ICloud calendar problem

I recently made a new iCloud account and apple ID account with a different email address. Problem is that now iCloud won't turn on and merge my calendar with my iPhone 5. everything else merged and works fine. when I click the box in icloud for calendar it asks to merge I click ok and it spins then after a few seconds the check box treys out and the check goes away and the calendar turns off. Please advise.

ICloud Calendar problem on PC

I have an issue with the iCloud calendar on my PC. I have loads of events in my calendar and it's synced with my iPhone 4, running iOS 6.0.1. Yesterday I deleted some repeating events for my spring holiday, starting on 23rd March and as a result I got an intersting outcome: all the repeating events disappeared starting from today, but ONLY ON THE BROWSER edition of iCloud. I have everything working in the Calendar app of my phone, it syncs every time I open the app and all the events are in place until 23rd March after which there are none present (as I wanted).
So on my phone everything is fine, but the events seem completely removed from the browser calendar. I tried multiple browsers from both Linux and Windows and it is the same everywhere.
Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

No problem [and only since you asked].
First of all, only the original poster (OP) can make the awards and these are limited to 1 x 'This solved my question' and 2 x 'This helped mes' Once you have used the 'This solved by question' you cannot withdraw it (as in your case) and allocate it to someone else. The best you can do to 'compensate' is to issue one (or the two) 'This helped me' provided they have not been used up.
Regards.

TS3999 iCloud Calendar Problems

Im having trouble syncing my Icloud calendar to my computer. It will appear on my iphone and ipad but not my IMAC nor my sisters PC. We are trying to link calendars with work

Hi Elizablessed24,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
The article you've referenced is the correct one for troubleshooting the iCloud Calendar. Did you try each of the steps in the "Troubleshooting on OS X" section? I've highlighted a few of the key points below. When you have iCloud working on your Mac, then proceed to the section of the article for Windows troubleshooting.
iCloud: Troubleshooting iCloud Calendar
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3999?viewlocale=en_US
Troubleshooting on OS X:
Confirm that you've turned on iCloud Calendar:
Choose System Preferences from the Apple menu (), then click iCloud.
If you're using OS X Mavericks v10.9 or later, make sure that the Calendars checkbox is selected.
If you're using OS X Mountain Lion or Lion, make sure that the Calendars & Reminders checkbox is selected.
Try each of these steps, testing after each to see if the issue is resolved:
Make sure that you are using OS X Lion v10.7.5 or later.
Make sure your computer is online. Attempt to view www.apple.com. If you can't connect to the Internet, your iCloud calendars and events will not update in Calendar or iCal. Learn how to troubleshoot your Internet connection.
Open a secure website to test if ports 80 and 443 are accessible. Calendar requires port 443 access to iCloud in order to push and fetch updates to and from the iCloud Calendar servers.
Choose Apple () menu > System Preferences, then click the icon for iCloud. Make sure that you're signed in to the same iCloud account that you're using on your other supported devices.
Make sure that you enter and update calendar information in the iCloud section of Calendar or iCal. Only calendars and events in the iCloud section of the Calendar or iCal Calendar list are updated in iCloud.
If recent changes don't appear, try forcing Calendar to refresh by selecting Refresh Calendars from the View menu. In iCal, select Refresh or Refresh All from the Calendar menu.
Make sure that your account was successfully created in Calendar (or iCal) on your Mac. After upgrading to iCloud Calendar, you may need to quit and reopen Calendar (or iCal). To confirm that your account is configured correctly in Calendar (or iCal):
Open Calendar (or iCal).
Open Calendar (or iCal) Preferences.
Click Accounts. You should see an account with your iCloud member name in the Apple ID field.
Turn iCloud Calendars off and back on:
Quit Calendar (or iCal).
Choose Apple () menu > System Preferences, then select iCloud.
Deselect the checkbox next to Calendars (or Calendars & Reminders in Mountain Lion and Lion).
Close System Preferences and wait about a minute.
Open System Preferences and select iCloud.
Replace the checkmark next to Calendars (or Calendars & Reminders in Mountain Lion and Lion).
Close System Preferences.
Open Calendar (or iCal) and test to see if the issue is resolved.
Restart your computer. This may sound simple, but it reinitializes your network and application settings and can frequently resolve issues.
Cheers,

MobileMe to iCloud, calendar problems

Having moved from MobileMe to iCloud, I now am unable to view events on my iPhone calendar, it also doesnt have the option to add events. Address book, email etc have transferred. In iCal>Preferences> iCloudcalDav>enable this account is checked.
How can I fix this, please?

