless you cannot IT Policy; This may be the answer to the issue [it policy that is].
2. Two way synchronization with device data to be replaced - ensure in Calendar that its set to Entourage if you wish this.
3. ENSURE the USB cable is NOT on an external full size Apple keyboard [not enough power is going through those ports] - directly connect to the MBP.
4. Before you connect the BB - go into Options> Advanced Options> Enterprise Activation and type: ALT key+CNFG ... turn off wireless SYNC [if this is BES enabled BB]. Then try to sync.
either or all of these should work.

Google Calendar alarms not working in iCal when synced via delegation

If I set up syncing to my shared Google calendars using Google's Calaboration app, I get a half dozen or more "Request Error, Calendar could not be found" messages a day along with the annoying bouncing iCal icon in the dock.
If I set up syncing via the delegation method — as per Google's general syncing instructions (http://www.google.com/support/calendar/bin/answer.py?answer=99358#ical) as well as this Google Calendar forums thread (http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Calendar/thread?tid=210c119ea4d2d37e&hl=en) — iCal fails to display event alarms (i.e., the pop-up alert window).
I need the alarms, so the only thing I can think to do is to tell iCal to sync with gCal less frequently.

Hi Guys,
Having something similar here with Google and ical, seems to be related to when using Google Enterprise Apps for me and a third party provider is in use. In this case a SAML provider. It allows me to get to a login page and asks me which Apps I would like to allow to access my Google Calendar. Once I have made my selections and hit ok it then gives me a pop up message saying that authentication has failed. This is strange as I have had to authenticate with Google to be able to access the application sync in the first place.

Address Book images not syncing via .Mac sync

i recently decided to get serious about attaching images to my contacts in address book. the images sync perfectly with the iphone, but they dont sync at all between the other copies of address book on the various macs in my home. the addresses (text) sync just fine -- but not the images.
what am i missing, here?

I had the same problem. My Mac's address book (including images) were synced via Missing Sync from my Windows Mobile phone. None of the images transferred to the iPhone. I then went into each Address Book entry and manually resized the image (edit, dc on the image and drag the slider to resize the image) and then resynced. Now all is perfect!
One side note- if you assign a contact image on the Mac or PC and sync to the phone, the image is shown in a small thumbnail on the top line of the phone when that person calls, etc... If instead you assign a photo on the iPhone itself using the "select current photo" option, then the photo is shown full screen instead of thumbnail! I copied all of my "CallerID" photos to an iPhoto photo album, synced that album to the phone, then manually assigned a photo to a contact on the phone and now they are full screen. Very cool!

Why have my Entrourage and iCal stopped syncing?

After months of working flawlessly, new events in Entourage have stopped syncing to iCal. Short of wiping out my old Entourage calendar in iCal and re-importing, how can I get a new event to show up in iCal?

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.

4s icalendar stopped syncing with mac

All my devices were syncing just fine until one day (and no, I don't remember what I did on that day) when my phone was no longer updating properly. I have since purchased a 6 but all the same issues transferred from my 4s. When I try to sync via iTunes, I get the -50 error but I don't know how to figure out what the cause is. HELP! Thank you so much.
My calendars are both the same, I have checked to make sure it's set to sync.

I really don't know what else to try to this point.
I can tell you that I think that this version of iTunes has been the most unreliable version ever for me concerning WiFi syncing with my MacBook running Lion 10.7.4. I thought that this iTunes version was tweaked specifically to work with Mountain Lion 10.8.2 - aka iOS for the Mac - as I like to call it.
I'm sure that you have tried this over and over again, but when iTunes will not recognize my iPad - which happens too often now in 10.7 - I keep quitting iTunes, rebooting my iPad and restarting my Mac until it finally works again. Sometimes it takes me four or five tries, but I can always get it to work again.
And even though the USB to dock connector is working for the phone, it would not hurt to try another cable with the iPad just to make sure that it is not the problem.

Ical not syncing with Mac.

I can't seem to get my ical to sync between my iphone and Mac. I would like to use the restore however, whilst my itunes tells me it backs up to the computer I cannot locate the information. I do not wish to use icloud

Hi Tayfit -
I searched this question and found a solution that worked for me on another forum here. I use OS 10.6.8 on an iMac with Intel Core, and an iPhone 4. I do not wish to use iCloud for syncing either. I had many duplication problems when I attempted to use iCloud, in contacts and in ical, so I deleted for days and dropped the iCloud. My iPhone does seem to sync with iCal on the iMac, but the iMac calendars didn't all sync with the iPhone. I use iTunes to sync. Here is what I did:
In the folder /users/<---YOUR USERNAME--->/Library/Calendars, I deleted "Calendar Cache" and "Calendar Sync Changes" ....
That's all I did. I had tried the terminal reset option listed in the Apple Support questions, but that was to address the screw up post iCloud use, and that didn't fix my issue.
Best of luck. I hope this helps you.

