ICloud calendar on mac not syncing to iPhone (very well)

Hi. I have recently switched from Google calendar to purely using my iCloud calendar. I created brand new iCloud calendars. Imported the events from Google calendars and it seemed mostly to work. The events seem the same on my iMac as on my iPhone. However, it seems to be very slow. For instance. I just added a test event on my mac iCloud calendar and am still waiting (half an hour later) for it to show up on my iphone. I thought iCloud was meant to be instant. I don't get why there is such a delay.

On the Mac, open Calendar/Preferences/Accounts/Account Information. Make sure the Refresh Calendars rate is set to "Push"
On the IOS devices: Settings/Mail, Contacts, Calendars/Fetch New Data: Push

Avoid installing iTunes 11 if you are a Windows user. Calendars, etc will not sync with iPhone or iPad. Anyone have a fix?

After installing iTunes 11.0, Outlook Calendars, etc will not sync with iPhone or iPad. Anyone have a fix?

I'm also seeing weird sync issues since upgrading to iOS 7. The sync issues started when I first upgraded to iOS 7 so I suspect that iOS 7 is to blame and the other system differences aren't an issue (i.e. I also upgraded to Windows 8.1 but it never worked properly when I was on Windows 8). For me, the only way to "sync" all the smart playlists and music is to restore from backup and then the first sync seems to work. However, I haven't tried that recently (I tried it a month back or so and it worked then) because it is ridiculous to have to restore your phone just to sync things! Apple needs to fix the iOS 7 quality issues.

Calendar On Ipad not Syncing to Iphone Icloud

Hi I recently had an i pad mini for christmas.
When i tried to sync my calendar from my iphone, only certain events from the past few weeks would sync not all of the year.
I have gone into settings and made sure that i have the option for everything to be synced and have identical settings on both devices.
I have also noticed that when i try and add an event on my i pad not only does it not sync but sometimes it doesent show up at all not even on the ipad i just created the event on.
I would also like to point out that every event i create on my iphone shows up on icloud but does not always show up on i pad
Thanks in advance for any help.

Please make sure that you create new events in an iCloud calendar (open the event and check field calendar) and not in local calendar or in a calendar from another service that you also set up on one of your devices.
If you would like to see all the events of the year, then please make sure that you choose the option in "Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendar > (section Calendar) > Sync > All Events".

Calendars and Contacts not syncing between iPhone and Mac

Hello.
I am using a MacPro4,1 (early 2009) running OS X 10.9.1, and an iPhone 4 running iOS 7.0.4.
In iPhone, Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars, Calendars Settings are set to: Sync – All Events.
In iTunes, Sync with this iPhone over Wi-Fi is checked.
Calendar and Contacts aren't syncing, in neither direction, neither over Wi-Fi nor by cable. (I haven't, and won't try iCloud or however that thing is called now.)
No idea why. I'd be thankful for any hint.

so there's nothing but iCloud to do this? Is there a workaround? Or do I have to use either other a different set of applications, or another set of operating system and hardware? Not syncing is no option, iCloud isn't either, changing systems is.

I have icloud on my laptop running windows 7. If I enter an event on calendar, it will not sync to iphone or ipad??

How can I get a calendar event to sync from icloud on my windows 7 laptop to my iphone and ipad??

Hi tomtodd,
If you have it setup correctly
Set up and use iCloud for Windows
check this article for troubleshooting iCloud Calendar
iCloud: Troubleshooting iCloud Calendar
Check the section for iOS devices first, then there's a section for iCloud.com and Microsoft Windows. Try adding the event at iCloud.com for example and see if that syncs.
Best regards,
Nubz

