IOS 7.0.2 - iPhone 5 - calendar app crashing - HELP

iOS 7.0.2 - iPhone 5 - calendar app crashing - how to fix??
I installed iOS 7 on my iPhone 5 the day it was released. No problems. After learning tips/tricks am loving it. 27 Sept 2013 rec'd notification of an update iOS 7.0.2 (bug fixes etc), and did the update. But now every day the calendar app is crashing. I open it and it closes. The only way I can get into it is to search for an event, or when an event alert comes up, hit 'view'. Other wise I can't open the Calendar. Never ever had this problem before. I've tried turning it off/on, but still crashes. I've closed all running back ground apps and did a Restart, Pressing and holding the Sleep/Wake & Home buttons for a few seconds until it shuts down, then the Apple logo appears, and restarts. Calendar still crashes. How can I fix this? Help ... I use my calendar daily.

Hello there Max,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like you have done some great troubleshooting already. What I would do next is backup and restore your phone to iTunes.

Before you restore from your backup, I would first setup the phone as a new device, then test the calendar app to make sure it works the correct way. Then restore from your backup and verify the Calendar is still working.
All the best,
Sterling

1) You asked "Does she need to reconnect to that itunes/computer and if so what do we need to do to remove this folder of pics from her ipod?" Yes, you have to connect the iPod to that computer and go to the Photos pane for the iPod in iTunes and uncheck sync photos and the click on synce/apply. In the future do not check sync photos.

2)
Create a NEW account for using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before.

Screen flickering after iOS 6.1 update and some apps crashing frequently on my iPhone 4 .. I didn't have this in 6.0.1 back when people complained about it

hello, I had no keyboard flickering issues back when my iPhone 4 was on iOS 6.0.1 then I updated to 6.1 yesterday and now I have apps crashing frequently and keyboard flickering? anyone else having the same issue after the update? any known solution?

I'm having the same issue on my iPhone 4 since yesterday when I updated to iOS 6.1 from 5.1.1.
After about an hour after the upgrade, it crashed/rebooted itself and went completely white/grey screen with a brighter white line in the middle. My power/sleep button was broke already, so I couldn't do anything on it. I left it to drain the battery for about 6 hours. During that time, the edges around the white/grey screen became darker and darker like burn-in effect. After it ran out of the battery, I connected the phone to the PC through USB and iTunes let me restore it to iOS 6.1 firmware I downloaded before.
The restore was successful, but the entire screen keeps flickering rapidly, not just a part of the screen.
Is it hardware or software related issue?? Any idea?

IPhone 4 calendar app crashes when opened

Hello, All ~
I hope that someone may be able to help me with this issue as I REALLY do not want to restore my phone!
I noticed yesterday that the calendar on my iPhone was not syncing with my Google calendar. This is new. I have never had a problem before - I could enter items on my phone and they would, through the magic of technology, appear on my Google Calendar, and vice verse. This morning, the iPhone calendar now just crashes when I try to open it. Here is what I have done to try to fix it:
double checked to make sure all my google calendars were checked and supposed to sync to the iPhone (yes)
checked the settings on the iPhone calendar (seemed all okay)
tried to sync through iTunes, but didn't have a calendar to even select
deleted my gmail account on my phone (was going to add it again, but the crash started and now the calendar on the iPhone won't even stay open)
I am not really sure when it stopped syncing, it may have been a few days or weeks (since it's summer I haven't used my calendar as much, but now that the school year is starting, it's time to get back in gear!)
If anyone has any suggestions, I would really appreciate it. I have had my phone for 1 year and LOVE it and have not had a single problem until now, especially with a native app that came installed on the phone.
Is it possible that there was some kind of bug with the 4.3.5 update?
Many thanks,
Kelly

Okay, I reset and the calendar will now come up and will sync. BUT! It still is crashing when I go to the "list" view, rather than the day or month view. Any suggestions? It did sync with my google calendar but did not pull my various calendars over in their color-codes as they were before; I will double check that setting online and see what the setting are there. But even if the color-coded calendars don't come up, as long as all the info syncs, I am happy! Thanks so much for your help!

IPhone 6 apps crashing - mapkit bug?

