ICal won't sync with iPad

iTunes says that calendars are syncing, but events from my iPad don't show up on my iMac.  This is frustrating as this is the only way I have of syncing my iPad and iPhone.  Please help
I have searched and see that many others are having this issue with no real resolution.  I am hoping it has been fixed in the 6 weeks since the last post I found.

Hello Squeegeefrog, 
Thank you for participating in the Apple Support Communities. 
You mention that iCal (or Calendar on OS X Yosemite) won't sync with your iPad. 
Are you using iCloud Calendar? If so, the advice and  troubleshooting steps in these articles can help you sync the calendar on your Mac with your iPad using iCloud:

    My iCal won't sync with my iPad. Anyone know why? The iPad takes on the iCal but the iCal won't take the iPad entries.

  • Ical won't sync with iPhone 5, iPad 2 or macbook pro.

    I have updated my devices and now my ical won't sync with iPad 2, macbook pro or iPhone 5.  How can I refresh them so they will all sync together.  I just noticed that when I added an event on my ipad2 it did not show up on my macbook pro.  I turned iCloud off then on again.  I also turned calendars on and off again.  Then the event disappeared from my iPad also.  So now it is only on my iPhone 5.  How do I sync ical with all my devices?

    Anna,
    I have tried everything suggested by the apple support webpage.

  • My ical won't sync with iPhone 4 after IOS 6.0.1 update

    My ical won't sync with iPhone 4 after IOS 6.0.1 update. The "sync calendars" option is no longer available after I installed this update. Any ideas???I have tried a few times to sync, and nothing has changed on my calendars. I have had so many troubles with this update. Grrr...

    I tried the same but it did not worked. But, i got a solution. I accessed gmail on my laptop. Went to gmail settings. There is a option to add a device. A iPhone was already listed. I clicked Revoke to remove it. Then i clicked add new device and gave it iPhone name and a new 16-20 character password was geenrated. I used it to configure gmail on my Iphone and it worked beautifully. So glad i have been able to fix this. That password is a one time password to authenticate that device.

  • Used Migration Assistant to import PC files. It created second user account that won't sync with iPad.  How do I merge accounts?

    Used Migration Assistant to import PC files. It created second user account that won't sync with iPad.  How do I merge accounts?

    It's next to impossible to fully merge two accounts on a Mac easily.
    This being said, though, please take a look at "The Great Pondini's" site where this specific issue is addressed.  There should be information here you can use to get things sorted out.

  • Ical won't sync with iPhone. I can't reset sync history in Lion anymore?

    i'm pulling my hair out! my ical just won't sync with my iphone anymore. i wanted to reset sync history as suggested in some forums but lion doesn't have isync anymore.
    it is so frustrating as it is supposed to be easy to sync apple products!
    any ideas?
    thanks again
    ian

    Thanks John, you're a star! it's back to normal, it was hours last night resetting my iphone but no luck. I reset my sync services this morning and it works!
    Why have Apple made it so difficult to do this, why hide things away? I spent ages looking for my library the other day as that was hidden! Mad!
    Much appreciated John,

  • My ical won't sync with my iphone and ipad calendar?

    I cannot get my Mac ical  calendar to sync new appointments added from mac to iphone and ipad calendar.  I have downloaded iCloud. When I add a new appointment to my iphone it syncs rights away to my ipad calendar but not to my mac computer and vice versa.
    Any suggestions?

    On your Mac, go to sytem preferences and click on the icloud icon.  Turn on iCloud.
    When prompted, enter your Apple ID for iCloud. If you don't see a prompt, click the Apple icon at the top left of your screen and choose System Preferences. Click iCloud, enter your Apple ID, and select the services you’d like to enable.
    One of the services is ICal. 

  • ICal won't sync with PalmZ22 in 10.5.1

    Before I upgraded to Leopard iCal I synched fine with Palm z22 now it won't. By removing "Apple Conduit" from conduit folder and replacing it with 'Calendar Conduit", I can now synch with Palm desktop. I would prefer to use iCal. Is this a Leopard bug or is there a solution that I am missing?