ICal stopped syncing with Google Calendar

My iCal recently stopped syncing with my Google Calendar.
Change: I decided to set up an application specific password (http://support.google.com/accounts/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=185833)
Action: Doing this made me enter the application specific password on my MacBook Air for my Gmail set up confirmation for email.
Result: When that happened everything was syncing fine; email & calendar.
The next morning when I tried to launch my calendar on my Air I received the error message that my Air could not access the Google Calendar. The password was incorrect.
Assumption: I needed to set aup an application specific password now for the iCal on my Air.
Action: I removed the calendar in iCal preferences and created an app specific password and tried to set up the calendar again using the app specific password from Google.
Result: Selected Account Type (Google) Email (google email) Password (app specific password)
Error Message: Server with Secure Communication Unavailable - Your calendar account isn't on a server that can recive your calendar information securely. If a server isn't secure, others may be able to view your calendar information. To continue searching for your account on servers that may not be secure, and then set up the account it's found, click continue.
Action: I went into my Google Calendar settings and made the calendar public.
Note: When I originally set up my calendar I didn't get this message or have to make my Google calendar public.
Question: Why am I getting this error message now?
Change: Account Settings: prompted me now to set this up as a CalDav account....?
What the heck?

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 ?

ICal stopped syncing with iPhone

My iPhone has been blissfully syncing, as expected, until the last few days, when it no longer syncs with my iCal. New calendar items don't sync to the phone, and new items on my iPhone won't sync to iCal.
I have been running a third party application Busysync to sync with my Google calendar, and this has also stopped syncing from Google calendar to my main computer, but not from iCal to my Google calendar. I have been trying to get help with this from their forums, where a suggestion came up that recurring calendar items might be triggering problems within Google calendar and therefore Busysync, but even when I stop Busysync running, my iCal and iPhone still won't sync with each other.
I've attempted resetting my Sync history in iSync, but it makes no difference. This was a problem prior to updating to iTunes 9, and I was wondering if anyone else had been having problems with the last update of iTunes 8. Or is there another simple way of resetting things, as resetting the Sync history seems to do nothing...
Any suggestions?

I am having the same problem. My iPhone calendar was syncing to my iCloud and my Macbook Pro but then it stopped. Now I've added an iMac and can't get my phone to sync to either computer. It's not only annyoing but very bothersome when you add an appointment to your iPhone and it doesn't update to your iCalendar at home.

Bookmarks no longer syncing via .Mac

I have noticed that my Safari bookmarks are no longer syncing between my Macs using .Mac. (Every other type of item is syncing ok, i.e. iCal etc)
This MAY have started since v3.1 was installed, but I have no proof of that.
Anyone else noticed this?
TIA
Mark

Okay, I did a little more investigation into this issue.
First, if you have not already read this thread, I suggest you do so: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1448192&tstart=15
Although the particular issue discussed in this thread is a problem with the Sync Server crashing, there are a few interesting insights.
I tried one of the suggestions from that thread. To see if normal syncing behavior could be reestablished, I deleted my current bookmarks, synced to .Mac, then copied back my original Bookmarks.plist file and synced again.
I did this process on two of my machines. Of course, I first backed up my Safari Bookmarks.plist file on each of my Macs. The result, no change in syncing behavior. Although my original bookmarks were repaired by copying them back, the process did not restore normal syncing behavior between the two Macs.
.Mac syncing of bookmarks still has no affect. The bookmarks remain unchanged between both Macs even though they should be merging their respective data.

ICal stopped syncing after password change

After changing my iCloud password, iCal on one of my computers stopped syncing. I assume I need to enter the new iCloud password, but can't figure out where. Any thoughts? Thanks!

Providing you are simply updating your existing details and not changing to another account, when you delete your account, all the data that is synced with iCloud will also be deleted from the device (but not from iCloud), but will be synced back to your device when you login again.
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your computer, you need to sign out of the account from your computer first, then sign back in using your updated details. (System Preferences > iCloud, click the sign out button)
