ICloud gmail calendar subscriptions not updating

I have subscribed via iCloud to some gmail calendars that are not updating on our iPhones. They update in Calendar on the mac just fine, but not on the phones.
Since the family shares an iCloud account, I have subscribed to the calender in my iCloud account. Then as I understand it, it (should) update on all the devices that are signed into that account.  The calendar does show up, and the first time I look at it (for instance, if I unsubscribe then re-subscribe) it's correct. It's just that the updates aren't flowing.
The steps are:
1. in a browser, go to gmail, log in to the account and update the calendar. Add, delete modify events.
2. On the mac, see the changes show up in Calendar to the Subscribed calender
3. On the phone, none of the changes show up.
What's odd is that on the iPad, the changes DO show up. It's just on the iPhones. Any ideas?

On your phone go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendar>Default Calendar.  Here, make sure you have selected a calendar listed under your iCloud account as your default.  If you haven't, make this change, then enter a new event on your phone and see if it syncs now.
If your default calendar is correct and it still won't sync, enter any events on your phone that are not already in your iCloud calendar to your iCloud calendar so it is up to date.  Then go to Settings>iCloud, turn Calendars to Off, when prompted choose Delete from My iPhone.  After a minute or so, turn Calendars back to On to sync back your iCloud calendars.  Then try entering a new event on your phone and see if it syncs now.

  • Gmail folders do not update in Mail

    Ever since upgrading to Mavericks my Gmail folders do not update in the Mail app.  I don't have this problem with my iOS devices (iPhone 5 or iPad 3) both running the latest iOS version. Is there a work around.

    So i pretty much got ticked at my iphone. Not only was my "sent folder" not updating, the new 2.0 was crashing and hanging all my applications. e-mail photos wont send, got error messesges , at least every application crashed at some point in the last week, even after i did a restore and back-up. SO pretty much i restored to factory out of the box settings and just started as a "new iphone".
    as for the whole "sent folder" not updating. I changed the setting to download "Last 200" messeges. Then i kept updating until all 1,000 messeges were downloaded. After that point my iphone would update whenever i sent new messeges. But it would take forever cause it was checking against a 1,000 e-mails for new ones.... SO i give up, i just dumped all my "sent e-mails" to a new folder called "sent archives" ( u can call it whatever u want). I think this is the easiest fix for now.
    if i get any more issues.. i'm just gonna go restore my phone back to the software rev before 2.0 came out....

    I have paid for additional iCloud storage but its not updated on my devices

    The iCloud storage is for your backup, it will not make your device capacity larger.

  • ICal calendar subscriptions not syncing to iCloud

    I've followed all the steps Apple lists for ensuring that my Supscription calendars will sync with iCloud -- and they're not. I can't see them on my iPhone, nor through the web app, only on my desktop app. I've set all their locations to be stored on iCloud, and refreshed all my calendars.
    What am I missing here?

    Update: I can now see them on my iPhone, but still not through iCloud on the web. Any suggestions?

  • Mobile.me Calendar does not update/sync on iPhone

    Since I did my upgrade to the new version of Mobile.me Calendar (as requested by Apple!), my iPhone no longer shows entries that I have typed into the Mobile.me Calender website. I no longer use iCal because Apple said it would not work with the new version of Calendar on Mobile.me, so I did the upgrade to stay in sync with calendars on my mobile.me site and iPhone, but the iPhone does not update. I deleted my calendar entries on my iPhone hoping that the Mobile.me would re-sync the data, but that didn't happen either. Here is my info:
    iPhone version 3.1.3(7E18)   Model MA712LL (first original iPhone)
    What else can I tell you to help me please?

    Please always post your System details when you have a question. The upgrade to the new MobileMe calendar produces different results, and different problems, with different versions of OSX.
    Snow Leopard: during the upgrade process your iCal calendars should be moved to MobileMe (this can take some time and you have to wait for it to happen). Once done, your iCal reads the calendars from MobileMe so any changes made in either place will be visible immediately. If this has not happened then this Apple Tech Note provides instructions:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3397
    Leopard: when the upgrade is completed iCal on Leopard will not be able to see the MobileMe calendars until an additional process is carried out, detailed in this Apple Tech Note:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4330
    Tiger: iCal on Tiger cannot read the MobileMe calendars, period. The only workaround is to upgrade to Leopard, or Snow Leopard if possible (Intel Mac required).

  • Calendar icon not updating - anyone else?

    My calendar app icon on the homepage of my iPhone 4 is not updating properly since I installed iOS5.
    It frequently shows yesterday's date and day, although when you open the app itself the calendar does focus correctly on today's date.
    This problem seems to only affect the icon itself, which I usually use to check the date "at a glance" on my home screen.

    I have the same issue with the 4S.
    The only way to sort it was to turn the phone off and on again.
    The strange thing is, some days it works fine!
    Would really like a fix for this.

  • Podcast channel is okay BUT subscription not updating

    Hi, I've looked into other discussions about podcast problems, but I haven't seen one like mine. HELP!
    We've received subscriber reports that their subscription stoped receiving updates.
    But the channel is (sort of) okay. Late for about a week, though.
    But when I unsubcribed to the podcast then subscribed again, it says Zero Podcasts!
    iTunes channel: https://itunes.apple.com/ph/podcast/victory-honor-god.-make-disciples./id3627049 48
    Podcast feed: http://victory.org.ph/category/podcast/feed/
    We've run the podcast in FeedValidator. It's valid.
    Please help!