All fixed!
Deleted iCloud from my iphone and when I reinstated it, both problems were resolved.

Sync iCal with iCloud Calendar

None of my appointments in iCal show up in my iCloud Calendar. In fact my iCloud Calendar has no appointments in it. I am sure I screwed something up in the coversion and trying to remove all the duplicate entries. In any event, how do I go about syncing forcing the appointments in iCal to show up in iCloud Calendar.

Problem resolved, and I can now see the other replies, strange.
Anyway, make sure you have a back up copy of your address book and iCal. Use the Export feature to make a back up.
This is what I did to finally resolve the problem.
Go into System Preferences and open "Mail, Contacts & Calendars". Remove all accounts, use the - box.
Go into System Preferences and open "iCloud". Make sure that you have the screen that asks you to sign up for an account. DO not do this yet.
Open Mac Mail and Preferences and remove any accouts that are still showing up so your Mail is completely empty.
Reboot your Mac. Check all the above to see if any accounts have been automatically reinstalled or set up. If they have remove them again.
Reboot again and do the same thing. Once no accounts are showing open you iCal and import the file you exported earlier. This will restore all your appointments in iCal on your Mac.
Reboot your Mac. Make sure that all the iCloud and email accounts are not there. I had to do this 3 times, for what ever reason my old MobileMe account continue to be added back to "Mail, Contacts & Calendars". Once everything is clean and you have all your appointments in iCal, reboot again.
Open Preferences and open "iCloud". Add your primary iCloud account and just wait for everything to finish installing. You should see 2 sets of appointments in iCal. Click on the Calendars button in the upper left and uncheck the box under the heading that does not say iCloud. This does not remove any of the appointments it just hides the ones that are on your Mac and then shows the ones that are on the iCloud Calendar.
One last thing. In iCal open Preferences form the iCal dromdown menue. Under the "Default Calendar" option make sure that you have the default calendar related to the iCloud Calendar checked. If you do not when ever you create a new appointment on your Mac you will be creating it in iCal and two things will happen. First all your iCal appointments on your Mac will show up again and secondl, that appointment will not show up in iCloud Calendars so it will not migrate to your other devices.
Apple should give some thought to having the iCal and iCloud Calendars merged so there are not seperate sets of appointments. I know there must be some reason for doing it the way they did but if someone is going to be using iCloud what would be the purpose of having a seperate set of appointments on your Mac that you have to hide and then worry about entering a new appointment that may not migrate to iCloud if you happend to se that appointment up in the iCal list instead of the iCloud list.

ICloud sync problem with calendar Events on MBP and iPhone since last update. Some of my calendars appear to have either been deleted or merged.

I've noticed quite a few events have disappeared since the last update. Also my calendars appear to have either been deleted or merged. I've lost some very important events. Has anyone else had these problems?

Problems with iCloud Calendar OS 10.8

Problems with iCloud Calendar OS 10.8
I would like to warn users of a couple of problems I have encountered recently with Calendar. I have been in touch with Apple phone support about this and after 3-4 hours on the phone they have arranged to call back tomorrow. A colleague informed me yesterday he has experienced exactly the same problem as described in point 1. below. Looks like a software glitch – I hope it can be fixed quickly.
1. Deletion of single entry in a repeated event results in loss of display of all related events in iCloud Calendar but not on devices
Deletion of a single entry from a repeating event (after correctly selecting to delete only the single event and not to delete all future events) results in failure to display all of the related events in iCloud but with retention of the related events on devices such as iPhone and iCal on a computer.
There have been occasions, very briefly, that the events so affected display correctly on iCloud, only to disappear from the screen within about a second of opening the page in Calendar.
Deletion of the relevant account in iCal (on the computer) and its subsequent reinstallation results in correct display of the calendar in iCal, but persisting failure to display the calendar entries correctly in iCloud. This appears to ONLY effect repeated entries in which one of the repeated entries has been subsequently deleted after the creation of the repeating event. Single entries, or repeated entries that have not been modified, do not appear to be affected.
This problem is consistently occurring regardless of whether the repeated entry is set to end “never”, “after number of times” or “on date”.
My conclusion is, there is a problem with the display of the repeated events in iCloud (?an HTML coding issue) but that the events are being correctly saved in the calendar database.
2. Random dropout in “repeat” function for new events and/or “repeat” function in edit of existing event
In the course of investigating problem 1, I have discovered that the pop-up menu in iCloud Calendar that allows new events to be created or old events to be edited apparently randomly has the repeat event function missing in the pop up menu – making it impossible to create a repeating event from a new entry or to edit an existing event for the repeat function. All other functions appear to be preserved in the affected pop-up.
This problem is also apparent in iCal – i.e., it is not restricted to the web version of Calendar. I have not had the time or the energy to investigate this in detail. At first glance, it is a random error.
Solution: Apple needs to debug this software

Thank you paulfromstpeters !
I have the same problem!
I don't remember what I exactly did, but after some changes on a repeted event (I think I deleted some recurrens), it doesn't appear anymore on the iCloud and on the iPod (but correctly on the MacBook).

