IOS 4.2.1 sync calendar to new MacMini

I have a second gen iPod Touch that I just upgraded to iOS 4.2.1. I'm connected to a new Mac Mini with OS 10.9.1.
Until now, I was syncing the calender on the iPod with iOS 3.1.3 and a Mac Mini running 10.4.
Now I cannot get the calendar to sync. I do not see anything about syncing calendars in iTunes on the new MacMini.
Did the calendar sync move somewhere elese?
I can't find an online manual for iOS 4.2.1. Is there one?

See:
iTunes 11 for Mac: Sync contacts, calendars, and other info with iPod, iPhone, or iPad
It includes:
If you use OS X Mavericks v.10.9 or later, your contacts, calendars, and other info are updated on your computers and iOS devices via iCloud. For more information, see iCloud Help at icloud.com.
However yoo need iOS 5 for iCloud and a 2G only go to iOS 4.2.1
This may work

After updating my 5S to ios 8.1.2 sync calendar to outlook no longer works

After updating my 5S to ios 8.1.2 sync calendar to outlook no longer works, using iTunes 12.0.1.26.
It will sync from Outlook to the phone, but not from the phone to Outlook. This was working last week with the last version of iTunes and ios 8.1.1

Hello MEOS001,
If you are not seeing any changes being made over to your iPhone and vice versa to your computer, take a look a the article below. It will walk you through resetting the SyncServices Folder as well the Sync history. It may also be an issue with any plug ins that Outlook may have installed that may be preventing the sync.

How do I sync Calendar with new iPad mini

New iPad3 mini. No Calendar entries shown on it. How do I go about syncing it with either iPhone6 or MacBook Pro?

Hey Seattle! I used to live in Spoke-a-loo! Went from a West Coast state to an East Coast one
Go to Settings>iCloud and make sure of the following:
1.     The Apple ID showing at the top is the same one you have signed onto iCloud on your Mac and other devices
2.     The "Calendar" option is turned on
3.     That you have a Wifi or Cellular connection. If it is a cellular connection, make sure that under Settings>Cellular>Use Cellular Data For, you have "Calendar" turned on
Also, not sure what OS X you are running on the Mac, but if it is prior to Yosemite, make sure that when you hook your iPad Mini up to iTunes, and click on the Device, that on the "Summary" device Profile screen, it indicates that you are syncing your Calendar and Contacts via iCloud.
If all those check out, then go back to Settings>iCloud and scroll to the bottom of the screen and Sign Out/Delete the iCloud account (again, not sure what iOS you are running on the iPad. If it is iOS 8 then it would say Sign Out, if it is iOS 7 or earlier, it will day Delete). Provide your password when prompted, and then answer the questions to complete the Sign Out/Delete. Then sign back on to see if the Calendar info will then be pushed to your device.
Cheers,

Cannot sync Calendar to new iPhone: OutlookSyncClient.exe error

Hello. I just got my 4GB iPhone yesterday and started experiencing Calendar synchronization problems immediately. Everything else syncs fine, just not the calendar. The error I get is:
"OutlookSyncClient.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience."
I have researched and have already uninstalled iTunes, Quicktime, and Apple related software, ran a registry cleaner, made sure all iTunes folders (except playlist and music folder) were gone and reinstalled. No luck there.
I have also uninstalled Office 2007 and all Apple related software, reinstalled, no luck either.
My PC is as follows:
HP Pavilion m7650n
Windows XP Media Center Edition with SP2
Intel Core Duo 2
1.86Ghz
2GB memory
360GB hard drive
My iPhone has the latest update of 1.0.1 and I am running iTunes version 7.3.2.6, which I downloaded off of the Apple website this morning.
My calendar is a critical part of my life, I work full-time, constantly scheduling appointments with customers, and I do work on the side, so I really need this to work.
I am a PC technician so I am comfortable editing and manipulating my PC, so any and all suggestions are welcome!

