IOS 7 - iCloud calendar push not working

Ever since upgrading to iOS 7, our iCloud calendars are no longer automatically pushing onto our iPhones (iPhone 4S and iPhone 5S).
If we make a change to our iCloud calendars on the iCloud.com website or on our OS X calendar, the calendar changes won't automatically appear on our iPhones unless we MANUALLY LAUNCH the Calendar App. Once we launch the Calendar App, the iCloud calendars update perfectly within a few seconds. But we are FORCED to manually launch the calendar app first, in order to get the calendars to update.
The "Push" setting is already turned on in our "Mail, Contacts, Calendars" Settings, so that's not the problem.
Push will work okay for about 20 minutes after we manually launch the calendar app on our iPhones, but after that, it's as if the calendar app "goes to sleep" and needs to be manually woken up.
Any ideas on how to fix this?

It has been like this even since iOS 6 (mabye earlier also).
This also happens on OS X (Mountain Lion).
What makes it work again is simply to go to Settings -> iCloud and unselect calendar.
Wait 20 secounds then select calendar again.
Same procedure on OS X.
This makes the system reconnect to the calendar server.
For me it usually stops to work again after 1-2 days. Really annoying.
I think this is a problem on the iCloud-calenders-server side since it's both on iOS and OS X.

  • IOS 5 upgrade. iPhone 4.  iCloud calendar sync not working

    I set up icloud on my iphone after the upgrade and activated all the sync options.  Now when I go to calendar I only see one calendar and none of my events are there.  If I go to iCloud I see the events in the calendar.  I cannot even add a new calendar.    If I delete the iCloud account on the iphone; I can then add in new calendars.
    Anyone know why the iphone  is not syncing with the iCloud calendar.  Same issue is on my ipad too.
    Thanks.

    I had the same problem - this is how I fixed it.  My iPhone calendar entries weren't syncing to my iPad or iCloud - except for two events.  What I realized is that my default calendar on my iPhone was set to the "Calendar" which is listed as "On My iPhone".  "Work" and "Home" were listed under my iCloud account name.  So I switched my default Calendar to "Work" on my iPhone, edited my future calendar entries to "Work" from the generic iPhone "Calendar" and voila! - They all now sync with iCloud and my iPad.

  • ICloud Calendar invitations not working

    I migrated my MobileMe account to iCloud and calendar invitations are not working. When I create a calendar event and select an invitee an email is not sent to the invitee. I have tried sending invites from iCal on my MacBook Air, iPhone, and iCloud.com with no success. I tested by creating a new iCloud account using a different Apple ID and still no luck. Anyone else having this problem?

    I figured out the problem.
    icloud uses the apple id as the sender email address. But this is not allowed on many mail servers. Because if the target mail server receives a icloud invitation, they ask the mail server from sender email address, if the server who sends this email is allowed to do that. This will be done by the SPF record.
    as an example: your apple id is [email protected], now you invite one person: [email protected]
    no the email invitation will be sent from the icloud server (badger1302.apple.com) but the sender address is [email protected] now on the target side, the mail server hisdomain.com asks gmx.net, if mail server badger1302.apple.com is allowed to send email with sender address [email protected] But gmx.net doesn allow that. So most target mail server then decides to drop such emails. if email server ignore this SPF record, then the email will be acceppted.
    So to bring this running, it should be possible to configure, which email should be used to send such email invitations (good would be a @me.com address), but currently the apple id will be used and there no @me.com is allowed.
    an other solution is to use a apple id where you have control of the SPF record (if you have your own domain)
    I hope that helps