ICloud Contacts on mac not syncing to iCloud

Hello,
I have an issue syncing all my icloud contacts. When I open the "Contacts" app on my mac and click on the filter "All iCloud", it displays numerous contacts. But then when i go and look on icloud.com, it displays only half of them. I first though it just needed some time to sync all of my contacts on the cloud, but after a day, the issue is obviously something else.
On my iPhone, half of the contacts are missing too.
It is not an icloud storage space problem (i have 4.5gb free on 5gb). Contacts synchronisation in iCloud have indeed been activated (on my mac and on my iphone). And the contacts that are missing are contradictorily indeed present in the Contacts mac app and as icloud contacts.
To explain the issue a bit further, it all started when i gave my old iphone to a friend and forgot to unconnect my icloud account on it. She then deleted all of my contacts, calendars and reminders which caused them to be deleted from all of my devices. After asking her to disconnect my account and to sign hers in, i went into my time machine to fetch my previous contacts and calendars. My icloud calendars and reminders are now synched and back in order. But for my icloud contacts, only half of them synched.
Thank you for your help,
Pierrick Allan

I have a Google account linked to my contacts too. But there is no contacts attached to my google account. I do not have any contact on my mac either.
Here's a screenshot that shows the problem well. Notice the contact "Edwin Allan": he's listed in my "all icloud" contacts nevertheless he is not on icloud.com, neither on my iphone.

ICal on iCloud and laptop is not syncing w iphone ical

When I open my iCal on my Mac at work, and also on iCloud via the intertnet, I realized it's not synced up to my phone and items are missing. WiFi is on on the iPhone. I can see what I input on desktop/icloud in the phone, but not what's input on the phone in desktop/icloud online.
It should all sync up automatically right?
Also, how do you put music onto iCloud?

Work laptop is all setup, and iCloud online should be independent from settings. Everything is supposed to be automatically synced right?
I just input something on my iCal w online iCloud, see it on phone, but what I have put in the phone is not on iCloud online.
This is becoming a problem as it's half synced up!! I can SEE the calendar fine, almost in full... while in fact it is not displaying everything on phone.

Mac not syncing with iPhone/iPad

Can someone help me? My Mac is acting up. Over the past 3 days, I have not been able to get my Mac to sync with my iphone or ipad like I have in the past. When I open up my calendar on Mac, it says it cant be refreshed and won't let me do a thing until I force it to quit. I input things on my reminders and notes on my Mac but it won't show up on my other 2 devices. But if I put stuff on my iphone/ipad it will show up on my Mac!? I've tried updating, shutting down, connecting with a USB. I don't know what else to do. I really don't want to have to delete all my stuff because its a lot! Help please!

Calendar – Outlook does not sync with iPhone / iTunes

I posted this question to the iphone hardware forum, however it seems to be more suited to iTunes.
I have had Microsoft Office 2003 working with iTunes and my iPhone 4 to sync my calendar and contacts for some time, and everything worked perfectly up to the other day.
Recently I upgraded from Microsoft Office 2003 to Office 2010, and now the calendar will not sync. Contacts seems to sync ok, but not the calendar.
I have recently gone through several iterations of upgrades for iTunes, iPhone, and other MS patches and updates. Evrything is now up to date. However, nothing I do changes to way that Outlook ignores the iTunes sync.
Everything worked fine until the upgrade to Office 2010. I have changed all of the settings in both iTunes and Outlook and on the phone itself. There does not seem to be any way to make it work.
I always wait for some time before doing any upgrade to make sure the bugs are worked out of it. Since Microsoft Office 2010 has been out for almost three years, I would have assumed that iTunes would work with it, as it normally did with earlier versions. (my mistake)
While the potential is there for the iPhone to ba a good business tool, the basic inability to reliably sync to Outlook (what is agrguably the most prevalent e-mail, contacts and calendar program currently in use) seems to be a relatively significant issue.
Is there any way to fix this?

I looked at the article you referenced, however it appears that the focus is to get Google calndar and Outlook to work together. I do not use Google calendar.
The only real change to the Microsoft side appears to be the change of the version in the Outlook executable file.
Is this all it takes to get MS Office 2010 to sync with iTunes?