I would suggest doing a PST swap to see if that helps. These are the instructions I typed up, but I use Outlooks 2003. Since you are tech savvy, you can figure them out for 2007.
Troubleshooting Outlook Sync Problems
Many iPhone users have reported problems syncing with Outlook 2003 and XP (and other versions), and the reinstall of applications is not helping. Based on what I have read and my own experience, I have a theory.
My theory is that old recurring events, possibly created in an older version of Outlook and that you've had for a while, are causing the problem. It could also be new recurring events with weird recurrences (like the 4th weekday of every month). In any case, my money is on recurring events and some sort of corruption in the PST file that iTunes is simply not handling gracefully.
Here is a simple test you can try.
Find the Outlook PST file that contains all your data.
In Outlook 2003, click on File / Data File Management. That will display where your Post Office (PST) file is. Click on "Open Folder" to open a Windows Explorer window showing the file. Then, close Outlook.
Rename the file. This will make Outlook not be able to find it. Then restart Outlook.
Outlook will complain it cannot find the file, and open a browse window asking you to find it. Don't. Just create a new one by typing a name (like temp) in the Create/Open Personal Files windows, and hit enter. This will prompt you to create a new file. At this point, simply hit OK. Outlook may quit, so restart it again.
This will start Outlook with a brand new PST file. Now create a couple of sample contacts and calendar events, and sync.
Does it work?
My guess is that it will. This could prove the sync process works, and that iTunes just doesn't like your PST file.
Next step is to go back to File / Data File Management and open the folder where your PST files are. Close Outlook and delete your temp file. Make a COPY of the original file. This is important, because working with a copy will ensure you have a backup you can go back to in case something gets messed up. Then restart Outlook.
Since you deleted the temp PST file, Outlook will again complain it can't find the file, and ask for you to create or open one. This time, rather than create a new one, open the COPY of the PST file you made.
Now, change the calendar view by clicking on View / Arrange By / Current View / Recurring Appointments. Select all the recurring appointments and delete them. Try to sync again.
Does it work? My guess is that it will. This will prove that a recurring appointment was causing the problem. You can try deleting just the yearly recurring appointments first, which I suspect are the culprit, but you can test different combinations if you like.
If none of this works, you can always delete all temp and copies of PST files and reopen your original one. You will be no worse off than when you started, but this at least gives you a chance to troubleshoot the problem. Good luck!

HT204053 cannot sync calendar on my new ipad mini. my mac and macbook use a .me account for iCloud. How can I change this?

I cannot sync calendar on new ipad mini. My mac desktop and mac book have an old .me icloud account name. Cannot change that so how do I sync?

If you had a passcode set on your iPad your data should be safe. The thief would have to force it into recovery mode and restore it in order to use it, which would completely erase it.
This shouldn't keep your daughter's device from accessing the iCloud account however. If you can no longer sign into the account on iCloud.com from your computer, contact Apple support for assistance.

Ipad no longer syncs calendar with my PC

looking for some help - my ipad does not sync with my PC. it worked yesterday - tried turning off computer and ipad still will not sync calendar events

See Pierre-Yves 1 post: https://discussions.apple.com/message/23297197#23297197
This was driving me crazy. Sync between Outlook 2007 and my iphone was working perfectly on ios 6 - I primarily sync Calendar, contacts, and notes.
Then everything went bizerk with ios 7... All of a sudden nothing was getting syncronized, but rather multiple Calendars and Contacts showed up in Outlook 2007. Disabling Calendar, contacts, and Notes in my iphone's icloud settings did the trick. Now I have ONE Calendar and ONE contact list in Outlook, fully in sync with my iphone.

Downloaded new IoS 6 at my iphone 4 and cant sync calendar, conacts etc

Downloaded new IoS 6 at my iphone 4 and cant sync calendar, conacts etc

I'm having the same problem. Although iTunes says it is syncing Calendars and Contacts the Calendars are not being synced (I haven't checked Contacts since I don't make lots of changes to them.)
It also does not appear to be backing up to my desktop (at least not each time) - I just did a sync and the backup date is over 30 minutes ago.
This is very worrisome.
(And I am not using iCloud.)

How to sync calendars and contacts between ios 3.1.3 and Mountain Lion?

I have a 1st generation iPod touch under iOS 3.1.3 and a MacBook Pro under Mountain Lion 10.8.3 with iTunes 11.0.1.
Since the upgrade to Mountain Lion syncing calendars and contacts between the iPod Touch and the Mac no longer works.
I don't want my personal information in Apple's or anybody else's Cloud and anyway iOS 3.1.3 can't use Apple's Cloud.
So I can no longer sync without a) replacing my iPod Touch which itself works perfectly well and does not need replacing and b) using Apple's Cloud which I do not wish to use for personal data.
This is a MAJOR AND DAMAGING step backwards by Apple, which they should correct IMMEDIATELY if they wish to keep their increasingly fed-up older customers.
Time-wasting work-around:
As I never trust operating system upgrades to not destroy something that "just works", I have Snow Leopard still on another bootable partition on my machine, and Lion on a bootable partition on an external Thunderbolt disc.
In order to sync, I backup Calendars and Contacts under Mountain Lion under which I do all my normal work, switch to either Snow Leopard or Lion, update iCal and Address Book from the backup files saved under Mountain Lion, sync the iPod Touch, and switch back to Mountain Lion.
Lots of time wasted with 2 successive re-boots, but at least HERE IS A SOLUTION THAT WORKS - I have seen lots of posts protesting bitterly about this totally unacceptable backwards step - what on earth do Apple hope to gain from this? More sales of newer equipment to replace perfectly functioning older ones? Certainly not from many of us.

Send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem solved sooner.