  • IOS 6 Exchange calendar invitations not working

    I like a lot the improved calendar invitations layout in iOS6, but for the life of me I can't seem to get it to work.
    The new buttons do not seem to do anything.
    My calendar is running under Exchange and I would like to know if any other users have managed to 'accept, decline or maybe' invitations on iOS6 with Exchange?
    Many thanks

    have had what I think is similar issue.... on both ipad and iphone.  Running IOS6.  Have gmail account setup through exchange connector.  IOS receives and accepts invites just fine from external devices....  If i create a new invite on the IOS device and add invitees with external email addresses, once this calendar invite is saved into the diary it doesnt trigger invites to go out to those 3rd parties... but the invite definitely is in the calendar as can also see it on mast google calendar.
    If I then go and move the timing of the invite that has been created on the IOS device (by holding down and dragging to new time) this then immediately triggers an invite (new Invitiation, not reschedule) to be sent to the external email addresses...  any further modification to timing of invite then triggers 'reschedule' calendar invites to go out - so expected behaviour.
    The issue is that IOS is not triggering the invite to go out to external parties who have been added to a newly created invite - and it only does this when the date/time of the invite is modified.
    Spent about 1.5 hrs on phone to apple support yesterday - they have now passed on to 3rd level support....
    Are others seeing the same behaviour as above?

  • TS3999 I followed all of these instructions, but still iCloud Calendar will not sync to Outlook Calendar.  Calendar entries will sync from Outlook to iCloud, but not vice versa.  What do I do now?.

    I followed all of these instructions, but still iCloud Calendar will not sync to Outlook Calendar.  Calendar entries will sync from Outlook to iCloud, but not vice versa.  What do I do now?.

    When syncing Contacts or Calendars between an iPhone, iPad, or an iPod touch and Outlook 2003, Outlook 2007, or Outlook 2010, changes that you synced to your computer may not appear in Outlook even after the sync has been completed.Try this article to see if it works for you

  • ICloud Calendar will not sync

    My Microsoft Outlook keeps coming up with an error and now y iCloud Calendar will not sync
    The error that keeps coming up is
    "Outlook cannot parse the property "TRIGGER", near line 965 (etc). The property is being ignored.".
    Please help
    Thanks
    TJOYCE  

    Any suggestions? I've found that deleting the calendar and readding it will work initially, but the calendar will eventually stop syncing and can even make Outlook unstable. I've even seen instances where the Internet Calendar Subscriptions pst has grown up to 40 GB!

  • ICloud Drive will not work on my iPad 3. Pages crashes when I try. Setting resets to off after it crashes. any suggestions?

    iCloud Drive will not work on my iPad 3. Pages crashes when I try. Settings resets to off after it crashes. any suggestions?

    From the Ipad manual - actually the same in Ipad, Ipod, Iphone --- the support site listed has frequently asked questions on Icloud drive.
    Set up iCloud Drive
    You can set up iCloud Drive using Setup Assistant when you install iOS 8, or you can set it up later in Settings. iCloud Drive is an upgrade to Documents & Data. When you upgrade to iCloud Drive, your documents are copied to iCloud Drive and become available on your devices using iCloud Drive. You won’t be able to access the documents stored in iCloud Drive on your other devices until they are also upgraded to iOS 8 or OS X Yosemite. For more information about upgrading to iCloud Drive, see support.apple.com/kb/HT6345.
    Set up iCloud Drive. Go to Settings > iCloud > iCloud Drive, turn on iCloud Drive, then follow the onscreen instructions.

  • Calendar app not working on iPhone 5

    Hi,
    My calendar does not work on my iPhone 5.  It initially only showed one of my calendars.  I turned iCloud calendars off and back on and it temporarily showed my other calendars, but they disappeared again.  Events that I enter on my calendar directly on my phone have disappeared as well.
    Anyone have this issue and found a fix for it?

    Never mind on this. I found the issue.
    I should have been configuring the Google account on the iPhone by using the "GMail" option instead of the "Exchange" option.

    SSRS 2008 R2 Calendar Control not working and report not refreshing on pressing enter in Chrome.

    SSRS reports are always best viewed in IE and the report result what you see in IE always will not be same and consistent in thirdy party browswers.
    So consider using IE as workaround.

    I have the same problem.  I called Apple this morning, they told me that they restored "half" of the people affected last night and the next update will be 11 am EST.  Very frustrating to say the least!