ICloud Photo Library (Beta) not syncing from iPhone

I have iCloud Photo Library (Beta) activated on my iPhone 6 and iPad Air. On my iMac I log in to iCloud to see my photos.
Until some days ago, everything went smooth and every photo I took was uploaded and mirrored to all other devices. All modifications as well.
However, since a week or so, I am experiencing issues: I took a number of photos on my iPhone, and first they were uploaded, because I can see them on iPad and iCloud. I then deleted and edited some of these photos on iPhone - but none of these modifications get reflected on other devices. Instead, the „old“ versions are synced, plus even those I’ve deleted from iPhone library. For days now on iPhone I read „uploading xx photos“. But nothings gets uploaded.
(Even when I sync with iPhoto on Mac, none of these modifications are reflected there, either.)
I have shut down and restarted the device several times, to no avail.
What’s going wrong here?

Ok, so here's a solution to this issue:
Backed up my iPhone on iTunes
Did a factory reset on iPhone
Restored the thing from previous backup
Re-entered all my passwords and such
Now it's syncing again.
The whole procedure took me about two hours.
No idea why this happened. Beta, I guess.

Calendar on ipad not sync with iPhone

In recent days I have put appointments into calendar on both my iPhone 4 s and my ipad2 and neither has synced with the other. Any thoughts or suggestions. Up until a few days ago, this was not a problem.

Hi David, thanks. Yes, it is the same accounts all devices and was working fine until last week. I put an appointment in my iPhone on Friday and it still hasn't appeared only iPad calendar yet. I didn't realise until I went to put a different appointment in my ipad this morning. This has not appeared on my phone. As it was working perfectly well before it seems to suggest it is an iCloud problem

Calendar & Contacts do not Sync to iPhone via Active Sync

I've been trying to figure this out for 3 days now. I have searched all over this site and the Internet in general and nothing I have found has fixed the issue.
Basically, starting last week, my Push mail from Exchange started draining my battery from 100% - dead in about 8 - 10 hours. I turned off Push and my battery draining issues went away.
On Monday while searching the net for assistance with the battery draining issue I saw a suggestion to delete the account from the iPhone and re-add it. I did this and all h*ll broke loose.
Ever since adding the exchange server back in the following issues exist:
1. No contacts will sync over from my Outlook Mailbox.
2. No calendar entries will sync over from my Outlook Mailbox.
3. Only a handful of existing mail messages synced over after adding it (doesn't matter what I set my number days/months to save).
4. New mail seems to show up fine, but if I read it in Outlook it does not mark it as read on the iPhone and vice versa.
5. If I get a new invite for a meeting it adds it to my calendar on the iPhone but I dont' get any of the options to accept/decline.
I have tried everything I can think of an all of the suggestions that have been posted online. I've even gone as far as deleting/archiving EVERYTHING out of my mailbox, including contacts, calendar entries, tasks, all mail sent and received, you name it. Nothing I do gets Active Sync working the way it should.
I've added and removed the exchange account to/from my iPhone so many times I can practically do it blindfolded. I even restored my iPhone to factory defaults and then restored a backup I had from before the problems started occurring.
Other co-workers on the same Exchange server are not having these issues.
Any ideas from anyone? I'm trying to see if I can get some assistance from our Exchange team but I don't know what if any help I will get as this is not a supported device on our network.
One thing that I can't seem to do (probably the version of Exchange we are running) is get to the mobile devices section of the Outlook Web Access Client to delete the iPhone profile.
FWIW, this is an original iPhone running 2.2.

I have this exact same issue!
I was on 2.0.1 running fine until late last week, noticed emails would not show up unless I had opened them in outlook. I thought I ran into a bug so I upgraded to 2.0.2. Now I can sync my email if outlook had them opened previously, but no calendar or contacts at all. I don't think my exchange admins will move me to another server, any other ideas?
I love my iphone but if these features don't work I can't use it. I would appreciate any ideas.

My calendar is not syncing between iphone and Mac air on iCloud.

Hi
The calendar entries I am adding either on my iphone or mac air via icloud are not syncying between the devices. Is anyone else having this problem currently? If yes, how can it be resolved. I have deleted the account and added it back in but to no avail.
Thanks

Are all the devices set to actually sync calendar entries to iCloud? If any of them are set to sync with some other service (gMail, Yahoo, Hotmail, etc.) while some of them are set to use iCloud then they can not sync. Or if they are set to iCloud but only set to sync say contact and bookmarks then they will not sync. They all have to be set to iCloud and they all have to have the calendar option selected.