Hey everyone, so I have an iPhone 6, 64GB. I've been having app crashing issues with specific apps, and apple it not of much help at all. I think I may have narrowed down the problem, but wondering if anyone else is having the same issue? So far, upon search the only other major crashing issues I've seen are with 128GB iphone 6+, and that's not me. Here's a rundown of what I've experienced:
9/17/14
- BRAND NEW iPhone 6, yay, restored from a backup of my iphone 5, and everything was working perfectly, no problems.
9/26/14
- That evening while traveling, random apps started crashing.
- Facebook, Redfin, Maps, sometimes Calendar/Safari/Email, sometimes Fitbit, sometimes Myfitnesspal.
- By crashing, I mean that they close abruptly with no warning. Sometimes they will actually load initially, but then after a few actions or minutes of use, they crash (facebook, email/safari/calendar). Some apps just NEVER load (Maps, Redfin), they begin to launch and then immediately close. They appear to close, but when you double-click the home button to see which apps are running, there they sit in all their glory, but you can't actually use them: bringing them back to the front of open apps just makes them appear to "crash" again. I guess it's technically more of a display error, in that the app is technically running, but you can't see it and therefore use it.
*Side note - Coincidence this was the day the fatal/buggy iOS 8.0.1 update was released? Although I hadn't installed it yet...but weird nonetheless.
9/27/14
- Installed 8.0.1 over wi-fi (traveling and no computer), but didn't fix the crashing problem.
10/27/14
- Still been crashing all this time, life without maps and facebook is hard.
- Attempted to install 8.1 and had horrific errors. Had to wipe everything and set up as new phone, install the 8.1 update, and then restore from my last iphone 5 backup.
- App crashing has ceased, and maps and all other apps are working normally. Not happy I've lost the past 45 days of history, but at least the phone is working again and I have *most* of my stuff.
12/22/14
- Haven't had a problem since the last fix in October. Once again while traveling and literally on the plane out of town (I think maybe I'm cursed?), same crashing issues start.
- It began with Facebook, then I immediately checked maps, calendar, safari etc etc and they're all broken again. In case you didn't know, traveling in a city that you don't know without maps at your fingertips, and facebook to post your exciting updates, is not fun. Begrudgingly gritted my teeth and dealt with it until I could get home from travels and try to fix it.
1/12/15
- So I've been paying attention to this crashing thing the last few weeks and taking notes, trying to figure it out, because I actually want Apple to fix this, but I can't take it anymore.
- Started out by turning on iCloud Photo Library beta to make sure all photos/vids are stored, then also did an iCloud backup and a full iTunes backup. Also took screenshots of screen layout and other important settings.
- Called Apple Support and they (of course) told me I need to update to 8.1.2 (dreading this!), and then wipe everything, setup as a new phone, and see if it's still having the problem; then restore from this mornings backup and see if that fixes it.
- I first wiped the phone, just in case the glitch/bug is what caused my last update attempt to go awry. Then setup as new phone, then updated software, then restored from this mornings backup. Seems to be working again, and now the crashing is not happening. BUT - we all know it will start happening again at some time in the future, when the stars align or some random thing triggers that glitch that starts this whole nightmare.
WHAT I'VE GATHERED FROM THIS:
1) Apple support techs are very quick to assume it's probably a corrupt backup file, and that the only way to permanently fix it is to setup as new phone and ditch the old data. Well I'm sorry, but that's just not acceptable to me. For one, every time I've restored from a backup, it appears to fix the issue. That leads me to believe there is a bug that isn't initially a problem until something triggers it. Two, I do not pay premium $ to have an iphone so that I can be told "sorry, you just have a dud backup file, if you want your phone to work properly you need to lose all your history"...I buy the iphone because of it's ease of use, and being able to seamlessly upgrade devices. At that price point, the phone better work flawlessly, and if there's a problem they need to actually fix the problem. I didn't write the code, and I certainly didn't go into my backup and change the code. And three, I have way too much data to lose in apps, messages etc - losing that alone would be worse than dealing with this dumb glitch.
2) After looking at the Diagnostic Crash Logs, all these app crashes have something to do with the Mapkit code, and sometimes also a Vectorkit code which I'm assuming is how the phone renders the map data and displays it. I'm not a developer or coder, I don't speak that language, but I can clearly see the event is EXC_CRASH and the thread each log points to has SOMETHING to do with MapKit and sometimes Vectorkit. Being that all these apps do use apple's native maps app to display or lookup map data - it's clear to me that this seems to be the issue. In researching further, I came across this post from a developer who mentions something about it: http://thecodist.com/article/our_ios_app_crash_rate :
"1/3 of the crashes are a particular one in MapKit where Apple's tile loading code in VectorKit appears to try to update a map which has already been deallocated. I reported it in Radar but so far no idea if they are going to fix it. It appears that when a map tile load isn't delivered fast enough it can complete after the app has already removed the map view."
I'd like for them to actually fix this!