ICloud, Calendar, and app store unresponsive. What can I do? (This is a second attempt to describe my problem(s); the first was very unclear).

After upgrade to 10.9.1, iCloud, Calendar, and app store are unresponsive. What can I do? (This is a second attempt to describe my problem(s); the first was very unclear).
- Clicking Calendar brings up nothing but the banner "moving calendar to server account", a message that does not change.
- Clecking the App Store (dock symbol or Application list) brings up a message: "Cannot connect to App Store".
- Softare Update is unresponsive.

Hello Wyodor,
thanks for your reply on my question.
You are wright the index file is 308 KB.
And offcourse that I delete my files and documents is not an Iweb problem, but because my English is not that good, that I thougt I try to tell the whole story, and hope people can read trough the lines.
Why I didn't use Iweb to upload to the server is because the server company recommanded to use file zilla. And I am a nobody with this kind of things, so I did exactly what they tell me to do.
No, i did not make a backup of Iweb and the domain file, but reading other messages on this forum showed me that I can maybe try to make empty the cashfile (?)
and otherwise I have bad luck and have to make my website again. Offcourse I have a lot of examples from all the pages (copied from the local map to my USB stick) and my website is aprox. 15 Mb, (not so big) so it will cost me a few nigths.
But I'm still hoping on a miracle :-)
greetings Lasource

ICloud calendar sync problems

iCloud is setup on both my iPhone 4 and iPad 2 and everything is working and syncing fine except for the calendar.
The entries i have on my iPhone are not syncing with my iPad.
Need help please.
Thanks

I have the same problem. I would prefer to have manually synced through Itunes, but that method has corrupted my Outlook contacts groups, and added empty groups with the extension iphone_contacts. Each sync multiplies the number of these rogue groups exponentially into the hundreds. And they can oly be deleted one by one. And also causes duplicates on the phone.
I finally gave up trying to fix it and tried syncing through ICloud - great, no duplicate contacts or rogue groups, but now I have these issues in Calendar and can't accept meeting makers. When I accept them into my default Outlook Calendar, and then tried to just copy them into the ICloud calendar, it called it copy: name of meeting, and it sent a meeting maker back to the initial originator of the meeting, not just an acceptance, but actually a new meeting request. If I still had an old Palm Pilot, I'd just use that, because I do love the phone, but this is absolutely ridiculous. Any ideas?

Spam alert: iCloud Calendar merge problem

Last night, I updated my iPhone 3GS to iOS 5. I selected the iCloiud option for, amongst other things, my Calendar.
This morning, it appears that anyone who invited me to a meeting in 2011 received spam telling them that I had accepted. I think they were all for past meetings, but I'm not sure. I'm also not positive about it just being 2011, but I didn't notice anything earlier than January (many of these notes went to another account I use).
Now, I am totally-afraid to use iCloud Calendar Merge, although it would be a great tool for me if I could also enable it on my MBAir.
Is there a known problem, here, being resolved?
Thanks,
g

Thanks for the advice, It sounds like a work-around. Unfortunately, at this point, I'm too worried about re-spamming everyone and think iCloud has too many limitations to take up the battle again.
iCloud seems to work well for simple lists, like Safari Bookmarks. I suppose that's something. Apple tends to stay on the simple side of non-core software (just good enough to say they have it), so I'm not expecting the situation to change much.
Another area I wish they'd beef up is Reminders. Appigo's To Do is way better, but it means a separate sync operation that only works wirelessly. Given it's syncing with iCal, you'd think there'd be a better answer. Outlook is richer, but synchronization was ugly, last time I used it.