    I was able to suscribe succesfully in itunes on a Mac and all the episodes show. However the Store page hasn't updated since 28 April so people using iOS (which works from the Store page) won't see the latest episodes yet. The episodes which have not updated are for 4, 5 and 6 May so it's probably a question of the Store being a little slower than usual to update. They should appear soon.
    You have several episodes posted on the same day; this can be problematic because subscribers may only automatically get the latest on the particular day. It's better to keep it to one a day if you can.

  • Calendar subscriptions not showing up in mountain lion notification centre

    Has anyone else had this problem when your calendar subscriptions are not showing up on the notification centre. Everything seems to be turned on in the preferences but I'm not seeing any of my calendar subscriptions entrys showing up in the notification centre.
    Please Help.

    I had the same problem with my calendar subscriptions and notifications disappearing after upgrading to Mountain Lion (or maybe user error around that same time). Here's how I  resolved the issue:
    In Calendar application, click "File", and select "New Calendar Subscription". Paste your calendar feed address into the "Calendar URL" box. In my case, I was re-adding my TripIt calendar feed which looked something like this:

  • Does anyone know why my 2nd gen iPod calendars will not update from my Macbook pro starting as of Oct. 20, 2012? I tried restoring to factory settings and genius's did DFR type restore....no results.

    As of Oct 20, 2012, my calendars will not load from my Macbook Pro to my iPod. Tried resetting to factory settings and installing just my work calendar... unsuccessful. Genius at my Apple store tried a DFR (?) type reset... still no calendars. All other functions of the iPod is working fine. Any suggestions?

    10.8.2.  And I have been keeping up with updates, but I thought they all involved fixes to Logic Pro and Aperture (but there may have been an update to OXS...is there any way to see when fixes were released?) The Genius's at our store were stumped and told me to contact Apple.... but without Apple care, I will be charged a fee.... and my iPod is in pristine shape. Is there a way to request Technical support for a problem they are possibly causing?

  • I upgraded to Firefox 12.0. Now, my Gmail calendar will not open in edit mode. I reverted to Explorer, and the calendar does open there. What is the remedy?

    I upgraded to Firefox 12.0. Now, when I attempt to reach my Gmail calendar, it only comes up in read-only mode. I temporarily went to Explorer. the calendar comes up in edit mode without issue. What should be my next steps to resolve this?

    Glad it worked, Thanks for posting back. It is a simple solution but often overlooked. I have often myself wasted time on looking for more complex solutions.

  • Upgraded to Mavericks - and iCloud.   Calendar will not stop 'updating' - and has not synced all entries across all devices/calendars.

    Hello Apple Support Community;
    I am looking for some help on several matters related to my upgrade to OS X Mavericks this week.   THIS issue is one related to CALENDAR.
    I believe that I have done everything (as instructed) to install, activate, and sync contacts and calendars via iCloud - immediately following my upgrade to Mavericks earlier this week.   When I opened CALENDAR for the first time - from the Dock on my computer (not the iCloud calendar) - after upgrading to Mavericks and setting up iCloud - CALENDAR provided a pop-up notification stating "Moving calendars to server account..." with a moving "candy cane" progress bar.  
    This has been "updating" for about 12 hours, now.   And while open and "updating" - it will not allow ANY other commands, scrolling, or menu options.   Additionally, I am unable to close this calendar of the Mac, unless I 'Force Quit'.   I have, in fact, executed Force Quit, and restarted the Mac.   No change... it still "updates".  
    When I open the iCloud calendar - it opens and works (mostly).   There are events on my iPhone 5 that are not on the iCloud calendar.   And there are events on the iCloud calendar that are not on my iPhone.   I have created new calendar events on each calendar account (iCloud on my Mac and iPhone 5) - and they seem to automatically update each device.   There does not seem to be any obviously rationale for the inconsistency of the calendar (iCloud and iPhone).
    Can you offer ideas for possible solutions to:
    1)  the "permanently updating" calendar from the Dock on my Mac?
    2)  ensure that all events are properly synced across all calendar accounts (and devices)?
    THANK YOU!!

    Hello Phil... I got nothing from the Apple Communities.   May have been very hard to diagnose via my description - or hard to resolve given many possible solutions.  
    The perpetually updating scroll-bar-of-death continued for about a week.
    I DID (finally) get resolution from the Genius Bar in my local Apple Store.   They deleted all prior "local" calendar back-ups and content - as I had my Calendar up on iCloud - which essentially "reset" the calendar function... and then reloaded the calendar, and then pulled in my calendar data from iCloud.  
    They twisted and tweaked a few more things that I was not able to follow (sorry I cannot offer more assistance on these other things).
    They also reloaded Mavericks.  
    Everything seems to be working well now.
    Apple Community... any more guidance for Phil - and others???
    Good luck, Phil.

  • Shared iCloud calendar events not updating on shared devices

    I had successfully set up a shared iCloud calendar with my friend which enabled us to edit and view the same calendar on our iPhones and iMacs.
    Everything was working fine until a few days ago when it stopped working. When either one of us created new events, they wouldn't show up on the other person's calendar and when they seldomly did, not even an alert popped up like it used to which the person had to go under the invitations page and accept them.
    What could possibly have gone wrong? We tried deleting the calendar then re-sharing but it stopped working very suddenly.

    Hi trenten7,
    Here is an article that goes through troubleshooting iCloud calendars, including different steps for different devices:
    iCloud: Troubleshooting iCloud Calendar
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3999
    I would start with troubleshooting the two Macs and then move on to the iPhones.
    Cheers!