Lol what is the point of a Support Community blog if all anyone is going to tell anyone is restart/wipe their device? That's garbage.
@socialprincess1, I have THIS EXACT PROBLEM with my phone. I travel (specifically air travel) and suddenly, like clock work as we push back from the gate, all apps that utilize mapkit crash. I've reproduced this problem 4 times in the last month (I've done a lot of air travel). Facebook, Apple Maps, Weather, Weather Underground, Lyft, etc. ALL CRASH.
Apps that use the Google Maps engine, Google Maps, Uber, etc. all work fine....how ironic.
The only thing that stops the crashing is restoring the device. Now, you can backup your device while its crashing and restore from that backup and your device will start working fine again...but this doesn't fix the underlying problem that this "mapkit bug" will arise again.
My only guess at this point in the debug process is it *may* have something to do with the on-board wifi (gogo-inflight, etc.), as it is the only thing that is unique to air travel. Maybe there's a cert that its trying to install or maybe even the Fly Delta app is doing something funky with location services/mapkit. At this point I really have no idea.
I've also noticed that the location services icon (black compass mark) is on CONSTANTLY now.
I have a 128GB iPhone 6 that I restored from my iPhone 5 backup upon receiving as well.

Calendar app crashes when going to march 2013

Does anyone else experience the same problem? I can recreate it on at least two iPads (the original iPad1 [iOS 5.1.1] and the latest Retina iPad [iOS 6.0.1])
While browsing the calendar in month view and going from febraury 2013 or april 2013 to march 2013, crashes the calendar app.
I can browse march 2013 fine while in day view, week view or list view, but not in month view.
No problems on the iPhone, just on the iPad.

An obsertation: I have what appears to be an all-day event on April 1, that is a note that it is April Fools Day. However, this note is part of a holidays calendar that I subscribe to on my iPad. The holiday entries are an actual subscription, not individual entries on the calendar.
I have not had any Calendar crashes with this April 1 entry at all. As Skydiver said, it might be a DST problem, but it seemed strange that some folks are having crash problems with all day entries on 4/1 and some are not. Maybe this subscription entry doesn't count as an all day entry?? Dunno.

Calendar App crashes in Month view

I have noticed today that when I try to navigate forward through the months of the year from Feb using either page swiping or the navigation arrow > at the base of the app, the app crashes each and every time.
A reboot has not resolved this. If the view is set to week, there are no problems, and navigating backwards is fine also (Feb>Jan).
Has anyone else experienced this or can suggest a solution?
Ipad2, 32gb, approx 6gb free.
IOS 6.0.1

Musky50's suggestion worked for me too. It appears to be a clock change to summer time (the Americans change after us) and if you change all your April 1st All Day events to timed events this seems to work. If you have subscribed calendars etc you will need to uncheck these as Events in a subscribed calendar can't be changed and some are All Day. Someone somewhere else said that the update to 6.1 cured this problem. I haven't done this yet so can't say.

2013 iOS 7 Daylight Savings Time Calendar App Glitch

( iPhone 5, iOS 7, in New England USA )
When I enter an event for November 3rd that spans into November 4th, the start and end times are reversed.
Example:
I enter 11-3-13 1700 to 11-4-13 0300 (10 hour shift)
Viewing the day in the iOS Calendar app, it displays as 0300-1700 on 11-3-13.
The data is correct when I edit and view the dates and times... it just displays incorrectly.
In other calendar apps that use the iOS 7 calendar, however, it displays correctly. It also displays correctly in OS X iCal and iCloud calendar.
Not major... just not sure if this is a sign of deeper issues (DST begins on 11-3-13).

I have the same problem. Seems that my shitft that spans from Sunday March 9 7:00pm to Monday March 10 3:00am, it appears reversed (starts at 3am to 7pm same day). However if I splite the times to be self contained in the same calendard day, it's no longer shows incorrectly (all other shifts are ok..)

Calendar app crashes on iPad after adding Google account

I just loaded my Gmail account on my iPad 2. The native mail app works fine but when I try to access the native calendar app, it flashes on for a second and turns off leaving back at the home screen. I deleted the account and went back to the app and it works fine (no sync with my Gmail calendar obviously). When I re-enter my Gmail credentials the app continues to crash. Thoughts?

SOLVED!!!!
Here was the answer:
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3378314
News about the Calendar Syncing problem with iCloud!
First of all: Now it works! Yeah :-)
What I did:
1. Kill my iCloud account just on the iPhone. Not on the iMac, just on the iPhone. And I told the iPhone to kill all contacts etc. JUST on the iPhone.
2. Activate iCloud on the iPhone with my Apple-ID.
3. After about 3 Minutes all was back again! :-) Including all my calendars now! Yippieh...
That worked for me, I hope, it will help you.
Regards,
Michael

IPhone Calendar app shows no calendars after iOS4 upgrade on 3GS

I upgraded my iPhone 3GS to iOS 4.0 and now I cannot see any calendars in the built-in calendar app. My calendar is synchronized with my company Exchange server over the air and in the past I always had a button "Calendars" in the top-left corner of the calendar app on the phone, which I could use to show the calendar from the exchange server or my local calendar on the phone. That button is now gone and the entire calendar is empty.
Also, when I try to create an event, it fails with the error "Unable to Save Event - The event has no calendar set.". But again there is no more control on the screen to create an event that would let me specify which calendar it should go on.
The rest of the synchronization with the Exchange server works fine, i.e. all my contacts and email sync nicely.
I've also tried to sync with my MobileMe calendar instead, and it has the same problem - I cannot see any calendars on the phone.
I've tried to reset things by turning calendar sync off for the Exchange account, waiting a while, even rebooting the phone, and turning it back on - but to no avail.
Is there any way to reset just the calendar app? It almost looks like its internal table that lists all available calendars is bugged...