ICal and iCloud Calendar Appointments Problems Following Daylight Savings Time Change

This morning following the daylight savings time change, I noticed that some but not all of my appointments had shifted forward an hour. Strangely enough, some are correct on the iCloud calendar but are still not correct in iCal. Is anyone else experiencing this problem? Here's another anomaly: the info panel is showing the correct time while the calendar view is not! I have turned off time zone support in both iCal and the iCloud calendar. It's so frustrating when you rely on these tools--especially for appointments--and you find that you can't trust them to be accurate!

samdale67,
Have you had any luck fixing this problem yet?
I just noticed today that my iCloud calendar is consistently one hour behind my iPhone4s calendar. It's as if my iCloud calendar never got the Daylight Savings Time Spring Forward message. The iPhone, on the other hand, updated to DST right on schedule. It's annoying because I'm starting to use my iCloud calendar and would like the time change to be applied.

An interesting iCloud Calendar Outlook problem - please help!

I've got a strange one for you here...My iCloud calendar. I'll try and be brief:
Adding a calendar entry to my iCloud calendar on Outlook 2010 on my PC successfully sends the entry to my iPhone 4S (and also to my calendar at icloud.com)
Adding a calendar entry to my iCloud calendar on my iPhone updates my calendar at iCloud.com but does NOT update my Outlook on my PC.
I'm only using my iCloud calendar across all platforms - there is no other calendar present.
I can't figure out why iCloud works one way (Outlook PC to iOS) but not the other way (iOS to Outlook PC). As far as I can see, all settings are perfect on all sides. I have been using iCloud since the beginning and it has been perfect (bumpy start though!) but suddenly from Wednesday 2nd May, things started to not work properly. I didn't change anything on Wednesday.
Any help would be MUCH appreciated. Thank you in advance!
Ben.

How can I sync my work outlook calendar to a separate 'work' ICloud calendar?

Hello everyone,
I have been trying to work out how to keep my 'work' calendar separate to my 'family' calendar. I have an Outlook calendar at work, and would really like to have it shown in my iCloud as a work calendar, and keep it separate from my family calendar, cause I don't want everyone at work to see what my family plans are at the weekend
The problem is that if I sync my Outlook calendar at work using iTunes, it will sync it to my main iCloud calendar where all my family entries are, and this will 'publish' all my private calendar entries at work....
Anyone managed to set this up so that they can be synced separately. This would be really cool.
Thanks,
Aaron.

When you connect your iPad in iTunes, click on your iPad below "DEVICES", then click the tab "Info" and define on that page what you want to do.

My Outlook/iCloud calendar invites to others appear to work on my end and sync with my PC and mobile, but when other people "accept" the invite, it will not populate/add in to their calendar. How can i fix this without turning off iCloud?

My Outlook/iCloud calendar invites to others appear to work on my end and sync with my PC and mobile, but when other people "accept" the invite, it will not populate/add in to their calendar. How can I fix this without turning off iCloud?
I am at a new office that uses Outlook (not Outlook Exchange) which does not sync with my mobile... I just got iCloud set up on my PC to sync my contacts, calendar, reminders, etc... The sync worked (not without flaws, but the other issues seem solvable... I think), so that i can now see all my appointments on both my phone and on my PC. The problem I am having is that iCloud moved all of my calendar items from Outlook into iCloud calendar and now when I send out meeting/calendar invites the recipients may accept them, but the meeting does not get added to their calendar. This is a huge problem and may mean that i need to turn off iCloud.
Does anyone know how to fix this?
Thanks!

I am replying to my own post here as I seem to have fixed the problem.
I do have some calendars that are shared. Some of those are shared with users who have time zone support turned on. So i activated time zone support on my iphone, then deleted my icloud subscription. I then signed in to icloud again and voila... problem solved.
It is a weird one as the other calendar views were always fine and when you opened an event that appeared in the wrong day (on list view), the correct date of the event was shown in the information...
one more bug in a complicated system I guess

Can't see month view in iCloud calendar

When I click on the month view tab at the bottom of the iCloud calendar screen, nothing happens. For that matter, clicking on the day tab doesn't do anything either.
As another annoyance, in the week view I see the weeks events that were brought in from my Mac, but going to the next week shows no events. HELP!

I am having the same problem. It started when the month view was not available. It took me a long time to figure out that when I minimize the month view, it shows up on the dock as a teeny tiny icon. When I click it, nothing happens. When I go to Week View then my calendar shows up. NOW though, my week view has disappeared and now I'm only left with DAY view. The same exact thing happens in Week view. I have no window, nothing to "grab" that I can possibly see to get it back on my screen. BUT it will be a teeny tiny icon when it's minimized.
The only thing I can think of is that I'm a tech teacher using a projector and my laptop changes resolutions with different software programs. I have had iCal open when the resolution has had to change. The only thing I can think of is that somehow that did something to the window and I can't get it back.