Getting replacement iphone. Will contacts, notes, texts, calendar, etc be synced to the new iphone?

The home button broke on my iphone so I am getting a replacement. I have synced the old phone but am concerned that all my contacts, notes, calendar info, etc won't be synced with the new phone. Will it be as easy as syncing with itunes with the old phone and then the new phone?

Yes, you want to backup your phone becaues it will save the following items in the backup:
Contacts* and Contact Favorites (regularly sync contacts to a computer or cloud service such as iCloud to back them up).
App Store Application data including in-app purchases (except the Application itself, its tmp and Caches folder).
Application settings, preferences, and data, including documents.
Autofill for webpages.
CalDAV and subscribed calendar accounts.
Calendar accounts.
Calendar events.
Call history.
Camera Roll (Photos, screenshots, images saved, and videos taken. Videos greater than 2 GB are backed up with iOS 4.0 and later.)
Note: For devices without a camera, Camera Roll is called Saved Photos.
Game Center account.
Home screen arrangement.
In-app purchases.
Keychain (this includes email account passwords, Wi-Fi passwords, and passwords you enter into websites and some other applications. If you encrypt the backup with iOS 4 and later, you can transfer the keychain information to the new device. With an unencrypted backup, you can restore the keychain only to the same iOS device. If you are restoring to a new device with an unencrypted backup, you will need to enter these passwords again.)
List of External Sync Sources (Mobile Me, Exchange ActiveSync).
Location service preferences for apps and websites you have allowed to use your location.
Mail accounts (mail messages are not backed up).
Managed Configurations/Profiles. When restoring a backup to a different device, all settings related to the configuration profiles will not be restored (accounts, restrictions, or anything else that can be specified through a configuration profile). Note that accounts and settings that are not associated with a configuration profile will still be restored.
Map bookmarks, recent searches, and the current location displayed in Maps.
Microsoft Exchange account configurations.
Network settings (saved Wi-Fi hotspots, VPN settings, network preferences).
Nike + iPod saved workouts and settings.
Notes.
Offline web application cache/database.
Paired Bluetooth devices (which can only be used if restored to the same phone that did the backup).
Safari bookmarks, cookies, history, offline data, and currently open pages.
Saved suggestion corrections (these are saved automatically as you reject suggested corrections).
SMS and MMS (pictures and video) messages.
Trusted hosts that have certificates that cannot be verified.
Voice memos.
Voicemail token. (This is not the voicemail password, but is used for validation when connecting. This is only restored to a phone with the same phone number on the SIM card).
Wallpapers.
Web clips.
YouTube bookmarks and history
Then when you get your replacement, you can simply restore from that backup.
Music, apps, and other synced content will just be added to the phone via a regular sync, assuming they are on your computer.

Does iOS 3.1.3 on my original iPhone sync with the new MobileMe?

Does iOS 3.1.3 on my original iPhone sync with the new MobileMe? I can't get Calendar data, but Contacts and Bookmarks seem to come through OK. What's the official word on this?

There is no new MobileMe...it's been around for about 3 years now.
Are you referring to the upcomig iCloud???

My wife and I have shared one iTunes account for 6 years. We want to create our own Apple IDs, so when we sync to our new iMac we won't see each others contacts, photos, calendar, music, etc. Is there a way to move music/apps from one ID to a new ID?

No.
One of you create a new AppleID and one use the existing AppleID.
But you can still use the items in each iTunes library.
Create separate computer logins for each of you.
This will give you each your own data. Contacts, calendars, photos, etc. (and your own iTunes library).

New Calendar Sync Issue with new iPad2

My calendar has synched flawlessly with my google calendar and Mac previously, but since adding a new iPad2 to the mix, I am having some issues.
I noted today that when I made a change on the MBP, the iPad calendar was not updated during a sync. So I checked the settings and "sync calendars" was not checked. Odd since it always synched in the past.
So I selected sync calendars and got the message that over 2000 entries would be added or modified on the MBP. I have also chosen to not sync events more than 30 days old but some of these items go back to 2006.
An example.
Event happening in April of 2008 shows no original date (whatever that means) so the modification is to add an original date of 12/31/00.
I have no clue what this is about or why the iPad sync is not working correctly.
Any advice would be much appreciated.

IOS 8.1.1 iPhone 5 won't sync calendars with MacPro

I am using an iPhone 5, iOS 8.1.1, an older MacPro with OS 10.7.5 and iTunes 12.0.1.26
Up until the past 2 weeks I had no problem syncing calendar events between the phone and computer. Now my memory become foggy, I either downloaded the latest version of iTunes or the phone's iOS and ever since I cannot sync my calendars. My music syncs fine when I make changes to the playlists.
I've chek'd thru the discussions on similar items here in the discussion group but nothing seems to help.
Anyone with suggestions or a fix?
Thanks