I upgraded my iPod Touch 8GB to iOS 4.0 and I was getting the identical problem to afalk42. I was trying to sync using the Microsoft Exchange option to my Google Apps personal domain account. This was flawless under OS version 3.
I tried to restore from a previous backup via iTunes but the problem was still evident.
I performed a factory restore via iTunes and then before restoring from my backup, checked that the unit was still iOS 4.0 (it was), and configured again for Exchange sync.
This worked perfectly- the 4 calendars from my Google apps account were all visible and sync'd.
I then initiated a restore from my last backup, leaving the Exchange configuration I just tested that worked configured. The unit restored, then auto-restarted as it was supposed to. When it came back it re-installed all my apps and music from iTunes as part of the post restore sync (took a fair while), but I stopped it syncing the movies I had, for the moment.
When it all came back, the Exchange settings I had set after the factory restore but before the restore from backup remained intact and still functioned.
So I am now happy it is all working, but what a pain!
Hope this helps,
Daz.

IPhone Camera App Crashed...

Hello, I was taking some pictures with the iPhone camera app when all of the sudden after taking the picture, the camera app closed and the iPhone screen showed the shutdown spinwheel for a few seconds and then returning the the unlock screen. When I reopened the picture app, the picture that I took before the crash was gone. What could have cause this crash issue? but most importantly where's the picture? is it gone or was transmitted to somewhere else (folder, camera roll, iCloud, etc.)?
Thanks for the assistance!
P.S. I am looking at the iPhone logs and see that there was a springboard crash near the time of the crash. Can a springboard crash cause the iPhone to show a shutdown spinwheel and then leave you back in the log in screen?

I am using iOS6.1.1
Can you try to load up the apples and try take some HDR photos.

Calendar app crashes when selecting save for this event only

When putting my work schedule into the calendar app, I usually put it in as a repeating event until a certain date. If I edit one of those days and hit "Save for this event only" the app will crash. It does save, but the crash is quite annoying.

I'm having a similar issue, but mine is crashing when I try to delete one occurrence of a repeating event, and when I re-open the calendar the event I'm trying to delete is still there. This only began after the 8.3 update. Eventually I just gave up and deleted it on my Macbook at home, but there's obviously a bug in the update.

Native Calendar app crash in ios7 - Please help

I successfully updated my iPhone 5 to ios7 however, the native calendar app carshes everytime I try to open it. I tried to power down and on again but still the same. Please help. What should I do?

I don't want to give the wrong advice here. Maybe Ann154 or tikibar1 can jump in to advise you on this. The calendar is present on my Galaxy S4, but it is from a different carrier.
Edited to add: I see that you have done a factory reset on your device. Have you checked the disabled apps list to see if the Calendar app shows there? This shouldn't be the case after a reset, but this is the only thing that I can think of.

How can I sync my iPad calendar app with my iPhone calendar app?

I use my iPad calendar app a lot. How can I get the info on the iPad app to sync with my iPhone (it's the same calendar app). Thanks in advance for the help.

I guess there are a few ways to do this. I make my iMac the "home" for calendar and contact info. I make sure it is current and accurate. I sync my iPhone and my iPad2 to it frequently. If I enter new calendar data on the iPhone or iPad when I get home I sync them to the iMac to be sure it is current.
We use BusyCal at home so all our Mac's are automatically synced to one another and we sync our mobile devices to the computers. So I sync my iPhone and iPad to the iMac and all of them have the same information.
We do not use Mobile Me or another other web based service for calendar syncing since we feel that give us less control and more complexity.

IOS 5 update on iPhone 4 app language problem

After iOS 5 update on iPhone 4 the language in the App Store and iTunes on the phone are in what appears to be Portuguese. I have changed this setting in my Apple ID (why did it change to that in the first place?) I also have set the phone's language setting to English and the Region Format to United States. The keyboard is set to English and is the only one. What have I missed? How can I fix this?
Originally all of the apple progams were in Portuguese, the App Store and iTunes are the only ones left.

Had to restore the phone to fix, after making sure all the possible settings everywhere were United States and English, but it worked. Still find it amazing that an update would change so many settings in so many places, especially the ones that aren't on the phone.