    I have learned that iSync does not work with late model Palm Pilots (www.foleofanatics.com/2007/11/mac-os-105-palm-desktop-421.html). Therefore I am synching with Hot Sync in the Palm Desktop software. I plan to buy "The Missing Sync for Palm OS" when the Leopard version becomes available.

  • TS3991 iCal won't synce with Mountain Lion & iPhone 4s

    I can't get iCal to sync with Mountain Lion & iPhone 4s via iCloud. Is there a simple way to make this work?

    Okay, did some comparing and it appears only ALL DAY events are displaying on the wrong day. Anything I have set with a specific time shows up on the correct day. Found a reference on the Internet that explains this.
    Apparently, according to that source, the computer considers a day to START at 12:00 am, so an all day event displays on the computer on the correct day which begins at midnight. But the iPhone considers a day to END at 12:00 am so all day events are posted BEFORE midnight of the correct day, which is the wrong day.
    What I don't understand is WHY Apple has the iPhone using different criteria than their computers? This "bug" apparently goes back to the original iPhone iOS. Why haven't they reprogrammed it by now?
    I have an appointment with Apple for next week to have someone call me and I will discuss it with them. Hopefully, they'll have an answer for me on how to fix my events to display correctly. If not, I guess I'll have to change all day events to begin and end at specific times. Which means deleting birthdays from the Address Book and creating calendar entries for each one. What a nuisance that will be!
    ETA: AND I won't be able to rely on the US Holidays calendar. *sigh*

  • ICal won't sync with iTunes

    I have setup iCal to and Address Book to sync with my iPod. They are not updating, though. I have done what I need to do in iTunes (to my knowledge) by going to the Contacts Tab and checking sync for both Calendars and Address Book. I have tried All Calendars, as well as manually selecting one of the calendars.
    I have also created a new calendar from scratch, put items in it, then tried syncing it also, but it will not sync. When I sync, iTunes says specifically that it is syncing Calendar and Addresses, but nothing shows up on my iPod afterwards.
    What steps can I take to determine the problem? Thanks for any help.

    Well, the problem is solved. I won't go through the nightmare I had with Apple Support (including convincing the tech support person that iTunes handled this, not iSync). There was a corrupt file which was somehow determined by creating a new user account and trying to sync, which it did. They told me I would have to move everything (it was 20 minutes after closing for them and they did not want to mess with it.) When they said corrupt file, I started looking and ended up deleting the right file which allowed the two to sync together. I wish I could tell you which file, but I primarily deleted the preferences files having to do with the two programs, as well as some Application Support files that I felt safe in deleting. I determined this by making changed to the calendar, then trying to sync, then observing what files showed having been updated at that time.
    If you are interest in knowing which files, I can look and see if I can remember. Try syncing under another account and see if that works. If it does, there is likely a file that is messed up.

  • Ical won't sync with gmail account

    I'm trying to set up my wife's iCal to sync with her gmail calender. We both just got brand new macbook pros and mine had no problems sync my mail, calendar, chat and address book.
    Yet when she tries to sync her computer with her gmail account it will only work with mail and address book and chat. When it tries to sync her calendar with iCal it says that "A secure connection couldn't be established" and won't sync her calendar at all.
    Anyone have a solution?

    This has been an issue for people since 2010. Why is it still here?

  • Ical won't sync with iPhone over iCloud

    I have an iPhone 3GS which doesn't want to sync with ical.
    I am successfully syncing ical between my MBP and icloud and vice versa, but the iPhone won't work. I have tried everything suggested by the apple support webpage. And everything else that i have found on google, so i'm after any other ideas?
    I have restored the phone at least twice, and still no luck. I am running latest version of ios...
    With icloud for ical turned on on the phone a LOT of battery power is wasted, with 0 use of phone it went down 20% in 1 hour. It looks like it's constantly trying to update, but nothing comes down to the phone, or goes up to the cloud.
    I am successfully syncing contacts between the phone, cloud and MBP - though this wasn't entirely straightforwards due to duplicates and other such issues with the phone.
    I'm getting very frustrated! The only bit I really *need* to sync to my phone is the ical. I can manage without everything else! Sigh.
